TODAY'S WATCH
As we sit to pen today, I am flooded with so many subjects of pressing importance that I am stymied by the mass of subjects, each seemingly as important as any other. Let us ask God's presence within us as we read and each will be guided to that which impacts himself most--then, by sharing, perhaps we can find Truth and Light.
I have been reminded that the next issue of the LIBERATOR will be sent to thousands of alternative medicine persons and physicians. They already know the problems in their own limitation of life practice so it would seem superfluous to recreate "the wheel" with them.
Suffice it to say that it is by much higher forms of killing by murder within the projection of the so-called medical sciences and government sciences and military sciences that ones are and shall become sickened unto death. Therefore it always returns to the political insanity which must be recognized, revealed and then dismantled, if there is ever to be good health upon your orb.
There are writers who have had insight into these matters and I can only ask that you seek into these sources of information for we need not repeat and repeat that which is already documented, confirmed and literally present in your ability to garner the information. The problem is that most of you are barely blinking of your blinded eyes and are at great disadvantage. I do not wish you to consider "Hatonn" in any manner at this point other than you would any writer of "truth" in any aspect of your physical plane. I have credentials which give me "expert status" from far higher universities than a Yale or Harvard in any comparison--however, my task is to give you what you MUST have and then ask that you confirm and act. I have written on Biological and Chemical warfare and the substances utilized. Please go back and read those JOURNALS, as well as the revealing of the source, invention and cause, as well as why the need, for AIDS. I cannot take time to cover it again when it is so readily available and already confirmed in almost all details.
I wish for you, before we go further, to understand--again--your plight of the day. Lies, misinformation, disinformation and a totally controlled media which presents all of these things unto you, deliberately and with full knowledge, for it is a part of the Plan.
CONFIRMATION
It has come full cycle since the days of the Congressional Human Rights hearings in Washington, with fixed Zionist panelists and a Public Relations Corporation in charge of the "show" regarding Iraqi atrocities in Kuwait. Now, what do you have breaking in the news yesterday and today? THE ANNOUNCEMENT THAT IT ALL WAS A HOAX TO EMOTIONALLY SET YOU INTO A HEINOUS WAR! Great speakers announced that babies had been ripped from their incubators in great numbers and the incubators taken while the babies were tossed to the floor and perished. The patients on dialysis were stripped of their tubes and the equipment taken--chelas, I told you then and I repeat, watch how and what is said and by whom. Why would the people testifying be comfortably in America? Why would they have to read from written script? Anything so heinous is designed to stay vividly in the mind in every detail and requires no pre-written scripting. So, now you find that the little lady who did the best job of acting was not only lying, the things DID NOT HAPPEN and she is in fact of the Royal Sabah family in ruling Kuwait--whose father is Ambassador to the U.S. from Kuwait--he, by the way, sat two chairs from her during the testimony. I shouted "lies, lies, lies" at the time--but you wanted to believe that you were sending your sons and husbands, mothers and sisters off to a valid cause. Worse, you sent them off so that they could be trained as murderers without hesitation. Your world is sick unto dying and it is YOUR death which is planned.
POLITICAL PRESSURES OF UNLAWFUL INSANITY
Look at your very political campaigns. It matters not WHO might be a candidate for office--your Constitution says all who wish to run for office may do so--under circumstances of citizenship and age as laid forth. Do you not witness the major efforts to now keep the parties, not only limited to the two FIXED parties--but now keep certain candidates who rebel against the Establishment Government corruption and atrocities OFF THE BALLOTS.
Do you not also see that the incredible and deadly possibilities of nuclear war are now unleashed by the ending of your so-called "Cold War"? I have just finished telling you the truth of the coalition and activities of your enemy in your own nation. As for medical input--I have had to tell you that disease, health and total annihilation now lie in the hands of button-pushers through beam systems beyond your ability to calculate in power and devastation. It is almost blasphemous to even speak of anything further back than New Year's Day, 1992. The gods of Evil can now control all forms of killing by selected "dialing".
I am constantly asked and prodded: "Give us a cancer cure and a cure for AIDS--and THEN we will believe you." and "How can God allow people, especially little children, to die and suffer with awful diseases, starvation and cancer if He is truly God?" BECAUSE YOU AS A PEOPLE HAVE DELETED GOD OF TRUTH FROM YOUR PROGRAM--REMEMBER, EVEN AMERICA IS NOW IN HER POST-CHRISTIANITY ERA. But moreover, the American Medical Association is only an arm of the Club of Rome (Committee of 300) and a Zionist Elite organization to insure that things such as Cancer--not only occur but continue to kill in ever increasing numbers. After all, chelas, THE SAME ONES WHO OWN THE DRUG HOUSES TOUTING CURE, AND KEEP THE NATURAL HEALING METHODS AWAY FROM YOU, ARE THE SAME ONES WHO RUN "MEDICINE"--THEY SEE TO IT THAT YOU HAVE CANCER AND YOU ARE RUN BY AND CLAMOR AFTER THE EVIL BARONS--GOD HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR "CANCERS". "My" curing them wouldn't do a thing for you except make you even more doubtful about GOD! If I overrode all heinous methods of infection and put a blanket of healing upon your world, the cure would be claimed by the drug houses and a new disease would be upon you before sunset. You must cure the problem or you will never cure any of the disease. Can you even imagine the size of the profits from Cancer? AIDS is only a form of radiation cancer. The diseases are created on Earth, controlled on Earth and the cure is prevented on Earth.
THE PROFITS OF CANCER
I, again, to save time and give authority unto a writer of decades of truth bringing--will copy from a book called MURDER BY INJECTION, by one Eustace Mullins. I also would like to, if time and space permit, refer to Robert S. Mendelsohn's CONFESSIONS OF A MEDICAL HERETIC. There are others but these were the most daring and Dr. Mendelsohn, as well as ones such as Linus Pauling, are to be honored into infinity for that which they have EFFORTED to tell you and so few listen--for their works are widespread and in every bookstore. It is harder to find Mullins' work for he is like myself--banned!
I shall again speak of Dr. John Coleman's work, briefly, and more later. I have asked that you even pre-order his "in progress" work. The first volume of some 300 pages is in brief editing and will immediately go to press--directly and unpolished. Even to you who read and are shocked at that which I bring to your attention and by other writers, such as Mullins--you are in for toe-curling, hair-raising shock. I honor this brother but I also am commissioned to take care of him and keep him physically alive--that is no easy task and it will be obvious "why". He has been around the block several thousand times and has been writing on these subjects for decades--ONLY TO HAVE OTHERS TAKE UP THE INFORMATION AND SPURT IT OUT AS IF THEY HAD GOD'S KNOWLEDGE AND INPUT--(BY THE WAY--WHILE DISCOUNTING OUR PRESENCE AND THAT OF GOD).
John was the first to write of the Club of Rome from experience and research which literally cost him his life. It was not intended that his work be lost to mankind and I shall cover that aspect at another time, also.
He is the only one who writes of the Committee of 300, though it is the same as the Club of Rome and ofttimes referred to also as the Olympian Club, etc. He will trace the steps from the very top and through the ranks. If he doesn't cover the whole of the CIA connection, then I shall immediately do so to accompany these volumes of his presentation. It is very hard to get this material into print and life becomes hard to maintain as the very bastard satans such as Henry Kissinger have contracts on your head. Well, the lives of my people, and ones like Coleman, are hardly dull and boring. The very fact that these books with this information make it to print and into your hands--IS THE PROMISE AND CONFIRMATION OF GOD'S PRESENCE--THAT YOU MAY HAVE OPPORTUNITY TO FIND TRUTH BURIED BENEATH THE LIES OF "THE PLAN".
