In the 30's, Morris A. Bealle,
a former city editor of the old Washington Times and Herald, was running a
county seat newspaper, in which the local power company bought a large advertisement
every week. This account took quite a lot of worry off Bealle' s shoulders
when the bills came due. But according to Bealle' s own story, one day the
paper took up the cudgels for some of its readers that were being given poor
service from the power company, and Morris Bealle received the dressing down
of his life from the advertising agency which handled the power company' s
account. They told him that any more such 'stepping out of line' would result
in the immediate cancellation not only of the advertising contract, but also
of the gas company and the telephone company.
That' s when Bealle' s eyes were opened to the meaning of a 'free
press', and he decided to get out of the newspaper business. He could afford
to do that because he belonged to the landed gentry of Maryland, but not all
newspaper editors are that lucky.
Bealle used his professional experience to do some deep digging into
the freedom-of-the-press situation and came up with two shattering exposes
- The Drug Story, and The House of Rockefeller. The fact that
in spite of his familiarity with the editorial world and many important personal
contacts he couldn't get his revelations into print until he founded his own
company, The Columbia Publishing House, Washington D.C., in 1949, was just
a prime example of the silent but adamant censorship in force in 'the Land
of the Free and the Home of the Brave'. Although The Drug Story is
one of the most important books on health and politics ever to appear in the
USA, it has never been admitted to a major bookstore nor reviewed by any establishment
paper, and was sold exclusively by mail. Nevertheless, when we first got to
read it, in the 1970s, it was already in its 33rd printing, under a different
label - Biworld Publishers, Orem, Utah.
As Bealle pointed out, a business which makes 6% on its invested capital
is considered a sound money maker. Sterling Drug, Inc., the main cog and largest
holding company in the Rockefeller Drug Empire and its 68 subsidiaries, showed
operating profits in 1961 of $23,463,719 after taxes, on net assets of $43,108,106
- a 54% profit. Squibb, another Rockefeller controlled company,
in 1945 made not 6% but 576% on the actual value of its property.
That was during the luscious war years when the Army Surgeon General's
Office and the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery were not only acting as
promoters for the Drug Trust, but were actually forcing drug trust poisons
into the blood streams of American soldiers, sailors and marines, to the tune
of over 200 million 'shots'. Is it any wonder, asked Bealle, that the Rockefellers,
and their stooges in the Food and Drug Administration, the U.S. Public Health
Service, the Federal Trade Commission, the Better Business Bureau, the Army
Medical Corps, the Navy Bureau of Medicine, and thousands of health officers
all over the country, should combine to put out of business all forms of therapy
that discourage the use of drugs.
'The last annual report of the Rockefeller Foundation', reported Bealle,
'itemizes the gifts [grants] it has made to colleges and public agencies in the past
44 years, and they total somewhat over half a billion dollars. These colleges,
of course, teach their students all the drug lore the Rockefeller pharmaceutical
houses want taught. Otherwise there would be no more gifts, just as there
are no gifts to any of the 30 odd colleges in the United States that don't
use therapies based on drugs.
'Harvard, with its well publicized medical school, has received $8,764,433
of Rockefeller's Drug Trust money, Yale got $7 ,927,800, Johns Hopkins $10,418,531,
Washington University in St. Louis $2,842,132, New York's Columbia University
$5,424,371, Cornell University $1,709,072, ete., etc.'
And while 'giving away' those huge sums to drug propagandizing colleges,
the Rockefeller interests were growing to a world-wide web that no one could
entirely explore. Already well over 30 years ago it was large enough for Bealle
to demonstrate that the Rockefeller interests had created, built up
and developed the most far reaching industrial empire ever conceived in the
mind of man. Standard Oil was of course the foundation upon which all of the
other Rockefeller industries have been built. The story of Old John D., as
ruthless an industrial pirate as ever came down the pike, is well known, but
is being today conveniently ignored. The keystone of this mammoth industrial
empire was the Chase NationaI Bank, now renamed the Chase
Manhattan Bank.
Not the least of its holdings are in the drug business. The
Rockefellers own the largest drug manufacturing combine in the world,
and use all of their other interests to bring pressure to increase the sale
of drugs. The fact that most of the 12,000 separate drug items on the market
are harmful is of no concern to the Drug Trust...
The Rockefeller Foundation was first set up in 1904
and called the General Education Fund. An organization called the Rockefeller
Foundation, ostensibly to supplement the General Education Fund, was formed
in 1910 and through long finagling and lots of Rockefeller money got the New
York legislature to issue a charter on May 14, 1913.
