Confidential Informant n�mlished the following reportconcerning the meeting o su jest organization held �,1g".1SfiI-_25,ieez. The meeting started with the eusto@ry calland opening prayer said by the preacher and repeated by "thosein the audience. Armouncement pas made that the minister waslate today, but that the members would carry on in his absenceuntil he came. Following that various persons spoke either frcmthe floor or from the stage and invariably praised Allah and hisgoo-jness. One of the speakers, a&#39;man, stated, give us freedom,justice, and equality, or give us death. If you _can&#39;t give usthat let us alone as we are determined to carry on regardless ofcost. Be careful of how you speak and how you act. Be 105$»! care-ful, as what will hurt me physically or mentally, will hurt mysister and brother.92 , B &#39;

Another speaker stated that the term "muck-muck"_ mr..&#39;1B "highpraise" and apparently is one of the usual surnames used by theMoslems. One of the male speakers gave a talk lasting forabout 35 minutes concerning the caning of the Son of Man. Hestated that the Son of Man would rise in the East and cane to

the ��eet and rill teach wisdom to the Moslems. He called the

Bible the poison book. lg

W. also known as92lQI11ck-Iiuok" apparently is the Sonof Mair who is now in the East in "the Holy City of Mecca, whichis heaven. The only heaven there is, is Mecca. This Son oi� Mancame to the wilderness of North America by himself, because hewas all powerful. He held the power of the universe in his righthand. The Son oi� Man came for the deliverance of the lost tribe

oi� Islam, and not to serve the Caucasian as the white man is thedevil. This devil has had streams of prophets who lnve been un-able to reform him, and that is why he must be killed, and weMoslems must kill him�. The devil is a snake and there are no

good devils. The white man was grafted Iran the black man, whichtook 600 years. The white man is weak and cannot do right. Therighteous nature is not within him. He is the devil. The devilhas been given power to build, but the duty oi� the Son of I-Jen is

to destroy him and give you peace and happi.ness.In a few daysAllah himself will shine in the wilderness of North America. We

have been lost in a land of ovi_ldoing by a race designed to wipeout the original black men and-women. Have patience as the Sonof Man will be hero soon. A Lioslem is one who has found peacewith Allah, and his fellow man. The Moslcms are in the war butnot of the war. The new war is to come and it will burst forth

all of a sudden. let us enjoy peace and happiness now and have

patience. q

was taken from the dark nan. The dark man is just reposaessing that whichbelongs to him. Bring your professors, your judges or the President and Iwill prove to any of them so that they cannot deny it that the �shite roan don&#39;toun one foot of the l96,9L0,000 square miles of the planet earth." H

Later in the meeting, he made the following remarks:

"Join your own kind and your own religion and save yourself fromthe wrath of Allah on America. It is Iritten in the book to receive not the

mark of the beast or his name for they that receive the mark will he destroyed.Nhat is the hark of the beast? It is the mark you see on the devil&#39;s moneyand on his uniforms. The sign or mark of the beast is the &#39;eagle.&#39; And if

you have that mark the Japanese are going to shoot at it."924

On day 9, l9h2, Gulnn Bogans, known as the apostle of nllah, wastaken intn cnstndv h Rn-I-nnu i.o&#39;an!&#39;_q_ at which time he admitt ad th-"f. h". h dU� _ I r92 :1 R

failed to register on February 16, l9L2. He refused to register whenrequested to do so, stating that it would be against the will of Allah, andthat he had already registered pith the nation of Islam in Detroit in l93l.According to Bogans, in l93l he not an individual known to him as 4- D. Fard,whom he considers as kll�h, our God. He adaised the Agents that Allah toldhim that Islam is freedom, justice, and equality for the people of lostnations, in which are included the dark people in the United States, whichhe described es the wilderness of North America. He continued that no true

member of Islam Iould register for United States Selective Service, and thathe would under no circumstances submit to or permit the Agents to register

hin.U92

Hogans advised that in audition to the Temple in iashinzton, U. C.,

there are Temples in Detroit, Milwaukee, and Chicago. The original Templeat Detroit, where Islam was founded, has, according to Bogsns, between nineand ten thousand registrants. This is possibly exaggerated, out it is believedthat there is an active membership of between fifty and one hundred. Throughinformants, it was ascertained that the leaders of the Detroit and MilwaukeeTemples arrived in hashington, D. 0., very shortly aiter Bogsns&#39; incarceration.These individuals Iere questioned by Agents, at which tin they admitted theyhad failed to register on April 27, 19b2, and when given an opportunity to doso refused to register. One of then, Sultan hohammed, is the leader of theHilwaukee Temple of Islam, 630 test Hc�inley Street, Milwaukee, Risconsin,and he claims a membership of between one hundred and one hundred fifty in

that city. The other person, Tfali Mohamed, stated that he was the leaderof the Detroit Temple. Their reel names are Sullivan Ellis and William Poole,respctively. Golan Bogsns is a blood,brother of Sullivan 5llis.q !_L_

