-
- This is the Dr. Beter AUDIO LETTER(R), 1629 K St. NW, Washington,
- DC 20006.
-
- Hello, my friends, this is Dr. Beter. Today is February 28,
- 1981, and this is my AUDIO LETTER(R) No. 62. Last month I
- mentioned that I plan to record my AUDIO LETTER on a slightly
- more flexible schedule. In preparing the first topic of my
- report to you this month, I have taken advantage of this
- increased flexibility.
-
- For several months now I've been compiling information about a
- major new story, and just within the past few days I've been able
- to confirm some key final details about it. So thanks to waiting
- a few extra days, I'm now able to give you a much more complete
- report about it. The story, my friends, is that of the space
- shuttle COLUMBIA now being prepared for launch at Cape Canaveral.
- This month I am also able to report some encouraging progress
- with certain Directors of the Regional Federal Reserve Banks. It
- is only a beginning but, my friends, I am convinced we are going
- to win.
-
- My three special topics for this AUDIO LETTER are:
-
- Topic #1--THE SECRET MILITARY MISSION OF THE SPACE SHUTTLE
- COLUMBIA
- Topic #2--THE NEW FERMENT OF GROWING WAR TENSIONS
- Topic #3--GOLD SWINDLES BY THE MODERN DAY MONEYCHANGERS
-
- Topic #1--One day just over three months ago America's Manned
- Space Program suddenly started showing signs of life. The day
- was November 24, 1980, and that was the day when the space
- shuttle Columbia was rolled out into public at the Kennedy Space
- Center in Florida. It was the first public appearance by the
- shuttle in almost two years. The shuttle arrived at Cape
- Canaveral two years ago next month, March 1979. From then until
- last November 1980 the shuttle Columbia remained in hiding in a
- metal cocoon called the "Orbiter Processing Facility", but on
- November 24 suddenly the cocoon opened up and out rolled the
- space shuttle.
-
- The space shuttle Columbia made only a short trip that day.
- It was towed about 300 yards to the nearby Vehicle Assembly
- Building, where it disappeared once again, but we were told that
- this was only the beginning of a much longer journey. For the
- first time in nearly six years the United States was committing
- itself in public to a manned mission into space. The roll-out of
- the Columbia on November 24 took many people by surprise.
-
- America's Space Shuttle Program is a full three years behind
- schedule. Ever since late 1977 we've heard about nothing but
- problems, delays, and more problems with the space shuttle. Last
- November 19, 1980, a former director of the Apollo Moon Program
- seemed to summarize it all in disgust. Dr. George Low said in a
- speech in Chicago, quote:
-
- "Today I wonder whether we could start another Apollo, much
- less accomplish it."
-
- But only five days after Dr. Low said those words, the surprise
- roll-out of the shuttle Columbia took place. For three years the
- Space Shuttle Program was seemingly placed on hold, yet now the
- countdown is under way, and there is an air of urgency about it.
- Corners are being cut, safety precautions are being shortchanged,
- unheard of risks are being taken; and when reporters ask why
- these things are being done, they receive only double talk
- instead of answers.
-
- The space shuttle is the most complex American spacecraft ever
- built. There are more things to go wrong than ever before, and
- the entire future of America's Manned Space Program depends on
- the shuttle. In fact, within a few years we are told that the
- shuttle will be launching practically all American satellites.
-
- As far as space is concerned, America has put all of its eggs
- in one basket--the Space Shuttle. With so much at stake, my
- friends, the old NASA would have proceeded step by step with
- great care. In the old days each problem had to be solved before
- moving on to the next phase of a space program; and as a final
- test, every new American manned spacecraft made its first trip or
- two into space without astronauts aboard. That was simply to
- make sure that there would be no unexpected problems before
- having astronauts risk their lives. But, my friends, that was
- the old NASA. Those who are calling the shots in America's Space
- Program today are a different breed. Our Space Program has
- become just one more tool of the Bolsheviks here, and they are
- interested in only one thing--getting ready for thermonuclear
- war--and so a wartime rush mentality is dominating the shuttle
- launch preparations right now at Cape Canaveral. This is to be
- the shuttle's very first trip into space--and yet it will be a
- manned mission! We're told that the shuttle is designed to make
- at least 100 trips into space and back, and yet NASA says it
- cannot spare one or two preliminary shuttle launches in order to
- check it out. NASA refuses even to consider beginning with a
- manned suborbital launch like the early manned Mercury shots in
- 1961. Instead, the very first launch of the shuttle Columbia is
- to take it all the way into orbit.
