CHAPTER FOURTEEN
Franco

To understand what happened in Spain in 1936, one must have at least a general idea of the type of man Franco really is.  Franco entered the Spanish army seriously intending to make it his career.  His life in the army reads like a romance.  He distinguished himself after he was appointed to the Spanish Legion.  He turned the defeat inflicted on General Sylvestre by the Moors, into final victory.  Not only did he lead his troops fearlessly, but he inspired in them great confidence because of his genius regarding strategy.  He also earned the respect of his foes, because of his military progress, and his sound administrative policies in Morocco.  The Moors finally looked upon him as almost divine.  They came to call him “The Victorious”;  “Chief of Chiefs”;  “Brave as a Lion”.  The above facts explain why they rallied around him when he asked for their loyalty in July 1936.

Franco is not spoken of as being popular with his brother generals.  He did, however, have the respect of most of them.  It was this fact that prevented the Popular Front Government being turned into a totalitarian dictatorship.

Azana, Caballero, and Carlos Prieto, dominated the Popular Front Government.  Senor Gil Robles, and Calvo Sotelo, led the Rightist opposition.

When Sotelo revealed in the “Cortes” that between February and June 1936 there had been 113 general strikes, 218 partial strikes, 284 buildings, 171 churches, 69 clubs and 10 newspapers offices burned, and over 3,300 assassinations committed, Casares Quiroga, Premier at the time, jumped to his feet and angrily retorted “You will be held personally responsible for the emotion your speech will cause.”

Dolores Ibarruri, a Communist, named “Pasionaria” because of her inflammatory speeches and fanatical actions, was a member of the Spanish Cortes.  She jumped to her feet and, pointing her finger at Sotelo, literally screamed :  “That man has made his last speech.”  She proved to be right.  On July 13th, 1936, Senor Calvo Sotelo was dragged from his home by fifteen Assault Guards under command of Captain Don Angel Moreno.  He was taken to a near-by churchyard and murdered.  It was this event that caused many of the Spanish generals to break their oath to the Grand Orient and ask Franco to take over leadership in Spain.  Dolores Ibarruri was a Stalinist agent in Spain.  She had been entrusted with the task of corrupting army officials, organizing and directing raids on government armouries, and arming the revolutionary forces in Spain.  She performed her various tasks most efficiently.

Assault Guards raided the houses of many other prominent anti-communists following Sotelo’s murder, but most of them had been warned and made their escape.

On the day of the elections in February 1936, General Franco telephoned General Pozas, who was then in charge of the Civil Guard.  He warned him that the Communists elected to the Cortes planned to stir up mob violence in the hope that they could develop a revolutionary effort for the purpose of over-throwing the republican government.  General Pozas informed General Franco that he thought his fears were exaggerated.  General Franco next telephoned General Molero, the Minister for War.  He informed him of the threatening danger.  Franco suggested that he be allowed to declare Martial Law, Franco drew up the necessary orders which would give him the authority to prevent excesses and mob violence.  Only the signatures of the Council of Ministers were necessary to enable him to preserve law and order, and protect the republican government from revolutionary action.  But Portela, who was then acting as premier, pleaded that he was too old to put the Cabinet’s decision into practice.  Franco retorted “You have brought Spain to this sorry pass.  It is your duty now to try and save her.”

General Franco was given orders to proceed to the Canary Islands.  The order actually meant his virtual exile from Spain.

Before he left, General Franco had a conference with Generals Mole, and Varela.  They assured him, they felt certain, that once the other generals who had joined the Grand Orient Military Lodges, knew the truth, most of them would break with the Grand Orient and accept his leadership.  Before the meeting broke up a secret means of communication between Mola and Franco had been arranged.  Immediately Franco departed for the Canary Islands Stalin’s agents renewed their activities.

On June 23rd, 1936, Franco wrote a long letter to the Minister for War in which he once again pointed out specific dangers.^[1]  But these warnings were ignored as the others had been.  It was obvious that the Communist members of the republican government were able to dominate its policy and actions.