The above information concerning the failure of- and Poole toregister on April 27, 19b2, is being presented to the United States Attorneysst hiluaukee, Wisconsin, and Detroit, Michigan, for whatever action they anydesire to take in the premises. q

The MCI is an organization composed entirely of Negroeswhich was reportedly organized around 1930 in Detroit, Michigan,The national leader and founder is ELIJAH MOHAMMED, who claims to,have been sent by Allah, the Supreme Being; to lead the Negroesout of slavery in the United States. Members fanatically followthe-alleged teachings of Allah as interpreted by MOHAMMED, and�disavow allegiance to the United States. Members pledge allegianceto .l.1haHL&#39;a.nd Islam and believe that any civil law which conflictswith uslim law should be disobeyed. The Cult teaches that membersof the dark skinned race cannot be considered citizens of the o

United States.since they are in elavery in this country and,therefore, must free themselves by destroying non�Mus1ims andChristianity in the �War of Armageddon�. For this p�rpose theCult has a military branch called the Fruit of Islam F01!, com»posed of all male, able bodied members, who participate inmilitary drill and judo training, ~

Members of the Cult also believe that they are directlyrelated to all Asiatic races and any conflict involving any Asiaticnation with a Western nation is considered part of the �War ofArmageddon� in which the Asiatic nation will be victorious.

Allah has taught thata Moslem should take no part in military service or any_fighting or anything pertaining thereto. I teach Islamllggording to what I have been told by Allah.

of destruction has been extendedthe bleck man out of the wilder-

ness of North America and in turn the black man can become the

rightful ruler of the world.

lh. The Negros should demand a state or a group ef&#39;states on the East Coast of the United States for his own to rule

and govern himself independent of the white race. f

15. The conflict between the Eastern and Westerncountries of the world is in reality a conflict between good andevil and the white race, being evil, will be destroyed.

l§.~ The earth rightfully belongs to the black man andall white devils must be exterminated along with all of thosewho serve the devil&#39;s purpose. All so-called Negroes are member;of the Asiatic race whether they realize it or not.

be _The aims, purposes, and teachings of the EST have not

changed. ELIJAH MOHAMMED, the national leader, continues torelate that the aims and purposes of the "Nation of Islam� MCI!are to separate the white race from the black race in order thatthe black race can establish a nation of their own in the United

States to rule and govern themselves independent of the whiterace. In this regard MOHAMMED continually states that the UnitevStates Government should gije the so-called Negro a state or agroup of states to rule and govern themselves and also continuesto characterize the Ration of Islam� as a vnation within a natic

The basic teachings continue to be that members of the MCI residein this country as subjects or slaves and are not citizens of theUnited States but are citizens of Asia, MOHAMMED continues to

tell the members that their forefathers were kidnaped over hOQ;;¢years ago and brought to the United States as slaves and thattheir children are still in slavery in this country. Other teachings of the MCI continue to be the eating of proper foods, moral

That is why HOHAMMED and KARRIEM have statedat the Moslem meetings that a true Mcslem registeredwith Allah, should not enter into selective service, foronce a Moelem has been regietered with Allah, it ie notnecessary for him to register again. By registering withAllah, a Hoelem becomes a citizen of heaven, which is inMecca. Allah has also said that many thousands or yearsago there were blue prints buried in Mecca of an airplaneabout one-half mile wide, and one-half mile long, whichwould travel from 350 to h00 miles per hour. This planewas completed in 1929, It took twenty years to build it.On the plane there are 1500 small planes. On each planethere ere three bombs, eech weighing 2000 pounds.

&#39;ALLAH&#39;3 WARNING T0 US

�Allah told us that the slavemasters had taught usto eat the wrong food, and that this wrong food was thecause of our sickness and short span of lite. He declaredthat He would heal us, and sit us in Heaven at once if wewould submit to Him; otherwise He would chastise us witha severe chastisement until we did submit, and that He wasable to force the whole world into submission to His will.

�CAUSE FUR THE NATION OF ISLAMTO REJOICE &#39;

If a man can rejoice over the finding of his lostor strayed animal, or a piece or silver, or a son who hadthe desire to leave his home to practice the evil habitsof strangers, how much more should Allah and the Nationof Islam rejoice over finding us who have been lost from Allah and the Nation of Islam! for £00 years and follow-ing others than our own kind?