-
- My friends, this plan is filled with glaring examples of
- haste. There seems to be no regard for the safety of the
- astronauts who will fly it. For example, consider the radically
- new rocket engines of the space shuttle. There are three main
- engines called SSMEs by NASA. These engines have never flown
- into space before; in fact, they had never even been fired
- altogether until just eight days ago. On that day, February 20,
- the three engines were fired for only 20 seconds on the pad at
- Cape Canaveral. NASA did not run the risk of running them longer
- even though these engines are supposed to be reusable launch
- after launch. Instead, based on a mere twenty-second test, NASA
- will have two astronauts risk their lives on the engines; and in
- the actual launch into space, the engines will not run for just
- 20 seconds--they must operate for nine minutes! NASA is now
- gambling that the three fresh engines on Columbia will last long
- enough to get into orbit. But the shuttle engines are only one
- example of NASA's unexplained haste because if Columbia does
- reach orbit, the next question is: Can it return? My friends,
- the answer is: NASA does not know.
-
- By now you have probably heard or read about the radically new
- Thermal Protection System of the space shuttle. All of our
- previous spacecraft had heat shields which carried away heat by
- burning away during re-entry; therefore they could only be used
- once. But the shuttle is supposed to be re-usable over and over,
- so it requires a different kind of heat shield. It is a
- lightweight ceramic, broken up into more than 30,000 small pieces
- called "tiles."
-
- For at least two years now we have been hearing stories about
- problems with the tiles. It began when the shuttle Columbia
- arrived at Cape Canaveral in March 1979 on the back of a jumbo
- jet. Many tiles had been lost or damaged during the flight and
- the Columbia looked like it had smallpox. Soon after that we
- started hearing about tiles being tested, removed, replaced,
- re-tested, and so on. Part of the controversy over the tiles is
- real. There are legitimate arguments among many space engineers
- whether the tiles will succeed or fail. Those questions will
- finally be answered one way or another only when and if the
- shuttle Columbia drops out of orbit to return to earth. But for
- the Bolsheviks who now control America's Space Program, the
- arguments over the tiles are only a tool.
-
- The tile controversy made a perfect cover story to explain
- away the 3-year grounding of the space shuttle. The real reason
- is that America has been virtually locked out of military space
- missions since late 1977. As recently as August 1977 it had
- looked as if the United States would soon be eclipsing Russia
- with new space exploits. That month the first free-flight tests
- of the space shuttle took place. A shuttle was carried aloft
- aboard a jumbo jet, then cut loose and guided to earth by
- astronauts. The test went perfectly. The era of the space
- shuttle was about to dawn, or so it seemed.
-
- Meanwhile Russia's space program seemed completely silent, but
- everything turned upside-down the following month, September
- 1977. Russia began deploying her secretly-developed Charged
- Particle Beam weapon in space, and on September 27, 1977,
- history's first true space battle took place, the BATTLE OF THE
- HARVEST MOON. I reported it that month in AUDIO LETTER No. 26.
- In a stunning upset, Russia smashed America's secret military
- control of space.
-
- Two days later, Russia's Manned Space Program suddenly came to
- life. Russia launched the Salyut-6 Space Station on September
- 29, 1977; and from that day to this, there has been a steady
- stream of Russian cosmonauts into space and back. Even
- cosmonauts from seven (7) other countries have been whisked into
- space by Russian rockets. There have even been cosmonauts in
- orbit from Cuba and Vietnam. Meanwhile, American astronauts have
- been able to do nothing but grind their teeth and watch.
-
- The Bolsheviks here, my friends, have been waiting and
- watching for a moment of weakness among their enemies--the secret
- new rulers of Russia. The Bolsheviks want to regain their former
- positions of power in Russia; but for years now, Russia's new
- rulers have been expelling the Bolsheviks, who have flocked
- mostly here to the United States. When I recorded AUDIO LETTER
- No. 55 last June 1980, I reported that a moment of weakness was
- developing in the Kremlin. Bolshevik forces had succeeded in
- penetrating the Kremlin. They were wreaking havoc among Russia's
- top leadership. At the same time, Russia's expulsion of
- Bolsheviks slowed to a trickle. Immigration from Russia was at
- its lowest level in years during the second half of 1980. So the
- decision was made last July to go ahead with a space shuttle
- mission.
-
- For the first time in three years there appeared to be a
- chance of slipping through Russia's space blockade. Even so any
- American attempt to launch a manned military mission into space
- will be very risky. It dare not be attempted until a mission is
- ready that is worth the risk. The Bolsheviks are now ready with
- that mission. It is the secret pay load now in the cargo bay of
- the space shuttle Columbia. It was developed in association with
- the supersecret "National Reconnaissance Office" whose very
- existence is regarded as secret in Government circles.
-
- When Russia began her surprise space offensive in September
- 1977, she did so by destroying an American Spy Satellite on
- September 20. A week later, America's secret Moon Base was put
- out of action, which freed Russia's hands to pour into space. In
- the months that followed, Russia gradually knocked out all of our
- Spy and Early Warning satellites, one by one. When I recorded
- AUDIO LETTER No. 33 seven months later, I reported that Russia
- had finished the job. Since that time, April 1978, America has
- had no Spy satellites on continuous duty over Russia. Several
- spy satellites have been launched since then but each one has
- been knocked out quickly. Not one has lasted for as long as one
- week! But these brief spy satellite missions have alerted the
- Bolsheviks here to one thing--that is, there are major changes
- taking place among the potential wartime targets in Russia. Some
- known targets from the past are becoming less important, while
- other new targets have been detected.
