-----------------------------------------------------------------

Hello, everybody, this is Dr. Beter. Today is January 21,
1976, and this is my monthly AUDIO LETTER No. 8.

As we begin to celebrate the Bicentennial of our Independence,
let us reflect for a moment on our past. Out of a vast
wilderness our people created a nation with astonishing speed.
Our Forefathers brought forth a nation with the highest and most
stable form of self-government ever conceived by man. It was
unique in the entire world, a prescription for freedom simple
enough for everyone to understand, yet truly a work of genius.
It's no wonder that from our earliest days as an independent
nation the eyes of the entire world have been riveted on the
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

What was initially called our noble experiment was spectacular
in its success, and America's banner of freedom became a symbol
of hope for oppressed peoples everywhere.

Would any of this have happened without the clear patriotic
vision of our Founding Fathers? Could it have come to pass
without the courage of George Washington who in 1776 led the
famous surprise attack on the far stronger British forces in
Trenton? Would we have had our inspired and inspirational
CONSTITUTION if Benjamin Franklin's call for prayer had not
broken the impasse over representation at the Constitutional
Convention in Philadelphia in 1787? Could we ever have had a
government sensitive to the wishes of the people if the humility
of our early leaders had been replaced with the arrogant boasting
practiced by our corrupt rulers of today? And, would we have had
a nation such as ours if our Founding Fathers had believed in the
internationalism promoted today by the Rockefeller Brothers?

What would our Founding Fathers say today if they could see us
meddling in the affairs of other countries? How would they feel
about the tremendous sacrifices they endured if they could see
our rulers of today building up another nation to become our
slave master at our own expense?

We would all do well to look back once again at the patriotic
words of George Washington in his Farewell Address as President.
He advised his countrymen to extend commercial relations to
foreign nations with as little political connection as possible.
He did not advise against such commercial relations in
themselves, nor did he object to temporary alliances with foreign
nations when needed in an emergency; but he did give us a clear,
strong warning that has an urgent relevance to us today, and I
quote:

"to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the
foreign world."

Is this rule being followed today by our Rockefeller Rulers and
their client followers?

Since 1917 the Rockefeller empire has been allied with the
Soviet Union, with which we are to be merged against our will and
with the Soviets ultimately in the driver's seat!! As I
explained last month, and have often discussed on other
occasions, we, the people are the victims of an alliance between
State Socialism in Russia and Corporate Socialism here under the
Rockefeller Brothers. And, my friends, this is not an informal
arrangement. Since at least the early days of the Eisenhower
Administration, which was actually run behind the scenes by
Nelson Rockefeller, there has been a White House Directive which
I am about to reveal to you for the very first time. It is
short, but not sweet. It establishes as a prime goal of federal
policy, and I quote here:

"to so alter life in the United States that it can be
comfortably merged with life in the Soviet Union."

My friends, I do not merely challenge, I dare President Ford
or anyone else in the White House to deny the existence of this
Directive under oath. They won't do so unless they have become
so desperate that they are willing to gamble on any bluff,
because I have access to documentary evidence on this matter that
could immediately convict them for perjury and lead to
impeachment and/or prison.

Yes, this short White House Directive, my friends, quote: "to
so alter life in the United States that it can be comfortably
merged with life in the Soviet Union"--that's the key to all of
our domestic and foreign policy today. It explains why we have
become the factory for the Soviet Union. It explains why so many
multinational corporations are being used to build up the Soviet
economy while depressing our own. It explains why the many huge
Rockefeller-controlled, tax-exempt Foundations, which are all
working in this direction, are immune to prosecution for their
flagrant violation of their charters. It explains why the
Rockefeller-controlled banks and financial institutions are so
single-mindedly financing the Soviet Juggernaut at American
taxpayer expense.

It is little wonder that Nobel Prize-winning biologist George
Wald in an article a year ago about the runaway power of the
multinational corporations said, and I quote: "hence no nation so
closely resembles the United States as the Soviet Union."

My fellow citizens, it is essential that we halt this horrible
slippage backward into tyranny. If we are to survive as a free
people beyond this our Bicentennial Year, we, the people, must
rise up and make the Government that belongs to us turn its face
forward once again to the still new, still fresh ideals and
principles that launched our great nation. I am absolutely
convinced that we can still do it IF WE WILL.

