The Suspension of Malcom" X— Malcolm X, chief minister of vitriol to Black Muslim leader Elijah Muhammad, has been sus- pended for telling a laughing, applauding audi- ence after the death of President Kennedy: (It was a case of) “chickens coming home to roost. 34 THE CHATTANOOGA T_MES “Being an old farm boy myself, chickens com- ng home to roost never did make me sad; they've CHATTANOOGA, TINN 3 . * always made me glad.” X now says he “never should have said wh — Uf said.” He is critical of reports which, he saigq. :\ “took all the salt out of the bread and presenteji m~aty only the salt. But the salt never should have od been there... anything that Mr. Muhammad 4 i — does is all right with me. I believe absolutely in Hi ‘ his wisdom and his authority.” | : Contrition is of course something new for X. —- | But neither Muhammad nor all he stands for and . } : endorses could have produced an expectation of : anything else. The Black Muslim creed of hate and violence is one more philosophy that has been revealed in al its’wrongness by the killiag of the Presi- dent. And the Black Muslima are sure to suffer as a result. ———, — Date: 12/8/63 sition: uthor: MARTIN 8.
