Memorandum Number Ten:
Keeping The Lid On The Pot
The Order's control of history, through foundations and the
American Historical Association, has been effective. Not so much
because of outright censorship, although that is an important element,
but more because of the gullibility of the American "educated public".
From time to time their plans go awry. The bubbling pot of political
manipulation - it's called conflict management on the inside -
threatens to spill over into public view. It is extraordinary how
newspaper editors, columnists, TV and radio commentators, and
publishers either lack insight to see beyond the superficial or are scared
witless to do so. Even worse, the educated public, the 30-40 million degree
holders, lets these opinion molders get away with it.
Outright censorship has not been too effective. There has certainly
been a campaign to suppress revisionist interpretations of history
Witness Harry Elmer Barnes in The Struggle Against The Historical
Blackout:
It may be said, with great restraint, that, never since the Dark and
Middle Ages, have there been so many powerful forces organized
and alerted against the assertion and acceptance of historical truth
as are active today to prevent the facts about the responsibility for
the second World War and its results from being made generally
accessible to the American public. Even the great Rockefeller
Foundation frankly admits (Annual Report, 1946, p. 188) the
subsidizing of a corps of historians to anticipate and frustrate the
development of any neo-Revisionism in our time. And the only
difference between this Foundation and several others is that
has been more candid and forthright about its politics.
This author's personal experience of attempted outright censorship
was at the Hoover Institution. Stanford University. when the Director
attempted to suppress publication of my then forthcoming National
Suicide: Military Aid To The Soviet Union. The facts weren't in quest-
tion. Unfortunately, the book offended the Nixon-Kissinger program to
aid the Soviets while they were aiding the North Vietnamese - so in
effect, Americans were being killed by our own technology. In this case
neither author nor publisher was in a mood to listen, and the Establish-
ment put tail between legs and called it a day.
More effective than outright censorship is use of the left-right political
spectrum to neutralize unwelcome facts and ideas or just condition citizens to
think along certain lines.
The "left" leaning segment of the press can always be relied upon to
automatically assault ideas and information from the "right" and vice- versa.
In fact. media outlets have been artificially set up just for this purpose:
both Nation and New, Republic on the "left" were financed by
Willard Straight, using Payne Whitney (The Order) funds. On the
"right" National Review, published by William Buckley (The Order) runs
a perpetual deficit. presumably made up by Buckley.
Neither the independent right no; the independent left sees the trap
They are so busy firing at each other they've mostly forgotten to look
behind the scenes. And The Order smugly claims control of the
"moderate" center. A neat game, and it's worked like a charm. But the
establishment has a problem . . .
In Fact, It Has Several Problems
They are on the inside looking out. We are on the outside looking in
They may call us "peasants" but we have the advantage of knowing
about the real world and its infinite diversity. Their global objectives are
dreams based on skewed information. Dangerous dreams, but still
dreams.
(1) The Order Lives In A Cultural Straightjacket
All the power in the world is useless without accurate information. If
you meet these people, as this author has more or less casually over 30
years, one impression comes to the forefront - they are charming but
with a limited perception of the world. They may have global ambitions,
they may act politically like miniature power houses, but their
knowledge of the world comes from an in-group and those who play
along with the in-group. And the in-group lacks morality and diversity.
It's a kind of jet set politburo. Charming, power-hungry and myopic
simultaneously.
All it can offer to the outsider is an invitation, almost an ultimatum,
"You are part of the establishment." Which has as much interest for
many as a Frederick Bundy fish fillet. Perhaps one of the exception is
house conservative William Buckley, Jr. - at least his cynicism is
marked by witty incisiveness. The rest are a pretty sad bunch.
(2) An Easy Prey For the Ambitious
Limited perception makes members of The Order a target and an
easy prey for the ambitious outsider . . . who needs only the ability to
say the right things at the right time to the right people, coupled with a
sense of unscrupulousness. Henry Kissinger is a prime example - an
outsider who wants desperately to stay on the inside. More devious
than clever, but expert at using deviousness for his own ends.
Conservative readers may not agree, but Secretary of State Dean
Acheson, who defended a guilty Alger Hiss to the bitter end, was prob-
ably more stupid than culpable. Which leads us to,
(3) Genetic Problems
Extensive intermarriage among the families raises a serious question
of genetic malfunctions. Membership lists are heavily laced with Dodge,
Whitney, Phelps, Perkins, Norton. Putnam used as middle (maternal) names.
Cultural inhibitions are obvious, the intellectual limitations from
genetic factors are more difficult to analyze and describe.
(4) Shallow Power Base
It may be as Rosenbaum comments, that The Order is "incredibly
,powerful". On the other hand, it is also incredibly weak - there is no
philosophic or cultural depth to The Order.
Diversity is strength and The Order lacks diversity.
The vast bulk of the American people, that giant melting pot of
Anglo, Germanic, Slavic, Hispanic, black, yellow, and who knows what
else has been suckered. Many of them know it. Some are now going to
know by whom.
When they've overcome the disbelief. the shock and perhaps some
fear, they are surely going to say "What do we do?".