Last month I recorded AUDIO BOOK No. 6 entitled "WHAT WE CAN
DO TO SAVE AMERICA" to explain the strategy which I believe can
and will do the job. And already alert citizens all over America
are listening to this message, getting to work, and making
suggestions. If YOU will join in the task, we can do it.
Meanwhile I intend to keep informing you about what we are up
against, how events are progressing, and what plans are being
formed behind the scenes. To this end, I want to talk to you
today about three topics that all reflect the drive to merge life
in America with that in the Soviet Union.

Topic #1--OUR CHARGES FOR A CITIZENS' INDICTMENT ON THE FORT KNOX
TWIN SCANDAL COVER-UP

Topic #2--ROCKEFELLER PROGRESS AND PROBLEMS IN THEIR DRIVE TO
DRAG OUR ECONOMY DOWN TO THE SOVIET LEVEL

Topic #3--SO-CALLED "DETENTE" AND THE IGNORED PROPHETIC WARNINGS
OF GEORGE WASHINGTON

Topic #1--It is essential that I give special attention to the
first topic today, but I will deal with the remaining two topics
as fully as I can in the time that remains for them.

Almost two years ago in April 1974 during Congressional
testimony before a subcommittee of the "House Banking and
Currency Committee" I first revealed that the Bullion Depository
at Fort Knox had been looted of its gold. I stood ready to
present evidence to substantiate my charges, but nothing whatever
was done! Having been failed by Congress, I then took my story
to the public through lectures, radio Talk Shows, and publication
of my charges in a national weekly newspaper. Faced by this
public pressure, the Government responded by setting in motion a
well orchestrated cover-up, a cover-up far more massive and more
serious than that of the Watergate scandal which removed our last
elected President from office.

The actual cover-up began on September 23, 1974, with the
carefully staged visit of Congressmen and newsmen to Fort Knox.
I have detailed the ensuing cover-up, among other things, in my
AUDIO BOOK No. 2 on the "FORT KNOX GOLD SCANDAL AND WHAT IT MEANS
TO YOU." I have also given you continuing updates since June
1975 by means of my monthly AUDIO LETTER. In October 1975 I
revealed what I had just learned at that time that makes a "twin"
super scandal of the Fort Knox situation--namely, the presence of
about 60 pounds of radioactive liquid super poison processed from
deadly plutonium-239 in the Central Core Vault of the Bullion
Depository at Fort Knox. The canisters of poison put there in
1968 by the CIA are corroding and leaking faster and faster,
endangering the health and even the lives of millions of
Americans in the southeastern United States.

The Government's response to this second, far more serious
half of the Fort Knox Scandal, has been the same as to the
first--COVER UP. I've explained in recent months how first
Senator Frank Church and then Congressman Otis Pike, Chairmen
respectively of the Senate and House Intelligence Committees,
have become parties to the Fort Knox plutonium scandal cover-up;
and how bureaucratic gobbledygook is being used by Government
officials to avoid giving straight, honest answers about the
situation.

But now, the Fort Knox Scandal cover-up is getting even worse.
It has recently entered a new phase of outright lying and of
masking the evidence concerning my charges. They are going for
broke, and they have long since passed the point of no return.
The same tactics of lying and cheating by the Government that are
standard practice in the Soviet Union, into which we are to be
merged, are now being used here in the United States, and these
tactics are far more effective here than in Russia because
Americans, unlike Soviet citizens, have not yet learned to expect
their government to lie to them continuously. Up 'till now the
main cover-up approach has been one of evasion, but now an
atmosphere of desperation on the part of the wrongdoers is
becoming increasingly apparent. For the very first time Treasury
Secretary William Simon has made the fatal mistake of actually
lying, in writing no less, about a crucial matter--the existence
of the Central Core Vault of the Bullion Depository at Fort Knox.
We have challenged the Government to either confirm or deny its
existence in the past; and we have identified it not only by this
name, "Central Core Vault", but also by describing it to avoid
any possibility of misunderstanding due to terminology.

In a letter to a friend of mine dated December 10, 1975, Simon
said the following, and I quote:

"The allegation that plutonium 239 is, or ever has been stored
at Fort Knox in a central core vault is false, and the Army has
just conducted an extensive test of the Bullion Depository and
has found no evidence of radioactivity. I should add that there
is no such thing as the Central Core Vault."

