"I was born in Sinderville, Georgia in the year 1397. I have
never known the exact diy or month of m birth because my mother
was not eble to remember it. my grsndp1rents_norked as slaves
for 1 white family by the name of Poole nezr tsnderville, Georgie,
and in my early life I was known as Elijih Poole. 1 ittended
school it Cordele, Georgia but went only through the fourth
grade. Ifter leaving school I worked on my £ither's Ierm until
lqlq. In 1919 I was married to Clira Evans it Cordele, Georgia.
From 1919 to 1923 I worked on 1 section gang for the Georgia and
Southern Railroad at Dacon, eorgia.q
In 1923 my wife and our two children went to Detroit, hichigan
and from that year on, to 1929, I worked for various companies
in that city, including the Detroit Copper Company, the lmericzn
Nut Company, Briggs Body and the Chevrolet txle Comoany. In the
litter pirt of 1929, due to the depression, I was out of work but
remained in Detroit. .round the year 1930 while in Detroit I-
heerd of 3 religion lled Islam which was being taught by 1
man named L. Halls ard, Mohammad, who is Lllih. Lllah conducted

Confidential Informant nmlished the following report
concerning the meeting o su jest organization held ,1g".1SfiI-_25,
ieez. The meeting started with the eusto@ry call
and opening prayer said by the preacher and repeated by "those
in the audience. Armouncement pas made that the minister was
late today, but that the members would carry on in his absence
until he came. Following that various persons spoke either frcm
the floor or from the stage and invariably praised Allah and his
goo-jness. One of the speakers, a'man, stated, give us freedom,
justice, and equality, or give us death. If you _can't give us
that let us alone as we are determined to carry on regardless of
cost. Be careful of how you speak and how you act. Be 105$»! care-
ful, as what will hurt me physically or mentally, will hurt my
sister and brother.92 , B '
Another speaker stated that the term "muck-muck"_ mr..'1B "high
praise" and apparently is one of the usual surnames used by the
Moslems. One of the male speakers gave a talk lasting for
about 35 minutes concerning the caning of the Son of Man. He
stated 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 Son
of Mair who is now in the East in "the Holy City of Mecca, which
is heaven. The only heaven there is, is Mecca. This Son oi Man
came to the wilderness of North America by himself, because he
was all powerful. He held the power of the universe in his right
hand. 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 the
devil. This devil has had streams of prophets who lnve been un-
able to reform him, and that is why he must be killed, and we
Moslems must kill him. The devil is a snake and there are no
good devils. The white man was grafted Iran the black man, which
took 600 years. The white man is weak and cannot do right. The
righteous nature is not within him. He is the devil. The devil
has 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 days
Allah himself will shine in the wilderness of North America. We
have been lost in a land of ovi_ldoing by a race designed to wipe
out the original black men and-women. Have patience as the Son
of Man will be hero soon. A Lioslem is one who has found peace
with Allah, and his fellow man. The Moslcms are in the war but
not 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

devils don't own one inch of the earth. Zvery'oit of the land the devils own
was taken from the dark nan. The dark man is just reposaessing that which
belongs to him. Bring your professors, your judges or the President and I
will prove to any of them so that they cannot deny it that the shite roan don't

Later in the meeting, he made the following remarks:
"Join your own kind and your own religion and save yourself from
the 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's money
and on his uniforms. The sign or mark of the beast is the 'eagle.' 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, was
taken intn cnstndv h Rn-I-nnu i.o'an!'_q_ at which time he admitt ad th-"f. h". h d U _ I r92 :1 R
failed to register on February 16, l9L2. He refused to register when
requested to do so, stating that it would be against the will of Allah, and
that 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 kllh, our God. He adaised the Agents that Allah told
him that Islam is freedom, justice, and equality for the people of lost
nations, in which are included the dark people in the United States, which
he described es the wilderness of North America. He continued that no true
member of Islam Iould register for United States Selective Service, and that
he 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 Temple
at Detroit, where Islam was founded, has, according to Bogsns, between nine
and ten thousand registrants. This is possibly exaggerated, out it is believed
that there is an active membership of between fifty and one hundred. Through
informants, it was ascertained that the leaders of the Detroit and Milwaukee
Temples arrived in hashington, D. 0., very shortly aiter Bogsns' incarceration.
These individuals Iere questioned by Agents, at which tin they admitted they
had failed to register on April 27, 19b2, and when given an opportunity to do
so refused to register. One of then, Sultan hohammed, is the leader of the
Hilwaukee Temple of Islam, 630 test Hcinley 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 leader
of the Detroit Temple. Their reel names are Sullivan Ellis and William Poole,
respctively. Golan Bogsns is a blood,brother of Sullivan 5llis.q !_L_
do/YThe above information concerning the failure of- and Poole to
register on April 27, 19b2, is being presented to the United States Attorneys
st hiluaukee, Wisconsin, and Detroit, Michigan, for whatever action they any
desire to take in the premises. q

The MCI is an organization composed entirely of Negroes
which 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 Negroes
out of slavery in the United States. Members fanatically follow
the-alleged teachings of Allah as interpreted by MOHAMMED, and
disavow allegiance to the United States. Members pledge allegianceto .l.1haHL'a.nd Islam and believe that any civil law which conflicts
with uslim law should be disobeyed. The Cult teaches that members
of 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 nonMus1ims and
Christianity in the War of Armageddon. For this prpose the
Cult has a military branch called the Fruit of Islam F01!, com»
posed of all male, able bodied members, who participate in
military drill and judo training, ~a
Members of the Cult also believe that they are directly
related to all Asiatic races and any conflict involving any Asiatic
nation with a Western nation is considered part of the War of
Armageddon in which the Asiatic nation will be victorious.

