An American or a German or an Egyptian or a Japanese or an Australian a Catholic or a Protestant or a Jew or a Mohammedan or a Buddhist; each alike can be or become a good ameri- canist, in the fundamental meaning of that term which these volumes will strengthen and support. ... seeks to make readily available, in a uniform and inexpensive format, a growing series of great books that define many battle lines m the long war between freedom and slavery. The first fully recorded engagement in that war was between the constructive forces of Athenian in- dividualism and the destructive forces of Spartan col- lectivism. Those prototypes find their recurrent spiritual reincarnation today in the bitter contemporary struggle between the americanist and the communist systems. For the americanist, always and everywhere, education is the basic strategy, and truth is the vital weapon. It is the purpose of this series to supply searchlights and alarm bells, and weaponry and the will to win, for those who believe that Bryant’s admonition must be heeded in every age; "Not yet, O Freedom! close thy lids in slumber, for thine enemy never sleeps.” The INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT DAN SMOOT Published by Western Islands * Boston * Los Angeles THE INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT A Western Islands book, published by arrangement with the copyright owner.

Every day the Presidential tour was given banner headlines; and the meet- ing with Khrushchev was reported as an event of earth- shaking consequence. It was an important event. But a meeting which was probably far more important, and which had commanded no front-page headlines at all, ended quietly on May 29, the day before President and Mrs. Kennedy set out on their grand tour. On May 12, 1961, Dr. Philip E. Mosely, Director of Studies of the Council on Foreign Relations, announced that, Prominent Soviet and American citizens will hold a week-long unofficial conference on Soviet-American re- lations in the Soviet Union, beginning May 22. Dr. Mosely, a co-chairman of the American group, said that the State Department had approved the meeting but that the Americans involved would go as “private citizens” and would express their own views. The New York Times’ news story on Dr. Mosely’s an- nouncement (May 13, 1961) read: The importance attached by the Soviet Union to the meeting appears to be suggested by the fact that the So- viet group will include three members of the commu- nist party’s Central Committee . and one candidate member of that body .... The meeting, to be held in the town of Nizhnyaya Oreanda, in the Crimea, will follow the pattern of a similar unofficial meeting, in which many of the same persons participated, at Dartmouth College last fall. The meetings will take place in private and there are no plans to issue an agreed statement on the subjects dis- cussed .... The topics to be discussed include disarmament and the guaranteeing of . international peace, the role of ix X THE INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT the United Nations in strengthening international se- curity, the role of advanced nations in aiding under- developed countries, and the prospects for peaceful and improving Soviet-United States relations. The Dartmouth conference last fall and the scheduled Crimean conference originated from a suggestion made by Norman Cousins, editor of The Saturday Review and co-chairman of the American group going to the Crimea, when he visited the Soviet Union a year and a half ago .... Mr. Cousins and Dr. Mosely formed a small Ameri- can group early last year to organize the conferences. It received financial support from the Ford Foundation for the Dartmouth conference and for travel costs to the Crimean meeting. The group selected the American representatives for the two meetings. Among those who participated in the Dartmouth con- ference were several who have since taken high posts in the Kennedy Administration, including Dr. Walt W. Ros- tow, now an assistant to President Kennedy, and George F. Kennan, now United States Ambassador to Yugo- slavia .... The head of the Soviet delegation to the meeting in the Soviet Union, May 22, 1961, was Alekesander Y. Korneichuk, a close personal friend of Khrushchev. The American citi- zens scheduled to attend included besides Dr. Mosely and Mr. Cousins: Marian Anderson, the singer; Dean Erwin N. Griswold, of the Harvard Law School; Gabriel Hauge, former economic adviser to President Eisenhower and now an executive of the Manufacturers Trust Company; Dr. Margaret Mead, a widely known anthropologist whose name (like that of Nor- man Cousins) has been associated with communist front activities in the United States; Dr. A. William Loos, Director of the Church Peace Union; Stuart Chase, American author notable for his pro-socialist, anti-anti-communist attitudes; William Benton, former U.S. Senator, also well-known as a pro-socialist, anti-anti-communist, now Chairman of the Board of Encyclopaedia Britannica; Dr. George Fisher, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Professor Paul M. Doty, Jr., of Harvard’s Chemistry Department; Professor Lloyd Reynolds, Yale University economist; Professor Louis B. Sohn of the Harvard Law School; Dr. Joseph E. Johnson, an old friend and former associate of Alger Hiss in the State Department, who succeeded Hiss as President of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and still holds that FOREWORD xi position; Professor Robert R. Bowie, former head of the State Department’s Policy Planning Staff (a job which Hiss also held at one time), now Director of the Center for Inter- national Affairs at Harvard; and Dr. Arthur Larson, former assistant to, and ghost writer for, President Eisenhower. Larson was often called “Mr. Modern Republican,” because the political philosophy which he espoused was precisely that of Eisenhower (Larson is now, 1962, Director of the World Rule of Law Center at Duke University, where his full-time preoccupation is working for repeal of the Connally Reser- vation, so that the World Court can take jurisdiction over United States affairs). I think the meeting which the Council on Foreign Relations arranged in the Soviet Union, in 1961, was more important than President Kennedy’s meeting with Khrushchev, because I am convinced that the Council on Foreign Relations, to- gether with a great number of other associated tax-exempt organizations, constitutes the invisible government which sets the major policies of the federal government; exercises con- trolling influence on governmental officials who implement the policies; and, through massive and skillful propaganda, influences Congress and the public to support the policies. I am convinced that the objective of this invisible govern- ment is to convert America into a socialist state and then make it a unit in a one-world socialist system. My convictions about the invisible government are based on information which is presented in this book. The information about membership and activities of the Council on Foreign Relations and of its interlocking affiliates comes largely from publications issued by those organiza- tions. I am deeply indebted to countless individuals who, when they learned of my interest, enriched my own files with material they had been collecting for years, hoping that someone would eventually use it. I have not managed to get all of the membership rosters and publications issued by all of the organizations discussed. Hence, there are gaps in my information. One aspect of the over-all subject, omitted entirely from this internationalist book, is the working relationship between groups in the United States and comparable groups abroad. The Royal Institute of International Affairs in England (usually called Chatham House) and the American Council on Foreign Relations were both conceived at a dinner meet- xii THE INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT ing in Paris in 1919. By working with the CFR, the Royal Institute, undoubtedly, has had profound influence on Ameri- can affairs. Other internationalist organizations in foreign lands which work with the American Council on Foreign Relations, in- clude the Institut des Relations Internationales (Belgium), Danish Foreign Policy Society, Indian Council of World Af- fairs, Australian Institute of International Affairs, and similar organizations in France, Italy, Yugoslavia, Greece, and Tur- key.