Notice that Simon's denial of the presence of plutonium-239 at
the Depository is tied right in with his denial of the existence
of the Central Core Vault. Obviously if there is no Central Core
Vault then it cannot contain plutonium-239! But on the other
hand, to have any faith that his denial about the plutonium is
truthful, you must also believe his assertion that there exists
no Central Core Vault at the Depository. If he would lie about
one, he would lie about the other.

With that in mind, please listen now to an excerpt from
another letter--this one written to one of my associates by a
retired Lieutenant General, John L. Ryan, Jr., a former
Commanding General of Fort Knox. General Ryan probably knows
more about the Depository than anyone else who ever commanded
Fort Knox. He spent two tours of duty there before he returned a
third time as the Commanding General; and when the gold was moved
to Fort Knox to be stored there for the very first time in 1937,
it was he who was placed in charge of the actual physical
movement of the incoming gold into the Depository. With regard
to the disputed Central Core Vault, he says, quote:

"When I use the word 'vault' I am referring to the central core
of the Depository where the bullion was stored. This vault was
below ground level and could be entered only through a specially
constructed bank-type door that opened onto a screw lift. This
door was in the Receiving-Shipping area of the Depository. The
Receiving-Shipping room was above ground level. The vault was
below ground level. Around the vault proper, or central core,
below ground level was a passageway. On this passageway were a
number of cell-like compartments. There was no means of entering
the vault from this passageway."

My friends, the passageway with its compartments are all that
the visitors saw in September 1974. The existence of the Central
Core Vault, which is where the gold, if any, should have been, is
absolutely confirmed by General Ryan; and as his letter makes
clear, the 1974 visitors had no chance of finding out about it
while wandering around in the passageway and looking at the small
compartments you heard and read about in the news.

Such bald-faced lying is bad enough, but the mounting
desperation of the Rockefeller Brothers and their lackeys over
Fort Knox now goes even beyond mere lying. It is standard
practice whenever an extremely damaging secret is in danger of
exposure, to distract attention from it and confuse the issue by
deliberately exposing something else--something far less serious
and dangerous than the secret being hidden yet shocking enough to
satisfy the public's appetite for the truth.

With our totally manipulated government of today, a good rule
of thumb is whenever something that looks really damaging is
revealed, ask yourself: "Why are they letting this out of the
bag? What is it that is worse that they are trying to distract
my attention from?" Thus, for example, Sen. Church's sensational
revelations last summer about deadly shellfish toxins and the
like fooled many into believing they had been given the whole
ugly truth about CIA misdeeds, but actually he was covering up
what he knew about the insane nuclear super poison at Fort
Knox--something a thousand times worse than anything he revealed.

Now in the same way a cover-up campaign has been launched in
regard to the leakage of the plutonium-239 super poison from Fort
Knox, and it's horrible. A few days ago on January 12, 1976, a
truck carrying radioactive waste just "happened" to have an
accident in eastern Kentucky, smack in the heart of the area now
most heavily affected by radioactive poison leakage from Fort
Knox. Fourteen of the 32 drums of waste on the truck fell off,
and 8 of them broke open and leaked. The newspaper stories
around there about it contained the usual assurances that there
was no danger, that it had been cleaned up, etc., but leakage had
occurred.

Just six days later on January 18 newspapers contained big
articles about still another alleged radioactive waste leakage
problem in Kentucky.

The truck I mentioned a moment ago had been on its way to a
nuclear waste dumping ground at Maxey Flats, Kentucky, which had
been in use since 1963, and now we are suddenly told that the
leakage is occurring there too. Federal investigators, those
wonderful watchdogs we are supposed to trust and admire, claimed
that radioactive waste in steel, wooden, and even cardboard drums
has been just dropped into trenches and covered up with dirt; and
after 12 years they have just now abruptly discovered that some
of it has gotten loose and is spreading through the ground,
through the water, and through the air. And a study by the
General Accounting Office, while it gives the standard assurance
that there is no immediate danger, recommends a crash program to
correct the situation and develop systematic standards for safe
disposal of radioactive waste.

Now, why all of this sudden concern about leakage of
radioactive contamination? And why does the spotlight on actual
leakage cases just happen to be on Kentucky? After all, there
are vastly more serious problems of this sort elsewhere in the
United States, for example, in New York State--but so why
Kentucky? Two reasons, my friends. For one thing, they are
using the opportunity to continue the nuclear "con game" that has
been pulled on you for years by assuring you even when there are
nuclear waste leakages that you don't really have to worry about
it. But, more importantly, in my monthly AUDIO LETTER No. 7 last
month I posed a direct challenge to the federal government to
either prove or disprove my charges; and I spelled out a fair,
objective way to do it. What is going on now is their answer to
my challenge by spreading stories about other kinds of
radioactive waste leakage in the general vicinity of Fort Knox,
and possibly by deliberately causing such releases--such as
occurred in the truck accident--they are feverishly tampering
with the evidence.

