Since the octopus controls all the weapons in the world, it makes sense they
also control the international peace foundations, the main purpose of which
is to direct the activity for peace into fund-raising.  That's why Diana had
to be killed; she was ignoring her fund-raising role and trying to gum up
the works involving selling mines.  She, like Jesus and Mother Teresa, was
trying to tell people that they could minister to the sick and needy without
going through an organized church or without setting up a trust fund.

Do the Paines unwittingly hold a piece of the assassination puzzle?
Documents reveal that they, like Lee Harvey Oswald, had associations with
people from the left wing, the right wing, and the intelligence community.
Michael Paine, described in numerous documents as a sullen loner, was a
wealthy man by 1963 standards. He existed in part on the largess of his rich
relatives, the Forbes of Massachusetts, and the influence of his stepfather,
Arthur Young, inventor of the Bell Helicopter. His real father was a
notorious Trotskyite who was on the FBI Security Index. Although from
disparate worlds, Michael Paine and Lee Harvey Oswald share many
psychological and biographical similarities, raising the question, "Was the
relationship between them more extensive than Michael Paine is willing to
admit?"...

On the surface, Ruth's background seemed "liberal," even "left." Active with
the Quakers since college, Ruth was the chair of the East-West Contact
Committee, a cultural organization dedicated to bringing about world peace
through greater contact with the Russian people. Out of this experience grew
Ruth's long lasting efforts to learn the Russian language, and her
friendship with Marina Oswald. In reality, however, three members of her
family were involved with intelligence agencies, and several documents show
Ruth to be virulently anti-communist. Ruth Paine's motivations for taking in
Marina Oswald to her home are consistently described by her friends as
rooted in her religious faith and generous nature. But members of the Dallas
white Russian community may have had their own motivations for bringing
Marina and Ruth together. And why might the conspirators want to see them
separated after the assassination? Her poltical activities in years
subsequent to the assassination---for example, her journeys to NIcaragua on
behalf of "Pro-Nica," may provide clues to her role in the events of 1963.

"The Warren Commission portrayed Ruth Paine as a very devout, humble, good
Samaritan woman, who by cruel circumstances of fate just happened to get
caught up in one of our country's greatest tragedies," Steve Jones began.
"Now this may be true---but it may not be true. From studying the FBI
documents, Secret Service documents, and Ruth Paine's testimony before the
grand jury of the Clay Shaw trial in New Orleans, we get the indication that
Ruth Paine was not quite the woman that she pretended to be, or that the
government told us she was."

For example, her family background, Jones said. "Ruth's father William Avery
Hyde served in the OSS during World War Two...We came across an FBI document
that stated the CIA had approached Hyde about running an educational
cooperative alliance in Vietnam in 1957, but for some unknown reason they
decided against that." Hyde was also a high-ranking executive for Nationwide
Insurance Company, Jones said, and travelled abroad frequently.

>From 1965 he was on leave from Nationwide to work for the Agency for
International Development (AID), a mysterious agency about which not much is
known. "There is much evidence that AID was a CIA front," Jones went on.
Quoting former Ohio governor John Gilligan, who headed AID during the Carter
administration, "At one time AID field offices were infiltrated from top to
bottom with CIA people. The idea was to plant operatives into every type of
activity we had overseas---government, volunteer, religious---every kind."

Ruth Paine also stated in her grand jury testimony that her father was "on
loan from Nationwide to the government's International Cooperation Alliance,
known as ICA, while travelling abroad. The years for this are unknown."
George DeMohrenschildt, suspected by many researchers of being Lee Oswald's
CIA "babysitter" in Dallas, claimed in his Warren Commission testimony that
he travelled abroad while working for ICA. "We came across a document,"
Jones said, "that stated in 1957, DeMohrenschildt was working for ICA while
he was living in Yugoslavia. There is also evidence that ICA was used as a
CIA front, but there is precious little information about this organization.

"Could it be," Jones wondered, "that this businessman William Avery Hyde was
recruited by the CIA, and that while doing insurance business abroad also
worked as an asset for the intelligence organization? If Ruth's father had
been a loyal, longtime asset, could this possibly have inspired Ruth to want
to serve her country by collaborating with the CIA...like father, like
daughter?

"These are not accusations, but they are reasonable questions that we must
ask based on the evidence as presented in the government documents...

"The grand jury testimony [of the Clay Shaw trial] is fascinating to read,
because Garrison asked very probing questions. You can really tell Ruth
squirmed on the hot seat. It's much different than the Warren Commission
testimony."

Jones also discussed Ruth Paine's trip around the United States in late
summer, 1963.


On Saturday, July 27th, Ruth left the Dallas suburb of Irving in her 1955
Chevy station wagon to begin an itinerary that would take her through the
Northeast. She took along her two small children, ages two and four. Before
leaving, she wrote Marina Oswald in New Orleans about her expected itinerary
and gave her addresses so that Marina could write to her. She also made
arrangements for a New Orleans Quaker lady by the name of Ruth Kloepfer to
check in on Marina. Ruth's trip began with a five day journey to Nashuon
Island off the coast of Massachusetts next to Marth'a Vineyard, where upon
arrival she would spend almost two weeks at the summer home of her wealthy
in-laws. Along the way however, she stopped to visit friends in Indiana,
Ohio, and NYC. While with her in-laws, Arthur and Ruth Forbes Young, at
Nashuon Island, she apparently made a side trip to Vermont to visit a
college she had once briefly attended. On August 11 she left for Paoli,
Pennsylvania outside of Philadelphia to stay at the Young's primary
residence. While in the Philadelphia area for almost two weeks, she would
visit more friends.
In late August, she traveled south to suburban Washington, DC to visit her
sister, Sylvia Hyde, and some oldfriends by the name of Houghtons. While
there she attended the famous August 28th Civil Rights march in Washington
DC. She never mentioned this march to anyone and her participation in it
would not have been learned but for an FBI interview with the Houghtons.
Ruth then returned to the Philadelphia area for the Labor Day holiday and
from there went to Columbus, Ohio to visit her mother for one day, then on
to Yello Springs, Ohio to visit her brother for a few days. Yellow Springs
happened to be the location of Antioch College, where Ruth obtained her B.A.
degree in 1955. Ruth then continued westward to Indiana again and visited
more friends. During this leg of her trip, the 6th Street Baptist Church in
Birmingham, Alabama was bombed on September 15th. Apparently moved by this
tragedy, Ruth travelled to Birmingham to donate money to the church. From
there she travelled to New Orleans where she arrived on September 24th to
meet up with the Oswalds. She also met up with Ruth Kloepfler while at the
Oswalds'. Mrs. Kloepfler, incidentally, was active in the "ban the bomb"
movement in New Orleans, yet has some interesting connections to Clay Shaw
as recently uncovered by other researchers. Ruth departs the next day for
Irving, Texas with Marina and the Oswalds' daughter June, while Oswald
disappears, presumably to Mexico.