George Green got a threatening letter just yesterday from one who says "...this is your LAST chance, George--to back LaRouche for President or you are lost forever and I shall tell your secret!" The secret? Somehow the man has conjured that the "Phoenix" represents the coming up out of the ashes of the destruction of darkness (true) and that Hatonn and brood must be the returned Satan of those destroyed dark places. The reasoning eludes me but each to his own. He seems to have much fact but "reasoning" is totally absent. He even defines the one God of Light--Aton, correctly--in Egypt--and then blows it by forgetting that the Phoenix is a universal symbol of a rebirthing God of Creation from the rubble of Evil destruction through the hands of his tools--MAN.
People such as this must, however, wait in line, for my people are constantly threatened and promised demise by far more sophisticated operatives in the CIA, Mossad, KGB, ADL and World Zionists. In other words--knock it off, your totally heinous disservice to LaRouche should be enough to shut your mouth. If you wish to press a man for President--you don't threaten his could-be supporters.
What do ' I' think of LaRouche? It is not my business to think anything of L. LaRouche. He tried to open your eyes at great cost to himself. What I DO THINK is that his case is certainly one for the Constitutional Law Center for it is openly stated in publications and by the dirty deed doers themselves that he was "framed" and "railroaded" on false charges via a "fixed" judge. If Constitutional Law is violated it makes no matter whether the victim be saint or total sinner. If you ones cannot see as much--you are on a hopeless track to downfall.
Back to the PROFITS OF CANCER
Thank you, Eustace, and I can only support this work and hope that ones will avail themselves of your outlay of truth. I also wish to acknowledge information on one Dan Roman from a friend in France. You ones have insightful and sharing people--please avail yourselves of the input. Let me just speak of Dan Roman a moment. He is from Romania and tells of the struggle of the Romanians against Bolshevik occupation at the expense of years of horrendous incarceration, etc. Let me just recite a brief partial paragraph or two from the volume of work:
"....For example the Minister for Internal Affairs was a former printer and one of 400 members of the communist party named Burach Tescovich. After he became Minister, he changed his name to Georgescu [you better pay attention because that is simply spelled and pronounced differently in English], a truly Romanian name. He was the number two man in the "Romanian" government after Ana Pauker........
"....Because he couldn't find trusted Romanian people to cover the leadership and the management of all his departments, he brought from the USSR, Poland and the two former Romanian provinces, 200 THOUSAND extra Zionists, changing their names to Romanian ones. Some of them couldn't speak a word of Romanian, others spoke with strange accents. Nevertheless, they were given ranks of generals, colonels and other superior officer ranks, and named leaders of Secretariat, Militia, prisons and forced labor camps. Interestingly enough, Burach Tescovich 'Georgescu' brought these anti-Christians to Romania with a decree signed only by himself in spite of the fact that Romania had a Parliament and a King! His powerful authority was unlimited."
Ah yes, there are daring fighters in all parts of your world--South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, China, Palestine and yes, there is even the element of God's people who struggle hardest of all--in Israel against the corruptors and violators of humanity.
So what does this have to do with Cancer? If you can't see from whence springs the physical blight of the planet--how can you understand the physical blight of the individual?
Now to quote Eustace Mullins:
In 400 B.C., Hippocrates assigned the name of Cancer or "crab" to a disease encountered during his time, because of its crab-like spread through the body. Its Greek name was "karkinos". In 164 A.D., the physician Galen in Rome used the name of "tumour" to describe this disease, from the Greek "tymbos" meaning a sepulchral mound, and the Latin tumore, "to swell". The disease could not have been very prevalent; it is not mentioned in the Bible, nor is it included in the ancient medical book of China, The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine. Unknown in most traditional societies, it spread with the rise of the Industrial Revolution. In the 1830's, cancer was responsible for two per cent of deaths around Paris; cancer caused four per cent of deaths in the United States in 1900.
With the rise of cancer came "modern" methods of coping with it. A leading critic of the medical establishment, Dr. Robert S. Mendelsohn, comments that "Modern cancer surgery someday will be regarded with the same kind of horror that we now regard the use of leeches in George Washington's time." The surgery of which he spoke is the widely accepted and imposed method of cancer treatment now in vogue throughout the United States. It is called the "cut, slash and burn" technique. This method of cancer treatment actually represents the highwater mark of the German allopathic school of medicine in the United States. It relies almost exclusively on surgery, bleeding and heavy use of drugs, with the exotic addition of radium treatment. The Temple of the modern method of cancer treatment in the United States is the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Institute in New York. Its high priests are the surgeons and researchers at this center.
Originally known as Memorial Hospital, this cancer establishment was presided over during its early years by two physicians who were stereotypes of the Hollywood caricatures of "the mad doctor". If Hollywood planned to make a movie about this hospital, they would be stymied by the fact that only the late Bela Lugosi would be appropriate to play not one, but each of these two doctors. The first of these "mad" doctors was Dr. J. Marion Sims. Son of a South Carolina sheriff and tavern owner, Sims (1813-1883) was a nineteenth century "women's doctor". For years he dabbled in "experimental surgery" by performing experiments on slave women in the South. According to his biographer, these operations were "little short of murderous". When plantation owners refused to allow him to conduct further experiments on their slaves, he was forced to purchase a seventeen year old slave girl for $500. Within a few months he had performed some thirty operations on this unfortunate, a girl named Anarcha. Because there was no anesthesia at the time, he had to ask friends to hold Anarcha down while he performed his surgery. After one or two such experiences, they usually refused to have anything further to do with him. He continued to experiment on Anarcha for four years and, in 1853, he decided to move to New York. Whether his little negro hospital in South Carolina was surrounded by screaming villagers one night as they brandished torches, as in an old Frankenstein movie, is not known. However, his decision to move seems to have come rather suddenly. Dr. Sims bought a house on Madison Avenue, where he found a supporter in the heiress of the Phelps empire, Mrs. Melissa Phelps Dodge. This family has continued to be prominent supporters of the present cancer center. With her financial assistance, Sims founded Women's Hospital, a 30 bed, all charity hospital which opened on May 1, 1855.
Like a later quack, "Doc" Simmons, Sims advertised himself as a women's specialist, particularly in "vesico-vaginal fistula", an abnormal passage between the bladder and the vagina. It is now known that this condition has always been "iatrogenic", that is, caused by the ministrations of doctors. In the 1870's, Sims began to specialize in the treatment of cancer. Rumors began to circulate in New York of barbarous operations being performed at Women's Hospital. The "mad doctor" was at it again. The trustees of the institution reported that "the lives of all the patients were being threatened by mysterious experiments." Dr. Sims was fired from Women's Hospital. However, because of his powerful financial supporters, he was soon reinstated. [H: re-read the Protocols--the man was DOING HIS JOB!] He was then contacted by members of the Astor family, whose fortune was founded on old John Jacob Astor's ties with the East India Company, the British Secret Intelligence Service, and the international opium trade. [H: Chelas, is any of this beginning to sound familiar in other aspects of interesting operations?] One of the Astors had recently died of cancer, and the family wished to establish a cancer hospital in New York. They first approached the trustees of Women's Hospital with an offer of a donation of $150,000 (a very large amount at that time) if they would turn it into a cancer hospital. Smarting from his recent firing, Sims double-crossed the trustees by private negotiations with the Astors. He persuaded them to back him in a new hospital, which he called the New York Cancer Hospital. It opened in 1884. Dr. Sims later went to Paris, where he attended the Empress Eugenie. He was later awarded the Order of Leopold from the King of the Belgians. Apparently he had lost none of his chutzpah. He returned to New York, where he died shortly before the opening of his new hospital.