The program I suggested to use offsite measurements to detect
leakage from the Bullion Depository at Fort Knox would, as they
can now argue, no longer prove anything conclusively about my
charges because of these other radioactive leakages which
allegedly have also suddenly been discovered in the same region.
I, for one, would like to see the whole business about Fort Knox
laid to rest once and for all, and I know you would too. I know
that my charges about the gold and about the plutonium poison are
true; but for the sake of argument IF I were wrong, I would
rather be honestly proven wrong about any or all of them and be
made a laughingstock than to have the American people's worry
over this matter dragged out endlessly like this.

Whatever the truth is, I want you to know; but the Rockefeller
lackeys in the Government know only too well that the truth is
exactly what I have told you, and they don't want you to know.
They will do anything and everything to try to save themselves
regardless of how many other human beings they may doom in the
process. And so, my friends, this is the vicious reality behind
the smooth mask that our Rockefeller-controlled federal
government wears. We, the people, must bring the pressure to
bear that will cause these things to be honestly investigated and
corrected.

The United States is under the thumb of modern outlaws; and if
we do not bring them to justice, they will bring us and our
children to total ruin. So far the United States Congress has
not seen fit even to consider my charges about the gold, about
the plutonium, about anything! The problem is not that I don't
have the evidence, but that I have too much of it. The same
applies to the Justice Department, the General Accounting Office,
the White House, and so on, so on.

But recently a Congressman who heard my testimony in Congress
about the missing Fort Knox gold in April 1974 and who went to
Fort Knox in September 1974, gave us a tiny opening, whether
wittingly or unwittingly. His constituents have been pressing
him continuously for some answers about Fort Knox; and in recent
replies which were forwarded to me, he in effect challenged us to
do exactly what we have wanted to do for nearly two years--to
present our charges and evidence in a proper legal forum. Our
response is a six-page "Open Letter" by my able co-patriot, Mr.
Edward Durell of Berryville, Virginia. The letter is addressed
to Congressman John B. Conlan of Arizona--but it is open, because
based on past performance we have little reason for optimism that
he will take any constructive action unless he is forced to do so
by public pressure.

The letter presents charges which parallel completely, even in
legal form, the impeachment charges leveled at President Nixon by
the House of Representatives. It is a legal document, and YOU
are the nation-wide Grand Jury. Under our CONSTITUTION, it is
ultimately we, the people, who constitute the highest human
authority in our land, and it is UP TO YOU to decide. Do our
charges deserve an open, complete, honest investigation in a
proper legal forum or not? If so, it is UP TO YOU to return a
"Citizens Indictment" by demanding that your elected
representatives provide a legal forum through Congressional
investigation or formal Grand Jury proceedings.

Here now is Mr. Durell's letter to Congressman Conlan of
Arizona. I will be quoting from the letter from here on all the
way to Mr. Durell's signature. Mr. Durell's letter is dated
January 7, 1976:

"Dear Mr. Conlan,

Your letters of December 5, 1975, to Mrs. Mary Barrow and Mr.
Art Bentley both of Lake Havasu City, Arizona, have been sent to
me for comment. To that end I write direct to you, with copies
to them and other interested parties.

In your letter to Mrs. Barrow you state among other things
that, quote: 'Grand Juries are empaneled to investigate criminal
wrongdoing', and that if, quote: 'you personally have evidence of
crimes committed in connection with our nation's gold holdings,
please let me know so that I can put you directly in touch with
appropriate officials of the United States Justice Department who
would have jurisdiction in this matter.'

In your letter to Mr. Bentley you state among other things
that while you have, quote: 'some misgivings' about the gold
situation, quote: 'I can assure you that exposure to any
radioactive poison would have caused me serious illness. Neither
I nor anyone else who went to Fort Knox has suffered any such
illness.'

