Malcolm has reportedly won to his side the influential New

Muhammad -- have stuck by their leader. 51¢
There have been ei1'orts to characterize the Muslim rift asloontest between moderates and extremists with Malcolm leading the
radical contingent. Such an observation is folly.
_ In June, 1962, a plane carrying 130 Americans crashed in Paris,
_ killing all aboard. Malcolm then laid down Muhammad's line in a Los
Angeles speech:

I Muhamad comes close to preaching outright sedition. His
followers dodge the draft. He speaks knowingly of the "Battle of
Armageddon" and has promised that "white rule in the United States
will be overthrown by 1970."
Muslims are forbidden to eat pork; A Muslim minister explained
why: "The hog is dirty, quarrelsome, greedy, ugly, foul, a scavenger
which thrives on filth. It is a parasite to all other animals. It
will even kill and eat its own. Do you agree? In short the hog has
all the characteristics of a white man."
The dispute between Malcolm and Muhammad may come out into the
open at the Muslims upcoming convention. More than 2,000 delegates
are expected to attend and it is not known if Malcolm will be seated.
"A11 Muslims who are in good standing can attend," a Muslim
spokesman said the other day. Whether that includes Malcolm is not
lcnown .
Minister Lonnie 3X, a Muslim leader in the District of Columbia,
refused comment when asked about the Malcolm-Muhammad feud.

Violence in Aide Split _ __ GE 39
By DON CARSON
Associated Press Staii Writer
The leader of the Black
Muslims declared last night
that s reported split with his
top aide would not lead to
Negro violence. '
My people are more adapt-
ed to peace," Elijah Muham-
mad said. "They believe in
peaceful solutions."
Muhammad, the B5-year-old
leader of an estimated 275,000
Negroes, spoke during an in-
terview in his southeast Phoe-
nix home.
l-liseyes watered occasion-
ally as he spoke about the de-
fection of Malcolm X, consid-
ered tbe No. 2 man in the
movement. '
Malcolm X bolted the par-
mt group Sunday to promote
"active self defense against
white supremacists." He de-
clared that he was still a
Muslim, but intended to work
on his own. i
"We are surprised," Mu-
hammad said. I never
dreamed this man would devi-
ate from the Nation oi Islam.
Every one of the Muslims ad-
mired him. But what he has
said makes it definite. He has
deviated.-IIu-|i- - .»MADCOLTK '
'shns-smmr '
Maybe I'm a little too slow
for him," Muhammad slid.
He's energetic But he has
more brains than to start any
violence._ He _doesnt have any
guns, any animunition."
Muhammad said his organi-
sation would continue to pur-
sue the peaceful approach in
his attempt "to follow the rev-
elations which came to me
from Allah.Muhammad said the Mus-
lims behave in separation of
race only }'if America will not
give us equal yusuce."
Then he added: I. see no
signs of equal justice."
If this is not attained, he
said the Muslims ask that the
slave master and his slave
be separated. Let us return
where they brought us from,
and if not that, then give us
some territory and give a lit-
tle start and let us live by ourselves. ' '
"Instead of trying to toler-
ate dissatisfaction between
white and black and mongrd-
ize the nation; let us sepa-
rate. '
Predicting failure for any
attempt at Negro violence,
Muhammad said he felt Mal-
colm Xs action would have no
effect on the outcome at the
Civil Rights bill pending In
Congress or on the attitudes
of the nations 22 million non-
Muslim Negroes. _ --
He also revealed that he
contacted leaders in such
gro organizations as the N
tional Association for the Atl-
vancement of Colored People
and the Urban League, but
had recdved no answers yet._. jig__ .__ - - 1 ...-

The whites had better under-
stand this while there is still,

dangerous to deceive the white
People into believing that alh
Well." |

- Malcolm urged Negroes
abandon the doctrine ct non-
"violenoe in the _civi.l rights
struggle. He asserted:
It is criminal to teach a man
not to defend himself when he
is the constant victim or brutal
attacks. It is legal and lawiui
to own a shotgun or a rie. We
believe in obeying the law.
- In areas when our people
are the constant victims oil
brutality and the Government

THERE ISLITTLE to be said about Mal-
colm X that responsible Negro leaders have notalready said: That he damages the cause of equalrights, that his advocacy of violence under the
fraudulent disguise of self-defense" basely sp-
peals to passion and hatred.He is, we would say, far more concerned withpower and vainglory than with the rights of Ne-groes. His own words convict him of having nodeep convictions -- for instance this statement:I am too intelligent to take a stand as militant
and controversial and, as you might say, extrem-
ist, unless I had some support."Is not this the same as saying that he is toointelligent or ternporizing! to.ta1-re s militant,controversial, extremist stand unless he found it
expedient to do so? -Like all demagogues, of any race or color, he
feeds on publicity and recognition. We grant him
this small amount here only to join in the verdictagainst him that has been returned by the real
leaders of his own race.

