In this mandate, of the United Klans o -America, Inc., for the eleim oz :Orth Carolina, was removed from hi- rosition effective June 7, 1967, and was -divested of all powers and prvileges of his office. 1 By this same mandate and effective on the same dr-e, .Imperial Wizard Robert- M-/Shelton was suspended fro!- his position until further notice by/this committee. This mandate was issued after this committee had made extensive inquiry into the -controvervsy existing in the Realm of North Carolina. and the action was not taken lightly a nd the :m andate was issued only after 5erious ar.j e.:gthy deliberations.' The action was 'taken concerning :ter .ith fcllowing listed allegations, among others, were ci~-r:nined to be valid: was electid in for a two-year ter., o of fice.

He has failed to obtain co.petent le:;ul counsel to enforce the klan's rights in the Realm of North Carolina. The action set forth in the mrandatc of xthis committee of June 5, 1967, concerning Imperial Wizard Robert N. Shelton ' was taken after the following allegations concerning Mr. Shelton ,.ere found to have substance: 1. Mr. Shelton was aware of the situation in North Carolina Realm of North Carolina. The action set forth in the mrandatc of xthis committee of June 5, 1967, concerning Imperial Wizard Robert N. Shelton ' was taken after the following allegations concerning Mr. Shelton ,.ere found to have substance: 1. Mr. Shelton was aware of the situation in North Carolina invol.vin the personal misconduct and dereliction of and failed to take action. 2. In addition, Mr. Shelton has failed to provide the klan with an overall policy which the mass of American patriots could recognize and applaud. 3. He has failed to provide the Realms with literL. re and klan material to enable the varius state organizations to continue to grow and prosper. For the above stated reasons, bo'h d Mr. Shelton were the subject of the action take,: by this co.mittee as previously stated and this present mran3at: i: being issued to notify all persons within the Klan Empire talt the original . action of this committee is hereby affirmed and is declared to be in full force and effect. It is the considered opinion of the members of' this committee that if had been permitted to remain in the position of n North Carolijra he most surely would iave led our people in North Carolina udo'wn the road dstruction. This committee cannct undo the actions which has permitted and condoned, but it can attempt to prevnt x;.ure reoccurrences by his removal. Some I- his acts of indiscretion orior to our mandate may still lead some of our brothers into trouble and disrae. This conmmittee could not permit, in good conscience, ito continue any longer., Friends of this committee have made avai'"r ' the .public statements of Mr. Pobert M. Shelton and issued on June 13 and June 14, 1967, denying the exiscnc' o tnis committee and calling upon the FBI -nd the postal authorities to attack this committee on the basis that our mandate constituted a m2il fraud. This committee considers these '? t staterents anld the statements of Mr. Shelton and on.erning calling in the FBI and the postal authCr : - to be an atterpt to intimidate and blackmail this committec: and further, denial of this committee's existence is merely a ;means of self-preservation in anieffort to prolong their tenure in office. However, their dictatorial authority and their attempt at intimidation and blackmail can never reach the members of this honorable ccmmittee. 2 w-. p. - The image appears to be a page from an official document, likely a memo or report, with typed text forming the majority of the content. There are several black ink stamps or markings at the top of the page, including a circle and a dot, possibly indicating routing or verification. The page also contains handwritten annotations, most notably a large "67c" in the bottom left corner, and a smaller "2." in the bottom right. The majority of the text is black, but there are several significant black redactions obscuring portions of the content throughout the page. There are no photographs, diagrams, or visual representations of individuals or facilities present. The image displays a declassified FBI document, likely from COINTELPRO, characterized by typed text and distinct visual elements. There are black circular stamps at the top of the page, along with handwritten annotations in the margins, including "btc" and a page number "3." Extensive black redactions are present throughout the text, obscuring specific names, dates, and details of the operational directives. The document appears to be a report or memorandum, indicated by the header "CE 157-281" and the concluding page number "3."
