| Bomb Kills Florida Negro Leader

Blast Wrecks Room Where Couple Slept

By United Press © : MIMS, Fla., Dec. 26—Harry T, Moore, Florida chief of the National Association for Advancement of Colored People, was killed last night by a bomb that shattered his bedroom after he was warned of attempting to “put things over too fast.”

Mr. Moore's wi.c was seriously injured. The explosion ripped through their home while they were sleeping. a, Mr. Moore, 46, was state coordinator of the NAACP in Florida. He died en route to the hospital at Sanford, about 40 miles from this small east coast community midway between Jacksonville and Miami.

Wife to Recover

Mrs. Moore declined to say whether her husband had participated in his organization's activities in nearby Lake County after a sheriff recently shot two Negro prisoners who were handcuffed together. One of those victims died but the sheriff was cleared. Mr. Moore's 49-year-old wife, Harriett, was expected to recover from internal injuries and a serious hip bruise. Mrs. Moore said her husband had received no direct threats as tar as she knew, but “I know there has been talk around.” Asked if he had taken any part in the NAACP’s recent activities in Lake County, she said, “I'd rather not discuss that.” :

College Graduate

The death of Mr. Moore follows 10 dynamitings and attempted dynamitings of Jewish synagogs, a Negro housing project and a Catholic church in Miami since June. None of the Miami explosions has resulted in a death, however.