' It was aE%teresting coincidence that the news
of Malcolm s defection from the Black Muslim
movement came the same day that the Senate
began debating the civil rights hill. There is a
dialectical relationship between: white and black
supremacy, and the longer and_more bitter the
ght over civil rights legislation, the more it will
prot the rabid movement Malcolm X represents.
Extremes in this case reinforce each otIherevery
foolish and hate-laden word uttered in the Senate
against civil rights will ndits echo in equally
foolish and hateful black nationalist propaganda.
Malcolm X is the younger, smoother and more
plausible disciple of Elijah Muhammad--or was,
until he broke with the master because he felt
that Mr. Muhammad was too narrowly sectarian.
Now Malcolm X asse'rF'E'rT§F he is "prepared to
cooperate in local civil rights actions in the South
and elsewhere."_ But it should he clear that the
effect of his help may be more likely to demoralize
and destroy the movement than to help it.
Black nationalists do not believe in desegrega-
tion; rather, they seek, ashlalcolm X has said,
to heighten the political consciousness of the
Negroes and intensity their identication against
white society." Obviously. U113 objective will not
be furthered by an orderly and just advancement
of Negro claims against the white majority. In-
stead, black nationalism must grow by sowing
despair and discord among Negroes. -
Thus the movement stands in somewhat the
same relationship to-the-broader civil rights cam-
paign as did the American Communist Party to
the liberal and labor causes of the 1930s. The
Communists, too, were not interested in nding
solutions to the social calamities ot that period.
They were interested in promoting tumult in order
to heighten the political awareness of the prole-
tariat and disrupt the processes of democracy in
a capitalist society. I _ .
No doubt the civil rights leadership will b_e
able to contain the black nationalist element. At
the moment, the Neg-o separatist movement is
not large, although like the Communists, it is
capable of generating 1!'U'ltsld!rable noise._ But it
could grow at an slarming rate it Negroes come
to feel that a promise made a century ago can-
not be redeemed within the framework of demo-
cratic methods. .-1.. Q, - '-
There is a note of menace in Malcolm X: as-
sertion that thereican be no revolution without
bloodshed." While this menace can be over-
stated, it is nevertheless reaL It forms a cloud
on the horizon as American democracy faces one

Some see Malcolm's entry into '
the broader field of civil rights
ins a prelude to a bloody sum-
mer. Malcolm. who has advised
Negroes to purchase weapons;-
tor self-defense, has predicted
an increase in racial violence

iP Frustration Greater Nowfor the coming warm months.
A similar prediction was
voiced frequently a year ago byclose observers of the movement.
But Negro frustration was ef-.
utectively channeled into such"
lnonviolent demonstrations as the -
March on
This summer, these same
sources say, the frustration is
much greater and the tradition-1al civil rights leaders have lesai
icontrol over their £0l10wers.£."There have been no concretej
victories tor a long time," onei
observer said yesterday. "I am
really scared about what !Ial-
colm may be able to do." i
Another acute observer of the
movement, Bayard Rustin, be--
lieves that Malcolm: call to ac-
tion may interest Negroes who
formerly had shunned the Na-;
tion of Islam. Mr. Rustin, who.
icoordinated the March onl
Washington last summer and
other demonstrations, said in aninterview; '

inside. His father, a Baptist
minister and follower of blaclt
nationalist Marcus G a r v e y,
moved his family to Lansing.
Mich. Their house was burned
down in Wit by Ku Kiux
Klansmen. Malcolm says. '
Later his father was found
killed by a streetcar. Malcolm
believed he was lynched.
One of ll children, he was
sent to it boys institution
where he-made good grades
but was told his ambition of
becoming a lawyer was unsuit-
able for a Negro.
He traveled to New York
in l94l and soon became a
Harlem teen-age gangster
known as "Big Red" because of
his height and copper sltin col-

I-'11-IE Nation of Islam--betterIF. known as the Black Muslim
movementis an Islamic Sect,
adapted by American Negroes for Amer-
ican Negroes, with a secret member-
ship that could be anywhere from 50,000
to 250,000. What is preached in its
temples. or mosques, LS a doctrine of
black supremacy for black men are
divine"!, hatred of the white man for
whites are devils"!, and complete sep-
aration of the raca. The Muslims reject
integration as completely as does

black nation in Arnerlcathe nation of

but it has never said how it proposes
to achieve this seceion nor from what
part or the Uniteptates it proposes to
carve its nation.
Officially, Lhe Black Muslims preach

