Tax-Exempt Foundations Finance Subversion From an address given in Washington, D.C., 14 October, 1976, by Norman Dodd, Director of Research, Special Committee, U.S. House of Representatives to Investigate Tax-Exempt Foundations, 1954, Congressman Carroll Reece Chairman. Reprinted from Information Exchange. "...That brings me to two experiences which I will describe to you. The first was my response to an invitation during November, 1953, from President Roman Gaither of the Ford Foundation, to meet in his office in New York. Upon arriving there, I was greeted with the following: 'Mr. Dodd, we invited you to come because we thought that perhaps, off the record, you would be kind enough to tell us why the Congress is interested in the operations of foundations such as ourselves.' Before I could think of how best to reply, he volunteered this. 'Mr. Dodd, we operate here under directives which emanate from the White House. Would you like to know what the substance of the directives is?' "My answer was, 'Yes, Mr. Gaither, I would like very much to know.' Ford Foundation Mission: Merge U.S & Soviet Union. "Whereupon he said: 'The substance of the directives under which we operate is that we shall use our grant-making power so to alter life in the United States that we can be comfortably merged with the Soviet Union.' Needless to say, I nearly fell off the chair. Before I could recover myself and reply, I said, 'Mr. Gaither, legally you are entitled to use your grant-making power for this purpose but I do not think you are entitled to withhold this information from the American people to whom you are beholden for your tax exemption. So why do you not tell the American people what you have just told me?' "His answer was: 'Mr. Dodd, we would not think doing that.' "That was one experience that was very informative. It was incredible. Nevertheless it is the truth." Carnegie Endowment for International Peace "The next experience involved the acceptance of an invitation from the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. This invitation came in response to a letter which I had written the Endowment asking a few pertinent questions. By pertinent I mean that they related to the effort of the Congress to determine if foundations were engaged in what the Congress said could be un-American activities without defining un-American. I arrived at the office of Dr. Joseph Johnson, who was then President of the Endowment. He was the successor to Alger Hiss. Present were two Vice-Presidents, relatively new men, and Counsel, a partner in the law firm of Sullivan and Cromwell. After amenities, Dr. Johnson opened the conversation this way: 'Mr. Dodd, we have received your letter. We can answer the question but it will be a great deal of trouble. The reason for its being a great deal of trouble is that with the ratification of the Senate of the United Nations treaty, our task was done. And so we bundled up everything in the way of record and sent them to the warehouse and adopted a policy of constructing a building across the street from the United Nations which served as a facility for the benefit of those many organizations which, from this point on, would be bound to follow the activities of the United Nations. So we have a counter suggestion which is as follows: If you can spare a member of your staff and send him to New York for two weeks, we'll provide a room in our library and also make available to him the minute books of the corporation from its inception.' "My first reaction was that he had lost his mind. I had some suspicion of what these minute books might well contain. But here was counsel and there seemed to be no disagreement on the part of the Vice-Presidents and all of them were relatively young. So my guess was that none of them had ever read the minutes themselves. As a result I accepted the invitation and did send a member of my Staff to New York. That member brought back to me on Dictaphone belts the following: War: Instrument of Change "We are now back to roughly 1908 when the trustees raised a question, asking themselves: 'Is there any way known to man more effective than war, assuming they wish to alter the life of an entire people? They discussed this question academically and in a scholarly fashion for almost a year and came up with the conclusion that war is the most effective means known to man, assuming that objective. "They then raised Question No. 2: 'How do we involve the United States in the war?' This was in 1909. I doubt if there was any subject more removed from the minds of people in this country at that time than the possibility of involvement in war. There were intermittent shows, you will remember, in the Balkans and my guess is that not many people in the country knew where the Balkans were. They answered the question this way: 'We must control the diplomatic machinery of the United States.' "That brings up Question No. 3, which is: 'How do we secure control of the diplomatic machinery of the United States?' And the answer comes up, 'We must control the State Department.' "That fits in with prior findings which we had uncovered, namely that the hand of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace inside the State Department was a fact. "Finally, we are in a war. These Trustees have the brashness to congratulate themselves on the wisdom and validity of their original decision. Because already