-
- Last June in AUDIO LETTER No. 55 I outlined the secret plan
- for an American nuclear first strike against Russia. That plan
- relies on missiles, including America's secret mobile missile,
- the Minuteman TX, and it cannot succeed without up-to-date
- information on the targets in Russia.
-
- As I will outline in Topic #2, the Bolsheviks here are once
- again doing all they can to get set for nuclear war, so they are
- desperate for new, up-to-date reconnaissance data from Russia.
- In other words, they must have an operational spy satellite which
- can survive in orbit for a while, and the Bolsheviks here now
- believe they have developed that kind of satellite. Eventually
- they know that Russia's orbital fleet of manned Cosmos
- Interceptors will succeed in destroying it; but before they can
- do so, military planners here believe the satellite will be able
- to radio back enough information to work with. And so, my
- friends, the first flight of America's space shuttle, the
- Columbia, is to be a secret military mission. It's purpose is to
- prepare for war. That is why there is such a frantic effort to
- rush to launch with unproven hardware, and that is why the very
- first mission will be manned, instead of an unmanned test shot.
- It has to be manned because of the secret cargo it is carrying in
- its huge cargo bay.
-
- When the shuttle reaches orbit, if it reaches orbit,
- astronauts will be required to deploy the military satellite
- inside. The satellite is basically a spy satellite, but it is
- also much more. In order to do its job, it is designed to fend
- off Russian space weapons for as long as possible. As a result,
- it will be nothing less than a robot battle station in space. In
- space terminology, it is a "hardened satellite" able to withstand
- an attack without being easily destroyed. It is also equipped
- with active defenses, meaning it can shoot back.
-
- Right now the components of the satellite are crammed into the
- cargo bay of the shuttle Columbia. They were already there when
- the Columbia was rolled out last November. Once in orbit, the
- job of the astronauts, John Young and Robert Crippen, will be to
- assemble it and get it operating, and fast.
-
- Once it is assembled and floating in space, the satellite will
- look like a giant rotating tin can perhaps 30 feet long and 20
- feet in diameter; but on closer inspection it would seem to be
- made more like a wooden barrel except that the barrel staves are
- all made of a whitish metal, tungsten. Several of these metal
- sections can be retracted on automatic command, making the
- satellite look like a shiny barrel with a few staves missing.
- Inside the outermost tungsten barrel is another smaller barrel;
- and inside that is a still smaller barrel. Finally, at the very
- center is the heart of the satellite itself. The tungsten
- barrels are separated from one another by a foot or more of
- space. There is also considerable space between the innermost
- barrel and the core satellite. The tungsten barrels constitute
- the passive defense of the satellite. If a Charged Particle Beam
- blast strikes the outermost barrel, it will vaporize a spot on
- the barrel; but in the process it will absorb energy and diffuse
- the beam. In theory, that will greatly reduce the damage done to
- the second barrel and do no damage at all to the innermost
- barrel. Tungsten has the highest melting point of any metal, so
- this system of particle beam shields is expected to last through
- a number of battles.
-
- The three-layer tungsten shield system is also instrumented.
- When a blast strikes it, the blast pattern will be sensed as an
- initial indication of where the attack is coming from. A
- computer in the core satellite will then activate a secret new
- target acquisition system called LADAR, meaning laser direction
- and ranging. The movable barrel stave sections of the rotating
- tungsten shields will be opened up. LADAR will peek out through
- the openings as they rotate past in ultra-fast scanning.
-
- In the black void of space, LADAR is expected to be much more
- efficient than radar, picking up the Russian attacker quickly;
- and the moment it does, the American robot battle station will
- open fire. When it does so, it will pose a major threat even to
- a Russian Cosmos Interceptor because, my friends, the American
- satellite will be armed with a giant carbon dioxide gas dynamic
- laser. It is a more compact version of the laser which has been
- successfully tested aboard a modified KC-135 jet tanker. It
- produces intense infrared radiation with a power of over one
- megawatt--that is 1,000,000 watts. What can a one megawatt laser
- do? Let me give you an idea. An industrial 10,000-watt laser
- can slice through a one-inch thick steel plate in a matter of
- seconds. The satellite laser is 100 times that powerful. It is
- not as powerful as a Russian Charged Particle Beam, but it is
- powerful enough to cripple or destroy a Russian attacker--that
- is, my friends, if the space shuttle Columbia makes it into orbit
- and if Young and Crippen succeed in deploying the satellite. But
- will they?
