The two encleeed articles deal primarily witha speech and subsequent impremptu press conference given -by LIVINGSTON WINGATE on 10/lh/E5, before the eaeternregional conference of the Urban League at the BelmontPlaza em-.91, New Yo-rk. CityLA.,.!

WINGATE is the Executive Directnr of the Harlemanti-poverty program known as Harlem Youth OppertunitiesUnlimited Q Aeseeiete-d eeeeeeie;-; Teams {H;�.B'£0U~AC?E??. Betharticles point out that WINGATE has been critiaized forhis handling of the program and that he is currently underinvestigation by the Manhattan District Attorney*e Qffieeand the Federal authorities following charges of fiscal

mismanagement §i9292

In his apeech and press conference, accerdingto these articles, WINGATE denied any fiscal wrengdoingand eieimed the spending Qf certain menies an his pertwee necessary to avert racial violence in Harlem during ;the past summer. His main theme was that if anythinghappened to HAHYOU»ACT there weuld definitely be racial Vviolenee. On this latter paint, WINGATE referred to a Vmyaterious "armed" graup cf Nears youth whe are "prepared 'to die" in a struggle against white people� He refused rto identify by name this group stating he reared for hislire if he talked too much. He further implied that only ,

HA1-� YOU-ACT was stopping this group frum aecting.@~'!

Both articles indicated that WINGATE was apparentlyspeaking of a Black Mu�lim-oriented extremist youth group -known as the "Five Percentera." The "Tribune" article thanset forth observations on this group which this paperdeveleped in an "independent inve��isatien� during th� Pa5tthree weekskgg}

The NYGPD is continuing to conduct a full-time,extensive investigation of the "Five Percenters", whichincludes �aily interrogation of gang members and nightlysurveillanees of them. The investigation is being handledby a special squad of the NYGPD Youth Division, known asthe "Special Unit." The NYGPD feela that this extensivecoverage has succeeded in detering-the activity of thegang and has epened the way for numereue arrests for assaults,

muggings and marijuana smoking charges by gang members.Q§}

The NYCPD investigation has determined that thereare approximately 200 "Five Pereenters" in NYC, ranging inage from 12 to 21. Appreximetely 125 er them are centered ,in Harlem, areund the 120 series ef streets, bounded by - �Tth and Lenox Avenues. The remainin� 75 yeuthe are scatteredover Bronx, Breeklyh and Queene, with the most eoneentrai��in the Fart Greene area of Brooklyn and the St. Marys Paraarea of the Bronx. The gang is reepensible fer numerous _assaults and muggings, chiefly aime� at whites on the fringe ;area of Harlem. However, if the gang is unable be find a "white victim they have no reaerv=tions about choosing aNe r - - . as a so cause» a ~ a

The gang is composedof approximately 200 youths in New York City ranging in age from

* 12 to 21. Approximately 125 of them are centered in the Harlemsection of New York City around the 120 series of streets boundedby Seventh and Lenox Avenues. The remainder are scattered

meaning of "Five Percent� is that 85% of the Negroes are cattlewho Just follow along, 10% are Uncle Toms while the remaining5%, which they represent, are the real leaders of the Negropeople. The Muslim type of indoctrination which they receive,in addition to the adoption of e Muslim name, is the memorizationof the questions and answers put out by the N01 and whkxh theirnew members must learn. This list of questions and answersappears to have originated with Jowars, who was an N01 memberunder the name of Clarence 1 X Smith and undoubtedly obtainedit when he joined the N�l��o

This source further advised that the "Five Peroenters"have been responsible for numerous assaults and mugglngs, chieflyaimed at whites on the fringe area of Harlem, However, if awhite victim cannot be located they have no reservation aboutchoosing a Negro victim. They have also caused a greet deal oftrouble in schools, chiefly Junior High School number 120 stMadison Avenue and 120th Street in Harlem, where they disruptclasses, demand to be called by their Muslim names and haveassaulted som teachers� Since the jailing of Jowers, Howelland white they have no overall leadership although they instructeach other in Muslim-type ideology and the practice of Judo andkarate.

REVOLUTIONARY ACTION MOVEMENT

�n Nevember 3, 196%, a source made available adocument entitled "The Revelutionary Action Movement Manifesto,the document having been ebtained by the source from anindividual know to be a member ef the Revolutionary Action

Movement RAM! !This document stated, in part, that RAM was officially

organized in the Winter of 1963 by Afro�Ameeicans who supportthe revolutionary objectives of ROBERT F, WILLIAMS, nowresiding in Cuba, and his concept ef organized violence toachieve the liberation of the Afro»American people in the� ' 'United States. This Manifesto disclosed that RAM had oriented

its program to one of education and political revolution andthe organization of a "black" political party with revolutionaryobjectives, having recognized the need for a "black revolutien"that could and would seize power. RAM philosophy is describedin this document as one of revolutionary nationalism, that is,one involving the struggles of the nonwhite races of the worldagainst exploitation and enslavement by the white capitalist

and imperialist nations E~�}Regarding WILLIAMS, it should be noted that on

August 28, 1961, a Federal warrant was issued at Charlotte,North Carolina, charging him with Unlawful Flight to AvoidProsecution for the crime of kidnapping, Subsequent to theissuance of this warrant, WILLIAMS fled the United States toCuba, where he new publish a monthly newsletter entitled"The Crusader" from Havanat:p�!

This source in September, 196a, advised RAM isdedicated to the overthrow of the capitalist system in theUnited States, by violence if necessary, and to its replacement

by a soeialistic system oriented toward the chinese communistinterpretation ef MarKiSm~L¬ni�ism. RAM is entirely nonwhitein membership, clandestine in nature, and ewes its primaryallegiance to the "Bandung world," that la, the nonwnite racesof the world rather than to any national entity, as suchQ992!

On November 16, 196%, a second source advised helearned recently from an HAM member that the organizationbegan in Detroit, Michigan, largely under the impetus ofDON FREEMAN, described as the "Father" of RAM and referred to

This source stated in May, 1965, there has been nofermal headquarters, as such, fer RAM but that headquartershave been with FREEMAN since he has played such a dominant rolein the leadership of and has directed the policies andactivities cf the 0rganization§&_w

Within recent months, according to the second source,diseension within RAM has become evident and some dissatisfactionwith FHEENA��5 leadership has arisen. So f r ae is knewn, how-ever, he r�mains the titular leader of RAM.E§.92

This document stated, in part, that RAM was officiallyorganized in the winter of 1963 by Afro~Americans who supportthe revolutionary objectives of RGBERT F.

Regarding WILLIAMS, it should be noted that onAugust 28, 1961, e Federal warrant was issued at Charlotte;North Carolina, charging him with Unlawful Flight to AvoidProsecution for the crime of kidnapping. Subsequent to theissuance of this warrant, WILLIAMS fled the United 5tateS toQuba, where he now publishes e monthly newsletter entitleo�The Crusader� from Havana92lLa92