the impact of our participation in World War I had indicated its capacity to alter our national life. They even go so far as to word and dispatch a telegram to President Wilson, pressuring him to see to it that the war does not end too quickly. Rockefeller Foundation & Revisionist History "Finally the war is over. The Trustees then take up the problem which they face, namely of preventing--as they put it--a reversion of life in the United States to what it was prior to 1914. They come up with the conclusion that to gain that end we must control education in the United States. They realize this is a prodigious piece of work, so they seek and obtain the assistance of the Rockefeller Foundation. They then divide the task in parts, giving to the Rockefeller Foundation the responsibility of altering education as it pertains to domestic subjects. They retain for themselves the task of altering our education as it pertains to subjects bearing on our international relationships. They then decide together that the key to this is an alternation in the teaching of American History. So they approach these three of the then existing prominent historians with the proposition that they alter the manner in which up to then they had presented the subject. They were turned down flatly. They then decide that it is necessary for them to build their own stable of historians. Then they approach the Guggenheim Foundation which specializes in the awarding of fellowships and suggest: When we discover a likely young person who is studying and looking forward to becoming a teacher of history, we will take him to London to pursue his studies. So they take 20 to London and there these 20 are briefed in what is expected of them. These 20 return and eventually become the most active influence in the American Historical Society. "This coincides with the appearance (which perhaps you will remember) of book after book, the contents of which cast aspersion on the founders of this country, cast aspersion on the ideas which prompted the founding of this country and relegates them to the realm of myth. INCOME TAX "The people will be crushed under the burden of taxes, loan after loan will be floated; after having drained the present, the State will devour the future." Fredric Bastiat In 1979, then Senator Barry Goldwater wrote the following warning about the CFR (Council on Foreign Relations) in his book, With No Apologies: "The CFR is composed of ... most elite names in the world of government, labor, business, finance communication, the foundations, and academies. It has staffed almost every key position of every administration since that of FDR. "A number of writers disturbed by the influential role that this organization has played in determining foreign policy have concluded that the Council of Foreign Relations and its members are an active part of the communist conspiracy for world domination.... Many of the policies advocated by the CFR have been damaging to the cause of freedom and particularly to the United States, but this is not because the members are communist or communist sympathizers. This explanation of our foreign policy reversals is too pat, too simplistic. "I believe the Council on Foreign Relations and its ancillary elitist groups are indifferent to communism. They have no ideological anchors. In their pursuit of a New World Order [World Government] they are prepared to deal without prejudice with a communist state, a socialist state, a democratic state, monarchy, oligarchy -- it's all the same to them. "Our government in Washington now is a horrible bureaucratic mess. It is disorganized, wasteful, has no purpose, and its policies -- when they exist -- are incomprehensible or devised by special interest groups with little or no regard for the welfare of the average American citizen..." http://goldwaterinstitute.org/photos.htm "The Trilateral Commission is international...(and)...is intended to be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the United States. The Trilateral Commission represents a skillful, coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four centers of power--political, monetary, intellectual, and ecclesiastical." Barry Goldwater, U.S. Senator in his book "With No Apologies." How our God-given rights were turned into government-granted privileges. U.S. Citizens are declared Enemies of the U.S. Government: An examination of the Emergency War Powers Act of 1963. "During World War I (WWI), the U.S. Congress passed the Trading With the Enemy Act (12 USC Sec. 95a, October 6, 1917). This Act was later amended into the Banking Relief Act of March 9, 1933 (Title 12 USC 95 (b); c 1, Title 1, Sec. 48 Stat. 1). By means of that amendment, the United States has been operating under War And Emergency Powers since March 9, 1933. "Under the 1933 Banking Relief Act, the federal government declared the Bank Holiday of March 6, 1933, and relieved the banks from their contractual obligation to the American people of redeeming their Federal Reserve Notes in gold (the Federal Reserve Note originally constituted a warehouse receipt for real gold which the people had placed on deposit with the banks). "The original Trading With the Enemy Act of October 6, 1917, was enacted at a time when the United States was at war with Germany (WWI), and is therefore Constitutional under Article I, Sec. 8, Cl. 11, U.S. Constitution: "'Congress shall