In the 1890's, after receiving gifts from other benefactors, the hospital was renamed Memorial Hospital. In the mid-twentieth century, the names of Sloan and Kettering were added. Despite these names, this cancer center has for many years been a major appendage of the Rockefeller Medical Monopoly. During the 1930's, a block of land on the fashionable Upper East Side was donated by the Rockefellers to build its new building. Rockefeller henchmen have dominated the board ever since the building was opened. In 1913, a group of doctors and laymen met in May at the Harvard Club in New York City to establish a national cancer organization. Not unnaturally, it was named the American Society for the Control of Cancer. Note that it was not called a society for the "cure" of cancer, or the "prevention" of cancer, nor have these ever been primary goals of this organization. 1913, of course, was a very significant year in American history. During that fateful year President Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act, which was set up to provide funding for the forthcoming World War; a national progressive income tax, taken directly from Marx's Communist manifesto of 1848, [H: And fully in line with the Zionist Protocols which states: "Gold always has been and always will be the irresistible power. handled by expert hands it will always be the most useful lever for those who possess it, and the object of envy for those who do not. With gold we can buy the most rebellious consciences, can fix the rate of all values, the current price of all products, can subsidize all State loans and thereafter hold the states at our mercy. Already the principal banks, the exchanges of the entire world, the credits of all the governments are in our hands".] was imposed upon the American people; and legislatures had their Constitutional duty of appointing Senators removed, they being henceforth elected by popular demand; they all now had to compete for the popular vote. It was in this heady era of socialist planning that the cancer society originated. Naturally enough, it was funded by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. His attorneys, Debevoise and Plimpton, remained dominant in the administration of the new society throughout the 1920's. Its funding came from the Laura Spelman Rockefeller Foundation, and from J.P. Morgan.
From its inception, the American Cancer Society has followed the pattern set up by the American Society for the Control of Cancer . ACS also had a board of trustees, a House of Delegates, and in the 1950's, it also established a Committee on Quackery. This Committee later changed its name to the Committee on Unproven Methods of Cancer Management (note that it was called "management", not "cure"), but the society still used the term "quackery" freely in referring to any methods not sanctioned by its trustees, or deviating from the "cut, slash and burn" method of cancer treatment.
In 1909, the railroad magnate, E. H. Harriman (whose fortune, like that of the Rockefellers, had been funded entirely with Rothschild money funnelled to him by Jacob Schiff of Kuhn, Loeb Co.) died of cancer. His family then formed the Harriman Research Institute. In 1917, the scion of the family, W. Averell Harriman, abruptly decided to go into politics, or rather, to manage our political parties from behind the scenes. The Institute was suddenly shut down. Its financial backing was then transferred to Memorial Hospital. The principal backer of the hospital at that time was James Douglas, (1837-1918). He was chairman of the Phelps Dodge Corporation, whose heiress in 1853, Melissa Phelps Dodge, had been the initial backer of what eventually became Memorial Hospital. She had married a dry goods merchant named William Dodge, who used the Phelps fortune to become a giant in copper production.
The Dictionary of National Biography describes James Douglas as "the dean of mining and metallurgical properties". He owned the richest copper mine in the world, the Copper Queen Lode. Born in Canada, he was the son of Dr. James Douglas, a surgeon who became head of the Quebec Lunatic Asylum. His son joined the Phelps-Dodge Company in 1910, later becoming its chairman. Because he had discovered extensive pitchblende deposits on his Western mining properties, he became fascinated with radium. In collaboration with the Bureau of Mines, a government agency which he, for all practical purposes, controlled, he founded the National Radium Institute. His personal physician was a Dr. James Ewing (1866-1943). Douglas offered to give Memorial Hospital $100,000, but there were several conditions. One was that the hospital must hire Dr. Ewing as its chief pathologist; the second was that the hospital must commit itself to treating nothing but cancer, and that it would routinely use radium in its cancer treatments. The hospital accepted these conditions.
With Douglas' money behind him, Ewing soon became head of the entire hospital. Douglas was so convinced of the benefits of radium therapy that he used it frequently on his daughter, who was then dying of cancer; on his wife; and on himself, exposing his family to radium therapy for the most trivial ailments. Because of Douglas' prominence, the New York limes gave a great deal of publicity to the new radium treatment for cancer. The journalist headlined his story with a page one headline, "Radium Cure Free for All". The claim was made that "not one cent's worth of radium will be for sale". Douglas was greatly annoyed by this statement, and on October 24, 1913, he had the Times run a correction. He was quoted as follows: "All this story about humanity and philanthropy is foolish. I want it understood that I shall do what I like with the radium that belongs to me." This was a rare glimpse of the true nature of the "philanthropist". His rivals in this field, Rockefeller and Carnegie, always gave away their money with no string attached. With this assurance, they were able to stealthily establish their secret power over the nation. Douglas had revealed the true nature of our "philanthropists".
The original press releases from Memorial Hospital had in fact intimated that the radium treatments would be free. They apparently believed that the great philanthropist James Douglas would donate his supply. The Memorial Hospital Rules and Regulations were immediately changed to stipulate that "an extra charge would be made for Radium Emanations used in the treatment of patients." In 1924, the Radium Department at Memorial Hospital gave $18,000 radium treatments to patients, for which it charged $70,000, its largest single source of income for that year.
Meanwhile, James Douglas, who had boasted that he would do what he liked with his radium, continued to give himself frequent treatments. A few weeks after the New York Times story in 1913, he died of aplastic anemia. Medical authorities now believe that he was but one of a number of personalities associated with the early development of radium who died from its effects, the most famous being Marie Curie, wife of its discoverer, and her daughter, Irene Joliot Curie. By 1922, more than one hundred radiologists had died from X-ray induced cancer.
Douglas' protege, Dr. Ewing, remained at Memorial Hospital several more years. He developed a number of ailments, the most annoying being tic doloreau, which made it embarrassing for him to meet or talk with anyone. He withdrew from the hospital, becoming a recluse on Long Island, where he finally died of cancer of the bladder in 1943.
Douglas' son and heir, Lewis Douglas, inherited one of the largest American fortunes of that time. He married Peggy Zinsser, daughter of a partner of J.P. Morgan Co. Peggy's two sisters also married well; one married John J. McCloy, who became the chief lawyer for the Rockefeller interests; the other married Konrad Adenauer, who became Chancellor of postwar Germany. Lewis Douglas became chairman of Mutual Life of New York, a Morgan controlled company. Early in World War II, he became a protege of W. Averell Harriman in the Lend Lease Administration. Douglas was then named chairman of the War Shipping Board, one of the famous "dollar a year" men of the Roosevelt administration. Later in the war, he succeeded Harriman as U.S. Ambassador to England. After Hitler's fall, Douglas was slated to become High Commissioner of Germany, but he stepped aside to allow his brother-in-law, John J. McCloy, to take this post. The two Americans were pleasantly surprised when their brother-in-law, Konrad Adenauer, was named Chancellor. The family interests of the J.P. Morgan firm were firmly in control. In fact, Adenauer's earlier political activities in wartime Germany had centered around a small group of J. P. Morgan cohorts in Germany. They were ready to take over when Hitler died.
In the 1930's, two giants of the automotive industry were persuaded to become contributors to Memorial Hospital. Alfred P. Sloan had been president of General Motors. He owned a 235 foot yacht which was valued at one and a quarter million dollars in 1940. Charles Kettering was an authentic inventive genius, responsible for much to today's auto ignition, lights, starters and other electrical systems. FORTUNE estimated in 1960 that Sloan was worth 200-400 million dollars, while Kettering was worth some 100 to 200 million.
Alfred Sloan's credentials as a philanthropist were somewhat marred by his record at General Motors. He had steadfastly opposed the installation of safety glass in Chevrolet cars. During the 1920's, the lack of safety glass meant that a relatively minor auto accident, if it caused the breaking of the windshield or the windows of a car, could result in hideous disfigurement or death of the occupants. Shards of flying glass would rip through the interior, slicing the passengers as it tore by. [H: Anyone care to take a guess as to what shards of glass will do to occupants of the "Crystal Cathedral" of Dr. Schuller's when the "Big One" on the San Andreas fault comes? How about a massive bombing raid? The picture is quite mind-boggling, is it not?] For a relatively minor amount, the ordinary glass used in automobiles during that period could be replaced with safety glass. Today, safety glass is required on all cars. Sloan made a public statement on this issue on August 13, 1929. "The advent of safety glass will result in both ourselves and our company absorbing a very considerable portion of the extra cost out of our profits. I feel that General Motors should not ADOPT SAFETY GLASS FOR ITS CARS AND RAISE ITS PRICES EVEN A PART OF WHAT THAT EXTRA COST SHOULD BE." On August 15, 1932, Sloan again reiterated his opposition to the installation of safety glass in General Motors' automobiles. "It is not my responsibility to sell safety glass," he complained. "I would very much rather spend the same amount of money on improving our car in other ways because I think, from the standpoint of selfish business, it would be a very much better investment."