It is therefore not surprising that the House of Rockefeller has had
its own 'nominees' planted in all Federal agencies that have to do with health.
So the stage was set for the 'education' of the American public, with a view
to turning it into a population of drug and medico dependents, with the early
help of the parents and the schools, then with direct advertising and, last
but not least, the influence the advertising revenues had on the media makers.
A compilation of the magazine Advertising Age showed that as
far back as 1948 the larger companies in America spent for advertising the
sum total of $1,104,224,374, when the dollar was still worth a dollar and
not half a zloty. Of this staggering sum the interlocking Rockefeller-Morgan
interests (gone over entirely to Rockefeller after Morgan' s death) controlled
about 80 percent, and utilized it to manipulate public information on health
and drug matters - then and even more recklessly now.
'Even the most independent newspapers are dependent on their press
associations for their national news,' Bealle pointed out, 'and there is no
reason for a news editor to suspect that a story coming over the wires of
the Associated Press, the United Press or the International News Service is
censored when it concerns health matters. Yet this is what happens constantly.'
In fact in the '50s the Drug Trust had one of its directors on the
directorate of the Associated Press. He was no less than
Arthur Hays Sulzberger, publisher of the New York
Times and as such one of the most powerful Associated Press directors.
It was thus easy for the Rockefeller Trust to persuade the Associated
Press Science Editor to adopt a policy which would not permit any medical
news to clear that is not approved by the Drug Trust 'expert', and this censor
is not going to approve any item that can in any way hurt the sale of drugs.
This accounts to this day for the many fake stories of serums and
medical cures and just-around-the-corner breakthrough victories over cancer,
AIDS, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, which go out brazenly over the wires to
all daily newspapers in America and abroad.
Emanuel M. Josephson, M.D., whom the Drug Trust has been unable to
intimidate despite many attempts, pointed out that the National Association
of Science Writers was 'persuaded' to adopt as part of its
code of ethics the following chestnut: 'Science editors are
incapable of judging the facts
of phenomena involved in medical and scientific discovery. Therefore, they
only report 'discoveries' approved by medical authorities, or those presented
before a body of scientific peers.'
This explains why Bantam Books, America's biggest publisher, made
a colossal mistake in its initial enthusiasm and optimism sending review copies
of SLAUGHTER OF THE INNOCENT to the 3,500 'science writers' on its list,
instead of addressing them to the literary book reviewers who are not
subject to medical censorship. One single censor decreed NO and SLAUGHTER
OF THE INNOCENT sank in silence.
Thus newspapers continue to be fed with propaganda about drugs and
their alleged value, although according to the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) 1.5 million people landed in hospitals in 1978 because of medication
side effects in the U.S. alone, and despite recurrent statements by intelligent
and courageous medical men that most pharmaceutical items on sale are useless
at best, but more often harmful or deadly in the long run.
The truth about cures without drugs is suppressed, unless it suits
the purpose of the censor to garble it. Whether these cures are effected by
Chiropractors, Naturopaths, Naprapaths, Osteopaths, Faith Healers, Spiritualists,
Herbalists, Christian Scientists, or MDs who use the brains they have, you
never read about it in the big newspapers.
To teach the Rockefeller drug ideology, it is necessary to teach that
Nature didn't know what she was doing when she made the human body. But statistics
issued by the Children's Bureau of the Federal Security Agency show that since
the all-out drive of the Drug Trust for drugging, vaccinating and serumizing
the human system, the health of the American nation has sharply declined,
especially among children. Children are now given 'shots' for this and 'shots'
for that, when the only safeguard known to science is a pure bloodstream,
which can be obtained only with clean air and wholesome food. Meaning by natural
and inexpensive means. Just what the Drug Trust most objects to.
When the FDA, whose officials have to be acceptable to Rockefeller
Center before they are appointed, has to put an independent operator out of
business, it goes all out to execute those orders. But the orders do not come
directly from Standard Oil or a drug house director. As Morris Bealle pointed
out, the American Medical Association (AMA) is the front for the Drug Trust,
and furnishes the quack doctors to testify that even when they know nothing
of the product involved, it is their considered opinion that it has no therapeutic
value.
Wrote Bealle:
'Financed by the taxpayers, these Drug Trust persecutions leave no
stone unturned to destroy the victim. If he is a small operator, the resulting
attorney's fees and court costs put him out of business. In one case, a Dr.
