--- Committee of 300 - Part 6 ---------------------------------------


   He told his DEA interrogators that the Ochoa brothers had
paid Noriega $600,000 to allow three planes loaded with cocaine
to land and refuel in Panama. But once in court in Miami, it soon
became apparent that what was billed as the "star witness" for
the prosecution was at best damp squib. Under cross-examination
the true story emerged: Far from being paid to allow the flights,
Noriega wasn't even approached by the Ochoas. Worse yet, in
December of 1983, Noriega had ordered that all flights to Panama
from Medellin be refused permission to land in Panama. Carlton
is not the only discredited witness.
   One who is even a sorrier liar than Carlton is Carlos Lehder,
who was a kingpin in the Medellin Cartel until he was arrested
in Spain and sent to the U.S. Who gave the DEA the most vital
information that Lehder was in Madrid? The DEA reluctantly
concedes that they owe this important catch to Noriega. Now,
however, the Justice Department is using Lehder as a witness
against Noriega.  If nothing  else,  this  single  witness  demon-
strates the wretchedness of the United States government's case
against Manuel Noriega.
   In return for services rendered, Lehder has been granted an
easing of his sentence and far nicer quarters--a room with a
view and television--and his family was given permanent res-
idence in the U.S. Robert Merkel, a former U.S. attorney who
prosecuted Lehder in 1988 told the Washington Pose "I don't
think the government should be in the business of dealing with
Carlos Lehder, period. This guy is a liar from beginning to end.
   The Justice Department, purely a name which bears no
resemblance to what it is supposed to stand for, has pulled out
all its dirty tricks against Noriega: illegally wire-tapping his
conversations with his lawyer; appointing a government lawyer

                             128

to pretend he was serving Noriega but who quit in the middle of
everything; freezing his bank accounts so that Noriega is unable
to conduct a proper defense; kidnaping, illegal search and seizure.
You name it, the government has broken more laws than Noriega
has ever done--if indeed he has broken any laws at all.
   It is the U.S. Justice Department that is on trial tenfold more
than General Noriega. The Noriega case shows the glaringly
evil system that passes for "justice" in this country. The U.S.
"war on drugs" is on trial as is the Bush Administration's so-
called drug policy. The Noriega trial, although it will end in a
violent and flagrant rape of justice, will nevertheless offer some
compensation to those who are not blind, deaf and dumb. It
proves for once  and for  all  that Britain is in charge of our
government and it will reveal the utterly bankrupt ideology of
the Bush Administration which ought to have as its motto, "No
Matter What, The End Always Justifies The Means. There Are
Very Few Moral Absolutes." Like the majority of politicians, for
Bush to have a standard of ABSOLUTE MORALITY WOULD
BE SUICIDAL. Only in this climate could we have allowed
President Bush to violate at least six United States laws and
DOZENS OF INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS in going to
war against Iraq.
   What we are witnessing in Colombia and Washington is a
complete revision of how the cocaine trade is to be run; no more
wild stuff, no more blazing guns. Let the gentlemen of the Cali
cartel in pin-stripe suits conduct the business in a gentlemanly
way  In short, the Committee of 300 has taken a direct hand in
the cocaine trade which henceforth will go as smoothly as the
heroin trade. The new government of Colombia is geared to the
change in tactics and direction. It is on notice to perform ac-
cording to the Committee's game plan.
   There is need to mention U.S. participation in the China
opium trade which began in the southern United States prior to
the War Between The States. How can we tie the opium trade in
with the great cotton plantations of the South? To do that, we

                             129

have to start in Bengal, India, producers of the finest (if one can
call  such a foul  substance fine) opium which was much  in
demand. Cotton was THE biggest trade in England, after opium
sales through the BEIC.
   Most of the cotton from Southern plantations was worked in
the slave mills of Northern England, where women and children
earned a pittance for a 16-hour day's work. The cloth mills were
owned by  the wealthy  socialites in London, the Barings,
Palmerstons, Keswicks and most of all the Jardine Mathesons
who owned the Blue Star Shipping Line, on which the finished
cotton cloth goods were shipped to India. They could care less
about the hapless conditions endured by Her Majesty's subject.
After all, that is what they were for, and their husbands and sons
were useful for fighting wars to preserve Her Majesty's far-
flung empire as they had done for centuries, and latterly, in the
bloody Boer War. That was British tradition, wasn't it?
    Cotton cloth finished goods exported to India undercut and
destroyed the long-standing Indian producers of cotton finished
goods trade.  Terrible privation  was endured by thousands of
Indians thrown out of work as a result of cheaper British goods
taking over their markets. India then became utterly dependent
upon Britain to earn enough currency to pay for its railroads and
finished cotton goods imports. There was only one solution to
India's economic woes. Produce more opium and sell it for less
to the  British East India Company. This was the rock upon
which  British trade  grew and flourished. Without its opium
trade, Britain would have been as bankrupt.
   Did the Southern plantation owners know about the ugly
secret of opium-for-cotton goods? It is unlikely that some of
them didn't know what was going on. Take, for instance, the
Sutherland family, one of the largest cotton plantation owners in
the South. The Sutherlands were closely related to the Matheson
family--Jardine Matheson--who in turn had as their business
partners the Baring Brothers, founders of the famous Peninsular
and Orient Navigation Line (P&O), the largest of Britain's many

