DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania— A Black leader who fled America nine years ago to escape trumped-up kidnapping charges in North Carolina told the press here that he will return to the United States to clear up the charges against him and play a part in helping America's "oppressed people." ROBERT WILLIAMS, who has been living in Cuba and China , during his exile, laughed at rep o r t s that he was planning to return clandestinely. " I intend to e n t e r America quite o p e n l y and c l e a r up these two charges against me," he said. Williams " I am n o t guility of any crime. I am not a criminal and I refuse to be intimidated on the grounds that I am. These white people who are trying to frighten and oppress us cannot be allowed to get away with this."

Others who had been charged with Williams have since been acquitted. He also is charged with illegal flight. The militant leader said he is returning to the United States to take a part in the Black Power struggle rather than in the hope of leading it. Last year a group of Black militants elected him president of the Republic of New Africa. " I am going home to do whatever my people want me to and not with the intention of leading," he said. Williams would not say exactly when he will return to America, adding that he had certain business to complete first and that

Kill Reactionary In Guatemala GUATEMALA CITY — Democratic forces here recently killed reactionary leader Mario Lopez Villatoro, head of the so-called National Liberation Movement. THIS IS T H E SECOND undertaking of the revolutionary people since the assassination of an American Ambassador near the U.S. embassy there. Villatoro, a Guatemalan "Uncle Tom" who favored American business plundering Guatemala at the expense of the Guatemalan people was shot to death while traveling in his car with a body guard and his seven children. At the time of his death, he was campaigning for his party's political candidate in the 1970 presidential election. A virtual doom has been prepared for the reactionary politicians of this Central American country by the freedom-loving people of Guatemala.

Japan Divorces TOKYO—A record has been set for divorce in this Eastern island-country with a total of 86,921 couples terminating their marriages. O f f i c i a l s of the Japanese Health and Welfare Ministry said the number of divorces last year was the highest since official statistics were recorded in 1899.

Top PortugueseBusinessmen Beg Government Reforms LISBON, Portugal—Even Portugal's top henchmen can't withstand the oppressive nature of their g o v e r n m e n t which has worked to destroy thousands of Africans. In a special petition, 820 prominent businessmen requested the Portuguese Prime Minister Dr. Caetano and President Tomas to liberalize the regime. The petition, published in the liberal provincial newspaper Jornal de Fundao states that the businessmen hoped that "the exercise of civic liberties will increase. The s i g n a t o r i e s also asked for "the passing of a press law." They also requested that Portugal raise the standard of living of the poor and insure social justice for all and elections that will encourage the appearance of "new enthusiastic and dedicated values in P o r t u g u e s e public life." The document, although weakkneed in tone, indicates that modern E u r o p e ' s 'top fascist abroad' is the same at home. The current move by liberals for refon: in Portugal could also mean that Portugal, like the Unite States many years ago, is

Viet Poll Shows Black Lead Opposition toW

NEW YORK, N.Y.—The growing spectrum of political awareness among Black people, and the towering rate of Afro-American youths killed and maimed in Viet Nam, in this largely 'integrated' Army, were seen as essential reasons why 60 per cent of the U.S. Blacks polled recently, indicated that they "would favor bringing back 50,000 American troops from Viet Nam this year if there has been no settlement of the war there."

T H E LOUIS HARRIS poll recently gathered these findings after a sweeping study of U.S. citizens concerning their sentiment for or against "bringing the boys home." Anti-war sentiment was highest Black people, young people and women in that order. On the national-scale, 49 per cent of the people in the U.S. favored withdrawal; 34 per cent oppose it; and 17 per cent remained "not sure."

UN Committee on Decolonization

Finds:

'Africans Ready to Die for Freedom' By Winston Berry UN Correspondent United Nations — The UN Special Committee of 24 On Decolonization had to fight the combined opposition of Britain, Australia and the United States for approval of its visit to this year to Africa where it could hear the heartbeat of the liberation movements in Southern Africa. A summary of its meetings, which were concluded May 23 in Dar es Salaam, has justified the efforts of the Committee's majority. F I R S T L Y , the C o m m i t t e e learned that there is a danger of disillusionment with the United Nations among A f r i c a n s who have taken up the armed struggle against the white supremacy regimes in South Africa, Southern Rhodesia and Portugal. The visits of the Special Committee of 24 is the one link these African freedom fighters have with the UN, and the one indication that part of the UN is concerned with their« efforts in which they have invested their lives. More than one petitioner whom the C o m m i t t e e heard voiced this viewpoint. And members of host governments in Zambia and Tanzania summarized it. President Kaunda of Zambia declared that the Southern African crisis had entered a new phase. It was now up to the United Nations to see that resolutions already adopted were en forced. Zambia's Foreign Minister Mudenda urged the United Nations to invoke Chapter V I I of the Charter against South Africa and Portugal, meaning to apply a total boycott and diplomatic isolation to those two countries. IN A N O T H E R A R E A , the Committee exposed the existence of African "Toms" who opposed the taking up of arms for free

dom and pleaded for NATO, a Portuguese ally, to mediate a compromise. These views were openly expressed to the Committee in Kinshasa (Republic of the Congo) by representatives of the Cartel of Angolan Nationalists and one other group. According to representatives of freedom f i g h t e r s here, these splinter groups—in Angola, especially— were the result of Southern Afri-

can intelligence work and counter-propaganda in Southern Africa. However, despite these discordant, don'trmake-Massa-mad type of arguments, the voices of Frelima, the freedom fighters of Mozambique, the Popular Liberation M o v e m e n t of Angola (MPLA), the Zimbabwe (Southern Rhodesia) African People's Union, the Zimbabwe African

NEW YORK—Linus B a s s e y , secretary general of the Nigerian Students Union in the Americas, has declared that organization's s y m p a t h y for the family of Bruce Mayrock, a New York suburbanite who burned himself to death as an expression of his grief over starvation in the Nigerian region now being mis-called, "Biafra." If the Columbia University student had gotten "more objective information," Bassey said, he would not have taken this drastic step. "He died for what he did not really understand, and he has left behind those who gave him the distorted information to continue to live and propagate perverted news," Bassey added. A civil war is not unique to Nigeria, Bassey pointed out, but what is unique is the extent to which "Western individuals" are going in order "to internationalize and capitalize on every African conflict." Bassey said that while the Euro-U.S.A. elitists governments "preach egalitarian d o c t r i n e s and teach the most idealistic version of democracy," they actually adopt two, contradictory

policies towards Africa: one for the Africans and one for the European colonists. "It will be more meaningful when the world will hear that some white person has burnt h i m s e l f to death in protest against subhuman conditions of Azanians (South Africans), Zimbabweans ("Rhodesia"), Angolans, Mozambiquans and Namibians ("South-West Africa"), for if there is any genocide in Africa it is against these groups that it is occurring," Bassey pointed out. And of course, genocide is also being inflicted by the Ibo "Biafrans" who drove minority tribes in their region from their centuries old homelands and placed them in concentration camps. These are the so-called "Biafr a n s" who are photographed starving in L I F E and T I M E magazines and the like. They are not members of the elitist Ibo class which designed the secessionist movement for the sole purpose of continuing to exploit the rich farming and oil lands which belonged to the Effik, Ekoi, Ibifoio and other peoples long before the Ibos migrated into this territory.

Meanwhile, he and his Black brothers continue to account for 23 per cent of U.S. deaths in Viet Nam while they are only 10 per cent of the population. To date the Christian church has had precious little real concern about the Black soldier's situation or the horrible slaughter in Southeast Asia.

Lindsay Opposes College Plan to Teach Oppressed NEW Y O R K - t A proposed plan of die City College of New York to admit half of the incoming freshmen class from poor neighb o r h o o d s without regard to grades has been attacked by Mayor John Lindsay. T H E PLAN would greatly increase the number of African and Puerto Rican American students, those who have been systematically deprived of meaningful education. Lindsay's o p p o s i t i o n to the

plan was "liberal"—that is, it used seemingly "moral" arguments which have the effect of barring change and preserving the unjust conditions which now exist. "Having examined it (the plan to admit poor students regardless of grades)," the mayor said, " I believe it is a quota system and I am opposed to it." Lindsay's critics pointed out that the present educational system, which yields privilege to the middle class, the rich and super-rich, is also, in effect, a quota system, too. They pointed out that any selective system can be described as a quota system and that the real problem was what kind of quota (or "proportion") is aimed at. The l i b e r a t e d nations like Cuba, Algeria, the Soviet Union, People's Republic of China and others established quota systems in education, too. Under these systems, the serfs, p e a s a n t s , slum dwellers,.poor farmers and workers receive special government attention and benefits in order to correct the harm done by centuries of oppression, exploitation and deprivation. In direct contradiction to this socially planned, corrective approach to educational problems created by defunct immoral governments is Mayor Lindsay's refusal to admit and to solve the problems created by U.S. racism and class privilege.

White Power, Black

By Lonnie Kashif (Muhammad Speaks Washington Bureau) The American Nazi Party has a new mask, but it h i d e s the same old faces—pure, undiluted racism, raw white s u p r e m a c y and unmitigating hatred of the non-Aryan world.