But experts describe t.he movement:
posture as one of "contained aggres-
siveness," largely because of the con-
cepts of its charismatic leader, Elijah
Muhammad.
.gCCORD1'NG to legend, the move-
ment began when a "Prophet" appeared
Detroit in tJ1.e nineteen-thirties de-
nouncing Christianity and the white
man. Before "disappearing." he ap-
pointed Muhammad as his "Messen-
ger" ad endowed him vi.-"ith divine glid-
ance. Muhammad, born Elijah Poole in
1891' at Sandcrsville, Ga.. is the un-
educated but dynamic son of a Baptist
minister. The Muslims began to thrive
under Muhammad about the time the
civil rights movement spread in the
fties. Ternpleranq liommerclal enter-
prises supported by Muslim money grew
and flourished in various cities though
headquarters were in Chicago where
Muhammad sat. He and his sons--and
notably his w.':=i.-'1-law, P.a_92,'me:'.d Shar-
rieit, Suprerne92Captain of the Fruit of
Islam were all-powerful author-
itarians. Eschewmg politics and the
vote, keeping their strength secret. they
welded a monolithic organization. They
demanded and got blind and unswerv-
ing obedience to the spiritual leader.

that he is "and always will
be" a Muslim and that, so far
as he is concerned, Muham-
mad cannot reject him be-
cause no Muslim can be re-
jected by the spiritual head.
"But it is time for the Ne-
groes to defend themselves,"
Malcolm said, "If no one will
say that, I will. If a person
threatens you, by coming in
the churches, bombing the
churches. killing little girls,
shooting little boys. then the
Negroes should defcnd them-
selves, even if it means tak-
ing ries and shotguns, and
driving from our door the peo-
ple who are brutalizing

not wait for white investi-
gators. Tliey should find the
guilty ones themselves and ex-
ecute them on the spot.

is guaranteed under the Con-

in self-defense. Since he has
the legal right to own a shot-

the Negro to have one." Later,
Malcolm told a press confer-
ence that Negroes should
form rie clubs" to defend
their lives and property.
All the past actions of the
demonstrations and the sit-ins
and boycotts have been imma-
ture, boyish; that.s why," he
added contcmptuously, "they
call the blegrocs 'boys. " The
time has come for Negroes to
fight back, he said. He in-
tends to tell the Negroes
"that what has been called I-he_

upon them, because they have
only to examine the failure of

and they shout back Iervcntly,
"We will! Teach us, Memm

There have been few smiles
since Malcolm formed his new
party. Indeed. Elijah Muham-
mad thundered like the wrath
of Allah as he told me by tel-
ephone from his home in Chi-
cago:
Malcolm's plans have had
no effect at all on the move-
ment. My work is divine work,
and the people believe in what
I am teaching, or the resur-
rection from the death--the
mental deathof my people.
Anyone who deviates from
Islam is a hypocrite. -I!-IVVHEN he learned that
Malcolm still spoke favorably
of him and said he remained a
Muslim, Muhammad said an-
grily: "II he spoke favorably,
he has no alternative but to re-
main with meiI he believes
in the Divine Message that Al-
lah has given to me to deliver
to my people. He would not go
after other groups who have
not accepted Islarn.
"There is no weeping or
moaning over anyone who
leaves Islam, as such a man is
a deviate or hypocrite, who
does not want to live under
the guidance of God's Messen-
ger.
"Mere belief counts for
nothing in Islam, unless ear-
ried into practice. He's prepar-
ing our people to nd them-
selves and to i'ight~I heard
him on television. It is very
silly to say such a thing, be-
cause where are they going to
get guns and arrns!
"I am in favor or what I
have been teaching for the
past years. all over the coun-
try of America," Muhammad
went on, t.hat.we carry no
arms, and we do not seek to
win victory with arms. We
loliow what Allah has revealed
-and that is, be our own
selves, and do nothing to oth-
ers that we would not have
done unto us. That is a univer-gn-
5
sal conceptbecause that is
the best religion.
"I feel absolutely surprised
at the man. He was under an
indefinite suspension. He had
represented himsell publicly ---_.-..-_-ior several years as being-'a

tenchin|;s and revelations oi
Allah that He has given to me.
Now he has turned away to go
after something that he him-

Then Muhammad added
quietly, "lhis partlcular'worls
oi reforming the so-called Ne-
gro, so he can take his place
in society, cannot be done by
anyone who has not'got with
him divine guidance. It is
absolutely divine work, guided
divinely. Malcolm had that as
long as he was with me." The
old man underscored this
heavily and, it seemed, sadly.
But otherwise he does not
have it. I think religious sci-
entists and scholars know
that our people will have to
be completely reformed--and
Malcolrns_way is not the way
to reform them.
O I I O
P11 HE reaction to Malcolm's1 new role by-national civ-
il-rights leaders ranges from
skepticism to puzzlemcnt andworry. Sorne claim indifference "
to the split in the Muslim
movement. The Muslims, they
say, were really repudiated by
the Negro masses at the his-
"tor|c' march on Washington
last year, which dramatized
how deeply the Negroes be-
lieve in and seek an integrated
America. They have been on
a decline ever since, and
Malcolm's breakaway was a
move ol desperation. after his
public rebuke, since he saw the
handwriting on the wall.
Some in this group believe
that Malcolm is a creature
of the press, radio and televi-
sion. As one spokesman put
it, "They seem to get a mas-
ochistlc kick out of Malcolm's
giving them hell."
As for Malcolm's statements
about "sell-defense," they be-
lieve that he will be as unsuc-
cessful in selling the masses of
Negroes on rifle clubs and vio-
lent action as he was in selling
them on a separate state.
Other Negro leaders are
skeptical of a real split in the
Muslims. They have known
for some time that Malcolm
and other young Muslim
leaders were convinced that
the Muslims were he&.h"._r.k'_l