The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation is doing well; in 1975 it had $252 million, which grew to $370 million by 1985. It and the Charles F. Kettering Foundation ($75 million) continue to be the chief benefactors of the Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. A liberal editor, Norman Cousins, heads the Kettering Foundation. The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation is headed by R. Manning Brown, Jr. Directors include Henry H. Jowler, former Secretary of the Treasury, now a partner of Goldman Sachs Co., New York investment bankers--also director is Lloyd C. Elam, president of the nation's only black medical school, Meharry College in Nashville, Tennessee; Elam is also a director of the giant Merck medical firm; Kraft, South Central Bell Telephone, and the Nashville Bank; Franklin A. Long represents the necessary Rockefeller connection as a director of Exxon; he is also a director of United Technologies, Presidential Science Advisory Commission, professor of chemistry at Cornell since 1936, a Guggenheim fellow, he has received the Albert Einstein Peace Prize--he is a member of the American Pugwash Steering Committee, set up by the notoriously pro-communist financier Cyrus Eaton who was a Rockefeller protege--Pugwash is said to be directed by the KGB; Herbert E. Longenecker, president of Tulane University; he serves on the selection committee for Ful-bright students, a very powerful position--his list of awards and honors in Who's Who goes on for several paragraphs; Cathleen Morawetz, who is a director of National Cash Register, also a Guggenheim fellow; she is married to Herbert Morawetz, a chemist from Prague; Thomas Aquinas Murphy, president of General Motors for many years, also director of Pepsico, and the National Detroit Corporation; Ellmore E. Patterson, who had been with J. P. Morgan Company since 1935, he also serves as treasurer of Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, and is director of Bethlehem Steel, Engelhard Hanovia, and Morgan Stanley; Laurance S. Rockefeller, who is director of Reader's Digest, National Geographic Society, and the Caneel Bay Plantation; Charles J. Scanlon, director of the GM Acceptance Corporation, Arab-American Bank of New York, and trustee of Roosevelt Hospital, New York; and Harold T. Shapiro, president of the University of Michigan, director of Dow Chemical Corporation, and Ford Motor Co., Burroughs, Kellogg, and the Bank of Canada--Shapiro has been on the advisory panel of the Central Intelligence Agency since 1984; he also is an advisor to the U.S. Treasury Department.
The governing board of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Institute, called the Board of Managers, reads like a financial statement of the various Rockefeller holdings. Its principal director for many years was the late Lewis Lichtenstein Strauss, partner of Kuhn, Loeb Co., the Rothschild bankers in the United States. Strauss listed himself in Who's Who as "financial advisor to the Messrs. Rockefeller". He was also a director of Studebaker, Polaroid, NBC, RCA, and held government posts as Secretary of Commerce and as head of the Atomic Energy Commission. For many years he funnelled Rockefeller funds into the notorious Communist front, the Institute of Pacific Relations. Strauss was also president of the Institute for Advanced Study, a Rockefeller think tank at Princeton, and financial director of the American Jewish Committee, for which he raised the funds to publish the propaganda organ, Commentary magazine.
Another prominent director of Sloan Kettering was Dorothy Peabody Davison, a leading New York socialite for some fifty years. She had married F. Trubee Davison, son of Henry Pomeroy Davison, a Rockefeller relative who had been the right-hand man for J. P. Morgan. Davison was one of the group of five leading bankers who met with Senator Nelson Aldrich (his daughter married John D. Rockefeller, Jr.) at Jekyll Island in a secret conference to draft the Federal Reserve Act in November of 1910. The Dictionary of National Biography notes that Davison "soon won recognition from J. P. Morgan, frequently consulting with him, particularly during the monetary crisis of 1907 . . . In association with Senator Aldrich, Paul M. Warburg, Frank A. Vanderlip and A. Piatt Andrew, he took part in drawing up the Jekyll Island report that led to the crystallization of sentiment resulting in the creation of the Federal Reserve System." As head of the Red Cross War Council during the First World War, Davison raised $370,000,000, of which a considerable number of millions were diverted to Russia to salvage the floundering Bolshevik government. His son and namesake, Henry P. Davison, married Anne Stillman, daughter of James Stillman, head of the National City Bank which handled the enormous cash flow accruing to the Standard Oil Company. H.P. also became a partner of J.P. Morgan Co.; his brother, F. Trubee Davison, married Dorothy Peabody, the nation's leading philanthropic family. The Peabodies may be said to have invented the concept of foundation philanthropy, the first major foundation being the Peabody Education Fund, set up in 1865 by George Peabody, founder of the J. P. Morgan banking firm; it later became the Rockefeller Foundation. Dorothy Peabody's father was the renowned Endicott Peabody, founder of the Establishment training school, Groton, where Franklin D. Roosevelt and many other front men were educated. Dorothy Peabody was on the national board of the American Cancer Society for many years, as well as director of Sloan Kettering. She was also a noted big game hunter, making many forays to India and Africa, and winning many trophies for her prize animals. Her husband was Secretary of War for air from 1926-1932, and was president of the American Museum of Natural History for many years; this was Theodore Roosevelt's favorite charity. Her son, Endicott Peabody Davison, became secretary to the J. P. Morgan Co., and then general manager of the London branch of the firm; he has been president of U.S. Trust since 1979, director of the defense firms, Scovill Corporation and Todd Shipyards, also the Discount Corporation. He is a trustee of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Markle Foundation, which makes key grants in the communications media. Eisenhower's Secretary of State, John Foster Dulles, was also related to the Rockefellers through the Pomeroy family.
[H: Now isn't this a lot more informative and honest than all the begatting and more begatting in that book which fills many pages of nonsense? I guarantee that if you "stay tuned" we will discover that these same people I name in the above material will find their names on the "translations of the Bible" foundation for Biblical authenticity AND on the lists of participants in the founding of the Protocols and all socialist/fascist manifestos. In almost all instances in the "begatting order of Biblical transcriptions", the names represent absolutely NO-ONE! Can you actually believe you will get any translated proof of contents of the Dead Sea Scrolls? These very people who control your world control the Scrolls in point. You are going to come into "reason", dear ones, or you aren't going to make it.]

WHAT'S IN A BRAND NAME CIGARETTE?
A. N. OTHER 12/31/91
All Rights Reserved
The United States Government and the tobacco industry are playing a dangerous game with your health when it comes to warnings about cigarette smoking. If you are a smoker, you have quite literally been deceived into believing that the tar in nicotine is the main ingredient that makes smoking a habit-forming health hazard: "The Surgeon General Has Determined That Smoking Is Hazardous To Your Health." That warning label is deemed sufficient to protect you from the dangers of smoking.
As a smoker you have been led to believe that addiction to nicotine and danger from the tar it produces is your only problem. If this is what you believe then read on. Your life may depend on it. Cigarettes are not just tobacco rolled up in fancy thin papers with brand names stenciled on them. Indeed the secret of addiction to tobacco-smoking may lie in the paper itself. A doctor friend of mine who has done a lot of research on smoking told me, when I began this investigation, that he was once invited to visit a cigarette paper‑making factory in the course of his research work. Before being shown around the plant, he had to don a coverall made of a paper-like substance, which covered him from head to foot.
