CHAPTER 13 THE ROCKEFELLERS

EDWARD JAY EPSTEIN BOOK EXCERPTS http://edwardjayepstein.com/rockefellers/chap1.htm

Surrounded by round-the-clock armed guards and a barricade of barbed wire, the body of Laura Celeste Spelman Rockefeller awaited burial for some twenty weeks between March and August, 1915, while her husband John Davidson Rockefeller avoided angry mobs and process servers. At that time Rockefeller was perhaps the wealthiest man the modern world had ever known. His personal fortune was equal to 2 percent of the total gross national product of the and this did not include the vast fortune passed on to the rest of his family which then controlled banks, railways and philanthropic foundations (which were themselves a newly- created device of Rockefeller). The Companies which he had created and in which he still held a major (25 per cent.) interest, then refined more than 90 percent of the oil sold in America and most of that of the rest of the world. Its political power was such that it was accused of doing everything with state legislatures except 'refining them'.

Yet despite such economic resources, Rockefeller had become an object of hatred and derision in America; he could not bury his wife of more than half a century for fear that the body might be desecrated or that he might be subpoenaed at the funeral by any of a dozen governmental bodies investigating his activities. Indeed, for more than a decade Rockefeller had been hounded by relentless , who portrayed him as a ruthless robber baron; investigated continually by state attorney generals and congressional committees who turned him into a fugitive from his own family; and denounced by political leaders of both parties as an 'arch-criminal'. Even charities hesitated to accept Rockefeller's 'tainted money' on the ground, as Senator Robert M. Lafollette argued, that "he gives with two hands but robs with many ... he is the greatest criminal of the age". In 1915 public passions were further aroused against Rockefeller by widely circulated reports of massacres of women and children at the company which his family controlled. In such an atmosphere wealth was of little use in quieting public opinion. Effective power, Rockefeller learned, depended on control of not merely pipelines, refineries, railways and banks, but also of the leaders and conduits of public opinion. And just as the old Rockefeller was able to organise industries systematically for great profit, his heirs learned to organise just as efficiently the perceptions and passions that constitute that vague realm known as 'public opinion'. John D. Rockefeller, born on a farm in State in 1839, was the son of an adventurer who had made a small fortune selling patent medicines and cancer cures which owed their success, if they were like other 'botanic medicines' of their day, to an opium base. When John D. reached the age of 20, his father advanced him sufficient funds to buy a half interest in a commodity commission business in . That same year, 1859, the first oil well in America was drilled at Titusville, Pennsylvania, and part of the oil was shipped down the Cuyohoga River to Cleveland for refining and then re-shipping to New York. In the next few years, the oil fields of Pennsylvania became the main source of kerosene for the entire world and young Rockefeller moved his commodity business from grain, hay and meat into oil. By the time he was 26 he had bought out his partners in what was then the largest refinery in Cleveland, and formed what was eventually known as the Standard Oil Company. Rockefeller immediately foresaw that transportation, not production of oil or retail sales, would be the key to controlling the burgeoning industry. Any refiner who could ship the oil for a few cents a barrel less than other refiners to the major market in New York would drive his competitors out of business. With this insight, Rockefeller proceeded to dominate the oil industry. By negotiating a 'rebate' with railroads on each barrel his refinery shipped, Rockefeller received a secret lower rate which allowed him to undersell all his compctitors in New York. Since greater profits for all could proceeed from the lower shipping rate, it was in the self-intcrest of competing refineries to join Standard. and most of them rushed to exchange their stock for either Standard stock or cash. By 1882 the Standard Company, reorganised by Rockefeller's lawyers as a 'trust' (which had previously had a benign meaning) controlled 95 per cent. of the refining capacity, United States. And Rockefeller, at the age of 43 controlled Standard Oil. With this power of refining, he expanded into all phases of the oil industry, including exploration, shipping and marketing. Before Americans were subject to income tax, the dividends from Standard Oil made Rockefcller the wealthiest man in the country. Eventually, the government, first the states and then the Federal, moved against Standard Oil and laws were passed against 'rebates' and 'trusts . Finally in 1911 under the crusading zeal of President , the Standard Oil trust was dissolved into 33 separate companies of which the Rockefellers remained large shareholders (receiving about 25 per cent of the shares of each new company). Rockefeller's organisational genius was not limited to oil. During the boom of the 1890s, he bought up a large share of the entire Pacific Northwest, including railways, steel mills, paper mills, factories, ore deposits, lumber, and vast tracts of real estate, including the entire city of Everett in the state of Washington. A dedicated Baptist, he founded the on the condition that it be "aggressively Christian" with no "infidel teachers". He also created tax- exempt foundations for the "well being of mankind" (just before income tax laws were passed in the United States) which changed the shape of 'philanthropy' in the United States, and insulated a large portion of his fortune from modern taxation. Rockefeller, who had wanted to live until 100, died in his sleep from sclerotic myocarditis at the age of 97 at The Casements, his Winter home, in Florida. None of his immediate family was with him at the end. A special car was sent to Florida to bring back his body for a funeral at Pocantico Hill and a burial in Lakeview Cemetery in Cleveland, where Rockefeller had began his empire as a $12-a-month clerk.

Since Rockefeller lived to the amazing age of 98, his only child John Jr did not inherit full control over the fortune - and foundations until he was 63 and nearly retired. When 'Junior', as he was called, attempted to take an active part in the family business in the first decade of the twentieth century, he found that he was being held personally responsible for the reign of terror and bloodshed in industrial America, which reached its height in 1915 after the Rockefeller controlled Colorado Fuel and Iron company was closed down by workers who demanded the right to collective bargaining and the enforcement of state labor laws which the company had been ignoring for years. The company, with the Rockefellers' active support, called in a private army of gunmen and the state militia to crush the strike and in the ensuing violence the tent camp of miners at Ludlow, Colorado, was ruthlessly sprayed with machine gun fire and burned to the ground. Along with several workers, 11 children and two women were killed in what became known nationally as the 'Ludlow Massacre'. With great gusto the national Press used the image of 'roasted children' to portray 'Junior' as a new national villain. Years later Junior told his official biographer Raymond B. Fosdick, that the Colorado strike was "one of the most important things that ever happened to the family" - if nothing else, it demonstrated to him that the future of the family depended on creating a new public image, one outside corporate business. An entire new public relations industry was created to focus public attention completely on the charitable work of the family. Junior turned the family business over to professional managers, and undertook such projects as saving the redwood trees in California and creating three new national parks. He financed crusades such as the Interchurch World Movement, an unsuccessful interdenominationalist effort "to Christianize the world". He also financed the effort to prohibit the consumption of alcohol in the United States.

He assiduously avoided , though he married Abby Aldrich, daughter of Senator Winthrop Aldrich, the most important Republican leader of his time. His only important business venture, according to his biographer, was the erection of , a colossal office building complex on Fifth Avenue in the heart of which he bravely built at the height of the depression in the 1930s. Rockefeller Center, which today provides some 10 million square feet of office space and brings 174 in rent in the order of a hundred million dollars a year for the , instantly became a major tourist attraction with its Art Deco murals workers in factories and Radio City from which NBC broadcasts its programs. The Center also provided 'Room 5600' which consists in fact of the entire 55th and 56th floors of the tallest building. From Room 5600, the family's far-flung finances and public were professionally managed. The public relations operation in Room became especially effective. All Information about the Rockefellers is stored in either "sensitive" or "public"' files. The former, which might conflict with the image being promoted, is embargoed or destroyed, The latter is disseminated to writers of authorized biographies and vetted journalists. Through the careful cultivation of the press, the public image of public enemy that Rockefeller Junior inherited was subtly transformed to one of a public benefactor. When died at the age of 86, his six children had already ascended to the highest strata of the social and political order. No longer outcasts, the Rockefeller heirs became the twentieth-century American aristocracy.

The Rockefeller heirs grew up in the family enclave at Pocantico Hills. a private fiefdom of some 3500 acres on the Hudson River 50 miles north of New York City. There were employed as many as 1500 servants, guards. secretaries and other retainers to care for the eleven baronial mansions on the estate. The playhouse where the heirs spent much of their childhood had an indoor swimming pool, indoor tennis and courts. billiard tables, two bowling alleys and closets full of toys. There were also such recreational facilities on the estate as a private golf course, stables, miles of private riding trails and six swimming pools.

The eldest heir and only daughter, Abby, was born in 1903. "Babs," as she called herself, attended finishing school, and, as their was no place for a woman in the family power machine, married three times. Taking on the surnames of her husbands, she became Abbey Milton Pardee Mauze. Like other women in the Rockefeller family, she was carefully shielded from any public role the Rockefeller managers who invested her funds, and arranged her political contributions. She was rarely during her lifetime mentioned in the press by the Rockefeller public relations machine in Room 5600. Even the authorized biographies of the family, while focusing on her 5 brothers, minimize her existence. For example, the lengthily official biography of her father mentions her only once in passing in a footnote referring to her as "Mrs. Jean Mauze." In almost all other family biographies, she was simply subsumed under the collective title "the Rockefeller messieurs." After she dies in 1976, a number of professorship were created at in her name, a memorial liaison with the Rockefeller .

The eldest son. John Davidson Rockefeller III, was born in 1906 at a time when his illustrious grandfather was still hiding out from government investigators. The public outcry over the Ludlow massacre was part of his childhood memories. 'Mr John', as he was called, chose like his father to establish himself in philanthropies rather than business.

After graduating from Princeton in 1929, He traveled by ship to Japan immediately the first of sixteen such trips and concentrated his energy on Asia. His mission became to provide the funds and support to assist Asian nations to control their populations. He served in the military government that occupied Japan after the Second World War and as a consultant to the U.S. Peace Settlement Mission in Japan, and helped create the . He won such honors in Asia as Grand Cordon Order of the Rising sun (in Japan), president of the Japan Society; chairman of the Asian Society; Most Noble Order of the Crown (in Thailand); Order of the Thousand Elephants and White Parasol (in Laos). The , which he sponsored, had a staff of some 250 doctors, demographers, and social scientists scattered among the less affluent nations of Asia (and later the world), with "showcases" of birth control in South Korea and Taiwan. Though he was awarded the Order of the Auspicious Star of China when he was director of United China Relief (for the Nationalists) , he subsequently counseled the State Department (in 1949) on another form of population control for Communist China, suggesting that "trade with China . . . should be limited. It seems to me that the fastest way to contain Communism is to discredit it in the eyes of the people of China. It seems to me if the [Chinese] economy worsens that this will arouse opposition to it." He thus helped make food a weapon in the Cold War.

He died in 1978, in a car crash, not far from Pocantico Hills.

Rockefeller Jr.'s second son, Nelson, born in 1908. With his elder brother superintending the family's cultural power, he turned his attention to the arena of political power.

His first major sphere of activity was political propaganda. Before he was 30, he became a director of the Creole Petroleum Company, the subsidiary of Standard Oil of which then provided it with most of its foreign oil from the enormous reserves it controlled in Venezuela. In examining the position of Creole Oil in Venezuela, Nelson became convinced that public relations in the host country was essential to retaining control over Latin American oil. In 1939 he and his associates from the Chase Bank and Rockefeller Center prepared a three-page memorandum for President Franklin D. Roosevelt that suggested the creation of a government agency to counter Nazi propaganda and covert infiltration in Latin America. FDR. on the recommendation of an adviser (who later received a loan from ), named Nelson in 1940 to head the new agency which became known as the Coordinator of Inter- American Affairs (CIAA) or simply as the Rockefeller Office. Before America even entered the second world war in 1941, Nelson was actively recruiting the elites of Latin America. According to a former staff member of the Rockefeller Office, "almost all our efforts were directed into organizing the pro-Western elites of Venezuela and Brazil into a private network of influence". Almost exclusively, Latin-American business executives and public opinion leaders were brought into this network. Then, after the United States entered the war, the Rockefeller Office directed its major efforts towards outright propaganda. To gain control over the media of Latin America during the War, Rockefeller obtained a ruling from the U.S. Treasury Department which exempted the cost of advertisements placed by American corporations that were cooperating with the Rockefeller Office from taxation. This tax- exempt advertising eventually constituted more than 40 per cent. of all radio and newspaper revenues in Latin America. By selectively directing this advertising towards newspapers and radio stations that accepted guidance from his office and simultaneously denying it to media which he deemed uncooperative or pro-Nazi he skillfully managed to gain economic leverage over the major sources of news throughout South America. Moreover, as the newsprint shortage became critical in South America, his office made sure that the indispensable newsprint licences were allocated only to friendly newspapers. With a staff of some 1,200 in the United States, including mobilized journalists, advertising experts and public opinion analysts, and some $140 million in government funds (expended over five years), the Rockefeller Office mounted a propaganda effort virtually unprecedented in the annals of American history. It was also a formative education for Nelson in the vulnerabilities of the Press. All the Rockefeller Office's programs were divided into two categories economic warfare" and "psychological warfare." Nelson explained to a Senate committee at the time: "We consider it an information program, the objectives to be to explain what is going on in a military way." A battle plan was thus drawn up for the press campaign. George Gallup, who later became famous as a political pollster, and a group of prominent social scientists quietly conducted systematic surveys of' public opinion in Brazil. In a clear adumbration of the postwar CIA, the Rockefeller Office arranged for a "research division" to employ clandestine "observers" from the Export Bureau of the American Association of Advertising Agencies in Latin America. The advertising men who served as "observers" supplied the Rockefeller Office with data concerning the editorial policy, personal opinions of the owners and editors of the newspapers. Dossiers could thus be systematically organized about the opinions and operations of the major organs of public opinion in Latin America. Under the brilliant tutelage of Francis A. Jamieson, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and public-relations expert (who stayed with Nelson for most of his public career); James W. Young, head of J. Walter Thompson advertising agency and Karl A. Bickel, former president of United Press and then chairman of Scripps-Howard Radio, Rockefeller learned the rudiments of managing news. From the beginning it became apparent that news was not the product of journalistic investigation, but of special interest groups. If economic pressure could be brought against the owners, and incentives given to editors, news in Latin America could be surreptitiously authored in Washington rather than Berlin or elsewhere. To this end, the Rockefeller Office provided not only 'canned' editorials, photographs, exclusives, feature stories and other such news material, but manufactured its own mass circulation magazines, supplements, pamphlets and newsreels. To ensure understanding of the 'issues' being advanced in Latin America, the Office sent 13,000 opinion leaders a weekly newsletter which was to help them 'clarify' the issues of the day. The CIAA also arranged trips to the United States for the most influential editors in Latin America (and later scholarships for their children). More than 1200 newspapers and 200 radio stations, which survived the economic warfare, were fed a daily diet of some 30,000 words of news in Spanish and Portuguese, which were disseminated by cooperating news agencies and radio networks in the United States to their clients in Latin America. By the end of the War, the CIAA estimated that more than 75 percent of the news that reached Latin America originated from Washington where it was tightly controlled and monitored by the Rockefeller Office and State Department. The operation, Nelson realized, required only sufficient money, talent and will. After the War Nelson divided his time between managing various Rockefeller interests and in service in various government administrations in Washington. He served President Harry Truman as chairman of the International Development Advisory Board. He served President Dwight D. Eisenhower as both under-secretary of the Department of Housing, Education and Welfare and as a special assistant for foreign affairs. Nelson believed in power. He explained "power per se is good or bad depending on how it is used [but] power is essential". To get it, he decided in 1955 to seek the Republican nomination for of New York State. Since no Rockefeller had sought elective office before, Room 5600 had to marshal special resources to ensure that Nelson received the nomination of the Republican party. At the time the Republican party in New York State was controlled by a few dozen county leaders in upstate cities, such as Elmira, Syracuse, Rochester and Albany. In New York City, the one place where the Rockefellers could most easily bring their financial and foundation power to bear on politicians, the Republican organization was moribund if not totally deceased. To this end, Nelson made arrangements with two professional politic operators in New York State, Malcolm Wilson, a legislator who could deal expediently with the Westchester County Republicans, and Lyman Judson Morhouse, the state Republican Chairman, who, according to his defense at a subsequent bribery. trial, was a professed 'influence' seller in New York State. Morhouse proceeded to select Nelson as the chairman of the Committee on the Preparation of a State Constitutional Convention, which provided convenient access to all grass-root Republican leaders in the state. But behind the scenes, Morhouse played an even more important role in helping Rockefeller make his separate peace with various county leaders, by collecting cash contributions of one sort or another from pro-Rockefeller sources and redistributing them where necessary to help towards securing the Republican nomination for Nelson. Nelson not only succeeded in easily winning the election, but provided more than half the campaign funds for the entire Republican party. As both chairman of the party and the director of the powerful State Thruway Commission (to which Nelson appointed him), Morhouse continued his service as a political bagman and all- purpose fixer during the first three years of the Rockefeller administration. During these years he collected hundreds of thousands of dollars from watch manufacturers, drug laboratories, lessees for space at the airport, highway contractors (through the Good Road Association), radio and television licensees in New York State, detective agencies seeking concessions at the 1960 World's Fair, and others seeking indulgences from the State of New York. Whether Morhouse was collecting this money for his own account, or simply laundering the money for undercover politics, Nelson was aware of the operation. For example, in June 1959, he personally witnessed Morhouse receive a hundred thousand dollars. in a 'shoe box' at a Republican Party dinner, and ordered the money returned because, he later testified, he "was fearful that this was race track money [from] people who wanted to get a licence for a racetrack". While such backstage redistributions of cash from those seeking and owed favors was hardly novel in New York State politics, Nelson was able to change the rules of the game by infusing vast amounts of money into the subterranean system through ingenious use of his own personal fortune and the institutions under his family's sway. Providing Morhouse with cash, untraceable in any way to the Rockefellers, required, however, the unique institutional resources of the Rockefeller Brothers and Associates in Room 5600 of Rockefeller Center. It sold Morhouse 2500 shares in a privately held corporation, the Marks Oxygen Company, for a nominal $25,000 (No money actually changed) and then proceed to buy the stock back from Morhouse for $79,375, leaving a profit of more than $50,000 in Morhouse's account. A similar arrangement was made on shares of Geophysics Corporation of America deposited in Morhouse's account, which rose almost tenfold, and left Morhouse with a paper profit of a quarter of a million dollars. When Morhouse, overheard on a wire tap arranging a hundred thousand dollar bribe for obtaining a liquor licence for the Playboy Club, was convicted of conspiracy and bribery, Nelson, as governor, pardoned him on medical grounds before he could spend any time in prison. As governor, Rockefeller demonstrated that he was a masterful orchestrator of both the levers and symbols of political power. He immediately found that the condition that satisfied most of the politically important interest groups in the state was the massive government construction program. Journalistic critics of Rockefeller in those years who attributed his monumental building projects to some sort of psychological 'erection complex' underestimated the political profit such vast expenditures on construction gained for him from key unions and business interests in the state. The political problem, which restrained Rockefeller's predecessors from constructing public works on a scale of the Egyptian pyramids, was that they could not be paid for out of taxes, since the wrath of the electorate over tax increases would far outweigh any advantages from special interest groups pleased with the expenditures. Nor was it easy to finance these projects through issuing long-term bonds, which had the obvious advantage of deferring tax burdens to future generations of taxpayers, because such bonds had to be approved by the electorate at a referendum. With characteristic ingenuity, Nelson over-rode this stumbling block to expansion by devising special authorities which could issue long-term debt without the approval of the voters. These bonds were not legally backed by the full faith of the state, since they by-passed constitutional requirement of a referendum, but Nelson pledged the full moral authority of the state the bonds, bond buyers assumed that this pledge was tantamount to a state obligation. Through these "Moral obligation" bonds, as they came to be called, New York State raised over $6 billion. Through these and other innovation, its debt during the Rockefeller administrations rose from $1 billion to $13 billion, allowing Nelson to engage in a massive building and spending. Under anyone but Nelson, there might have been great resistance among state officials to such unorthodox bonds. Nelson, however, succeeded in engendering loyalty among his key officials by quietly distributing to them over one million dollars in cash from his private funds. Typically, Rockefeller's secret loans that became gifts went to such instrumental state officials as the Superintendent of Banks, members of the State Housing Financing agency, the Commissioner of the Department of Environmental Conservation and the Commissioner of Housing and Community Renewal. While some officials receive hundreds of thousands of dollars from Rockefeller, others received the promise of future employment in his family's empire. While Rockefeller's ability to dispense largesse conflicted with the New York State Penal Code which explicitly prohibited conferring "any benefit upon a public official for having engaged in official conduct . Rockefeller asserted, when the gifts were finally made public by an FBI investigation in 1974, that he gave the cash to the public servants. out of his esteem for them, not out of any motive related to the work they were performing for him as governor. Because of his carefully managed reputation as a philanthropist the matter was never referred to a court for adjudication. Nelson next set his sights on the Presidency. In his first effort to secure the Republican nomination for the presidency, in 1964, he used $12 million of the family's money. He failed, however. To win enough delegates to stop Barry Goldwater, a senator who strongly identified himself as an ideological conservative (and who went on to lose the general election). Nelson's advisors told him he needed a more conservative image to win the Republican nomination in 1968. The solution he found was an issue that conveyed a tough conservative image to the law and order elements in the Republican Party, but which would not at the same time offend the more moderate elements in the party; it was the suppression of drug addicts. He cited polls that "document that the number one, and growing concern of the American people is crime and drugs, coupled with an all-pervasive fear for the safety of their person and property" It was this well researched "all-pervasive Rockefeller set out to exploit brilliantly. The crusade against addicts reached its zenith in 1973 Rockefeller declared that a "reign of terror" existed with "whole neighborhoods . . . as effectively destroyed by addicts as by an invading army. He pressed through the legislature laws which by-passed both the discretion of the court and the prosecutor by making it mandatory that anyone convicted of selling (or possessing more than one-eighth ounce of) heroin, amphetamines, LSD, or other specified drugs would be imprisoned for life without the possibility of parole. Even 16-year-old offenders hitherto protected by the youthful offenders law would receive automatic life sentences. Thousand-dollar bounties would be paid for information about these drugs. In another legal innovation the new law laid down life imprisonment (without parole) for the novel crime of ingesting a hard drug (including amphetamines or LSD) 48 hour's or less before committing a proscribed crime, including criminal mischief, sodomy, burglary, assault and arson. This draconian law made it possible to imprison undesirable users for the balance of their lite since they had only to be convicted of a minor crimes after ingesting drugs to which they were addicted. The Rockefeller laws succeeded in enhancing Rockefeller's reputation among the hardline element of the Republican party without losing very much support anywhere else, as few people in America were concerned with the fate of drug addicts. To his more moderate supporters, Rockefeller justified the law by explaining, as he did in his senate testimony, "about 135,000 [addicts] were robbing, mugging, murdering day in and day out for their money to fix their habit, and it was costing the people of New York up to $5 billion". Rockefeller had obviously learned in his long experience in psychological warfare that numbers could be effectively employed in political rhetoric, even if they had no basis in fact, if they only sounded enormous and authoritative enough. In this case, if Rockefeller's alleged army of addicts maintained the "day in, day out" schedule they would have to commit something in the order of 49,275,000 robberies, muggings and murders a year, which would mean that the average resident of New York would be robbed, mugged and murdered approximately seven times a year. The hyperbole not withstanding, Nelson had his issue. In speech after speech, with masterful vampire imagery, he agitated the popular fear that the population of New York would be decimated by a horde of addicts, infecting the innocent children. Through the agency of the generalized fear of drugs, Rockefeller was able not only to win elections but to project in the popular imagination a new nationwide crisis which he alone, among the nation's politicians, had the experience to solve. A newly created commission which supposedly supervised the involuntary rehabilitation of addicts, but which had on its staff many more public relations specialists than medical doctors and psychiatrists, systematically developed through its own nationally circulated newspapers (Attack), newsletters and contacts with the media, the highly dramatized image of heroin addicts as drug slaves, who were ineluctably compelled to steal and ravage by their incurable habit. The size of the addict population in New York proved infinitely flexible. When it was necessary to demonstrate the need for more police measures or judges, Rockefeller expanded the number of putative addicts from 25,000 (1966) to 150,000 (1972) to 200,000 (1973). For other audiences, especially when Rockefeller wanted to show the efficacy of his program, the army of addicts was conveniently contracted to under 100,000. Nelson asked rhetorically in the New York Law Journal, "How can we defeat drug abuse before it destroys America? I believe the answer lies in summoning the total commitment America has always demonstrated in times of national crisis . . . Drug addiction represents a threat akin to war in its capacity to kill, enslave, and imperil the nation's future; akin to cancer in spreading of deadly disease among us and equal to any other challenge we face in deserving all the brainpower, manpower and resources necessary to overcome it." He then asked rhetorically, "Are the sons and daughters of a generation that survived the great depression and rebuilt a prosperous nation, that defeated Nazism and Fascism and preserved the free world, to be vanquished by a powder, needles and pills?" Indeed, he played the politics of fear so adroitly that President Nixon borrowed much of his rhetoric, images and statistical hyperbole on drugs and crime, when launching his own national heroin crusade. Although Rockefeller's draconian drug laws had little effect on either drug addiction or crime rate in New York, they helped him to achieve the national prominence and acceptance by the hardline elements of the Republican party that he needed if he was to stand for the presidency when Nixon's final term of office was due to expire in 1976. In December 1973, in what members of his staff foresaw as the beginning of the presidential campaign, Rockefeller resigned as governor and announced that he was going to spend his full time directing the Commission on Critical Choices, which he had set up with family and foundation money several months earlier. Ostensibly, this Commission was designed to "seek a clearer sense of national purpose" but, as did the earlier Rockefeller panels, the well financed organization also served as a vehicle for gathering together the most important molders of public opinion in America and, with their assistance, determining issues of public policy they should support. To articulate possible positions the Commission also paid various academics fees ranging from five to thirty thousand dollars. Every word they wrote was scrutinized by the former governor's Press secretary, Hugh Morrow, to gauge the political impact it might, if published, have on Rockefeller's political ambitions. The political plan for 1976, however, had to be radically altered after the collapse of the Watergate coverup made it apparent that President Nixon would not finish his term of office. Nixon's vice president Spiro Agnew, had been forced to resign because of his own criminal culpability, and replaced by Gerald Ford, the leader of the Republicans in the House. When Nixon resigned in August 1974, Ford became president. With another term available to him in 1976, Rockefeller's chances for the presidential nominations were effectively ended. He therefore accepted Ford's offer to appoint him his vice president. After extended Congressional inquiries into his financial resources he was confirmed by a vote of 287 to 128 in the House and 90 to 7 in the Senate. He was sworn in as the 41st vice president on Dec. 19, 1974.

He retired from politics in 1977, and died in 1979 in New York City, during a tryst with a 25 year old lover.

The middle heir, Laurance Spelman Rockefeller. was born in New York City in 1910. Like his brothers, he attended an college, Princeton. When the war broke out in 1941, he joined the Navy. As a lieutenant-commander in the production division, he superintended relations between the Navy and aviation contractors. As such, he developed a keen interest in military technology.

After the war, while his two elder brothers pursued careers in philanthropy and politics, Laurance became a high-technology entrepreneur. He provided the financing for Captain Eddie Rickenbacker, the First World War aviation ace, to buy the aviation division from General Motors and turn it into Eastern Airlines, which subsequently became profitable (after it was awarded the highly lucrative route to by the government). On the basis of his war-time experience, he assumed that it would only be a matter of time before the government began replacing bombers with missiles, and he bought a New Jersey company, Reaction Motors, Inc., which had developed an early rocket engine along the lines of the captured German V-2 rocket. When the United States government chose Reaction Motors to make the engine for its newly-developed Viking missile, he made a small fortune. As missiles became more sophisticated, he invested heavily in Marquadt Aviation whose stock value increased 1000 per cent after it became publicly known that the government was buying its ram jet rocket engine for its next generation of missiles. Laurance was also instrumental in financing the McDonnell Aircraft Corporation, which became a prime supplier of aircraft for the Navy. During the 1950s, Laurance continued to invest heavily in newly-formed companies specializing in military technology. The profits generated by the fluctuation of the stock prices of these companies proved a useful source of funds for the Rockefeller family, including his more politically ambitious elder brother, Nelson. Laurance used his wealth to establish himself as a leading protector of the environment. He provided immense subsidies for America's national parks, including Yellowstone National Park, Marsh- Billings National Historical Park and the Grand Tetons, which helped cordon them off from commercial development. He funded the Conservation foundations, developed resort hotels in natural surrounding to build public support for conservation and served as an environmental advisor under presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and Ford.

Rockefeller's fourth son, Winthrop, was born in 1912. He attended Yale but, unlike his elder brothers, who earned honors degrees at college, Winthrop dropped out before graduating and went to work as a roustabout in the Texas oil fields. Although the Rockefeller family was desperately attempting to dissociate its public image from that of the oil companies, ne became a junior executive at Socony-Vacuum Oil (of which the Rockefeller family owned the largest single share). In World War II, he sought out a combat assignment in the Pacific and after being wounded, emerged as a decorated war hero.

Winthrop also proved a maverick in his marital arrangements. Rather than marrying upward into society, like the rest of the family, he married Barbara "Bo Bo" Sears the beautiful daughter of an impovished farmer who the press had a field day describing as a "Cinderella." After sufficiently embarrassing the family, he divorced her. At the age of 41, he left the eastern base of the family and moved to , buying a sizeable portion of the state. His 50,000-acre cattle ranch, Winrock Farms, was not only used by him to produce beef but as a venue for holding seminars on the future of Arkansas and modernizing the South. He also served as chairman of the Arkansas Industrial Development Commission. Gradually, he established a base for himself and the Rockefeller family in politics in Arkansas, and the southern wing of the Republican party. In 1966, he was elected governor of Arkansas, and he was reelected to another two-year term in 1968. Win, as he called himself in Arkansas, died of cancer on February 22, 1973, and was buried in Morrilton, Arkansas.

Rockefeller Junior's youngest child, David. was the only heir born after the 1915 Ludlow Massacre. After graduating from Harvard and attending the London School of Economics he received his Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1940 from the University of Chicago and then became a trustee of the institution his grandfather founded. He served for eighteen months as an unpaid secretary to the mayor of New York City, and then as a Housing Administrator for the Office of Defense. In 1942, he joined the Army where he rapidly rose as an intelligence officer to the rank of Assistant Military Attache in the American Embassy in Paris. He was duly admitted to the French Legion of Honor in 1945.

