R. Could I get one from Minister John.

E. Ah, I could send him one if he does not have one.

R. Think that he has one. It he has one, I could get it from him and you would release it.

E. Yes madam. And I else was with-Mr. Farard Mohammed for three years and was with him when he wae arrested in Detroit, Michigan, there.

E. Well, he communicates with me just like I am talking with you. I hear him in my ears, Just like I am listening to.you.

E. I know him perfectly well and we have pictures of him and it they want to prove this why dont they write and get his picture from the Detroit police Court there or sen@ for it from Washington. And also ask him if that was the man, that they have in their paper today. I don't see why the Federal Government would not have told us time again. We are telling them almost daily who he is. They dont throw H stuff as that in our face. This is all just propaganda to try to prevent the so-called American Negro from accepting Islam. That is all it is for as far as I can see.

1 APPENDIX NATION OF ISLAM, Formerly Referred to as the Muslim Cult of Islam, Aka. guhammadfsglemplesiof Islam Z In January, 1957, a source advised ELIJAH MUHAMMAD has described his organization on a nationwide basis as the "Nation of Islam" and "Muhammad's Temples of Islam." On May 8, 1964, a second source advised ELIJAH MUHAMMAD is the national leader of the Nation of Islam N01!; Muhammad's Temple of Islam No. 2, 5335 South Greenwood Avenue, Chicago, Illinois, is the national headquarters of the N01; and in mid-1960 MUHAMMAD and other N01 officials, when referring to MUHAMMAD's organization on a nationwide basis, commenced using either "Mosque" or "Temple" when mentioning one of "Muhammad's Temples of Islam." The NOI is an all-Negro organization which was originally organized in 1930 in Detroit, Michigan. MUHAMMAD claims to have been selected by Allah, the Supreme Being, to lead the so-called Negro race out of slavenr in the wilderness of North America by establishing an independent black nation in the United States. Members following MUHAMMAD's teachings and his interpretation or the "Koran" believe there is no such thing as a Negro; thrt the so- called Negroes are slaves of the white race, referred to as "white devils," in the United States; and that the white race, b*ceuse of its exploitation of the so-called Negroes, must and will be des- troyed in the approaching "War of Armageddon." In the past, officials and members of the NOI, including MUHAMMAD, have refused to register under the provisions of the Selective Service Acts and have declared that members owe no allegiance to the United States. On May 5, 1958, the first source advised MUHAMMAD had, upon advice of legal counsel, tempered his personal statements and instructions to his ministers concerning the principles of his organization in order to avoid possible prosecution by the United States Government; however, he did not indicate any fundamental changes in the teachings of his organization.

On May 7, 1964, a third source advised MUHAMMAD had, early in July, 1958, decided to de-emphasize the religious aspects of the teachings of Islam and to stress the economic benefits to beaccording derived to by uurmuman, those Negroes would who help joined him acquire the N01. additionaEThis policy changeers P and create more interest in his programs. 1lE§»

There also exists a Junior HGT, which is composed of female members of the N01 who are between the ages of 15 '" 19and who are afforded military-type drill.

Since 1957, various officers and "sisters" of the HGT have, at meetings of the HGT, used the term HGT so that it also means General Civilization Class. General Civilization Class refers to classes conducted within the HGT,

The above refers to activities of the HGT at Huhammad's Temple of Islam No. 2., 5335 South Greenwood, Chicago, Illinois.

On Hay 7, 1964, another source advised that the HGT is a group within the ROI which is composed of all female members of the N01.

You know at one time I have not thought of many things, with the other party that I have not with you, and what would be the aftermath in the future. We are making history and I don't want anything to go down in history that the scholars and scientists of Islam can laugh at me and this would cause them to laugh at me. Because I am already out here with them and every wish I am battling with them and they have everything mwway. And this particular special thing would just only be in accord with our wholeaffair that I have here. And I gave them total history to put in the library in New York and they have everything in that. They want to make a book and I guess they are on it now. That has been 8 or 9 months ago and they want to put all of this in a book and have it so people can read it in the library.

MOHAMMAD ALI was the guest speaker. after MOHAMMAD spoke, Minister FABRAKHAN spoke. He stated that MARTIN LUTHER KING died because he had no vision. He was a brother and I'mnot against him, but the Bible told him the white man is our enemy. I do not get mad at a white man because of what he does because I know it is his nature to be unrighteous. There was no need for Mr. KING to die if he had vision.

