(Pan African Press) S T O C K H O L M , S w e d e n — " M o r e t h a n 75 B l a c k U . S . soldiers a r e i n exile here after deserting the A r m y i n protest against i t s w h i t e supremacy policies a n d against America's barbaric slaughter i n Viet N a m , " said D o n a l d Williams, a Black soldier w h o fled t o Stockholm f r o m F o r t Benning, Ga., t o escape shipment to V i e t N a m .

W I L L I A M S P O I N T E D O U T i n a n interview with M U H A M M A D S P E A K S t h a t a l t o g e t h e r s o m e 500 U .

" The y o u n g ex-sergeant spent three m o n t h s i n Sweden as co-chairman o f the A f r o - A m e r i c a n Deserters Committee. His m a i n duty w a s t o help find living quarters a n d jobs f o r U.S. servicemen w h o h a d deserted. " I only stayed three m o n t h s , " h e said, "because even though I k n e w I faced certain court m a r t i a l i n A m e r i c a , I felt I could d o m o r e back i n t h eStates t o help a w a k e n B l a c k people a n d fight t h e U . S . p o w e r structure." Williams admitted, however, that what he eventually faced i n A m e r i c a w a s worse t h a n anyt h i n g h e h a d expected.

Explaining how he managed t o go t o Stockholm while still i n the A r m y , Williams said he made u p his m i n d t o leave w h i l e stationed a t F t . Benning, G a . , w h e n h i s u n i t w a s a l e r t e d i n J u n e 1967 f o r d u t y i n V i e t Nam. " I t r i e d t o get out of the unit t h e n because I couldn't see f i g h t i n g i n V i e t N a m f o r a s o - c a l l e d f r e e d o m t h a t I didn't have i n m y o w n h o m e t o w n , " the Chicago exsoldier said.

I N J A N U A R Y o f 1968, h e w a s t r a n s f e r r e d t o M a r t i n A r m y Hospital i n F t . Benning, because h e h a d m a d e his v i e w s o n V i e t N a m k n o w n a n d i t w a s t h o u g h t b y A r m y brass t o b e i n "the best interests o f h i s u n i t " tHat h e b e sent s o m e w h e r e else. " A t this point I decided not t o become a U . S . tool in t h e race-politics i n A s i a , " W i l l i a m s said. H e a n d his f a m i l y m a d e plans f o r escape.

Williams changed his A r m y records t o indicate that his w i f e a n d t w o daughters w e r e l i v i n g i n Chicago, and not i nJackson, Miss., where they actually would be i n h i d i n g , w i t h t h e help o f friends.

He set t h e wheels into m o t i o n t o leave t h e States by first forging papers that would give h i m permission t o t a k e a 30-day l e a v e w i t h m i l i t a r y t r a n s p o r t a t i o n t o Germany. " W i t h m y phony orders, I went t o Dover A i r Force Base i n Delaware a n d caught a m i l i t a r y hop t o Germ a n y . I h a d been i n t h e A r m y seven years a t that t i m e , a n d I k n e w the w o r k i n g s o f the A r m y red tape.

I just used that knowledge. " W h e n I got t o F r a n k f o r t , G e r m a n y , I w e n t t o t h e railroad station a n d bought a ticket f o r Stockholm, avoiding the airport for obvious reasons. " A T C E N T R A L Station here, I w a l k e d u p t o t h e first policeman I s a w a n d told h i m I w a s a resister against the U.S. A r m y and that I was seeking political a s y l u m against the racist system i n the United States."

Williams explained t o t h e policeman, a n d later t o other Swedish officials that h e w a s not just dissenting against t h e w a r i n Viet N a m b u t against t h e whole exploitative system inside a n d outside—controlled b y white America. " T h e p o l i c e t o o k m e i n t o c u s t o d y f o r 24 h o u r s u n t i l t h e y could contact the l a w y e r h a n d l i n g o u r cases a n d get the necessary papers filled out. I t was a f o r m a l i t y only, b u t i t k i n d o f shook m e u p , " h e said.

Williams met several young Swedish "intellectuals," students a n d " e v e r y d a y w o r k i n g people," and h e said they a l l sympathized w i t h his plight. " T h e y started a fund raising campaign t o bring m y wife and children here," h e related. " T h e y raised m o r e t h a n $800 a n d I w a s a b l e t o s e n d m y f a m i l y tickets. W h e n they arrived, I felt i t w a s the happiest moment o fm y ljfe."