                             130

merchant shipping lines.
   The Barings were big investors in Southern plantations as
they were in the U.S. Clipper ships which plowed through the
seas between Chinese ports and all the important ports along the
eastern seaboard of the United States. Today the Barings run a
number of very substantial financial operations in the United
States. All of those names mentioned were, and their descen-
dants still are, members of the Committee of 300.
   The majority of families who go to make up the Eastern
Liberal Establishment, among whom are the wealthiest to be
found in this country, derived their fortunes from either the
cotton trade or the opium trade and in some instances from both.
Of these the Lehmans are an outstanding example. When it
comes to fortunes made solely from the China opium trade, the
first names that come to mind are the Astors and the Delanos.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt's wife was a Delano.
   John Jacob Astor made a huge fortune out of the China
opium trade and then he went respectable by buying up large
tracts of Manhattan real estate with his dirty money. During his
lifetime Astor played  a  big role  in  the  Committee  of 300s'
deliberations. In fact, it was the Committee of 300 who chose
who would be allowed to participate in the fabulously lucrative
China opium trade, through its monopolist BEIC, and the ben-
eficiaries of their largess remained forever wedded to the Com-
mittee of 300.
   That is why, as we shall discover, most real estate in Man-
hattan belongs to various Committee members, even as it has
since the days when Astor began buying it up. With the benefit
of access to records that would be closed to others outside of
British intelligence, I discovered that Astor had long been an
asset of British intelligence in the United States. Astor's financing
of Aaron Burr, the murderer of Alexander Hamilton, proves the
point beyond any reasonable doubt.
  John Jacob Astor's son, Waldorf Astor, had the additional
honor bestowed upon him of being appointed to the Royal

                             131

Institute for International Affairs (RIIA), through which organi-
zation the Committee of 300 controls every facet of our lives in
the United States. The Astor family is believed to have selected
Owen Lattimore to carry  on their association with the opium
trade which he did through the Laura Spelman-funded Institute
for Pacific Relations (IPR). It was the IPR that oversaw China's
entry into the opium trade as an equal partner and not merely as
a supplier. It was IPR that paved the way for the Japanese attack
on Pearl  Harbor. Attempts  to turn the Japanese  into  opium
addicts met with dismal failure.
   By the turn of the century the oligarchical plutocrats  of
Britain were like overgorged vultures on the Serengeti Plain at
the time of the annual Wildebeest march. Their income from the
China opium trade exceeded David Rockefeller's income by
SEVERAL BILLION DOLLARS PER ANNUM. Historic
records made available to me in the British Museum in London
and from India Office and other sources--former colleagues in
well-placed positions, proves this completely.
   By 1905, the Chinese government, deeply concerned about
the rise in the number of opium addicts in China, tried to get
help  from the  international  community.  Britain pretended to
cooperate, but made no move whatsoever to abide by the 1905
protocols it had signed. Later Her Majesty's government did an
about-face after showing China that it was better to join them in
the opium business rather than to try and end it.
   Even The Hague Convention was scoffed at by the British.
Delegates to the convention had agreed that Britain must abide
by the protocols it had signed, which was to drastically reduce
the amount of opium sold in China and elsewhere. The British,
while paying lip service, had no intention of giving up their
trade in human misery, which included the so-called "pig trade."
   Their servant, President George Bush, in prosecution of the
cruel war of genocide waged against the Iraqi nation SOLELY
for and on behalf of British interests, likewise showed his
contempt by flouting the Hague Agreement on Aerial Bombard-

                             132

ment, and a whole slew of international conventions to which the
U.S. is a signatory, including ALL of the Geneva Conventions.
   When evidence was produced two years later, notably by the
Japanese,  who  were  growing  very  concerned  about  British
smuggling of opium into their country, that opium sales had
increased instead of decreased, then Her Majesty's delegate to
the Fifth Hague Convention produced a set of statistics which
were  at  variance  with those provided by Japan.  The  British
delegate turned the tables by saying that it made a very strong
case for legalizing the sale of opium which would have the
effect of doing away with what he called "the black market."
   He suggested on behalf of Her Majesty's government that
the Japanese government would then have a monopoly and full
control of the trade. THIS IS PRECISELY THE SAME ARGU-
MENT BEING ADVANCED BY THE FRONT MEN FOR
THE BRONFMANS AND OTHER BIG-TIME DOPE DEAL-
ERS--LEGALIZE COCAINE, MARIJUANA AND HEROIN,
LET THE U.S GOVERNMENT HAVE THE MONOPOLY
AND THEREBY STOP WASTING BILLIONS ON THE
PHONY WAR ON DRUGS AND SAVE THE TAXPAYERS
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
   In the period of 1791-1894, the number of licensed opium
dens in the Shanghai International Settlement rose from 87 to
663. Opium flowing into the United States was also stepped up.
Sensing that they might have some problems in China with the
spotlight of world concern shining upon them, the plutocrats of
the Knights of St. John and the Order of the Garter, transferred
some of their attention to Persia (Iran).
  Lord Inchcape, who founded the biggest steamship company
in the world at the turn of the  19th century, the legendary
Peninsula and Orient Steam Navigation Company,  was the
principal mover and shaker in establishing the Hong Kong and
Shanghai Bank, which remains the largest and least controlled
clearinghouse bank for the opium trade, which also financed the
"pig trade" with the United States.

                             133

   The British had set up a scam whereby Chinese "coolies"
were sent to the U.S. as so-called indentured laborers. The
rapacious Harriman family's railroad needed "coolies" to push
the rail connection westward to the California coast, or so they
said. Strangely enough, very few Negroes were given the manual
labor jobs they were used to at that time and could have done a
better job than the emaciated opium addicts who arrived from
China.
   The problem was that there was no market for opium among
the Negroes and, moreover, Lord Inchcape, son of the founder
of P and O needed the "coolies" to smuggle in thousands of
pounds of raw opium into North America, something the Negroes
could not do. It was the same Lord Inchcape who in  1923
warned that there must be no diminishing of opium poppy
cultivation in Bengal. "This most important source of revenue
must be safeguarded," he told the commission allegedly inves-
tigating the production of opium gum in India.
    By 1846, some 120,000 "coolies" had already arrived in the
U.S. to work on Harriman's railroad pushing westward. The
"pig trade" was in full profitable swing because, of this number,
it was estimated by the U.S. government 115,000 were opium
addicts. Once the railroad was finished, the Chinese did not go
back to where they came from, but settled in San Francisco, Los
Angeles, Vancouver and Portland. They created a huge culture
problem that has never ceased to exist.
   It is interesting to note that Cecil John Rhodes, a Committee
of 300 member who fronted for the Rothschilds in South Africa
followed the Inchcape pattern, bringing hundreds of thousand of
Indian "coolies" to work on the sugar cane plantations in Natal
province. Among them was Mahatma Ghandi, a Communist
agitator and troublemaker. Like the Chinese coolies, they were
not  returned  to  their  country  of origin  once  their  contracts
expired. They, too, went on to create a massive social program,
and their descendants became lawyers  who  spearheaded the
drive  to  infiltrate  the  government  on behalf of the  Africa