by their aloofness from the
civil-rights movement. Now
they are wondering whether
Malcolm has suddenly become
e dedicated man or "remains
a cha.rlatan." As one expert
put. it. "He may be s Tro-
jan horse proceeding. under
the guise and protection of
Muhammad, but actually ma-
neuvering to get into the
civil-rights movement." These
leaders are adopting a wait-
and-see attitude. They neither
condemn nor cheer the new
Malcolm," but will Walt and
study his program and his
sponsors.
As Roy willcins. executive
secretary of the N'.A.A.C.P.
puts it: "We do not know
whether he intends to help
American Negro citizens tn
their civil rights campaign,
or whether he really is serious
in wooing them to some kind
of a Black Nationalist sep-
arate state." -
Certainly Malcolm's attempts
to appeal to Christian as well
as Muslim Negroes, and his at-
tempt. to make his temple all
things to all black men trou-
ble many objective outsiders.
Some Chicago Muslims are
in his corner. It is expected
that other young Muslims in
the New ffli and ashinon
temples will follow, 'a.s may

N.A..A.C.P. and CORE the

as well as from the unorgan-
ized
I'lis this last, unknown quan-
titythe masses of Negroes
who do not belong to the civil-
rights movementthat con-
cerns many thoughtful observ-
ers. _
Prof. C. Erie Lincoln of
Clark College, author of the
definitive study at the Black
Muslims, says:
Them is an incasing nutri-
ber of Negroes who feel that.
nonviolence has run its course,
and they are disillusioned."
Only the other day. on his
college campus in Atlanta,
eight Negro student lladers
met with an advisory group
bfleadihg white Atlanta cita-"92
-
zcns. The studc-nt"iead'ers"told
them that what used to be s
student movement "now in-
volves the total Negro com-
-munity." And this, reects
Professor Lincoln, includes
people who are not necessarily
committed to the philosophy
of nonviolence.
OF immense interest to ob-
servers, as Malcolm gparl___5 his
drive for recruits to his politi-
cal party. is its financing, He
has said that he will accept
money from any source, in-
cluding white people who,
however, can't join his group,
because when whites join an
organization, they usually out-
join it." There is speculation
whether Malcolm will be get-
ting at least petty cash {rem
his most picturesque recruit
to the Black lviuslims, the
heavyweight champion of the
world, Cassius X Clay!. The
-_22;,-:.';r-old fighter whom a
Nezro reporter has dubbed
the Clown Prince of the move-
P-"-EH!-. is constwtly in Mal-
colm's company and expects
to live on Long Island to be
near Malcolms home. I
Leaders of unquestioned sta-
ture in the civil-rights move-
ment are concerned not so
much-with the personality of
Malcolm X as with the condi-
tions in a community that
make it possible for any op-
portunist to exploit and cap-
italize them. Whitney Young,
executive director of the Na-
tional Urban League, ob-
serves: "As long as you have
the poverty, the poor housing,
the bitter conditions that
nourish the despair. there
will always be people around
like Malcolm X or John X or
any-X." *
And Professor Lincoln con-
cludes: The fact that Mal-
colm X believes that a. Black
Nationalist party is possible or
is needed is a reection up-r-ii
the distance we still have to
go to matte the Negro believe
that the white man is sincere-
ly interested in having the
Negro participate equally in
the common values _oI this
society."ii

WASHINGTON, March 25--The demagogic MalcoléF%I Black Muslim turned________4__Black Nationalist, has made giant strides toward leadership in the
Negro civil rights movement within the last two weeks.
A fortnight ago Malcolm, number two man in the Black Muslin
hierarchy, announced that he was quitting that group

Since then, working out or temporary headquarters
Hotel Theresa, Brother Malcolm as he now prefers to
seen powerful leaders come to him for assistance.
This, despite his suggestions that American Negroes form "rifle
clubs and arm for "self-defense." This despite Malcolm's advice that
Negroes kill police dogs used to curb civil rights demonstrations.
This despite his vicious attacks on established Negro leaders Hal
NBunche is an international Uncle Tom"!.
One weekend after his split with th Muslims. Malcolm was invi _ e , , __ __ _. _to form his own

called
to Chester, Pennsylvania, for a meeting with militant Negro leaders.
Malcolm received the greatest applause afforded any speaker, Negro
leaders who cheered Malcolm included comedian Dick Gregory; qambridge,
Maryland's Gloria Richardson, and Chicago's Lawrence Landry, éhe -.
last-named Negro heads a nationwide group called the Coordinatpng '
Council of Civil Rights organizations. QT. Cv
Upon his return to New York, Malcolm was wooed by Negro militnts .5
who ran a second school boycott last week. Malcolm pitched-in, was
on radio and television to urge his followers to keep their children
home in protest against slum conditions.
A quarter million Negroes played hockey and credit went to Malcolm,
a Brooklyn minister, the Rev. Milton Galamison, and Jesse Gray,
dynamic leader of New York rent strikes.
Gray and Malcolm, as a matter of fact, were singled out by New York
Police Commissioner Michael J. Murphy as "irresponsible" leaders who,

