to agent for examination. lpprently, all members interviewed discussed any
point brought out without reserve and did not appear to withhold any interna-
tion concerning their affiliation Iith the Moorish Science Temple or the
teachings of the organization. They readily supplied the names of other
members of the organisation.
Due to the fact that no
sedition statutes has been established and since
appears to be somewhat unreliable, no further