Adolphus Hohensee of Scranton, Pa., who had stated that vitamins (he used
natural ones) were vital to good health, was taken to court for 'misbranding'
his product. The American Medical Association furnished ten medicos who reversed
all known medical theories by testifying that 'vitamins are not necessary
to the human body'. Confronted with government bulletins to the contrary,
the medicos wiggled out of that one by declaring that these standard publications
were outdated!'
In addition to the FDA, Bealle listed the following agencies having
to do with 'health' - i.e., with the health of the Drug Trust to the detriment
of the citizens - as being dependent on Rockefeller: U.S. Public Health Service,
U.S. Veterans Administration, Federal Trade Commission, Surgeon General of
the Air Force, Army Surgeon General' s Office, Navy Bureau of Medicine &
Surgery, National Health Research Institute, National Research Council, National
Academy of Sciences.
The National Academy of Sciences in Washington is considered the all
wise body which investigates everything under the sun, especially in the field
of health, and gives to a palpitating public the last word in that science.
To the important post at the head of this agency, the Drug Trust had one of
their own appointed. He was none other than Alfred N. Richards, one of the
directors and largest stockholders of Merck & Company, which was making
huge profits from its drug traffic.
When Bealle revealed this fact, Richards resigned forthwith, and the
Rockefellers appointed in his place the President of their own Rockefeller
Institution, Detlev W. Bronk.
The medico drug cartel was summed up by J.W Hodge, M.D., of Niagara
Falls, N.Y., in these words: 'The medical monopoly or medical
trust, euphemistically called the American Medical Association, is not merely
the meanest monopoly ever organized, but the most arrogant, dangerous and
despotic organization which ever managed a free people in this or any other
age. Any and all methods of healing the sick by means of safe, simple and
natural remedies are sure to be assailed and denounced by the arrogant leaders
of the AMA doctors' trust as fakes, frauds and humbugs Every practitioner
of the healing art who does not ally himself with the medical trust is denounced
as a 'dangerous quack' and impostor by the predatory trust doctors. Every
sanitarium who attempts to restore the sick to a state of health by natural
means without resort to the knife or poisonous drugs, disease imparting serums,
deadly toxins or vaccines, is at once pounced upon by these medical tyrants
and fanatics, bitterly denounced, vilified and persecuted to the fullest extent.'
The Lincoln Chiropractic College in Indianapolis requires 4,496 hours,
the Palmer Institute Chiropractic in Davenport a minimum of 4,000 60 minute
classroom hours, the University of Natural Healing Arts in Denver five years
of 1,000 hours each to qualify for a degree. The National College of Naprapathy
in Chicago requires 4,326 classroom hours for graduation. Yet the medico drug
cartel spreads the propaganda that the practitioners of these three 'heretic'
sciences are poorly trained or not trained at all - the real reason being
that they cure their patients without the use of drugs. In 1958, one of those
'ill trained' doctors, Nicholas P. Grimaldi, who had just graduated from the
Lincoln Chiropractic College, took the basic science examination of the Connecticut
State Board along with 63 medics and osteopaths. He made the highest mark
(91.6) ever made by a doctor taking the Connecticut State Board examination.
Rockefeller' s various 'educational' activities had proved so profitable
in the U S. that in 1927 the International Educational Board was launched,
as Junior' s own, personal charity, and endowed with $21,000,000 for a starter,
to be lavished on foreign universities and politicos, with all the usual
strings attached. This Board undertook to export the 'new' Rockefeller image
as a benefactor of mankind, as well as his business practices. Nobody informed
the beneficiaries that every penny the Rockefellers seemed to be throwing
out the window would come back, bearing substantial interest,
through the front door.
Rockefeller had always had a particular interest in China, where Standard
Oil was almost the sole supplier of kerosene and oil 'for the lamps of China'.
So he put up money to establish the China Medical Board and to build the Peking
Union Medical College, playing the role of the Great White Father who has
come to dispense knowledge on his lowly children. The Rockefeller Foundation
invested up to $45,000,000 into 'westernizing' (read corrupting) Chinese medicine.
Medical colleges were instructed that if they wished to benefit from
the Rockefeller largesse they had better convince 500 million Chinese to throw
into the ashcan the safe and useful but inexpensive herbal remedies of their
barefoot doctors, which had withstood the test of centuries, in favor of the
expensive carcinogenic and teratogenic 'miracle' drugs Made in USA, which
had to be replaced constantly with new ones, when the fatal side effects could
no longer be concealed; and if they couldn't 'demonstrate' through large-scale
animal experiments the effectiveness of their ancient acupuncture, this
could not be recognized as having any 'scientific value'. Its millenarian
effectiveness proven on human beings was of no concern to the Western wizards.