EY FULTON Ilswzs, Ja; xx own,
while the Freedom Now Party has not yet run a candidate for public
office, another all-Negro party has, The New Frontier Party, formed
last year by dissident New Jersey Negroes, ran candidates for the
State Legislature, while no New Frontier candidates won, they did
draw sufficient votes from the Democrats to enable several
Republicans to achieve victory.
New Frontier Party leaders, flushed from their Pyrrhic victory,
twill this year field a full slate of candidates in northern New
Jersey. They will run candidates for the U.S, Senate, the U.S. House
of Representatives, and the Essex County posts of Surrogate, Sheriff
and the Board of Chosen Freeholders,
-I--I-*
92 The Maryland State Senate, in a virtually-unprecedented move, has
blasted U.S. foreign policy as cowardly and ineffective. The
Democratic-controlled body approved a Special Resolution stating its
deep concern over the foreign pOlicies of the United states and the
low ebb to which this great country has some in the esteem and
affection of the rest of the world."
*-l--I-
Nelson Rockefeller is the albatross around his brother, WinthfOpS,
neck. Winthrop has long been groomed as the man who can be Arkansas
first Republican governor.
But Winthrop must, of course, back his brother for President. -
Now comes word from Arkansas that leaders of the Republican Party
in that state are shying away from Winthrop Rockefeller. Sort of
guilt by
State
Winthrop
Winthropassociation.
GOP Chairman William L. Spicer, for instance, insists that
is trying to force his brother on State Republicans. This
denies, but there is no doubt his political sledding would
be easier if his brother were not seeking the Presidency.

It is not the presence or Jasence of black children in a class!"

Domination of the civil rights movement by whites and by Pgroes begging for a place on s, white stage has dictated the 1
violent character oi the movement. in Malcolm's opinion. He .
that no intelligent white man would fight for his own freedom
way he fights for black freedom. "Sure he'll sit in and be 1:
violent and so forth, but when his own property ia_attacked_
not nonviolent. He's only nonviolent when he's on your side." it

what it wants but knows what it should have. And there: another

The reverherations at a racial explosion here would be felt-and
supported-all over the world by the black revolution that has been
taking -place since 1945, the black nationalist leader believes.
According to Malcolm. the separation of blacks from the white
commtmity oi America is a lact of liie and therefore, Negro Amer
icons should enjoy complete control over the politics and politicians
of our conununity rather than leave it to the white man.
I The black nationalist, for whom Malcolm is Ptfhllil the most

is u part or a world majority rather than an American minority.

alism. See announcement. page 1!
Some white liberals. however,
were visibly disturbed by his
scathing indictment of the role
of liberalism in the Negro strug-
gle and his insistence on an all-
blaclr leadership tor the Negro
movement. _
A lively point in the dlSC_|.S'5iG
period was I heated exchange
between Malcolm X and James
Wechsler, liberal editorial column-
ist for the New York Post. Wechs-
ler sought to bolster the press
propaganda smear that MalcolmX is a "hate-monger.
' GR: M i.-..de
This charge was not substL_n-
tiatecl for those who came to learn
what Malcolm X really stands
for and who listened to him with
an open mind. A number of such
young people later indicated that
the meeting had given them a
completely different conception of
Black Nationalism than they had
gotten from the news media,
Malcolm X, in turn, welcomed
the oportuni to address the
meeting and also commended The
Militant. In his closing remarks,
he said:
I want to thank the Militant
Labor Forum for the invitation
to speak here this evening. I think
as I said earlier, the paper is one
of the best Ive reaqiwe always
encourage those in Harlem to buy
it when we see if up there, or
where ever else we may see it.
It's a very good paper, and I hope
they continue to have success -
make progress. They cs:-. probably