"CHRISTIANITY

"Christianity is a religion organised and backed bythe devils for the purpose or making slaves of black man-kind.

IIFreedom, Justice, Equality; money, good homes, etc.--

these Christianity cannot give us not the Christianitythat has been taught us!.

"He Allah! said that Christianity was organized bythe white

being theaccepting

�Our

religion,

race and they placed the name of Jesus on itfounder and author to deceive black people intoit.

first step is tp give back to the white man hisChristianity, church and his names. These three

are chains of slavery that hold us in bondage to then.He are free only when we give up the above three.

"The Bible, church and Christianity have deceivedthe sobcalled Negroes. I pray to! Allah to giv_ themlife, and light of understanding. �

�DESTRUCTION or TI-[E worm: &#39;

"Allah has warned us of how He would one day!destroy the world with bombs, poison gas, and finallyfire that would consume and destroy everything or thepresent world. Not anything of it&#39; the present worldor white mankind! would be left. Those escaping thedestruction would not be allowed to take anything oi itout with them.

"Allah has! pointed out to us a dreadful lookingplane that is made like a wheel in the sky today. Itis a half-mile by a half-mile square; it is a human-built planet. I won&#39;t go into all or the details here,but it is up there and can be seen twice a week; it isno secret.! Ezekiel saw it a long time ago. It wasbuilt for the purpose of destroying the present world.Allah has also hinted at plaguing the world with rain,snow, hail and earthquakes.

"THERE CAN BE NO LOVE FOR AHENEMY �

"It is against the very nature of God, and man, andall lire, to love their enemies. Would God ask us to dothat which He Himself cannot do? He hates His enemiesso much that He tells us that He is going to destroy themin hellfire, along with those of us who follow Hieenemies.

�WHAT OUR ENEMY IS DOING

�The enemy is alert, wide~awake and ever on the jobto prevent the so-called Negroes from believing in Allahand the True Religion of Allah and His Prophets--the -Religion of Islam. The enemy is well-aware that Allahis the Beck er our Defense and Islam is the House of our

Salvation.

�HR. FARD MUHAMMAD

"Mr. Fard Muhammad God in Person! chose to sufferthree and one-half years to show his love for hispeople who have suffered.ever;30O years at the hands ofa people who by nature are evil, wicked, and have nogood in them.

�He was persecuted, sent to jail in 1932, andordered out of Detroit, Michigan, Hay 26, 1933. He cameto Chicago in the same year, arrested almost imediatelyon his arrival and placed behind prison bars.

"He submitted himself with all humbleness to hispersecutors. Each time he was arrested, he sent for methatll may see and learn the priee of TRUTH for us theso-called Negroes!

"He was able to save himself from such suffering,but how else was the scripture to be fulfilled? Wefollowed in his footsteps suffering the same persecution-

�FEAR

"Fear is the worst enemy that we the so-calledNegroes! have, but entire submission to Allah and HisMessenger will remove this fear. The white race put fearin our foreparents when they were babies, so says theWorld of Allah.

�The poor so-called! Negroes are so filled withfear of their enemy that they stoop to helping himagainst their own salvation.

&#39;Be aware of what you are Hoihg lest you be the worseloser.� If they hed,enly been taught the TRUTH, theywould act differently.

�JOHN mmqus

�Allah has taught us that our foreparents were de-ceived and brought into America by a slave-trader whosename was John Hawkins in the year 1555.

"This is being done through &#39;integrstion&#39; as it iscalled, that is, so-called �egroes and whites mixing te-gether, such as in schools, churches, and even inter-marriage with the so-called Negroes, and this the poorslaves really think that they are entering s conditioner heeven with their former slave-holders, but it willprove to be their doom.

"Today, according to God&#39;s word, we are living ina time of great separation between the blacks and whites.

�The prophesized h00 years or slavery--that we theso-called Negroes would have to serve the white] people-»ended in 1955. The so-called Negroes must now return totheir own; nothing else will solve their problem.

in Italy, which is southeast Europe. His full name wasChristopher Columbus, and the place he discovered wasNorth America, He found the Indians here, who were =exiled seventeen thousand years ago from India. They areoriginal-people.

"A. Why did we run Yacob and his made devil from theroot of civilization, over the hot desert, into the caveof West Ania, as they now call it Europe? What is the mean-&#39;ing of Eu and Rope? How long ago? What did the devil bringwith him? What kind of life did he live, and how long beforeHossa come to teach the devil of the forgotten Tricknollegy?