THIS R E P O R T E R , for the third time in five years, paid a visit to the lair of these neo-nazi cuKists, and found them still churning the witch's brew of poisonous race hatred, and the warped ideology of Nazi fuehrer Adolph Hitler. But this occasion marked a difference. There were no gooses t e p p i n g "storm-troopers" to menace the reporter with stone hollow-faced stares. Unlike previous visits, when the Nazis displayed their military paraphernalia (machine guns, bayonets, and barbed wire), a nearly gentleman-like welcome was accorded. But of course, nothing had r e a l l y changed—and especially their philosophy of white Aryan world domination. And too, former "storm-trooper" o f f i c e r , Donald Parson still had an old luger pistol hanging from a surplus army gun belt, when he grinned, "Come in, good to see you again." This time the physical setting had changed ; a simple office on North Franklin Street, a few blocks from the court housequite a downdressing from the Nazi barracks-type headquarters, and the three-story hideway deep in the woods off Wilson Boulevard, of just a few years ago. The reporter stepped inside. 1

PARSON moved behind a huge mahogany desk and began dialing the phone. "It's OK; he'll see you. Next door to your right. Turn right at the top of the stairs." The reporter was to see a new-type Nazi, more crafty and cunning than the founder, Lincoln Rockwell or the new "National Leader," Mat Koehl, both of whom were interviewed a few years earlier. Rockwell was slain in 1967 by John Patler, a young Nazi party member. Koehl took over at that point, but it is now believed that the real power and authority in the movement lies in the hands of William Pierce, the Information Officer. The door, to the right at the stair-top was blank, except for a

A 7x5 foot flag, bearing a bold black swastika on a red field, draped the wall. It was similar to one in the downstairs office, which shared the wall with a portrait of the "Fuehrer" flanked by pictures of Rockwell and Koehl. "Have a seat," Pierce grinned again. He wanted to know, before being interviewed, "about MUH A M M A D SPEAKS, and the Muslims." The reporter handed him a copy of M u h a m m a d Speaks and commented politely, aware that Pierce was sizing him up, and contemplating out of which side of his mouth he was going to talk. He chose the twisted side. "WE B E L I E V E that the Aryan p e o p l e are divinely ordained. We believe that this is

yan" purity at this stage, he said, since few whites, aside from the Icelanders and Swedish pecpiu, qualify as "pure." "Seventy to eighty per cent of the American whites would be accepted by the party," he said, "as long as they accepted the philosophy (that the pure Aryan is the ideally perfected man)." "Instinctively,* the a v e r a g e white man believes in our movement," the Nazi professor asserted. He boasted that party political support could draw several times the .01 per cent of the white vote Rockwell drew in an abortive gubernatorial campaign prior to his assassination. P I E R C E a l l e d g e d that "at least 25,000 calls" are received on the party's; recorded (hate) message line each week. The recordings which are taped • by Pierce himself, amount to a verbal reincarnation of Gemany's war p r o p a g a n d a , lumping all else aside from Aryan philosophy into one p i l e — p o t e n t i a l gas chamber firewood. While Nazi p r o p a g a n d a is heavily d i r e c t e d toward the Jews, one glance through the party n e w s p a p e r , or "StormTrooper" magazine will show that Blacks are high in priority on these racist's hate list. I T T A K E S only a few moments to realize that "separation" for the Nazi is something totally different from the separation sought by either Black "revolutionists" or Muslims. Taking their political strategy from "Mein Kempt," the Nazi bible, the American facists have become masters of the "forkedtongue." While advocating race war against urban Blacks, party literature professes sympathy for Black "separationist" views. Pierce, adroitly parrying the reporters pointed questions for awhile, candidly admitted that "We are not interested in separation because we are interested in the Black man's future." Getting more to the point, Pierce declared, "Racism is our basic philosophy." He added that such a philosophy stems more from a religious motive than anything else. The "religion" of course is Nazism, and the god-in carnate was Hitler alive.

Coon, Jiggers, Shine, etc.) declared that the n a m e - c a l l i n g stage was past; that such appeals spoofing Jews and Blacks were designed to arouse white consciousness, and enlist a certain element. He implied that this element was now expandable under this new "phase," and the next one — in the interim of which comes a "race war' in all "probability." This e x p e c t e d "race war," Pierce welcomes. "This will be painful, for many of us will perish, but it will be a small sacrifice to pay," he said, vocalizing typical war-like phrases of racist fanatics. "We welcome conflict when it helps to weaken the position of the (liberals) and creates white solidarity." Pierce did not deny that the party might be actively engaged in egging on such a conflict. "We operate on a single criteria — that the action we take must result in long-term good for the white race." Resorting to the forked-tongue again, Pierce made an oblique contention that Blacks would suffer more under an assimilationist philosophy, than under the Nazi's racial arrangement.

WASHINGTON — The Pentagon's military complex—using the Viet Nam war as a rationale— continues to enclave much of its budgetary requests in hidden or indirect costs, thus adding hundreds of millions to the real expense of the war. The 1970 defense budget will add 25.4 billion to officially admitted expenses dating back to 1965, and raising the price of the conflict to $108.2 billion.

Cheap Medal For Dead Son WASHINGTONâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;The mother of a Black soldier who was killed in Viet Nam returned to the South V i e t n a m e s e U.S-puppet government two medals awarded posthumously to her son. MRS. LOUISE B . RANSOM told the counselor to the South Viet Nam Embassy that her son, Robert, 22, had died "for a government which its own people do not want." The South Vietnamese counselor, Nguyen Hoan, a c c e p t e d "with regret" the medals. Lieut. Robert C. Ransom, died in C h u l a i May 11, 1968, of wounds he received eight days earlier near Quangngai when he stepped on a land mine. His mother talked with Hoan for several minutes in the embassy's main reception room. She asserted that the South Vietnamese Government was "supp r e s s i n g the freedom of the South Vietnamese people." MR. HOAN, in a hushed voice, stammered, "You are mistaken; you are mistaken." But he offered no rebuttal. Mrs. Ransom, the mother of five more sons ages 10 to 23, said her information indicated suppression of'religious and political freedom in South Viet Nam. "We never put them in jail because they disagree with the g o v e r n m e n t , " Hoan said, but then had to admit that two South Vienamese leaders and peace advocates who had run in the recent "elections" had been jailed and are still imprisoned. Asked about the closing of

He could not reply when asked, "Since when does a free country abolish freedom of the press?" and "Only a dictatorship arbitrarily d e t e r mines what should and should not be read." Accompanying Mr. Ransom to the embassy were the Rev. Richard McSorley, professor of theology at Georgetown University, and the Rev. Philip Wheaton of Washington, director of inter-

VBh^tSr ^tjtr ' Lauds Kennedy Mercy Plea for Sirhan; Why AS It Was Not Made Earlier AN ARAB from Jerusalem, tinian displaced by Israel's miliD EYet A R S I R :Asks ^B(PJP^;-:pB:v:;;-::,: -;;pB-

'^P^P

Mr. Edward M. Kennedy's plea to save Sirhan B . Sirhan's life should not be taken as a politcal act, but accepted at its face value. There is no reason to doubt the intentions and sincerity of the Senator who, in spite of Ms tragic loss, showed great courage by refraining from indulgence in the kind of politics which, unfortunately, caused the death of his brother (Robert). K E N N E D Y ' S R E C E N T letter to the Los Angeles district attorney must have been motivated by m a n y factors. Most probably, his deep understanding of the real motives which turned the young peaceful Arab immigrant into a political killer was one Sirhan of the pimary factors. Sen. Kennedy must have followed the dramatic story, in all its details, of the man who assassinated his brother. It seems he has looked deep into Sirhan's spirit and has been moved, not only by the boy's sad life as a refugee expelled by Israel's ugly terrorism, but by the fact that the convicted P a l e s t i n i a n is known for his "wonderful manners" and his concern about "justice," "equality," "liberty" and "human dignity" for all. In brief, Sen. Kennedy could have heard or read, as it was expressed by the president of the Junior Student council of which Sirhan was a member, that the assassin was "definitely the kind of guy who would make a model citizen." IN ADDITION to all this, Sen. Kennedy himself had visited the Arab refugee camps created by America's "uneven handed" support to Israel. He also witnessed the scope and dimension of the unendurable miseries and injustices imposed on the Arabs of Palestine. However, it was obvious that the Massachusetts senator's timing of his handwritten letter was inaccurate. If he had voiced his opinion immediately after he had been requested by the state prosecutor, his unsolicited plea of mercy could have made a strong i m p a c t . Apparently, the state could have asked for life imprisonment as a punishment. Hence, with so-called evidence of premeditated murder, illegally obtained with a jury already prejudiced; with a society which fights v i o l e n c e but not its causes, with a judge who twice threatened to hogtie Sirhan in court, the young Arab had no chance to be spared and any belated plea of mercy is just In vain. The young deeply r e l i g i o u s Arab knew it when he said, while attempting to comfort Ms lawyers, that "no one, even Jesus Christ, could have saved my life."