ln response to a question about
the Freedom Now Party, Malcolm
X answered that he didn't know
rm much about it, but "what I
know about it I like.
During his presentation, Mal-
colm X denounced the Democratic
pq_|'1,y_ Any Negro who registen
as a Democrat or a Republican is-
a traitor to his own people, he
said in answer to a question.
Another questioner asked him
about the importance oi Marxism.
"I don't know too much about
Karl Marx," he answered. But
he indicated an understanding of
the key role of economic issues
with a concise explanation of the
shrinking world market for Amer-
ican goods and its effect on the
American economy.
At several points in the question
period Malcolm X talked about
what whites can do.
The whites can help it they're
progressive-minded, he said, "but
my observation and analysis of
the type of help that tl1eyve been
giving makes me very cautious
about the help they otter _. . .
- _ 'l92vo Standards?
No white person would go
' bout ghting tor freedom in the
same manner that he has help
you and me right tor our freed
_ none of them would. When it
comes to black freedom, then t e
white man -- he freedom rides
and sits-in. He's non-violent. He
sings We Shall Overcome" and
all that sort of_ stuft. But when
the property of the white man
is threatened or his freedom is
threatened, he's not non-violent."
So it the whites are sincere in
the struggle, they will show the
black man how to use better
tactics, tactics that will get "results
- and not results I hundred years
from now. '
"Our people are not going to
wait ten years," he said.
I! this house is a house of free-
iiorii and iustiee tor all -- it that:
what it is - then let's have it."
Toward the end of the questionperiod an elderly white man in-
sisted on a chance to answer Mal-
colm X. Given the floor. he PW"
. ceeded to lecture Malcolm X on

the current series of Sunday night
rallies to telling how the civilized
Africans were kidnapped, sys-

point where their will to resist was
destroyed and then brought to this
country to be slaves.eLooch
He said that any strategy used --

situation of the black man in this

Gloria Richardson opened her
remarks by saying that Brother
Malcolm had added a necessary
and vital spark to the struggle.
She advocated controlled sell-

This new position by Mal-

silenced by Elijah Muham-

Kennedy: assassination. He
broke away completely March
8 to form his own group.
Dr. Shawarbi indicatedtutelage of Malcolm X from
other Arab Muslims here in
New York. Most of the criti-
cism stemmed from fears that
Malcolm is not sincere and
may use the religion and pil-
grimage as a device to im-
iprove his public image for his"
own purposes.

He told me he Wanted to
learn about the real Islam.
He said he was already a Mus-
lim but felt there was more
to it. First, I had to persuade
him to give up his racist ideas.
I pointed out that sometimes
Arabs themselves feel they are
somehow special Muslims be-
cause the Prophet Muhammad
was Arab. But he warned us
we will be judged by our
deeds and not by our race."

EDITORIAL
Since his break with the Black Muslim movement,
hlzilcolm X has continued to focus his fiery speeches on
the need for more militancy in the black liberation strug-
gle. The change in his remarks, if any, has been to em-
phasize still more the anti-government--the revolution-
ary-- aspect of his position, and to begin to talk in terms
more than religious, drive for black power.
of the key ingredients in l'.ia.lcolm's call for an
of black nationalism is the inei itable triumph of
the Negro masses. He effectively derides the eternal-
rule attitude of the white ruling class and the iataiisrn oi
m3,1y Negro leaders who accept the white man's notion of
the white ma:is majority forever overwhelming the black
minority.
Malcolm links the U.S. 192'egr: to the growing world
movement of colored peoples against U.S. colonialism.

The commercial white press singled out Malcolm's
remarks on armed sell-defense for special coverage.
When Malcolm calls for black rifle clubs, the press howls
with hysterical headlines designed to fan the flames of
hatred or "rednecks," north and south, and to te r rity
southern "moderates" and northern liberals.
In an effort to frighten Negroes away from Malcolm's
call for a Black Nationalist Party, the press warns dema-
gogically that "only violence will result" from Malcolm:
militancy as if everything has been nice and peaceful for
the past hundred yearst!. The white ruling circles have
let their press run wild with plea after plea from "estab-