-
- In the past I have given many details about the clever
- deceptions which have surrounded our Space Program. But, my
- friends, the deceptions of the past were child's play compared to
- what we are about to witness, because the Bolsheviks here must
- get their robot battle station into orbit without letting you
- know about it; and whether they succeed or fail, they must try to
- maintain the appearance of success. As I mentioned earlier,
- everything is riding on the space shuttle, so I will now describe
- the plan for the coming flight of the Columbia. I will describe
- what you will see if the plan works, and I will also describe
- what will really be taking place, which is far different.
-
- According to the latest schedule, the Columbia is intended to
- lift off on a sunny morning in mid April 1981. Millions will
- watch on television as Young and Crippen roar upward into the sky
- and into orbit. Then the scene will shift to the standard
- coverage of Young and Crippen in their cockpit, and for a little
- over two days the coverage will continue off and on. There will
- be cockpit scenes, scenes in Mission Control, and so on; and
- there will be some seemingly unexpected problems, nothing serious
- but just enough to add a touch of spice to it all. It will look
- for all the world like the real thing. Television viewers will
- have no suspicion that they are only watching excerpts from
- numerous simulations of the flight. In its cover-up of the
- SKYLAB fiasco, NASA learned well the techniques of deception.
-
- Meanwhile there will be no television coverage at all of the
- real flight except for the initial lift-off. Instead, when Young
- and Crippen reach orbit, they will go to work fast. They will
- depressurize the cabin, open the cargo hatch, and move the robot
- spy satellite components away from the Columbia. They will also
- remove a Gemini-type two-man space capsule from the Columbia
- cargo bay. After moving these things several hundred yards away
- from the Columbia, the two astronauts will close the cargo bay by
- remote control. They will maneuver down underneath the Columbia
- for a quick visual inspection of the condition of the thermal
- tiles; but the urgency of setting up the robot satellite will
- leave no time for any attempt to repair any tiles. If the
- astronauts were to do that, they would lose precious time both in
- setting up the satellite and in making good their own escape in
- the Gemini capsule. This, my friends, is why NASA has refused to
- include a tile repair kit on the first shuttle mission. As NASA
- administrator Robert Frosch said in a recent news conference,
- quote:
-
- "I felt in the end that it would be likely to increase risk,
- perhaps not risk with regard to the tile system but risk with
- regard to the safety of the whole flight."
-
- After the briefest of inspections, the astronauts will turn
- over control of the Columbia to NASA Houston with the words:
- "Okay for retrofire." Then they will float away from the
- Columbia and set to work quickly on assembling the robot spy
- satellite. It is expected that they will complete the job within
- three to four orbits. As soon as the robot satellite is
- assembled and operating, Young and Crippen will board their
- Gemini-type space capsule. If all goes according to plan, they
- will drop out of orbit and splash down in the Pacific Ocean. It
- will only be the evening of the same day they took off, but on
- television the falsified NASA coverage will still be showing
- tapes of Young and Crippen in the simulated cockpit of the
- Columbia. Young and Crippen are planned to be picked up at sea
- after their secret splashdown. From there they are to be
- transported to Edwards Air Force Base in California to await
- further events.
-
- Meanwhile about 12 hours after the launch from Cape Canaveral,
- Houston will send a retrofire signal to the unmanned Columbia.
- The shuttle's engines will fire. Somewhere over the Indian Ocean
- the space shuttle will enter the atmosphere. It will be the
- first complete test of the shuttle's thermal tiles. If they
- work, Columbia will survive re-entry. Then at lower altitude,
- piloting of the Columbia will be taken over by remote control.
- If all goes well, the Columbia will touch down in the great sandy
- desert of western Australia.
-
- If all goes according to plan, all these things will take
- place during the first day of the supposed 54-hour mission of
- Young and Crippen. Then for the final act of the charade, we
- will be told on television that the Columbia is re-entering over
- the Pacific Ocean; and finally, lo and behold the space shuttle
- will glide into view. Everyone will watch in fascination as the
- shuttle dips lower and lower over Edwards Air Force Base,
- California. Finally it will touch down on the dry lake bed and
- gradually brake to a stop, and out will climb Young and Crippen.
- Everyone will assume that they are climbing out of the Columbia;
- but, my friends, they will actually be climbing out of a
- different shuttle named the ENTERPRISE. It was the Enterprise
- which we saw in those landing tests in August 1977, and it will
- again be the Enterprise which we will see making another landing
- soon. It will be retouched to look like it came from space, but
- it will be a fraud.
-
- My friends, that is the plan as it now stands, but there may
- well be some big surprises. The Bolsheviks here have devised a
- robot battle station to spy on Russia and defend itself against
- Russian space weapons, but it is designed primarily with Cosmos
- Interceptors in mind. And while American designers have been
- devising ways to counter the Cosmos Interceptors, Russian
- technology has also been advancing.