His real ambition in life was international banking. Immediately after the War, David went to work for the Chase National Bank, of which his uncle. Winthrop W. Aldrich, was then Chairman of the Board. As an assistant manager of the foreign department, David specialized in opening branches and expanding the bank's influence in the areas of Latin America in which his elder brother had established interests. The former co-ordinator, Nelson, had quietly transferred the operation of the wartime Rockefeller Office to two Rockefeller-owned entities IBEC (International Basic Economics Corporation). a profit-making corporation which was investing in agriculture and marketing companies in South America, and taking full advantage of the network of businessmen which Rockefeller had assembled during the War, and AIA, the American International Association for Economic and Social Development which encompassed non-profit activities such as grants and scholarships, thus maintaining liaisons between local government officials and leading members of the Latin American Press. David was also successful in establishing a close working relation in Panama with the closely-knit financial and political families that more or less ran the government of that country. With Rockefeller interests owning the largest block of stock in Chase, and two seats on its Board of Directors, David rapidly ascended to the presidency of the bank in 1961, when he was only 44. The Chase Manhattan Bank, as it was called after it absorbed the Manhattan Bank in 1955, was even then one of the three most powerful banks in the United States with assets over $10 billion. As head of this international financial institution, David criss-crossed the world numerous times during the Sixties, dining with kings and heads of states, and compiling index cards of some 20,000 acquaintances on whom he could possibly call for assistance. A member of the elite Council on Foreign Relations since 1942 and an active participant in the public and private gatherings of the so-called Eastern Establishment, David became the single most effective spokesman for the entire American business community.

The brothers Rockefeller had firmly laid the foundation for cultural as well as political power in America. They possessed not only an immense fortune, which was still controlled as a unit from Room 5600 in Rockefeller Center, but also impressive individual qualities and talent. John Rockefeller III had established a sphere of influence in the cultural and scientific universes through his generous disbursement of grants and contributions from the foundations under his aegis. Nelson proved himself a brilliant manager of public opinion and an able politician. Lawrence, an intelligent entrepreneur worthy of his grandfather, demonstrated that he was able to take full advantage of the developments in military technology that came to his attention and play a dominant role in the emerging environmental establishment. Winthrop, though a maverick, managed to establish a political base for himself in the South. And David, through his ability and connections, had assumed full control over a financial institution that touched almost all major forms of business in the world.

Their public image had been elevated from that of outcasts at the time of their grandfather's trust- building to that of dedicated public servants. This feat had been accomplished through a 40-year- long refinement of public data about the family by such masters of public relations as , Francis Jamieson, and William Ruder, and the organizations these men built for the family account. Through their tax-exempt foundations and "philanthropies," and the dispensation of over $1 billion to intellectual and scientific enterprises, the brothers had also woven a strong, if sometimes invisible, web of influence that touched in one way or another virtually all the activities of those who articulate issues in the mainstream of public life. In 1956, for example, the brothers involved more than a hundred of the most influential men in America in a four-year long dialogue on various issues of concern to the family. The agenda for these panels was planned by Henry A. Kissinger who would late become President Nixon and Ford's national security adviser and Secretary of State, and who had been an advisor to Nelson Rockefeller for a dozen years. These Rockefeller panels, as they were called, were aimed at forming a consensus among the decision-making elite on such issues"'foreign policy," the nature of the "communist threat," responses to "concealed aggression," "nuclear strategy," "economic policies", and the "reconstruction of the democratic consensus". Through such meetings, they effectively defined what became the establishment position on these issues for the balance of the millennium. While many families in America aggregated great fortunes, as can be judged by the annual Forbes 500 list, the Rockefellers managed to transmute their accumulated wealth into a much rarer commodity: the power over the political- intellectual cultural complex.

The Rockefeller Bloodline http://bouwdorp.dse.nl/oranje/satan/rockefellerbloodline.htm http://bouwdorp.dse.nl/oranje/satan/

One of the 13 Satanic bloodlines that rule the world is the Rockefeller bloodline. Today, there are around 190 members of this family with the Rockefeller name and of course some others by other last names. This article is to explore further for those who investigate the Illuminati, how the Rockefeller bloodline is involved in the promotion of the occult and Satanism, and how they are involved in the control of the Christian denominations. This article keys in on just one family, the Rockefellers. To understand the full extent of the Illuminati’s control of religion, including Christendom, would require perhaps several books. The Illuminati itself draws its lifeblood from around 500 very powerful families worldwide. This article will not attempt to explain their networks and the many organizations of the Illuminati. It will not even try to do this for the Rockefellers. In fact, no one knows how many trusts and foundations the Rockefellers have. They have hidden trusts within secret trusts within secret trusts. It is estimated that they have between 200 and several thousand trusts and foundations. The finances of the Rockefellers are so well covered that Nelson Rockefeller did not pay one cent in income taxes in 1970, yet he was perhaps the richest man in the U.S. The Rockefellers exert enormous influence over religion in this nation in the following ways:

1. They provide a large share of the money that Seminaries in the United States need to operate. 2. They provide a large share of the money that universities need to operate. Education influences the religious values of our people. 3. They provide large grants to various religious organizations. 4. Their influence and control helps determine who will get publicity in the major news magazines, and on television. 5. Their influence has contributed to various anti-Christian organizations being set up. 6. They directly help control certain religious groups such as Lucis Trust.

The Rockefeller’s influence is both subtle and not so subtle.

In the book The Unholy Alliance details are given on how the seminaries, church boards and Christian colleges have been captured. Much of the money for this came from the Rockefellers. One of the principle large Foundations that was instrumental in controlling religious institutions of various kinds was the Sealantic Fund. (They have now shifted to other channels.) This Foundation which was incorporated in 1938 and was headquartered in New York City (50 West 50th St.) gave enormous sums of money to manipulate Protestant concerns. In 1964, according to the Russell Sage Foundation’s book The Foundation Directoy the Sealantic Fund gave away $681, 886 in grants.* In 1969, the Fund gave $1,889,550 in grants.** By 1984, the Sealantic Fund was not being used. But a look at another Rockefeller non-profit untaxed Foundation the Rockefeller Brother’s Fund shows a revealing grant pattern. Many people would not be able make any sense out of what seems a random pattern of grants without the broad picture of what the Illuminati is doing today. My book Be Wise As Serpents should have clarified how those various groups who receive grants are related and helpful to the Rockefeller agenda. Although these other Rockefeller Foundations are not specifically geared toward religion such as the Sealantic Fund was, it is clear these other Foundations still impact religion.

Catholic institutions have been large recipients of grants from foundations connected to the World Order. The Catholic Church, the Episcopalian Church, and the Unitarian- Universalist Church are all playing big roles in the New World Order for the Satanists. One ex-Satanist has talked about visits that were made with the Pope and Vatican leaders, where the Pope dealt with this person as a member of the Illuminati. In other words the Pope was not in the Illuminati hierarchy, but he carries out transactions with them, and coordinates his actions according to their instructions.

We will now go into some depth on the six items above.

1. They provide a large share of the money that Seminaries in the United States need to operate.

The Union Theological Seminary has operated from Rockefeller funds.***** UTS hasn’t been the only Protestant Seminary receiving Rockefeller funds, but it may be the best example of a seminary controlled by the Rockefellers. The Sealantic Fund stated under its purpose and activities, “Current interests are primarily Protestant theological education...... ****** The President of the Sealantic Fund when it operated was , and Laurance (not Lawrence) S. Rockefeller was Vice-President. Steven C. Rockefeller was one of the trustees.

2. They provide a large share of the money that universities need to operate. Education influences the religious values of our people.

In 1952, Congressman Eugene E. Cox headed up a committee that for the first time tried to uncover the Rockefeller’s (and other’s) foundations’ activities. For some reason, Cox encountered stiff opposition everywhere against his committee’s investigation, and the Congressman for some reason got sick and died. One member of the committee, Congressman Carroll Reese, and his Counsel Rene Wormser attempted to continue the investigation. Rockefeller’s henchmen and newspapers did their best to destroy Congressman Reese. The Reese investigation was given only the barest minimum of time and little resources for their investigation. However, they were still able to uncover that beginning in the 1930s vast sums of money were spent in Education by the Rockefeller and Carnegie foundations. This money went to promote John Dewey, Marxism, a One-World-Government agenda, and Socialism. The foundations (principally the Rockefeller and Carnegie) stimulated two-thirds of the total endowment funding of all institutions of higher learning in America during the first third of this 20th century.******* The NEA (National Education Association was largely financed by the Rockefeller/Carnegie foundations. A 1934 NEA report advised, “A dying laissez-faire must be completely destroyed and all of us, including the ‘owners’, must be subjected to a large degree of social control.” Reece Committee Counsel Rene Wormser wrote of the investigation, “...leads one to the conclusion that there was, indeed, something in the nature of an actual conspiracy among certain leading educators in the United States to bring about socialism through the use of our school systems...” They discovered that the Rockefeller foundation was the primary culprit behind the teaching of socialism in America’s schools and universities and also behind the NEA’s policies. Rene Wormser, Counsel for the Reece Committee reported, “A very powerful complex of foundations and allied organizations has developed over the years to exercise a high degree of control over education. Part of this complex, and ultimately responsible for it, are the Rockefeller and Carnegie groups of foundations.” This was the situation in the 1950s when the Reece Committee briefly investigated. The Rockefeller-Carnegie groups have continued basically unopposed for the next 40 years in controlling education. One of the educational book producers is Grolier, Inc. , Jr. sits on Grolier, Inc. board meetings. Another interesting board member is Theodore Wailer who is the director of Grolier, Inc. He was a member of the International Book Committee of UNESCO. The Rockefellers maintain great influence in the United Nations.

3. They provide large grants to various religious organizations.

On Jan. 31, 1945, John D. Rockefeller addressed the Protestant Council of the City of N.Y. and told them that the answer to the problems Christianity was that Christianity needed to become “the Church of the Living God.” Many listening that day, may not have realized that he and other top Illuminati consider themselves gods, and that the solution John D. was cryptically giving was for Christianity to serve him a living god. (Rockefeller, John D. The Christian Church- What of its Future? NY: Protestant Council, 1945, & 1917.)

4. Their influence and control helps determine who will get publicity in the major news magazines.

The Rockefeller family has enormous controls over various magazines and newspapers. Let us examine how the power of the press can be used in religion. One of the magazines that the Rockefellers have some control over is Time magazine. Time’s board chairman, Andrew Heiskell was associated with David Rockefeller. Another Illuminatus of the 6th level1 Henry J. Fisher, ran McCall’s Magazine from 1917 to 1956. The establishment’s media boosted Anton LaVey’s Church of Satan into prominence. The Jan. 31, 1967 New York Daily News ran a story about Anton LaVey performing the first Satanic wedding ceremony in America. The March 1970 issue of McCall’s ran a nice story about the Church of Satan. Not only is LaVey’s Church of Satan a publicity stunt to make Satanism more popular and to deflect criticism of real covert Satanism, the McCall issue makes Anton LaVey’s church sound even better in the article than it is. (For those brainwashed folks who think that this free advertising for Anton LaVey was just for the sake of finding a good story for the Daily News and McCall, I can show you dozens of better juicier stories that never have seen the light of day--because they are contrary to what the Illuminati want people to hear. I won’t argue that a story on Satanism may be interesting, I am pointing out that many other interesting stories don’t get printed. Stories are selected by an editor, they don’t just happen.) Finally on June 19, 1972 Time Magazine provided more coverage for LaVey with an article “The Occult: A Substitute Faith.” Believe me, the sincere devout Christian groups haven’t ever received such nice free publicity. I’m not referring to men like 33° Mason Billy Graham, who works for the New World Order and Knights Templar Mason Charles T. Russell, founder of the Watchtower Society who both received great press coverage. Another minor example, and I am pointing out minor examples because they occur many times during the course of year, is Van Daniken’s UFO books. Lew Wasserman, head of MCA, which owns G.P. Putnam’s Sons, is a member of the Rockefeller University Council. G.P. Putnam’s Sons published Van Daniken’s anti-Christian UFO religious theories. Cadence Industries own Marvel Comics. The men on the board of Cadence sit under David Rockefeller in places like the CFR. Is it any wonder Marvel Comics promotes the occult and heros like ‘The Son of Satan”? Where does the buck stop? You say that the Rockefellers don’t control subordinates. Bear in mind, that many of the Rockefellers call themselves Baptists. If they are really Christians don’t you think they could use their influence to stop such terrible things? The point is that the rottenness starts at the top. The rest of the pyramid has a hard time turning out O.K. when the top of the pyramid is dedicated to Satan. Rockefeller and Hearst worked together in their news monopolies. It was Hearst who promoted both books on Satanism and Billy Graham. (If you learn what I know--the two are not contradictory.) Hearst made Billy Graham who he is today by financially backing him and publicizing him. Rockefeller was supportive of Billy Graham’s New York Crusade, and the Manhattan- helped Billy Graham out.

5. Their influence has contributed to various anti-Christian organizations being set up.

Maurice Strong is a good friend of the Rockefellers. He has been promoting Mother Gaia worship. David Rockefeller works with Maurice Strong and his New Age ideas. Reverend Moon from Korea has been very much loved by the Rockefellers. Moon calls himself Christ and is setting up a religion promoting internationalism. His religion is also a good testing ground for brainwashing/recruiting techniques that are being perfected by the NWO. The Rockefellers have been helping Moon, who also has his primary mansion in NY. Also of interest is that the prominent political figures that have endorsed Moon are those with ties to the NWO, and include Ted Kennedy, Mason Mark C. Hatfield, Mason Jesse Helms, & Illuminatus William F. Buckley, Jr. (See pg. 32-33 of The Puppet Master by J. Isamu Yamamoto.) A lesser known group is the Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship (SFF) in Independence, MO. Their address was Exec. Plaza, 10715 Winner Rd, 64052. They were founded in 1956. Just like Reverend Moon they claim to be Christians, but teach and practice other things. They teach and practice the occult. Two prominent men in SFF are Marcus Bach and Gardner Murphy. They both have interesting backgrounds. Marcus Bach shows the touch of the Rockefellers. Marcus Bach, born in 1906, is director of special projects for SFF. The Rockefeller Foundation granted him a fellowship in “research and creative writing” from 1934-36. Gardner Murphy was the consultant in 1950 for UNESCO in New Delhi to the Hindus of the Indian Ministry of Education. From ‘52-’68 he was director of research at the Menninger Foundation, Topeka, KS. (Yes, psychology is led mainly by occultists!) Menninger himself is a member of several environmental groups for the elite, an Honorary trustee of the Aspen Institute, a Freemason, member of ACLU, and a close associate of W. Clement Stone. W. Clement Stone in turn is also a Mason, a member of the occult American Society for Psychical Research, and the financial backer of the Menninger Foundation. The Federal Council of Churches was financed to a large extent by Rockefeller money. In my Be Wise As Serpents book I detail how the FCC was designed to destroy Christianity, how they carefully plotted to make the creation of the FCC look like a grass roots movement, when it was actually the creation of the elite (Illuminati). I further detail how the men who ran it were high ranking Masons, Socialists, and One- Worlders. Also shown is how they carefully manipulated the real gospel for their own devious ends.

6. They directly help control certain religious groups such as Lucis Trust.

David Rockefeller is part of Lucis Trust’s management. Lucis Trust puts out the book Externalization of the Hierarchy by Alice Bailey which spells out The Plan for the Satanists and New Agers on how the spiritual Hierarchy (actually the demonic hierarchy) is to externalize their rule of the planet. The book gives quite a few of the details of the plan, and is used as a textbook for New Agers at the Arcane Schools in NY, London, and Europe on how the New Age/One World Religion/One-World- Government will be brought in. If anyone doubts the Rockefeller’s commitment to Satan, read page 107 of Externalization of the Hierarchy. On page 107 Alice Bailey, President of the Theosophical Society and part of Lucis (formerly Lucifer) Trust, tells us who will rule when the New Age (New World Order) takes over. On the Earthly level--Humanity so to speak, the Ruler is given on page 107 as Lucifer. On the Spiritual level--called “Shamballa - the Holy City” the coming ruler is given as “the Lord of the World” which we Christians know as Satan. Lucis Trust knows it is Satan too, but for public consumption they say that the “ruler of the world” is Sanat (a scrambling of Satan) Kumara. They also predict there will be a Christ Consciousness and the Christ (actually the Anti-Christ) The book Externalization of the Hierarchy teaches repeatedly (see pages 511-512, 514) that the 3 vehicles to bring in the New Age will be the Masonic Lodges, (obviously not everyone attends Lodges), next the Churches (this is clearly revealing to us that men like the Rockefellers are using the churches for the Luciferian plan of Lucis Trust), and finally Education (Well, of course education. Not everyone attends churches. They need a safety net to catch everyone in their brainwashing to make us all want to be happy slaves under the Light-bearer.) The home life of the Rockefellers is decidedly different than for most people. They have over 100 homes to stay at. The Rockefellers own vast tracts of good land in various countries in South America, and have nice homes in Brazil, Ecuador, and their Monte Sacro Ranch, Venezuela. They have two mansions in Washington, D.C. (at least), numerous ranches around the United States, resorts in Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the Caribbean, a 32- room 5th Ave duplex in N.Y., not to mention their place at Seal Harbor, Maine, and the large estate at Pocantico Hills, NY. It is estimated that they have 2,500 house servants. Over the years, they have built up the reputation of being miserly with their help, and to each other. (I couldn’t begin to know all about the Rockefellers, but I can give a sampling of some of the many items that surround the real lives of America’s top Illuminati family.) Winthrop, who is homosexual,, enjoyed living in Arkansas with his black male friend. He reportedly had the world’s largest porn collection. Winifred Rockefeller Emeny, Nelson’s cousin, murdered her two children and committed suicide. died when he tried to bribe New Guinea tribesmen with large sums of money to go head hunt and make shrunken heads for him. The natives had given up head hunting and Michael couldn’t successfully bribe them. Finally getting tired of Michael, the natives decided to head hunt Michael himself! Many of the Rockefeller family have had troubled lives, filled with all kinds of fears and occult activities. It is known that the Rockefellers have frequently built many hidden tunnels and hidden rooms onto their buildings. They have developed their occult and worldly powers to the point they consider themselves gods. Their powerful often suffer violent ritual death as most high level Satanists traditionally go through. One who died in Arizona is known to have been cremated.

WHY AM I COVERING THE TOP 13 ILLUMINATI BLOODLINES? I have often been asked who are the illuminati? Who are the people at the top of the conspiracy? Who are the generational satanic families? The illuminati consists of 13 magical and powerful bloodlines. There are also some other powerful bloodlines that are worth naming but if they are in the Illuminati they have blood ties to one of the 13 powerful lineages. About half of the Illuminati people I know have had their parentage hidden from them. Many of the those who still know who their real parents are, still do not know what bloodline they belong to until the illuminati chooses to reveal it to them. Most of the Illuminati have MPD. When high level Satanists do not have MPD they very often emotionally break under the stress of the horrible blood rituals that are required. Recently, a non-MPD Satanist in Chicago emotionally broke and gave his life to Christ. (I have videos available of an interview of this man exposing Satanism.) One of the important lineages has remained secret until 3 investigators named Lincoln, Leigh, and Bageant were spoon-fed leads and secrets. They put this into a book called "Holy Blood, Holy Grail." I recommend the book and the two books which are its sequels, because they show how just one part of the 13 lineages has kept itself secret and has taken immense power of all forms to themselves. In Southern Belgium there is a castle. (If any one is traveling there and wants to find the castle, I will show them on the map, and describe it.) This is the Mothers of Darkness castle. In that castle, is a cathedral and in that cathedral’s basement a little baby Is sacrificed daily and Is coming to power. The pages are written almost round the clock. (This castle is also described in my Be Wise as Serpents book.) The history in that handwritten book would reveal the real facts behind the propaganda that the world’s major news medias give the gullible public. The history as that book reveals it would tell people about how Abraham Lincoln was a descendent of the Rothschild's. Abraham Uncoin was the secret head of the Rosicrucian's, a member of their 3 headed top council. (I have seen the paper trail proof to these things about Lincoln to my satisfaction that these things about Uncoin are true.) Adolph Hitler was also a secret member of the Rothschild lineage. Hitler carried out blood sacrifices to open his mind up to high level demonic spiritual control. Rockefeller sold Hitler oil during W.W. II via Spain to keep W.W. II going longer. The history in that book mentions people that the “history books” given the public don’t-- like Michael Augustus Martinelli Von Braun Rheinhold, the most powerful Satanist in the world a few years ago. Michael Augustus Martinelli Von Braun Rheinhold had 66 Satanic Brides. And that Satanic book in the Mothers of Darkness castle also mentions the Rockefeller bloodline. Only insiders are supposed to know the real history of what has taken place in human history. The real decisions and the real movers and shakers have been hidden from the public’s eyes. What the public is given is a stage show where illuminati puppets parade around and make big speeches according to their script. Each of the 13 families has their own set of Mothers of Darkness. Each of the 13 families has their own secret Satanic leadership Kings, Queens, Princesses and Princes of Darkness. For instance, the Rockefeller family has people who are selected as Kings and Princes within their own bloodline in secret rituals. The Kings and Princes, Queens and Princesses are strictly bloodline. They secretly rule over an area of the world for their own bloodline. This is independent of the illuminati's hierarchy which was diagrammed in the Jan 1993 newsletter. (my Newsletter from a Christian Ministry.) In the January, 1993 issue the Covens, Sisters of Light, Mothers of Darkness, and the Grande Mothers were diagrammed. The illuminati pulls its various bloodlines together under several councils. The Grande Druid Council or your Council of 13 is your principle council for the Brotherhood of Death. Above the Council of 13 is a higher Council of 9, and an inner group of 3 is believed to head that Council of Nine. How do we know about these things? The power of God has reached into the very heart of Satan’s empire and pulled out some of the most powerful Satanists and drawn them to Christ. There are several Satanists that were at the top which have managed to find Christ. in addition, some of the next echelon of the hierarchy, such as some of the Mothers of Darkness are also finding Christ. if someone wants to understand how and why decisions are made in world affairs and by who-- then you need to study the illuminati. The real answers do not rest with the proceedings of the Congress of the United States or with the publicly known leaders of the Communist countries. An example of what I am talking, there is a book entitled "Who Financed Hitler" by James Pool and Suzanne Pool. I am always glad to see that some people are wiling to look behind the scenes. Believe me, there were people that Hitler listened to. They were the people he went to ritual with, and who put him into power. A CONTINUATION OF THE SERIES OF ARTICLES ON The TOP 13 ILLUMINATI BLOODLINES. The ROCKEFELLER FAMILY

PREFACE. The first article about the House of Rockefeller in this newsletter occurred in the Mid- Dec 1992 Vol. No. 13 Issue pp. 3-8. The primary focus of that article was to show how the family controlled large segments of the Protestant groups in the United States. A secondary focus of that article was to show the Satanic occult side of the family. An attempt will be made in this article not to rehash information given out in that earlier article. The Rockefeller family has been so busy and there Is a large amount of information that can be provided about them. Therefore my goal with this article Li to provide introductory information to the readership, and to qualify that what is written In this article Is but the basics of what should be written about the illuminati activities of this family. Much of my own material on the Rockefeller family was lost this year and I don’t have the time to go back and research it again. Much of it involved the secret wheeling and dealing that went on behind the scenes to bring the Rockefellers into wealth and power. Some of the details also involved their manipulations to control about everything that the Rockefellers can find to control. Some of the research was on the occult activities of the House of Rockefeller.

THE FIRST NOTORIOUS ROCKEFELLER. The first notorious Rockefeller that researchers who are not working for the Rockefellers refer to is William Avery Rockefeller (1810 -1906?). William Avery Rockefeller was totally corrupt and lacked any type of morals. He was involved in the occult and practiced magic. He married a number of women around the country in bigamous relationships. He also had a number of mistresses, and a large number of sexual partners. He was charged with raping a women and escaped the state of New York to prevent being sent to Jail for it. He stole, lied, and abused his way through life. He wore the best of clothes, and he never lacked for money, including gold coins. Besides loving women, he loved gambling. And where did his money to gamble with come from? He made much of his money dishonestly. His life Is a carbon copy of other men who are known by this author to have been in the Illuminati. (The reader also needs to bear in mind that the Illuminati carries out a large number of secret occult marriages, which only insiders learn about.) One of his wives was Eliza Davidson (181349). She was an extremely cruel woman. Historians who have been bought off by the elite like to picture Eliza Davidson as a very pious woman. Although she had a religious front, there are a number of things in her life that show that she was not the paragon of virtue that the paid-for historians have made her out to be. When she married William Avery Rockefeller she moved in with him and his mistress.

THE FIRST NOTABLY RICH ROCKEFELLER. William Avery Rockefeller had many bastard children, and it can be imagined many children born for ritual or for the cult. His wife Eliza had six children for him and of those John Davison Rockefeller is the infamous one who brought the family into limelight. John D. Rockefeller in his lifetime became on of the most powerful men in the world. One of the most best kept secrets were his secret dealings with the other Illuminati families. The Payseurs and other Illuminati families are all intimately involved in the rise to power of the Rockefellers. The other factors involved in John D. Rockefeller’s rise to power Is his utter ruthlessness. He was willing to do anything for power. John o. Rockefeller established the family in their principal estate at Pocantico Hills in New York. I have lost the exact figure, but over 100 Rockefeller families live at the private land of Pocantico Hills. A BRIEF SURVEY OF THE ROCKEFELLER’S INFLUENCE The Rockefellers have divested much of their holdings into places which they control, but nominally they are not owners of. The Rockefellers financial power Is far greater than the balance sheets would indicate. The Rockefellers can give donations from an organization which they control to another that they control, and not lose any control over the money. The donations look Impressive, but the Rockefeller bloodline hasn’t lost. Have you ever noticed that Rockefeller’s Standard Oil uses the satanic pentagram in a circle as their logo? Just three of countless Rockefeller companies are Texas Instruments and , and Eastman Kodak. The Rockefellers also control Boeing. This author (Fritz Sprlngmeier) has repeatedly been given information from numerous sources about the occult activities that are being perpetrated at the Boeing plants in the Seattle area. Monarch programming has even taken place at a Boeing Plant. All these things fit together when one gets the bigger picture and the inside scoop. The Rockefellers also control Delta. Has anyone realized that the Delta symbol is a very widely used satanic symbol? Is It any wonder so many Illuminati and CIA, and world financiers, and people like Chuck Coison (see the exposes on Chuck Colson in 93’s newsletters) use Delta to fly on. My notes are lost, hut suffice It to say the Rockefellers own land all over South America. The Rockefellers own land most anywhere anyone would want to visit in the US. from Hawaii to Texas to Florida and Seal Harbor, Maine. Notice how often Bush would go to Maine when he was President?

The Rockefellers have played a role in Lucis Trust and the United Nations. Interestingly, you will notice that Prince Charles is the spokesperson for Lucis Trust and also works with the United Nations in various ways. Prince Charles Is from another satanic bloodline. Readers need to study my Be Wise As Serpents book to see how Lucis Trust fits into things. The Rockefellers were involved in the creation of the FBI, so that the FBI has always been an arm of power for the Illuminati. That is why there are official FBI programs in action today to kidnap children and provide them for sacrifice. Yes, American people, the wolf was set in charge of guarding the chicken coop. The organization that is working as part of the FBI is the Finders. (The stink was so bad that US. News & World Report did a story to soften the impact of the scandal. See the article on a following page. Ex-Satanists who worked with the FBI to receive the children the FBI kidnapped and sold to them for sacrifice have been trying to get the word out publicly about the FBI’s corruption. When the Illuminati was beginning to get exposed in the Franklin Saving & Loan case in Lincoln, NE the FBI was part of the dirty actors and was part of the cover up. The Rockefellers have had control over the FBI since they helped get it started. When Congress wanted to investigate the CIA for wrongdoing the appointed a Commission headed by Rockefeller to investigate the CIA’s wrongdoings! Yes, the Rockefeller Commission did a big study and slapped the hands of the CIA for a few misdeeds. Their report is still cited as the big investigation of the CIA. Some investigation! Since the Rockefeller family work hand in hand with the CIA to create Monarch slaves, of course that part of the CIA’s misdeeds got overlooked! A recent convert from Satanism, Michael McArthur, has given validated inside information about the FBI and the CIA programs which kidnap children in order to supply Satanic rituals with sacrificial material. The names of the agents who spend their official government time kidnapping children for Satanism that Michael knows about are as follows: Chucky “Mike,” “Peters”-FBI hit man in Div, 5 of FBI, involved with ins law case Nichol Harrah--FBI agent who abducts children for sacrifice Unda Krieg Satanist working for FBI Ken Lanning FBI agent who abducts children for sacrifice Nick O’Hara FBI hit man, Satanist, has covered FBI child kidnappings by murder Kape Richardson CIA agent who abducts children for sacrifice Rather, than risk election, a brilliant coup d’etat which Is exposed in Be Wise As Serpents. was carried out to put Nelson A. Rockefeller into the Vice-Presidency. The Rockefellers control both education and religion in this country by their foundations. The Rockefellers have played key roles in the CFR. Rockefeller wrote the book the Future of Federalism which supports the union of nations into a world government. For many years the Rockefellers have been pouring billions of dollars into projects and international groups which are working to bring in a public One-World government. (The world already has a secret One-World-Government.) The Rockefellers take part in decisions that effect Russia, China and other parts of Asla and with good reason, the House of Rockefeller has holdup and assets in these countries too. The investigator of the Rockefellers will find that they have secretly had their hand in the politics of the United States during the 20th century. The decisions and directions this nation has taken, are the result of countless orders which the Rockefellers have given to their underlings.

Rockefellers if my theory about them is wrong as well, so I will offer the same exact apology as was given in Chapter 3 to the Rothschilds should I be wrong in my theoretical interpretations. Once again, this is ANOTHER THEORY which matches the

Rockefellers with the anti-Christ profile. In Truth, you could name George Soros, Bill

Clinton, the President of Italy, the Vatican of Rome, the leader of the PLO, the President of Russia, or the democratic leader as THE ANTI-CHRIST, but in this theory, we shall find out if the Rockefellers also fit the ANTI-CHRIST profile. Now if neither the

Rockefellers nor the Rothschilds have the anti-Christ in their midst, then we know for certain that everything that they built has led to the complete dominion of Satan’s son over all their hard work – whether it has already happened or will happen soon.

I would like to personally apologize to the Rockefeller Family if my theory is wrong, way off base, and completely absurd. I could be accusing my brother falsely by putting the anti-Christ tatoo on the whole family. For all I know, the Rockefeller Family might actually be good men who wanted to improve the human race by organizing a system that might work best for humanity. IF I am wrong in my theory and the anti-

Christ does not dwell among the Rockefellers, then we must consider that even though the family fits the profile of the Revelation 13 beast, IT IS 100% CERTAIN that their SYSTEM that they created will be taken over by the anti-Christ. Everything the

Rockefellers created through the financial system will ultimately come under the control of the beast and the false prophet, so that no one can buy or sell without their name.