The Brooklyn Mosque was so packed with that mostly all of the Muslims were in a part of visitors theaony Ballroom where speakers were put up so they could hear the speaker. after all visitors were dismissed, a meeting was held for Muslims only, but all couldnot attend for they were selling dinners in the Sony Ballroom and also MOHAMMAD ALI was there signing autcgraphs. Some brothers were there to keep everything orderly ADAM HR, EDmAhD 30A, THOMAB 26X, CURTIS 3X. Two brothers were on Minister Security - LEROY 22X and another brother. These brothers and a few others did not attend the mass meeting.

"Black Muslim Founder Exposed As A White"

"Dodd served time in Quentin as dope peddler.

"Black Muslims by thethousands pay homage to Wallace Farad, their "Prophet from Mecca," in the mistaken belief that as founder of the black supremacy cult he is one of their own.

"It was Farad who composed the tenets of the Black Muslim faith. He is the "holy man and divine person" who must be remembered in' f one or more o th e Black Muslims seven daily prayers.

"Yet Wallace Farad is, admittedly, an enterprising, racketeering fake. "He is not a Negro. He is a white man masquerading as a Negro.

"Dodd's police "rap sheet" includes a conviction for bootlegging and a San Quentin Prison term for the sale of narcotics.

"To the FBI he is No. 56062 - and a man of many aliases. The California Bureau of Identification and Investigation lists him as Wallace Ford, No. 1797924. At San Quentin, as Ford, he was No. 42314. With the Michigan State Police he is Wallace Farad, No. 98076.

"Although the names and numbers vary, the finger- prints are always the same, be it Los Angeles, San _ Quentin, or Detroit, birthplace of the_Black Muslim- movement.

"A huge doctored portrait of Dodd, alias Farad, adorns the wall behind the desk of Elijah Muhammad, present titular head of the Black Muslim cult.

"Elijah Muhammad, true name Elijah Poole, alias Gulan Bogans, 65-year old native of Georgia! in referring to Farad as a holy man and a divine person, observes:

"He is God himself. He is the one we have been - looking forth for the past 2000 years to come. He is the one and his word bears witness to the fact that he is the one."

"Asked if he personally knew Farad, Elijah Muhammad said that he did. He volunteered that, although Faradfhad gone back_to Mecca, he was in C0nStat touch with him spiritually, pending his return.

. "Indeed Elijah knows Farad. He first met him on a street corner in Detroit in 1

"At that time Dodd, under the alias Ford the namesFard and Farad came later!, was a turbanwearin doorto-door silk salesman!.

"Abandons Family

"Dodd arrived in the United States from ew Zealand in 1913 and settled in Portland,Oregon. He married b , u t soon abandoned his wife and infant son.

"He lingered in the Seattle area, under the name of Fred Dodd, for a few months before going to Los Angeles. There he opened a restaurant at 803 West Third St. under the name of Wallace D. Ford.

"At 26, Dodd took as his commonlaw wife a 25- yearold waitress employe who on lSeptember 1, 1920, bore him a son, Wallace Dodd Ford.

"On the son's birth certificate, Dodd listed himself as "white" and a native of New Zealand.

" In 1940 the boy's mother, aware of Dodds identity and his role as founder of the Black Muslims, had her son'sname changed legally from Wallace Dodd Ford to Wallace Max Ford. Two years later the youth drowned while in the service of the U.S. Coast Guard!. '

"Muslim Founder Admits: 92 I'm a Fake

"Under the alias Wallace D. Ford, Dodd was arrested for bootlegging in January, 1926. Once more he identified himself for the record as a member of the white race. He drew a brief jail sentence.

"On June l2, 1926, Dodd, under the alias of Ford, was sentenced to San Quentin Prison for the sale of narcotics over his restaurant counter. He drew a term of from six months to six years.

"Released from San Quentin on May 27, 1929, he paused briefly in Los Angeles before walking out on his commonlaw wife and son. Dodd made his way to Chicago and then to Detroit to become a Bible- toting itinerant peddler of silks.

"Dodd posed as a Negro and prided himself as something of a Biblical authority,and mathematician. He had a tremendous gift for gab and soon attracted a depression-following of Negroes.

"Dodd had no difficulty in convincing his followers they were descendants of the original man, that their forebears were of Islam and that they were Allah's chosen people.

"A Good Racket

"Realizing he had a good thing going, Dodd began emphasizing Islam and black supremacy. Gradually he turned away from the Bible, eventually denouncing it outright through interpretations twisted to suit his

purpose. He adopted the Koran as his cult's official religion text. He established a temple and conducted r~1n:92enc

"During this period he met Elijah Poole, whom he eventually ordained as minister of the Black Muslim faith under the name of Elijah Muhammad, "Apostle of Allah."

"By now Dodd was passing himself off as The Savior, born in the Holy City of Mecca. He claimed to have arrived in America on July 4, 1930.