He was shown various stages of manufacture including a sealed room which his guide said was a paper impregnation plant. My doctor friend was informed that in this building the paper was impregnated with a substance to ensure even, slow-burning without the taste of burning paper. Later, when he got home (he kept the coverall as a souvenir), he had the fine dust on it analyzed and when the lab results came back, lo and behold the dust contained traces of opium.
The doctor is thus under the firm impression that paper used for cigarette manufacture is first impregnated with OPIUM. It is the opium that causes addiction to smoking. Even in small quantities, opium is extremely addictive. In his opinion, based upon research on nicotine, he found that it is not nicotine alone that makes a tobacco addict, but rather, it is the opium used to impregnate the paper plus the nicotine that is the root cause of addiction to smoking.
My doctor friend is a smoker himself, and in order to prove his point, he changed to rolling his own cigarettes. Kits to roll cigarettes can be bought in smokers' speciality shops, and consist of a supply of thin paper apparently no different from the usual cigarette paper, tobacco, plus a device that rolls the paper around the tobacco.
After trying several brands of loose tobacco and rolling his own cigarettes for three weeks, his craving was not relieved. Rather, it became worse. Finally, after three weeks of home-rolled cigarettes, he went back to his favorite brand of manufactured cigarette. "The relief was instant, the satisfaction gratifying," he told me. As a result of his experiment, the doctor is more than ever convinced that addiction to smoking does not come from tobacco alone, but from the PAPER used by cigarette companies, no matter what brand of tobacco is used.
Do you believe this is far-fetched? Well, if you do, that is exactly what the government and the tobacco industry want you to believe. You might wish to reconsider the matter after you take into account the following information. If you have any lingering doubts thereafter, then I urge you to write to the Department of Health and Human Services and ask them about it.
You might not get a response from the government, but you will be certain to attract the attention of Stanley Temko, a lawyer at Covington and Burling, legal guardians of the tobacco industry. If that causes concern, then you might try Senator Jesse Helms, so filled with rectitude when it comes to Manuel Noriega (accused, but far from proven guilty, of being a cocaine smuggler). Helms represents North Carolina, the premier tobacco-growing state in the nation.
On second thought, Senator Helms might not be inclined to enlighten you, so you might then try the Office on Smoking and Health, a government watchdog agency which is supposed to have our health and welfare at heart. Dr. Ronald Davis, who resigned from the agency earlier this year, is on record as stating: "I think the consumers have a right to know what is in tobacco products, but I'm not allowed under law to release this information to the public."
The Office on Smoking and Health and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) are the keepers of the keys to the top-secret lists of what ingredients go into making your favorite brand of cigarette, the additives that give tobacco its "flavor", keep it soft, and give it that special aroma. If you thought "taste" was just an advertising gimmick, you would be wrong. "Taste" is very important to tobacco addicts, which is why cigarette manufacturers go to such lengths to create it.
Before doing any writing or phoning your Senator, the tobacco companies or HHS, you might want to reflect upon the wisdom of arousing the watchdog. "Let sleeping dogs lie" may be preferred to "kicking a sleeping dog". You see, the list of ingredients that go into cigarettes is TOP SECRET. Yes, that is right, TOP SECRET. Government doesn't like people nosing around top secret documents, and the tobacco industry is paranoid about secrecy. They might decide to take a note of your name for future reference.
The tobacco industry does not want smokers to know that, apart from tobacco, he or she is inhaling acetone, methyl salicylate, turpentine, glycyrrhizic acid, caramel, shellac, catechol, acetyldehyde, amino acids. What are the effects of these substances on the body when heated, i.e., at that magic moment when you first light up and deeply inhale?
Take caramel, added to give flavor--which smokers believe comes from their favorite tobacco mix. When the burning end of a cigarette heats the caramel--or any other of the many types of sugar used in the manufacture of cigarettes--it produces catechol which, when combined with some of the other additives, strengthen their carcinogenic properties.
This is called synergistic reaction. In tests on laboratory rats using a number of vitamins, scientists Ken Anderson, R. T. Bartus, C. E. Girgea, Kaufman and several others found that by combining vitamins with other substances, a synergistic reaction was observed. What this means, for instance, is that rats on choline didn't show that much improvement, but when combined with piracetum, the resulting improvement was dramatic. Reverse synergistic effects happen when caramel is burned with other additives in cigarettes, thus strengthening their carcinogenic properties.
Do you like licorice? Most kids do, but smokers would not be amused if you told them they were smoking it in the additive licorice root--glycyrrhizic acid--used to flavor and keep tobacco moist, which the American Health Foundation says gives off polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons when burned, and that means smokers are inhaling a known cancer-causing substance along with their aroma-filled tobacco smoke.
How about amino acids? Now, most everybody knows that amino acids are what DNA is all about, and don't health food stores sell amino acids, so what is so bad about it? The trick is not to heat amino acids, nor combine them with other substances that might give a synergistic effect. Once heated, amino acids give off suspected carcinogens, says the American Health Institute.
You can't smoke without applying heat, I mean, where there is tobacco there has got to be heat, and where there is heat there has to be smoke, and where there is tobacco-smoke there are carcinogens. So now you know, cigarettes consist of a good deal more than just blended tobacco rolled in paper, even though the outside package of your favorite brand doesn't list any additives.
Your Virginia Slims, Marlboros, Winstons, Camels, Kools or any other brand you favor contain, in varying degrees, a number of chemicals, plant extracts and other substances which tests in France proved can amount to as much as 8 percent of the content of what you enjoy so much when you inhale that smoke. Do not be deceived by the printed information on that attractive packaging, "Ingredients: Selected Fine Tobaccos".
Like Mrs. Nancy Reagan's non-solution to the drug addiction problem washing like a tidal wave over this nation, "just say no," or applying a PARTIAL warning label to a package of cigarettes, isn't going to solve the problem. In any case every smoker thinks smoking-induced cancer is strictly for the other fellow.
The warning label cigarette packages carry is meaningless and will remain so until the SECRET ADDITIVES in the tobacco are printed on the label alongside what they are capable of doing to your health. It is time that the FDA enforced its own rules but, given the huge amounts of money spread around Washington by powerful tobacco industry lobbyists, this is still a long way off.
Since the FDA requires strict labeling of ingredients used in ALL foodstuffs, why then is the tobacco industry exempted from these requirements? Not that tobacco is a foodstuff. But if it is compulsory to properly label household detergents and to tell the public what is inside a bottle of apple jelly jam, or peanut butter or ketchup, why conceal the deadly poison that is added to an already dangerous substance called nicotine? How about cigarette paper? Is it impregnated with opium or not? Why aren't consumers told what, if anything, goes into the making of the paper?
Here is something you ought to know about nicotine. It causes flushing, a sense of warmth, heart palpitations, nausea (especially in first-time smokers), dyspepsia, muscle cramps, blurred vision, a lowered blood pressure when rising from a sitting position and is suspected of causing deformities in unborn babies if the mothers smoke during pregnancy.
In the 1960's, when the truth about tar in nicotine was brought out and stories about lung cancer caused by tobacco swept the land, the tobacco industry went into a state of panic which resulted in the production of "low in tar" brands to offset dramatic losses in sales. These so-called "light" brands were to help assuage the guilty feeling among those who could not bring themselves to kick the smoking habit, even knowing what they were doing to their bodies.
"Light" cigarettes consisted of lighter blends of tobacco, plus filters which were so dense that smokers could no longer get the all-important "taste" of their cigarettes. "Safe" cigarettes became "tasteless" cigarettes. The tobacco industry's solution to tasteless cigarettes was to use more and more additives of the kinds already enumerated so that "taste" and "flavor" were restored.
But unbeknown to the fans of "light" cigarettes, the cigarette they believed was lighter and safer was now more deadly than the regular type, because of the heavy dosage of secret ingredients it took to restore what smokers wanted most, taste and flavor.