have the power to declare War, grant Letters of Margue and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water.' "The amended version (1933) of the original Trading With the Enemy Act (1917) was approved and passed by Congress on March 9, 1933. This amended version was enacted at a time when the United States was not at War with any foreign foe. "Further, the amended version (1933) was radically different from the 1917 version. In 1917, the jurisdiction of the Trading With the Enemy Act excluded all citizens of the United States. However the 1933 version included citizens of the United States under its jurisdiction by adding the following language: "'By any person within the United States of any place subject to the jurisdiction thereof.' "Under the amended version (1933) of the 1917 Act and by operation of law, the American people became the same status as the foreign 'Enemy' of 1917. As such all Americans were therefore subject to regulations, rules, licenses, orders and proclamations issued by the President of the United States or the Secretary of the Treasury since March 9, 1933 (12 USC 95b). "After the American people were declared to be 'enemies,' all legal and commercial intercourse became illegal, and the only way one could do business or any type of legal intercourse was to obtain permission from our government by means of a form of license (by law, a 'license' is a permit to do that which would otherwise be illegal). "As you might expect, our government normally protects the United States by restricting the activities of 'enemies.' For example, we wouldn't expect the federal government to allow communist agents to travel freely or open a business in our country. Nevertheless, there are times when the government might allow members of an 'enemy' nation to travel from New York to Chicago. For example, when athletes of the former Soviet Union came to America, our government granted them special permission ('licenses') to do that (travel) which would otherwise be prohibited for Russian agents. "That our government might 'license' foreigners who might be enemies is unremarkable, but whoever imagined that our own government licensed us for the very same reason? Today, if one wants to travel, one has to have a Driver's license; if one wants to work, one must obtain a license (Social Security Card). It has sometimes been said, one will not be able to buy, sell,or trade without the Mark (Margue--License of Reprisal, Black's Law Dictionary, 5th ed.). "By Executive Order 2039 of March 6, 1933, and Executive Order 2040 of March 9, 1933, the belligerent (now) United States (federal government) acting under the War Power seized title to all gold (lawful, constitutional money), took physical possession of all the money, and left the American people penniless, bankrupt, and without means to lawfully pay their debts. "After the United States had seized title and took physical possession of the people's (lawful) money, the government found it necessary to issue a new form of currency in order for the people to carry on normal business transactions. This new currency was in the form of Federal Reserve Bank Notes (War and Emergency currency), and not Federal Reserve Notes (warehouse receipts for gold). "'This new money will be worth 100 cents on the dollar because it is backed by the credit of the Nation. It will represent a mortgage on all the homes and other property of all the people in the Nation' (Congressional Record, March 19, 1933). "The people were now prohibited from being able to pay their debts at law (i.e., with lawful money/gold) and were forced to mortgage their goods and services to one of the banks or lending institutions in order to obtain Federal Reserve Bank Notes in order to discharge (not lawfully 'pay') their debts. The people now being classified as the 'enemy' also became the captured chattel property of the United States to secure the debt (Federal Reserve Bank Notes). "The governors of the states of the Union capitulated to the demands of President Roosevelt on March 6, 1933 (Roosevelt papers 1933). The former states of the Union became nothing more than political subdivisions or occupied territories of the belligerent corporate United States (Butler v. U.S. Supreme Court, 1936, Public Law 93-549). "The former judicial Courts (Courts of Justice (now took silent judicial notice of the Maritime (International) In Rem jurisdiction, and took the role as Executive Officers (not Judicial) to enforce the Federal and State statutes in all cases whatever. The judges and lawyers in essence became nothing more than executive political hatchet men of their branch of government to enforce public policy statutes enacted by Congress and to enforce performance on this new commercial paper (Federal Reserve Bank Notes) in order to give it some sort of value. "Once the people were declared to be the 'Enemy,' they lost all their unalienable rights under the (unlawfully suspended) Constitution and Bill of Rights. Since 1933, the American people have had no unalienable rights to life, liberty, and property... unless (until) these presumptions are opposed, denied, and rebutted (Remedy--due process--5th and 14th Amendments, Constitution of the United States of America)...." From a transcript of a lawsuit filed July, 1995 to the South Dakota Supreme Court. Congressional Record--Senate November 19, 1973. 37669 CXIX--2373--Part 29