But when the Communists came to power in China and it was no longer
possible to trade, the Rockefellers suddenly lost interest in the health of
the Chinese people and shifted their attention increasingly to Japan, India
and Latin America.
'No candid study of his career can lead to other conclusion than that
he is victim of perhaps the ugliest of all passions, that for money, money
as an end. It is not a pleasant picture.... this money maniac secretly, patiently,
eternally plotting how he may add to his wealth.... He has turned commerce
to war, and honey-combed it with cruel and corrupt practices.... And he calls
his great organization a benefaction, and points to his church-going
and charities as proof of his righteousness. This is supreme wrong-doing cloaked
by religion. There is but one name for it - hypocrisy. '
This was the description Ida Tarbell made of John D. Rockefeller in her 'History
of the Standard Oil Company', serialized in 1905 in the widely circulated
McClure's Magazine. And that was several years before the 'Ludlow Massacre',
so JDR was as yet far from having reached the apex of his disrepute.
But after World War II it would have been hard to read, in America or abroad,
a single criticism of JDR, nor of Junior, who had followed in his father'
s footsteps, nor of Junior' s four sons who all endeavored to emulate their
illustrious forbears. Today's various encyclopedias extant in public libraries
of the Western world have nothing but praise for the Family. How was this
achieved?
Ironically, the two apparently most NEGATIVE events in the career
of JDR brought about a huge POSITIVE change in his favor, to a degree that
he himself could not foresee. To wit:
In the year when according to the current Encyclopedia Britanica (long
become a Rockefeller property and transferred from Oxford to Chicago), Rockefeller
had 'retired from active business', namely in 1911, he had been convicted
by a U.S. court of illegal practices and ordered to dissolve the Standard
Oil Trust, which comprised 40 corporations. This imposed dissolution was to
provide his Empire with added might, to a degree that was unprecedented in
the history of modem business. Until then, the Trust had existed for all to
see - an exposed target. After that, it went underground,
and thereby its power was cloaked in security, and could keep expanding unseen
and therefore unopposed.
The Ludlow Massacre
The second apparently negative experience was a certain 1914 event that
persuaded JDR, until then utterly contemptuous of public opinion, to gloss
over his own image.
The United Mine Workers had asked for higher wages and better living
conditions for the miners of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, one of the
many Rockefeller owned companies.
The miners - mostly immigrants from Europe' s poorest countries -
lived in shacks provided by the company at exorbitant rent. Their low wages
($1.68 a day) were paid inscript redeemable
only at company stores charging high prices. The churches
they attended were the pastorates of company-hired ministers; their children
were taught in company-controlled schools; the company libraries excluded
books that the Bible-thumping Rockefellers deemed 'subversive', such as 'Darwin's
Origin of the Species.' The company maintained a force of detectives, mine
guards, and spies whose job it was to keep the camp quarantined from the danger
of unionization.
When the miners struck, JDR, Jr., then officially in command of the
company, and his father' s hatchet man, the Baptist Reverend Frederick
T. Gates, who was a director of the Rockefeller Foundation, refused
even to negotiate. They evicted the strikers from the company-owned shacks,
hired a thousand strike-breakers from the Baldwin-Felts detective agency,
and persuaded Governor Ammons to call out the National Guard
to help break the strike.
Open warfare resulted. Guardsmen, miners, their women and children,
who since their eviction were camping in tents, were ruthlessly
killed, until the frightened Governor wired President Wilson for Federal Troops,
who eventually crushed the strike, The New York Times, which then already
could never be accused of being unfriendly to the Rockefeller interests, reported
on April 21, 1914.
'A 14 hour battle between striking coal miners and
members of the Colorado National Guard in the Ludlow district today culminated
in the killing of Louis Tikas, leader of the Greek strikers, and the destruction
of the Ludlow tent colony by fire.'
And the following day.
'Forty five dead (32 of them women and children),
a score missing and more than a score wounded is the known result of the 14
hour battle which raged between state troops and coal miners in the Ludlow
district, on the property of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, the Rockefeller
holding. The Ludlow is a mass of charred debris, and buried beneath it is
a story of horror unparalleled in the history of industrial warfare. In the
holes that had been dug for their protection against rifle fire, the women
and children died like trapped rats as the flames swept over them. One pit
uncovered this afternoon disclosed the bodies of ten children and two women.'
The worldwide revulsion that followed was such that JDR decided to
hire the most talented press agent in the country, Ivy Lee, who got the tough
assignment of whitewashing the tycoon' s bloodied image.