Sirhan's occupied holy city; as an exiled Palestinian who is able to feel the noble passion that the convicted assassin possesses, as a man who believes in the cause of peace which the young Arab, wrongly, thought he could have served by his act, I would like to say to Mr. Kennedy on behalf of my country's native-born son: "Thank you for your attempt to exercise reason instead of emotion, and love instead of hate. May the God that Sirhan has always loved, bless and protect you and your family. "May Allah give you the help and strong will to continue to resist all temptations and pressures of which your brother was a victim. "You are the kind of man who could give a great service and needed change to America, as well as to the whole World. ON B E H A L F of every Pales-

It marked the most intensive ground and air assault made against any body of students on a college campus in the United States. It also significantly indicated, not only in will but in deed, the fight-back, self-defense philosophy and action being increasingly adopted by more Black collegians. The events which led up to the 3-day siege of A&T began when c i t y cops viol e n t l y clashed with s t u d e n t demonstrators from D u d l e y High S c h o o l . T h e secondary school, with an all-Black s t udent body and Black administrators, is locatJackson ed in S o u t h East G r e e n s boro, about 10 minutes driving distance from A&T. THE HIGH SCHOOL demonstrators were protesting the disqualification of a senior named Claude Barnes from running for president of the student council. Barnes is a vocal Black activist who was considered " s u b v e r sive" by the school board and powers-that-be, and a "friend" and "ally" by students and community people. After dispersing the peaceful student pickets, the city police persisted in chasing the students down the neighboring Black community's streets, and indiscriminately and massively" "spraying

gas over entire blocks. Among the new, sophisticated and offensive "riot control" equipment used were two mobile "peper fog" machines, which dispel a smoke and tear gas mixture. "It was awful," said Mrs. W. H. McLaughlin of Lincoln street, as she described the bedlam and battleground conditions that took place Wednesday, May 21 on the street in which she lives. "This woman—I don't know her name —tried to get across the street to get her children when the police came. The gas was so bad she fainted." Mrs. McLaughlin aided the fallen woman. She recalled that "children were running up the road, just trying to get away, and the policemen kept chasing them."

MRS. E . JENKINS, who saw the students followed by cops go across Lee and up L i n c o l n streets, observed that she has never seen anything like it. "Talk about brutal," she said. "Here they (the cops) came with their guns and their gas and their helmets and their billies. It was brutality if ever I saw it. "They weren't doing any more than going up the street—them cops didn't have to gas them," Mrs. Jenkins continued. "Then they (the students) tried to run into houses, and between them— anywhere to get out of the way. But the cops just kept on gassing them," she said. Besides the fleeing students, smaller children who were returning home from other schools

or playing in their backyards, and older people who were walking the street or sitting on their porches, were also victims of the nausea gas that enveloped whole blocks as the police advanced down the streets of East Greensboro. REPORTS of the manhandling and gassing spread throughout the Black community and incensed Black youths and adults took to the streets. The cops

moved in again with more gas and made arrests. THE NEWS of what was happening in town spread to the A&T campus, which is far from being isolated from the city. Some A&T students threw rocks at passing cars of whites who drove past the campus. This provided the "excuse" for cops to be dispatched to A&T. Not long after sunset Wednes-

The Black members of the group stated tha't they participated in the "Panama Project" primarily to express "the feeling of solidarity felt by Afro-Americans towards Latin-Americans and all oppressed people in the quest for self-determination." They were Paul Jones, 26, staff coordinator of the House of Umoja Black Cultural Center, Chicago; W. Philip McLaurin, 26, Portland, Ore., a graduate student at the Martin Luther King School for Social Change; and Beatrice Thomas, 26, director of the Friends Project House in Chester, Pa.

T H E OIL P R O F I T E E R S are behind the murder, as everyone knows by now. But to say that one is neutral about the war because oil monopolists are financing corrupt elites on both the Nigerian and "Biafran" sides is to take a position that completely ignores the anti-African plotting by European, European expansionist (USA, Israel, S o u t h Africa, Rhodesia, Australia, New Z e a l a n d , Canada) and some Asian and African governments. It is a sad fact that many African Americans who have the insight and courage to back the revolutionary struggle of the Palestinian p e o p l e against the Israeli government do not take an equally hard look at the problems of the peoples of south-Sahara Africa, from whom we directly originate. The P a l e s t i n i a n people are being supported by every progressive force in the Middle East —by Algeria, Iraq, the U.A.R. and every dedicated fighter for the North African and Mid-Eastern family of peoples. But ties of religion and fear of the people's growing s t r e n g t h have also forced several corrupt, counterrevolutionary and opportunist elements in the Mid-East to support the Palestinians with money and supplies. In other words, because reality is complex, there is a mixture of support.

Some African A m e r i c a n s re fuse to investigate the Nigerian war's background enough to find out that there is no historical basis for "Biafra"; that the Ibo privileged class which formed "Biafra" by invading and attacking their neighbors never thought about a "Biafran" state until French and Israeli money interests offered to give them millions if they could grab the land. By falling for the trick of using the words " B i a f r a " and "Biafrans," African Americans are being drawn into the same trap that permitted Dutch and British settlers to murder their way into a "nation" which they named "South Africa." Europeans baited this same trap when they manipulated the deaths of European Jews (often choosing to let helpless Jews die on crowded ships or be murdered in Nazi c o n c e n t r a t i o n camps) into forcing the state of "Israel" on the North African Arab peoples.

DALLAS—The increasing use of nonorganic fertilizers by farmers has resulted in nitrate poisoning of spinach which has killed infants in Germany and France, and has contaminated drinking water, e s p e c i a l l y in Southern California. In a paper presented to the 135th meeting of the American Assn. for the Advancement of Science, Barry Commoner said tests conducted at some 800 water wells in Southern California revealed that 88 of them contained a nitrogen level above safety limits set by the U.S. Public Health Service.

Nitrate fertilizers are less expensive than their organic counterparts and also produce a larger crop yield. But, said Commoner, they also are poisonous and unless something is done to stop their use, the world's population will suffer from an increased food supply instead of benefiting by it.

Black Professionals Should Heed Call Ot Messenger Muhammad for a Hospital By Dr. Leo P. X McCallum In an effort to unite the professional people of the Chicago area, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad has set forth a proposal for a Hospital on the South Side of Chicago. Think over how wonderful this proposal is! The Honorable Elijah Muhammad who in the strict sense of the word is not a member of the medical profession (but who can, I assure you, heal a "sick" nation) has issued a call for a hospital in which the Black people of the area can be cared for. It is a shame that the doctors themselves in Chicago have not put f o r t h this same effort as has this great man in t h e i r very own backy a r d.

Certainly one of the necessities of any nation is a place where one can hospitalize any people who are unfortunate enough to become ill.

World Hunger Crises Loom If Mounting Poor Not Fed "The greatest threat of these times is that the underdeveloped world's population is growing faster than its economy" which will result in a "disasterous hunger crises in the '70's." Barbara Ward (Lady Robert Jackson), noted economist and author, recently told students and faculty of Lake Forest College near Chicago. TO A V E R T this crisis, she said, " a substantial portion of funds spent by major powers on armaments must be used instead to fill the needs of the world's hungry." Speaking at a seminar sponsored by the college and the Adlai Stevenson Institute of International Affairs, she said vast numbers of persons are migrating from underdeveloped rural areas to cities, creating an unemployment rate of up to 30 per cent in some countries.

She suggested that all developed nations should devote at least half the increase in their gross national product to agricultural development and making their own cities livable. "Foreign a s s i s t a n c e , " she argued, "should be restored to one per cent of the gross national product, instead of the threetenths of one per cent the U.S. now gives." "Foreign aid should amount to at least $4 billion a year for agricultural and $6 to 8 billion for industrial and regional development," she emphasized. "No matter how much the U.S. and Russia spend on the arms race, neither side will get ahead because the open doors of science ensure a hideous parity.

TO ANSWER this need, the humble and gentle leader has initiated an extensive farm program that provides vegetables, dairy products and top quality meats for a developing grocery business complex which is also growing under his guidance. Messenger Muhammad's plans for the Black Nation of Islam have been hailed far and wide, by his followers, admirers and even skeptics. Across the earth, the name of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad is known and respected. In Cuba, the tiny but bustling i s l a n d nation at the United States' southern tip, the importance of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad's emphasis on agric u M u r a l development has not been lost.

T H E SAME SOURCE states, further: "The result of ten years of movie making makes it clear that the new Cuban cinema, born with the revolution, has served not only as narrator of the revolution but also as a protagonist." There is a scarcity of nudism in the Cuban films of today, and if there is an occasional nude scene, it is in taste. There has been such a change in Cuban film-making that a spokesman for the Institute of Cinema Art says it would be pointless to produce a film without some message of the revolution. The basic current of Cuban film-making is revolutionary; quoting the Cuban publication Granma: " I t cannot be forgotten that every shot, every sequence, every shot subject, every documentary, every newsreel has a single theme: the Cuban revolution." A F I L M C A L L E D "Ever Onward to Victory" is based on the

life of Ernesto (Che) Guevara, and epitomizes the theme of the revolution in documentary filmmaking. There are plenty of action films in Cuba today, but there is also plenty of experimentation and action. An example is the film called "Lucia," which is the story of three Cuban women named Lucia and how each of them participated in the revolution. The Cuban Institute of Cinema Art has produced 44 full or medium-length films, 204 documentaries, 77 educational films, 94 technical films, 49 animated cartoons and 435 newsreels. There are about 80 mobile projection trucks which take films to remote areas of the country where permanent movie-house facilities are not established.