�Ans. � Because they had started making trouble amongthe righteous people telling lies. They accused the righteouspeople, causing them to fight and kill one another. Yacobwas an original black man, and was the father of the devil.He taught the devils to do this deviliahent. The root ofcivilization is in Arabia at the Holy City Mecca, whichmeans where wisdom and knowledge of the original man firststarted. When the planet was found, we ran the devils overthe Arabian Desert. We took from them everything exceptthe Language and made him walk every step of the way; it wastwenty-two hundred miles. He went savage and lived in thecaves of Europe. Eu means hillsides and Rope is the rope-to bind it. It was aix thousand and nineteen years ago.Hosea came two thousand years later and taught him how tolive a respectful life, how to build a home for himself andsome of the tricknollegy that Yacob taught him. Whith wasthe deviliahent, telling lies, stealing, and how to master .:the original man. Mossa was half original, a prophet which _..was predicted by the twenty-three scientists in the yearone, fifteen thousand nineteen years ago, today.

&#39;5. Why did we take Jerusalem from the devil? Howlong ago?

. "Ans. - Because one of our righteous brothers, who was g. a prophet by the name of Jesus was buried there, and he uaes&#39; his name to shield his dirty religion, which is called

Christianity, also to deceive the people so they will believe= in him. Jesus&#39; teaching was not Christianity, it was Freedom,

He could come and do trading among us and we would not kill &#39;him as quick as we would the other devils, that is whohas not gone under this ltudy. After he goes through withthis labor from thirty-rive to titty years, we permit himto wear our holy Flag, which is the Sun, Moon and Star.He must add the sword on the upper part. The sword is anemblem of Justice, and it was used by the original man inMohammed&#39;s time. Thus, it was placed on the upper part, ofthe flag so that the devils can always see it, so he will_keep in mind,that any time that he reveals the secrets. Wegive him this chance so that he could clean himself up andcome among us, His head would be taken err by the sword.The holy flag of Islam&#39;is the greatest and only flag known.The Universe is everything - Sun, Moon, and Stars. Theyare planets. Planets are something grown or made from thebeginning, and holy is something that has not been diluted,mixed, or tampered with in any form.

=10. ihy does Mohamned.and any �oslem murder the devil?What is}the duty of each.Moslem in regard to four devils?What reward does a Moslem receive by presenting the tourdevils at one time?

�Ans. - Because he is one hundred per cent wicked andwill not keep and obey the 1aws7ot Islam. His ways andactions are like a snake of the&#39;grafted type. So Mohammadlearned that he could not reform the devils, so they had tobe murdered. All �oslems will murder the devil becausethey know he is a snake and also if he be allowed to live,he would sting someone else. Each Moslem is required tobring four devils, and by bringing and presenting four at .one time his reward is a button to wear on the lapel of his-coat, also a free transportation to the Holy City Mecca tosee brother Mohamed.

The nurses law was to kill the black babies at birth bysticking a needle in the brain of the babies or feed it tosome wild beast and tell the mother that her baby was anangel baby, and that it was only taken to heaven and some daywhen the mother dies her baby would have secured her a homein heaven. But save all the brown&#39;ones and tell their mother

that she was lucky that her baby was a holy baby and sheshould take good care of her baby, educate it and that someday it would be a great men. All nurses, doctors andministers, Yacob put them under a death penalty to fail tocarry out the law as it was given to them. Also, thecremetor who would burn the black babies when the nurse

brought it to him; also death for them if they reveal thesecret. He also had other rules and laws which are notmentioned in this lesson. &#39;

"29. Tell us, why he was successful in all hisundertakings? I

�Ans. - Because the people who were his followers obeyedYacob laws. Regardless what he told them to do, they didit. If not they paid with their lives for every law they &#39;broke. Yacob did not build prison houses to imprison hispeople when one fell victim of the law; the penalty was deathand was enforced on every victim. &#39;

&#39;30. Tell us what and how the devil is made?

�Ans. - The devil is made from the original people by .grafting; by l�plrltins the germs. In the black man thereexist two germs; one a black germ and one a brown germ. Yhcob,with his law on birth control, separated the brown germs fromthe black man and grafted it into a white by destroying theblack germ. After following this process for six hundredyears, the germ became white, and weak and was no moreoriginal. Also by thinning the original blood it became weakand wicked and it is no more the same. Thus, this ii.theway Yacob made the devil. _ _.~

1&#39;

&#39;31. To make devil, what must you first do?