"To excite interest among his followers and gain new adherents, Dodd published a crudely printed tract 5 the preface of which reads:

"This book teaches the Lost Found Nation of Islam. A thorough knowledge of our miserable state of condition in a mathematical way, when we were found by our Savior, W. D. Fard.

"The fly leaf reads: "By Prophet W. D. Fard."

"The book poses such problems as these:

A sheep contains 14 square feet. Onetenth of a square inch contains 10,000 hairs. How many will the 14 square feet contain? $15.50 for the person who works this problem. Qualified Members Only!.

"Through contributions and expanding commercial endeavors, including the sale of "official" note paper, Dodd had what constituted a tidy financial racket.

"Detroit 0usted'Him For Human Sacrifice

A Sacrifice

"But the potential dangerousness and the primitive instincts of some of his followers became evident on November 21, 1932, with an act of human sacrifice which rocked the populace of Detroit.

"Cult member Robert Harris induced member John J. Smith to present himself as a human sacrifice so that he might become "The Saviour of the World" Harris plunged a knife into Smith's heart as he lay prone on an improvised altar.

- "To their dismay, police learned that two additional members were slated as volunteer victims of sacrifice. That marked the beginning of the end for Dodd.

"He was arrested by Detroit police on May 25, 1933, under the name of Wallace Don Fard, alias W. D. Fard, Prophet W. D. Fard, W. D. Foard, Wallace Farad, Wali Farrad, Professor Ford, Farrad Mohammad and F. Mohammed Ali, founder of the Nation of Islam.

. "The official report cites Dodd as being "the leader of a VooDo0 cult with the following of several thousand Negro men and women."

"It states that Dodd admitted his teachings "were strictly a racket" and that he was "getting all the money out of it he could".

"Dodd was ordered out of Detroit.

"According to his former common-law wife, Dodd went from there to Chicago and became a traveling salesman for a mail order tailor.

"Working his way through the Midwest, Dodd arrived in Los Angeles in the spring of 1934.

"White Robes

"He was driving a new car and was garbed in flowing white robes. '

"Dodd's attempt at a reconciliation with his wife failed. He remained for two weeks, visiting daily with his sonj to whom he had been sending sizable sus of money from time to time.

"Finally he sold his car and boarded a ship for New Zealand with the announcement he was going back to visit his relatives, including an uncle who had paid the fare for his trip to America in 1913.

"Thus the revered holy man to whom Black Muslims pray and whose February 26 birthday marks the opening of each annual convention of the black supremacy cult, returned to the land of his brith as close to Mecca as he has ever been.

"Beware of Phony Claims

"I, Elijah Muhammad, Messenger of Allah, told the Los Angeles "HeraldExaminer" Office on M0d¬Y=July 29 1963, that my followers and I will pay the Los Angeles "HeraldExaminer" Newspaper $100,000.00 one hundred. thousand dollars! to prove the headline charge "Black Muslim Founder Exposed As A White"! made against us; that we are following one Wallace Dodd with many aliases including the name, Fard; that he is the man that I am representing to my people as being Master Fard Muhammad Allah in Person! who appeared among us in Detroit, Michigan, in 1931 and is the same person Wallace Dodd!.

"The Los Angeles "Herald~Examiner" also printed his prison history in San Quentin Federal Penitentiary on a charge of peddling dope, and that he admitted he was teaching us.

"If he Dodd! was teaching for money in those panic days in Detroit, he did not get it from us. Mr. Dodd, undoubtedly, must have been teaching the white people if he received any money at all, because we did not have any._

We did not pay Mr. Fard any money to teach us and there are many who will verify this statement who are yet alive. We could hardly pay the rent of a hall in those days. '

"I would like to ask the Herald-Examiner to give us a minute closeup of this fake Mr. Dodd! who they wouldjlike to make the public believe is our Saviour. Even the description of this man's height and weight does not correspond to Master Fard Muhammad's, to Whom Praises are due forever! measurements. I know His height, His weight, the size of clothes and shoes.

"When Master Fard Muhamad left us, it was in 193A Again, let Mr. Dodd prove that he and I were together and that the lessons that I am teaching to my followers are from him, and where were they given to me and did he ever examine me on what he gave me, and where?

"There are many questions that I could ask this Mr. Dodd about, that would prove to the world that this man is a fake that the Los Angeles Herald- Examiner has published. We believe this by the rea- soning of such unfounded truth.

"Let the Herald-Examiner Newspaper put us in contact with this Mr. Wallace Dodd. We will show the world that the entire statement is false; that this Mr. Wallace Dodd is not Master Fard Muhamad, To Whom Praises are due forever.

"I have warned you against allowing the devils to trick you into believing their false propaganda which they are spreading all over the world.