It is already a fact that the whole world cannot buy or sell without accepting the

Rothschild and Rockefeller names behind business banking, so it’s easy to see the men of power who are in charge of international banking, to be NETWORKED with the body of the beast’s kingdom.

This means that the exchange of buying and selling, THE BANKING SYSTEM with a NEW IDENTIFICATION PROCESS will be taken over by the anti-Christ – if he hasn’t taken it over already. So even if my theory about the Rothschilds is wrong, THEIR

SYSTEM and WHAT THEY CREATED IN THE FINANCIAL SYSTEM is heading or has already headed for THE BEAST of Revelation 13. The only way in which the beast can be stopped is if THE GLOBAL BANKING SYSTEM is brought down.

During the tribulation of the last 7 years of life on earth, that SYSTEM will be brought down permanently with no chance of rebuilding, recovery, or hope to return to

International Banking as the world shall be set free from slavery to the beast by the splendor of the rapture of Jesus Christ’s Second Coming. The signs just before the rapture of Jesus Christ’s Second Coming are recorded in Matthew 24 and wrath is coming upon all who have accepted the mark of the beast and his global financial system.

Although conspiracy theorists could be theoretically wrong about the Rothschilds being bad, sinister men out for an evil agenda on behalf of Satan, we must consider the history of what it is they created to determine whether their FINANCIAL, ECONOMIC

DOCTRINE is from the God of the Holy Bible or the god of hell – Satan. The financial system seems to come more from a Satanic doctrine than a New Testament doctrine and we can only make judgments, not necessarily against the Rothschilds alone, but against the SYSTEM they created, which has enslaved all mankind and womankind.

Excerpts From Book:

THE ROCKEFELLER SYNDROME By: Ferdinand Lundberg Copyright 1975 *All rights Reserved Loxley’s Commentary At The End

[PAGE 9] – From $600 million to $10 billion—there are on public record positively no authentic, fully certified, standardly audited figures and inventory on the dimensions of the Rockefeller fortune at any given moment inn time. The Washington hearings of 1974 produced no such credible figures.

[PAGE 10] – One often encounters the statement that the original John D. Rockefeller— John I—was personally worth $900 million in 1913 after having already funded foundations at approximately $500 million. The figure comes from the known market value in that year of the known amount of Standard Oil stock he owned at the time of the Supreme Court dissolution decree of 1911. But the figure does not include the value of his other undisclosed large holdings in the UNITED STATES STEEL, of which he was the largest stockholder at its inception in 1901, INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER COMPANY, in whose merger he participated, and many other companies and banks such as the NATIONAL CITY BANK OF NEW YORK…For John D. Rockefeller as of 1911- 1913 owned much more than 25 percent of the STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF NEW JERSEY.

[PAGES 12 – 13] The Congressional hearings dragged on for more than four months. Seventeen days were devoted to public sessions, others in camera. Some 300 FBI agents out of 37 offices staged 1,400 field interviews, an unusual scrutiny of an upper level candidate.

[PAGES 13 – 14] Why was Nelson Rockefeller, a nominal Republican, confirmed – by 90 to 7 in the Senate, 287 to 128 in the House of Representatives? Both bodies were overwhelmingly manned by members of the formally adversary Democratic party, dual arm of the collusive American bipartisan system that is, in effect, one party. The Senate Rules Committee had recommended the confirmation by 9 to 0, the House Judiciary Committee by 26 to 12…Rockefeller had zig-zagged in and out of the near-the-top federal appointive posts since 1940, was governor of the fabulous Empire State for fifteen years, and his family had been heavy funders, secret and open, of THE GRAND OLD PARTY since the 1870s…As Vice-President, then, he would have no more constitutional say-so than he had as a nominally plain citizen with thousands of devoted chums in key government posts, STATE and FEDERAL, MANY OF THEM RECIPIENTS OF ROCKEFELLER PECUNIARY [MEASUREMENTS OF MONEY] AWARDS, LOANS, & MONETARY GIFTS…As later events showed, President Ford yielded him an unusually active role for a vice-president, almost enough to qualify as an assistant president or viceroy. He was first put, in charge of the special commission to investigate the self-inculpated CIA, which amounted to the executive branch investigating itself. He was also made vice-chairman of the president’s DOMESTIC COUNCIL and allowed to organize it with some of his own people in charge…The Rock unquestionably advises behind the scenes on many matters…Although the final report in June, 1975, of his Commission on C.I.A. activities adundantly confirmed that for more than 2 decades there had, as charged, been massive illegal domestic C.I.A. operations against critics and opponents of entrenched politicians or their policies, the Commission recoiled from probing into the charge that the agency had staged numerous assassinations abroad. The report said the Commission found no ‘credible evidence’ that the C.I.A. was involved in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

[PAGE 16] While neither Nelson Rockefeller nor any member of his family ever had such a general final voice in national policy-making, both he and his family for decades have made, usually through their top lawyers, an extensive input of advice and recommendations to a generally receptive officialdom in all departments of the government from bottom to top, including the White House…With respect to almost every president since Chester A. Arthur, they have had ground-floor entrée and have been respectfully listened to…In other words, not kings themselves, they have long been among the ducal coutiers, palace advisors, and king-makers…For under no statutes or in the Constitution is there any barrier to a wealthy person entering the White House as a suzerain.

[PAGE 18] Most of the wealthy in the United States get their way through stooges in the government, onetime poor boys who are ‘SUCCEEDING’ and surreptitiously building estates, a la Johnson and Nixon, while holding office, panting their way up the shaky ladder from oblivion to obscurity, selling the favors of the State under the table…As to why Rockefeller wants to be president, which it has long been clear he does, the reasons are not too evident. He certainly does not need the office to add to his wealth, which is blooming to high heaven anyhow.

[PAGE 20] The oppressively massive and extensively deployed ALBANY MALL is one clear illustration that Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller is a man of imperial, possibly zany, ambition, one whose dreams take him far beyond the mere possession of a large fortune. Nobody else asked for the Mall, which cost $1 to $1.5 billion of public money, and which was build without legislative or popular approval…nobody seems to have troubled to ask what the FIVE TOWERING, GRIM ARCHITECTURAL SLABS MEAN, subjectively or objectively. Governor Rockefeller, acting autonomously for the state, entered into an agreement with Mayor Erastus Corning of Albany, acting for Albany County...The County now sold to the banks, insurance companies, and big investors tax-exempt bonds and reimbursed the state each quarter for the first-instance funds.

THE TWIN TOWERS OF NEW YORK CITY (Pages 23 – 24)

While Nelson Rockefeller was devising the imperial slabs of the Mall in Albany, his younger brother David was busily arranging with the Rockefeller-packed Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to have built with public money, no legislative approval needed, the $750-million twin 110-story towers of the eye-crushing, soul- shattering World Trade Center on Lower Manhattan. It was tax-exempt. The country, then, or New York State, therefore possesses two architectural monstrosities single-handedly produced by rivalrous Rockefeller brothers at taxpayers’ expense. For at the end of the line the taxpayer in both these cases foots the bill, as he does for everything else financial politicos devise. The two structures therefore represent a double screwing. The two oppressive structures stand, one in New York City, the other in Albany, like giant bookends of the gods, with Rockefellerland-on-the-Hudson stretching in between, the home domain. In the meantime, ordinary citizens crawl along in the overpowering structural shadows like bugs, reduced in physical proportion to their true spiritual proportions in the established scheme of things….

THE INTERNAL SYMBOL OF ROCKEFELLER CENTER, FOR EXAMPLE, IS A HUGE GILDED , THE GREEK GOD OF LIGHT, FIREBRINGER TO THE WORLD, TORTURED AND HELD PRISONER BY ZEUS FOR HIS GOOD DEEDS ON BEHALF OF MAN. NEARBY IS THE GOD , SUPPORTER OF THE LOST CONTINENT OF ATLANTIS, THE ATLANTIC WORLD. Both of these were overpowering characters in Greek mythology.

DIVERSIFIED STOCK HOLDINGS (Pages 29 – 33)

The first figure given out on the extent of Nelson’s wealth was $33 million. The next figure to come up was $62,581,225, which also soon fell by the wayside, going to $69 million and then $73 million and finally more than $100 million. As it turned out, he was also the beneficiary of two trusts worth, as of August 23, 1974, the extremely depressed market value of $116,503,758…In addition his wife holds securities and is the beneficiary of trusts aggregating $3.8 million, and his children hold assets, in trust or directly, totaling $35.7 million. All this comes to $218.584 million for his own nuclear family, at very depressed market prices—and is understated even so. If one assumes that each of his brothers and his sister have similar holdings, the holdings of the family come to $1.3 billion, a figure approximate to one later submitted by the Rockefeller family manager.

In the 10 years up to 1974, Nelson Rockefeller received total income of $46.8 millino, of which about $1 million each year came from tax-exempt securities… Combined, the liquid incomes of the family exceed $30 million per year. Deferred income puts the total above $50 million.

By giving away $10 million of appraised art acquired years earlier for $1 million cash, one offsets $9 million of cash income, leaving it tax-exempt instead of having to pay some $7 million tax. The deal therefore nets close to $6 million, less insurance.

What Rockefeller held specifically consisted of diversified stocks in leading corporations, certificates of deposit and bonds, state and municipal bonds, corporate bonds, and U.S. Treasury Bills. ROCKEFELLER CORPORATION STOCKS held included:

ALUMINUM COMPANY OF AMERICA AT & T ARCHER DANIELS MIDLAND CAPITOL HILL ASSOCIATES CATERPILLAR TRACTOR COHERENT RADIATION LABORATORIES CONTINENTAL OIL COMPANY CORPORATE PROPERTY INVESTORS CORNING GLASS WORKS DANIEL INTERNATIONAL DOW CHEMICAL EASTMAN KODAK EXXON GENERAL ELECTRIC HEWLETT PACKARD C.A. INDUSTRIA LACTEA DE CARABOBO INTEL INTERNATIONAL BASIC ECONOMY CORPORATION IBM INTERNATIONAL PAPER ITEK MARATHON OIL MERCHANTS INC. MERCK COMPANY MOBIL OIL PAC OCEAN OIL RELIANCE ELECTRIC ROCKEFELLER BROTHERS, INC. STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF INDIANA TELEDYNE, INC. TEXACO, INC. URBAN NATIONAL CORPORATION WARNER LAMBERT CORPORATION WESTINGHOUSE

In trust funds there were also holdings of:

DU PONT GENERAL ELECTRIC CATERPILLAR TRACTOR MINNESOTAT MINING AND MANUFACTURING MONSANTO IT&T MOTOROLA UPJOHN S.S. KRESGE

As to the holdings of the major Standard Oil companies by descendants of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., they were given as follows:

Shares % STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA 3,506,954 2.05 EXXON 2,355,613 1.07 MOBIL OIL 1,778,719 1.75 MARATHON OIL 205,224 0.68 STANDARD OIL CO. OF INDIANA 154,652 0.23 CHASE MANHATTAN BANK 429,959 1.34

As none of this by itself is sufficient to ‘control’ any of these companies, how control is achieved will need to be discussed…Any Swiss-Dutch-Arab syndicate with plenty of money is at liberty to try taking over. The simple reason no extraneous group, no conglomerate, would dream of reaching for any of these companies is that they know or strongly suspect they are completely controlled—and that by the Rockefellers.

J. Richardson Dilworth, general manager of Rockefeller Family & Associates said that the Rockefeller family is not interested in controlling anything. “The family members are simply investors.”—that is, renters, income poops. Investments over a wide corporate ranges owned outright by 84 members of the family totaled $244,220,000 and similar investments held by them in personal trust came to $51,168,000. Investments held in trust for his descendants created by John D. Rockefeller Jr. were as follows:

1934 TRUSTS $640,000,000 1952 TRUSTS $98,600,000 CHARITIES $224,599,000 (Of Which 90% related to Rockefeller University and , Inc.)

Shares of ROCKEFELLER CENTER are not traded, are wholly owned by the trusts, and hence have no current ‘market value.’ The assigned market value of $98.3 million for the Center, furthermore, is ridiculous unless 9/10ths of the Center is mortgaged to others. The assessed valuation of the Rockefeller Center for tax purposes was given as $133 million. Assessed valuations in New York City are only a fraction of true values. The lower the assessment, the lower the taxes. Leading real estate experts in New York appraised Rockefeller Center as worth, overall, at least $1 billion, or ten times more than the value assigned to it in Dilworth’s statement…Not touched upon at all in Dilworth’s presentation was the Rockefeller Foundation, which at the end of 1969 had assets of $757,088,188...Taking only major stockholdings of the Rockefellers as ascertained by a joint Senate-Securities and Exchange Commission study “INVESTIGATION OF CONCENTRATION OF ECONOMIC POWER, 76th Congress, 3rd Session, (Monograph 29, TEMPORARY NATIONAL ECONOMIC COMMITTEE, 1940-41), one is able to obtain some concrete data. In this study it was shown that the Rockefellers were among the twenty largest stockholders of twenty-one corporations; the study did not inquire into their bond, realty, or bank holdings. The TNEC study, resting ultimately on subpoenas calling for the data found that the family’s holdings consisted of 30 percent in foundations, 30 percent in trust funds, and 40 percent in individual holdings, mostly held by John D. Junior. Somewhere between $2,724,953,240 and $4.741 billion was the projected value of the Rockefeller fortune….After considering various other possibilities, I concluded that the total Rockefeller financial worth as of 1964 was around $5 billion, this figure including foundations, trust funds, and personal holdings.

[PAGE 38-39] According to Dilworth, the present generation of Rockefellers has given $235 million to charity…I conclude, then, that in the present situation, values on how much the Rockefellers own are concealed in temporary market depreciation, omitted holdings, and in non-listed real estate (non-listed on any exchange). Real estate is not considered a liquid asset, as are listed stocks and bonds…So, what the Rockefellers are really worth, depends on what point on the market roller-coaster one reads off the figures, how complete an inventory is submitted, and also what their art, real estate, and unstated assets are really worth. Perhaps the safest conclusion is that they own a tremendous lot of revenue-producing property, which gives them leverage over even larger expanses of property and public events. One must always remember that from the point of view of ‘public relations’, it is to their advantage to understate net worth.

[PAGE 41] The , or Syndicate, is the largest and most important of all, now exceeding the Morgan Group gathered around the Morgan Guaranty Trust Company and Morgan, Stanley and Company…The financial core of the Rockefeller Syndicate consists of:

CHASE MANHATTAN BANK FIRST NATIONAL CITY BANK OF NEW YORK (CITICORP) CHEMICAL BANK OF NEW YORK FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF CHICAGO

Closely allied with them are the three ‘mutual’ life insurance companies:

METROPOLITAN EQUITABLE NEW YORK LIFE

“Mutual” means they have no stockholders, are run as personal reserves (under law) by trustees who in turn are named to the posts by well-placed money-market people…As of 1969 total assets of these seven institutions amounted to $113 billion, or about 25 percent of the assets of the fifty largest commercial banks of the country and 30 percent of the assets of the fifty largest life insurance companies…The tally of assets does not include the trust holdings of the four banks, which amounted to $35 billion and brought up to $148 billion the total of merely basic assets under Syndicate sway…The secular trend for these institutions is for assets to increase. For they are always acquiring new sub- institutions, and book values increase through earnings retained in part. Among these core financial institutions, the directorates are tightly interlocked—that is, directors of one entity sit on the board of another entity, producing a common policy and one big happy family for seven giant institutions. Subject to these are scores of major corporations and lesser banks, all interlocked. In the overarching Rockefeller Syndicate, Doctor Knowles traced twenty-three ordinary functional interlocks plus five additional wherein two members of the same family sit on the boards of two different financial institutions of the group. Knowles now took for comparison four non-Rockefeller banks:

MANUFACTURERS HANOVER MORGAN GUARANTY TRUST BANKERS TRUST CONTINENTAL ILLINOIS NATIONAL BANK OF CHICAGO

Their deposits in 1969 only $40.7 billion compared with $62.1 billion for the four Rockefeller banks—and showed that there were only five director interlocks between them and the three “Rockefeller” insurance companies.

The Rockefeller Syndicate also heavily dominated the board of the:

CONSOLIDATED EDISON COMPANY

The second largest utility company, and until 1969 all six of the Rockefeller entities in New York had directors on its board.

FIRST NATIONAL CITY BANK (CITICORP)

The First National City Bank (Citicorp) is the headquarters of the William Rockefeller branch of the family. Is the headquarters of the William Rockefeller branch of the family. At one time John D. Rockefeller held stock in it, but he transferred to

CHASE NATIONAL BANK, now CHASE MANHATTAN (JP MORGAN CHASE)

[PAGES 43 - 46] The Rockefellers alone do not own any of these institutions, or single- handedly ‘CONTROL’ them, just as John D. Rockefeller neither owned nor controlled Standard Oil Company. His interest in it ranged at different times between 25 and 30 percent. His associates together owned more than he did…The associates could have outvoted John D. any time. The point is: they did not want to. The general staff does not vote down a field marshal who is winning battles, conquering the world. In the same way David Rockefeller, as chairman of Chase Manhattan, is the spokesman or head man for this group, functioning much as John D. did in Standard Oil subject to suggestions and criticisms from his associates, but having much more pervasive power.

The family interlocks at the top of the Rockefeller network, apart from those purely functional, are as follows: DAVID ROCKEFELLER (CM) ROCKEFELLER (FNCB) HULBERT S. ALDRICH (CB) MALCOM ALDRICH (E) AMORY HOUGHTON, JR. (FNCB) ARTHUR K. HOUGHTON, JR. (NYL)

CHEMICAL BANK OF NEW YORK is the outgrowth of a merger in 1955 between the CHEMICAL CORN EXCHANGE BANK and THE . In this latter, the dominant family was that of Edward S. Harkness, descendant of Stephen V. Harkness, chief Standard Oil associate of Rockefeller in early days, the largest S.O. stockholder after the Founding Father. Malcolm and Hulbert Aldrich were for many years partners and advisors of Edward S. Harkness. Hulbert started his career with the New York Trust Company, of which he became chairman. Malcolm is chairman of the COMMONWEALTH FUND, a huge foundation set up by the Harkness family. Hulbert finally became chairman of the board and chairman of the trust committee of the Chemical Bank.

The ties of the first group to the First National Bank of Chicago come through two companies—Standard Oil of Indiana and the International Harvester Company—and the Rockefeller link by marriage to the McCormick family of International Harvester. The bank manages the employee pension fund of Standard of Indiana, which holds around 7.7 percent of the company’s common stock—a big voting position. Brooks McCormick is president of International Harvester and a director of FIRST NATIONAL OF CHICAGO.

The leading directors of all the Syndicate banks all represented large inherited fortunes.

As to CHASE MANHATTAN BANK:

C. Douglas Dillon is the heir of Clarence Dillon of the big investment banking house of DILLON, READ & CO., ambassador to France (1953-1957), undersecretary of state (1959 – 1960), and secretary of the treasury, (1960 – 1965). The party holding the White House made no difference.

Jeremiah Jr., is the principal heir of the Milbank fortune, originating in the BORDEN COMPANY (dairy products) and ramifying into CORN PRODUCTS REFINING COMPANY, THE SOUTHERN RAILWAY, and COMMERCIAL SOLVENTS COMPANY.

WILLIAM HEWLETT, board chairman of the HEWLETT-PACKARD COMPANY.

Whitney Stone, board chairman of STONE AND WEBSTER COMPANY, a principal stockholder in TRANSCONTINENTAL GAS PIPELINE and huge TENNECO INC.

Ralph Lazarus, chairman of the immense FEDERATED DEPARTMENT STORES. Robert O. Anderson, chairman of the ATLANTIC RICHFIELD COMPANY (Standard Oil ARCO), in which he held $70 million of stock as of 1968.

On the Board of FIRST NATIONAL CITY BANK sat:

The Houghtons, owners of 30 percent of CORNING GLASS WORKS.

The Milliken family through Roger Milliken, big holder of Deering-Milliken Company and controlling owner of Mercantile Stores chain.

The Grace-Phipps family represented by J. Peter Grace and John Phipps, major holders in the INGERSOLL-RAND CORPORATION and the INTERNATIONAL PAPER COMPANY. John Phipps is a descendant of Henry Phipps, partner of and the second largest stockholder of CARNEGIE STEEL at the time of its merger into U.S. STEEL. The Graces trace back to the founder of W.R. Grace and Company, 50th largest industrial company in 1969.

George F. Baker, III, a member of FNCB board, principally manages his family’s trust funds and is a heavy holder of FNCB stock. He, too, got his money the easy way, by inheritance. His father was George F. Baker, II, closely associated with J.P. Morgan and for many years the dominant owner of THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK, which merged in 1955 with NATIONAL CITY BANK. Baker and Baker II, the latter married to a Schiff daughter of KUHN LOEB & CO., for many years had heavy holdings in many large corporations, including and especially U.S. STEEL and AT & T.

The FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF CHICAGO Board of Directors were:

Brooks-McCormick of International Harvester and the McCormick-Deering family;

Gaylord Donnelly, board Chairman of the huge R.R. Donnelly Company, large-scale printers;

R. Douglas Stuart Jr., president of QUAKER OATS COMPANY which his family founded;

William Woods Prince, heir to Frederick Prince who controlled ARMOUR AND COMPANY, later acquired by GREYHOUND;

Joseph Block, chairman of the INLAND STEEL COMPANY;

Charles Walgreen Jr., board chairman of the WALGREEN DRUG STORES chain, 33rd largest retail chain in 1969.

Professor Knowles remarked, “The wealthy families who are represented among the directors of these banks do not function as individual centers of power in competition with one another. Instead, they have formed alliances with other wealthy families not only within the same bank but also, in some instances, between banks.”

[PAGES 54 - 55] The following 13 completely controlled family corporations, as Professor Knowles shows, are the first tier of the Rockfeller Syndicate industrial companies with the numbers in parenthesis their rank on the 1969 FORTUNE MAGAZINE list (Fortune, May 1970)

E.I. Du Pont de Nemours (15) W.R. Grace Inc., (50) Corning Glass Works (210) Owens Corning Fiberglass (220) Cummins Engine (245) Hewlett-Packard (293) R.R. Donnely and Sons (304) International Basic Economy Corporation (Rockefeller) (N.R.) Pittsburgh Coke and Chemical (711) Commercial Solvents (674) Deering-Milliken (N.R.) Field Enterprises (N.R.) Mercantile Stores (N.R.)

As a 14th, ROCKEFELLER CENTER, INC., a billion-dollar affair but not rated as an industrial. In second tier there are 23 mammoth industrial corporations over which the group individually and collectively exerts undisputed working control:

1. EXXON (Standard Oil Of New Jersey) 2. MOBIL OIL (formerly Standard Oil of New York and Vacuum Oil) 3. STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA 4. STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF INDIANA 5. INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER 6. MCCORMICK 7. INLAND STEEL 8. MARATHON OIL (formerly Ohio oil) 9. QUAKER OATS 10. WHEELING-PITTSBURGH STEEL 11. FREEPORT SULPHUR 12. ITEK 13. COPELAND REFRIGERATION 14. GLOBAL MARINE 15. MARQUARDT CORPORATION 16. GCA 17. SHAKESPEARE CORPORATION 18. STONE AND WEBSTER 19. FEDERATED DEPARTMENT STORES 20. WALGREEN STORES (33rd largest retailer) 21. MARSHALL FIELD 22. TRANSCONTINENTAL GAS PIPELINE 23. TEXAS GAS TRANSMISSION

Among companies under firm control of the Syndicate, Knowles isolated CONSOLIDATED EDISON and COMPANY. Under coalition with other syndicates, mainly MORGAN, he founded:

AMERICAN TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH U.S. STEEL MONSANTO CHEMICAL GENERAL FOODS

Under joint control with several groups was:

CHRYSLER OLIN CORPORATION PAN AMERICAN WORLD AIRWAYS COLGATE PALMOLIVE BORG-WARNER HOME INSURANCE COMPANY

In the firmly controlled group the Rockefellers had 50 percent or more of the directors, in the coalition group 40 to 42 percent, and in the joint control group 22 to 36 percent.

[PAGE 58] The corporations benefit by having always readily available large pools of bank-insurance company capital for:

1. Short-term loans 2. Syndicate sales of new stock, bonds, & debentures 3. Quick assistance for the owning families in maintaining control 4. Allied corporations functioning as captive suppliers or customers

[PAGES 62 – 68] As Professor Knowles shows, all the directorial elements of the Rockefeller Syndicate hold or have held reciprocal dominating positions in many foundations, many of the leading private universities, corporation directorships outside the leading companies of the group, the federal government up to the cabinet level, in important newspaper, magazine, and publishing houses (idea dissemination), and comprise additionally a widespread network of interlocking corporate directorships apart from the top interlocks of banks and insurance companies. The lists are too long to reproduce here….34 Rockefeller people, leading directors of their banks, insurance companies, and corporations, or otherwise connected, held dominant posts in idea- developing institutions. Five were presidents of leading private universities. Many more were university trustees. Professor James Knowles discusses what he terms the ‘misuse’ of political power by agencies, governmental and private, under the control of the group in IRAN, Peru, India, and Greece and shows that the Rockefeller Syndicate effectively threw its weight with ‘inside men’ against eliminating the oil-import quotas under President Nixon, costly to American consumers.

As long as the corporate world continues to exercise a dominant role in the financing of elections and in the administration of government, a hierarchical power structure in the economic sphere will continue to have its political counterpart.

EXAMPLE: The Domhoff-Schwartz presentation revealed that 15 employees of the Rockefeller family office held directorships in nearly 100 corporations…These corporations included many in advanced technology ventures under the eye of . The combined assets of these companies came to $70 billion…Mr. Dilworth himself was a director in 16 corporations, including the Chase Manhattan Bank, Rockefeller Center, and the International Basic Economy Corporation.

Is there anything immoral, illegal, or subversive about all this? NOTHING WHATEVER! ALL THIS IS IN HARMONY WITH THE SYSTEM.

It seems that the Rockefeller Syndicate, with each member of it having a full coalitional say, controls or influences possibly $500 billion (or more) of income-producing assets, is an integral part along with other similar syndicates of the United States government and exercises a pervasive authority over the managements of cultural institutions such as foundations, museums, libraries, research centers, bird sanctuaries, and private universities and colleges.

[PAGE 69 - 73] Nelson Rockefeller over a period of seventeen years made personal loans and gifts to friends, relatives, and political associates of more than $2 million plus $840,000 state and federal gift taxes. More than 75 percent of it went to political associates in New York with most of the lion’s share ultimately converted into gifts… Many of the loan-gifts or straight loans were substantial. The largest amount, $625,000, went to Dr. William J. Ronan, New York University professor who was, first, Nelson’s executive secretary and, displaying competence, was advanced by stages through important jobs to become, finally, chairman of heavily funded PORT AUTHORITY OF NEW YORK and NEW JERSEY. Prior to this appointment by Rockefeller, he was head of the METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY. He also became the $100,000-a-year advisor to the Rockefeller family…Gift to Rockefeller-sponsored United States Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger, $50,000 in 1969 when he became national security advisor to President-elect Nixon…Loan-gift of $101,900 to L. Judson Morhouse, state Republican chairman who was later convicted in open court of accepting a $100,000 fee from THE PLAYBOY CLUB to bribe and procure for a separate $50,000 a State Liquor Authority chairman, who in turn was duly and securely bribed…A year after Nelson Rockefeller took office as , Laurance Rockefeller made a loan of $49,000 to Morhouse, a general magnet for dubious money. A pre-appointment gift of $31,389 and a loan of $145,000 were made to Edward J. Logue, head of Rockefeller’s pet, the giant URBAN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION, later in vast financial distress at, naturally, public expense…A gift in 1970 of $155,000 to , author, journalist, columnist, and former speech writer for President Eisenhower.

ALTON G. MARSHALL, Rockefeller’s executive secretary in Albany and later President of Rockefeller Center, gift of $306,867

JAMES W. GAYNOR, state commissioner of housing and community renewal, gift of $107,000.

HENRY DIAMOND, head of the Department of Environmental Conservation and then executive director of Rockefeller’s Commission on Critical Choices For Americans, a heavily funded springboard for Rockefeller to the presidency in 1976, gift of $100,000.

MEADE ESPOSITO, Brooklyn Democratic Chieftain, gift of $2,000 Picasso lithograph.

ROBERT ANDERSONE, onetime secretary of the navy and secretary of the treasury, a loan of $84,000 during the interim between these two jobs.

GEORGE DUDLEY, chief executive officer of the New York State Council on Architecture, an out-of-office loan of $6,0000.

JOHN J. GILHOOLEY, former federal subcabinet officer and CITY TRANSIT AUTHORITY member, an out of office loan of $6,000.

WALLACE K. HARRISON, former director of THE OFFICE OF INTER-AMERICAN affairs and architect of record of the Albany South Mall, an out-of-office loan of $60,000.

STATE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION EMPLOYEES, $6,600.

CIA Thomas Braden of the Los Angeles Times Syndicate, financing in the amount of $160,000 in 1954 to purchase the Oceanside, California BLADE-TRIBUNE.

RICHARD NIXON – a 1972 Rockefeller campaign contribution of $200,000.

[PAGE 89] Nelson stated that over the period of the previous 17 years he had made $24,712,245 in charitable donations to 193 organizations. The gifts ranged from $10 for Phillips Academy to nearly $6.6 million to the Museum of Primitive Art; $6,500 to the United States Government and $656,393 to New York State…Recipients included, it was stated, forty-one universities, 18 secondary schools, 17 churches and church organizations, 12 museums, 9 hospitals, and 2 symphony orchestras.

[PAGE 83] Also brought under scrutiny—among many other matters too numerous to mention—was a Rockefeller campaign contribution of $200,000 in 1972 to in junction with a telegram from Laurance Rockefeller, largest EASTERN AIRLINES stockholder, to President Nixon requesting a review of two adverse rulings by the CIVIL AERONAUTICS BOARD. The board had refused an Eastern request to acquire Carib Air from Caribbean-Atlantic Airlines, Inc. Nixon reversed the ruling four months after receiving the contribution. Eastern got Carib Air.

[PAGE 84] A television series was produced during Rockefeller’s governorship titled “Executive Chamber.” The cost of it, $274,704, was defrayed by Rockefeller and was deducted on his tax return as a GIFT TO THE STATE. This deduction was approved by the Internal Revenue Service.