                             134

National Congress.
    By 1875 the Chinese "coolies" operating out of San Francisco
had set up an opium supply ring that resulted in 129,000 American
opium addicts. What with the known 115,000 Chinese addicts,
Lord Inchcape and his family were raking in hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars a year from this source alone which, in terms of
today's dollar would represent at least a $100 million dollar
income every year.
   The  very  same  British and American families  who  had
combined to wreck the Indian textile industry in the promotion
of the opium trade, and who brought African slaves to the U.S.
combined to make the "pig trade" a valuable source of revenue.
Later they were to combine to cause and promote the terrible
War Between The States, also known as the American Civil War.
   The decadent American families of the unholy partnership,
thoroughly corrupted and wallowing in filthy lucre, went on to
become what we know today as the Eastern Liberal Establishmemt
whose members, under the careful guidance and direction of the
Crown and subsequently its foreign policy executive arm, the
Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA), ran this coun-
ry--and still does--from top to bottom through their secret
upper-level, parallel government, which is tightly meshed with
the Committee of 300, the ULTIMATE secret society.
   By 1923, voices were being raised against this menace that
had been allowed to be imported into the United States. Believ-
ing the United States to be a free and sovereign nation, Con-
gressman Stephen Porter, Chairman of the House of Represen-
tatives Foreign Affairs Committee, introduced a bill which called
for the British to account for their opium export-import business
on a country-by-country basis. The resolution set up quotas for
each country, which if observed, would have reduced the opium
made by lO%. The resolution was passed into law and the bill
accepted by the Congress of the United States.
   But the Royal Institute of International Affairs had other
ideas. Founded in 1919 in the wake of the Paris Peace Conference

                             135

held at Versailles, this was one of the earliest "foreign policy"
executors of the Committee of 300. Research I have done on the
Congressional Records,  House,  show that Porter was totally
unaware of the powerful forces he was up against. Porter was
not even aware of the existence of the RIIA, much less that its
specific purpose was to control every facet of the United States.
   Apparently Congressman Porter received some kind of an
intimation from the Morgan Bank on Wall Street that he should
drop the whole affair. Instead, an enraged Porter took his case to
the League of Nations Opium Committee. Porter's total un-
awareness of who he was up against is demonstrated in some of
his correspondence to colleagues on the House Foreign Affairs
Committee in response to open British opposition to his proposals.
   Her Majesty's representative chided Porter and then, acting
like a father toward an errant son, the British delegate--on
instructions from the RIIA--presented Her Majesty's proposals
to INCREASE opium quotas to account for an increase in the
consumption of opium for medicinal purposes. According to
documents that I was able to find in The Hague, Porter was at
first confused, then amazed and then enraged. Joined by the
Chinese  delegate,  Porter  stormed  out  of the  plenipotentiary
session of the Committee session, leaving the field to the British.
   In his absence, the British delegate got the League to rubber
stamp Her Majesty's government proposals for a creation of a
tame-tiger Central Narcotics Board, whose chief function was
information gathering, the terms of which were purposely vague.
What was to be done with the "information" was never made
clear. Porter returned to the U.S. a shaken and much wiser man.
   Another British intelligence asset was the fabulously rich
William Bingham, into which family one of the Barings married.
It was stated in papers and documents that I saw that the Baring
Brothers ran the Philadelphia Quakers and owned half of the
real estate of that city, all made possible because of the fortune
the Baring Brothers had amassed from the China opium trade.
Another beneficiary of the Committee of 300's largess  was

                              136

Stephen Girard, whose descendants inherited the Girard Bank
and Trust.
   The names of the families, whose history is intertwined with
that of Boston and who would never give us ordinary folk the
time of day, were wrapped in the arms of the Committee of 300
and its vastly lucrative BEIC China opium trade. Many of the
famous families became associated with the notorious Hong
Kong and Shanghai Bank which is still the clearing house for
billions of dollars that flow from the opium trade in China.
   Such famous names as Forbes, Perkins and Hathaway ap-
pear in the records of the British East India Company. These
genuine American "bluebloods" created Russell and Company,
whose main trade was in opium, but also ran other shipping
enterprises  from  China to South America and all points in
between. As a reward for their services to the British Crown and
the BEIC, the Committee of 300 granted them a monopoly in the
slave trade in 1833.
   Boston owes its celebrated past to the cotton-opium-slave
trade granted to it by the Committee of 300 and it is stated in the
records I was privileged to see in London that Boston's merchant
families were the chief supporters of the British Crown in the
United States. John Murray Forbes is mentioned as the major-
domo of the "Boston Blue Bloods" in India House records and
in bank records in Hong Kong.
   Forbe's son was the first American allowed by the Commit-
tee of 300 to sit on the board of the most prestigious drug bank in
the world--even today--the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank.
When I was in Hong Kong in the early 1960's as "an historian
interested in the British East India Company," I was shown
some old records, including past board members of this notori-
ous drug bank, and sure enough, Forbes' name was among them.
   The Perkins family,  so illustrious that their name is still
mentioned in awed whispers, were deeply involved in the ne-
farious filthy China opium trade. In fact Perkins the elder was
one of the first Americans to be elected to the Committee of 3OO.