- is-.~.-.,'::iiy social philosophy is black nationalism._ _ - to die
this means that the political philosr l v of black national-
ism is that which is designed to ent :age our people,
the black people, to gain complete control over the poli-
tics and politicians of our own community . . . .We should
gain complete economic control over the economy of our
conimunity, tho businesses and other things that create
enzployment, so that we can provide employment for our
own people, instead of having to picket and boycott and
beg other people for a job."
These words, while militant, nonetheless raise as
many questions as they answer: Who does Malcom mean
when he says "We should gain complete economic con-
trol?" And what l-tind of economic system does Malcolm
propose to control? Would he simply substitute black
bosses for white--or does he propose that power be put
in the hands of black workers? Or doesn't he distinguish
between black workers and black bosses? in his criti-
cisms of those who "picket and boycott and beg. . . for a
job," does Malcolm reject pickets and boycotts as tac-
tics? In the months ahead, he will have to answer these
questions, among others, if he is to win active mass
support.
But M.1lcol:n's grasp of the role of the federal govern-
ment stands in sharp contrast to other Negro leaderswho
still preach reliance on the "cracker" in Washington, and
the hope that somehow the federal government will be
pushed into making important concessions. Malcolm's
call for black political power, although vague, is in con-
trast to those integrationists who see ending oppression
within the confines of the white man's capitalist economy.
- 1 However, Malcolm is not the only black leader to put
forward this new attitude in recent months. Many Negro
I . .
lreaders are coming to grips with the failure of the inte-
vration movement to win anything from the federal gov-Pirrurient except platitudes and jail sentences. Many are.
coming to see that the so- called civil rights bill, bogged
down in a filibuster, is actually a giant fraud, bothin what
it says or doesn't say! and in the. way it's being used as
a political football.
__ This new 3.ppIOElCh is reflected by the forces around
Gloria Richardson in Cambridge, Md., Stanley Branche
and the Freedom Now Committee in Chester, Pa., Law-
rence Landry in Chicago, the "ad hookers" in San Fran-
cisco see last month's PL!, and the Brooklyn CORE reb-
els and Rev. Milton Cclamison in New York, _W'nile these
forces are not all the same and the leaders are not all
of equal ability or consistency, they share many of
the above-mentioned attitudes, as does Malcolm X.
The unification of {ll such forces aroundaclear pro-
Qr:-.:":i would be a big blow against the ruling class, and an
1_:1;1t to the entire black freedom movement. The recent
fr. _;.on in Washington of an organization called ACT,
".2--er the chairmanship of Landry and with the participa-
tion of most of the above-mentioned forces as well as
s-irne Sb-CC leaders, could be a big step in the direction
oi that unity,. -In this regard, nialcolm X's position is not clear. Hon
for example, will he reconcile the desire and ability of th-
Negro masses to "ct 3191 with his perspectives for self-
determination? he reconcile his opposition to integr:
tion with his verbal support for militant integrationists
and his participation in ACT?
I»/ialcolms statement that he will be the black m&nS
Billy Graham seems to put him at odds with some form c
mass action to secure the black revolution of which he
sp ealts. Surely Malcolm himself doesn't believe indepen-
dent black power, political or economic, can be preached
in,':o being.
At this point, Malcolm's main pitch is towards the bal
lot. He says the only way to avoid a violent rev_o1ution is
by the ballot: "Why is America in a position to bringabot
a bloodless revolution? Because the Negro in this countr;
holds the balance of power and the Negro . . . were give:
what the Constitution says he's supposed to have, the add-
ed power of the Negro in this country would sweep all the
racists and segregationists out of office. . . . It would wipePut the southern segregationists that now control Amer-C
ca's foreign policy as well as America's domestic policE. . . The black man has to be given full use of the ballot
in every one of the 50 states. But if the black man doesn-
get the ballot, then you are going to be faced with anothe
"'an who forgets the ballot and starts using the bullet.IT! Perhaps it is the smell of the ballot that has brougil
Adam Clayton Powell to the edges of Malcolm's activitié
Or perhaps it is Powell's assignment from the p ower
structure to use his demagogy to guarantee that the na-
tionalist movement becomes nothing more than an appen-
dage to the electoral system.!
In the final analysis, Malcolm's policies will be test-
ed by deeds and by the ability of black nationalism to at-
t:;act large numbers of Negro workers, a. feat so far un-
atrhieved by the integration movement, or by existing na-
tiimalist groups.
- To accomplish this, Malcolm will have to develop and
explain his identification with the world-wide anti-imper
ialist front, a large part of which has transcended nation
alism and adopted internationalism and the class outlook
that goes with it. Moreover, he, together with others, will
have to demonstrate the concrete advantages of black na-
liqalism 9-! home and Hsanize masses of blacl-t worlte-s
to ight the white rulers this implies a certain amount f
dif erentiation between white rulers and white masses!
th _, only kind of fight which will lead to freedom.

Ma-lcolmp X Suggests
By Ronald G. Berquisl
,who
self a minister of Islam, of-
fered Saturday night a new se-
ries of solutions for racial
problems in the United States.
During a debate in the Op-
era House with Negro author
Louis Lomax, Malcolm had
these suggestions:
| Problems of racial tension
in the country should be
taken before the United Na-
tions. __ '
2 American Negroes should
consider Pan-Africanism
and strengthen their cultural
and philosophical ties with the
African continent.
3 The American Negro should
be prepared to abandon the
leaking boat" of his current
state.
A Separate State?
Whether this last item means
a separate state for the Negro
as Malcolm X once advocated
while still with the Black Mus-
lims Elijah Muhammad was
unexplained
However, earlier in the de-
bate, moderated by Sun-Times
columnist Irv Kupcinet, he dis-
avowed any such thing.
Putting it in n still vaguer
reference, he said:
"We do not want integration
nor do we want separation.
The program should be de-
signed to preserve our human
rights." -
- Pm Not A Racist
Before leaving Elijah Mo-
hammad, Malcolm X sided with
his superiorfs racist view. -

some 2,000 persons at the de-
bate: '

not subscribe to the tenets of
racism." -

' He said that the problem of
the American Negro should be
taken out of the realm of civil
rights and placed in the inter-
national sphere. ' f