[PAGE 107] NEW YORK WORLD, on September 2, 1908, cited the doings of WILLIAM AVERY ROCKEFELLER, sire to the oil king…Wild Bill Rockefeller was a rapt and dedicated student of THE MOUNT OF VENUS. And in the New York region where he lived, there was finally issued a warrant for his arrest for ravishing a young woman, one of his domestics…The issuance of this warrant induced him to move to another country.

[PAGE 111] At Central High John Rockefeller made two connections that were to be momentous in his life. In the class ahead of his was Mark Hanna, who was later to become the big Republican political boss and president-maker. Back in Owego, New York, Rockefeller had gone to school with Tom Platt, future boss of New York State. Another person at Central High was Laura Celestia Spelman, of a locally affluent family, who was later to become his wife….Deacon Sked introduced John Rockefeller to the nearby ERIE BAPTIST CHURCH, a new congregation later to become the EUCLID AVENUE BAPTIST CHURCH, famed as the Rockefeller spiritual center. There Rockefeller was baptized in 1854…He never had any close friends, not even one… Rockefeller soon became a High School dropout, transferring to a local business college where he concentrated on a three-month course in bookkeeping, the lifelong love…He attended Church regularly and happily. He had found the ROCK OF AGES, to which he would forever cling. The little congregation, however, was soon in financial difficulties, with a mortgage of $2,000 due. Unpaid, the mortgage holder would foreclose. Hearing this news from the pulpit, young Rockefeller was shocked and decided to do something to protect his newfound sanctuary….So successful was he after several months that he had the $2,000, a goodly sum for the times, and the church was finally saved. In gratitude for this initiative, the congregation elected the persistent teen-ager first as secretary and then, at 21, a church trustee.

[PAGE 114 – 115] Rockefeller persuaded his brother William, also in the oil business, to go to New York and establish there William Rockefeller and Company, the germ of the STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF NEW YORK, later SOCONY, then Socony-Vacuum, and now MOBIL OIL…When they speak of Rockefeller power, most people don’t have the slightest glimmering of what they are talking about. What they mean, of course, is CONCENTRATED MONEY, and money—or better, PROPERTIES—is at the core of it…The secret relates to people. For in addition to collecting money, properties, works of art, and the general run of investments, the Rockefellers also carefully collect people, key people, some of them brilliant. And it is the people they collect that is one of the major sources of their pervading power.

[PAGE 116] To his original partners Rockefeller soon added more from among able competitors whom he bought out with stock at full value and brought into his circle:

HENRY HUDDLESTON ROGERS JOHN D. ARCHBOLD OLIVER H. PAYNE J.N. CAMDEN CHARLES H. PRATT JABEZ BOTSWICK AND OTHERS

The various associates made up what later came to be referred to as “THE STANDARD OIL GANG.”

[PAGE 117] When Standard Oil was solidly established, no longer speculative, Rockefeller could afford to take gambles with investments. One of these side investments was acquisition for a song of the rich Mesabi Range of iron ore in northern Minnesota, which he sold with some nearby properties to J.P. Morgan’s UNITED STATES STEEL CORPORATION for $80 million…An additional $8.5 million in cash was paid for the GREAT LAKES ORE-CARRYING FLEET. The deal left Rockefeller the largest single stockholder in heavily watered U.S. STEEL…[PAGE 118] Standard Oil was a company legally chartered under Ohio laws at its inception and it did a legal business.

[PAGES 121 – 127] Leading railroad people like WILLIAM H. VANDERBILT became stockholders of Standard Oil without any record of their having contributed capital. So it may be that the kickbacks took the form of stock rather than money, or of stock and money. Leading bankers, too, who lent money freely to Standard Oil, also turned up as Standard stockholders without having contributed any capital to the company. No doubt the stock gifts led to an easier special loan policy. Simply between the years 1872 and 1879 the portion of total United States refining capacity held by Standard Oil catapulted from 25 percent to 95 percent, giving it an almost total monopoly before either the name of the company or of Rockefeller was publicly very well known. Shortly prior to 1872 Standard had less than 10 percent capacity…The way the railroad officials allowed Standard Oil to operate in time enabled the company to gain a whip hand in the matter of oil shipments. STANDARD, finally, was able to dictate rates, for itself as well as for others. It played one road off against the other, varying shipments as leverage.

Standard Oil acquisitions outside of Ohio, in Philadelphia, Baltimore, and New York, were illegal under Ohio law, which forbade an Ohio corporation to own out-of-state companies without special legislative dispensation. This Standard never had. Standard originally took title to these companies in return for stock but left the original owners in charge…In April 1879, the trust was born, secretly. Under it the individual trustees of companies that had been taken over, the 37 Standard Oil stockholders, and the Standard Oil Company of Ohio conveyed all stock of out-of-state subsidiaries to three trustees, who were clerks of Standard Oil, “DUMMIES.” The untenable theory behind this was that the subsidiaries now no longer belonged, in defiance of law, to but to the trustees. But trustees never own that for which they act as trustees…

What Rockefeller and his associates had done was to establish a secret cartel. And cartels, secret or open, were and are forbidden in the United States although the United States is unquestionably heavily cartelized at this very moment. In Europe, however, much to the disdain of patriotic Americans, cartels exist openly and are legal. But in wicked Europe, governments have participation in the cartels, often to the direct benefit of the public treasury. In the United States the public treasury draws no benefits from the cartels or artificial monopolies. The ones who draw the reciprocal benefits, under the table, are politicians and political parties. Under the American anti-trust laws, prosecutions for monopoly, trustification, or cartelization are wholly optional with the attorney general—that is, the president, whose absolute creature the attorney general is. And heavy political contributions are made, by the cartels, precisely to those candidates and parties that give sub-rosa assurance the anti-trust laws, among others, will be enforced only delicately. Without such benign assurances, NO HEAVY CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS. Now and then, as economic conditions turn sour, unemployment increases, and public tempers rise, the politicians need scapegoats to appease the now restive electorate…The only clear beneficiaries of the process are the defense lawyers, who draw big fees, and competitive newspapers which get revelatory copy—who got what, when, where, and why…

Although it GOUGED ON PRICES, stifled competition, charged all the traffic would bear as it reduced production costs to a minimum, Standard Oil at least did not issue watered stock to the ever-gullible investing public, overstate its capitalization, or fob off inferior products on the consumer. Many other companies did all that. But Standard Oil did just about everything else and was finally found guilty after protracted legal processes of general illegality by two high courts. As early as March, 1892, the Supreme Court of Ohio ordered Standard Oil of Ohio to withdraw from the trust, which was held illegal… The newly formed Bureau of Corporations issued its report on oil transportation and showered the country with figures to prove that Standard Oil was gouging on prices.

Ida M. Tarbell’s heavily documented THE HISTORY OF THE STANDARD OIL COMPANY (1905), is a classic of American expose literature, a really creamy job….they directed attention to the business practice of others, which were far from wholesome. And by reason of this zeal to exculpate Rockefeller, more knowledge and insight has been gained of the entire American social system, of the system of law and indeed, of the constitutional system…With all this material now out in the open and being publicly discussed, there was little the government could do, but bring suit under the feeble Sherman Anti-Trust Act of 1890. Suit was filed November 15, 1906, by, ironically, Attorney General Charles Joseph Bonaparte, grandson of Jerome, brother of the Bonaparte. [PAGE 128] What the court mainly objected to was that the Standard Oil Trust had the intent from the beginning to establish a monopoly and to ‘drive others from the field and exclude them from their right to trade.’ Now it was to become the American cartel idea that if one allowed some competitors to survive, cartelization was OK. Token competition was to be the rule.

The combine was broken down into 38 separate companies, the shares of the subsidiaries distributed to stockholders pro rata. The various companies were to have separate boards of directors and separate officers. Rockefeller resigned as president of Standard Oil of New Jersey, was succeeded by Archbold, his alter ego. William Rockefeller resigned as vice-president and his son, William G. Rockefeller, as assistant treasurer. H.H. Rogers had died. Flagler, now deep in developing the Florida East Coast on his own, gave up his directorship. All the original Standard Oil gang was out, although they retained their huge stockholdings, a nice, nice point.

[PAGE 131] From 1891 to 1899 earnings increased from $27,367,000 to $64,457,000 annually. In 1907 they were $131,291,000 and in 1908 they were $116,460,000. For the automobile was just coming to the fore. Of these earnings Rockefeller’s portion was always between 25 and 30 percent and of him and his management group nearly 60 percent. IN ALL THIS TIME THE VAST MAJORITY OF PERSONS IN THE UNITED STATES LABOR FORCE WAS PAID LESS THAN $1,000 PER YEAR IN WAGES AND SALARIES. As of 1914 a corporation bookkeeper in Chicago was paid $17 per week with no vacations, no pension, no sick leave, no severance pay.

[PAGE 132] As Jules Abels points out, dividends of nearly $40 million per year in the early 1900s compared with a wage bill of $65,000,000 or about $1,000 for each employee. In 1963 STANDARD OIL OF NEW JERSEY paid wages and salaries, including officer’s salaries, of $1,011,278,000 compared with dividends of $592.5 million. Wages and salaries the same year at GENERAL MOTORS were approximately four times the dividends and at UNITED STATES STEEL wages and salaries were ten times the dividends…In the 10 years leading up to 1911 the TOTAL EARNINGS OF THE COMBINE EXCEEDED $1 BILLION.

[PAGE 134] And when such ownership became known, it secretly established or bought ‘INDEPENDENT’ companies in order to deceive the growing number of persons who did not wish to do business with Standard Oil. With its secretly controlled ‘independents,” it waged phony price wars, driving true independents to the wall. Then it raised prices. And when someone would nevertheless refuse to do business either with Standard or one of its satellites, the buyer would be threatened with commercial extinction. There was a wide range of petroleum products, but kerosene was the major one until gasoline took over with the rise of the automobile, motorboat, and airplane.

[PAGE 136 – 139] For Standard Oil to operate as it did, and get its way, it needed political help, in legislatures and executive chambers. And it got this help by paying money, as always…The political payoff men for Standard Oil were, first, J.N. Camden and then John D. Archbold. The public got a close look at how this operation worked because two minor office employees of Standard Oil in 1904 and 1905 took sheaves of letters from the files in Archbold’s office to the offices of William Randolph Hearst’s New York American newspaper where they were photographed, bought, and paid for. Hearst did not make them public until the 1908 presidential campaign…What the letters showed was leading elements of the United States House of Representatives and the Senate receiving steady large payments from Archbold in return for general and specific support of measures and obstructions beneficial to Standard Oil. One of these recipients of large sums was Senator Joseph B. Foraker of Ohio, who at the time was widely regarded as a possible future Republican president. Among other recipients of large sub- rosa funds were Senators Mark Hanna of Ohio, Matthew Quay and Bois Penrose of Pennsylvania, Joseph Bailey of Texas (Democrat); Congressman Joseph Sibley of Pennsylvania, a Democrat…many of these did not have to be sought out but appealed to Standard Oil for funds. President McKinley, through his mentor Mark Hanna, was always deep in the pocket of Standard Oil and the other trusts, a willing puppet. Various critics of Standard Oil charge that the company was a corrupting influence, that it corrupted people who would otherwise have been virginal. One thing is certain: Standard Oil never corrupted anybody. The people it dealt with in this way were already long since corrupted, were self-dedicated to corruption, former poor boys democratically ‘on the make.’ It was corruption, in fact, that made politics attractive to them, an opportunity to build estates while preening before a gullible public….And this is true, too, of newspapers that were “corrupted” by Standard Oil.

As Abels remarks, ‘let it be noted that the records of Standard Oil show that there was a flood of requests from publications of all kinds, newspapers, and newspapermen, to be corrupted with Standard Oil funds.’ And the Archbold files as made public show that it was the same with politicians. MANY WERE BEGGING FOR MONEY…All these seeming separate episodes, and others, simply amount to accidental disclosures of something that is going on all the time, a continuous performance…Hardly anybody in business or politics is ever corrupted by someone else. The corruptee is invariably more than willing to be corrupted by the corrupter.

[PAGE 141] The ‘good guys’ loose in the long run, just the reverse of a Hollywood movie. Or, rather, it turns out on the historical script as written by the corporation- subsidized historians that the good guys, the critics, are really the bad guys— muckrackers, scavengers, defamers. The critics are stigmatized as hysterical demagogues, or worse. The sound men, the true patriots, are—surprise, surprise!—the corporate operators, Rockefeller and his associates and their imitators in the corporate world. And Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon et al. Much is heard in the United States, contantly, about ‘due process of law.’ Everybody is for it. ‘Due process’ means that decisions, whatever they are, are made according to prescribed laws by duly prescribed governmental agencies. Yet, strangely, most decisions in the United States that affect the public interest are not made according to ‘due process’ at all. They are, rather, made by the boards of corporations whose self-serving decisions constantly affect the whole texture of life, often adversely. ‘Due process’ covers a relatively small area, and is usually very late in getting into the areas affected by unilateral, self-serving corporate decisions. [PAGE 142] In the corporate world this is what is known as the ‘OPPORTUNITY’ provided by the land of the free—

PENN CENTRAL RAILROAD I.T. & T EQUITY FUNDING CORPORATION UNITED STATES NATIONAL BANK OF SAN DIEGO FRANKLIN NATIONAL BANK OF NEW YORK FOUR SEASONS NURSING HOMES

And so on, through literally thousands of cases.

“The United States has always been a corrupt society,” Gore Vidal writes. “Periodically, ‘good’ citizens band together and elect to office political opportunists who are presented to the public as non-polticians [like Arnold Swartzneggar]. Briefly, things appear to be clean. But of course bribes are still given; taken. Nothing ever changes nor is there ever going to be any change until we summon up the courage to ask ourselves a simple, if potentially dangerous question: is the man who gives a bribe as guilty as the man who takes a bribe? “

Standard Oil not only ladled out money to politicians, in and out of office, and to newspapers, and quickly hired for itself any especially bright young lawyers it found acting for its competitors or hostile government agencies, but it had vast success in enlisting the aid of certified academicians. And here, in my opinion, was the worst subversion of all—the trammeling of the very citadel of truth…Here, the word is not ‘BRIBES,’ it is “GRANTS.”

[PAGE 149] Until he began endowing the University of Chicago in the 1890s—this on the advice of a newly found brilliant advisor, Frederick T. Gates—Rockefeller’s gifts had been quite helter skelter. He gave mainly to THE BAPTIST CHURCH and to BAPTIST FOREIGN MISSIONS but also, now and then, to some other churches. Rockefeller, too, gave money directly to individuals. Early in his life at the EUCLID AVENUE BAPTIST CHURCH he would unostentatiously press money into the palms of various parishioners he deemed needy and worthy. He would not, however, give money to organizations that served holiday dinners to down-and-outers, about the only charity he ever turned his back on…The high quality of the enterprises for which Rockefeller money thereafter went (apart from MONEY THAT WENT TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES which to date amounts on the record to a visible $100 million and may run to $250 million), is attributable entirely to Gates, who became a Rockefeller window on the world as were Flagler, Rogers, and Archbold.

[PAGE 150] And Gates it was who literally badgered Rockefeller into increasing the size of gifts on the ground that he was accumulating so much money it would destroy his family. All in all Rockefeller dispensed on the non-political circuit a clearly visible $486,719,371.22—and the 22 cents is important as showing how meticulously the record was kept. On top of this, the son, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., in turn gave $473 million… Between the two more than $1 billion was given. Nothing like this had been seen before, anywhere. Nor has it been done since…

The massive FORD FOUNDATION was established in lieu of paying a 90 percent inheritance tax, at the same time helping retain control of FORD MOTOR for the Ford family. Had it not been established, the money would have been vacuumed up in taxes, and no doubt then squandered by the Pentagon.

The main gifts by Rockefeller were as follows:

ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION $182,851,480.90 GENERAL EDUCATION BOARD $129,209,167.10 Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial Fund $ 73,985,313.77 Rockfeller Institute For Medical Research (Now Rockefeller University, a purely high- quality graduate school) $ 60,673,409.15 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO $ 40,000,000.00

[PAGE 151] Many people before Rockefeller gave for centuries to favorite churches, hospitals, asylums, colleges, monasteries, and the like. But nearly always they gave to something specific for which they had a sentimental personal attachment. Giving for the sake of giving was seldom seen, and certainly not on a large scale.

[PAGE 152] For many years critics contended that Rockefeller’s church-going was a hypocritical blind, a cover for nefarious operations…Sunday observance was a routine, a ritual…Rockefeller golfed in all weathers, rain or shine, every day, metronomically…a tidal wave of history was against him, the history of government and law…Rockefeller has always found complete shelter for his conscience in legal and business fictions which he has set up to cover the real character of his acts….He did it because he did not believe he could do anything wrong or that anyone could validly evaluate anything he had done wrong legally, morally, or esthetically….”Whatever I do is right,” was his basic position throughout.

[PAGE 202] If one believes a popular song, “You’re nobody till somebody loves you,” but in the Rockefeller stratosphere you’re nobody unless you are integrally connected with one of the very big money-market banks. Such umbilical connection is the very sine qua non and ne plus ultra, the without which nothing and nor more beyond—the top of the top, the summit of the summit. The Rockefellers, both branches, are so connected, as we have seen—first to CHASE MANHATTAN BANK and FIRST NATIONAL CITY BANK and also to CHEMICAL BANK OF NEW YORK and FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF CHICAGO. They are, in their latter-day manifestation, big bank freaks….The current head of the Pocantico branch as well as of the more extensive Rockefeller Syndicate is David, the youngest of Junior’s children. He is chairman of the ultra-powerful CHASE BANK, as close to God as anyone can get, certainly as close as the pope or the archbishop of Canterbury, and has several times been offered by three presidents the post of secretary of the treasury….New members for the staffs are carefully selected, and staff changes year to year are few.

[PAGE 207] As a result of their funding operations, the Rockefellers possess thousands of staunch friends concentrated in the upper functional and strategic levels of society—in science, scholarship, religion, education, politics, technology, journalism, law, trades unions, social and civil services, business, etc. These funding operations are generally called philanthropies…

[PAGE 209] Naturally, Nelson Rockefeller is foursquare in favor of home, motherhood, the family, religion, prosperity, a dandy job for everyone (someday), equality all around, no discrimination against anyone by reason of race, religion, sex, age, or present condition of ineptitude, a fair day’s work for a fair day’s pay, peace, health, education, welfare—the usual soothing pap dear to political rallies.

[PAGE 210 – 211] Rightist Republicans like Senator Barry Goldwater and Senator Jesse A. Helms of North Carolina conspicuously voted against Nelson’s confirmation whereas most liberals in both houses of Congress voted for him, many of these no doubt in anticipation of a final reckoning the other way in the election of 1976. Had there been Communists, Socialists, or Syndicalists present they would have no doubt voted against him. But the Rockefellers have friends in these quarters, too…Nelson, four times elected governor of New York, resigning after 15 years, and now vice-president, on the threshold of the presidency, is obviously the big political ace of the family…Many in benighted Arkansas considered him an ultra-leftist, but then anyone endorsing Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation is apt to be so considered in that region.

[PAGE 221] The Eisenhower campaign, like all Republican campaigns, was heavily funded by the Rockefellers.

[PAGES 248 – 250] Rockefeller’s tenure is divided by chroniclers into the first ten as liberal and the last five as conservative or reactionary. It was in the first ten years that the most spending was done What Rockefeller did under the rubric of liberalism was as follows:

1. Greatly expanded the state university system, producing a near-replica of the California system. In this process the student body was increased from 36,000 on 28 campuses in 1958 to 246,000 full-time students on 79 campuses. All this, of course, required a great deal of lucrative building at taxpayer expense. At the same time he expanded the community colleges from 14 to 38; these 2- year institutions for home residents are funded partly by the state, partly by the local county, and partly by towns and cities. 2. Caused the creation of the $1.5-billion in Albany, the South Mall, requiring at least the liberal outlay of money. But many liberals more or less gave much employment to the uniformly deserving working class from mine and quarry to the construction industry, at the same time generating lucrative contracts. 3. Led the way to the erection of 29 additional state office buildings from eastern Long Island to Buffalo, with similar widespread beneficent job and contract fallout and much applause from local communities. 4. Brought into being 200 water-treatment plants, thereby exciting the adulation of the antipollution element. 5. Brought into being via bond issues 30,000 URBAN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION residential units, 60,000 units of the HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY, and three new model communities funded by UDC. 6. Pushed through 23 new state mental health facilities and had constructed or expanded 109 voluntary and municipal hospitals and nursing homes. 7. Pressed to completion THE LONG ISLAND EXPRESSWAY, long unfinished. He himself estimated that he had added four and one half miles per day of automobile roads, as the state groaned over mass transit shortages. 8. Increased state aid to local schools and private universities and colleges, and repeatedly led banzai charges to siphon public funds to the Catholic parochial school system. 9. Brought into being 235,000 scholarship awards of $100 to $600 a year for public and private college students and set up 75,000 Regents scholarships for in-state students ranging up to $1,000 per annum. 10. Formed the METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY to take over the mismanaged New York City subway system, the LONG ISLAND RAILROAD, and the commutation passenger services of the internally looted New York Central and long mis-managed New Haven Railroads. 11. Called into being, to deal with the illegal drug problem, a $1-billion narcotics- addiction medical program. Thousands of people were freaking out in the American paradise. 12. Created 50 new state parks and established the Adirondacks Park Agency to supervise and preserve a vast upstate area. 13. Established the State Council on the Arts by which $15 million a year is siphoned to localities for soul-stimulating cultural events. 14. Inaugurated state revenue-sharing with local communities so that about 59 percent of the state budget goes to localities. 15. Placed two dozen Republican county chairman in lucrative posts on the state payroll. 16. Appointed a Republican state chairman to be presiding judge of the sinceure State Court of Claims. 17. Freely appointed Democrats who assisted in his various maneuvers.

[PAGE 253] Approval comes about not because the lowbrows are more than normally bloodthirsty, but because they feel frustrated by being caught in a constitutional system that was established quite consciously in order to frustrate various elements, especially the general populace.

[PAGE 259] Rockefeller also sought, according to reports, to develop within New York State the counterparts of Massachusetts Institute of Technology and California Institute of Technology and got at least the nucleus of such an affair established at Stony Brook, Long Island. The idea behind such triplication of facilities is that it would attract more savants to New York & raise the local tone.

[PAGE 262] Early in 1975 the URBAN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION defaulted on more than $100 million of construction notes due to banks. Some 8,000 workers faced layoffs from many large projects until the state and the banks worked out a new corporation to be backed by tax funds.

[PAGE 264] Some keen political observers in New York State think it very strange that the Democrats always opposed Rockefeller, three times, with weak contenders, people with no statewide image. Such observers suspect that the Rockefellers, through friends in the Democratic party, arranged it that way, didn’t want Rocky to face a real heavyweight.

[PAGE 319] As John T. Flynn opened his biography, ‘For forty years—from 1872 to 1914—the name of John D. Rockefeller was the most execrated name in American life. It was associated with greed, rapacity, cruelty, hypocrisy, and corruption. Upon it was showered such odium as has stained the name of no other American. Theodore Roosevelt denounced Rockefeller as a lawbreaker. William J. Bryan, his fellow Christian, went up and down the land demanding that he be put in jail. The attorney-generals of half a dozen states clamored for his imprisonment. La Follette called him the greatest criminal of the age. Tolstoi said no honest man should work for him. Ministers of the gospel called the money he showered upon churches and colleges tainted. For years no man spoke a good word for John D. Rockefeller, save the sycophant and the time-server.”

[PAGES 320 – 322] As H.L. Mencken noted in 1926, ‘The whole history of the country [the United States] has been a history of melodramatic pursuits of horrendous monsters, some of them imaginary: the red-coats, the Hessians, the monocrats, again the red-coats, the BANK, the Catholics, Simon Legree, the Slave Power, Jeff Davis, Mormonism, Wall Street, the rum demon, John Bull, the hell hounds of plutocracy, the trusts, General Weyler, Pancho Villa, German spies, hyphenates, the Kaiser, Bolshevism…There was also anarchism, the IWW, socialism, neo-communism on top of Bolshevism, free love, immigration of undesirable aliens, carpetbaggers, the Spanish fleet hovering over the horizon of New York, Emma Goldman, invaders from Mars, Soviet submarines and spy ships in the Atlantic, the Black Hand, the Mafia, Cosa Nostra, moonshine poison, the Japanese menace, the Chinese menace, the Yellow menace, the Black Panthers, atheism, Soviet warships in the Eastern Mediterranean, Soviet warships in the Indian Ocean, Soviet warships anywhere, freethinkers, the Viet Cong, white slavery, godlessness, Soviet spies in the State Department, birth control, pornography, un-Americanism, rampaging students with long hair, uppity blacks, and on and on and on. And Rockefeller. What damped down hatred of Rockefeller in combination with self-exhaustion was the appearance on the scene of a brand-new made-in-Wall-Street hate object: The Kaiser and German militarism. These new twin menaces monopolized the stage from 1914 to 1918. But in swift succession there followed Lenin, Mussolini, Stalin, Hitler, Tojo, Trotsky, John L. Lewis, and many, many others. Rockefeller was now all but forgotten, golfing away ritualistically on his various private links until his death in 1937 at ninety-eight… Is Congress corrupt? Any correction to take effect requires full-scale revolution, nothing less, carnage over a wide area, scorched earth from Maine to Yuma, Arizona. A simple eradication of some specific evil is not the way to go about it because, as it turns out for seemingly mysterious reasons, one can’t eradicate evils. They merely hang on and accumulate like barnacles. Rockefeller was unlucky enough to fall afoul of this American proclivity for hatred and fear and felt its full force. Naturally, he and his Standard Oil associates should have been brought to heel early in the game by the law enforcement agencies. But as this was the United States, moves against him, of which were many, were easily blocked by lawyers, sabotaged, or the agencies bought off...Officials who tried to proceed against Standard Oil were simply driven out of politics…Up to 1928 there were 18 major investigations and trials concerning John D. Rockefeller and Standard Oil, enough for years and years of full-time reading.

[PAGE 325] Standard Oil, and the railroads represented something new: the spread of industry to national dimensions. Until the 1870s and 1880s, business had been largely localized. Production and distribution took place within largely self-sufficient regional areas, and each region had little traffic with other regions. The railroads gradually changed that, made it possible for business enterprises to transcend regional boundaries. But newspapers, until later, were tied in with local regional enterprises, looked upon larger enterprises as invading foreigners who undercut the local businesses…the first criticisms of Rockefeller, it is well to note, came from the old-style business community…As to muckracking, anybody who realistically attempts to write about the American politico-economic scene is going to find that he is a muckracker.

THE ROCKEFELLER BAPTIST CHURCHES

[PAGES 326 – 335] As Rockefeller found himself in trouble through the 1880s, he began developing the philanthropic counterpoint that in the course of time began running through the scenario like the dominant theme in a Bach fugue. It was simply a diplomatic tactic that, however, fit in perfectly with his personal syndrome. He had been made a vice-president of THE THEOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY IN CHICAGO in 1882, which focused his attention on the city as a leading Baptist layman. Various Baptists wanted to found a university, the only question being where it was to be located. In Chicago there already existed far on the south side THE MORGAN PARK THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY, BAPTIST, founded in 1867, which was associated with the nearby UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, a jerkwater undergraduate school founded in 1856 by Stephen A. Douglas and others. An insurance company foreclosed on its buildings in 1886. In 1888 there was founded THE AMERICAN BAPTIST EDUCATION SOCIETY with the Reverend Frederick T. Gates of Minneopolis placed at its head. Gates was thus brought to Rockefeller’s attention and soon became his philanthropic guide, later his investment manager. Gates became in this way the latest of the brilliant aides taken up by Rockefeller, who by means of careful testing uncovered competence in others.

After much discussion and argument among the Baptists, it was finally decided to place the new university in booming Chicago. Rockefeller put up an initial $600,000 with the stipulation that $400,000 be raised by his fellow sectarians. Ten acres of land worth $125,000 just north of Midway Plaisance, a parkway, near the site of the coming World’s Columbian Exposition, were thrown in by Marshall Field. Rockefeller later acquired additional land. The Midway connects two giant public parks. The university was therefore sited where it now exists: on a long rectangular strip twelve blocks long and, irregularly, two very long blocks wide…

Rockefeller quickly made additional gifts of $1 million each and by December, 1902, had put up $10 million, most of it in Standard Oil securities and most of it for endowment. Other local people also put in heavy lesser sums, especially Martin Ryerson, the steel magnate. All in all through the years, Rockefeller was to pony up $40 million or more for the university…For centuries, wealthy people in Europe and the United States had given sums of large and small for the creation of universities, colleges, asylums, monasteries, and churches. Doing so was a mark of great respectability, always gained kudos.

In 1876 John Hopkins donated $3.5 million to establish JOHN HOPKINS UNIVERSITY in Baltimore, which moved quickly into the first rank of such institutions and was soon mentioned in the same breath with long-established HARVARD. Leland Stanford in 1885 announced the founding of STANFORD UNIVERSITY in California; it opened doors in 1891. Jonas G. Clark in 1887 founded CLARK UNIVERSITY, which opened two years later as a graduate university. CORNELL UNIVERSITY, founded in 1865 as a land-grant college, was named after Ezra Cornell because he put up $500,000 for buildings. COLGATE UNIVERSITY, in existence since 1819 as a BAPTIST institution under another name, was renamed in 1890 after James Boorman Colgate, a Wall Street broker, who gave it $1 million. PRATT INSTITUTE had been founded in Brooklyn in 1885 with a gift of nearly $4 million from , a Standard Oil associate. And so on.

The university quickly became as good as any in the world, strictly independent… Rockefeller, through Gates left his impress on the institution…without consulting Rockefeller the College administration hastened into an alliance with RUSH MEDICAL COLLEGE. Gates had by then already convinced Rockefeller that he ought to back a medical research institute on the European model, and Rockefeller planned to give it to the University of Chicago…The new UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO opened its doors in 1892, the institute was launched on a small initial scale in 1901 with an initial pledge of $200,000. THE GENERAL EDUCATION BOARD, incorporated under a special act of Congress, began in 1903. The Rockefeller Foundation, proposed to Congress in 1909 but rejected, was established by act of the New York legislature in 1913 and in 1918 came the LAURA SPELMAN ROCKEFELLER MEMORIAL…It is often said that Rockefeller Senior donated $500 million in his lifetime, his son an equal amount. The third generation is credited with donating about $250 million, making initial donations around $1.25 billion. This figure does not include income from the endowments, which about quadruple the total—about $5 billion. Until he began putting up the money for the University of Chicago, MOST OF ROCKEFELLER’S GIFTS HAD BEEN TO THE BAPTIST CHURCH or BAPTIST causes, much of it to BAPTIST FOREIGN MISSIONS, some of it was made to individuals he met under church auspices…

The full extent of Rockefeller disbursements is not known, but it is definitely known that he and Standard Oil and his associates were putting money into:

1. POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS 2. NEWSPAPERS 3. LAWYERS representing the company 4. SPECIAL DISTRIBUTIONS where it was thought they would do the most good, especially to politicians.