                              137

His son, Thomas Nelson, was Morgan's man in Boston,
and as such also an agent for British intelligence. His unsavory--
I would say disgusting--past was not in question when he richly
endowed Harvard University. After all, Canton and Tientsin are
a long way from Boston, and who would have cared anyway?
   What helped The Perkinses a lot was that Morgan was a
powerful  member of the  Committee  of 300, which enabled
Thomas N. Perkins to rapidly further his career in the China
opium trade. All the Morgans and Perkinses were Freemasons,
which was another tie that bound them together, for only Free-
masons of highest rank have any hope of being selected by the
Committee of 300. Sir Robert Hart, who for almost three decades
was chief of the Imperial Chinese Customs Service (read the
British Crown's number one agent in the opium trade in China
was subsequently appointed to the board of Morgan Guarantee
Bank's Far Eastern Division.
   Through  access  to the historical records  in London  and
Hong Kong, I was able to establish that Sir Robert developed an
intimate  relationship  with  Morgan  operations  in  the  United
States. It is worthy of note that Morgan interests in the opium/
heroin trade have continued in an unbroken line; witness the
fact that David Newbigging is on the advisory board of Morgan's
Hong Kong operation run in conjunction with Jardine Matheson.
   To those who know Hong Kong, the name of Newbigging
will be familiar as the most powerful name in Hong Kong. In
addition to his membership of Morgan's elite bank, Newbigging
doubles as an advisor to the Chinese government. Opium for
missile technology, opium for gold, opium for high-tech com-
puters--it is all the same to Newbigging. The way these banks
financial houses, trading companies and the families who run
them  are  intertwined  would perplex  Sherlock  Holmes,  yet
somehow they must be unraveled and followed if we are to
understand  their  connections  with  the  drug trade and their
membership in the Committee of 300.
   The two-track entry into the United States of alcohol and

                              138

drugs were products of the same stable occupied by the same
thoroughbreds. First, prohibition had to be introduced into the
United States. This was done by the British East India Company
heirs  who,  acting upon experience gained through the  well-
documented China Inland Mission records found in India House,
set up the Women's Christian Temperance Union, supposedly to
oppose consumption of alcohol in America.
    We say that history repeats itself, and in a sense, this is true.
except that it repeats itself in an ever-upward spiral. Today we
find that some of the largest companies, allegedly "polluting"
the earth, are the largest contributors of funds to the environ-
mentalist movement. The "big names" send forth their message.
Prince Philip is one of their heroes, yet his son Prince Charles
owns  a million  acres  of forested land in Wales from which
timber is regularly harvested and, in addition, Prince Charles is
one of the largest owners of slum housing in London, where
pollution thrives.
   In the case of those who railed against the "evils of drink,"
we find they were financed by the Astors, the Rockefellers, the
Spelmans, the Vanderbilts and the Warburgs who had a vested
interest in the liquor trade. On the instructions of the Crown,
Lord Beaverbrook came over from England to tell these wealthy
American families that they were to invest in the WCTU. (It was
the same Lord Beaverbrook who came to Washington in 1940
and ORDERED Roosevelt to get involved in Britain's war.)
  Roosevelt complied by stationing a U.S. Navy flotilla in
Greenland that spent the 9 months prior to Pearl Harbor hunting
and attacking German U-Boats.  Like his  successor,  George
Bush, Roosevelt thought the Congress a confounded nuisance
so, acting like a king-- sense he felt strongly since he is related
to the British royal family--FDR never sought the permission of
Congress for his illegal action. This is what the British are most
fond of referring to as their "special relationship with America."
  The drug trade has a connection with the murder of Presi-
dent  John  F.  Kennedy,  which  foul  deed  stains  the  national

                              139

character and will continue to do so until the perpetrators are
found and brought to justice. There is proof that the Mafia was
involved in this through the CIA, which brings to mind that it all
started with the old Meyer Lansky network which evolved into
the Irgun terrorist organization, and Lansky proved to be one of
the best vehicles for peddling cultural warfare against the West.
   Lansky  was, through more respectable fronts,  associated
with  the  British  higher-ups  in  bringing  gambling  and  dope
distribution to Paradise Island in the Bahamas under the cover
of The Mary Carter Paint Company--a joint Lansky-British
M16 venture. Lord Sassoon was later murdered because he was
skimming money and was threatening to blow the whistle if he
was punished. Ray Wolfe was more presentable, representing
the Bronfmans of Canada. While the Bronfmans were not privy
to Churchill's massive Nova Scotia Project, they were and still
are nevertheless an important asset of the British royal family in
the business of dope peddling.
   Sam Rothberg, close associate of Meyer Lansky, also worked
with Tibor Rosenbaum and Pinchas Sapir, all king pins in the
Lansky drug ring. Rosenbaum ran a drug money laundering
operation out of Switzerland through a bank he established for
this purpose; Banque du Credite International. The bank quickly
expanded its activities and became the principal bank used by
Lansky and his mobster associates for laundering money garnered
from prostitution, drugs and other Mafia rackets.
   It is worthy of note that Tibor Rosenbaum's bank was used
by  the  shadowy  chief of British  Intelligence,  Sir  William
Stephenson,  whose right hand man,  Major John  Mortimer
Bloomfield, a Canadian citizen, ran Division Five of the FBI
throughout the Second World War. Stephenson was an early
member  of the  2Oth  century  Committee  of 300,  although
Bloomfield never made it that far. As I revealed in my series of
monographs on the Kennedy assassination, it was Stephenson
who master-minded the operation which was run as a hands-on
project by Bloomfield. Fronting for the Kennedy assassination

