Its leader, Elijah Mohammed, claims to have been sent by Allah, the Supreme Being, to lead the Negroes out of slavery. Members fanatically follow the teachings of Allah as interpreted by Mohammed; they disavow allegiance to the United States; and they are taught they need not obey the laws of the United States. Allegations have been received that its members may resort to acts of violence in carrying out its avowed purpose of destroying non-Muslims and Christianity. Coverage by technical means of the Boston, Massachusetts, Temple of the MCI, could provide information of value concerning the aims, activities and purposes of this organization in the Boston area. Therefore, I recommend authorization of a surveillance on the Boston Temple of the MCI, 552.Columbus Avenue, Boston, Massachusetts, or at any other address to which this temple may be moved. .