In other words, there was a general distribution of money going on all around… Rockefeller’s giving always had purpose, SELF-ORIENTED PURPOSE….but even though he never made any avowal of self-serving intent, the idea of disbursing money “philanthropically” with the intent to do himself some good in the midst of public outcry against him was not overlooked by some of his money-mesmerized Baptist advisors.

Thus Dr. Augustus Strong, head of the ROCHESTER THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY, who was pushing for the establishment in New York City of what became the University of Chicago, said to Rockefeller in a letter in 1887 that:

“Very many people do not understand you and they very unjustly accuse you [which the U.S. Supreme Court, better versed in mundane law than the theologian, found in 1911 was not so]. Your friends love and admire you, but very many are not your friends. Your present gifts, to education and to the churches, do not stem the tide of aspersion as would the establishment of an institution for the public good, so great that it has manifestly cost a large self-sacrifice to build it…You have the opportunity of turning the unfavorable judgments of the world at large into favorable judgments—and not only that—of going down to history as one of THE WORLD’S GREATEST BENEFACTORS.”

…By setting up highly approved philanthropic institutions, Rockefeller created hostages for the consideration of any future judges. The institutions he established were endowed with Standard Oil stock. If Standard Oil went down or was hit too hard, these institutions would also suffer—the University of Chicago, the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, the General Education Board, the Rockefeller Foundation. To strike them would be like striking the Holy Ghost. Any judge would be reluctant to do so…Private universities and foundations are erected in the pattern of insurance companies. They perform a valid function and are backed by an income-producing investment fund. The fund, however, does not produce all the revenues for a university any more than for an insurance company. All the private universities charge tuition fees and the University of Chicago from its inception charged tuition fees. There was no charity whatever involved vis-à-vis the student body, contrary to the belief of the uninformed. Similarly an insurance company sells its policies, hoping to make a profit or at least break even…A private university, therefore, is selling something, like an insurance company and unlike a foundation: the latter relies wholly upon its investment income apart from any new donations. While Chicago was a good place in which to establish a university, the institution was not a gift to the public in the sense of providing free tuition except in the grant of scholarships to stellar students, a small minority. The city of Chicago, in fact, for many years lacked non-tuition higher education. It was not until 1914 that the city established its first junior college; it now has a system of these offering two years of tuition-free college instruction. The tuition-free state university was located some 160 miles to the south, in Champaign-Urbana, where it was costly for most Chicago-area students to live because they could not reside at home and the downstate region offered few part-time jobs to youngsters of the lower classes…It was not until after World War II that the University of Illinois established a large branch in the densely populated Chicago area, offering competition to fee-charging University of Chicago and Northwestern University, a tuition-charging institution under Methodist auspices on the northern border of Chicago…

At the point of meeting the ultimate consumer, something not generally understood, NONE OF THE ROCKEFELLER PHILANTRHOPIES—schools, colleges, universities, museums—IS FREE. The Rockefellers subscribe to Professor Milton Friedman’s dictum: THERE IS NO FREE LUNCH. And on this point, anyhow, they are correct; THE PUBLIC PAYS FOR EVERYTHING, EVERYWHERE, directly or indirectly, visibly or invisibly. There is, truth to tell, no “FREE” anything, anywhere, at any time except possibly for children; and they pay the price by having to tolerate their parents, who are rarely what the children would have ordered had they been able to make rational choices.

[PAGE 336] According to THE FOUNDATION DIRECTORY (Columbia University Press, 1971, pp. vii-viii), before 1900 there were only 18 foundations, and only one of these amounted to more than $10 million while fourteen were worth from $1 to more than $10 million each. In the period 1910 – 1919 there were seventy-five foundations, twenty-two of which had assets of $10 million or more and thirty-six of $1 to $10 million. Today, however, there are more than 26,000 foundations, 90 percent of which were established since 1940, clearly a reflex of crazy tax laws. Only 5,454 of these have assets of $500,000 or more; and only 2,179 foundations had assets of more than $1 million. The largest of all, as we have noted, was the FORD FOUNDATION with assets of $2.902 billion, originally set up to avoid inheritance taxes and keep control of the Ford Motor Company in the hands of the Ford family. Next came the Lilly Endowment with assets of $778 million and then the Rockefeller Foundation with $757 million.

[PAGES 348 - 351] The heads of money-short colleges and universities, for example, are not going to stand up in public and recommend that people read the heady works of Ralph Nader or Ida Tarbell—or THE SCREWING OF THE AVERAGE MAN by David Hapgood. If they feel the need to recommend reading matter, they are far more likely to recommend the works of , Adoph A. Berle, Jr., , or Lewis Carroll. And seekers after study-grants don’t sign manifestos protesting against cost overruns by the Pentagon, the inequities of the tax system, the wobbling transportation system, massive controlled crime, or anything like that. Nor do any of the potential recipients call attention to the star-spangled political mafia of thuggish elements generally in charge…All the juices squeezed out of this scene, the bus moves south toward UNITED NATIONS PLAZA at 42nd Stree (land worth $8 million when donated by Junior, tax deductible)…The travelers can gawk at the colossal twin towers of the World Trade Center, masterminded by David Rockefeller, and preparations just to the south for publicly financed Battery Park City, an idea of David’s, which will contain buildings with 14,000 apartments, a 2,200 room hotel, and two 67-story office towers— holding in all eighty to one hundred thousand people, a small city within the major city. It is all part of a latter-day Rockefeller idea to erect whole new neighborhoods and whole new towns, of which they have several in the works both publicly and privately financed, in and out of New York City…

In the large area between 110th and 125th Streets, we find , a vast cathedral-like structure, planned and financed by the Rockefellers; , 100 percent Rockefeller; MORNINGSIDE GARDENS apartment complex, masterminded by David, financed by contiguous institutions; and a large number of institutions to which the Rockefellers have made significant inputs of funds:

COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY BARNARD COLLEGE THE CATHEDRAL OF SAINT JOHN THE DIVINE UNION THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY JEWISH THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY TEACHERS COLLEGE THE JULLIARD SCHOOL OF MUSIC at THE LINCOLN CENTER COLONIAL WILLIAMSBURG THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO PALISADES INTERSTATE PARK JACKSON HOLE PRESERVE VIRGIN ISLANDS NATIONAL PARK GRAND TETON LODGE WHOLE NEW TOWN OF COLUMBIA, MARYLAND (floated by David Rockefeller on behalf of CHASE MANHATTAN BANK and two insurance companies.)

Everything, as usual, is TAX DEDUCTIBLE, TAX EXEMPT. The general public also pays. And pays and pays. THERE IS NO FREE LUNCH.

Places in which they or one of their foundations have made substantial inputs include

GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK SHENANDOAH NATIONAL PARK YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK Scores of Colleges, universities, medical schools, laboratories, museums, orchestras, settlement houses, developments, clinics, hospitals, and the like….And Rockefeller tax- exempt and deductible grants galore keep the scholars purring happily.

[PAGES 358 – 362] During his early lifetime John D. Rockefeller, after he became successful in the oil business was heavily involved with BAPTIST clergy and theologians. At his home he was often surrounded by them. Later in life he and his son, most of the clergy now banished, were surrounded by scientists, educators, social thinkers, editors, publicists, welfare workers, university officials—all publicly haloed people. Outside of office hours he seldom met with corporate people or bankers. Which was the real John D. Rockefeller? The man in the oil business or the man engaged in avoiding taxes by beveling the edges and sandpapering the rough sides of the present human condition by erecting monuments as millions of tax-dupes cheered? And, although devoted philanthropists in appearance to the outside world, the vehicle for Rockefeller expression throughout the years has been the Republican party, which was always adamantly opposed to having the government carry on analogous benign activity even with taxpayer consent…Leftists in general have gotten an endless amount of mileage out of the Rockefellers, whom they use as a fuse—one of many in their armory —to detonate the world capitalist order.

By deploying philanthropic funds themselves, by private decision, they gained public credit and tax gains, screening their wealth holdings against public attack, and at the same time extended their control and influence over wider areas, gained allies, ideological and substantive.

John D. Rockefeller, The American Baptist Education Society, and the Growth of Baptist Higher Education in the Midwest Article By Kenneth W. Rose Assistant to the Director Rockefeller Archive Center

© 1998. This essay is a revised version of a paper presented at the annual meeting of the Great Lakes American Studies Association on October 13, 1990, at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. The author welcomes the scholarly use of the ideas and information in this essay ______As anyone who has graduated from or worked for one knows, colleges and universities are in constant need of money, and fund-raising for these institutions has become a growing industry in and of itself, as the creative titles for fund-raising positions advertised in the Chronicle of Philanthropy attest. College and university administrators have always been scrambling for money, and the papers, pledge books, and office files of John D. Rockefeller document the find-raising efforts of many school administrators in the late nineteenth century.

Rockefeller, a devout Baptist, was interested in the educational work of his denomination, including the growth and maintenance of missions, academies, and colleges; and in the 1880s he was especially interested in the campaign by the denomination’s leaders to create a great Baptist university.

The efforts to establish this great university in Chicago have been described in several histories of the University of Chicago and in biographies of Rockefeller. Indeed, the authors of one recent discussion of the Rockefeller family history chose to begin their discussion of the Rockefeller philanthropic legacy with Rockefeller’s initial pledge of $600,000 to the American Baptist Education Society for an endowment for the University of Chicago.1 But discussions of Rockefeller’s giving for the University of Chicago tend to overlook the fact that the new school in the Windy City was not the only project of the American Baptist Education Society.

Founded by denominational leaders to promote and improve Baptist education throughout the country, 2 especially in the Midwest and in the South, the American Baptist Education Society became essentially a philanthropic arm of John D. Rockefeller in the process of fulfilling its purposes.

The only large contributor to the Society, Rockefeller used it to channel a total of $539,069.24 to thirty-four different schools during the 1890s, and between May 1, 1902, and May 1, 1914, the Society paid out another $273,494 to various schools.2 Rockefeller’s experience with the Society was his first effort at organized giving; that is, giving his money through a third party which in turn made appropriations according to his guidelines and approval. This was an important step in the evolution of his philanthropy, as he sought to organize his charity to make it more orderly, more deserving, more effective, and less burdensome. By focusing on his contributions to several Midwestern colleges, this essay explores both the changing nature of Rockefeller philanthropy and the limited success of the American Baptist Education Society.

From his earliest charitable gifts in late 1855, John D. Rockefeller tied his philanthropy closely to the religious tenets of the Baptist church, to the organizational and financial needs of the church, and to social needs as perceived by the leaders of that denomination. One needs only to read the list of donations dutifully recorded in his personal ledgers — long lists of giving to the poor, to local churches, to efforts to erect Baptist churches for various ethnic groups, to temperance organizations, and to local and state Baptist societies — to understand the role of the church in defining and widening the scope of his giving.3 As his wealth grew from his business endeavors, so too did his charitable giving, not only resulting in larger gifts but in gifts to a wider range of activities and to individuals and institutions across a wider geographic area.

Word of his wealth and his generosity spread, and the appeals for aid multiplied. “Be not surprised at receiving this letter,” wrote the chancellor of the University of Des Moines in 1884, “your charities are to[o] publicly known to escape my ears.”4 As Allan Nevins, Rockefeller’s chief biographer, has noted, “it was inevitable that under church guidance his benefactions should extend more and more heavily into the college field.”5

The guidance of the church in this is especially important, for until the early 1880s, the proportion of Rockefeller’s contributions that went to educational institutions was small. His personal ledgers indicate that his first donation to a college was a $5.00 gift to a “college at Gambier” on February 2, 1864.6 Four years later he took out a $500 “subscription to Denison 3 University,” a Baptist school in Granville, Ohio that had been established in 1832. This was his first sizeable gift to a Baptist college. Denison received two $1,000 gifts from Rockefeller in 1878, but by then he was also contributing to other Baptist colleges that made appeals to him, giving $500 to both the university at Chicago and to Shurtleff College in Alton, Illinois.

Still, Denison received $10,000 gifts in both 1881 and 1882, remaining his most favored Baptist school. Unfortunately, however, none of Rockefeller’s surviving correspondence reveals why he gave so early and so largely to Denison.7

By the early 1880s Rockefeller was deluged by all manner of requests for financial assistance, and gifts to education began to appear more frequently in his ledgers.8 Baptist educational missionaries often visited Cleveland’s Baptist churches during their fund- raising tours, and here Rockefeller first heard A.C. Bacone, who sought support for a school for Native American Indians, and Sophia Packard and Harriet Giles, the founders of the Atlanta Female Seminary, dedicated to the education of black women. Both of these became early recipients of Rockefeller gifts, Bacone in 1881 and Packard and Giles in 1882.9 That many of Rockefeller’s educational contributions in the early 1880s went to schools for Indians and black women had as much to do with the missionary concerns of the Baptist church as with the traveling plans of a few missionary educators. Rockefeller was beginning to work more closely with the Reverend Henry L. Morehouse (1834-1917), the new corresponding secretary of the American Baptist Home Mission Society (ABHMS).

The Mission Society, which had been supporting Baptist missions and promoting Baptist education since 1832, had three departments: one “to establish churches and Sunday schools”; another “to aid in the erection of church edifices”; and a third “to provide normal and theological schools for the Freedmen and Indians.”10 Rockefeller provided support for the Society as early as June 4, 1879, the same year that Morehouse took over as the organization’s corresponding secretary.11 Henry Lyman Morehouse, a graduate of the University of Rochester (1858) and the Rochester Theological Seminary (1864), entered the ministry in 1864, serving as a pastor in East Saginaw, Michigan (1864-1873) and at the East Avenue Baptist Church in Rochester (1873-1879) before taking his post at the Home Mission Society. He was, according to a colleague, “a man of unusual foresight, executive ability, fearlessness, pertinacity, religious zeal, and public spirit. . . . In the development of denominational policies and in bringing them to 4 effectiveness he had no equal.”12 It was Morehouse who eventually took the lead in forming the American Baptist Education Society, and who succeeded in interesting Rockefeller in major support for both Bacone College, the work of Packard and Giles, and in black education in general.

Morehouse and Rockefeller first corresponded in the spring of 1881 regarding a proposal to change the Society’s Church Edifice Fund from a loan program to an endowed fund that would make grants “to aid feeble churches in procuring suitable houses of worship.” Rockefeller, one of the original contributors to the fund, consented to the change.13 By the summer of 1882, Morehouse was seeking a meeting with Rockefeller to discuss general denominational needs, but was unsuccessful. By mid-August of 1882, however, Rockefeller was beginning to realize that he could bring his denominational giving together through the Home Mission Society, and he wrote to Bacone asking about the Society’s attitude toward, and plans for helping, his Indian college.

Morehouse replied to Rockefeller’s query and continued to request an interview, as well as asking Rockefeller to meet with other needy aid applicants.14 On Christmas Eve in 1883, Rockefeller sent Morehouse the kind of letter that Morehouse had been hoping to receive. It marked the beginning of a change in the wealthy Baptist’s procedure for making his charitable donations and started him on the road toward corporate philanthropy rather than individual charity.

Rockefeller was growing weary of the constant appeals that came to him, and before him sat a letter regarding the Scandinavian Church in Bridgeport. He decided to send it to Morehouse, whose organization was charged with building churches. But in his letter to Morehouse Rockefeller sought relief from these appeals as much as he sought advice. He told Morehouse that he wanted “to avoid having all these people from every part of the country calling on [him] and [was] considering whether it is not much better for the cause” for him to “give all through the Home Mission Society.” He then had a question for Morehouse: “If I were to pay into the Edifice Fund of the Home Mission Society five or ten hundred dollars would it seem to you best to give an additional sum to this or have you other more important calls?”15

For Morehouse this was an open invitation. He had been pressing Rockefeller for an interview, and now he had an invitation not only to call upon him for large contributions to the Mission Society for church building, but also an invitation to approach the wealthiest Baptist 5 with his “other, more important calls.” To Morehouse, this meant the education of African Americans and Native American Indians. Morehouse quickly arranged his first meeting with Rockefeller for January 5, 1884 at the Buckingham Hotel; five days later Morehouse received a $5,000.00 check for the Edifice Fund, “as agreed.” Morehouse wasted no time in arranging another meeting for January 28, 1884.

This meeting resulted in two significant pledges from Rockefeller. In reply to a desperate plea from Sophia Packard of the Atlanta Baptist Female Seminary, Rockefeller made a “confidential” agreement with Morehouse “to give the balance required to pay off the debt of the Atlanta Seminary, some $4950.00, in addition to [his] former pledge of $2,500.” The school would be renamed Spelman Seminary, as Packard had suggested in her letter.16 Rockefeller made another pledge that night, a $25,000 pledge “for a Professorship or Chair in a Colored Baptist Theological Seminary at Richmond, Virginia . . .provided another equal amount is raised.”17 Morehouse clearly had interested Rockefeller in black education in a big way, and continued to press his case for donations to this cause. On February 7 he arranged a meeting between Rockefeller and the president of Shaw University, who left New York with Rockefeller’s $250 check deposited in the school’s account with the Mission Society.18 This flurry of activity between Morehouse and Rockefeller in early 1884 before both left the city for extended trips illustrates Rockefeller’s realization that he needed organizational help in carrying out his charitable work, and his increasing trust in Morehouse and the Mission Society. Theirs became a closer working relationship during the next two years, and by March 20, 1885, Rockefeller felt sufficiently comfortable with their arrangement to send Morehouse an unusually long letter that marked still another change in their relationship.

Rarely did Rockefeller write letters of more than two pages, but his March 20, 1885, letter to Morehouse stretched to four pages. He again asked for advice regarding a specific church-building proposal, this one in Wheeling. But now he went beyond merely asking advice and information regarding specific requests he received, and made three proposals of his own for which he solicited Morehouse’s opinions. One of these plans was a donation of $20,000 toward a proposed $70,000 church project on Sixth Street in Manhattan. He then solicited advice regarding ideas he had for new gifts to Spelman and to the Indian university. Morehouse was overjoyed with the letter and endorsed all of Rockefeller’s ideas for new gifts:

“How 6 inexpressibly refreshing are such spontaneous suggestions and purposes to honor the Lord with one’s substance, as contrasted with high-pressure, cork-screw methods to obtain benevolent contributions from some who hold on to every dollar as if they expected to take it to glory with them!”19 Rockefeller’s new trust in his opinions and advice intensified their relationship, and soon Morehouse hoped that Rockefeller would provide major support for his new educational initiative.20 By the late 1880s, Morehouse had become concerned about the denomination’s inability to provide financial assistance to its schools. The Mission Society was only empowered to assist schools for Indians and blacks, and in 1887 Morehouse began advocating the creation of a national Baptist organization to assist Baptist academies and colleges across the country. He found ready support for such an organization among Baptists in the West and in the South, while Eastern leaders were less eager for such an organization. Despite the sharp divisions, Morehouse succeeded in establishing the American Baptist Education Society (ABES) in May 1888 to promote “Christian education under Baptist auspices in North America.” As Frederick Gates recalled in his memoirs, the vote to establish the Education Society was “a popular victory for the moneyless and educationally destitute West and South, over the moneyed and educationally well-provided Eastern and New England states.”21 As secretary of the new organization, Frederick Gates knew firsthand the problems that the promoters of Baptist education faced in the West. After his graduation from the University of Rochester (1877) and the Rochester Theological Seminary (1880), Gates spent eight years as pastor of a church in Minneapolis, and he had most recently completed a successful drive to raise $50,000 for the endowment of a “feeble academy” in Owatonna, Minnesota, surpassing the goal by nearly $10,000. Despite his sympathy and support for the idea of a national organization to raise funds for Baptist education, Gates still voted against the plan in May 1888, believing the timing inappropriate, given the sharp divisions within the denomination’s leadership.

But with a foot in each of the bitterly divided camps, Gates became a logical choice to mediate the differences and bring about a reconciliation, and Morehouse nominated him as the only candidate for executive secretary.22 Gates soon had an opportunity to show exactly how “educationally deprived” the Baptists in the West were. A major reason for the geographically based division among Baptist leaders 7 over the establishment of the Society was the on-going debate about whether to build a great Baptist university and where to locate it. The chief rivals were Augustus Strong of the Rochester Theological Seminary, who favored New York City as the site of the university, and Thomas W. Goodspeed of the Morgan Park Theological Seminary, who favored Chicago. In thinking about how best to promote Baptist education in the West, Gates decided that a major Baptist university located in Chicago would be the best stimulus to education. In October 1888 he prepared a report that argued for locating the university in Chicago; his report is generally credited by historians of the movement with persuading other leaders of the denomination, including John D. Rockefeller, in this direction.23 Resembling the social surveys that would become major tools of Progressive social reformers after the turn of the century, Gates’s report used statistics to compare Baptist educational efforts in the West with those of other denominations, and it offers valuable insight into how Baptist leaders judged their own work.

Gates offered a demographic portrait of Baptists in the West that illustrated the denomination’s relatively poor educational work there. He defined the West as that part of the country north of the Ohio River, west of state of Ohio, and east of the Rockies, an area that held 373,000 Baptists. The region contained eleven Baptist schools offering at least some collegiate courses. Total enrollment at these schools was 1,257 students, only about a fourth of whom were taking college courses. These schools owned property valued at $881,670.

By comparison, the 145,000 Congregationalists in the West operated fewer colleges (eight) worth more money ($1,743,000) and enrolling more students (1,639). The Presbyterians, with only 119,000 members in the West, had as many schools as the Baptists (eleven), but these were worth far more ($2,437,000) and enrolled 1,874 pupils.

The Methodists had twenty-one schools, worth $5.3 million, and enrolling 5,652 students. Gates calculated that on a per member basis, the Congregationalists owned five times more educational property than the Baptists and enrolled four times as many students; the Presbyterians had nine times as much educational property and four times as many pupils; and the Methodists more than six times the educational property and five times the students.24 Gates then turned from his denominational comparison to actual conditions in the eleven Baptist schools. Each was located poorly, so that “the area of their attractive influence in their respective states” was small. Only about a fifth of the western Baptists lived “within the 8 effective attraction of our western colleges.” None of these small-town schools was significant enough to attract students from far away. The result was that many of “the ablest and most promising”’

Baptist youths were going to the schools of other denominations or, even worse, to state-supported schools, which Gates characterized as “the State Higher Schools of Irreligion.”25

Moreover, the existing Baptist schools in the West were poorly financed: only six of the eleven had endowments, and the sum of these endowments was only $409,000, less than the individual endowments of the denomination’s three leading eastern colleges. As a result, buildings on the campuses of these western colleges were “few, small[,] . . . cheap, inadequate and old,” Gates found, while western Baptist professors, on average, were paid about half the salaries of their eastern colleagues.26

The problems that Gates enumerated were not, he argued, the result of apathy or niggardliness on the part of western Baptists, who had shown “great self sacrifice and generosity.” Instead, Gates found that the “great and fatal difficulty” for Western Baptist education lay “in the unfortunate locations chosen for our institutions.” With the exception of the college in Des Moines, Baptist colleges were located in “small obscure towns . . . . far removed from the centres of our western life and western means. . . . out of the sight and interest of our wealthy men.”

The solution Gates put forward was “to found a great college, ultimately to be a university, in Chicago,” a well-endowed, exemplary university that would rival the best on the continent. “Chicago is the heart of the west,” Gates argued, “the fountain of western life,” and the city alone would “lift so far aloft a Baptist college as an intellectual and religious luminary, that its light would illumine every state and penetrate every home from to the Rocky Mountains.”27 Gates’s report proved persuasive to the members of the Society and to John D. Rockefeller, who read it in November. Six months later Gates persuaded Rockefeller to pledge $600,000 toward a one-million dollar endowment for the new university at Chicago.28

Prior to pledging his support for the University of Chicago, however, Rockefeller had agreed to support the broader work of the American Baptist Education Society, a decision prompted again by his growing trust in the man charged with running the operation. In the summer of 1888, as Gates and Morehouse set about creating the “financial constituency of the Society,” Morehouse asked Rockefeller to support the young Society, but Rockefeller knew little about its work and what he had heard came from acquaintances who were hostile to its 9 formation, a fact which he duly noted to Morehouse. “I am not prepared to make a pledge to the American Baptist Education Society,” he replied, “maybe in part because of a lack of sufficient information, but I do remember having some conversation at the time with those who did not regard it a necessity.”29 The burden of educating Rockefeller fell to Morehouse, Gates, and those who supported the plan for a university at Chicago. A series of correspondence and meetings in the ensuing months, aided by Gates’s report, succeeded, and in mid-January 1889, Rockefeller asked to see “a statement of the expenses . . . and the receipts” of the Society. He then asked Morehouse to bring Gates to a luncheon meeting, after which he invited Gates to accompany him on the train from New York to Cleveland. Sizing up Gates favorably, Rockefeller soon sent $500 toward the expenses of the Society. A month later he pledged $100,000 to its work on the condition that all of the Society’s appropriations from this gift be approved by him first:

“I will contribute $100,000 to the American Baptist Education Society, payable as required for its contributions to educational work in the United States; providing such contributions are not payable faster than $10,000 during each month, beginning with March and ending with December next; and providing I am advised and endorse in advance the proposed contributions.”30 Rockefeller’s contribution at last allowed the Society to begin its major work. From the first, Rockefeller was the major financial backer of the Society itself. For example, the Society’s April 1892 financial statement reported that the Society had received “sundry contributions” from various donors of $684, while payments from Rockefeller’s various pledges totaled more than $165,000.31 Rockefeller’s pledges to the Society were used in two ways. One was as conditional pledges, or challenge grants, to entice others to contribute toward the endowments of specific colleges. The other was to promote better financial management of these institutions by paying the salaries of financial agents. Of the thirty-eight appropriations made by the Society to twenty-seven institutions between May 20, 1889 and March 3, 1892, twenty-seven were for endowments and eight went toward the salaries of financial agents, and three were for other purposes.

The first Midwestern institution to receive aid, Des Moines College in Iowa, received $1,500 for the salary of a fiscal agent on May 22, 1889, and at the next meeting was appropriated $12,500 toward an endowment of $125,000 if it raised the remainder by June 15, 1891.32 10

As Gates sought contributions from other wealthy Baptists, he delineated the Society’s policies and emphasized its interest in maximizing local support and promoting sound, efficient management. “The aim of the Society is not to seek from its treasury to endow our schools,” he reported as part of one such solicitation in November 1889, “but to give such aid, at such time, in such amounts, and under such conditions as shall develop the largest possible local aid to institutions to which we give.” Thus, the Society had used $50,000 of Rockefeller’s pledge as leverage to bring an additional $290,000 to the coffers of various institutions. Moreover, he reported, “we discourage debt by refusing to assist institutions who incur debt to pay their debts, and by making local payment of any debts an invariable condition of any aid from us.”

One of the conditions on the endowment grant to Des Moines was that “all the legal debts of Des Moines College shall be paid in full or covered by good subscriptions available for this purpose by Jan[uary] 1st, 1891.”33 Despite the aid of the Society and its concern for efficient fiscal management, institutions continued to face financial difficulties and often placed themselves in more difficult situations in attempts to escape the burden of debt. In 1901 the new president of Shurtleff College in Illinois asked for a modification of an earlier ABES appropriation because he had not fully realized the conditions regarding the institution’s previous debts and the degree to which this hampered fundraising.

To begin to pay off the school’s debts, the trustees in 1897 had agreed to an eight-page “iron clad arrangement” that bonded the entire property of the college and the income of its endowment funds and appointed a special treasurer to control the trust funds and systematically retire the $26,000 debt over the next fifteen years. Founded in 1827, Shurtleff College was one of the oldest Baptist colleges in the Midwest, yet its financial footing was still slippery after 70 years.34 Des Moines College offers a similar example. As one of the few Midwestern Baptist colleges located in a city of substantial size, the school was one to which Gates and the ABES devoted considerable time and energy to maintain and improve. They sought to make it, rather than rival schools at Pella and Burlington, the favored institution of the state’s Baptists, but this proved difficult. The Des Moines school was founded as the University of Des Moines and incorporated in November 1864 by the Rev. Luther Stone, Rev. J.F. Childs, and the Rev. J.A. Nash. It opened with a single department for women, under the direction of Josephine A. Cutter, 11 in 1865, but soon became coeducational. Its work was mostly that of a preparatory school until 1874, when it began to offer college classes.

During the 1875-76 school year, the university pledged to raise a $250,000 endowment and to spend $100,000 for a new building as part of the denomination’s Centennial Education Movement, but this campaign met with little success. In 1885 the Prospect Park Land Company lured the school to a new location, promising that if the school operated as a “‘College of standard grade’ for a period of years” it would receive title to the campus and several outlying lots. But the land speculators soon decided that the school was not up to standard and claimed that it had forfeited its option on the campus and lots. The college sued and in the Iowa Supreme Court won title to both the campus and lots. But by 1896 the school was finding it difficult to meet its budget and to maintain its standing as an affiliate college of the University of Chicago. Gates was concerned about its future. Acknowledging that the school was not up to college work, he offered Rockefeller little reason for hope. “I know of only one reason why you should take up Des Moines in an exceptional way,” Gates reported to Rockefeller, “and that is that of all these colleges there are none so well attended and at the same time so inadequately endowed, and with so little promise of local funds and final permanence.”35 By 1900 the school was $30,000 in debt, and that spring Morehouse reported to Rockefeller that “the crisis in our Educational history in Iowa has been reached. Unless Des Moines College can have speedy relief the indications are that it will be obliged to suspend, and its property pass into the hands of its creditors.” The rivalry between the schools at Pella and Des Moines for the role as the Baptist college in Iowa remained intense, and the denominational leaders had arranged a compromise by which a pledge from the Education Society would go to the state educational society and be split between both schools. This was an unusual request, one which Rockefeller refused. He preferred to have all of his support concentrated on the Des Moines school, following the ABES tenet of promoting one strong college in each state; and he pledged $25,000 conditioned upon the college raising an additional $50,750 by January 1, 1902, which they did.36 Des Moines College received more than $28,000 from Rockefeller in the 1890s and an additional $24,250 between 1902 and 1914, the second largest sum received by any school during this period. Still, the college’s problems persisted, and the school apparently went out of business on the eve of the depression in 1929.37 Its failure was certainly ironic: according to 12

Gates’s reasoning in 1888, the well-situated college should have flourished under the influence and light spread by the development of the University of Chicago; instead, it failed, while other Baptist schools in smaller towns — Shurtleff College, for example — continued. Moreover, it received more from the ABES than almost any other college — Chicago and Spelman being special cases — but it could not overcome the split allegiances of Iowa Baptists and establish itself as the most significant Baptist college in the state. The ultimate effectiveness of the American Baptist Education Society, then, was limited.