African Students " The O following n e article, N i g rejected e r by the U.S.

mass media, represents the thinking of the overwhelming majority of the African peoples. Written by Africans from many different countries, this letter is an important document for several reasons. First of all, it shows that African students in this country are making their opposition to the Euro-U.S. "Biafra" conspiracy known. And at the same time, they are supporting the Nigerian people and the concept of a unified Nigeria. Secondly, the letter reflects the thinking of both the young people and the working people of Africa. Despite the Euro-U.S.'s success in bribing and dividing many African leaders into keeping African nations at the mercy of such slavemaster governments as South Africa, Rhodesia, Britain, France, Israel, Portugal, Belgium, Holland and the United States, the new breed of student and worker in Africa is dedicated to liberating and unifying their continent. Signed by IS African students from many states, the following statement is one of the first to indicate the growing unity among Africans around the cause of a United Nigeria: Fully aware of the general mood of the University community, the general consensus of opinion of the public in and around the City of Rochester, and that of the American society at large with respect to the crisis in Nigeria, We, the undersigned African students at the University of Rochester, find it absolutely necessary to declare our stand on this matter. WE A R E AWARE of the fact that material, moral, and physical support is being extended to the secessionist Eastern Region of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, a region that does not, we earnestly feel, have an independent existence of its own except as an integral part of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. We further wish to point out historical facts that may become handy to those members of the human society who may be suffering from an apparently incurable psychosis in their attitude toward other peoples of the world. History has taught us certain unforgettable lessons. Americans fought a bitter civil war to keep the United States of America a united nation. The English fought long wars with the Scots, the Welsh, and the Irish in order to create a united kingdom. The French fought losing battles in North America, mdo^hina and Algeria in the name of French Unity . . .

The London Times, which has long pushed the war as a "deadlock" demanding a United Nations cease-fire, has recently begun to blame the disunity on the Organization of African Unity, a P a n - A f r i c a n group which has consistently supported Nigeria.

This London newspaper recently editorialized: "The war is getting more dangerous than the prospect of an autonomous Ibo state. Its continuance is sowing seeds of trouble elsewhere." Here again is the heart of the plot to create another "Israel." Actually, the Nigerian realigning of states gave the Ibo tribe "an autonomous Ibo state" on its traditional lands. The boundaries drawn by the Ibos, who suddenly began to call themselves "Biafrans" two years ago, include the lands of other tribes whom the

America is Falling ... N e w World Coming In

MUHAMMAD SPEAKS

June 13, 1969

Millions of motorists on Dan Ryan Drive look up as they near South 26th Street and stare in amazement at a giant neon sign bearing the words: "MUHAMMAD S P E A K S " It is the sign of the Times. It tells the unaware that while they were sleeping, one Divinely Missioned Man had been working ceaselessly; that the prophecies of Almighty God, who came in the person of Master Fard Muhammad, are in process of fulfillment and that the humble Black man He raised in their midst (and who for decades could hardly gain their attention, regardless of wisdom and truth now has the attention of the world and the wherewithal! to maintain it. That sign, boldly ablaze over the impending modern printing establishment, (the only one of its kind in the history of the Black Man in America) sends joy through the hearts of some, shock and fear through others. But to those who are reflective and thoughtful, it tells them that when Allah Missioned Messenger Muhammad, He surely put his program into the hands of a Messenger who would not only give His people divine preachmentsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but also divine action. This is the Messenger's way of establishing for the Black man in America that independence which alone can lead to freedom, justice and equality. and courage, yet, defying bombWHY, SOME WONDER, would ers and warships and able to Muhammad's star rise so rapidly inflict crippling casualties in a and high now when It is predictwar w h i c h the world knows ed that America's star is falling?

How toEat t o byL i v e

Elijah Muhammad Messenger of Allah

Eat one good meal of food a day for good health. One meal a day or every two days could spell the end of much medicine, doctor bills, and the building of hospitals if we would only eat the proper food and eat it only when it is necessary to eat it.

There are a lot of people who think their appetite is their God; but we, by nature, have been made to control ourselves if we want to. I have much self-experience in the way of eating. I am often experimenting as I teach you, so that I will know what happens if you go contrary to the teachings of "How To Eat To Live." Eat one meal a day and eat the proper food in that meal, and do not be eating between meals (a little of this and a little of that.) I repeat, you will not be sick (only once in a great long time).

Every meal that we put in our bodies has some poison in it. And, some of our food, as I have said in this column, takes 36 hours to digest. If we do not wait until our previous meal has been digested before we add a new meal to the previous meal, we have new poison, in its full strength, to aid the dying periment.

This I have experienced. I suffered sickness a lot of times through experimenting, so that you will not come and give me the wrong answer to the teachings of "How To Eat To Live." I have selfexperimented. I will know whether you are telling me the truth or not. But, I will put my life on it; that if you make a habit of eating one meal every day or every two days and of eating the right food, you will not be sick (only one day out of a year or out of every two years) ; and some of the complaints that you have now will completely disappear. By eating one meal a day, some chronic diseases will vanish in a few years as they fail to get the poison that will keep them alive. Sometimes, they vanish within a few months, if you eat the right foods and eat only one meal a day or every two days. Try it for yourselves.

During this 91st session of the U.S. Congress, a letter of Congressman Richard D. McCarthy (Dem., New York, 40th District) was read. The letter was written to Secretary of Defense, Melvin Laird, and was in the form of several questions, some of which follow: " 1 . Is it our national policy to respond in kind to a gas attack against the nation? Do we state that we will use lethal gas against a nation that launches a gas attack against us, rather than a nuclear attack? . . . " HIS SECOND question asks, in part: " I f our gas biological warfare efforts are purely defensive in nature, what steps have been taken to defend our public from these threats?" A biting question

disease, proved so powerful and durable that to this day the island is unsafe to human beings and will probably remain so for another century. In spite of such warning, at the close of the war, American poison gas ordnance was so extensive that the stockpile exceeded that of the enemy by twice as much. Today, the various forms of biologic weaponry held in U.S. CBW arsenals include anthrax, brucellosis germs, The Plague, and such diseases as encephalitis, rabbit fever, o-fever, and even some "cocktails," concocted of various nasty germs and guaranteed to kill anything not already dead. In the March, 1968 Utah "Skull Valley Sheep Episode" U.S. military tests planes released an aerosol spray mist of several h u n d r e d gallons of " V X , " a deadH- nerve gas, and the drifting cloud caused the deaths of some 5,000 local sheep. In the words of a neighborhood sheep herder, they were "crazy in the head," after their first and last meeting with VX.

In other words, the American government is stock-piling quantities of poisons and injurious venoms without any real knowledge of their horrid consequences!

What are our plans to restore the e n v i r o n m e n t of Vietnam which has been significantly altered as a result of our defoliant policy? Will we establish a commission similar to the Atomic Bomb Casualty Commission that operated in Nagasaki and Hiroshima after the war to study and correct some of the damage that we caused?" T H E L E T T E R of Congressman McCarthy continues into fourteen pertinent and probing questions, daring response from the Executive, or Military High Command, branches of government. His seventh question inquires, "Why do we exclude incapacitating gases such as those used in combat operations in Vietnam from the chemical warfare category?" And "Are there occasions under which the gases in use are or have been lethal?" If the Army has no more knowledge of its gas and germ weaponry than it did at Skull Valley, then it must determine for its own information what the true consequences of these elements used against other human beings are. Unless it is calloused to such humane values.

Vision of Polluted U . S . Life Haunts Literature, Candidacy of Mailer's Mayorality Campaign in N.Y. By Leon R. Forrest NEW YORK — I n his current campaign for Mayor, prize winning novelist and essayist, Norman Mailer has declared that a "racial civil war is just around the corner" in this city; that the generals over at the "Pentagon are mentally inferior to criminals;" and b e c a u s e of the sprawling riddles of this city, he would seek to make it the 51st state. And he describes himself as a 'left-jwing conservative.' " M A I L E R , at 46, running for Mayor of New York for the second time, is indeed an extraordinarily interesting character, as his self-appraisal indicates. He created the book generally considered to the greatest piece of fiction to come out of the World War I I — " N a k e d and the Dead." He wrote the most intrigueing and muddled, brilliant essay entitled: "The White Negro," in the early Fifties, in which M a i l e r , among things touched at the p e r i p h e r y of growing new white conciousness, and the impact Black people had upon that consciousness, at a subconcious subterranean level. This essay and several other of the period suggested that it was the eSsay, as form, and the range of its possibilities when in imbued, and charged with the technical sweep and "room" of the novelist craft. The essays of the S i x t i e s , blend the forms of the essay and the novel into a new kind of reportage: highly subjective, and at the same time keenly observate. Essays like on the did on the Democrats c o n v e n t i o n of 1960; the 1964 Republican convention; The conventions of both parties in 1968 all showed Mailer new vision of how the essay could be stretched out to encompass a world of peripheral details and make them important to the whole. This kind of reportage reach its height in 1967, when Mailer wrote "Armies of the Night," a sourly brilliant piece on the demonstration on the pentagon, by over 100,000 Americans protesting the war in Viet Nam.