- For 12 years he was chiet

now_preaching to his fellow

"brotherhood" with the
whites.
It still is a militant and
even violent message. But
the hate-all-whites doctrine
that once marked his every

Rejects Separation
"We don't believe in any
of Muhammads philosophy
of separation. We believe the
Afro-American should have ,
his full part in the entire-
American experience," he
continued. _ .
Only a few months ago, on -
March 17, 1964, a young Neg-
'ro writer Irom South Africa,
Lewis N-kosi, wrote tot the
London Observer:
Malcolm X is the oni
black man in America who:
face I have watcher tu
radiant with hate against t
white people."
Malcolm X still hates. But
his hate has shifted from the
entire white race to the
"white racists."
He made it clear that his.
tollowers are being taught
only to hate "oppression, seg-
regation and injustice which
some white people practice."
Not All Ball _
We realize that all white
people are not bad," he said.
Elijah Muhammad taught
that the whole white race
was a race of devils. When I
went to the holy city of
Mecca earlier this year! I
Iound white men walking
arm and arm with black
men. I wrote back to that et-'
Iect and it infuriated Mu-
hammad. He was in a rage!.

trlct are the best arrned Negroes
in the world, and warned that
there could be a racial explosion-
unlesa the poli¢e change their tac-
tics in dealing with them.
Malcolm X, attending the surn-
t conference of African lead-
rs here, advocated recently that
' egro-es, in the South in particu-
lar, arm themselves against lt-
tacks by racists.
i'.?ornmeni;.ing on news of the
Harlem riots, Malcolm X indirect-
ly blamed the scare tactics, used
by the police, on Commissioner
Michael Murphy. He said: -
"I am surprised that the trouble
has been contained to the degree
it has. Until two yea-1'5 ago, New
York City used wiser methodsracial problems. .
' "But under police Commissioner
Murphy, for some reason. tactics
have changed. Now it is a cue of
outright scare tactics. 'l'his_won't
work because the Negro la not
afraid. It the tactics are not
changed, this could escalate into
something very, very serious."
Alludlrlg to Negroes being a
ed, Malcolm X said:
There are probably more arm
Negroes in Harlem than in "
spot on earth. It the people who
are armed got involved in this,
you can bet ifnefli really have
something on their hands."
after drawing a 90-day suspen-
sion tor ridiculing the assasina-

By Victor Riesel
Cairo, United Arab Republic: --Malcolm X, whom the Chinese Communists call the
"Chairman of the Afro-American Unity Organization," spent a considerable amount of '
his time in the presence of international Communist propagandists here. /!
Not only did he endorse the rioting back home, but he publicly called for
retaliation against the white community. He said the time had come to meet
"violence with violence; an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth." 92/
He prepared s series of inflammatory anti-U.S. documents here on the gégext
presenting them to the recent meeting of the Organization of African Unity; and i
was reported across the world that he attended the conference. This is nonsense.did not get near the parley. He was not accredited to it. b1Q,
Streets were roped off. Hotels which the heads of states and foreign ministers
occupied were cleared of all but official guests. Only those with special blue calm
and lapel badges, which were changed daily, were able to get anywhere near the
e11
conference area, All but the short formal opening session were executive meetings.
I was at that session. I talked later with several heads of state--many of them
old friends whom I had helped in the U.S. when they were in e:d.le._ They are now
. - altamongst America s oest friends in Africa..
Malcolm X was not at any of the conference sessions. I was informed that Hi
"is ridiculous" and "undignified" to think for a moment that anyone such as I-Ialcolm92
K would be heard by the African counterpart of the Organization of American States.
Malcolm X's activity here was strictly e propaganda operation which he set up
at the Hotel Semiramis, where some newsman gathered. He made certain the

But when Malcolm Xiwanted to be with his pro-Commroist friends he came over to
the Hotel Omar Khaynml on Zamalik, an island in the middle of Cairo!, a former
palace. I vouch for this personally. I was there when he met Mrs. Shirley Graham
Duois, widow of the late Dr. W. E. nunqig, in the lobby. When the aged Dr. Iugig
died recently, he was a member of the Communist Party, U.S.A., and had switched his
citizenship to Ghana.
The Hotel Omar Khayam was also the headquarters of the violently anti-U.S.,
pro-Communist Ghanaian delegation to the African States conference. On Thursday,
July 16 Malcolm X and his frequent companion, Mrs. Duhois, met fo: hours in the
garden restaurant of the hotel.
Mrs. Duhois and her late husband, one of the most active of Negro Communist
leaders in the U.S., spent much time in Peking. They were frequent guests of Mao
Tse~tung himself. Dr. DuBois delivered many anti-U.S. speeches which were broadcast
across the world by the powerful Chinese mainland radio.
Mrs. DuBois has long been active in world Communist circles. Her background is
important here to show the strange inter-weaving of characters now attempting to
infiltrate and agitate the Negro communities of the U.S.