                              140

was done through another drug-related front, Permanent Indus-
trial Expositions (PERMINDEX), created in 1957 and centered
in the World Trade Mart building in downtown New Orleans.
   Bloomfield just happened to be the attorney for the Bronfman
family. The World Trade Mart was created by Colonel Clay
Shaw and FBI Division Five station chief in New Orleans, Guy
Bannister. Shaw and Bannister were close associates of Lee
Harvey Oswald, accused of shooting Kennedy, who was mur-
dered by CIA contract agent Jack Ruby before he could prove
that he was not the assassin who shot President Kennedy. In
spite of the Warren Commission and numerous official reports,
it has NEVER been established that Oswald owned  the
Mannlicher rifle said to be the murder weapon (it was not) nor
that he had ever fired it. The connection between the drug trade,
Shaw, Bannister and Bloomfield has been established several
times, and need not concern us here.
   In the immediate post-WW II period, one of the most com-
mon methods  used by Resorts  International  and other drug
related companies to clean money was by courier service to a
money laundering bank. Now all that has changed. Only the
small fry still use such a risky method. The "big fish" conduit
their money via the CHIPS system, an acronym for Clearing
House  International Payments  System, run by  a Burroughs
computer system centered at the New York Clearing House.
Twelve of the largest banks use this system. One of them is the
Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank. Another is Credite Suisse, that
oh so respectable paragon of virtue in banking--until the lid is
lifted.  Combined with the  SWIFT system based in Virginia,
dirty drug money becomes invisible. Only wanton carelessness
results in the FBI getting lucky now and then, if and when it is
told not to look the other way.
  Only low echelon drug dealers get caught with drug money
in their hands. The elite, Drexel Burnham, Credite Suisse, Hong
Kong and Shanghai Bank, escape detection. But this, too, is
changing with the collapse of Bank of Credit and Commerce

                              141

International (BCCI) which is  likely to expose  a great deal
about the drug trade if ever a proper investigation is carried out.
   One of the largest assets in the portfolio of the Committee of
300 companies is American Express (AMEX). Its presidents
regularly occupy positions on the Committee of 300. I first got
interested in Amex when I was carrying out an on-the-spot
investigation that led me to the Trade Development Bank in
Geneva. Later, this got me into a lot of trouble. I discovered that
Trade Development Bank, then run by Edmund Safra, key man
in the gold for opium trade, was supplying tons of gold to the
Hong Kong market via Trade Development Bank.
   Before going to Switzerland, I went to Pretoria, South Africa,
where  I talked with Dr.  Chris  Stals, at that time the deputy
governor of the South African Reserve Bank which controls all
bulk dealings  in  South African-produced gold. After several
discussions over a period of a week, I was told that the bank
could  not  supply  me  with  the  ten  tons of gold that I was
authorized to buy on behalf of clients I was supposed to be
representing. My friends in the right places knew how to produce
the documentation which passed without question.
   The Reserve Bank referred me to a Swiss company whom I
cannot name, because it would blow cover. I was also given the
address of Trade Development Bank in Geneva. The purpose of
my exercise was to find out the mechanics of how gold is moved
and traded, and secondly to test bogus documents which had been
prepared for me by ex-intelligence friends of mine who special-
ized in this kind of thing. Remember "M" in the "James Bond"
series? Let me assure you that "M" does exist, only his correct
initial is "C." The documents I had consisted of "buying orders"
from Liechtenstein companies with supporting papers to match.
   On approaching Trade Development Bank I was at first
greeted cordially but, as discussions progressed with more and
more suspicion until, when I felt it was no longer safe for me to
visit the bank, without telling anyone at the bank I left Geneva.
Later the bank was sold to American Express. American Express

                              142

was  briefly  investigated by  former Attorney  General  Edwin
Meese, after which he was quickly removed from office and
labeled "corrupt." What I found was that American Express was
and still is a conduit for laundering drug money and, thus far, no
one has been able to explain to me why a private company has
the right to print dollars--aren't American Express travelers
checks dollars? I subsequently exposed the Safra-Amex drug
connections which upset a lot of people, as can be imagined.
  Committee of 300 member Japhet controls Charterhouse
Japhet, which in turn controls Jardine Matheson as a direct link
to  the  Hong  Kong  opium trade.  The Japhets  are  reportedly
English Quakers. The Matheson family, also members of the
Committee of 300, were kingpins in the China opium trade, at
least up until 1943. The Mathesons have appeared in the Queen
of England Honors List since the early 19th century.
   The top controllers of the drug trade in the Committee of
300 have no conscience about the millions of lives they ruin
each year. They are Gnostics, Cathars, members of the cult of
Dionysus,  Osiris,  or worse.  To them,  "ordinary"  people  are
there to be used for their purposes. Their high-priests, Bulwer-
Lytton and Aldous Huxley, preached the gospel of drugs as a
beneficial substance. To quote Huxley:

   "And for private everyday use, there have always been
   chemical  intoxicants. All  the vegetable  sedatives  and
   narcotics, all the euphorics that grow on trees, the hal-
   lucinogens  that ripen in berries, have been used by
   humans since time immemorial. And to these modifiers
   of conscience, modern science has added its quota of
   synthetics. For unrestricted use the West has permitted
   only alcohol and tobacco. All other chemical Doors in
   the Wall are labeled DOPE."