-
- The secret military mission of the space shuttle Columbia is a
- desperate gamble. If it succeeds, it will bring the world much
- closer to thermonuclear war. If it fails, we may well be
- witnessing America's final manned mission into Space.
-
- Topic #2--In AUDIO LETTER(R) No. 59 last October I reported that
- the Bolsheviks here were trying to set up a new strategy to bring
- on NUCLEAR WAR ONE. They had been foiled repeatedly in their
- attempts to trigger a war by means of our hostages in Iran, so
- they were devising a new plan which was to be set in motion after
- releasing the hostages. When voting machines registered a
- surprise landslide in the name of Ronald Reagan last November, it
- set a deadline for arranging a hostage release. That deadline
- was Inauguration Day, January 20, last month. Otherwise the
- Bolsheviks were in danger of losing control of the Iran crisis
- which they themselves had created, and so at the very last minute
- our hostages were released last month.
-
- Contrary to the original plans of the Bolsheviks here and in
- Iran, our hostages came home alive; but now new maneuvers are
- under way to bring on war. Bolshevik agents are stirring up
- Poland in never ending strikes and turmoil. Having failed in
- their Pope's Revolution plan of two years ago, they're trying to
- make Poland explode in a different way.
-
- Meanwhile, to keep Russia's new rulers off balance, another
- crisis has been created in our own hemisphere--El Salvador. CIA
- operatives are stirring up both sides in the civil war there in
- order to have something to blame on Cuba. As always, the
- Russians are reacting strongly to the implied new American
- threats against Cuba, so El Salvador is serving its purpose as a
- tool to stoke up tensions between Russia and the United States.
-
- The El Salvador crisis contains echoes of "Operation Guyana"
- two years ago. Now, as then, Russia is being encouraged to worry
- about Cuba as a diversionary tactic; and just as happened in
- Guyana, human lives are being sacrificed purely to attract
- attention.
-
- Public attention was first riveted on Guyana by the Port
- Kaituma Airport massacre, and not long ago public attention was
- focused on El Salvador by the murder of four religious workers.
- All this is to help catch Russia off guard later on when the
- arena of conflict shifts once again to the Persian Gulf area.
-
- Once again secret plans are being laid to create conflict
- between Israel and Saudi Arabia. For that purpose the United
- States has just announced that it will sell offensive armaments
- for Saudi Arabia's F-15 Fighter Bombers, and at the same time
- there are planted reports that the Saudis favor a jihad (a Moslem
- holy war) to retake Jerusalem. Right now all of this is going on
- quietly. It is not highlighted in our controlled major media.
- But the preparations are under way now for a Persian Gulf
- explosion later this year of 1981.
-
- When that takes place, the plan is to focus all eyes once
- again on Iran. At a critical moment the shaky Iranian government
- will be brought down. Suddenly that will leave Russian forces on
- the north and American forces on the south, with a vacuum in
- between; and almost over night the stage will be set for a
- nuclear confrontation.
-
- As a preliminary step, the plan is also to declare a "National
- Economic Emergency" here in the United States. That will trigger
- the emergency powers of the President; and while we will be told
- that it is all to fight inflation, it will actually be to prepare
- for nuclear war!
-
- My friends, if all this is to be stopped, we must go to the
- source of the Satanic power. That power is MONEY POWER, wrongly
- used. It is the power of the modern day moneychangers in our
- land, so it is to them that I now direct your attention.
-
- Topic #3--When our Lord Jesus Christ walked the earth nearly 2000
- years ago, He did many miraculous things. He healed the sick, He
- fed the hungry, He loved the unloved. In short, He went about
- doing good. Most of the time our Lord astonished everyone with
- His patience. When He taught He found that people did not pay
- attention, and so He had to teach them the same lesson over and
- over again, and yet He never once grew angry with anyone who was
- seeking to learn. Even so, He also told His disciples, "Do you
- think that I have come to bring peace? No, not peace, but a
- sword." He explained that there must be a division between those
- who are for God and those who are against God. And as gentle as
- He was with the weak, He displayed a fiery anger with those who
- were swollen up with arrogant power; and one time the anger of
- our Lord Jesus Christ exploded into violence. That one occasion,
- my friends, was when He confronted the moneychangers in the
- temple.
-
- The temple moneychangers possessed a money monopoly. Everyone
- who came to worship presented offerings to the priests; and to
- buy something to offer, they had to use a special temple money,
- so called. The temple money was not really money at all. It was
- only a kind of scrip with no intrinsic value. But everyone who
- came to worship, from the richest to the poorest, had to turn in
- good coins of gold, silver, and copper to buy the scrip. That
- was the only way that they could buy a sheep, or a ram, or a dove
- to offer to the priest. The moneychangers really performed no
- useful function at all; but thanks to their money monopoly, they
- extracted tremendous profits from everyone else. When Jesus saw
- all this, He became enraged. The moneychangers were so corrupt
- that they were standing in the way of worship itself in order to
- make money, so Jesus wasted no time trying to reason with them.