In general Mailer affirms the fact that much of American life is corrupt, and polluted by sick values. He sees hope in the white Left, and some aspects of the Black Left. This theme of corruption and pollution between the values of the old order and new, forms the bulwark of Mailer's campaign for Mayor of New York, as well. Pollution of all kinds is a major theme of the campaign, as well as the writing; the polluted relationships between the races, the polluted air we breathe; the polluted politics, and the polluted avenue of policy between the needs of the inner city and city hall. Typical of Mailer's style and his vision of the situation here is the following statement he made recently while on the stump: "Our cities are close to unoperative — heavy, sullen, dangerous as wads of oil-soaked rag, waiting for a conflagration with a

massive application of law and order to follow. That precise law and order will produce sabotage and underground movements in reaction." In his campaign, Mailer is calling for decentralization of the school in New York. "It's my belief strife can only be avoided if the average citizen begins to get some power over the major decisions that affect his life," he has declared. That essential view of life ("that experience percedes essence") is a key to Mailer's art, and his political philosophy as well. And shows through in his conception that New York is suffering from alienation; which he would attempt to heal, even though honor a kind of fierce independence, a go it alone attitude, which informs his artistic approach, as it counsels his political philosophy. And just as the human spirit is corrupt and defiled, according to

WASHINGTON — T h e Census Bureau pledges to move a little closer to reflecting the real number of Spanish-speaking people living in the United States, when the 1970 decade poll on population will be taken. The Bureau pledges to make a most comprehensive count of the Latins — according to their individual ethnic groupings. T H E CENSUS POLLS have never r e f l e c t e d an accurate count of the number of Black p e o p l e living in the United States, nor have they mirrored a true picture of the Latin-speaking community. However, since the thrust of the Black revolution and the move towards Black identity, and the increasing ethnic solidarity in the country, the Bureau now pledges a new commitment.

Mailer, the air New Yorker's breathe is "loaded" with pollution. To celebrate a better spirit, and cleanse the air, he has called for a "Sweet Sunday," when e v e r y t h i n g mechanical would stop and come to a halt in the city, already three fifths less polluted, simply because of the car ban. Because of this, the city would then be able to rest and purify itself and contemplate and celebrate the less corrupted and polluted aspects of man's nature. But how is all of this to be achieved? Mailer, says: "At this state, discussing them (reforms) would be nothing but intellectual masturbation.

Submit

To Allah,

by Elijah Muhammad Messenger of Allah The Divine Supreme Being. He is a Being, which means that he exists and is not a spook; as Christianity has blinded you to such worship as to worship that which you know not; as the Bible teaches you (Bible, John 4:22). There has never been any change in the religion of A y ah (God). It is this world's wickedness, to d e c e i v e the Righteous that changes religion. The Pope of Rome is the father of such teachings as bringing in a religion other than the religion of Allah (God), which is the entire submission to the Will of Allah (God). The white race does not do the Will of our God; they were not made to do so. So, do not think hard of them for not submitting to Allah (God), and for not believing in His religion, Islam. That is a g a i n s t their nature. However, some (few) of them, here and there, throughout the world believe by faith. And, now even the Pope of Rome's own preachers, priests and cardinals are in a spirit of rebelling against Christianity, because they know it is not true. J E S U S W A S no author of Christianity. You cannot even prove it. The Pope of Rome will not try, because he is wise. He knows what Jesus taught. It was Islam, as all of the prophets before him taught. And, how can we get around to believing in God, if we do not believe in Islam after we learn that it is entire submission to the W i l l of God. Submit to God. It is the nature of the Black People. God does not permit you to come to Him as His servant unless you submit to His Will, His Laws, and His Rules. And, if you are in His Country, he chases you out of it and puts you in jail for disobeying Him. This is the end of people having freedom to serve God in their own way. This is the most damnable teaching that could be taught to a man; to tell him to serve God in any way that he sees fit, or to preach God's Word in the way he sees fit. This is what leads the whole entire world astray from God. Submit to the Will of Allah (The Divine

Supreme Being), and see how the conditions of your life will quickly change today into better conditions. T H E W O R S E , blind teachings that is going on is from Black preachers, trying to prove Christianity and trying to prove that Jesus is the Son of God, and that he died to save the world. This is carrying the Black Man to hell faster than anything that you can teach him; that J e s u s died to save the w o r l d . This is an addition, where the translators did not make it clear whose world the God will save. It was not the world of the enemies of God. This world is destined to be destroyed, according to Jesus' prophecy and all the prophets before him. The Black Man does not belong to this world. The only Black Men who belong to this world are those who make themselves belong to this world. You must remember that the white man's world is a distinct world of his own. He is the God of this world until today, when he meets the right Owner, The Great God, Allah. The Jesus says (Bible, John 17:9) that he did not even pray for the world, that he prayed to God to take care of those whom he had converted out of the world. He did not come to the God, praying to Him to save the world; let alone to think of dying for the world. And, again in the Bible, it is written that a sinner's prayer is not even heard. And, the real sinner is the devil. And, what right do you have to preach that he died for the world when he did not even say he prayed for the world, or for you who are in love with the world that he was not in love with. He condemned the world of being a world of devils (Bible, John 8:44), and that they were the prince of this world (Bible, John 12:31, Matt. 4:9). So, the white race is not the universal rulers as god, but they were to rule for the time that they were given to rule. They were given power and wisdom to rule as god of their own world; and that is the civilization of the white man and his rule of the Black Man for the past 6,000 years. This means that the white race has conquered the air as well as the sea and land, because they have gotten out of the rotation of the earth. This means

The Filth That Produces

The Shyless

(God) they have conquered the atmosphere of the earth and has gone into airless space. Oh, foolish Brothers, you certainly do not know the scriptures and you are too proud to be taught. While your Bible teaches you (James 4:4) that he who loves this world is enmity with God. The blind preachers are leading the Black People to hell, as the Bible teaches; they all went into a Lake of Fire with their followers, believing in the devil. (Bible Rev. 19:20) As Jesus was not of the world of the white man, so are we not of the world of the white man. And, the parable that he put before you p r o p h e c i e s how God would come, searching for you to *take you out of the world of the wicked, and put you into your own world of Peace and Security. (Also, see Bible, Ez. Chapter 34). A S J E S U S prophecied of the Black preacher (Mt. 23:13, Bible), that you will not come into the Kingdom of Heaven (the religion of Islam), nor will you suffer those who are trying to come in. This is a bad scripture on the Black preacher. But, you are so blind that you do not know that it is talking about you, but it is you, and not the Jews. Bible 2 Th. 2:3, says that God will not come until the man of sin was revealed. God has risen me up among you to teach you the interpretation of the Bible, which you are rejecting. There is nothing in the prophecies that God has not taught me the understanding of. And, if I miss telling you the Truth of the explanation that He gave to me of the Bible, I will give $10,000 for every word that you can disprove or that is not true. I am not talking about the foolish among you, who want to contend and dispute without knowledge of that which he wants to contend and dispute on. R e a d the Bible thoroughly, Black preachers, and you will bear me witness that any man will be a fool to stand around and wait for the return of the Jesus, who was killed 2,000 years ago. He was nothing more than a prophet, and he has gone back to the earth, never to return, alive. Ask me questions or write me if you want to.

The Disgrace

The Punishmen'

(Holy Quran 70:6, 7, 8) Ch.70:6, "Surely they see it far off,'* 7, "And We see it nigh." 8, "The day when the heaven is as molten brass." THE H O L Y Quran, is the truest religious Book, that can be found on the planet earth. It gives guidance to the wisest philosopher and to the most ignorant savage, says, Maulani Muhammad Ali, (translator of the Holy Quran, out of the Arabic language into the English language). It is a wonderful Book. It verifies the truth of the Bible. Most of the teachings of the Holy Quran, is directed to the Last Messenger, Muhammad. It is to inform him and teach him the truth of the Resurrection of the mentally d e a d , w h o m he is commissioned to Raise. THE Resurrection of his people is the Judgment of both, the righteous and the wicked. The Holy Quran, is mostly d i r e c t e d to t h e American so-called Negro, the Lost-Found Members of their Nation. It is to acquaint them with the knowledge of the immediate Judgment and with the enemy of the righteous. THE B L A C K Man must have a thorough knowledge of the enemy (devil) and a thorough knowledge of self, for, by no means can they be directed rightly,

Hate

until they have a thorough knowledge of self, and of the devil and a thorough knowledge of Allah (God). T H E L O S T - F O U N D Black People, being reared by the devil; the devil knows them, while they do not know him. Therefore, the Holy Quran was given and taught to Muhammad, for the express purpose of saving his people from the fire of hell. IT IS, so strange now today, to see that the Black Man of America, desires not to be separated from his enemy, but desires that the enemy and themselves live together in love of each other, xs brothers, while the enemy is wise. The enemy knows that it cannot be done, but he can use their ignorant love and belief in him, to take them to hell with him. T H E R E F O R E , Allah (God) has to S t r i k e b o t h parties, the white man (devil) and the Black, blind, deaf and dumb lovers of their enemy, with a severe chastisement, in order to open their blind eyes, as he did in the parable of Jesus, of the rich man and the poor man, Lazarus (Bible Luke 16:19-25) Lazarus refused to give up begging his master for survival until Allah (God) sent a famine on the rich man. TfyG worse famine that man has ever seen is prophecied to come upon America.