Do our government agencies know about this? Yes, they do. So why don't those agencies responsible for protecting our national health do something about the menace? They did, or thought they had done something with passage of a 1984 law which called upon manufacturers of cigarettes to list "health risks associated with smoking cigarettes containing any substances commonly added to commercially manufactured cigarettes".
That was in 1984; yet in spite of urgent appeals to the cigarette industry to come clean, by 1991 they have still not done so. In 1984 a Surgeon-General's report said that data about additives was impossible to obtain, "because cigarette companies are not required by law to reveal what additives they use in each and every brand of cigarettes they manufacture." What the Surgeon-General wanted was a meaningful list of additives that could be related to amounts contained in each cigarette.
Succumbing somewhat to public pressure arising from these disclosures, Congress reluctantly passed a law later that year (1984) which mandated that cigarette manufacturers provide HHS each year with a list of additives used in cigarette manufacturing. However, the tobacco industry was successful in subverting that law. Congress sold out to the tobacco industry--it is called "reaching a compromise".
Instead of each and every cigarette manufacturer being compelled to give a complete listing of specific additives and amounts going into each and every brand of cigarette produced, the industry--not each manufacturer--was allowed to get away with a general listing of additives which was and still is totally lacking in detail. These annual lists have been described by anti-smoking groups as "page after page of meaningless, useless names". But according to Covington and Burling, the tobacco industry is "complying with the law".
Then the tobacco industry scored an even greater triumph over we, the people. It got a provision entered into law which said that the lists of additives were not to be published or made available to the public or research scientists. To this day it is a crime to provide information contained in the TOP SECRET lists. The "state secrets" of the tobacco industry remain sacrosanct. Dutifully each year the tobacco industry gives HHS its secret list and, each year, H.H.S. dutifully locks the list in its safe, away from prying eyes.
If you believe the cigarette industry lists of deadly additives are public property, in short a government document, try getting it under the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA). You will come up blank no matter how hard you try. The FDA insists on Twinkies being properly labeled, but has nothing to say when it comes to cancer-causing agents in cigarettes and why they should be excluded from cigarette packaging warning labeling.
But even if you achieved the seemingly impossible and obtained a copy of the lists, it wouldn't mean very much in its unrelated state. All you would see would be a long list of chemicals with difficult to pronounce names, not grouped or related to any brand of cigarette. If you are dogged enough to stick with it, you would be able to unravel the jumble of chemical names, but how would you relate that information to INDIVIDUAL brand names of cigarettes? Only the cigarette manufacturers could do it, but they are not about to oblige us in any way shape or form. Cigarette manufacturers say it is their right to protect their "recipes"--they call them trade secrets--over the rights of consumers to know what goes into their favorite cigarettes. This rule does not apply to cereals, canned foods, etc. Apparently the FDA agrees with the tobacco industry for, thus far, the FDA continues to look the other way. Is it a case of special privileges? I think so, otherwise what else should we call it?
Remember this the next time you pass one of those billboards along the highway where some tough-looking rancher sits on his horse smoking a Marlboro as his fiercely keen eyes scan the wide blue skies above him. It would be better for him, and for us, if he were to drop his gaze for a moment and take in the cancer wards filled with pain-wracked or so-doped-out-by-morphine patients, to whom life has become meaningless as it nears its end. Cigarettes are indeed the most dangerous product sold in America.
Better yet, why don't anti-smoking groups go out and erect such "cancer ward" billboards--preferably as close as possible to the blue-sky blue-smoke Marlboro billboards? Come to think of it, a lot of people would find it a sobering experience the next time they pass that hitherto attractive outdoor scene.

The Rockefellers remain the most prominent contributors to Memorial Sloan Kettering; William Rockefeller is also an overseer--he is a partner of Shearson Sterling, lawyers for the Rockefeller interests; he is also a director of Cranston Print Works and Oneida Ltd.; T.F. Walkowicz, who serves with the Rockefeller Family Associates is chairman of National Aviation and Technology Corporation, and a director of CCI, Itek and Mitre Corporation, Safetrans Systems and Quotron Systems; Arthur B. Treman, Jr., managing director of Dillon Read investment bankers for many years.
Not only do the boards of Memorial Sloan Kettering have direct ties to the Rockefellers; they are also closely linked with defense industries, the CIA, and chemical and drug firms. It is no accident that they serve on the board of an institution whose recommendations on cancer treatment mean literally billions in profits to those who are in the right position to take advantage of them. And you thought this was a charitable organization! The fact is the Memorial Sloan Kettering and the American Cancer Society are the principal organizational functionaries, with the American Medical Association, of the Rockefeller Medical Monopoly. In 1944, the American Society for the Control of Cancer changed its name to American Cancer Society; it was then placed in the hands of two of the most notorious patent medicine hucksters in the United States, Albert Lasker and Elmer Bobst.
Albert Lasker, born in Freiburg, Germany (1880-1952) has been called "the father of modern advertising". He focused on easily remembered slogans and constant repetition to drill his messages into the heads of the American people. Like other successful hucksters memorialized in these pages, he began his career as a journalist. He was brought to this country by his parents, who settled in Galveston, Texas. His father, Morris Lasker, became a representative for Rothschild banking interests, and soon became the president of five banks in Texas. He lived in a luxurious mansion in Galveston, was a prominent grain and cotton dealer and, because of extensive interests in West Texas, he became known as "the godfather of the Panhandle". He died in 1916, leaving his son Albert as his executor. Needing cash to expand his advertising business, Albert Lasker hurriedly sold the lands at a bargain price which, in 1916, was not very much. His business acumen failed him here, because more than one billion dollars of oil was later discovered on those lands.
At the age of sixteen, Albert Lasker became a reporter on the Galveston News; he soon moved on to a better paying position in Dallas, on the Dallas Morning News, the largest newspaper in Texas. He soon found that the real money in the newspaper business was not in journalism, but in advertising, which brought in most of the revenue. Lasker went to Chicago, where he talked his way into a position with Lord and Thomas, the city's largest agency. He was only nineteen years old. Because he had agreed that his salary depended on how much business he could bring into the firm, he became a fanatical hustler. At the age of twenty-five, he had saved enough money, together with his family's money, to buy twenty-five per cent of the agency. He went on to participate in some. of the most memorable advertising campaigns in the history of the business. He built a three and a half million dollar estate in the exclusive suburb of Lake Forest, Mill Road Farm, a 480 acre spread with twenty-seven buildings, and a million dollar golf course which Bob Jones described as one of the three best golf courses in the United States. At the age of 42, he had arrived. The estate employed fifty workers, who kept six miles of hedges clipped each week. The French chateau in the center of all this luxury was more magnificent than anything built by his crusty neighbors, who viewed him with ill-disguised dislike. For years, he was the only Jewish resident, and he delighted in bruiting it about that he intended to leave the estate in his will as a Jewish Community Center.
Lasker was always very active in major Jewish organizations, serving on the American Jewish Committee and the powerful Anti-Defamation League. His sister Florine founded the National Council of Jewish Women and the Civil Liberties Committee in New York; another sister, Etta Rosensohn, was a passionate Zionist who headed the Hadassah Organization.
During the First World War, Lasker had been persuaded by his friend Bernard Baruch to join Woodrow Wilson's cabinet as an assistant secretary; this was to be his only government post. Despite the fact that he had built Lord and Thomas into a giant advertising agency, he felt that Chicago was too small for him; he soon moved his headquarters to New York. When he joined the agency, it had only $900,000 a year income, of which a third came from one product, Cascarets, a laxative. After he moved to New York, he realized that he was in a position to launch national campaigns to sell products whose stocks would then greatly increase in value. He cannily invested large sums in products which had not yet gained wide public acceptance, his most notable triumph being his promotion of Kotex, and it was seldom advertised. Lasker bought a million dollars worth of International Cellulose, its manufacturer, and then launched a tremendous campaign in newspapers and magazines. He made many millions in profits on this one operation. Not only did he charge the firm for his advertising campaign, but he also reaped millions from the stock operation. He repeated this formula with other products, amassing a fortune of fifty million dollars. He later boasted that "No one has taken as much money out of advertising as I have."