Please allow us firstly to answer your letter to Mr. Bentley.
It is common knowledge in nuclear medicine that if one is exposed
to alpha particle radiation of plutonium, death due to cancer can
come in a matter of months or years. It all depends upon dosage
level and duration of exposure. In this respect we would suggest
that you contact Dr. John Gofman, former professor of Medical
Physics emeritus, University of California at Berkeley; or listen
to him by way of a one-hour tape cassette obtainable from AUDIO
BOOKS, INC., P. O. Box 16428, Fort Worth, Texas, 76133; special
tape No. 2 for $6.00 postpaid.

(Editor's note--1981 address is:

The Dr. Beter AUDIO LETTER
Suite 5092, 1629 K Street, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20006.

Current price is: $7.50 postpaid.)

In this tape Dr. Gofman speaks on the effects of radioactive
poison, among other things.

In addition, over 18% increase in cancer deaths in the first
seven (7) months this year over last year has taken place in the
central-eastern states, which has left medical authorities in the
dark as to the cause. They felt they had made such tremendous
cancer advancements in the last few years, and then to have such
a high upsurge in the first seven months this year over last year
in that area alone, is baffling.

One more thing about this radioactive poison in the United
States Bullion Depository at Fort Knox--hereinafter called 'Fort
Knox.' We know from sources in the Intelligence industry that
this plutonium poison was part of the plutonium-239 stolen by
members of the Intelligence community in 1966 and that this most
deadly substance was processed in four plants--two in Kentucky,
one in North Dakota, and one in California--into radioactive
liquid poison. It was then taken--60 pounds each--to Peru,
Panama, Bolivia, and Argentina under cover of a multinational
cement corporation by a CIA officer, Harold Leroy White, for the
sole purpose of threatening to contaminate the United
States-planned and built water aqueduct systems in those
countries for political and economic pressure. Sixty pounds,
however, intended for use in Argentina, was brought back by Mr.
White and placed in the Central Core Vault at Fort Knox where it
has been stored ever since late 1968. The casks are now
corroding, causing leakage and contamination over the entire
areas east and southeast of Kentucky, and as far away as Cuba.
This contamination is endangering the lives of over 40-million
people in this country. Can we afford to allow these people to
be expendable?

The federal government has now publicly admitted our charges
that opium and morphine--150,000 pounds and 24,000 pounds
respectively-are stored at Fort Knox. Why will it not admit the
existence of the plutonium?

It is suggested that to do so might subject the Government to
thousands of legal actions involving hundreds of millions of
dollars under the Federal Tort Claims Act and/or the Price
Anderson Act, the 1954 Atomic Energy Act as amended, Title 42
Section 2011 and following for, quote: 'extraordinary nuclear
occurrence'--that is, quote: 'any event causing a discharge or
dispersal of source, special nuclear or by-product material from
its intended place of confinement in amounts off site or causing
radiation levels off site and which has resulted or will probably
result in substantial damages to persons off site or property off
site.'

And why will it not admit the loss of our gold reserves? For
the same reasons--legal actions including those criminal in
nature. And in the latter connection, we would like here to
pursue your suggestion to Mrs. Barrow and list the charges of the
high crimes committed relative to disappearance of the people's
gold reserves.

On behalf of the American people it is herein charged that the
United States Treasury Department--hereinafter called
'Treasury'--in violation of its Constitutional duty to protect
the people's gold and in violation of its Constitutional duty to
take care that the laws relative to the safeguarding and custody
of said gold be faithfully executed, has failed so to do in that
between January 1, 1961, and January 1, 1974, prior and
subsequent thereto, Treasury engaged itself through its
officers/agents and in concert with others in America's corridors
of financial power in a course of conduct or plan designed to
convert unto themselves the people's gold entrusted to it for
safekeeping for the avowed purpose of profiting unjust
enrichment; and in a course of conduct or plan designed to cover
up, conceal and protect those responsible and to conceal the
existence and scope of other unlawful covert activities.