- Instead, He seized a whip and went after them. He drove away the
- moneychangers, He knocked over their counting tables; and seizing
- their bags of money obtained by a form of theft, He ripped them
- open and spilled them out.
-
- My friends, today it is you and I who are at the mercy of the
- moneychangers. We, too, have been forced to give up real money
- made of silver and gold. Instead, we are forced by the Federal
- Reserve money monopoly to deal in Federal Reserve IOUs--nothing
- but paper scrip! And in return, the arrogant moneychangers of
- today, the Bolsheviks, are trying to take everything from us.
- They are eating up our savings by creating inflation through
- interest rates, which create no new wealth. They are using their
- money power to betray us into nuclear war, and they are even
- trying to destroy the Christian faith itself by constantly
- working to pervert our religious practices. Like the
- moneychangers of old, haters of our Lord Jesus Christ are once
- again sitting in the temple.
-
- Almost from the moment our Republic was founded, the
- moneychangers started trying to seize control of America's money.
- First the idea was called the "Bank of the United States." Such
- a bank did exist for a while with a charter granted by Congress,
- but on July 10, 1832, President Andrew Jackson put a stop to the
- central bank idea for a while. Congress had passed the bill to
- give a new 20-year charter to a "Bank of the United States."
- Jackson vetoed the bill with the words:
-
- "Every monopoly and all exclusive privileges are granted at the
- expense of the public, which ought to receive a fair equivalent."
-
- In other words, Jackson was insisting that the public be treated
- fairly.
-
- But, my friends, the moneychangers never give up. In 1913
- they finally got what they wanted. It is called the FEDERAL
- RESERVE SYSTEM. Nowadays few people know the story of how the
- Federal Reserve System came into existence. Suffice it to say
- that it took only a few of the international bankers to do it,
- without great fanfare. One man more than any other was the
- father of the Federal Reserve in its present form. As the
- proceedings of the Academy of Political Science of Columbia
- University put it, quote:
-
- "The Federal Reserve Act will be associated in history with the
- name of Paul M. Warburg."
-
- In order for Warburg and his associates to quietly get this
- legislation past Congress, he had to overcome one objection.
- That major objection was to the creation of only one central
- bank, which would obviously be a monopoly. Warburg got around
- that by conceiving the 12-bank Federal Reserve System; but when a
- Senator asked him how he would maintain control of 12 banks
- instead of the single bank he favored, Warburg answered, quote:
-
- "It is a little bit complicated, which objection, however, can
- be overcome in an administrative way."
-
- In other words, my friends, he could short-circuit the 12-bank
- system and do what he wanted a central bank to do by
- administrative techniques. And that is what has been done in the
- situation over our missing gold.
-
- The real central bank is the Federal Reserve Bank of New York,
- and the administrative arm of that central bank is actually the
- "Board of Governors" here in Washington. The New York Bank, the
- Board of Governors, and agents within the United States Treasury
- Department all work hand in glove. It is they who constitute the
- modern day moneychangers in our land.
-
- In all of this, the other 11 Regional Federal Reserve Banks
- just go along for the ride. They do possess latent powers of
- their own, but thanks to Warburg's "administrative techniques"
- they're always indoctrinated not to exercise those powers.
- Instead, the 11 Regional Banks outside New York are treated like
- children by the moneychangers in New York and Washington. They
- are given big buildings, fancy offices, impressive stationery,
- fat salaries, numerous advisors, and impressive titles; but they
- are always told in effect, "Leave all the thinking to us big
- boys." Year in and year out the Regional Federal Reserve Banks,
- all except New York, are kept in the dark, so last month in AUDIO
- LETTER No. 61 I tried to light a candle in that darkness.
-
- All of the Federal Reserve Banks share in the responsibility
- for safeguarding our gold. The Presidents and Directors of all
- the Banks are now on legal notice concerning those
- responsibilities, so from now on they will have no excuse.
- Either they are for us OR they are against us--they must make a
- choice. They do hold power, and those who hold power must be
- held accountable with the consequences of its exercise.
-
- The question we have posed is very simple and very basic:
- EITHER AMERICA'S GOLD IS THERE or IT IS NOT THERE. We want an
- indisputable physical inventory to find out once and for all, so
- we have appealed to the Regional Federal Reserve Banks to wake
- up, to flex their muscles for once, and to bring about an
- inventory.
-
- My friends, I want to thank all of you who followed through on
- what I asked you to do last month, and I want to let you know the
- results so far.