By ELSJAH M U H A M M A D Messenger of Allah The very words, " h o w t o eat t o live," is one o f t h e great values i n words for us. I n these words, w e see a n d w e a r e learning that w h a t w e p u t i n us as food, a t w h a t t i m e w e eat that food, a n d w h a t t y p e o f food w e eat, i s the k e y t o o u r life a n d death. W e can also use these words, " h o w t o e a t t o l i v e , " t o spell h o w w e destroy ourselves.

We m u s t look a t these words a n d teachings o f h o w t o e a t t o live i n a m o r e serious w a y . T h i s i s w h y w e suffer s o m u c h sickness and death. I t i s because w e d o not take h o w t o e a t t o live i n a m o r e serious w a y . T h e r e i s n o c o m m o n sickness that cannot b e healed b y p r o p e r eating o f t h e r i g h t foods. I , m y s e l f , k n o w ; h a v i n g experience o f b o t h t h e r i g h t k i n d o f foods a n d t h e w r o n g k i n d o f foods.

Allah (God) h a s Taught m e a n d I tried everything first, myself. I a m a self-experienced m a n a n d a n e x a m p l e o f w h a t A l l a h (God) Taught m e . I went f o r years without eating but one meal a d a y , and y e a r s w i t h e a t i n g o n e m e a l e v e r y f o r t y - e i g h t (48) h o u r s , a n d for a little while, I w a s eating o n e m e a l e v e r y three days. So, I k n o w these teachings o f A l l a h (God) a r e T r u e . Here o f late, I h a v e s u f f e r e d m a n y p a i n s from v e n t u r i n g a w a y f r o m e a t i n g r i g h t and eating at the proper time. Venturing a w a y from eating the w a y Allah (God) Taught m e caused m e discomfort, pains, a n d m i n o r sickness. I deliberately d i d this, i n s o m e instances, s o t h a t I w i l l k n o w w h a t happens when y o u a r e n o t following t h e Teachings. So, as i t i s w r i t t e n , i n a l l t h e i r afflictions, h e w a s afflicted ( m e a n i n g the Messenger o f God).

E a t i n g the proper food once a d a y w i l l keep y o u free o f sickness for a long t i m e ; probably f o r years. This, I k n o w b y self-experience.

By eating t w o o r three meals a day, y o u a r e inviting some days o f discomfort a n d illness t o yourself, a n d b y eating food t h a t does not b e l o n g t o t h e b o d y t h a t i t i s g o i n g i n t o , y o u a r e m a k i n g t r o u b l e for t h e body t o digest such foods a n d d r i n k s . W e suffer w i t h m a n y a i l m e n t s i n o u r bodies d u e t o t h e fact t h a t w e a r e p o u r i n g i n t o i t food that should not be p u t i n that body ( w h i c h i s the finest naturebuilt m a c h i n e r y o n E a r t h ) , a n d d u e t o t h e fact that w e a r e n o t waiting until the strength o r power of the poison i n the previous m e a l becomes weak, so that i t will be harmless w h e n t h e strength o f a n e w m e a l i s added. B u t , t w e n t y - f o u r (24) t o f o r t y - e i g h t (48) h o u r s w i l l d e s t r o y t h e p o i s o n from t h e p r e v i o u s m e a l a n d m a k e i t h a r m l e s s .

Eat w h e n y o u have exhausted t h e previous meal, Allah (God) Taught m e ; then fill u p a n d g o until this is exhausted, a n d then eat another meal. I t is logical. A s I keep repeating, w e d i g o u r own graves, and I m a y a d d here that w e bring about our o w n death w i t h o u r teeth.

Sugar diabetes can b e controlled b y eating the proper food i n such a w a y that y o u will never k n o w that y o u ever h a d i t a n d y o u will never see a n y signs o f i t . B u t , y o u m u s t n o t continue t o pour i n the body, p o w e r a n d strength o f sugar f r o m y o u r meals that adds to t h e s u g a r - s p i l l i n g o v e r i n y o u r b o d y . N a t u r a l l y , i t i s g o i n g t o reach o u t f o r something o r i t i s going t o flood itself after putting too m u c h sugar a n d starch i n t h e body. B u L some o f u s a r e so built upon eating w h a t w e w a n t that w e just cannot abstain from eating these starches a n d sweet foods. T h e s e things a r e n o t h i n g b u t friends t o t h e sugar diabetic condition. Stay a w a y f r o m i t a n d y o u w i l l live longer, for diabetes i s a n evil enemy. I t i s a n e n e m y t o both t h e flesh a n d bones o f t h e body.