    http://www.ucalgary.ca/hic • ISSN 1492-7810 2010/11 • Vol. 9, No. 1 Whittaker Chambers: The Lonely Voice of Tragedy on the Postwar Right Hyrum Lewis Abstract In historical discourse, Whittaker Chambers has too easily been lumped in with other midcentury conservative anti- communists. While those on the right have held him up as a hero in the American struggle for victory against “godless communism” and those on the left see him as exemplary of the excesses and damaging overzealousness of the early Cold War, Chambers defies such simplistic categorization. His subtle, nuanced thought differed considerably from that of other conservative intellectuals of the time and drew from sources outside the standard conservative canon. Thus, this despairing existentialist became an inspiration and a model for the America Right even as he differed with those he inspired on philosophical essentials. Historians commonly remember Whittaker Chambers as the central witness in one of the most important spy cases of the twentieth century and as one of the founders and icons of conservative anti-communism. Born in 1901 and raised in a middle-class Long Island home, Chambers went off to Columbia University as a young man, but then dropped out to join the communist underground. In the late 1930s, disillusioned by Stalin’s purges and the Nazi-Soviet pact, Chambers defected from communism, underwent a religious conversion, moved to a Maryland farm, and took a job as a book reviewer, foreign affairs columnist, and senior editor at Time magazine where he became one of the leading anti-communist journalists in America.