When Lee learned that the newly organized Rockefeller Foundation had
$100 million lying around for promotional purposes without knowing what to
do with it, he came with a plan to donate large sums - none less than a million-
to well known colleges, hospitals, churches and benevolent organizations.
The plan was accepted. So were the millions. And they made headlines all over
the world, for in the days of the gold standard and the five cent cigar there
was a maxim in every newspaper office that a million dollars was always news.
That was the beginning of the cleverly worded medical reports on new
'miracle' drugs and 'just-around-the-corner breakthroughs' planted in the
leading news offices and press associations that continue to this day, and
the flighty public soon forgot, or forgave, the massacre of foreign immigrants
for the dazzling display of generosity and philanthropy financed by the ballooning
Rockefeller fortune and going out, with thunderous press fanfare, to various
'worthy' institutions.
In the following years, not only newsmen, but whole newspapers were
bought, financed or founded with Rockefeller money. So Time Magazine, which
Henry Luce started in 1923, had been taken over by J.P. Morgan when the magazine
got into fInancial difficulties. When Morgan died and his financial empire
crumbled, the House of Rockefeller wasted no time in taking over this lush
editorial plum also, together with its sisters Fortune and Life, and built
for them an expensive 14 story home of their own in Rockefeller Center - the
Time & Life Building.
Rockefeller was also co-owner of Time's 'rival' magazine, Newsweek,
which had been established in the early days of the New Deal with money put
up by Rockefeller, Vincent Astor, the Harrimann family and other members and
allies of the House.
For all his innate cynicism, JDR must have been himself surprised
to discover how easily the so-called intellectuals could be bought. Indeed,
they turned out to be among his best investments.
By founding and lavishly endowing his Education Boards at home and
abroad, Rockefeller won control not only of the governments and politicos
but also of the intellectual and scientific community, starting with the Medical
Power - the organization that forms those priests of the New Religion that
are the modern medicine men. No Pulitzer or Nobel or any similar prize endowed
with money and prestige has ever been awarded to a declared foe of the Rockefeller
system.
Henry Luce, officially founder and editor of Time Magazine, but constantly
dependent on House advertising, also distinguished himself in his adulation
of his sponsors. JDR's son had been responsible for the Ludlow massacre, and
an obedient partner in his father' s most unsavory actions. Nonetheless, in
1956 Henry Luce put Junior on the cover of Time, and the feature story, soberly
titled 'The Good Man', included hyperbole like this:
'It is because John D. Rockefeller Junior's is a life of constructive
social giving that he ranks as an authentic American hero, just as certainly
as any general who ever won a victory for an American army or any statesman
who triumphed in behalf of U.S. diplomacy.'
Clearly, Time's editorial board wasn't given the choice to change
its tune even after the passing of Junior and Henry Luce, since it remained
just as dependent on House of Rockefeller advertising. Thus, when in 1979
one of Junior's sons, Nelson A. Rockefeller died - who had been one of the
loudest hawks in the Vietnam and other American wars, and was personally responsible
for the massacre of prisoners and hostages at Attica prison - Time said of
him in it obituary, without laughing:
'He was driven by a mission to serve, improve and uplift his country.'
Perhaps it was all this that Prof. Peter Singer had in mind when telling
the judges in Italy that the Rockefeller Foundation was a humanitarian enterprise
bent on doing good works. One of their best works seems to be sponsoring Prof.
Peter Singer, the world's greatest animal friend and protector who claims
that vivisection is indispensable for medical progress and for more than 20
years refuses to mention that legions of medical doctors are of the opposite
view.
Another interesting revelation in the article of Time was that many
years ago already Singer 'was pleasantly surprised when Britanica approached
him to distill in about 30,000 words the discipline that is, at its heart,
the systematic study of what we ought to do.' So now we touch the subject
of sponsorship and patronage. They don' t always mean immediate cash but,
more important, long-term profits.
Many decades ago the Encyclopedia Britannica moved from Oxford to
Chicago because Rockefeller had bought it to add much needed luster to the
University of Chicago and its medical school, the first one he had founded.
Peter Singer, 'the world's greatest animal defender' who keeps a door permanently
open to vivisection and the lucrative medical swindle, gets millions of dollars
free publicity thanks to the worldwide engagement of the Rockefeller Foundation
and the media makers who are in no position to oppose it.
From the article in Time we also learned that Singer' s mother had
been a medical doctor in the old country, which could mean that little Peter
started assimilating all the Rockefeller superstition on vivisection with
his mother's milk.