The means used to implement this conduct or plan have included
one or more of the following:

1. Treasury has failed to render a true account of the amount of
gold shipped out from the United States Bullion Depositories from
1961 to 1968 under color of the 'London Gold Pool Agreement';

2. Treasury has failed to reveal the true prices, if any,
received for the sale of said gold or reveal the names of the
ultimate purchasers of said gold;

3. Treasury has failed to give a true account of the amount of
gold shipped out of the United States Bullion Depositories from
1968 to 1974 under color of an ad hoc committee composed of the
Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, the Chairman of the
Council of Economic Advisers, the Chairman of the White House
Council on International Economic Policy, the Secretary of State,
and the Secretary of Treasury, among others;

4. Treasury has issued a statement dated August 31, 1974,
purporting to list 24-million ounces of good delivery gold at
Fort Knox when in actual fact the Secretary of the Treasury
admitted December 3, 1974, that such listing is false or
misleading;

5. Treasury has taken, December 9, 1974, without lawful
authority, two-million ounces of gold from the Exchange
Stabilization Fund by a simple bookkeeping device and four days
later announced by way of the General Services Administration
that there would be an auction of two-million ounces of gold on
an 'as is' basis January 6, 1975. In addition, a Dutch auction
was held June 30, 1975, with the remainder of said gold based on
a price not considered best for the taxpayers of America;

6. Treasury has caused a statement to be issued April 11, 1975,
which is false or misleading in that it purports to list all of
the gold shipments out of Fort Knox when in actual fact such list
omitted among other things a shipment of gold consisting of four
(4) tractor-trailer loads on January 20, 1965, which shipment
consisted of 1.762-million ounces valued over sixty-one million
dollars ($61,000,000) at $35.00 per troy ounce--the par value for
official gold at that time;

7. Treasury has in its immediate possession and control the
necessary keys, combination numbers, and time-control data for
the vaults, depositories, and their mechanisms. It thus has the
highest duty to take care that its trust be faithfully executed,
but it has acted in a manner contrary to its trust and subversive
of responsible government to the great prejudice and to the
manifest injury of the people of the United States by acting in
concert with others to aid and abet, to surreptitiously remove
the gold under the cover of legal right;

8. Treasury has made false or misleading statements for the
purpose of deceiving the people of the United States into
believing that a thorough and complete inspection and audit have
been conducted with respect to allegations that Fort Knox
contains no significant amounts of gold and not accounted for, in
that an inspection trip to Fort Knox September 23, 1974, revealed
one (1) cell-like compartment, No. 33, to contain only
copper-hued bars. Mrs. Mary Brooks, the Director of the Mint,
Treasury, said, quote: 'It's all here.' Her statement is
analogous to the so-called Audit of October 1974 of only three
(3) of the cell-like compartments at Fort Knox, which Audit calls
the Report to be submitted to Congress February 10, 1975--also
based on a belief that, quote: 'It's all here.'

Further, the inference given by the inspection trip and the
Audit was that the gold at Fort Knox was of good delivery form
and the remaining ten (10) cell-like compartments were full of
good delivery gold;

9. Treasury is withholding relevant and material evidence or
information from the American people in total disregard or
violation of the Constitutional right of the people to know what
has happened to its gold reserves and to its right of freedom of
information for purposes unrelated to national security, the
enforcement of laws, or any other lawful functions of Treasury in
that the Central Core Vault at Fort Knox was concealed from the
inspection group of over 100 news media people, six (6)
Representatives, and one (1) Senator of the United States
Congress;

10. Treasury has unlawfully utilized its authority to cause the
General Accounting Office to fail to take care that the laws be
faithfully executed in that the General Accounting Office, a
legislative entity, was forced to have only two (2) of its own
people on a settlement committee to audit the alleged gold at
Fort Knox, whereas Treasury had thirteen (13) of its own people
on said committee;

11. Treasury has not caused to be made an annual physical
inventory of the people's gold since 1953. Thus Treasury has
failed to take care that Title 31 USC be faithfully executed by
failing to make the required annual physical inventories.

In all of this and more, Treasury has acted in a manner
contrary to its trust and subversive of Constitutional government
to the great prejudice of law and justice and to the manifest
injury of the people of the United States; wherefore, Treasury
through its officers, agents and others in concert with it, by
such conduct or plan, warrant such parties be brought before
appropriate legal authorities to answer these charges; and,
further, for the restitution of the people's gold except that
portion which is contaminated by radioactive poison in which case
said parties shall be ordered to pay the current market gold
price and for such other appropriate action as may be deemed just
and proper in the premises.

In support of the charges, please be informed that former
Congressman Frank Chelf's AFFIDAVIT dated April 7, 1975, in which
he deposes and says among other things, and I quote: 'that the
United States government was moving quietly as a church mouse out
of Fort Knox' and that the gold was, quote: 'constantly and
surreptitiously on the move.'