Clearly it helped put some schools on more secure footing, but this may have been as much the result of its assistance with fiscal administration and effective planning than with its actual payments. Indeed, there are signs that the Society was not as effective as Rockefeller had hoped.

“When I told him the other day the amount of cash on his pledges we had actually called for, by fulfillment of terms,” Gates reported to one ABES board member in March 1891, “he was astonished at the smallness of the sum.”38 The size of Rockefeller’s gifts alone was not sufficient to sustain any particular institution, except in the special cases of Chicago and Spelman, to which he devoted large sums.

If the results of the Society’s work were not entirely successful for specific schools, its impact on Rockefeller’s philanthropy was clear and significant. Through the ABES Rockefeller met and came to trust Frederick Gates, and in March of 1891 he asked Gates to move to New York to help him gain control over the flood of charitable requests and organize his philanthropy to make it more efficient. Moreover, the ABES example gave both Rockefeller and Gates experience with large-scale educational philanthropy, and the lessons they learned there proved important with their next big enterprise in this area, the General Education Board. The ABES had been built on faith — faith that Rockefeller money would attract more money and naturally help the institution grow; the General Education Board was built on analysis and investigation. With more money, a larger staff of professionals, and a more clearly defined mission, the General Education Board provided grants to promising institutions deemed worthy of support.39 The GEB kept in much closer contact with specific institutions and kept particularly close watch on finances.

The ability to investigate conditions, analyze problems, and recommend and fund specific solutions set the GEB apart from the ABES, and distinguished all subsequent philanthropic corporations established by Rockefeller. 13

See especially his first three ledgers, A, B, and C, in the JDR Papers at the Rockefeller Archive Center. The ledgers enable the researcher to trace easily Rockefeller’s giving from about 1855 until 1871 (see, for example, Ledger B, pp. 91-93, and 130-131). In 1871 his list of donations become fragmented and more difficult to follow, as his donation list came to include cross references to his office ledger, to “Mrs. Rockefeller’s House Account,” and “Expense Book at Home” (see Ledger B, pp. 201-202). By 1878 it is again fairly easy to follow his donations. While these ledgers and, beginning in late 1882, the pledge books offer researchers a chronological view of the growth and 14 expansion of Rockefeller’s charitable giving, the Charities Index cards in the JDR Papers, Financial Material series, provide a record of Rockefeller contributions to specific individuals and institutions from approximately 1879 into the early 1900s, listing dates, amounts, and the person through whom institutional gifts were given. These cards also serve as a valuable index to his philanthropic correspondence for three years. 4. F.W. Corliss to John D.

Although Rockefeller made these early and significant pledges toward black education, and would continue to do so, he seems not to have been entirely confident or comfortable in the field. His charity in this area was one to which he gave considerable thought in the years to come. In the fall of 1888, for example, Morehouse was planning a special meeting of the ABHMS to commemorate its twenty-five years of work among blacks. He asked Rockefeller to attend the meeting, or, if he was unable, to send a message. “We have a great problem in their education,” Rockefeller replied. “I am thankful to have had some little part in it and want to further pursue the study of the question with a view to understand better my responsibility in the case. Kindly assure the colored people of my sympathy for, and interest in them and tell them, I hope they will in addition to securing knowledge from books, strive to learn to do all kinds of work, and better than any other class of men.” In 1891 he asked his new philanthropic advisor, Frederick Gates, to consider the problem of black education. “I am ‘smoking my pipe’ right along on this colored education matter,” Gates reported, “but thus far only with this result, that before making any suggestions regarding either Richmond Theo[logical] Sem[inary] or the general colored work I must ask plenty of time. These questions have I find a good many side[s], not all of them easily come at.” See Morehouse to Rockefeller, August 18, 1888, JDR Papers, Office Correspondence, box 28, folder 216; Rockefeller to Morehouse, August 25, 1888, JDR Letterbooks, vol. 17, p . 128; and Gates to Rockefeller, May 30, 1891, in the copies of Gates correspondence as secretary of the American Baptist Education Society, Frederick T. Gates Papers, box 4, folder 80, Rockefeller Archive Center. As is implicit in James D. Anderson’s study, The Education of Blacks in the South, 1860-1935 (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 1988), Rockefeller’s philanthropy for black education spanned both its religious missionary phase and its industrial education phase. The whole question of Rockefeller’s attitude toward black education deserves further study, especially in the decades of the 1880s and the 1890s, as does his changing relationship with Henry Morehouse. This preliminary evidence suggests that Morehouse played a crucial role in channeling Rockefeller’s giving in this direction, but that while Rockefeller may have understood the 16 religious rationale, he was troubled by its social implications and was himself an early proponent of industrial education. Indeed, Morehouse and his approach to black education gradually lost favor with Rockefeller as the influence of Gates and other advisors increased. James Anderson describes Morehouse as one of “the missionary vanguard” in black education, “a powerful vanguard that stood clearly and unswervingly for black higher education and for the development of advanced technical schools to prepare blacks for executive and administrative posts.” The Atlanta Baptist College was later renamed Morehouse College in his honor.

THE MODERN ROCKEFELLERS IN THE 21ST CENTURY

THE ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION www.rockfound.org

JAY ROCKEFELLER http://rockefeller.senate.gov/ http://www.rockfound.org/iandr/Globalization

GLOBALIZATION

The mobility of information, labor, and capital, with rapidly accelerating advances in knowledge and technology, tends to favor some parts of the world far more than others. If these driving forces of the new global economy do not come to bestow more genuinely global benefits, the division between the worlds haves and have-nots will deepen. Concentrated poverty, illness, and anger will deepen along with them.

For the benefits of globalization to reach the worlds poorest and most isolated societies, those societies will need wider entry into emerging product and labor markets, access to innovation and technological advancement, full participation in artistic and scholarly exchange, and active membership in the public forums where policy in all these areas is developed.

The success of globalization is crucial not only to international prosperity but to advancing international peace, equity, and cooperation. The odds of reaping those benefits will ultimately depend, at least in part, on how global the mechanisms of globalization actually become.

EDUCATION

They expect schools to emphasize reading, writing and arithmetic, and they hope that an education will help instill good character and sufficient preparation for productive working lives. These parents understand that with an adequate education, doors of opportunity and progress both for the individual and the community begin to open.

And while most everyone would agree that an adequate education is key to a successful future, rarely do administrators, policy makers or educators agree on how to achieve it. In the United States the factors that may conspire to deny a student a decent education range from inadequate funding to a lack of qualified teachers.

In Africa, similar impediments prevent many children from acquiring even basic literacy and numeracy. Girls especially are often denied basic education due to traditional social norms. Yet, of all the factors that determine a newborn childs chances of survival and later development, nutrition and health, among the most powerful is the education of that childs mother.

At the other end of the spectrum, many of Africas universities are better equipped today to produce the educated leadership that their democracies and economies require to break out of the cycles of poverty and instability. But for students to get there, they will need more and better opportunities for primary and secondary education.

HOUSING

And in the United States, the availability of various forms of housing must reflect the needs and financial resource of a diverse population.

Homeownership, at one end of the housing continuum, has for generations symbolized entry into the middle class and achievement of a vital part of the American dream. And at its most stark, homelessness, and chronic homelessness in particular, is one of the most visible and seemingly intractable symbols of poverty and marginalization found anywhere. While personal circumstances and economic cycles push millions of Americans in and out of temporary homelessness, approximately 200,000 to 250,000 people with mental and physical health problems are chronically homeless, living in mostly urban areas often beyond the reach of many social service providers.

The challenge of finding a safe, affordable place to live is not necessarily a question of having a job, as it once was. In three-quarters of all U.S. metropolitan areas, two full-time workers earning minimum wage do not earn enough to afford the median price of a two bedroom apartment.

HEALTH

Today it is less than one in 20. Tremendous advances in medicine over the past five decades have allowed not just children, but all humankind, to live longer, healthier lives. But these gains have not been evenly distributed. Poor peoplein both poor and rich countriesare sicker and die younger.

Diseases that have either been eliminated or managed through medical treatments in more prosperous countries still menace poor countries. For example, more than two-thirds of the 1.75 million annual deaths from tuberculosis occur in Africa and Southeast Asia. And while sub-Saharan Africa accounts for just 10 percent of the worlds population, it is home to 60 percent of people living with HIV/AIDS. Of the more than 1 million people killed by malaria each year, 90 percent come from Africa and the majority are children.

Drug companies, by themselves, do not have an incentive to develop new medicines for people who desperately need them but cannot afford them. And even if improved and affordable drugs were soon available, Africa does not train or retain enough health care workers to deliver them. With few health care options, education systems have been devastated as teachers become ill and healthy students often must leave school to care for their siblings when one or both parents becomes ill or dies. Women and men, farmers and civil servantsall in their most productive yearsare dying, eroding the families and societies left in their wake.

GRANTS

The Foundation provides grants to institutions and individuals seeking to improve the lives of poor people with a focus on the issues and region where we work.

The Foundation works globally but provides the majority of its grants to organizations whose work is focused in Southern and Eastern Africa, Southeast Asia and North America through programs which address agriculture, health, employment, housing, education, arts and culture and global policy.

The Foundation also operates special programs, including a conference and study program at its Bellagio Center, the Program Venture Experiment and the Philanthropy Workshop.

As a matter of policy, the Foundation does not give or lend money for personal aid to individuals or, except in rare cases, fund endowments or contribute to building and operating funds.

JAY ROCKEFELLER 2005 http://rockefeller.senate.gov/about_jay/biography.htm

Biography

Senator Jay Rockefeller has proudly served the people of for almost 40 years. In 1964, Rockefeller first came to West Virginia as a 27-year-old VISTA volunteer serving in the small mining community of Emmons. West Virginia has been his home ever since. Working with the residents of Emmons to improve the community through projects such as building a community center and library, constructing a park, and lobbying the county school board to put a bus stop in Emmons, changed Jay Rockefeller’s life forever.

Many of the lessons that Rockefeller learned in Emmons have shaped his public service career. Rockefeller has devoted his life in government - first as Governor for eight years and Senator for the past 18 - to securing the best jobs and opportunities for West Virginia workers and their children. He served as Governor during some of the state's darkest years, when manufacturing plants and coal mines were closing as the national recession of the early 1980s hit West Virginia particularly hard. Those experiences taught Rockefeller the need to strengthen existing industries, to diversify the state's economy, and to look beyond its borders for investment opportunities. By working aggressively, taking a long-term view and emphasizing the loyalty and work ethic of our state's workers, Rockefeller has attracted national and international companies to the Mountain State.

As a champion for economic development, Rockefeller worked for 15 years to attract Toyota Motor Manufacturing to West Virginia. His patience and determination with Toyota paid off in 1996, when the company announced its plans to build its newest engine plant in Buffalo, Putnam County. Toyota initially invested $400 million in the factory, and employed 300 people, however, in 1998, and again in 2001, Toyota expanded, bringing the total investment to $1 billion and creating 1,000 jobs.

As part of his economic strategy, Rockefeller in 1995, 1997, 1999, and 2001 led Project Harvest trade missions, introducing West Virginia businesses to Japan and Taiwan, opening markets for West Virginia products. He continues to play an instrumental role in attracting investment in and jobs for West Virginia. In addition to Toyota, Rockefeller successfully brought international companies Wheeling-Nisshin Steel to the northern panhandle, NGK Sparkplugs to Pocatalico, Sino Swearingen Aircraft to Martinsburg, Tiger Aircraft to the eastern panhandle, KS of West Virginia to Jackson County, and Okuno to Wayne County. All together, these companies will have brought more than 2200 jobs to West Virginia.

Rockefeller has applied the same dogged determination to his passion to improve health care. This includes advocating comprehensive health care reform, fighting to reduce the number of uninsured kids and working families, protecting seniors and veterans’ health care, and fighting for the promised health benefits of retired coal miners. In 1992, he won an historic fight to protect health care benefits for retired coal miners, calling the victory the proudest moment of his career. He has continued his commitment to coal miners’ health by working to pass law in 1996 that prohibits companies from denying insurance coverage based on pre-existing conditions, and in 2001 by securing a three-year deal to prevent cuts in miners’ health benefits.

Rockefeller is nationally known as one of the strongest advocates for health care reform. In the late 1980s, when he served as Chairman of the Pepper Commission (the Bipartisan Commission on Comprehensive Health Care) he authored historic legislation reforming the way physicians are paid under Medicare. The next year, Congress approved his legislation expanding Medicaid to cover home and community health care services and protecting senior citizens from excessive charges. In 1997, he co-authored legislation creating the Children's Health Insurance Program which has provided health care coverage to 22,000 children in working families in West Virginia, and over 5 million children nationally.

And, finally, Rockefeller is known for championing initiatives to strengthen families and children. In 1996, Rockefeller joined with Senator Olympia Snowe (R-ME) to sponsor the Snowe-Rockefeller Amendment to the Telecommunications Act of 1996, helping every school and library in America to connect to the Internet. This bill, known as the E-rate, reduces the gap between the education-technology "haves" and the "have-nots," giving students in poor or rural areas access to educational opportunities. Additionally, his work as Chairman of the National Commission on Children resulted in bipartisan support for a comprehensive children's agenda; it has become the benchmark by which children's education, welfare and health care legislation are measured. Three of the Commission's centerpiece recommendations have since been enacted into law: expanding the Earned Income Tax Credit for working, low-income families; increasing the minimum wage; and creating the child tax credit for working families.

In the , Senator Rockefeller is the Vice-chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. He also serves as Ranking Member of the Health Care subcommittee on Finance, and as Ranking Member of the Aviation Subcommittee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee. Rockefeller also serves on the Senate Committee on Veterans' Affairs.

Rockefeller was born on June 18, 1937. He graduated from Harvard University in 1961 with a B.A. in Far Eastern Languages and History, after having spent three years studying Japanese at International Christian University in Tokyo.

After college, Rockefeller worked for the Peace Corps in Washington, DC where he served as the operations director for their largest overseas program in the Philippines. He continued his public service in 1964-65 as a VISTA volunteer. He was then elected to the West Virginia House of Delegates in 1966, and to the office of West Virginia Secretary of State in 1968. Following his term as Secretary of State, he served as President of West Virginia Wesleyan College from 1973 to 1976.

The people of West Virginia then elected him to be Governor in 1976 and re-elected him in 1980. In 1984, he was elected to the United States Senate, and re-elected in 1990, 1996 and 2002.

Since 1967, Rockefeller has been married to Sharon Percy with whom he has four children: John, Valerie, Charles, and Justin. He is also the proud grandfather of Laura Chandler Rockefeller and Sophia Percy Rockefeller, daughters to his son John. The Rockefellers reside in Charleston, West Virginia.

Senators Vent on Oil Company Executives http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,175023,00.html November 10, 2005

WASHINGTON — The chiefs of five major oil companies defended the industry's huge profits Wednesday at a Senate hearing where they were exhorted to explain prices and assure customers they're not being gouged.

There is a "growing suspicion that oil companies are taking unfair advantage," Sen. Pete Domenici, R-N.M., said, opening the hearing in a packed committee room.

"The oil companies owe the American people an explanation," he declared.

Lee Raymond, chairman of Exxon Mobil Corp., said he recognizes that high gasoline prices "have put a strain on Americans' household budgets" but he defended his company's huge profits, saying petroleum earnings "go up and down" from year to year.

ExxonMobil, the worlds' largest privately owned oil company, earned nearly $10 billion in the third quarter. Raymond was joined at the witness table by the chief executives of Chevron Corp., ConocoPhillips, BPAmerica Inc., and Shell Oil Company.

Together the companies earned more than $25 billion in profits in the July-September quarter as the price of crude oil hit $70 a barrel and gasoline surged to record levels after the disruptions of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

Raymond said the profits are in line with other industries when earnings are compared to the industry's enormous revenues.

But senators pressed Raymond to explain why in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina some ExxonMobil gas station operators complained the company had raised the wholesale price of its gas by 24 cents a gallon in 24 hours. Is that not price gouging? they asked.

Raymond said he could not confirm the specific price increase, but that ExxonMobil had issued a directive in response to the storm disruptions "to minimize the increase in price while at the same time recognizing if we kept the price too low we would quickly run out (of fuel) at the service stations."

"It was a tough balancing act," said Raymond, who said it was not price gouging.

Although only 28 states have price gouging laws, and they vary widely as to implementation, the head of the cautioned against enactment of a federal price gouging law. "Price gouging laws that have the effect of controlling prices likely will do more harm than good" and would be difficult to enforce, FTC Chairman Deborah Platt Majoras told the hearing held jointly by the committees of energy and commerce.

Democrats had wanted the executives to testify under oath, but Republicans rejected the idea. "If I were a witness I would demand to be put under oath," said Sen. Daniel Inouye, D-Hawaii. The soaring prices have sent shivers through a Congress worried about political fallout.

Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., made the issue personal, noting that the executives were reaping multimillion-dollar bonuses on top of multimillion-dollar salaries as "working people struggle" to pay for gasoline and face the specter of soaring home heating bills this winter. "Your sacrifice appears to be nothing," Boxer told the executives.

The head of the National Association of Manufacturers, former Michigan Gov. John Engler, criticized lawmakers for the way they handled the hearing.

"Demagoguery and demonization will not reduce energy prices or solve supply problems in the long run," he said. "Our energy supply and infrastructure have suffered from 25 years of increasingly restrictive government policies that have made it almost impossible to access and refine the resources we have. The Senate should dispense with the theatrics and get serious about Americas energy supply."

The White House said that President Bush, too, is concerned about energy prices.

"Energy prices have been too high and energy companies have realized significant increases in profits," said spokesman Scott McClellan. "It's important that the private sector be good corporate citizens and invest in the energy infrastructure and support those who are in need."

A number of Democrats, joined by a few Republicans, have called for a windfall profits tax on oil companies.

Domenici said he opposes such a move, saying "it didn't work before and probably won't work again." The government imposed taxes on oil company windfall profits in the 1970s, resulting in a drop in investment in oil development.

The executives hoped to dampen any further momentum for calls for taxing windfall oil company profits, something still viewed as a longshot but also no longer out of the question. Such a tax could inhibit investment in refineries or oil exploration and production, the industry argues.

James Mulva, chairman of ConocoPhillips, said "we are ready open our records" to dispute allegations of price gouging. ConocoPhillips earned $3.8 billion in the third quarter, an 89 percent increase over a year earlier. But he said that represents only a 7.7 percent profit margin for every dollar of sales. "We do not consider that a windfall," said Mulva.

Raymond cautioned against Congress imposing "punitive measures, hastily crafted" -- an apparent reference to windfall profits taxes -- and suggested that they would inhibit investment in domestic energy projects. Both Republicans and Democrats have urged the companies to use more of their profits to build refineries and other energy projects.

David O'Reilly, chairman of Chevron, attributed the high energy prices to tight supplies even before the Gulf hurricanes hit and said his company is "investing aggressively in the development of new energy supplies."

The oil executives said their companies spend tens of billions of dollars in investments.

Shell earned $9 billion in the third quarter, said John Hofmeister, president of Shell Oil Co., but he said over the last five years the company's investment in U.S. operations was equal to its income from U.S. sales.

The oil industry's record third-quarter profits -- at a time when motorists were reeling from unprecedentedly high gasoline costs and warned of huge heating bills this winter -- have caught the attention of both Republicans and Democrats in Congress. Some analysts predict the 29 largest oil companies will earn $96 billion this year. Senate Panels Set to Grill Oil Execs http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,174853,00.html

WASHINGTON — Washington lawmakers, citing sky's-the-limit gasoline prices and record profits that followed hurricanes in the Gulf Coast this summer, say it's time for a showdown with oil companies.

According to statistics from the American Automobile Association, the national average for gasoline on Monday was $2.38 for regular unleaded, up 38 cents from this time last year but down 68 cents from Sept. 5's record high of $3.06, just days after Hurricane Katrina.

This week, the Senate will hold its first hearing looking into the multibillion dollar profits taken after hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Members of Congress say they are gearing up to fight for plans they say will take the bite out of this year's wallet-busting gas and home energy prices.

"At the same time this money is going to come out of the pocket books — continue to come out of the bank accounts of ordinary consumers — the bank accounts of these oil companies is fatter, fatter, fatter," Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., said last week as he announced his proposal for a windfall tax on oil company profits.

On Wednesday, top executives from Exxon Mobil Corp., Chevron Corp., ConocoPhillips, BP America Inc. and Shell Oil Co. will testify before a joint hearing of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee and the Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation.

Combined, those companies reported third quarter profits of more than $32 billion, an increase of more than $11 billion over the same period last year, or about 38 percent.

"The bottom line is, is that the U.S. oil company is an easy target. It's an easy target for politicians, and when people see record profits, they don't realize it takes record investment, and I want to pat the oil industry on the back for the way that they really averted what could have been a major crisis to the U.S. economy," said Phil Flynn, vice president of Alaron Trading.

Oil industry officials say the profits as well as recently waning gasoline and oil prices, are proof that market forces work to set prices fairly. By leaving the market alone and not over-regulating, the checks and balances have been allowed to take hold.

Indeed, oil prices have dropped from the all-time high of $70 per barrel on Aug. 29, the day Katrina hit, down to just under $60. A year ago, a barrel of oil was roughly $50

Prominent Republicans and Democrats have come out swinging against the high profits, beginning with a controversial measure to allow drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. The provision passed the Senate by a narrow margin last week. Other legislative maneuvers are also in development.

But at least one observer said he is already suspicious of the explanations likely to be given by oil executives about the record high profits.

"They're not going to say what I like to hear. What they're going to say is, 'Hey, it's the market,'" said Mark Cooper, research director for the Consumer Federation of America. Cooper said he believes the oil market is not geared toward fair competition, but the oil executives expected to testify are unlikely to admit that. "They have not behaved in a socially responsible fashion," Cooper said.

Oil on Our Mind

With nightly news offering tips on commuting, running errands and taking vacations, gasoline prices are on every driver's mind, says AAA national spokesman Justin McNaull.

"Certainly, there's frustration for motorists," McNaull said. Based on the number of phone calls his group has been receiving recently, the automobile association reports the highest level of concern about fuel costs ever registered to them by the driving public.

Sara Banaszak, a senior economist for the American Petroleum Institute, which represents the oil industry on policy issues, said gas prices rose rapidly after Katrina because few buffers could offset the cost of bringing oil to market.

Usually, oil production facilities do not operate at full-tilt, but due to high worldwide oil demand, facilities had been operating at about 95 percent capacity, leaving only 5 percent reserve capacity. When Katrina and Rita knocked out some of the oil production centers and supply lines, no buffer could accommodate the shift in production capacity and prices were forced to go up with the shortage in supply, Banaszak said.

But Cooper said he believes the price hike was beyond just market forces.

"The oil companies are doing what capitalists do. They make as much money as they can without being put in jail," Cooper said. "They have the power over price and Katrina finally made that abundantly clear. ... They figured that's what the markets would bear."

Senators Take Action

On top of the higher price of gas, home heating oil is also expected to take a chunk out of people's wallets this winter. Though prices spiked in late August and have since trended downward, mid-Monday's prices of $1.76 per gallon were still more than 30 cents, or about 20 percent higher than the same time last year.

Last week, Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., said that the rising prices are forcing Americans to choose between eating, filling their gas tanks or heating their homes.

A number of plans have been put before both houses of Congress in an attempt to offset the rising cost of fuel. Some aim to increase fuel production facilities, others would shift more money to programs for the poor, and at least one aims to place a tax on so-called windfall profits.

The Gasoline for America's Security Act passed the House by a slim vote in October, but is now sitting lifeless in the Senate. Among its provisions, greater federal assistance would be given in opening new refineries and price gouging would be investigated. This plan is supported by the oil industry.

The Senate last week also passed a deficit reduction bill that included the ANWR drilling provision. That portion of the bill, which is strongly opposed by environmental groups, is expected to meet opposition in the House.

Other plans would increase the budget for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program — or LIHEAP — which is run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Sen. Judd Gregg, R-N.H., chairman of the Budget Committee, has sought to add $1.3 billion to the home heating program as part of the current budget process. At the same time, he is fighting a more expensive plan that would add $2.9 billion to the program.

Another plan, introduced in September by Sens. Dorgan and Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., would place a windfall tax of 50 percent on any profits earned on oil sold above $40 a barrel. The lawmakers say their bill would force oil companies to do one of two things: reinvest the value of the tax into additional refining capacity or fuel sources, or give the money back to consumers.

Banaszak said the most preferable plans are ones that either promote expansion — like the Gasoline for America's Security Act — or at least do not interfere with the market, like the LIHEAP funding proposals.

But lawmakers must be careful when designing laws that promote industry expansion because "companies should be deciding how to invest in the most efficient ways," Banaszak said.

Companies should not be forced to invest in certain industries that might not be the most efficient or cost-effective. For instance, it might be much more expensive to invest in domestic oil drilling than in drilling abroad.

She also questioned the logic of the Dorgan-Dodd plan, saying the $40 per barrel price set as the tipping point in the bill doesn't represent what the lawmakers say it does. Whereas the lawmakers say the price represents the point after which oil companies receive pure profit, Banaszak said many oil production companies must buy oil before processing it, which also cuts into their profit margins.

Banaszak added that the plan would discourage investment, similar to a 1980s windfall profit tax. Congressional research shows that 1.6 billion fewer barrels of oil were produced as a direct result of the 1980s tax, she said.

But Cooper countered that oil industry doesn't behave in a basic competitive model in which competition and regulation stop price abuse.

"In the oil industry, we have neither," he said. He suggested a series of other proposals, including a strategic refining reserve that would be blocked off from the rest of the oil markets except in major emergencies; a strategic reserve of gasoline versus unrefined oil reserves (a strategic home heating oil reserve does exist); a greater investment in biofuels to create more competition with crude oil industry; and investment in vehicle efficiency.

Whatever plans take shape, with 48 million auto club members, AAA's McNaull said his group will be listening closely to explanations and proposals offered by the oil companies.

"There's a real desire to hear what they have to say," he said.

DEATH IN THE AIR BY DR. LEONARD G. HOROWITZ, D.M.D., M.A., M.P.H. AUTHOR OF THE NATIONAL BESTSELLER: “EMERGING VIRUSES: AIDS & EBOLA—Nature, Accident or Intentional?

CHEVRON

Chevron Corporation started business in Los Angeles in 1879 as the Pacific Coast Oil Company. In 1900, the thriving company was acquired by John D. Rockefeller’s Standard Oil Trust. The breakup of the trust in 1911 lead to the formation of the Standard Oil Company of California. In the 1920s and 1930s, the company began investing in international exploration and made the first major discoveries in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.

In 1936, in partnership with Texaco, it formed Caltex, bringing in new markets in Asia, Africa, and Europe. After World War II, continued expansion led to major discoveries in Indonesia, Australia, the U.K. North Sea and the Gulf of Mexico.

In 1984, the company nearly doubled its size by acquiring Gulf Oil Corporation in what then was the largest corporate merger in U.S. history. That same year, Standard also changed its name to Chevron, the well-known brand name of many of its products. In 1993, Chevron achieved another milestone when it joined the Republic of Kazakhstan in the largest joint venture between a Western company and a member of the former Soviet Union. A new company, Tengizchevroil, was formed to develop the Tengiz oil field, the largest discovery in the past 30 years.

This sample of Chevron propaganda to relay the gargantuan dimension of only this small portion of the Rockefeller’s petrochemical/pharmaceutical holdings. The Rockefeller family is like a central cog in the globalists’ wheel of fortune. They not only played a crucial role in the early laboratory developments surrounding the West Nile Virus, and many other contemporary pathogens and plagues, but through their global entities and corporate networks, the Rockefellers have routinely practiced Machiavellian eco- genocide. Creating such problems and solutions to justify and effect non-lethal military/public health operations, that coincidentally serve lucrative depopulation functions, their scientific, “service” to humanity is destined to effect a “New World Order” with far fewer more easily controlled people.

EBOLA

Ebola, the ideal biological weapon that kills nine-out-of-ten humans within three weeks of infection, emerged first in three European vaccine production laboratories, virtually simultaneously, in 1967. Then named the “Marburg Virus” (after the Marburg, Germany, address of the Paul Ehrlich Institute, wherein one of the first outbreaks took place), consensus held that this virus arrived in Europe in a shipment of nearly 500 AFRICAN MONKEYS. LITTON BIONETICS was the infamous monkey supplier.

Kitum Cave, near the West Nile region of Central Africa, according to suppressed National Cancer Institute (NCI) documents, was Preston’s metaphor for Litton Bionetics research lab. Here, in the West Nile Valley region of Uganda, currently the heart of the African AIDS belt, Bionetics collaborated, from the early 1960s through 1978, with the International Agency for Research in Cancer (IARC). The IARC was funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health, but centered in France! This is an early indication of the global nature of biomedical research and the biological weapons industry. Near the actual Kitum Cave, in Northwest Uganda, Litton Bionetics and NCI scientists experimented on non-human primates and African villagers according to eyewitness testimony.

Ebola virus suddenly re-emerged inexplicably in this same area of northwest Uganda. A spider’s web of connections best describes the suspicious outbreaks of AIDS in New York and Ebola in Uganda, the alleged WNV outbreak in New York, Rockefeller links to the cancer industry directed from New York, and Rockefeller ties to the manufacture of carcinogens, particularly malathion by American Cynamid, and Anvil, Malathion’s replacement, by Rockefeller’s own Chevron Coporation. American Cyanamid is a huge subsidiary of American Home Products Corporation, as well as owner of Lederie Labs. Dr. James B. Fisk, director of American Cyanamid, Dow Corning, and Rockefeller’s Chase Manhattan Bank, was also, during the last half of the twentieth century, on the Board of Overseers of the Sloan-Kettering Memorial Cancer Center (SKMCC) in New York City.