   To the oligarches and plutocrats of the Committee of 300,
drugs have a two-fold purpose, firstly to bring in colossal sums

                              143

 of money and secondly, to eventually turn a major part of the
population into mindless drug zombies who will be easier to
control than people who don't need drugs, as punishment for
rebellion will mean withholding of supplies of heroin, cocaine,
marijuana, etc. For this it is necessary to legalize drugs so that a
MONOPOLY SYSTEM, which has been readied for introduc-
tion once severe economic conditions, of which the 1991 de-
pression is the forerunner, cause drug usage to proliferate as
hundreds of thousands of permanently jobless workers turn to
drugs for solace.
    In  one  of the  Royal Institute of International Affairs top
secret papers, the scenario is laid out as follows (in part):

   "...having been failed by Christianity, and with unem-
   ployment on every hand, those who have been without
   jobs for five years or more will turn  away from the
   church and seek solace in drugs. That is when full con-
   trol of the drug trade must be completed in order that the
   governments of all countries who are under our juris-
   diction will have a MONOPOLY which we will control
   through supply.... Drug bars will take care of the unruly
   and  the  discontent,  would  be  revolutionaries  will  be
   turned into harmless addicts with no will of their own...."

   There is ample evidence that the CIA and British intelli-
gence,  specially  M16,  have  already  spent at least  a  decade
working toward this goal.
    The Royal Institute of International Affairs used the life-
time work of Aldous Huxley and Bulwer-Lytton as its blueprint
to bring about a state where mankind will no longer have wills
of their own in the One World Government-New World Order of
the fast-approaching New Dark Age. Again, let us see what high
priest Aldous Huxley had to say about this:

   "In many societies at many levels of civilization, attempts

                              144

   have been made to fuse drug intoxication with God
   intoxication. In ancient Greece, for example, ethyl alcohol
   had  its  place  in  the  established  religions.  Dionysus,
   Bacchus, as he was often called, was a true divinity.
   Complete prohibition of chemical changes can be decreed
   but cannot be enforced. (THE LANGUAGE OF THE
   PRO-DRUG LOBBY ON CAPITOL HILL.)

   "Now let us consider another type of drug--still undis-
   covered, but probably just around the corner--a drug
   making people happy in situations where they would
   normally feel miserable. (Is there anyone more miserable
   than a person who has sought and been unable to find
   work?) Such a drug would be a blessing, but a blessing
   fraught with grave social and political dangers. By making
   a harmless chemical euphoria freely available, a dictator
   (read  Committee  of 300)  could  reconcile  an  entire
   population to a state of affairs to which self-respecting
   human beings ought not to be reconciled."

   Quite a dialectical masterpiece. What Huxley was advocat-
ing and which is official policy of the Committee of 300 and its
surrogate, RIIA, can be quite simply stated as mass mind control.
As I have often said, all wars are wars for the souls of mankind.
Thus far it has not dawned on us that the drug trade is irregular
low-intensity  warfare against the  whole human race of free
men.  Irregular warfare is the most terrible form of warfare
which, while it has a beginning, has no ending.
   Some will question the involvement of the British royal
families, past and present, in the drug trade. To see it in print
appears on the surface to be preposterous, and it is being seen in
print more often these days  to  make  it  appear  exactly  that,
preposterous. The oldest maxim in the intelligence business is,
"If you want to hide something, put it where everyone can see it.
   F. S. Turner's book, "BRITISH OPIUM POLICY," pub-

                              145

lished in 1876, shows how the British monarchy and its hang-
ers-on family relatives were deeply involved in the opium trade.
Turner was the secretary of the Anglo Oriental Society of the
Suppression of the Opium Trade. He declined to be silenced by
Crown spokesperson Sir R. Temple. Turner stated that the gov-
ernment, and therefore the Crown, had to withdraw from the
opium monopoly, "and if it takes any revenues at all, take only
that which  accrues  from taxation honestly  meant  to have a
restrictive force. "
   Turner was answered by a spokesman for the monarchy,
Lord Lawrence, who fought against the BEIC losing its mo-
nopoly. "It would be desirable to get rid of the monopoly, but I
myself am disinclined to  be  the  agent of change.  If it  is
question of moderate loss that we could afford, I would not
hesitate to undertake it." (Taken from the Calcutta Papers 1870.)
   By  1874  the  war against the British monarchy  and  the
aristocracy over its deep involvement in the China opium trade
was  getting heated.  The  Society for the  Suppression of the
Opium Trade violently assailed the aristocracy of the day and
pressed home its attacks in a fearless manner we would do well
to emulate. The society said that the Treaty of Tientsin, which
Forced China to accept the importation of enormous amounts of
opium, was a dastardly crime against the Chinese people.
   There arose a mighty warrior, Joseph Grundy Alexander, a
barrister by profession who, in 1866, led a strong attack on
British Crown opium policy in China in which he openly men-
tioned the involvement of the royal family and the aristocracy.
For the first time Alexander brought India, "the Jewel in the
Crown," into the picture. He laid the blame squarely where it
belonged, on the monarchy, the so-called aristocracy and its
servants in the British government.
   Under the direction of Alexander, the society committed
itself to the total destruction of the cultivation of opium poppies
in Bengal, India. Alexander proved to be a doughty opponent.
Through his leadership, the drug aristocracy began to falter and,

                              146

in the face of his open denouncements of the royal family and its
hangers-on, several Members of Parliament began siding with
him   Conservatives, Unionists, Labor. Alexander made it clear
that the drug trade was not a party political issue; it was for all
parties to join together in helping to eradicate the menace.
   Lord  Kimberly,  spokesman for the royal  family  and the
entrenched oligarchists, threatened that any attempts to interfere
with what he called "the commerce of the nation will run into
serious opposition from the cabinet." Alexander and his society
pressed on in the face of innumerable threats and finally parlia-
ment agreed to appoint a Royal Commission to enquire into the
opium trade, with Lord Kimberly, who was Secretary of India,
as its chairman. A more inappropriate person to head the com-
mission could not have been found. It was akin to Dulles being
appointed to the Warren Commission.
   In his first statement, Lord Kimberly made it clear that he
would rather resign from his august position than consent to a
resolution that would surrender Indian Opium Revenues.  It is
worthy of note that "Indian Opium Revenue" implied money
shared by the nation. Like the idea that the people of South
Africa share in the enormous profits from the sale of gold and
diamonds, this was just not the case. Indian opium revenues
went straight into  the royal coffers and the pockets of the
nobility  and  the  oligarchists  and plutocrats, and made them
billionaires.
  Rowntree's book, "THE IMPERIAL DRUG TRADE" gives
a fascinating account of how Prime Minister Gladstone and his
fellow plutocrats lied, cheated, twisted and turned to keep the
astonishing truth of the involvement of the British monarchy in
the opium trade from being exposed. Rowntree's book is a
treasure house of information on the deep involvement of the
British royal family and the lords and ladies of England and the
huge fortunes they accumulated from the misery of the Chinese
opium addicts.
   Lord Kimberly, secretary of the commission of inquiry, was