Teachings

By E L I J A H MUHAMMAD Messenger of Allah The origin of hate teachings comes from the devil, who is the originator of hate. The first we read of anything like hate teachings was from God, and it was between Isaiah and Jacob (Bible, Gen.). But, the origin of that was between Adam's two sons (the devil), where the murder took place; due to the hatred of one brother against the other. One brother desired to kill the other brother so that God would not take him for an object of love. This is the same thing that is going on today. Envy and jealousy of God's Love and Blessings for the Righteous. So much so, that the wicked hopes to kill the Righteous. Hate, surely demands of sin. The devil hates Truth, because he is not made of Truth. Therefore, he calls Truth hate teachings, because the truth is against his works of evil, and it brings them, manifestly, before the eyes of the Righteous. This, he calls hate; but it is the Truth that he hates, and he is hoping that you will join him in hating the Truth as he hates it. Actually, they were made to hate Truth, though they know Truth; but their actual nature was not made of Truth. As the Jesus declared; there was

no Truth in them and that their father was not of the nature of Truth; but was of the nature of a liar, and he told the first lie (John 8:44). They were the originators of racism, not you and me. And, any race that thinks, anything of its race is a racist. We cannot love our race unless we are for that race. This is another trick that the devil is using on you. This is to make you love him and his people. He knows it is against the Will of God for you to love him. He knows that, but he deceives you. It is an intelligent person who loves his own race and wants his own race to stand out for itself, and not mix itself up with other races. This is intelligent and decent. This, the white man knows. We all are racists who have two cents worth of knowledge, because racism is only the love of your own race. But, you love other than your own race, and you want to join in and love everybody. This is your damnation, Mr. Preacher; because everybody is not to be loved. It is only the Righteous who are to be loved. If everybody is to be loved, God would not have set a Judgment for the wicked. How foolish you are. Blind to the knowledge of the scriptures for you preach your own damnation and do not know it. The Racist; and you are right.

Teachings of 1 The Holy Quran

Chap. 5:51 "O you who believe, take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends of each other. A n d whoever amongst you takes them for friends he is indeed one of them. S u r e l y Allah guides not the unjust people." 55 "Only Allah is your Friend and His Messenger and those who believe, those who keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, and they bow down. 57 "O you who believe, take not for friends those who take your religion as a mockery and a sport, from among those who were given the Book before you and the disbelievers: and keep your duty to Allah if you are believers." 60 "Say: Shall I inform you of those worse than this in retribution from Allah? They are those whom Allah has cursed and upon whom He brought His wrath and of whom He made apes and swine, and who serve the devil. These . are in a worse plight and further astray from the straight path. 67 " O Messenger, deliver that which has been revealed to thee from thy Lord; and if thou do (it) not, thou hast not delivered His message. And Allah will protect thee from men. Surely Allah guides not the disbelieving people. 79 "They forbade not one another the hateful things they did. E v i l indeed was what they did." 80 "Thou seest many of them befriending those who disbelieve. Certainly evil is that which their souls send before for them, so that Allah is displeased with them, and in chastisement will they abide. 81 "And if they believed in A l lah and the Prophet and that which is revealed to him, they would not take them for friends, but most of them are transgressors."

It is our sincere hope that the rapidly increasing p o l a r i t y of forces at the University can be nipped in the bud if an almost iniminent confrontation over the Nigerian issue is to be averted in the very near future. We uncompromisingly believe that Africans, and we wish to emphasize the term AFRICAN, reserve the fundamental human right to determine and police their own destiny in the course of history and human progress, and we also want it known that Africans will do everything humanly possible to preserve that inalienable right. We do not condone the balkanization of the African Continent nor do we subscribe to the fragmentizatlon of African society or any other society for that matter. We wish the public to know that we, the same undersigned African students here at this university, are fully convinced that the Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria has taken the correct stand, and continues to do so, in repelling imperialist

encroachments on Nigerian territory, and even more important, African soil itself, by seeking a thorough destruction of the undesirable, totally un-African, reactionary elements represented by Odumegwu Ojukwu and his bootlickers, who are the sole causes of the agony in war-torn Nigeria. We openly and resolutely declare and affirm our unreserved support for the Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in its effort, an unprecedented example on the African Continent, to repel blatant foreign aggression by armed force and thus help save Africa from being subjected to a new round of modernized, sophisticated colonial slavery.

the By Bayyinah Sharrief I never thought seriously about the importance of owning land nor of developing any land to produce the necessities of life until I lived in the Sudan during my student years at the University of Khartoum, Sudan. TO B E Black in a country which Blacks own is a wonderful feeling. The reality of possession brings the reality of responsibility, when one knows and is aware of the value of that possession. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad teaches us that we must have land to "do for ourselves," i.e., provide the necessities of our lives. AD that we see which is on the earth is either sustained by the elements of the earth or a combination of the elements of the earth. The large concrete buildings which we see here in this civilization were constructed from a combination of the elements of the earth. The material for our own clothing is either from a plant of the earth or an animal or insect which eats of the earth. The shoes which we wear are either of an animal which eats of the earth or are made from elements of the earthf

This is done yearly and has been done for many centuries. In the Western society there is so much movement and everything is done on a large scale in c o m m e r c i a l centers that one raised in a commercial area does not really value the source of the materials which are used in these centers.

Estimate 'Assembly-Line Medicine (Pan African Press) T h o u s a n d s of impoverished Black people in America are being subjected to "assembly line medicine," in some cases with a single physician seeing as many as 150 patients a day, about one every three minutes of office hours.

AN INVESTIGATION of medicaid payments in Illinois, considered typical of states across the country, has revealed that the shortage of Blacks in the medical professions has resulted in welfare medicine becoming "big business" With some physicians, dentists, optometrists and drug stores, resulting in the collection of millions of dollars a year in INVESTIGATORS h a v e con- public aid money. cluded that "Medicaid" provides The check revealed that one a grossly inadequate fee to doc- doctor in a Chicago ghetto has tors for the cave of indigent pa- collected more than $100,000 last tients, which has led to many year for caring for welfare paphysicians' refusal to treat the tients.

Pierre de Vise, a Loyola University sociologist who is heading the Chicago regional hospital study fpr the Hospital Planning Council f o r Metropolitan Chicago, said the basic problem is caused by the flight of physicians from the inner city to the more well-to-do suburb-. In addition, there is a great shortage of Black doctors in Chicago and throughout the United States. Chicago's East Garfield Park community had 212 physicians in 1930 when the community was all white. Today the same area has only 13 physicians serving some 63,000 Black people. In the near South side community of Oakland - Kenwood, 110 physicians served a population of 28,000 in 1930, when the area was all white. Now there are only five doctors serving 45,000 Black people, de Vise said. "The few private doctors and hospitals who accept these patients must p e r f o r c e convert their r o u t i n e s into production line operations that all parties agree are inadequate," he said. While eight out of 10 doctors in the Chicago are affiliated with a hospital, the majority of those in the ghettos do not have a hospital where they can admit patients. They either have to get another doctor to see the patient or send him to the County Hospital.

Bloody

By DWIGHT CASIMERE | (Pan African Press) CAIRO, 111.—0 v e r a month ago, N a t i o n a l Guard troops stormed this tiny, southern Illinois town to quell what it des c r i b e d as a "racial disturbance." AS A VISITOR coming to the area, located at the south-most tip of Illinois, where the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers converge, it was difficult to conceive of it as the battleground of a bitter Black struggle for survival. Once commonly known as 'Little Egypt,' the area had been earmarked by its earliest white occupants as a haven of prosperity. Some, after wiping out the last of the state's native Indian p o p u l a t i o n and stockading a ready supply of Black slave-labor, even staked out communities with names like 'Future City.' Now, after its lands have been wasted by floods from the two untamed rivers and poverty has ravaged the people like a disease, it has became, in the words of an inhabitant, "a cesspool of human waste, worse than Mississippi." WHEfy I arrived in Cairo, I was assured by F r . Gerald Montroy, a militant Catholic priest who publicly branded the city administration and police as organizers of the "White Hats" vigilante group terrorizing the Black community, that "things have been pretty quiet and you probably wont see much action." But within 24 hours of his statement, Cairo erupted into the beginning of a struggle that has grown in dimensions throughout the weeks.

Cairo's streets burst brick walls of Pyramid Courts became a virtual fortress for the beseiged Blacks as they returned the threatening gunfire. It was not until Blacks fired back at the vigilante snipers that a 'state of emergency was declared and National Guard troops called in. " L I S T E N B R O T H E R , " Leon Page, an organizer for the Black United Front, a c o a l i t i o n of groups sponsoring the boycott, "if Black people take up guns to defend themselves, they have every justification. "These honkeys have been killing the people for years, and guess what," he said, "they didn't have to lift a finger— they've been starving them!" Raw facts of the Cairo experience depict the type of human pillage that has gone into the creation of one of the richest states in America. Whites have fled the area in increasing numbers because of the hopelessness of the area. Within 15 years, Cairo was reduced from a town of 19,000 people to one of 9,000. Fifty-two per cent of the present population is Black.