The Rockefeller Standard Oil business managers and legal directors, John Foster and , had initiated the partnership between the Rockefeller family and Germany’s leading industrial organization – the international chemical and pharmaceutical cartel, I.G. Farben. These partnerships began before, and extended beyond, World War II. Allen Dulles was director of America Intelligence at that time. He established the CIA largely as a cover organization for THIRD REICH INTELLIGENCE groups led by Reinhard Gehlan – the Gehlan Org, and Kurt Merk – The Merk Network.

PROJECT PAPERCLIP, the Nazi exfiltration program that helped approximately 2,000 scientists and techinicians, Hitler’s finest, come to America, was directed by these Rockefeller front men along with General Alexander Bolling and Henry Kissinger. Among Paperclip’s most valuable draftees was Erich Traub—Hitler’s top biological weapons developer and world-class cancer virologist. Dr. Traub, and his assistant, went to work for the U.S. Navy beginning in 1948.

At the end of WWII, I.G. Farben, hatched largely through the combined efforts and assest of Co., BASF, Hoechst, Meister Lucius, Agfa, was broken up into a variety of chemical and pharmaceutical companies that dominate these industries today. These Farben-Rockefeller enterprises, included Sterling Drug and American Home Products (AHP), the parent company of AMERICAN CYANAMID.

THE ORIGIN OF THE CANCER INDUSTRY AND MODERN MEDICINE

In “MURDER BY INJECTION: The Story of the Medical Conspiracy Against America, author Eustace Mullins detailed numerous financial and administrative links between Rockefeller-directed holdings and cancer industry kingpins ALBERT LASKER and ELMER BOBST. Mullins, well known for his staunch anti-globalist and early anti- Semitic writings, factually described Albert Lasker and his wife Mary, who numerous other authors credited for marketing into existence, mostly for the benefit of the Rockefeller family, the entire cancer and related American pharmaceutical industries. Elmer Bobst, nicknamed “THE VITAMIN KING,” was Lasker’s partner in establishing the AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY in the early 1940s. Bobst later became President of other Rockefeller directed holdings including Hoffman LaRoche and Warner-Lambert. Bobst is further credited for having brought Richard Nixon to power, and because of his wealth and political influence, persuaded Nixon to wage his failed “WAR ON CANCER.” It was during this “war” that cancer viruses, many functionally and descriptively identical to the human immunodeficiency virusts (HIVs) associated with AIDS, were produced, cultured, and tested by BIONETICS under a contract. FROM HERE, as increasing numbers of authorities now admit, many of these man-made viruses were transmitted to humanity through contaminated vaccines. Some claim these contaminations were intended to destroy undesirable populations.

SIDE NOTE: HOROWITZ’S OTHER BOOK: EMERGING VIRUSES: AIDS & EBOLA—Nature, Accident or Intentional?

George Herbert Walker Bush, at the time Elmer Bobst was coaching and bankrolling Richard Nixon’s successful election bid, stood beside his grandfather’s best friend, General William Draper III, to warn congressional legislators about the imminent national security threat posed by burgeoning Third World populations. Black Africans were particularly troublesome they said, as did George’s grandfather, PRESCOTT, during the 1920s. PRESCOTT, at that time, had joined financial forces with John D. Rockefeller, the Draper family, and the Royal Family of England, to fund the initial research that led to the first racial hygiene programs. It was first called, “EUGENICS”. Later, it was renamed “population control”, as actively practiced in “FAMILY PLANNING”.

Today, EUGENICS is better known as: THE HUMAN GENOME PROJECT which is still heavily funded by the Rockefeller and Sloan Foundations, as is COLD SPRING HARBOR LABS wherein much of this research continues in New York.

The Bush and Draper population concerns prompted Henry Kissinger to begin writing the infamous NATIONAL SECURITY SPECIAL [i.e., Secret] Memorandum 200: Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for U.S. Security and Overseas Interests. Submitted before he left his NSA advisor post in 1974, and declassified December 31, 1980, the document called for massive Third World depopulation. As NSSM 200 was being prepared, George H.W. Bush was appointed to serve as CIA director.

Following Henry Kissinger’s loss of his NSA post, the Rockefeller-directed depopulation agenda gained added force during the Carter administration with as NSA chief. According to two previous CIA directors—Richard Helms and William Colby—as published in U.S. Congressional Records, Dr. Kissinger oversaw the development of biological weapons for covert operations including depopulation programs.

Dr. Kissinger was a leading foreign policy advisor for American Presidents, as well as on the Board of Advisors of the Merck pharmaceutical company—another firm largely supported and directed by Rockefeller/Sloan Foundation investments, and in days past, by I.G. Farben officials.

The President of Merck, George W. Merck, was America’s biological weapons industry director for most of the Cold War. According to CBS News correspondent Paul Manning, who credited Allen Dulles for much of his information, the lion’s share of the Nazi war chest, that is, the working capital of the I.G. Farben-Rockefeller chemical-pharmaceutical cartel, went largely to George Merck’s company. At that time, along with Nazi pilfered gold, Allen Dulles helped to export leading Nazi officers and scientists through “rat lines” from Germany to other nations. The intelligence apparatus used the AMERICAN RED CROSS (ARC), and false ARC identifications, as one vehicle for transporting many war criminals. Conveniently, the Rockefeller family largely controlled the ARC as well as the CIA.

LINKS TO THE WEST NILE VIRUS

Beginning in the 1920s the fields of cancer, virology, and “public health” were, for all practical purposes, entirely funded by the Rockefeller family in cooperation with Alfred P. Sloan, chief benefactors and directors of the later developed SKMCC. By 1930, John D. Rockefeller’s Standard Oil Company had “married” the I.G. Farben chemical/pharmaceutical cartel. Farben’s directors—the cream of the SS and the Third Reich—decided that Jewish people would best serve as slave labor in their corporate concentration camps. Hitler’s “racial hygiene program,” historic documents showed, evolved from the “public health” and “scientific eugenics” efforts of the Rockefeller family, the British Royal Family, and other powerful political notables including Prescott Bush—George H.W. Bush’s grandfather. It was the Rockefeller money that primarily built THE KAISER WILHELM INSTITUTE FOR EUGENICS, Anthropology and Human Heredity in pre-, forerunner to today’s Cold Spring Harbor Labs’ operation. Then, the Rockefellers instilled ERNST RUDIN as the institute’s director. He later became Hitler’s chief racial hygienist. Margaret Sanger, the grand matriarch of “FAMILY PLANNING”, and “WORLD POPULATION CONTROL”, worked vigorously, at that time, to herald the necessary elimination of “dysgenic” people— mainly Blacks and the mentally retarded.

ERICH TRAUB, a world class cancer virologist, became Hitler’s biological weapons chief, and following World War II was paid $65,000 annually, plus benefits, to work for the Navy’s Biological Research Laboratory (NBRL) collaborating largely with the University of California at Berkeley and Irvine. Erich Traub apparently received Rockefeller support, before as well as after WWII. Erich Traub’s early work was likely being funded by the Rockefeller-Sloan cancer directorship that first “discovered” the WNV in 1937, as possibly part of a biological weapons and/or eugenics program on- going at that time in Uganda.

I.G. FARBEN BUILDING IN , GERMANY were the producers of early war gases and pesticides. The I.G. Farben-Rockefeller chemical and pharmaceutical cartel complex in Germany remained protected from allied bombings during WWII to become the CIA’s headquarters following the war. Germany’s leading industrial organization, whose subsidiaries produced the earliest pesticides, drugs, and war gases. It largely dictated economic and industrial policies to Hitler and his financial minister Martin Bormann. The cartel arrangement between Rockefeller’s Standard Oil Company and Farben included a non-competitive sharing of global revenues from the petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries.

In EMERGING VIRUSES, by Leonard Horowitz, he traced the development of viruses, functionally and descriptively identical to HIV and EBOLA, to the West Nile region of Northwest Uganda. There, military-medical operations and vaccine experiments were ongoing involving the biological weapons contractor, LITTON BIONETICS. Under National Institutes of Health (NIH) contracts, BIONETICS shipped contaminated monkeys and chimpanzees to New York City, where Dr. Maurice Hilleman received them to develop Merck pharmaceutical company vaccines.

In his book: HEALING CODES FOR THE BIOLOGICAL APOCALYPSE, Leonard Horowitz and Dr. Joseph Puleo exposed the passage of ancient sacred knowledge involving physics, mathematics, genetics, language, music, spirituality, and healing, and the ARCANA’S current use by global leaders of the international chemical/pharmaceutical cartel, in their efforts to survey, manipulate, control, enslave and even kill world populations. The HUMAN GENOME PROJECT, they proclaimed, would significantly help promote health in the 21st Century. What they did not tell is that the Rockefeller-linked Cold Spring Harbor Labs, home to the Human Genome Project, and original eugenics research that Hitler later termed “racial hygiene” was also deeply invested in HAARP—the electro-magnetic transmission in Alaska, New York, and elsewhere, that has aimed frequency generators to control weather and apparently populations as well.

Jan VAN HELSING’S “Secret Societies and Their Power in the 20th Century.”

The shams of “public health” might be best explained by the substantial interest paid by the Rockefeller family to the entire field. This influence is peddled through pseudo-scientific institutions and agencies, operating both domestically and internationally that ultimately pave the study paths considered legitimate for science to pursue. This power brokering, naturally, depends heavily on “payoffs” and propaganda mechanisms, and extends globally to effect genocide beyond most people desire to imagine. As a clinician and health professional educator, Leonard Horowitz was amazed for more than a decade that people—including academicians, scientists, and health service providers—have remained subservient to this widespread Rockefeller influence. Through their foundations and allied institutions, America’s wealthiest family has asserted its direction over the fields of public health and medicine for almost a century. Meanwhile, the virtual army of health professionals—people who, mostly for the love of humanity, endured years of dehumanizing indoctrination called medical education, and paid dearly physically and financially—have remained pawns in a global sham.

It is not secret that worldwide, people have been heavily influenced, if not entirely “brainwashed” by pharmaceutical propaganda. Catherine De Angelis of the JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION stated, “It is unconscionable to advertise wares under the guise of medical education. The drug companies provide “unrestricted” grants to the marketers who hire the course faculty. But growing numbers of critics say there’s nothing unrestricted about the involvement of pharmaceutical companies.”

FOLLOW THE ROCKEFELLER MONEY RIGHT INTO PUBLIC HEALTH, EVEN KAISER PERMANENTE! FROM MASONIC SHADOW GOVERNORS TO ROCKEFELLER HIGH FINANCE

The solidification of secret society power in America began in 1776 around the time Adam Weishaupt was establishing the Order of the Bavarian Illuminati on behalf of the Rothschilds. According to VAN HELSING, the founding of the United States Of America was the result of the secret plan carried out by Freemasons beginning in the 17th Century. Freemasons had organized the American War of Independence. The U.S. Constitution was penned and signed by Freemasons. Almost a third of the United States with the pyramid and the All-Seeing Eye, the bald eagle that replaced the phoenix, the original thirteen states, stars and stripes were all adopted symbols of Freemasonry. Though they had been put in place by Weishaupt to convey Rothschild wishes, the symbolism dated back to the Masons of Ancient Egypt. The Illuminated pyramid on the American dollar bill was the design of Philip Rothschild as Ayn Rand, his lover, divulged in ATLAS SHRUGGED.

Although early American political leaders Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson heavily favored private centralized banking, in 1790 Alexander Hamilton was appointed secretary of the treasury, and reformed policy heavily favoring his silent benefactors Mayer Amschel Rothschild and his sons. A year later, Hamilton established the “FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF THE UNITED STATES. Fashioned after the “Bank of England”. The Rothschilds controlled it.

After Mayer Rothschild’s death in 1812, Nathan took control over the family fortune and opened the “Nathan Mayer Rothschild & Sons Bank” in London, Vienna, Paris, and Berlin. In America it was represented by J.P. Morgan & Co., & Co., and Kuhn Loeb & Company. During the American Civil War, the Rothschilds financed both sides of the conflict. “The reasons leading to this civil war,” VAN HELSING wrote, “were almost completely due to the actions and provocations of Rothschild agents.” One of the troublemakers, founder of the “KNIGHTS OF THE GOLDEN CIRCLE,” was George Bickley. Bickley extolled the advantages of succession from the Union by the Confederate States. On the other side, the Rothschild-J.P. Morgan and August Belmont banks financed the Union. In addition, Rothschild’s London Bank supported the North, while its Paris bank funded the South. It was a glorious business.

President Lincoln finally caught wind of the scam and withheld immense interest payments to the Rothschilds. He then petitioned Congress to print “greenbacks”—dollars over which only the Union held printing power. In response, the furious Rothschilds are said to have arranged his assassination. John Wilkes Booth murdered Lincoln on April 14, 1865. Booth was freed from jail due to the efforts of the Knights of the Golden Circle. He spent the duration of his days living comfortably in England, funded by the Rothschilds. By the early 1900s, the Masonic-linked “secret societies”, including the CFR, held a strangehold on America’s leading social, economic, and political institutions.

In 1913, American banking mogul William Averell Harriman was initiated into the Skull and Bones fraternity. During the “ROARING TWENTIES” Harriman became the chief Western financier of the Russian Government and their Ruskombank—where Max May, a Skull & Bones brother of Harriman, was vice-president of the GUARANTY TRUST COMPANY controlled by J.P. Morgan at that time included Harold Stanley and Thomas Cochran. The capital used to create the Guaranty Trust came from the Harrimans, Rockefellers, Vanderbilts, and Whitneys—all families with blood kin in the Skull & Bones.

Percy Rockefeller represented his family’s interest in the Skull & Bones as well as Guaranty Trust, which he directed from 1915 to 1930. Rothschild and Bavarian Illuminati representatives helped establish the Rockefeller’s European Standard Oil empire as well as Carnegie’s steelworks and Harriman’s railroad. The economic result of these investments is diagramed depicting the international banking community:

INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND WORLD BANK

The introduction of the “FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM” in 1913 enabled these international bankers to consolidate their American financial powers. Banking chiefs, who were largely supported by the Rothschilds, became the chairmen of the First Federal Reserve Bank Of New York. Following passage of the “FEDERAL RESERVE ACT,” WARBURG conspired with others in the U.S. Congress to illegally ratify the 16th Amendment to the Constitution after which Congress deemed it necessary to levy personal income taxes on American citizens. The legislation was required since the United States government could no longer print money to finance its operations due to the controlling forces of the international banking cartel. OPPOSITION TO THESE FISCAL POLICIES CAME, BUT WAS GROSSLY INADEQUATE TO QUELL THE CHANGING TIDE. U.S. Congressman Louis McFadden expressed sentiments of too few when he decried, “We have in this country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank, hereinafter called the FED. They are not government institutions. They are private monopolies which prey upon the people of these United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers.”

WITH NO APOLOGIES: The Personal And Political Memoirs of U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater expressed the insider’s view that THE ROUND TABLE’S cover organization, THE CFR, tightly controlled the American political scene with the Rockefellers at the helm. “I believe the Council On Foreign Relations and its ancillary elitist groups are indifferent to communism. They have NO IDEOLOGICAL ANCHORS. In their pursuit of a NEW WORLD ORDER they are prepared to deal without prejudice with a communist state, a socialist state, a democratic state, monarchy, oligarchy—it’s all the same to them.”

Rear Admiral Chester Ward of the U.S. Navy, a sixteen-year veteran of the CFR warned, “The most powerful clique in these elitist groups have one objective in common —they want to bring about the surrender of the sovereignty and the national independence of the United States.” Senator Goldwater added, “Their rationale rests exclusively on materialism. When a new president comes on board, there is a great turnover in personnel but no change in policy. For instance during the Nixon years of Henry Kissinger, CFR member and Nelson Rockefeller’s protégé, was in charge of foreign policy. When Jimmy Carter was elected, Kissinger was replaced with Zbigniew Brzezinski, CFR member and David Rockefeller’s protégé.

On February 18, 1991, President George H.W. Bush, past CIA director, former CFR chief, and a member of the Skull & Bones, Committee of 300 and its offshoot, The Bilderbergers, addressed the American people during his State of the Union Address. “IT IS BIG, a New World Order, where diverse nations are drawn together in common cause…Only the United States has both the moral standing and the means to back it up.”

PIONEERING THE FIELDS OF CANCER, NEUROTOXICITY, AND EUGENICS

Following the Rothschilds’ early financial backing, the Rockefellers exercised significant control over American banking, medicine, and public health. This control was with the help of the foundations established to promote the Committee of 300’s New World Order objectives. Further implicating the Rockefeller/Farben military—medical influence in the development of the CANCER INDUSTRY, was the recognition that MUSTARD GAS— the ethylene derived nerve gas widely used during WWI responsible for killing millions —was what the SLOAN-KETTERING researchers used to develop the FIRST CANCER CHEMOTHERAPEUTIC AGENT. Likewise, the petro-chemical industrialists managed by the Rockefeller/Farben cartel produced the earliest nerve gases. Author Joseph Borkin made this association very clear in The Crime and Punishment of I.G. Farben: The Unholy Alliance Between Hitler and the Great Chemical Combine. TABUN, “a nerve gas so deadly that a drop on the skin killed a victim in minutes…as well as SARIN, a companion nerve gas, had been discovered during I.G. research and development on pesticides…” It became “one of Germany’s most closely guarded military secrets,” intimately shared by ROCKEFELLER STANDARD OIL officials BEFORE WWII. Referred to by the code name “N-STOFF”, Tabum was publicized as early as 1902 in the United States. Although most historians reported that the Germans had sole access to the technology needed to develop these nerve gases, the Rockefeller family and their Standard Oil Company were undoubtedly privy to these developments, and profited greatly, as I.G. Farben’s partner, by their trade. As author G. Edward Griffin reported in WORLD WITHOUT CANCER, the Rockefeller’s Chase Manhattan Bank had been “the principal stock registrar for FARBEN-ROCKEFELLER enterprises such as Sterling Drug, Olin Corporation, American Home Products, and General Aniline and Film. When Farben’s vast holdings were finally sold in 1962, the Rockefeller group was the dominant force in carrying out the transaction. Rockefeller entry with I.G Farben into the pharmaceutical field was concealed, Ed Griffin reported, for at least two reasons: “One, is the fact that, for many years before World War II, Standard Oil had a continuing cartel agreement not to enter into the broad field of chemicals except as a partner with I.G. Farben which, in turn, agreed not to compete in oil. The other is that, because of the unpopularity of Farben” in America, and “its need to camouflage its American holdings, Standard had concealed even its partnership interest in chemical firms behind a maze of false fronts and dummy accounts.” Griffin further detailed the Rockefeller group’s “pyramid of power” through which international corporate control was exercised. The Rockefellers placed influential managers atop a vast number of companies. Included here was LITTON INDUSTRIES —THE PARENT COMPANY TO LITTON BIONETICS.

THE ROCKEFELLERS AND EUGENICS

Prior to WWII, underlying the close working relationship “between German and American Governments,” according to German scholar Stephan Kuhl in The Nazi Connection: Eugenics, American Racism and German National Socialism, “was the extensive financial support of American foundations for the establishment of eugenic research in Germany. The MAIN SUPPORTER WAS THE ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION IN NEW YORK.” According to Kuhl, the Rockefellers “financed the research of German racial hygienist Agnes Bluhm on heredity and alcoholism in early 1920.” By early 1927, “The Foundation began supporting other German eugenicists, including Hermann Poll, Alfred Grotjahn, and Hans Nactsheim. The Rockefeller Foundation played the central role in establishing and sponsoring major eugenic institutes in Germany, including KAISER WILHELM INSTITUTE FOR PSYCHIATRY and THE KAISER WILHELM INSTITUTE FOR ANTHROPOLOGY, EUGENICS, AND HUMAN HEREDITY. Kuhl, a sociologist and historian at the University of Bielefeld in Germany chronicled the Rockefeller connection to Hitler’s racial hygiene program in this way:

In 1918, Germany psychiatrist Emil Kraepelin founded the INSTITUTE OF PSYCHIATRY in Munich, which was taken over by the KAISER WILHELM SOCIETY in 1924. Ernst Rudin, later director of the Institute for Psychiatry, headed the Department of Geneaology and Demography. This department—the core of the Institute— concentrated on locating the genetic and neurological basis of traits such as criminal propensity and mental disease. In 1928, the ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION DONATED $325,000 for the construction of a new building. The funding of the Institute in Munich was a model that other American sponsors followed. Ironically, the Institute continued to be supported by the money of the Jewish philanthropist JAMES LOEB until 1940.

The actual building of the KAISER WILHELM INSTITUTE FOR ANTHROPOLOGY, EUGENICS, AND HUMAN HEREDITY in Berlin was also partially funded by money from the ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION. The Institute concentrated on a comprehensive project on racial variation as indicated by blood groups, and on twin studies, coordinated by Otmar Freiher von Verschuer. When severe financial problems threatened to close the Institute during the early years of the Depression, the Rockefeller Foundation kept it afloat…The Foundation continued to support German eugenicists even after the NATIONAL SOCIALISTS had gained control over German science.” By 1930, the U.S. and Germany had surpassed Great Britain as the leading forces of the International eugenics movement. Around that time, Ernst Rudin took control over the International Federation of Eugenic Organizations (IFEO), whose major administrative offices included “The Eugenics Record Office and the Station for Experimental Evolution in Cold Spring Harbor,” New York, currently home to the Human Genome Project, and the “Kaiser Wilhelm Institute in Berlin.”

THE SECRET WAR AGAINST THE JEWS

Under the cloak of his official position, Rockefeller and his chronies would take over Britain’s most valuable Latin American properties. If the British resisted, he would effectively block raw materials and food supplies desperately needed for Britain’s fight against Hitler. Loftus and Aarons credited the close relationship the Rockefellers maintained with I.G. Farben for their preferential treatment of Hitler over Churchill in THE SECRET WAR AGAINST THE JEWS: “The Rockefellers just happened to own the largest stock in Standard of New Jersey and were then in partnership with the Nazi-controlled I.G. Farben, which held the second largest share of the Rockefeller-controlled oil company, to develop synthetic gas and rubber. The sources among the former intelligence officers whom we interviewed on the Rockefellers say that the family was in complete agreement with the DULLES BROTHERS and FORRESTAL on the question of preserving U.S. profits, no matter who won the war. In 1936, the Rockefellers entered into partnership with ALLEN DULLES’S NAZI FRONT, the Schroder Bank of New York, which was a key institution in the Fascist economic miracle for which Hitler was credited. In 1939, the Rockefeller controlled Chase National Bank secured $25 million for Nazi Germany and supplied Berlin with information on ten thousand Nazi sympathizers in the United States. Except for a few months interruption, the Rockefeller owned Standard Oil Company shipped oil to the Nazis through Spain all throughout the war…” These investigators judged “the roster of the Rockefeller’s known pro-Nazi behavior” as “horrendous”. They noted Senator Harry Truman’s description of the Rockefeller’s company behavior as “treasonous”. On September 22, 1947, Loftus and Aarons chronicled, Federal Judge Charles Clark issued an opinion against the Rockefellers in a civil case brought against Standard Oil. He stated that the company “can be considered an enemy national in view of its relationship with I.G. FARBEN after the U.S. and Germany had become active enemies. Two months later, merely days before the Rockefeller-controlled United Nations voted on the question of a Jewish “promised land,” David Ben-Gurion, and other Jewish intelligence officers, entered Nelson Rockefeller’s office. They “arrived with their dossier” of discriminating proof that he had personally “committed treason against the United States of America…They had his Swiss bank records with the Nazis, his signature on correspondence setting up the German cartel in South America, transcripts of his conversations with Nazi Agents during the war, and finally, evidence of his complicity in helping Allen Dulles smuggle Nazi war criminals and money from the Vatican to Argentina. Loftus and Aarons documented all of this. “It was the perfect moment for blackmail…” they wrote, and that was the antecedent that prompted Rockefeller to direct the decisive South American vote to form the STATE OF ISRAEL.

KAISER PERMANENTE AND NON-LETHAL ETHNIC CLEANSING

One might ask, “Who was Kaiser Wilhelm, and why had the Rockefeller family invested so heavily in a eugenics institute given his name? Further, what, if any, relationships remain in contemporary medicine and public health which reflect these original institutions and their mission to direct global ‘racial hygiene?” In June 1990, the Center For Disease Control with the help of KAISER PERMANENTE, injected more than 1500 six-month old Black and Hispanic babies in Los Angeles with a “high-potency Edmonston Zagreb (EZ) measles vaccine.” Tens of thousands of other infants were similarly treated experimentally in Third World countries. The shots caused many deaths, but generally resulted in profound chronic immune suppression and greatly enhanced susceptibility to infectious diseases and cancers. The study was halted in October 1991, after more than a year of repeated reports from vaccine trial sites in Africa that female babies were dying in higher than expected numbers six months or longer after their inoculations. The public learned that Kaiser Permanente’s HEALTH MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATION (HMO) in Northern California had become America’s premier vaccine testing institution, according to the San Jose MERCURY NEWS. “But Black, Latino, and American Indian babies bear the brunt of the risk involved in getting vaccines to the market,” reported staff writer Ariana Eunjung Cha. “At least 8 out of 14 childhood vaccines approved since 1990 were tested disproportionately in lower-income minority communities” largely through Kaiser’s trials in which “the experimental nature of the products and potential dangers weren’t properly described to parents.” “The socioeconomic and ethnic imbalance in vaccine studies is the by-product of a testing network that grew out of years of cooperation between the government, pharmaceutical companies and health care providers. The first tests of new vaccines are usually conducted through academic centers and are funded at least partially by the National Institutes of Health. The larger vaccine trials that come next can involved tens of thousands of children and take place mostly on Indian reservations or through HMOs like Kaiser Permanente in California, Colorado, Hawaii and Georgia or Group Health Cooperative in Washington. “Kaiser Permanente Northern California, with 16 hospitals from Santa Rosa to Fresno, is the most popular vaccine-testing site in the nation…because of its military-like record keeping, and the fact that some 27,000 babies are born there every year. Since 1990, the HMO has overseen 34 vaccine tests, for products developed by almost every major vaccine maker in the world.” Kaiser’s direction in this community service field, and efforts to “benefit the world at large,” derives more from the Rockefeller-Royal family-linked Committee of 300 and the Stanford Research Institute than from the NIH, CDC, or WHO. Moreover, their contributions to the field of public health derives less from a humanitarian spirit than from major investments in bio-spiritual (biological and electromagnetic)( warfare for technotronic eugenics. For the past half century, the Rockefeller-Farben directed Sloan and Kettering Foundations have not only led the cancer industry in the development and promotion of highly ineffective and risky chemotherapeutics, but they have, since the 1970s, consistently acted as a primary source of propaganda, in the truest sense of psychological warfare, insofar as covering the genocidal aspects of the cancer industry. The lead propagandist has been LAURANCE ROCKEFELLER, not only the long-term director and financial chief of the Sloan-Kettering Memorial Cancer Center, and the top contributor to the Sloan Foundation, but also the DIRECTOR OF READER’S DIGEST with 18 million circulation and NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC with 10 million circulation. This means that the Rockefeller Brothers Fund director personally influenced at least 28 million middle class American households per month. Similarly, the Sloan Foundation has heavily financed “public management” communications research, and supported pioneering developments in this field. Promoting certain famous authors and best-selling publications, the cartel has thus managed to cloud the public’s mind concerning the industrial and iatrogenic origins of most cancers, other immune system disorders, and a plethora of laboratory produced viruses now killing millions. This propagandist function is a necessary objective of non-lethal warfare. Vital truths about many modern infectious diseases, including AIDS and EBOLA, CANCERS, and most chronic illnesses, as well as low cost, no risk, highly effective treatment alternatives, have been effectively concealed by the global industrialists through their use of such propaganda. By what mechanisms might Rockefeller family members have exerted such control over U.S. Government and health science agencies? The answer is, through a hierarchy of privately financed and controlled entities described by Dr. Coleman:

During World War II, Nelson Rockefeller remained highly active in the politically powerful COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS (CFR) directed by the Executive Arm of the Royal Institute For International Affairs under the Committee of 300.

In keeping with its mission and heritage, CFR members consistently pursued three major goals. These included the provision of “new ideas for U.S. foreign policy,” such as nuclear weapons development as directed by Rockefeller subordinate Dr. Henry Kissinger, and preparations for global bio-terrorism, as directed by unrecognized white collar bio-terrorist, Dr. Joshua Lederberg, representing Rockefeller University, and the AMERICAN TYPE CULTURE COLLECTION (ATCC).

Dr. Lederberg was cited for lying to Congressional investigators and the American people on behalf of the Pentagon regarding biological exposures of Gulf War troops. Sadam Hussein’s prepardness to conduct bio-chemical warfare was largely due to the ATCC shipments of biological weapons cultures, including WNV, to Iraq prior to the Gulf War, and Dr. Lederberg knew it.

National Institutes of Health documents and contracts showed that the ATCC committed acts, that, a minimum, border on treason against the United States. These records show that even leukemia-inducing and HIV-like retroviruses were shipped to Russian biological warfare labs during the Cold War. The Senate Riegle Committee investigation failed to determine this fact. Thus, not only had Sadam Hussein received biological weapons shipments from the ATCC, including the West Nile Virus, but also, so had the Russians.

In light of the USDHEW/NIH documents citing the Russian recipients of America’s most advanced viral cancer triggers, and other assorted biological weapons, the frequent allegation of American biowarfare “experts” that Russia led the biological weapons race might now be seen as grossly deceptive. According to the SVCP report of 1978, the Russians required and readily received, complete scientific assistance in developing their cancer virus and infectious disease laboratories and arsenals.