                              147

himself deeply involved in the opium trade so he did everything
in his power to close the proceedings to all who sought the truth.
Finally, under a great deal of pressure from the public, the Royal
Commission was forced to open the door to this inquiry just a
crack, so that it became apparent that the highest in the land
were running the opium trade and receiving huge benefits from
it. But the door was quickly slammed shut again, and the Royal
Commission called no expert witnesses, thereafter sitting for an
absurdly short period of time. The commission was nothing but
a farce and a cover-up, such as we have become accustomed to
in 20th century America.
   The Eastern Liberal Establishment families of the United
States were just as deeply involved in the China opium trade as
were the British, indeed they still are. Witness recent history
when James Earl Carter toppled the Shah of Iran. Why was the
Shah deposed and then murdered by the United States govern-
ment? fn a word, because of DRUGS. The Shah had clamped
down and virtually put an end to the immensely lucrative opium
trade being conducted out of Iran by the British. At the time that
the  Shah  took  over in  Iran, there were already one million
opium/heroin addicts.
   This the British would not tolerate, so they sent the United
States to do their dirty work for them in terms of the "special
relationship" between the two countries. When Khomeini took
over the U.S. Embassy in Teheran, arms sales by the United
States, which had begun with the Shah, were not discontinued.
Why not? Had the United States done so, Khomeini would have
canceled the British monopoly of the opium trade in his country.
To prove the point, after 1984, Khomeini's liberal attitude toward
opium had increased the number of addicts to 2 million, according
to United Nations and World Health Organization statistics.
   Both President Carter and his successor, Ronald Reagan,
willingly and with full knowledge of what was at stake, went on
supplying arms to Iran even while American hostages languished
in captivity. In 1980 I wrote a monograph under the title, "What

                              148

Really Happened in Iran," which set out the facts. The arms
trade with Iran was sealed at a meeting between Cyrus Vance, a
servant of the  Committee  of 300,  and Dr.  Hashemi,  which
resulted in the U.S. Air Force beginning an immediate airlift of
arms to Iran, carried on even at the height of the hostage crisis
the arms came from U.S. Army stockpiles in Germany and
some were even flown directly from the United States with
refueling stops at the Azores.
   With the advent of Khomeini, who was put in power in Iran
by the Committee of 300, opium production skyrocketed. By
1984 Iran's opium production exceeded 650 metric tons of
opium per annum. What Carter and Reagan did was ensure that
there was no further interference in the opium trade and they
carried out the mandate given to them by the oligarchical fami-
lies in Britain in this connection. Iran presently rivals the Golden
Triangle in the volume of opium produced.
   The Shah was not the only victim of the Committee of 300
William Buckley, CIA station chief in Beirut, in all his lack of
experience on who is behind the opium trade, began conducting
investigations in Iran, Lebanon and even spent time in Pakistan.
From Islamabad, Buckley began sending back damning reports
to the CIA in Langley about the burgeoning opium trade in the
Golden Crescent and Pakistan. The U.S. Embassy in Islamabad
was firebombed, but Buckley escaped the mob attack and re-
turned to Washington because his cover was blown by forces
unknown.
  Then a very strange thing happened. Contrary to all proce-
dures laid down by the CIA when an agent's cover has been
blown, Buckley was sent back to Beirut. Buckley was in effect
sentenced to death by the CIA in order to silence him, and this
time the sentence was carried out. William Buckley was kidnaped
by agents of the Committee of 300. Under brutal interrogation
by  General  Mohammed el  Khouili of Syrian  intelligence to
force him to disclose the names of all field officers of the DEA
in  these  countries, he was brutally murdered. His efforts to

                              149

expose the huge opium trade developing out of Pakistan, Leba-
non and Iran cost Buckley his life.
   If the  remaining  free  men  in  this  world  believe  that
singlehandedly  or in  small  groups they can smash the  drug
trade, they are sorely mistaken. They could cut off the tentacles
of the opium and cocaine trade here and there, but never the
head. The crowned cobras of Europe and their Eastern Liberal
Establishment family will not tolerate it.  The war on drugs
which the Bush administration is allegedly fighting, but which it
is not, is for TOTAL legalization of ALL types and classes of
drugs. Such drugs are not solely a social aberration, but a full-
scale attempt to gain control of the minds of the people of this
planet, or as the "Aquarian Conspiracy" authors put it, "to bring
about radical  changes  in the  United  States."  THIS  IS  THE
PRINCIPAL TASK OF THE COMMITTEE OF 300, THE
ULTIMATE SECRET SOCIETY.
   Nothing has changed in the opium-heroin-cocaine trade. It
is still run by the same "upper class" families in Britain and the
United States. It is still a fabulously profitable trade where what
seem to be big losses through seizures by the authorities are
written off in paneled boardrooms in New York, Hong Kong and
London over port and cigars as "merely  the  cost  of doing
business, old boy."
   British colonial capitalism has always been the mainstay of
the oligarchical feudal system of privilege in England and remains
so to the present day. When the poor, untutored pastoral people
in South Africa who became known as the Boers fell into the
bloodstained hands of the British aristocracy in 1899, they had
no idea that the revoltingly cruel war so relentlessly pursued by
Queen  Victoria,  was  financed by  the  incredible  amounts  of
money which came from the "instant fortunes" of the BEIC
opium trade in China into the pockets of the plutocrats.
  Committee of 300 members Cecil John Rhodes, Barney
Barnato  and Alfred Beit instigated and engineered the war.
Rhodes was the principle agent for the Rothschilds, whose