I f y o u w i l l stop e a t i n g foods s u c h a s s u g a r a n d s t a r c h y foods, I k n o w y o u w i l l d o better. I h a v e been self-experienced i n e v e r y t h i n g , and I h a v e been a v i c t i m o f e v e r y t h i n g that y o u a r e a v i c t i m of, except cancer. I d o not t h i n k t h a t I h a v e cancer; b u t a s I m e n t i o n e d in this article before, T h e Last Messenger is n o t i m m u n e d t o t h e sickness a n d c o m p l a i n t s o f t h e c o m m o n people.

DISAGREEMENT NONE TRUST THE OTHER

T H E disagreement between t h e n a tions o fd i eearth is about o n e h u n d r e d percent, ( 1 0 0 % . ) O n eh u n d r e d percent ( 1 0 0 % ) disagreement with suspicion,

HATE TEACHINGS! E L I J A H

Messenger

M U H A M M A D o f Allah

The origin o f hate teachings comes f r o m t h e devil, w h o i s t h eoriginator o f ' h a t e .

O n e brothj e r d e s i r e d t o k i l l t h eo t h e r b r o t h e r s o t h a t G o d w o u l d n o tt a k e h i m f o ra n o b ' ject o flove.

This is t h esame thing that is going 1 o n today. E n v y a n djealousy o f God's L o v e a n dBlessings f o rt h e Righteous.

S o m u c h s o , that t h ew i c k e d h o p e s t o kill the Righteous. Hate, surely demands of sin. T h e devil hates Truth, because h e is n o t m a d e o fT r u t h . T h e r e f o r e , h e c a l l s T r u t h hate teachings, because t h e t r u t h is a g a i n s t h i s w o r k s o f e v i l , a n di t b r i n g s t h e m , manifestly, before t h eeyes o f t h e Righteous. This, h e calls hate; but' i ti s t h e T r u t h t h a t h ehates, a n d h ei s h o p i n g t h a t y o u w i l l j o i n h i m i nh a t i n g t h e T r u t h as h ehates it.

Actually, they were made t o hate Truth, though they k n o w Truth; b u t their actual nature w a sn o tmade o f T r u t h . A st h eJ e s u s d e c l a r e d ; t h e r e w a s

T h e y w e r e t h eo r i g i n a t o r s o f r a c i s m , not y o u a n d m e .A n d , a n yrace that thinks a n y t h i n g o f i t srace is a racist.

W e cannot love o u rrace unless w e a r e for that race. T h i s i s another trick that t h e d e v i l i su s i n g o n y o u . T h i s i st o m a k e you love h i m a n dhispeople.

T h i s is intelligent a n d decent. This, t h ew h i t e m a n k n o w s .

W e a l l are racists w h o h a v e t w o cents worth o fknowledge, because racism is o n l y t h el o v e o f y o u r o w n r a c e . B u t , y o u love other t h a n y o u r o w n race, a n d y o u , w a n t t oj o i n i na n dl o v e e v e r y b o d y . T h i s is y o u r d a m n a t i o n , M r . P r e a c h e r ; b e cause everybody isn o t t ob e loved. I t i a o n l y t h eRighteous w h o a r et ob e loved.

If everybody ist ob e loved, G o dw o u l d not h a v e s e ta J u d g m e n t f o r t h e w i c k e d .

He is strongly opposed to the establishment by the Nixon administration of an anti-ballistic missile system. He indicates that the ABM comes at the end of a long chain of outrageous and costly expenditures in the name of national defense. In the years Since World War II, the U.S. has spent $l-trillion for national defense, over $550-bHHon in the last ,10 years alone.

A billion dollars is a sum hard 'to fathom. It is a thousand millions or $1,000,000,000. A trillion dollars; is a thousand billions or $1,000,000,000,000.

THE PROJECTED cost of the ABM is $7-billion (the budget of New York City is slightly more than $6.5-billion, although it is bound to cost $10 or $12 billion, as it always does.

McDonalds by

(Special to Muhammad Speaks) CLEVELAND—'Black residents of Cleveland have imposed a crushing boycott on five McDonald restaurants in Cleveland after owners of the chain went back on an agreement to sell the restaurants located within the Black community to experienced Black businessmen.

THE PRICE of each restaurant Was put at $180,000 at first.

But after each meeting with McDonald officiate and four prospective Black buyers, the price was raised.

Finally, the price was jacked up to $250,000—a familiar tactic of whites doing "free enterprise" business with Blacks—and when the African Americans were still prepared to buy the restaurants, the talks were suddenly broken off.