IN RETALIATION to this successful economic strategy, vengeful bands of whites opened fire on Pyramid Courts, a government housing project containing some 1,500 Blacks.

Streptomycin Dangers Exposed WASHINGTON—The effective life of a "miracle" drug is relatively short before it begins to lose power over the infectious diseases it is designed to combat, or it begins to show adverse and dangerous side effects upon the human system. One such drug that has been touted as a miracle worker in treating tuberculosis, gonorrhea and certain other infectious diseases is streptomycin, currently in wide usage and manufactured by at least seven pharmaceutical firms. STREPTOMYCIN, which made its debut in the 1940's with the only real caution being that it may cause vertigo (dizziness), loss of hearing, or both after prolonged treatment, now has been found to be the harbinger of several other damages. The Food and Drug Administration recently informed manufacturers of the drug that they are now required to put stronger h a z a r d o u s warnings upon the product, both in labelling and promotion. In addition, the F D A is requiring that more evidence be shown that streptomycin is effective in the treatment of other types of gram - positive bacteria — like UNBORN LAMB was kept alive 55 hours in artificial womb staphylococuss and tetanus. The antibiotic has been found in tests to find treatment of respiratory diseases which are to cause irreparable eye and ear sometimes fatal in newborn infants. Experiments also were damage, and possibly damage to nerve and kidney tissues.

R i p 'Haste' To Take Heart ot Badly Injured Woman for Transplantation LONDON—The hue and cry is on in British medical and legal circles over the o u t r a g e o u s "haste" which a team of transplant surgeons evinced in extracting the heart of a badly injured student nurse who suffered brain damage in a fall from her moped (motor bike) in a road accident recently. The v i c t i m of the "quick snatch" was Miss M a r g a r e t Gladys Sinsbury, 29, who suffered what was claimed to be irreversible brain damage four days after sustaining her injury. TESTIMONY given at a coroner's i n q u e s t into the death brought to light the fact that her heart was still beating under the stimulation of a breathing machine, when two doctors decided she had no hope of recovering and promptly switched off the machine. One of the most scathing attacks against the whole business of heart snatching was made several months ago over a BBC radio program by Dr. Geoffrey Spencer. The head of the intensive care unit at St. Thomas' hospital, he referred to transplant surgeons as " a gang of vultures." He had additional comments to make following the Sinsbury incident, relating to the safeguards in such surgery. " I feel most uneasy about ft because there is no way of finding out whether proper safeguards have been taken or not. "ONE OF T H E most difficult problems is the business of 'shotgun consent.' I t is because of this that I would like to see statuatory procedures laid down for obtaining consent." His argument stemmed from the quickness with which purported permission was given for the deceased's heart to be removed. In an attempt to rationalize the murder of a defenseless human being, Dr. Christian Barnard, the South African surgeon who achieved the first successful heart transplant—of an Indian lad to an elderly white man in South Africa—declared that a VISIT MUHAMMAD'S MOSQUE OF ISLAM 1246 SOUTH MARKET CANTON, OHIO SUNDAY, 2 PJM.

was Hot necessary for the heart to have stopped beating before the b r e a t h i n g machine is switched off. H E CLAIMED the essential factor is whether the patient is dead without artificial aid, using the analogy of a man who has been hung to support his argument. "He (the hung man) is dead, but I can get his heart beating

again through shock, or restore his breathing by putting a pipe in his throat. But he will not live." The South A f r i c a n surgeon equated the heart transplant with the development of a supersonic jet in its relation to propellerdriven aircraft. He labelled it a "fantastic invention" which "given patience and time," heart transplants will be as commonplace as supersonic jets.

Black Lawyers Unite to End Courtroom By K. C.

PEORIA,

A HAPPY ENDING to a harrowing experience is mirrored in the face of Sister Catherine, pictured with her husband, Brother Terry, shortly after their recent wedding at Muhammad's Mosque, Dallas, Texas. Sister Catherine was one of 600 Black Mississippi high school graduates left stranded in Dallas and fleeced out of $200 advance tuition to a supposedly lowfee, but non-existent business school by a smooth-talking white operator. She is also one of the destitute students who made their way to the mosque, and among those who accepted the righteous teachings of Messenger Muhammad.

It is headed by E a r l Cross, president - treasurer a n d Tracy Love, vice president, both of whom are registered pharmacists. They founded the company in 1967, after having served an apprenticeship with established white firms, in order to give Black y o u t h s a chance to achieve true stability—mentally and economically—through jobs that provide a worthwhile future. Cross, 36, is a graduate of Ohio State university's college of pharmacy. Between 1956-59, he supervised the manufacturing of solutions, ointments, tablets and other pharmaceuticals at Cleveland City hospital. In 1963, he was placed in charge of research and development of human and veterinary pharmaceuticals at the Continental Pharmacal company, and lat-

er became chief analytical chemist for Product Packing, Inc., where he was reponsible for quality control, cost analyzing, and production of a line of waxes, spot removers, detergents, fabric softeners, aerosols, paints and automotive products. When Product Packing changed its name to Pro-Pak corporation in 1966, and moved to a new location, he became its chief chemist and served in that position until he formed Consul Chemicals. T H E OTHER HALF of the founding team, Love, is 34 years old and holds a B.A. degree in pharmacy from Ohio Northern university, class of '57, and is licensed to practice pharmacy in Ohio and Michigan. During a tour in the army from 1958-61, in France, he was in charge of the post pharmacy compounding and ordering pharmaceuticals—and also t a u g h t E n g l i s h and mathematics to enlisted personnel who had not received a high school diploma. Following his army service, he went to work for Gray Drug Stores, Inc., and Revco, Inc. He declined a supervisory post over an eight-chain Revco store group in Detroit, to join Cross in establishing the budding c h e m i c a l venture they operate. Present products of the firm, which are custom - packaged for other companies, include such items as an all-purpose detergent

LOS ANGELES—The family of Mrs. Russell Anderson, 2812 S. Rimpau Blvd., should by any and all standards be considered in at least the millionaire class, for it holds title to some 269 acres of land in Longview county, Texas, which rests on a veritable "lake of oil." But, since 1932, when oil was first discovered on the property, not one member of the family has been compensated for the use of the land or paid for the oil which has been extracted.

"They said very little around the family because they could see the wife (Mrs. William Anderson, her mother-in-law) and children were terrified.

Originally, 189 acres of land was purchased by George Anderson in 1901. William Anderson added 80 acres in 1911, which he had purchased for $860.

No other explanation was given to me or my family by the lawyer," Mrs. Anderson said. "This case was filed on behalf of Russell Anderson in 1964, and dismissed in January, 1965. " When asked if the attorney offered any explanation or attempted to refile or appeal the case, Mrs. Anderson said, "No, I have not been able to contact him anymore. I have not been able to secure another attorney in Texas. No one seems to want to take this case in my behalf." Asked if Atty.

Incident of court is a first step in disbarment proceedings. Tuesday, May 27, opened on a court heavily guarded by deputies, who verbally abused and terrified spectators before the hearing began. The atmosphere was so thick with deputies that Attorney Shelton Otis, one of the battery of attornies for Cockrel, referred to the court as a "military tribunal" in a plea to Sullivan to remove some of the 22

deputies (in a room built for 40 spectators) from the courtroom. Judge Sullivan complied after stating that the reason for the heavy security was to prevent any further violence as had occurred on the first day. THE F I R S T H A L F of the hearing on that day was dominated by legal arguments and constant pleas from Cockrel's attorneys about harassment and intimidation of attorneys and spectators by the deputies. The prosecution's first witness —Eric Smith, a reporter for a local television station—verified the authenticity of a film of the press conference at which the remarks were made. However, under cross-examination by Henry Ramsay, a brilliant Black attorney from San F r a n c i s c o , Smith also verified the accuracy

of Cockrel's charges. The second day ended when Smith left the stand. ON T H E THIRD D A Y , the prosecution presented its second and last witness, Douglas Glazier —a white reporter from the Detroit News who had also filed an affidavit in support of the Recorders Court. Under direct examination, Glazier t e s t i f i e d that Cockrel called Maher, " a racist monkey" and a "bandit." Cross examination r e v e a l e d that Glazier, a reporter for twenty years, could remember no more of C o c k r e l ' s statements other than the already mentioned phrases. Glazier could not remember Cockrel effing the law or the Cannon of Legal Ethics. Furthermore, it was revealed that G l a z i e r himself did not write or dictate the affidavit but that it was composed by a Recorders Court clerk, Henrietta

Rosenthal, who gave it to him to sign. Glazier's testimony proved that Recorders Court had conspired to s i l e n c e Cockrel. It also showed how the Detroit News— which r e p e a t e d l y has been charged as being racist—joined in the conspiracy. After Glazier left the stand, the defense moved to dismiss the trial because the prosecution had proved nothing more than the fact that Cockrel made the statements. By citing an overwhelming number of recent court decisions the defense showed that proof of utterance alone is not enough to convict Cockrel for contempt. The defense also asserted that the conviction of Cockrel would be a denial of his constitutional rights. Judge Sullivan is now studying previous cases while the people tensely await his decision.