BREAKING CODE 666 AND THE HEART OF THE BEAST

According to biographers, KAISER WILHELM II of Germany was widely known for his saber rattling and perceived war mongering. He was crowned Emperor in 1888 and died in 1941. King Frederick III of Prussia was his father, and Queen Victoria of Britain was his grandmother. King Edward VII of England was his uncle, and King George V, his cousin. Thus, the German, Prussian, British, military, and even genetic roots of the Kaiser name foreshadows the revelations concerning the diversified KAISER INDUSTRIES. KAISER INDUSTRIES was linked to the STANFORD RESEARCH INSTITUTE (SRI) which was founded by the Tavistock Institute for Human Relations immediately following WWII. SRI’s initial purpose involved public relations campaigning and administration on behalf of the Committee of 300 and Queen Elizabeth II’s ARCO Oil Company which desired to develop the Royal Family’s Alaskan oil fields with the help of Club of Rome member and international diplomat Robert O. Anderson who started the ASPEN INSTITUTE think tank. HAARP was constructed by ARCO and was linked to its European counterpart EISCAT, whose website text was copyrighted by Cold Spring Harbor (eugenics) Labs in New York, intricately tied to the Rockefeller Foundation, cancer industry, and “Human Genome Project.” By 1970, the Alaskan legislature had accepted SRI’s plan to process and deliver Alaskan oil. The SRI grew from here to employ approximately 4,000 people with a budget of $160 million annually applied to social science research, primarily for public persuasion. KAISER INDUSTRIES was among the TOP Committee of 300 companies to partake in the RMA—Revolution in Military Affairs. The SRI was at the forefront of engineering at RMA. 60% of SRI’S contracts were devoted to ‘futurism’ with both military and civilian applications. SRI, with direction from the Tavistock Institute in London, assembled what Dr. Coleman called a “far reaching and chilling system”—the “Business Intelligence Program,” in which Kaiser Industries was a “TOP” investor. From this program, Kaiser’s companies, products, services, and affiliates gained the intelligence, motivation, and political support to develop the nefarious medical/biochemical/psychosocial operations befitting a conspiracy to commit global genocide. THE KAISER ALUMINUM CORPORATION (KAC) of Houston, TX, and its wholly owned subsidiary, KAISER ALUMINUM & CHEMICAL CORPORATION (KACC) operated in “all principal aspects of the aluminum industry,” according to their company profile, including the international supply of bauxite—earthy hydrous ALUMINUM OXIDES. This was most interesting for four reasons: 1) William Thomas’s discovery of the Hughes Aircraft patent promoting ALUMINUM OXIDE usage for atmospheric spraying devices to help facilitate “weather modification” and likely Project HAARP as well; 2) William Winkler’s report of extraordinarily high levels of seawater aluminum theoretically linked to numerous cases of neurotoxicity; 3) The routine use of aluminum derivatives in vaccines, which, like the mercury (thimerosal) compound removed from the market in 2000 is a neurotoxin and immune suppressor; and 4) the company’s location in, of all places, Houston, Texas, also home to TANOX Biomedical Systems with its links to the powerful Bush and Baker families, vaccine studies, and mycoplasma investigations preceding the emergence of Mycoplasma-linked Gulf War Syndrome and AIDS. KAC and KACC, the Internet revealed, were re-organized in 1987 and then again in December of 2000 due to bankruptcy as a subsidiary of MAXXAM, Inc. MAXXAM is a company that conducts substantially of its business through its subsidiaries. In other words, it’s a front company, such as those traditionally used by the Rockefeller-Farben petro-chemical and pharmaceutical cartel to skirt anti-trust and insider trading laws. Besides maintaining MAXXAM Medical group businesses, the company operated in four principal RMA industries: 1) aluminum through majority owned KAC and KACC which controlled Kaiser Electro-optics, Inc., a Rockwell-Collins company largely dealing with microscopic and telescopic applications in medicine, aerospace and defense. In this regard, a descriptive list of KAISER subsidiaries shows that a definitive correlation was found between the STAR WARS and psychotronic non-lethal weapons systems and Kaiser subsidiary developments including the surveillance and aerosol spraying technologies. These were required for the RMA and electromagnetic projects to facilitate non-lethal warfare against both military and civilian populations and for populations control.

U.S. PATENT ASSIGNED TO HUGHES AIRCRAFT CO. FOR ATMOSPHERIC SPRAYING WITH ALUMINUM OXIDE (AI2O3) FOR ALLEGEDLY REDUCING GLOBAL WARMING THROUGH “CLOUD SEEDING”

A method is described for reducing atmospheric or global warming resulting from the presence of heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere, i.e., from the green-house effect. Such gases are relatively transparent to sunshine, but absorb strongly the long-wavelength infrared radiation released by the earth. The method incudes the step of seeding the layer of heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere with particles of materials characterized by wavelength-dependent emissivity. Such materials include Welsbach materials and the oxides of metals which have high emissivity (and thus low reflectivities) in the visible and 8-12 micron infrared wavelength regions.

STRATOSPHERIC WELSBACH SEEDING FOR REDUCTION OF GLOBAL WARMING

Inventors: David B. Chang, Tustin; I-Fu Shih, Los Alamitos (Both in California) Assignee: Hughes Aircraft Company, Los Angeles, California Filed: April 23, 1990 Date of Patent: March 26, 1991 Patent Number: 5,003,186 www.carnicom.com www.chemtrailcentral.com LOXLEY COMMENTARY: As you just read, the Rockefeller sponsored companies own BIO-WARFARE LABS and WEATHER MODIFICATION LABS! When you observe what Satan did to Job, one of the things which was send a TORNADO his way, if Satan has control of WEATHER MODIFICATION, then before the 7 last years of life on earth, when God’s Trumpets and Bowls are poured out on his kingdom on earth, such companies could be responsible for many of the global epidemics of famines, pestilences, diseases, viruses, and severe weather! Taking this into consideration, we should not blame God when “natural” disasters strike.

NATURAL DISASTERS are NEVER EVER NATURAL! These UN-NATURAL phenomenon are caused by man’s sins against God’s Creation and as a result of man’s pride and greed God’s wrath is coming on the world. But before God’s wrath comes, Satan’s wrath and anger will come against the human race as he enslaves the whole world with his financial system – a system created by the Rockefellers and Rothschilds to which mankind has submitted themselves to already.

Now, I have heard a lot of Christians throughout the world tell me:

“God would never allow BELIEVERS to go through the tribulation.”

Christians have bought millions of Tim LaHaye’s Fiction books, believing that they will be raptured BEFORE the tribulation of the last seven years of life on earth. Yes, many believers will be harvested through DEATH and spared the horrors of the tribulation, but the whole idea that BELIEVERS will be raptured into the sky and VANISH INTO THE AIR is to place Jesus Christ’s Second Coming BEFORE the tribulation, which has always represented BAD THEOLOGY to me. Such a theological interpretation that Christians will VANISH BY THE MILLIONS is wrong, unless the devil plans to exterminate them and leave them for dead in an unmarked grave deep beneath the earth, which would trick the human race into thinking that either aliens or Jesus raptured them.

THE RAPTURE will not occur UNTIL JESUS CHRIST’S SECOND COMING, therefore, there will be Christian and Jewish saints alive on earth during the tribulation period. We can hope, as BELIEVERS that we will never see the horrors of the last days. I pray, in Jesus’ Name, that I will never go through the tribulation, however, as I watch many great believers being harvested through death, I must consider the possibility that I might have to go through the tribulation with the rest of the world.

HAVE I BEEN LEFT BEHIND? No. Don’t ever think that just because the physical rapture hasn’t happened yet, that you have been left behind because of some sin that wasn’t forgiven or that Jesus would leave you behind because you were such a bad sinner. In reality, your sins have been forgiven by acceptance of Jesus as Lord and Messiah, therefore, though you see the signs in the sky of Luke 21 and Matthew 24, Jesus Christ is coming soon to deliver you through the RAPTURE of His Second Coming. Don’t let anyone deceive you into thinking that the day of the Lord has already come or that Christians have been raptured while you have been LEFT BEHIND with Tim LaHaye’s bad fiction theology.

THE TRUTH is that you might have to witness the horrors of the last days, as you witnessed the Tsunami of 2004 which wiped out 300,000 people on the Asian coasts; as you witnessed Hurricane Katrina wipe out New Orleans; as you have witnessed 113 tornadoes hit the mid-west in March 2006 among 6 states within 4 days; as you have witnessed fires, floods, severe earthquakes killing thousands, volcanoes erupting; weather conditions changing rapidly between HOT and COLD temperatures; chemical trails in the skies as an answer to global warming and people coming down with flu-like symptoms and viruses; wars; murders; theft; sexual immorality; witchcraft; devil worship; Masonic symbolism; child pornography; adultery; lying, cheating, stealing; vandalism; terrorism; homosexuality; child molestation; wife & husband & child killings; ALL THE INGREDIENTS of GODLESSNESS IN THE LAST DAYS. 2 Timothy 3:1-5 – “MARK THIS: There will be terrible times in the last days.

1 Corinthians 15:24 says – “Then the end will come when he hands over the kingdom to

God the Father AFTER HE HAS DESTROYED ALL DOMINION, AUTHORITY, &

POWER.”

1 Corinthians 15:56 says – “The sting of death is sin. THE POWER OF SIN IS THE

LAW.”

Ephesians 6:12 says – “Our struggle is AGAINST THE RULERS, THE AUTHORITIES,

THE POWERS OF THIS DARK WORLD.” So Jesus is going to destroy ALL AUTHORITY AND POWER.

Who can wage war against the Rockefeller or Rothschild SYSTEM? Jesus can.

He already overcame the slavery of Satan’s tyranny about 2,000 years ago. The victory of Jesus Christ can be your personal victory over the world today. As you EDUCATE yourself with Biblical Truth, Knowledge, & Wisdom, you can overcome all things in this world. You might not necessarily overcome poverty, as the prosperity faith teachers will teach you as they buy and sell within the beast’s system, but you can have victory and freedom in your mind as you let go of the world and its desires.

I realized when I was only a teenager that I would never be able to be successful in a SYSTEM like this, for I was not motivated to serve this world, but to serve Jesus.

Today, I am in the system, HELPING OTHERS and I have learned the good, the bad, & the ugly of American capitalism. There is still a little good left and I have enjoyed all the benefits of American capitalism ALWAYS PRAISING GOD and not man or myself for everything I have had a chance to enjoy. Sometimes we just have no choice but to do the best we can to survive within the system that has been given to us – a system we have all become dependent upon.

Our personal struggle is against the rulers, the authorities, and the powers of this world. We are not only fighting against Islamic fundamentalism which is fuel to the terrorists fire against globalists, but we are also fighting against THE BANKS. The majority of the human race is struggling against the BANK!

The terrorist attacks of 2001 against the World Trade Center was not necessarily an attack against AMERICA, but the financial system that created WORLD TRADE, which has sought to enslave Islamic countries who want nothing to do with the FINANCIAL SYSTEM. I would never agree with the terrorist murderers who have murdered innocent civilians, innocent women, babies, children, old folks, and good men like the Firemen and Police Officers who lost their lives in 2001 trying to save lives.

I believe in the SALVATION of people and not the damnation. As much as I disagree with the Rockefellers and the Rothschilds and their SYSTEM; as much as I could PIN THE TAIL ON THE ANTI-CHRIST, I could never imagine trying to kill them, murder them, or injure their families for any kind of agenda.

The World Trade Center towers were just buildings. It is the people within the buildings who were innocent civilians murdered because of a terrorist agenda to hurt

Americans and the world with an attempt to bring down our financial system. Although I would agree with a radical reformation of TRADE and the ELIMINATION OF BANKS,

I would not agree with any terrorist policies of murdering innocent civilians.

I supported the war efforts after the terrorist attacks of 2001. Islamic terrorists deserved to go down in Afghanistan and Iraq. I was glad Sadaam Hussein was captured and that George Bush got to enjoy some of the victories of the war effort against Islamic murderers.

But despite my support of the war against terrorist murderers who kill innocent women, children, and people, this did not change my lack of patriotism towards THE

FINANCIAL SYSTEM which had corrupted America and all nations.

Today, everyone is governed and controlled by THE BANK. I call BANKING

POLICY “COMMUNISTIC CAPITALISM.”

I am not going to incite that terrorism, violence and blowing up banks is the answer. Killing Islamic fundamentalists in our global warfare is a necessary evil. We need to get rid of these Islamic radicals who kill in the Name of a false prophet and a false god and this is something that needs to get done for a better world peace.

It is in this context that I supported the War against Afghanistan and Iraq.

I supported every troop with love and prayer who rounded up Islamic terrorists and either sent them to their Allah or put them into prison. I was completely overjoyed when President Bush made a decision as Commander-in-Chief to bring Sadaam Hussein to International Trial before his own people. I think that Islamic terrorists who blow up women, babies, children, weddings, buses, hotels, and innocent people ought to be rounded up and be treated as they treated others. War is necessary against such wicked and perverse men who would murder innocent people.

I think most terrorists are really stupid.

Bombing the World Trade Center was a stupid thing to do.

Using a whole airplane of people to bomb the Pentagon was a stupid and careless thing to do and accomplished nothing.

If terrorists were smart they would educate themselves on how the wealthy became wealthy and go after the DISHONEST WEALTHY MEN who grew rich through

GREED, MURDER, DECEPTION, LYING, CHEATING, & STEALING.

If you want to accomplish a goal you have to after the KING PIN, the actual mastermind snake behind the plots. The United States Leaders played a smart move in going after the ring leaders of terrorism. We got Sadaam Hussein! We caught many terrorist leaders. Not capturing Osama was a huge disappointment from 2001 – 2005, but many great warriors who fought for the United States of America and the freedom of

Iraqis and Afghans kept the world a safer place by removing Islamic terrorists from the world and sending them to their Satanic Allah. I completely applaud the leaders who brought down the terrorists who murdered innocent people.

As you just read, the ROCKEFELLERS were also terrorists and terrorized the world. Has anyone killed the Rockefellers? No. As much as I hate the System that the

Rockefellers built, I could never dream of murdering them or killing them as an act of war. Even if the anti-Christ himself stepped out of the Rockefeller family, I could not take his life into my own hands. Now if I could pin the tail on the Anti-Christ within the

Rockefeller family or the , could I form an army and go after him? If I were smart and believed that the devil was hiding inside of a wealthy family, then I would go after that family and destroy them.

The terrorists are actually dumb enough not to destroy the great Satans of

America and Europe. The great Satans of European and American Banking still run and organize the banks. People are still slaves of the capitalist system. The organizations that they built still exist. NOTHING HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH

TERRORISM AND THE MURDER OF INNOCENT CIVILIANS!

Even if you killed off the Rockefellers one by one, another Rockefeller will rise up under a different name. If you killed off the Rothschilds, another Rothschild would arise under a different name.

The Beast out of the Sea is going to be killed with the sword and it is the beast out of the earth who will cause the whole world to worship the image of the beast out of the sea. It appears that an attempt to kill the anti-Christ will be successful, but only for a short time, because there are two anti-Christs mentioned: THE BEAST OUT OF THE

SEA and the BEAST OUT OF THE EARTH (Revelation 13). Jesus is going to destroy the beast out of the earth by the splendor of His Second

Coming and the tribulation of the 7 trumpets and 7 bowls come from God’s Wrath. The devil is going to be thrown into the lake of fire. So we learn that any human attempts to kill off the anti-Christ or his network is doomed to failure. Prophecy highlights that he is going to rule the world until God puts a stop to His Rule by treating the Anti-Christ and

His Network as He treated Pharoah and his army when they enslaved the Israelites.

So as Christians, we cannot wage war against the Rockefellers.

The only way to destroy their pyramids would be through eliminating banks by peaceful protests. The banks will have to be shut down in order to free the human race.

Would blowing up one bank solve our slavery issues? No.

Blowing up a bank is not the answer.

If we kill off the Rockefellers and the Rothschilds, would that do any good?

Probably not. If we could pin the tail on the Anti-Christ as being a Rockefeller or a Rothschild, he would be wounded by the sword and yet live, because the beast out of the earth will revive his image and cause him to speak and cause everyone who refuses to worship him to be killed. Satan’s Anti-Christ Network will be the last days mafia.

The PLAYBOY FOUNDATION and the ACLU are both still functioning and aren’t going away.

The UNITED NATIONS will never be destroyed.

The government of the UNITED STATES will never be destroyed (as there is a backup underground leadership to replace the Senate and House of Reps should our current one be wiped out. So if you decide that you want to form a group or an army to stand up and oppose the anti-Christ pyramid, know that you are destined to loose the war. Prophecy declares that fact.

I by no means support terrorism, violence, or murder as a solution against the anti-Christ Network. This is something that will require God’s Wrath and not human justice. God has not called the last days saints to wage war against the anti-Christ and you could probably kill a Rockefeller or a Rothschild only to find out that the anti-Christ was an Italian ruling from the Masonic Lodge in Italy. If you actually meet the devil and knew it was the devil standing before you, you could try to kill the body he is inhabiting, but he will only jump into another body.

The Beast out of the Sea will be targeted and slain, but another ruler will come and cause everyone to worship the beast who was slain by the sword and yet lived.

We need to somehow fight against COMMUNISTIC CAPITALISM in a way that doesn’t murder and take human life. We have the American Right and Freedom to speak out against the Rockefellers, the Rothschilds, and all their banking affiliates. We can choose to rebel against THE SYSTEM that they created. Since they are the current

Caesars of the world, we don’t have to respect them, like them, or even think they are brilliant.

For all we know, the Rockefellers and Rothschilds, once you actually know their real motives, might have had pure motives from their hearts. However, their faith in their man-made system should be opposed, as their system is unfair.

More than 2 billion people in the world live on less than $2.00 a day. When you are not financially successful, your personal war is against THE BANK. THE BANK killed the souls of all my relatives. THE BANK killed my parents. THE BANK has always been a continual nuisance to me. It is THE BANK that has created my misery. It is the policies of BANKING that has manipulated and controlled the world, from College to career, from student loans to mortgages to credit cards.

In today’s churches, especially in “CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN” circles, they teach you to “SUBMIT TO THE GOVERNING AUTHORITIES” to fulfill Romans 13:1

– “Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established.”

Most conservative Christians will preach to you to submit to the authority of your local pastor, your ‘SPIRITUAL LEADERS’, your bosses at work, your government officials. Most Churches are ignorant of the BANKING SYSTEM and how the BANK came to enslave everyone. Why? Because they must go to the BANK to keep their own doors open. They must rely on YOUR BANK ACCOUNT for donations. The

CHURCHES have also become slaves to the ROCKEFELLER MIND of SUCCESS and

SELF-ESTEEM.

However, we must decide, once and for all, how to distinguish an AUTHORITY that comes from the Holy God of Israel and an authority that does not come from the God of Israel. In the case of military service, you have no rights to your personal opinions or rebellions against superior officers. You will be charged and punished with insubordination for refusing to obey a direct order from a superior officer who issues you a command to get a job done. Today, if you rebel against the BANK you will end up poor, homeless and kicked around by the militant POLICE who have orders to restrict your freedoms wherever you go to lay your head down. Although Jesus Christ is our ONE AND ONLY AUTHORITY who will

DESTROY ALL AUTHORITY in this world by His Second Coming and it is only to

Him to Whom we must account, sometimes we must have to tolerate abusive people IN

AUTHORITY who abuse their own authority as granted to them by the church state.

We do have personal rights to defend ourselves against abuses which violate our personal beliefs, convictions, and faiths. The greatest Gift that our Creator gave to

Americans is THE FREEDOM TO CHOOSE. We can CHOOSE the narrow path that leads to Eternal Life or we can take the wide road that the Rockefellers paved which leads to eternal death and hell.

If someone asks us to do something that is out of harmony with the Gospel, and they can be the most conservative “Christian” you ever met, we are to resist and rebel against them, exercising our God-given rights to NOT OBEY “THEIR” authority. When someone sits themselves up on God’s Throne as an AUTHORITY to speak on behalf of

Jesus, then they have an anti-Christ spirit that must be opposed and rejected.

If authority is not delegated properly, we have a right to protest with our grievances against the improper handling of human authority. When Israel asked God for a king like the other nations had, they insulted God and so he gave them what they wanted: a human king. Look at what happened to all of those human kings and eventually the whole nation of Israel! Will it be any different when people ask for a King in the place of Jesus; when Churches teach you that you should be held accountable to a

Pastor; that you should go to a Counselor; that you should submit to the President of the

United States or your local corporation. Should you submit to man’s authority or God’s

Authority? In the military, we must use lawyers and duke it out with superior officers in a court of law and most of the time we will loose because usually what a superior officer commands is GOLD no matter what verbally abusive approach they have used to intimidate and harass you into compliance towards an ungodly command. In corporate

America, man sets up either men or women as SUPERVISORS, BOSSES, MANAGERS, and various other names for ranks. Who is your CEO and how are they treating you today? Humble authorities never wave their badge in front of their sub-ordinates, but merely use the voice of their command to get business done. “Please do this” and

“Please do that,” is all that AUTHORITY is supposed to command. When a request or a command is delegated to us, we must obey them to get the job done and it is exclusively in this case that human authority can be respected and obeyed, since such authority comes from God. However, when a person shouts at you, is rude to you, is mean to you, threatens you, intimidates you, and always dangles your job while flashing the badge of their AUTHORITY in your face, you have rights to either challenge them or find another job where you can delete that person’s angry face from your life.

Most bosses in corporate America tend to be angry and take their anger out on the people at the low end of their stiff-necked totem pole.

IN THE REAL AMERICA, IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, no such abuses can be or should be tolerated. We are simply free to disagree with anyone and everyone and any form of verbal abuse or intimidation does not have to be tolerated.

I noticed many corporate abuses in working in corporate America and most of the time, poor people are too poor to sue for discrimination or unfair layoff practices. Sure, many CONSERVATIVE Pastors usually counsel their congregations to just

‘turn the other cheek’ when it comes to a verbally abusive person and such a strategy generally works (when they have no authority over you). But oftentimes, even within today’s churches, AUTHORITY IS ABUSED and people are verbally abused, harassed, and hurt by the actions of fellow believers who have become convinced that THEY are the authority in place of Jesus.

In the last days, as people accept the biochip implants in their hands and foreheads to scan their identifications and buy and sell in the global economy, we will be forced to REBEL AGAINST ALL AUTHORITY, POWER, & DOMINION saying no to the State and Federal Government for CAUSING US TO RECEIVE A BIOCHIP in our right hands or in our foreheads so that we can’t buy or sell without this biochip.

What we are really looking at is SOCIAL ANARCHY rather than SOCIAL

CONFORMITY in the last days.

What was the beginning of being caused to accept such a biochip mark implanted in our hands and foreheads? What was the first stage of being treated like cattle, that we were FORCED to accept the GLOBAL MONETARY SYSTEM and be classified with computer databases?

Let us start with THE ROCKEFELLER CAPITALIST SYSTEM, through which the whole world could not buy or sell without. The beast’s economic system began with the Rockefeller Conspiracies and to say that the Rockefellers never conspired a plan for world domination is sheer ignorance of the facts of their proven history. Their history is an insult to all of us because ALL OF US ARE GUILTY OF BUYING WHAT THE

ROCKEFELLERS SOLD US! If you are an American, you are a CAPITALIST!

If you shook hands in business dealings with American Business leaders – YOU

ARE A CAPITALIST!

Capitalism was a better system than communism for a time, but what worked in the beginning stages of capitalism no longer works today and so tomorrow, a new economy is coming – one that will introduce biometrics into the financial system.

Communism was defeated by capitalism but with time, we were forced to accept the policies of COMMUNISTIC CAPITALISM, without question. Any rebellion against this SYSTEM will generate poverty, banishment, and death.

Okay, so perhaps the original Rockefeller family had the best intentions to improve the world with their vast sums of wealth and prosperity. Maybe they themselves were never the anti-Christ with an intended purpose of creating an anti-Christ global empire, but when surveying what their MONEY has done to the world, I am doubting. I have seen what MONEY has done to my local church that my grandma attended; I have experienced what MONEY did to some of my relatives who became obsessed with the

System at the cost of love for their mother and sister; I have seen what MONEY has done to everybody, everywhere and IT’S NOT ALL GOOD.

Yes, we can thank the many inventors, architects, and the contributors to advancements in medicine, science, & technology for their hard work in providing a more comfortable, better world on a material level. However, everyone was bought at a price for their hard labor. Although the wealthy benefited on a financial level, what about all the employees who worked for them for CHEAP LABOR? How many people were hired and fired within each corporation to make wealthy people wealthier. THE PRIDE OF MAN does not come from God through self-magnification, which is what the whole

College and Career system is based upon – PRIDE IN SELF-ACHIEVEMENT.

The Pride of Satan was that he no longer needed God.

The Pride of College says that you no longer need your parents and you can and should make it on your own.

The Pride of the modern woman teaches that she no longer needs a man to obtain material possessions for herself and can now have a baby with her girlfriend instead.

The Pride of a Career says, “LOOK AT ME! I AM SUCCESSFUL! I DID IT ALL BY

MYSELF!” Not once, in secular corporate America, does anyone praise Jesus for their lives of working and laboring and toiling. Jesus is kept a silent byword in corporate

America.

You can now be any religion, other than a Jesus Freak, for if you are a Jesus Freak, then surely OUR CAPITALIST AGENDA HAS NO PLACE FOR YOU TO LAY YOUR

HEAD DOWN! Sorry, but we will only keep homeless shelters open for women who have children and are willing to make slaves out of their children with the various

PROGRAMS that PROGRAM the poor for acceptance of the beast’s economic plan for the PRIDE of SELF.

Is poverty really a disease to be cured by THE SYSTEM? Or isn’t poverty our Salvation, spiritually speaking? If Jesus said, “YOU CAN’T SERVE BOTH GOD AND MONEY,” then why are we serving MONEY? Is that not the goal of a College Education? To SELF-SERVE OUR-SELVES with MONEY. When we worship God on Sundays, can we bring anything else to the collection plate, besides MONEY? Are we really judged by our CAREER? Our EDUCATION? Our place of residency? Our cars? Whenever single Christian men try to approach single Christian women, social status is automatically requested: Where do you go to school? Did you ever go to College? What is your CAREER? What kind of car do you drive? Do you live in your own house?

Women look for a handsome man who has good social status that they can settle with.

There are some Christian women who don’t look for a wealthy man and they are a rare breed indeed. Most Christian women want a Christian man who has SOME KIND OF

CHRISTIAN LEADERSHIP position or else they will be attracted to the black sheep of our Faith, the rebels who go behind the Church to smoke cigarettes and bad mouth the preachers.

I think about what my life might have been like if other people had made different choices. My cousin-in-law could have been married to Liberace if Liberace wasn’t gay and had chosen to love her with a marriage commitment. My Uncle Eddie might still have had his job as AGVA President and his son might never had contracted Hepatitis

“C” and could have been a drummer in a band. My dad would have been a singer, a songwriter, and a musician (which was his dream) and Eddie might have gotten my father those connections to make his dreams come true. I would have been a screen writer, a musician, an author, and perhaps a minister? My mother might have been a super model, for she was extremely beautiful as a teenager and young adult and had posed for magazines and advertisements. If my mother’s dad hadn’t blown it so bad by being an alcoholic adulterer, he might have been like a Donald Trump today and I would have also been a wealthy landowner and an owner of Real Estate. Apparently, my grandfather’s dad had committed suicide because he lost his farm. My relatives might not have turned out to be such losers and jerks if their dad had been a better person.

I often wonder what might have been if certain sins weren’t committed by my grandfathers, by my dad, or by myself. However, what comes out of all those curses for their disobedience and even my own disobedience in my younger days, is a closer appreciation for God’s Holiness, God’s Spirit. If I had been a wealthy landowner, screenwriter, or even a Pastor, my whole life would have been consumed with the business of making money and I might have never learned about Salvation in Jesus. So which was better for me? A good dose of financial poverty in order to learn about

Salvation in Jesus, or a whole lifetime of comfort, wealth, and financial success without learning about Salvation in Jesus? Well, I look at how miserable my relatives all turned out to be for pursuing the material world and adopting the Rockefeller philosophy for their religion. I think that it is better that I suffered what I did in order to learn about

Salvation in Jesus. To have wisdom and a sincere prayer to God with honesty and truth is better than living your whole lifetime in a lie. To me, the WHOLE FINANCIAL

SYSTEM is ONE BIG LIE.

I am not a military hero; I am not a screen writer; I am not a Pastor; I am not a landowner; I have no real estate to call my own; I am not a highly esteemed author; and so when I am finished writing, I walk away the same person I was as a teenager: A simple nobody in the eyes of the world. I kind of like it that way. I really wouldn’t want the fortune, glory, & fame of the world because my soul is entirely consumed with pursuing who Jesus was and is. My soul has always rejected the world and been rejected by the world and I’m really not interested in looking back to Egypt for food and water when God has given the Promised Land of milk and honey to me – mainly the Paradise of Heaven. This world is truly a miserable place and people are ultimately miserable and the CHIEF CAUSE OF OUR MISERY is the FINANCIAL SYSTEM.

Now for those who worked hard and are SUCCESSFUL in terms of MONEY, none of this makes any sense for THE WHOLE WORLD IS BEAUTIFUL AND

THERE’S A BRIGHT FUTURE AHEAD TOMORROW! For those of us who aren’t financially successful, the world sucks and so do the people who run it.

Would I ever dream of committing an act of terrorism or violence against the

Rockefeller Family or the Rothschilds? What if I actually met the Anti-Christ himself?

Would I try to kill him? The answer is no way!

Jesus is their Judge and He is my Savior and since I am perhaps as sinful as all these wretches, I would have no right to take God’s Laws into my own hands and judge them. It will be by the splendor of Christ’s Second Coming that they will be destroyed, so I have no reasons left for world conquest or the elimination of the devil and his advocates. As to my survival, I can die the death of the martyrs who gave up their lives for Jesus and said “NO!” to the devil’s commands.

Who could wage war against the Rockefellers? No one. No one could buy or sell without accepting their policies. No one will be able to buy or sell without accepting

IMPERIAL CAPITALISM which will one day be integrated into our identities through the bio-chip implants. First we will be conditioned through SMART CARDS which will have a chip inside the card, without which we cannot buy or sell and when that proves to fail, the next step will be an implant in our hands and foreheads. As surely we had no way to stop ROCEKFELLER CAPITALISM and the

ROTHSCHILD BANKING FAMILIES OF EUROPE AND AMERICA, we will have no way to stop being forced or caused to accept the biochip implant technology, which will mirror the plan of the Rockefeller conspiracies for world domination.

I myself am always in a state of rebellion against the SYSTEM even though I still work and slave within it like most Americans are doing. My only motive is to take care of disabled adults and do a little good among the poor. I still have my modern pleasures that I enjoy, including a glass of wine here and there. Overall, I cast but a glance at what society calls SUCCESS, not with any primitive jealousy, envy, or a state of contempt. If anything, I applaud the many Americans who are educating themselves and fighting hard to overcome poverty and being under-estimated as lacking motivation & determination because we were at one time minimum wage earners during our teens.

I applaud all the great centers of learning which provide an ‘EDUCATION’ to people so that people won’t be simple, dumb, and without knowledge. The power of learning and invention is something I definitely applaud and support. I see all the talented Americans putting their skills, gifts, & talents to work and applaud their abilities to achieve success through hard work.

The only protest that I really have is how man puts a price on God’s Creation: whether its food, clothing, shelter, trees, land, real estate, and EVERYTHING. NO ONE

CAN BUY OR SELL WITHOUT THE SYSTEM, a reality that has caused every form of misery and depression throughout the world.