Lasker was behind many of the nation's most successful radio shows. He auditioned Bob Hope, and launched him on a sixty year career. It was Lasker who made Amos and Andy the most popular radio show in the United States. He hired them for Pepsodent because he said that the half of the American population who listened to the show each evening would be envisioning the white teeth flashing "in those dusky countenances". The sponsor of the show was Pepsodent tooth-paste. Although the program is not denigrated as offensive to American blacks, if Lasker were still alive, he would push it as the nation's most successful television show.
Lasker owned the Chicago Cubs, and was a heavy gambler. He was known to bet as much as $40,000 on a single golf match. [H: But let poor old Pete Rose, an outstanding ball player, bet even a little bit and he is barred from the Hall of Fame forever--after actually performing beyond expectations which place ones in that Hall of Fame. (sic, sic)] He also was a hard driving taskmaster. In the depression year of 1931, he had a personal profit of one million dollars. This did not dissuade him from cutting back the expenses of his business. He took advantage of the widespread unemployment and the depression to fire fifty people from the staff of Lord and Thomas; those who remained had their salaries cut by fifty per cent.
One of Lasker's most successful promotions was his campaign to popularize drinking orange juice for Sunkist company. He is best remembered, however, for his association with American Tobacco's George Washington Hill. When Lasker came onto the scene, Percival Hill was still the firm's president. The son of a prominent Philadelphia banker, he had built up a successful carpet business, which he sold, investing the proceeds in a tobacco company, Blackwell Tobacco; he then sold this firm to the tobacco king, James Duke. Duke reorganized the firm in 1911 and asked Hill to become president, his son, George Washington Hill, became vice president. Lasker got the account after World War I, when tobacco manufacturers were very conservative in their advertising expenditures. They rarely spent large sums promoting a single brand, preferring to advertise their entire line. Lasker persuaded the Hills to concentrate their advertising, and to increase their budget. They did so and sales skyrocketed. In a single year, Lasker increased their advertising budget from one million to twenty-five million dollars. He managed to maintain good relations with the arrogant and domineering George Washington Hill, whose crudeness was memorialized by Sidney Greenstreet in the film "The Hucksters". Greenstreet portrayed Hill as a loathsome slob who made his point by spitting a great gob on the table in front of his directors.
Lasker created the catchy slogan for Lucky Strikes, "It's Toasted". When World War II began, he tried to foist a supposedly patriotic slogan on the American public, "Lucky Strike Green Has Gone to War". The campaign was a flop. It was a flimsy pretext that the green color used in the package had been requisitioned for the war effort.
Lasker's greatest achievement was his national campaign to persuade women to smoke in public. He could be said to be the father of women's lung cancer. At that time, few women were bold enough to be seen smoking in public. Ably assisted by his minions in Hollywood, Lasker saw to it that in many scenes of movies, leading women would be seen smoking cigarettes in public. His greatest success was through Bette Davis, who delivered her lines in almost every scene through a thick cloud of smoke. Smoking in public now became common, creating a vast new market for cigarettes, which, of course, was Lasker's only goal. Some twenty years later, many of these women were dying from emphysema or lung cancer.
Lasker's furious pace took its toll. He had three nervous breakdowns, but his greatest shock came when his wife died in 1936. He met an actress the following year, Doris Kenyon, and impulsively married her. The marriage lasted only a few months. She went back to Hollywood, divorced him, and married the brother-in-law of pianist Arthur Rubinstein, which proved to be a successful marriage. In 1939, while lunching with Wild Bill Donovan at the "21 Club" who was soon to become head of the wartime OSS, later the CIA, he was introduced to an attractive divorcee, an art dealer named Mary Woodard. The daughter of a Wisconsin banker, she had started a dress company, Hollywood Patterns, designing inexpensive dresses for working girls, and then had gone into the art business. A few days later, while he was lunching with publisher Richard Simon, he met her a second time, and decided to marry her. He was just starting to build an art collection and knew very little about painting. He later claimed he had married her to save a million dollars in sales commissions, which he probably did. She tried to get him to relax, and soon had him going to a psychoanalyst. He was lunching with Richard Simon again when he jumped up and said, "I'm late for my psychoanalyst." Simon seemed puzzled, and Lasker explained, "I'm doing it to get rid of all the hate the advertising business has put into me." It is likely that he had put more hate in the advertising business than it had put into him. Despite the fact that practically all of his close friends were prominent Jews, such as Bernard Baruch, [H: Please remember that it was Bernard Baruch who showed up with Eisenhower at a pre-scheduled meeting with my Space Command and we had to change locations, etc. Do you still wonder why we have a difficult time in interaction with you lovely people of Earth? It was Baruch and the Catholic Priest, also present--who prevented Eisenhower from mentioning the meeting to the public--they didn't "want to panic the Christian community".] Anna Rosenberg, David Sarnoff, the New York publicist Ben Sonnenberg, and Lewis Strauss of Kuhn, Loeb Company, he rarely hired Jews in his advertising firm. When he was reproached for this, he merely smiled, and said, "Look, I went into this firm and took it over. Do you think I want somebody to do that to me?"
Among his proteges were very successful advertising men such as Emerson Foote, William Benton and Fairfax Cone, all of whom were gentiles. Lasker liked to call them his little "goyim". He joked about how he could make them jump when he barked.
In 1942, Lasker, having made a large fortune, decided to close down Lord and Thomas. His proteges went on to found the firm of Foote, Cone and Belding; William Edward, a lawyer, had married Carla, the daughter of Bernard Gimbel of the department store fortune. At the wedding, Lasker dourly cited an old Jewish proverb, "You can't make an omelet from two spoiled eggs." He was proven right; they got a divorce. His daughter, Mary, married the Chicago steel tycoon, Leigh Block, of Inland Steel. They amassed a multimillion dollar art collection. She also became a vice president of Foote, Cone and Belding. Block's brother, Joseph, became president of the Jewish Federation.
Lasker had grown bored with wearing white shirts; he started the vogue of wearing blue shirts in New York, which became the hallmark of the advertising profession. He never learned to drive a car and had no mechanical skills. After moving to New York, he begrudged the enormous upkeep of his Lake Forest estate; in 1939 he donated it to the University of Chicago. The trustees promptly sold it off for building lots; the million dollar mansion went for $110,000.
Lasker's importance to this narrative is the fact that he and his cohort, a patent medicine huckster named Elmer Bobst, took the American Cancer Society, a moribund group in the early 1940's, and within months built it into a powerful national force. They used all their techniques for promotion, fund-raising and business organization to make this group the most powerful force in the new billion dollar world of cancer treatment, an achievement for which the Rockefeller Medical Monopoly was extremely grateful. They summarily dumped a cumbersome organization known as the Women's Army, which was very decentralized, and placed all the power of the American Cancer Society in New York. All of its meetings are held there. They also used their business connections to bring in a new board of trustees from the biggest names in banking and industry, charging $100,000 each for the privilege of serving on the board.
After launching the American Cancer Society as a viable organization, Lasker himself became ill with cancer. He was operated on for intestinal cancer in 1950, not knowing that cutting into a cancer immediately spreads it throughout the body. He died in 1952 at the Harkness Rockefeller pavilion. Before his death, he had set up the Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation, which was to make Mary Lasker the most powerful woman in American medicine. [H: It is also because of this desire that the cancer was deliberately introduced to other varying parts of Lasker's anatomy while under the "slash, cut, burn and mutilate" knife of the surgeons. Who, by the way, also did very well later for their sincere and successful efforts. It is almost a reminder of how well the government can get rid of problems as with Casey and his "sudden and abrupt" brain tumor which killed him almost instantly. How could anyone fake cancer of the brain? That story in itself is almost worthy of telling right here but I have much to cover and that can come along with the CIA.]