-
- Up to now the Federal Reserve System is continuing to maintain
- its false outer appearance of unruffled unity; but behind that
- facade, little cracks are beginning to open up. It's true, many
- of the Regional Bank Directors have so far been unable to open
- their minds to the truth, but there are some important
- exceptions. One high official of one Regional Federal Reserve
- Bank is being very cooperative up to now. Very quietly he is
- providing us with important information. He has not yet gone so
- far as to demand an inventory, but he is responding with an open
- mind. At one other Regional Bank a high official has signaled to
- us that he is seriously concerned, but up to now he is still
- sitting on the fence. Beyond that, I have also received reliable
- reports that scattered around the country a number of Regional
- Federal Reserve Directors are troubled. Until last month they
- had never been given one hint of their own legal responsibilities
- regarding the gold.
-
- My friends, all this is at least an encouraging start, but it
- is clear that they are going to take more convincing. We should
- not be surprised at that nor discouraged by it. Many of these
- men have been associated with the Federal Reserve System for many
- years. Human nature being what it is, they naturally find it
- hard to accept the fact that the wool has been pulled over their
- eyes. Typically, these are highly educated men, they are not
- stupid. They will have to swallow their pride in many cases if
- they are to see how thoroughly they have been fooled and used.
-
- Over the past six or seven years I've made public many facts
- which these men should consider for their own good, but rather
- than go back over any of those again, I want to report three new
- ones. The discrepancies surrounding our gold supplies just go on
- and on, my friends.
-
- First, let me refer to the Treasury Inspector General's report
- to Senator William Proxmire dated last September 30, 1980. This
- so-called report came about because of your letters to Senator
- Proxmire. The subject was the missing gold shipment from Fort
- Knox of January 20, 1965, which I have discussed in past AUDIO
- LETTERS. The shipment amounted to over one and three-quarter
- MILLION ounces of gold worth around a billion dollars at today's
- prices, yet it was omitted from official Treasury shipment
- listings.
-
- Recently this feeble excuse for a report has been cited by the
- Federal Reserve Board of Governors. For example on February 2,
- 1981, Theodore E. Allison, secretary of the Board of Governors,
- wrote to the president of the Philadelphia Bank, Mr. Edward G.
- Boehne. Boehne had written to the Board of Governors in response
- to your inquiries; and with their letter of reply, the Board
- enclosed the Treasury Inspector General's report! My friends, I
- have mentioned before that this report is totally unsatisfactory.
- It is a fraud and a farce, yet now the moneychangers of the Board
- of Governors are falling back on that report as one way to calm
- down the Regional Banks. So I think it is appropriate to give
- you just one example of the glaring errors sprinkled throughout
- the report. I also want to do this because some of you have
- asked me to say more about it.
-
- If you have a copy of the Treasury Inspector General's report,
- please look on page 2. The third paragraph refers to the missing
- shipment of January 20, 1965. It says very impressively, quote:
-
- "This shipment was receipted for on Treasury Department Form
- TUS-12b--Receipt for Forwarding Depository, Voucher No. 65-1--on
- January 22, 1965, by John P. Bath, an employee of the New York
- Assay Office."
-
- Sounds cut and dried, doesn't it? Sorry, my friends, it so
- happens that the New York Assay Office had no permanent employee
- named John P. Bath on January 22, 1965; so if the Receipt quoted
- by the Treasury Inspector General exists at all, it means
- absolutely nothing. It is fraudulent! That is the kind of
- report which Senator William Proxmire was so eager and happy to
- settle for, and that is the kind of report which the Federal
- Reserve Board of Governors now uses to soothe the Regional Banks.
- If the Regional Federal Reserve Banks want to swallow that, then
- shame on them.
-
- Now let me give you a second example--another major
- discrepancy in the records of the Treasury Department and the
- Federal Reserve Board of Governors. I have spoken before about
- the so-called "London Gold Pool" which operated between 1961 and
- 1968. This is the official cloak of authority which was used
- during that period to explain the hemorrhage of gold out of Fort
- Knox. According to official Treasury records, some 219.5 MILLION
- ounces of gold left Fort Knox. Of that amount, supposedly a
- little over 9-million ounces went to the New York Federal Reserve
- Bank. The other 210-million ounces were supposedly destined for
- the London Gold Pool. But now let me give you the conflicting
- statements of former Treasury Secretary William Simon. On May 4,
- 1976, he wrote to then Congressman John Conlan of Arizona.
- Conlan had requested some better answers from Simon than he had
- given previously to questions about our missing gold. Simon
- spent over two months constructing a reply to Conlan's February
- 26, 1976 letter. Simon sent Conlan a two-page letter plus an
- eight-page memorandum trying to refute the charges. At one point
- in the memorandum Simon says, quote:
-
- "The statement which alleges that the shipments of gold to
- London for the London Gold Pool arrangement were used as a cover
- for secret losses of United States gold simply isn't true."
-
- And yet, just four sentences later, Simon says, quote:
-
- "When the arrangement was terminated by the Washington
- agreement of March 1968, the United States had made net sales to
- the Pool during its period of operation totaling 45.2-million
- ounces."