The great strength of individualism, an atomistic social order where
the individual holds ultimate sovereignty, is that any counter revolution
to an imposed social order where the State is boss, can take a million
-roads and a million forms.
No one is going to create an anti-The Order movement. That would
be foolish and unnecessary. It could be infiltrated, bought off, or
diverted all too easily. Much too easily.
Why play by the rules set by the enemy?
The movement that will topple The Order will be extremely simple
and most effective. It will be ten thousand or a million Americans who
come to the conclusion that they don't want the State to be boss, that
they prefer to live under the protection of the Constitution. They will
make their own independent decision to thwart The Order, and it will
take ten thousand or a million forms.
The only weakness is communication. The Order has so wrecked.
education that reading comprehension is difficult for many - that's part
of the brainwashing program. But there are more than enough readers
Most people prefer to talk, anyway.
The program of The Order might work in Russia,. which has a history
of obedience to the State; it's barely working in Poland, while in
England "The Group" survives because enough of class structure and
attitude remain. It can never work in the United States.
Conclusions
In the first introductory volume we have laid out the preliminary groundwork
and suggested some hypotheses we need to examine. An
understanding of The Order, the havoc it has wreaked on American
society, its plans for future havoc - perpetual war for perpetual peace
- is a logical step by step process.
The next step is to look at education. Our present educational chaos
can be traced to three members of The Order: Daniel Coit Gilman (First
President of University of California and First President of John
Hopkins University), Timothy Dwight (twelfth President of Yale Univer-
sity) and Andrew Dickson White (First President of Cornell University).
Gilman imported the experimental psychology of Hegelian
physiologist Wilhelm Wundt from Germany. This psychology was
grafted onto the American education system through the educational
laboratories at Columbia and Chicago University. And they moved a
familiar name. John Dewey, a pure Hegelian in philosophy, along the
fast track in his career. This has been aptly termed "The Leipzig Connec-
tion" by Lance J. Klass and Paolo Lionni.
Then we shall look at the Foundations, how these were captured by
The Order and their gigantic funds used to finance a Hegelian educa-
tional system designed to condition future society. It is doubtful if John
D. Rockefeller or Mrs. Russell Sage, and certainly the Ford family, ever
quite understood how their philanthropies were used for a long-term
conditioning plan.
It is also doubtful if The Order forecast the public backlash of the
1970s and 1980s - not all children have succumbed to the social con-
ditioning brainwashing, parents have more than once risen in part
revolt, private schools have sprouted like spring flowers in the desert
and perhaps enough academics have slipped through a net design to
contain and neutralize independent research and thinking.
After we have looked at education and foundations we still have to
work our way through the system of "perpetual war for perpetual
peace." How The Order has financed revolution and profited from war.
The objective? To keep the conflict boiling because conflict for Hegel is
essential for change and the forward motion of society. Then we have
to look at the financial system and the Federal Reserve. The Order was
there right from the start.
In conclusion we must emphasize one point. An understanding of:
The Order and its modus operandi is impossible unless the reader holds
in mind the Hegelian roots of the game plan. Hegelianism is alien to
grass roots America. The national character is straightforward and to the
point, not devious and tortuous. The grass roots are still closer to the
American Revolution. the Jeffersonian Democrats. the classical liberal
school of Cobden and Bright in England, and the Austrian School of
Economics where Ludwig von Mises is the undisputed leader.
These schools of thought have been submerged in the public eye by
the pirate-like onslaught of The Order and its many minions, but they
still very much represent the daily operation of American society. From
oil billionaire Bunker Hunt in Dallas, Texas to the seventeen year old
black trying to "survive" in the Los Angeles ghetto, individual initiative is
still more than obvious in American society.
A Statest system is the objective of The Order. But in spite of constant
prattling about "change" by zombie supporters - such a system is
foreign to deeply held beliefs in this country.
Above all the reader must - at least temporarily while reading this
work - put to one side the descriptive clich�s of left and right, liberal
and conservative, communist and fascist, even republican and
democrat. These terms may be important for self recognition, they do
provide a certain reassurance, but they are confusing in our context
unless seen as essential elements in a game plan. You will never
understand The Order if you try to label it right or left.
A Robert Taft and a William Buckley on the right are just as important
for the forward motion of society, the fundamental change desired by
The Order, as a William Sloan Coffin and a Harry Payne Whitney (who
financed the left). Their conflict is essential for change.
Which brings us to HYPOTHESIS NUMBER THREE: THE ORDER
USES THE HEGELIAN DIALECTIC PROCESS TO BRING ABOUT
A SOCIETY IN WHICH THE STATE IS ABSOLUTE, i.e., ALL
POWERFUL.
This hypothesis, of course, reflects the gulf between The Order and
American society. The gulf stems from the differing views of the rela-
tionship between the State and the individual.
Which is superior? Our whole way of life is based on the assumption
that the individual is superior to the State. That the individual is the
ultimate holder of sovereignty. That the State is the servant of the
people. It's deeply engrained within us.
The Order holds the opposite - that the State is superior; that the
common man (the peasant) can find freedom only by obedience to the
State.
Now. of course, the State is a fiction. So who or what controls the
State?
Obviously, The Order.