Mary Lasker soon controlled a vast empire of grants, foundations, Washington lobbyists and other organizations. Her most able lieutenant in achieving this power was the Rockefeller employee, Anna Rosenberg, who has worked closely with her for years.
Elmer Bobst, who was Lasker's partner in putting the American Cancer Society over the top, was also a tycoon. Unlike Lasker, Bobst had come from a poor family, but he also had the born huckster's mentality, taken from that native American entrepreneur, P.T. Barnum, who said, "There's a sucker born every minute." Bobst joined the drug firm of Hoffman LaRoche in 1911, where his talents as a salesman got him the presidency of the firm. He was also a shrewd businessman; just after World War I, knowing that commodity prices were bound to fall, he was shocked to find that the firm had accumulated huge inventories in the New Jersey warehouse. He quickly closed a deal with Eastman Kodak to buy five tons of bromides, a key ingredient not only of analgesics but also of photographic supplies. He offered the bromides at sixty cents a pound, ten cents below the market price. Within a few weeks, the market price had fallen to sixteen cents a pound.
Bobst's great achievement at Hoffman LaRoche was his advertising campaign for vitamins. It was so successful that he won the nickname of "The Vitamin King". He made millions of dollars in the stock market, and he decided to leave lloffman LaRoche for greener pastures. In 1944, he called in Cravath, Swaine and Moore, the lawyers for Kuhn, Loeb Company, to negotiate his terms; they got him a very favorable settlement of $150,000 the first year and $60,000 a year until his seventy-fifth birthday. Having made his fortune in peddling vitamins, he now moved on to the higher-priced pills, becoming head of Warner-Lambert. This firm's biggest product was Listerine. Gerald Lambert, no mean huckster himself, had built Lambert Pharmacal into a giant empire, principally through his relentless warnings about the perils of "bad breath". His father had invented a mouthwash, for which he appropriated the most famous name in medicine, Baron Joseph Lister, the inventor of antiseptics and asepsis in hospitals. A prominent surgeon, Baron Lister had operated on Queen Victoria herself, the only time she submitted to the knife. Gerald Lambert made his name a household word with full-page advertisements for Listerine. Banner headlines warned that "Even your best friend won't tell you." Lambert coined a new word for this plague, halitosis, from the Latin for bad breath. At the height of the 1920's stock market boom, Gerald Lambert sold his firm to the Warner Corporation for $25 million, the equivalent of $500 million in 1980 dollars. The deal was closed in 1928; within a year, the value of the firm had dropped to $5 million.
The resulting Warner-Lambert Corporation had showed little growth during the 1930's. Bobst was hired primarily for his marketing skills, but he soon proved that he was an empire builder, buying more than fifty additional companies. In an astute move, he named Albert Driscoll president of the firm. Driscoll had just served seven years as Governor of New Jersey. As directors, Bobst brought in the shrewdest brains on Wall Street, Sidney Weinberg of Goldman Sachs, and Frederick Eberstadt, of Eberstadt and Company. As director of public relations, he brought in Anna Rosenberg, who had long been director of labor relations for the Rockefellers at their primary holding Rockefeller Center. This meant that Bobst had now established a key Rockefeller connection, as Anna Rosenberg continued to have a close association with her former employers.
Because he was the only one who was aware of his ambitious plans, Bobst had bought heavily into Warner-Lambert stock before he began his great expansion. As a result, the stock increased- many times in value. He was now the largest stock holder, worth many times millions. FORTUNE described his "seigniorial life style, his vast estates in New Jersey, his 87 foot yacht at Spring Lake, and his suite at the Waldorf". In fact, Bobst owned five yachts in succession, each one larger than the last, and all named Alisa, the last being called Alisa V. He also married a second time, marrying the Lebanese delegate to the United Nations. He was chairman of the War Bond drive in New Jersey during World War II, and became a large contributor to political campaigns. He thus became a very influential behind the scenes figure in the Republican Party, so much so that he chose his own man for the presidency.
Eisenhower's Secretary of the Treasury, George Humphrey, of the Rothschild bank, National City Bank of Cleveland, had been slated to speak at a fund-raising rally in New Jersey of which Bobst was chairman. He became ill, and Vice President Richard Nixon was sent in his place. This began a close relationship between Bobst and Nixon, which was almost a father-son relationship. Nixon was dazzled by Bobst's millionaire life style, and he saw to it that the Bobsts were frequently invited to the White House dinners. In 1957, Nixon was able to introduce Bobst to the Queen of England at a White House gathering.
After Nixon's ill-advised, if justified, attack on the press after his campaign in California, it seemed that his political career was over. However, Bobst was not about to give up on such a potential ally. Nixon later fondly recalled the best advice Bobst ever gave him. Bobst had drawn him aside, during what was a period of great depression for Nixon, and earnestly told him, "Dick, it's time you learned the facts of life. You see, there are really only two kinds of people in the world, the eaters and the eaten. You just have to make up your mind which group you're going to be in."
At a time when Nixon had little or no prospects, Bobst went to his attorney, Matt Herold, the senior partner of the Wall Street firm of Mudge, Rose and Stern. Warner Lambert was their biggest client and when Bobst "suggested" to Herold that he bring in Nixon from California as a partner of the firm, Herold was only too happy to oblige. With this springboard, Nixon was able to launch his successful campaign for the Presidency.
The move turned out to be a wise investment all around. After Nixon won the election, the Republican Governors of the states of New Jersey, Nebraska, Kentucky, and West Virginia turned over all of their tax-free bond business to Mudge Rose, giving the firm an additional million dollars a year of income. In January of 1971, Mudge Rose appeared before the Justice Department on the matter of the merger of Warner-Lambert and Parke-Davis, a decision which meant millions of dollars to Bobst. Attorney General John Mitchell, also a protege of Bobst, disqualified himself; his deputy Attorney General, Richard Kleindienst, then let the merger go through. These were the only deals which became a matter of public knowledge; no doubt there were many more. In a brilliant tax move, Mitchell advised Bobst to donate $11,000,000 to New York University for the Bobst Library.
In 1973, Bobst had his autobiography published by David McKay Company in New York. An obvious "puff" job, it was a glowing account of Bobst's accomplishments, unmarred by any unfavorable comments. When Bobst died in 1978, no obituary appeared in the New York Times. This was an amazing circumstance concerning one of New York's most prominent tycoons. The Times routinely memorialized even the minor executives of New York firms. Strangely enough, a public statement about Bobst did appear in the Times, a memorial eulogy by his longtime friend, Laurance Rockefeller, the chairman of Sloan Kettering. Rockefeller said, "His efforts in the fight against cancer earned the sincere gratitude of cancer patients and researchers as well as the general public." Perhaps Bobst's real memorial is the label of Listerine, which still carries the message, "For Bad Breath, insect bites, infectious dandruff; 26.9% alcohol."

Dharma, this seems a good place for another chapter break. I also wish to ask that you of the public watch something which is occurring right under your noses. Watch the manner in which Oliver North is being set up and getting his big pay-off for taking the fall in the Iran-Contra affair. He is being groomed for President of the U.S., or other major office, by his little conspiracy-mates. He is on (the same program reruns) Larry King Live frequently and referred to more frequently as a wondrously fine and beyond reproach upstanding citizen and officer. He was without a doubt the most sniveling treasonist of your day and age. He represents the common criminal drug pusher and cover-up artist. He will now be placed as a "regular" on the "Capital Gang" and other regular deceiver programs. If you pay attention, America, you can see it happen and exactly HOW it happens.
Let us have respite, please. Thank you. By the way, most of these wondrous liquid medications and miracle drugs are at least 26.9% alcohol! Beats beer and wine and is ever so much more socially acceptable!