Fort Knox is located in former Congressman Chelf's
Congressional District. He further deposes and says that, quote:
'In response to my previous requests for gold removal
information, Treasury officials had been courteous and most
friendly but always non-committal or evasive.' Mr. Chelf had
earlier made the same charges on the floor of the House of
Representatives, but to no avail. (See Congressional Record page
15522 - August 21, 1963.)

Further, Lt. General John L. Ryan, Jr., US Army (Ret.), in his
statement of September 26, 1975 before Congressman Otis G. Pike
in his office, has proved the existence of the Central Core Vault
and in fact has drawn sketches of it. In view of this, there is
no valid reason for the Secretary of Treasury to continue to deny
the existence of the Central Core Vault at Fort Knox unless there
is something deeply secret stored therein. There admittedly may
have been the necessity for some secrecy in the 1960's when all
of the gold at Fort Knox was stored in the Central Core Vault.
Why the secrecy now, since the Comptroller General has stated on
February 10, 1975, quote: 'As of June 30, 1974 about 55% of the
gold claimed by the Treasury was stored in thirteen (13) sealed
compartments at the United States Bullion Depository at Fort
Knox, Kentucky'?

As further evidence, we call your attention to the balance
sheets of the 12 Federal Reserve Banks, which carry Gold
Certificate accounts as an asset to reflect a stated amount of
gold which, in turn, is reflected as a liability on Treasury
balance sheets; however it is submitted these Gold Certificate
accounts reflect assets--gold--which do not in fact exist in
Treasury vaults. This same situation prevailed in 1943 relative
to silver when, quote: '14,000 tons of silver from the Treasury
reserve backing American paper money was secretly taken from
Treasury vaults although carried publicly on the Treasury balance
sheets', cited in "Tragedy and Hope" by Professor Carroll
Quigley, page 855, 1966/1974.

We could go on, but suffice it to say that Treasury during our
18 months investigations has not moved to refute by evidence the
basic charges outlined above. Meanwhile our economy is suffering
by those twin disasters, inflation and deflation--high prices
with high unemployment--initially caused by the disposing of our
gold reserves in secret and its attendant game plan.

Mr. C. Gordon Tether in his December 11, 1975, article, quote:
'A NEW TWIST OF FORT KNOX SAGA' in the Financial Times of London
stated, quote:

'But whatever the cost in terms of loss of face, might not the
United States authorities be well advised to do whatever is
necessary to demonstrate that there is no Fort Knox cover-up? In
the light of what has happened in the United States during the
past few years, deeds inevitably now speak louder than words; and
the refusal to prove that they have nothing to hide, is
inevitably destined to go on fostering precisely the opposite
impression.'

Considering all of the above, would you please be so kind as
to put the undersigned and Dr. Peter Beter, as you offered to do
for Mrs. Barrow, quote: 'directly in touch with appropriate
officials of the United States Justice Department who would have
jurisdiction in this matter'? I am authorized to state that Dr.
Beter concurs with the contents of this letter and is fully
prepared to give further evidence before a United States Grand
Jury and any Congressional investigating committee in
confirmation of the charges herein cited, among others.

Further, I would suggest you personally bring this letter to
the attention of the Chairman of the House Banking Committee of
which you are a member, for appropriate action. Failure on your
part to do so will lend credence to the fact you, yourself, have
become part and parcel of the cover-up on this vital matter; and
failure on the part of the Chairman of said Committee to take
such action will further lend credence to the fact that he
himself is in league with those underlying forces at work in
America's corridors of financial power.

Most respectfully,
EDWARD DURELL."

Topic #2--In my AUDIO BOOK No. 2 on "THE FORT KNOX GOLD SCANDAL
AND WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU", I warned you to watch for the Stock
Market crash signal, meaning general unemployment in the range of
20 to 25%. This was originally targeted by the Rockefeller
Brothers for the fall of 1975, but their schedules have been
increasingly upset by their preoccupation with the Fort Knox
Scandal "cover-up" and by the anti-CIA actions of Indira Gandhi
last summer. Even so, they are working frantically to get the
pieces of their plan together again.

Here in America, the Government officially says that
unemployment in November 1975 was 8.3%; but my own confidential
information, direct from sources within the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, is that the true figure for November was over
15%--and still increasing! Therefore the real unemployment
levels are now moving closer and closer to the Stock Market crash
signal levels I revealed nearly a year ago.