I was horn in Sanderville, Georgia in the year
189?. "I have never known the exact day or month of my
birth because my mother was not able to remember it.
My grandparents worked as slaves for a white family by
the name of Poole near Sanderville, Georgia, and in my
early life I was known as Elijah Poole. I attended
school at Cordele, Georgia but went only through the
fourth grade, After leaving school I worked on my father's
farm until 1919. In 1919 I was married to Clara Evans

usually had about 700 or 800 persons at these meetings.
These meetings were held at various halls in the city ef
. Detroit, the last of them being located at BHOB Hastings
Street. Ihe capacity oi thie hall was about hOO people
so there were two meetings held to accomodate the _
overflow. I attended one or these meetings some time

Allah came to my home in Detroit and taught'me about
his religion and Islam. For approximately nine months
after this visit Allah came to my house almost daily
and taught me about Islam and then continued coming to
my home less frequently for a period or 15 months
thereafter until May 26, 1933 when the Detroit Police
Department forced him to leave the city.
I remained in Detroit and continued teaching
Islam at various meetings from 1933 to September of 193H

From 1929 to the present I have had no regular job
of any kind. Occasionally I would do odd jobs for one
day or soduring this period. However, for the most
part for the last ll years, my family and myself have
been taken care of financially by the Moslems. From
1931 to 1935 I taught Islam in Detroit and Chicago.
From 1935 to the present, I have traveled extensively
and have lived for various periods in the following
cities: Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Boston, Providence,
Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, Cincinnati,and Atlanta. During this thme my family remained in
Chicago and they and myself were supported by voluntary
contributions from the hosleme. The monies which I
received all came from the members of the Moslem Temple
in Chicago. During the time I have travgled about I.
engaged in no activities other than the study of religion
and I was also endeavoring to avoid unknown individuals
who I understood were trying to take my lire. I also
visited Moslem Temples in Philadelphia, Newark, Hartford,

so they will be respected by
of the earth. In their present
cannot be honored and respected
by intelligent people. Islam desires to eliminate pros-

they can be respected. All dark people are Hoslems whether
they realize it or not. Allah came to teach Islamfand
take away our slave names and give us free names of the
nation of Islam. Prior to

the Moslems a card which he
must always carry with him and which identified him as
a righteous Moslem. There were approximately 35,000 of
. these cards issued by Allah and although numerous applica-
tions have been made for such cards since 193k. R0
additional cards have been issued because Allah is the
only one who can issue them.
All Moslems who have applied for their registra-
tion cards but have not received same are referred to
jby their first names plus the letter |X' or double X
or triple X. In connection with this matter of registra-
tion, I desire to state that I have not registered under
the Selective Service Act of 19hO as amended. I realise
that failure by me to register constitutes a violation
of Federal Law but the reason I did not register ii that
in 1931 Allah told me I was registered as a Moslem and
belonged to him. At this time Allah also told me that

"he did not want"ma to associate in any way with fighting
or military service. Allah has told all Moslems that
they should remain righteous and not engage in fighting
or military service of any kind. Allah has taught that
a Moslem should take no part in military service or any
_fighting or anything pertaining thereto. I teach Islam
llggording to what I have been told by Allah. Allah gave ,
to all or us of registered Moslem names this teaching
himself when he gave out the identification cards with
our holy name on, that you shall not take any part in
fighting or anything pertaining to fighting. This also
applied to prostitution and ill kinda of gambling. I
have reminded the registered Moslems of the instructions
of Allah that they should do no fighting or take part
in it, that they should live clean lives and in peace.
The registered Moslems already have been taught this by
Allah. _
Allah has taught that blueprints of a plane
carried bombs, was given to the Japanese from the
city of Mecca, and that these blueprints had beenwhich
Holy
there
for thousands of years. These bombs would go into the
earth for at least a mile and would throw up earth to
a distance of one mile, so that it would make a mountain.

From 1955 through 1956 the following teachings of tn.
' MCI were espoused in speeches of ELIJAH MOHAMMED and officials

l. eThe white man uses Christianity to further his
influence over the Negro.

will regain his position of supremacy in the world. L
~ 3. Any persons who refuse to accept the teachings of
HQHAHMED or become i part of his organization will be destroyed.
h. The cross represents the black man who was placed
there by the white men since the time that the black man has been
enslaved.

equelity nhereee the Americen flag represents government by h,
enslavement, rape, and brutality. Q
7. With sufficient members MOHAMMED could compel the
United States Government to give him some of the earth.
8. The Negro in North America resides in the status of
a subject or slave rather than that of a citizenog the United

of destruction has been extended

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
'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 Western
countries of the world is in reality a conflict between good and
evil and the white race, being evil, will be destroyed.
l§.~ The earth rightfully belongs to the black man and
all white devils must be exterminated along with all of those
who serve the devil's purpose. All so-called Negroes are member;
of the Asiatic race whether they realize it or not.

The aims, purposes, and teachings of the EST have not
changed. ELIJAH MOHAMMED, the national leader, continues to
relate that the aims and purposes of the "Nation of Islam MCI!
are to separate the white race from the black race in order that
the black race can establish a nation of their own in the United
States to rule and govern themselves independent of the white
race. In this regard MOHAMMED continually states that the Unitev
States Government should gije the so-called Negro a state or a
group of states to rule and govern themselves and also continues
to characterize the Ration of Islam as a vnation within a natic
The basic teachings continue to be that members of the MCI reside
in this country as subjects or slaves and are not citizens of the
United 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 that
their children are still in slavery in this country. Other teach
ings of the MCI continue to be the eating of proper foods, moral