resents the joint position of all African governments. T H E BLACK NATIONS most involved in this war are Tanzania and Zambia, whose territories offer sanctuary for many weary Black fighters who have put their lives on the line. Zambia, no longer dependent upon southern oil routes because of the new pipeline through Tanzania, need not restrain guerrillas from attacks on Rhodesia's oil supplies. Tanzania, maintaining a strong growing army itself is on record for supporting the "liberation" of racist-held territories by "necessary means." Despite continuous m i l i t a r y embarrassments at the hands of "inferior" Blacks, the racist regimes c o n t i n u e to mobilize. South Africa defense spending last year reached 190" million. Pretoria expects to call up 42,000 more white army reservists, plus 15,000 police r e s e r v i s t s , and eventually 51,500 so-called "home guards." A major design however is to cut off aid to the guerrillas and reduce their support from African governments. In Botswana, for instance, the governmentfearing South African intervention—convicts guerillas whom it catches for armed border violation. I n Malawi, South Africa is

buying friends by building a new capital at Lilongwe. Aid programs abound also for Lesotho and Swaziland. On the diplomatic level, South Africa now promises exchange of trade and some "cultural" delegations with Madagascar. BUT WITH PAC (Pan-Africanist Congress) operating out of Kinshasa, Zimbabwe African National Union (ZANU), the UMTA in Angola, and previously mentioned guerrilla bands, spirited by c o n t i n u o u s victories and growing numbers, little seems likely to curtail the Black revolution in Africa. Evidence of this can be seen in the growing pressure being brought by militants throughout Africa, upon the OAU m e m b e r s h i p . Presently only $750,000 has been officially allotted by the OAU for "the liberation" budget for 1969. Several African states, noted for their militant "oratory" are now being challenged by the true "fighters" — g u e r r i l l a s , on the front—to "put up, or shut up." Hardly anyone would doubt that they mean it.

In response to questions, Forman explained that the Black Manifesto, which rips the exploitation of the masses by the Christian Church, grew out of the fact that "the churches here in this country are financial entities and should be dealt with as such." He gave as an example the Jesuits, an order of the Cailholic Church, which owns 51 per cent of the Bank of America. He added that the approach for just reparations was a reasonable one in light of "the

Milwaukee Mosque Plans Black Business Bazaar MILWAUKEE — Muhammad's Mosque of Islam No. 3 here is preparing for its Fourth Annual Black Business Bazaar, designed to make Black people of this city fully aware of the ever-growing n u m b e r of independent Black businesses. "THIS BAZAAR will provide an excellent opportunity for our people to meet with the individual b u s i n e s s m e n and see for themselves that the Black merchant can provide almost everything the c o m m u n i t y needs— from the basic necessities of life to the finest of luxuries—at com-

petitive prices," said Minister Henry of Mosque No. 3. The Bazaar will be held June 10, 1969, at the Canaan Baptist A u d i t o r i u m , and will feature guest s p e a k e r s , art exhibits, business displays, musical entertainment and exotic quisine. "Our Bazaars have been very successful in the past," Minister Henry said, "and we believe they have'helped to bring about a greater understanding and better relationship between the businessmen and the community. All Black Businessmen are invited to participate."

Volunteer's Army Fought By Hershey WASHINGTON — The Director of the Selective Service, General Lewis B. Hershey, has no intention of supporting the proposal of President Nixon for an all-volunteer army, because it is his insistence that it will not work and is not the American way. Said the'75-year-old general, " I do have misgivings, as old men do, of having a person to go into

something for no other reason than to get money." He addressed a congressional testimony in explaining, "the experience, ever since 1939, on recruiting, has not been too good." "SINCE 1940 I have a schedule that shows the influence on recruiting. You can figure that about 60 days in advance of induction, when the call goes out,

if it is a big call then you will get an up in recruiting. If it is a little call, that is when recruiting slows down." The difficulty between the general and the president is that the latter is making steps to fulfill a c a m p a i g n pledge to try and achieve, once the Viet Nam War ends, a volunteer army; the old general is opposed, totally, to the idea.

Mes*^Tiger of A l l a h

June 13, 1968

Presents

%\)t iWusItm Program fiat tfje ifluslimsf iMant T h i s is the question asked most frequently by both the whites and the blacks. T h e ans w e r s to this question I shall state as simply as possible. 1. We want freedom. We want a full and complete freedom. 2. We want j u s t i c e . E q u a l justice under the l a w . We want justice applied equally to a l l , reeardless 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 A m e r i c a whose parents or grandparents were descendants from l a v e s , 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 a r e a must be fertile and m i n e r a l l y r i c h . We believe that our former slave masters are obligated to m a i n tain 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 equality, (after giving them 400 y e a r s of our sweat and blood and receiving in return some of the worst treatment h u m a n beings have ever experienced, we believe our contributions to this land and the suffering forced upon us by white A m e r i c a , justifies our demand for complete separation in a state or territory of our own. 5. We want freedom for a l l B e l i e v e r s of I s l a m now held in federal prisons. We want freedom for a l l black men and women now under death sentence in innumerable prisons in the North as well as the South. V want e v e r y black man and woman to have the freedom to accept or reject being separated from the s l a v e m a s t e r ' s children and es iblish a land of their own. W know that the above plan for the solution of the black and white conflict is the best and ' y answer to the problem between two peoi

6 We want an immediate end to the po lice brutality and mob attacks against the socalled Negro throughout the United States. We believe that the F e d e r a l 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. 7. A s long as we are not allowed to establish a state or territory of our own, we demand not only equal justice under the laws of the United States, but equal employment opportunities—NOW! We do not believe that after 400 y e a r s of free or nearly free labor, sweat and blood, which has helped A m e r i c a 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 ot the United States to exempt our people from A L L taxation as long as we are deprived of equal justice under the l a w s 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 a l l black children educated, taught and trained by their own teachers. Under such schooling system we believe we w i l l make a better nation of people. T h e United States government should provide, free, a l l necessary text b^oks and equipment, schools and college buildings. The Mi is,?«in teachers shall be left free to teach and train their people in the w a y of righteousness, decency and self respect. 10. We believe that intermarriage or race mixing should be prohibited. We want the religion of I s l a m taught without hinderance or suppression. These a r e some of the things that we, the M u s l i m s , want for our people in North America.

Elijah Muhammad

8. W E B E L I E V E in justice for a l l , whether in God or not; we believe as others, that we are due equal justice as human beings. W e 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." r

We recognize and respect A m e r i c a n citizens as independent peoples and we respect their l a w s which govern this nation. 9. W E B E L I E V E that the offer of integration is hypocritical and is made by those who acre trying to deceive the black peoples into believing that their 400-year-old open enemies of freedom, justice and equality are, all of a sudden, their "friends." F u r t h e r more, we believe that such deception is i n tended to prevent black people from realizing that the time in history has a r r i v e d for the separation from the whites of this nation. I f the white people are truthful about their professed friendship toward the socalled Negro, they can prove it by dividing up A m e r i c a with their slaves. We do not believe that A m e r i c a w i l l ever be able to furnish enough jobs for her own millions of unemployed, in addition to jobs for the 20.000,000 black people as well.

1 W E B E L I E V E in the One God Whose prop Name is A l l a h . 2 W E B E L I E V E in the Holy Qur-an and in th, criptures of a l l the Prophets of God. 3 W E B E L I E V E in the truth of the Bible, but vt believe that it has been tampered with and r ist be reinterpreted so that mankind w i l l n.-t be snared by the falsehoods that have been ded to it.

F u r t h e r m o r e , 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 fitting this description in these last days more than the so-called Negroes in A m e r i c a . We believe in the resurrection of the righteous. 6. W E B E L I E V E in the judgement; we believe this first judgement w i l l take place as God revealed, in A m e r i c a . . .

7. W E B E L I E V E this is the time in his 4. W E B E L I E V E in A l l a h ' s Prophets and tory for the separation of the so-called Negroes and the so-called white A m e r i c a n s . We the S c r i p t u r e s they brought to the people. believe the black man should be freed in name as well as in fact. B y this we mean that 5. W E B E L I E V E in the resurrection of he should be freed from the names imposed the dead—not in p h y s i c a l resurrection—but in upon h i m by h i s former slave masters. mental resurrection. We believe that the so-_ Names which identified h i m as being the called Negroes are most in need of mental slave master's slave. We believe that if w c are free indeed, we should go in our own peoresurrection; therefore, they w i l l be resur ple's names—the black peoples of the earth. rected first.

10. W E B E L I E V E that we who declared ourselves to be righteous M u s l i m s , should not participate in w a r s which take the lives of humans. We do not believe this nation should force us to take part in such w a r s , for we have nothing to gain from it unless A m e r i c a agrees to give us the necessary territory wherein we m a y have something to fight for. 11. W E B E L I E V E our women should be respected and protected as the women of other nationalities are respected and protected. 12. W E B E L I E V E that Allah (God) appeared in the Person of Master W. F a r d Muh a m m a d , J u l y , 1930; the long-awaited " M e s s i a h " of the Christians and the " M a h d i " of the M u s l i m s . We believe further and lastly that Allah i^ «cid and 1 " I I M there is no God and He will brin? about a universal government of pe ><:e wherein w c a l l can live in peace together.