Meanwhile the Dow Jones averages lately are streaking upward
artificially in a dream world of their own, totally divorced from
reality. The stage is being set for a dramatic visible plunge
downward if the Rockefeller Brothers cut the cable on the Stock
Market elevator.

And New York City, supposedly safe from outright bankruptcy by
federal loans, is already far behind in its schedule for raising
funds to stay afloat under that loan program. At the same time,
the Nation's banks are again the subject of widespread concern,
and no wonder. Recently front page stories have deliberately
been planted in major Rockefeller-controlled newspapers about the
alleged shakiness of the mammoth Chase Manhattan Bank and in even
larger First National City Bank of New York, both of them
Rockefeller controlled. This is partly an attempt to lower the
Rockefeller profile by saying: "See, we have problems too." But
more importantly, it is a deliberate effort to undermine
confidence in our whole banking system. Banks and their
customers should therefore watch for trouble. A publication
which is doing an outstanding job of keeping on top of the
banking situation as well as many other matters is the Daily News
Digest, Box 27496, Phoenix, Ariz. 85061

This month's meeting of the International Monetary Fund in
Jamaica produced no communique, no general agreement, only
reflecting continued confusion there.

Pressed by the smoldering Fort Knox Scandal on one hand and
the imminent war in the Middle East on the other, the primary
goal of the Rockefeller Brothers has now shifted to just one
thing--to abolish the official price of gold in America so that
the non-existent American gold hoard can be quietly dropped from
Treasury and Federal Reserve balance sheets. Most of the IMF
gold is beyond their grasp for the time being.

SO-CALLED "DETENTE" AND THE IGNORED PROPHETIC WARNINGS OF GEORGE
WASHINGTON

Topic #3

Last summer Indira Gandhi cracked down on the CIA to stop the
Rockefeller take-over of her country, India. Existing war
preparations were immediately diverted to a new direction, and
since that time a major new Asian war has been brewing. In my
monthly AUDIO LETTER No. 6 two months ago, I spelled out the
basic strategy for this war, including the role to be played by
the Middle East conflict in paving the way for the Asian War.
Plans are proceeding rapidly.

A few days ago Japanese Prime Minister Miki fell into a Soviet
trap. Reacting to brusk and uncooperative Soviet treatment, he
announced that Japan will sign a treaty with Red China that
includes the anti-Soviet hegemony clause desired by China. At
the same time, as you may have noticed in news reports, American
business men are rapidly packing up and leaving Japan, supposedly
because their Japanese understudies are now ready to manage
things themselves--but actually because the Rockefeller Brother
interests are bailing out in advance of war, just as happened a
few months ago in Lebanon.

To set the stage for the big Asian War, hostilities are first
to break out in the Middle East to provide an excuse for a
limited American nuclear strike to cap off Arab OPEC oil wells.
This will result in cementing the Sino-Japanese alliance for war,
neutralizing Europe and producing real suffering there, and
causing gas rationing in a major body blow to our wobbly economy
here in the United States.

The terrorist attack on OPEC oil ministers in Vienna last
month, engineered by our own CIA, was supposed to get the ball
rolling in all of this. Two key oil ministers were supposed to
be killed, leading to escalating reprisals and war--but the job
was botched. For bungling this top priority operation, the man
in charge, Richard Welch, the CIA station chief in Athens, was
judged unreliable and executed by the CIA itself.

And now Lebanon, which was primarily a distraction earlier,
has now become the new springboard by which the broader Middle
East conflict is to be enlarged. All of this, my friends, is
part and parcel of so-called "detente" with Soviet Russia on the
way to a world collectivist dictatorship. Rockefeller Brothers
internationalism, which is always portrayed by them as the path
to peace, is actually a prescription for war, destruction, and
enslavement. To them it is "progress."

On December 31, 1975, President Ford said on the eve of our
Bicentennial Year, and I quote: "Liberty is the most precious
possession of our past." But, fellow citizens, it is up to us to
restore liberty to our future as well. Had we simply been
heeding George Washington's wise warning to avoid permanent
foreign alliances, the horrors I have been discussing would not
exist. In his Farewell Address, he also left us with many other
equally wise observations that have direct application today.
Washington's words and example helped launch the greatest nation
on earth, and they can help get it moving forward again IF WE
WILL ALLOW THEM TO. In this, our Bicentennial Year, I plan to
return frequently to the forward-looking sage advice left to us
by our great first President.

Until next month, this is Dr. Beter. Thank you, and may God
bless each and every one of you.