  • 15 Little Cesar by Ralph De Toledano 1971.Pdf
    Little Cesar Ralph de Toledano 1971 Foreword by United States Senator Paul J. Fannin There is much in this book to worry Americans. But what is most significant to me is the light it casts on the forgotten people of the “great grape strike” and the boycott which brought success to Cesar Chavez, the United Farm Workers’ Organizing Committee, and the AFL-CIO. Those forgotten people were the men and women who actually pick the grapes in the San Joaquin Valley. They bitterly opposed—and still do—the efforts of the Chavez group to force them into the straightjacket of a compulsory union—and one which has reverted to the closed shop practices which were declared illegal by the Congress in 1974. Most grape pickers of Delano knew that the Chavez “union” wouldreduce the size of their paychecks and deprive them of the freedom of action they had always enjoyed—and their fears proved to be true. The workers felt no sympathy for the revolutionary doctrines, espoused by Chavez and his handful of followers, which they tied to their unsupported demands for collective bargaining. But the forgotten people wee crushed by the machine. With almost unlimited funds from the great labor aggregations at his disposal, and the massive assistance of an unquestioning mass media, Cesar Chavez was able to deprive the grape pickers of their rights under the First Amendment of the Constitution. In this tragic process, the UFWOC and the AFL-CIO were the upper millstone. The grape growers of Delano were the nether millstone. Compelled by the threat of bankruptcy to sign contracts with Chavez, the growers agreed to arrangements which sold the grape workers into the indenture of a closed shop—with no other choice but go hungry.

  • The President's Conservatives: Richard Nixon and the American Conservative Movement
    ALL THE PRESIDENT'S CONSERVATIVES: RICHARD NIXON AND THE AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE MOVEMENT. David Sarias Rodriguez Department of History University of Sheffield Submitted for the degree of PhD October 2010 ABSTRACT This doctoral dissertation exammes the relationship between the American conservative movement and Richard Nixon between the late 1940s and the Watergate scandal, with a particular emphasis on the latter's presidency. It complements the sizeable bodies ofliterature about both Nixon himself and American conservatism, shedding new light on the former's role in the collapse of the post-1945 liberal consensus. This thesis emphasises the part played by Nixon in the slow march of American conservatism from the political margins in the immediate post-war years to the centre of national politics by the late 1960s. The American conservative movement is treated as a diverse epistemic community made up of six distinct sub-groupings - National Review conservatives, Southern conservatives, classical liberals, neoconservatives, American Enterprise Institute conservatives and the 'Young Turks' of the New Right - which, although philosophically and behaviourally autonomous, remained intimately associated under the overall leadership of the intellectuals who operated from the National Review. Although for nearly three decades Richard Nixon and American conservatives endured each other in a mutually frustrating and yet seemingly unbreakable relationship, Nixon never became a fully-fledged member of the movement. Yet, from the days of Alger Hiss to those of the' Silent Majority', he remained the political actor best able to articulate and manipulate the conservative canon into a populist, electorally successful message. During his presidency, the administration's behaviour played a crucial role - even if not always deliberately - in the momentous transformation of the conservative movement into a more diverse, better-organised, modernised and more efficient political force.

  • The Fusionism of Frank S. Meyer Red Beginnings F
    Minchew 1 Adam Minchew 27 August 2010 Between Traditionalists and Libertarians: The Fusionism of Frank S. Meyer Red Beginnings Frank Strauss Meyer was born into a wealthy, Reformed Jewish household on 9 May 1909. Although little is known about his early years, Meyer suffered from chronic illness and spent much of his time confined to the indoors. Restricted as he was by his parents and his illnesses, Meyer found solace in intellectual pursuits and read voraciously. As a teenager, Meyer developed an interest in history and politics and apparently saw himself as a progressive; later in his life, Meyer admitted to hanging a poster of Woodrow Wilson on his bedroom door.1 Meyer attended private school at Newark Academy and through hard work, gained admission to Princeton University at the age of seventeen. Although intellectually precocious, continued to be dogged by sickness and left Princeton University permanently in 1928. Meyer’s parents, unsure of their son’s future, kept him at home to recover, but eventually decided in the summer of 1930 to send him to England to further his education, particularly in the disciplines in which he showed most interest: the classics, English literature, and economics.2 But the progressive, economically vibrant and hopeful decade of the 1920’s gave way to the Great Depression of the 1930s. World War I had transformed many nationalist, idealistic young people into mature skeptics and political activists. They sought to remake the world according to one or another ideology that would prevent another slaughter on a global scale. The most severe economic downturn in the history of the West prepared the way, however, for a global conflict that would dwarf World War I in bloodletting.

During the presidency of Dwight Eisenhower, the complications involved in conducting an increasingly global Cold War presented Eisenhower and his officials with extensive and expanding problems. Nationalism, anti-colonialism, pushes for economic rebalancing, and other forms of self-assertion surged in regions across the globe described in this dissertation as the “Third World.” In Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia a variety of drives against the status quo confronted the Eisenhower administration, and Eisenhower in particular, with challenges of immense importance.