                              150

banks were awash in cash flowing from the opium trade.
These robbers, thieves and liars--Rhodes, Barnato,
Oppenheimer, Joel and Beit--dispossessed the South African
Boers of their birthright, the gold and diamonds that lay beneath
their soil. The South African Boers received nothing out of the
BILLIONS UPON BILLIONS of dollars derived from the sale
of THEIR gold and diamonds.
   The Committee of 300 quickly took full control of these vast
treasures, control which it even now maintains through one of
its members, Sir Harry Oppenheimer. The average South African
receives $100 per annum per capita from the gold and diamond
industry. The BILLIONS which flow out annually go to the
bankers of the Committee of 300. It is one of the most foul and
vile  stories  of greed, theft and the murder of a nation ever
recorded in the annals of history.
   How could the British Crown have succeeded in pulling off
this stunning fraud of gigantic proportion? To accomplish such
a Herculean task requires skilled organizing with devoted agents-
in-place to carry out the daily instructions passed down from the
conspirators' hierarchy. The first step was a press propaganda
campaign portraying the Boers as uncivilized barbarians, only
slightly human, who were denying British citizens the right to
vote in the Boer Republic. Then, demands were made on Paul
Kruger, leader of the Transvaal Republic, which of course could
not  be  met. After that, a series of incidents were staged to
provoke the Boers into retaliation, but that didn't work either.
Then came the infamous Jameson Raid where a certain Jameson
led a party of several hundred armed men in an attack on the
transvaal. War followed immediately thereafter.
  Queen Victoria mounted the largest and best equipped army
that the world had ever seen at that time ( 1898). Victoria thought
he war would be over in two weeks, since the Boers had no
standing army and no trained militia and would be no match for
her 400,000  soldiers  drawn  from  the  ranks  of Britain's
underclasses.  The Boers  never numbered more than  80,000

                              151

farmers and their sons--some were as young as fourteen--
Rudyard Kipling also thought the war would be over in less than
a week.
   Instead, with rifle in one hand and the Bible in the other, the
Boers held out for three years. "We went to South Africa think-
ing the war would be over in a week," said Kipling. "Instead, the
Boers taught us no end of a lesson." That same "lesson" could
be taught to the Committee of 300 today if we could but muster
10,000 leaders, good men and true to lead this nation in battle
against the gargantuan monster threatening to devour everything
our Constitution stands for.
   After the war ended in  1902, the British Crown had to
consolidate its grip on the unimaginable fortune of gold and
diamonds that lay beneath the barren veldt of the Boer Repub-
lics of Transvaal and Orange Free State. This was done through
the Round Table of the legend of King Arthur and his Knights.
The Round Table is strictly a British M16 intelligence operation
established by the Committee of 300 which, together with the
Rhodes Scholarship program, is a dagger in the heartland of America.
   The Round Table was established in South Africa by Cecil
Rhodes and funded by the English Rothschild family. Its pur-
pose was to train business leaders loyal to the British Crown
who would secure the vast gold and diamond treasures for the
British Crown. South Africans had their birthright stolen from
them in a coup so massive and all pervading that it was apparent
only a central unified command could have pulled it off. That
unified command was the Committee of 300.
   That this was accomplished is not in dispute. By the early
1930's, the British Crown had a stranglehold on the biggest
supplies of gold and diamonds ever found in the world. NOW
THE COMMITTEE OF 300 HAD AT ITS DISPOSAL BOTH
THE VAST FORTUNE COMING FROM THE DRUG TRADE
AND THE EQUALLY VAST FORTUNE OF THE MINERAL
AND METAL WEALTH OF SOUTH AFRICA. Financial con-
trol of the world was complete.

                              152

   The  Round Table played a pivotal role in the coup. The
express purpose of the Round Table, after swallowing up South
Africa,  was to blunt the benefits to the United States of the
American War of Independence, and once more bring the United
States under British control. Organizing ability was essential for
such an enterprise and it was provided by Lord Alfred Milner,
protege of the London Rothschild family. Using Scottish Rite
Freemason principles in selecting members of Round Table,
chose chosen underwent a period of intense training at Cambridge
and Oxford Universities under the watchful eyes of John Ruskin,
a self-confessed "old school communist," and T. H. Green, an
operative of M16.
   It was Green, the son of a Christian evangelical cleric, who
spawned Rhodes, Milner, John Wheeler Bennet, A. D. Lindsay,
George Bernard Shaw and Hjalmar Schacht, Hitler's finance
minister. I pause here to remind readers that the Round Table is
only ONE SECTOR of this vast and all-encompassing Commit-
tee of 300. Yet the Round Table itself consists of a maze of
companies, institutions, banks and educational establishments,
which in itself would take qualified insurance actuaries a year to
sort out.
   Round Tablers  fanned  out throughout the  world  to  take
control of fiscal and monetary policies and political leadership
in all countries where they operated. In South Africa, General
Smuts, who had fought against the British in the Boer War, was
"turned" and became a leading British intelligence, military and
political agent who espoused the cause of the British Crown. In
the United States, in later years, the task of boring away at the
United States from the inside fell to William Yandell Elliot, the
man who spawned Henry Kissinger and who was responsible
for his meteoric rise to power as chief U.S. advisor to the
Committee of 300.
   William Yandell Elliot was "an American at Oxford," who
had  already  served the  Committee of 300  well,  which  is a
prerequisite for higher office in the service of the committee.