-
- Now let's compare two numbers side by side, my friends. First is
- Simon's number. As Secretary of the Treasury he said that the
- United States sent only about 45-million ounces of gold net to
- the London Gold Pool, but Treasury records give a different
- number. At least 210-million ounces disappeared from Fort Knox
- alone during that period. If only 45-million ounces went to the
- Gold Pool, as Simon said in writing, what happened to all the
- rest? Two hundred ten million (210-million) minus 45-million
- leaves 165-million ounces of gold from Fort Knox unaccounted for!
- Yet, I repeat, the only excuse ever given for the Fort Knox gold
- hemorrhage was the London Gold Pool. My friends, that
- unaccounted-for gold is Federal Reserve gold belonging to the
- American people. As I detailed last month, the Federal Reserve
- title to the gold is beyond legal dispute. Every Officer and
- every Director of every Regional Federal Reserve Bank shares a
- legal responsibility if that gold is missing, and if they do not
- investigate. The incredible discrepancy I have just revealed is
- in black and white in Treasury statements. Do the Regional Banks
- dare to close their eyes to it? If so, God help us all.
-
- Now let me report just one more mystery to you about our gold.
- This one did not take place years ago, but just this
- month--February 1981. Last month our hostages were finally
- released from Iran. Most of the last-minute settlements involved
- banking matters. Most of all, Iran demanded that 1.6-million
- ounces of gold be returned. According to all the news reports,
- the return of Iran's gold was arranged by cable transactions
- between the Federal Reserve System and the Bank of England.
- Supposedly, Iran's 1.6-million ounces of gold was safe and sound
- at the New York Federal Reserve Bank. By a system of banking
- credits, this amount of gold was reportedly credited to Britain's
- gold stock here in America, then the Bank of England turned over
- an equivalent amount of gold into Iran's custody in London. We
- were told that no gold actually left America in this transaction.
- But, my friends, that is a lie. Simply put, Britain's bankers do
- not trust us. The Bank of England secretly demanded that Iran's
- 1.6-million ounces of good delivery gold be physically sent to
- London; and so on February 7, just three weeks ago, there was a
- secret gold shipment to London by air. It came to about
- 1.6-million ounces, but it did not come from the New York Federal
- Reserve Bank! It was not Iran's gold. Instead, the shipment was
- made from the New York Assay Office. Dregs of junk gold from
- Fort Knox were scraped together, then it was rushed to London in
- secret.
-
- My friends, this raises a very serious question. If Iran's
- gold still existed at the New York Bank, why was that not sent to
- London? Why was the New York Assay Office given a panic refining
- job to scrape together the gold? In any case, the gold that went
- to London was not Iranian gold--it was Federal Reserve gold, part
- of the small amount still left in this country. It was taken
- from the dregs of junk gold removed from Fort Knox for auctions
- in the recent past. As I reported more than five years ago in
- AUDIO LETTER No. 5, any gold left in Fort Knox is radioactive.
- It has been contaminated by plutonium super poison stored in the
- Gold Vault by the CIA in the late 60's. Recently a leading Swiss
- bank refused to take delivery of Fort Knox gold purchased at a
- gold auction. Their tests proved that the gold was indeed
- radioactive; so the Bank of England should test the gold which
- they just received very carefully.
-
- The secret gold shipment of February 7 further depleted what
- little is left of the Federal Reserve gold. It took place with
- the knowledge and collusion of the Federal Reserve Board of
- Governors and the New York Bank; but once again, the other 11
- Regional Banks have been taken for a ride. It may well be that
- they do not even know about this latest disappearance of their
- gold. If not, they have once again been used by the
- moneychangers who control them.
-
- My friends, there are mountains of evidence that our gold
- reserves are not as claimed, but will the Regional Federal
- Reserve Bankers wake up in time? Will they take action to save
- both themselves and our country? If they do not act, what lies
- ahead may well be foreshadowed in these words written to a
- commercial banker by one of my listeners: "More and more of my
- friends and people I know are withdrawing all their funds held in
- banks, then dealing in cash, silver, gold, and barter systems for
- their transactions. Banks and bankers, through not serving the
- true interests of the people, are losing any useful place in
- society."
-
- LAST MINUTE SUMMARY
-
- Now it is time for my "Last Minute Summary."
-
- As I say these words, the space shuttle COLUMBIA is being
- readied for a desperate secret military mission. Once again
- powerful forces here in the United States are bent on war,
- NUCLEAR WAR. Our own money has been taken away from us in order
- to finance preparations for warfare that will destroy us.
-
- The evil which is being planned for us all has one root. That
- root is a Satanic and perverted MONEY POWER. If we are serious
- about saving our land, we must pull up that root. We must do as
- our Lord Jesus Christ Himself did long ago. We must drive out
- the moneychangers, and restore honor and honesty to our land.
-
- Until next month, God willing, this is Dr. Beter. Thank you,
-