The men who want to buy the restaurants (which do $2 million worth of business each year) had announced that they would channel some of the profits back into the Black community, although they did not spell out in just what form this channeling would be done.

In response to the blatant bigotry of MfcDonalds—which has paid for several nationwide right-wing advertisements againSt the anti-war movement, the student movement, the Black revolution and so forth—the Afro-American community ha s boycotted the restaurants so successfully that they have all been closed down.

But to make the boycott even more effective, The Operation Black Unity united front has urged African Americans across the country to boycott McDonalds hamburger Stands.

In a press release they said that McDonalds makes gigantic profits by selling small supposed-

pay attention to the law, and will continue to extract their traditional interest rates running to 1,000-2,000 per cent and up a year. These hoodlums are now, and probably will remain, just about the sole source of credit for those who are forbidden credit by ! all legitimate lenders.

The law will require that any installment credit contract spell out all important details on credit costs. It will not control oral misrepresentations of credit costs by door-to-door operators who may persuade a person to sign without reading a contract involving steep credit charges.

T H E MOST INHUMAN practice however, is the castration of young boys. Refugees tell of how the police and the soldiers using a piier-like instrument with flat pincers, would crack like a nut, the delicate testicles of innocent boys.

As the refugees flee to Zambia and Botswana, they leave many of their friends and loved ones behind either missing, arrested or dead.

T H E N U M B E R reported missing can't be determined at all.

Many have fled into the Republic of Botswana. The exodus of refugees both into Zambia and Botswana hasn't ended. The refugees tell horror stories of how South African army and police carry out their sadistic activities. On entering a village, they completely cordon off the entire village so that nobody could slip out unnoticed.

Next they arrest all men and all boys above the age of 14.

Messenger of A l l a h Presents

rogram Ufyat tfje Jflusltms: liant This is the question asked most frequently by both the whites and the blacks. The answers to this question I shall state as simply as possible.

1. We want freedom. We want a full and complete freedom.

2 . We want justice. Equal justice under the law. We want justice applied equally to all, regardless of creed or class or color.

3 . We want equality of opportunity. We want equal membership in society with the best in civilized society.

4. We want our people in America whose parents or grandparents were descendants from slaves, to be allowed to establish a separate state or territory of their own—either on this continent or elsewhere. We believe that our former slave masters are obligated to provide such land and that the area must be fertile and minerally rich. We believe that our former slave masters are obligated to maintain and supply our needs in this separate territory for the next 2 0 to 2 5 years—until we are able to produce and supply our own needs.

Since w ecannot getalong with t h e m i n peace a n d equality, iafter giving t h e m 400 years o f o u r sweat and blood and receiving in return some o f t h eworst treatment h u m a n beings have ever experienced, w e believe o u r contributions t o this land a n dt h e suffering forced upon us b y white America, justifies our d e m a n d f o r complete separation i n a state o r t e r r i t o r y o f o u r o w n . ^ 5.

We want every black m a n and w o m a n t o h a v e t h e freedom t o a c c e p t o r r e j e c t b e i n g separated f r o m t h eslave master's children and establish a land o f their o w n .

We know that the above plan for the solution of the black and white conflict is the best and only answer to the problem between two people.

6. W e w a n t a n i m m e d i a t e e n d t o t h e p o lice b r u t a l i t y a n d m o b attacks against t h e socalled Negro throughout the United States.

We believe that the Federal government should intercede t o see that black m e n and w o m e n tried in white courts receive justice in -accordance with t h e laws o f t h e land—or allow u s to build a n e w nation for ourselves, dedicated t o justice, freedom and liberty.

Under such schooling system w e believe we will m a k e a better n a t i o n o fpeople. T h e United States government should provide, free, a l l necessary text books a n d equipment, schools a n d college buildings.

We believe in equality—as a nation — of equals. We do not believe that we are equal with our slave masters In the status of "freed slaves."

We recognize and respect American citizens as independent peoples and we respect their laws which govern this nation.

9. W E B E L I E V E that the offer of integration is hypocritical and is made by those who are trying to deceive the black peoples into believing that their 400-year-old open enemies of freedom, justice and equality are, all of a sudden, their "friends." Furthermore, we believe that such deception is intended to prevent black people from realizing that the time in history has arrived for t(ie separation from the whites of this nation.

If the white people are truthful about their professed friendship toward the sc£called Negro, they can prove it by dividing up America with their slaves.