The murder of Calve Sotelo on July 13th decided Franco.  He sent a coded message to the generals who were sworn to fight to save Spain from becoming a Russian satellite state.  Amongst those Franco contacted were Mola, Goded, Fanjul, Sanjurjo, Saliquet, some officers of the Spanish Navy, and Queipo de Llano.  After the message was sent Franco flew from the Canaries to Tetuan where he knew he could rely upon the loyalty of the Moroccan troops.

On July 21st, 1936 Franco issued his proclamation which defined the issue at stake in the least possible number of words.  It read :  “It is the duty of every man to enter this definite struggle between Russia and Spain.”  Thus started the civil war.  Professor Unamuno explained the issue in even fewer words.  He said : “It is a struggle of Christianity against barbarism.”  He should have said “Against Illuminism”.

Other evidence was obtained to prove that Stalin’s Comintern plotted to subjugate Spain to bring about a total war between Britain and her allies, on the one side, and Germany and her allies on the other.  There is the report of the meeting of the Political Secretariat of the Comintern which took place January 25, 1938.  The purpose of the meeting was to discuss ways and means to develop the revolutionary effort in Spain and North Africa.  Attending the meeting were representatives of the Profintern, and the Foreign branches of the G.P.U. (The Secret Police).  All of Moscow’s most experienced revolutionary leaders were present; Iejov, head of the secret section of the Comintern;  Georges Dimitrov of the Reichstag Fire infamy;  head of the League of the Godless, and the Free Thinkers League;  the then Secretary of the Communist International;  Schick, Manuilsky, and Lozovsky of the Profintern;  Popescu, Weintrauben, Gourovitch, Liemann, Turrini, Adami, and Valdez, who represented the Soviet of Foreign Affairs in the political bureau of the Comintern (These are the names of men who all took an active part in spreading the sphere of Communist influence around the world in later years).  After the meeting opened Dimitrov gave a fiery speech.  He denounced the lack of missionary vigour among the special military envoys who had been sent to Spain to help corrupt the Popular Front Government and direct the military operation of the Loyalist armies.  Their action he said :  “Has not had sufficient stimulus, and revolutionary elan, on the general European masses.  The results obtained have not justified the heavy risks taken.  THE PRINCIPAL STRUGGLE, WHICH IS TO BRING ABOUT AN ARMED CONFLICT BETWEEN TWO GROUPS OF CAPITALISTIC STATES, HAS NOT BEEN REACHED.”  Then he went on to advocate “The Soviet military commandant in Spain should pass under the control of the Comintern emissaries, like the ambassadors, who know how to impregnate him with the necessary revolutionary feeling.”^[2]

In the Civil War in Spain the propaganda issued at the time convinced the average person that a small group of generals in Spain had organized a revolt to overthrow the Republican Popular Front Government and establish a military dictatorship.  The Popular Front Forces named themselves Loyalists.  Franco Forces called themselves Nationalists.  The Loyalists were comprised of all political factions Left of centre.  The Nationalists contained all political factions Right of Centre.

The Communists were divided into two groups ... those who intended to turn the Proletarian Dictatorship into a Stalinist Totalitarian State, and those who wished to make the Spanish Soviet a unit in the International of Soviet Republics as advocated by the Marxism theory.  The Nationalist Forces included men who had sponsored the Carlist movement which, ever since 1837, had had as its cause the restoration of the Spanish Throne to the descendants of Don Carlos.  The Carlists were located in the Navarre province and they supported Franco’s Nationalist Army simply because they didn’t intend to tolerate Communism in Spain.

On the Right also were the Falangists, the extreme Rightists among whom there were undoubtedly quite a number of the German type of Nazi who believed in using Total War to subdue their Leftist enemies.  With a situation of this kind it is understandable that those on the Right accused all those on the Left of being Communists, while all those on the Left accused all those Right of centre of being Fascist.  Most horrible atrocities, including torture, mutilation, rape, and the execution of thousands of innocent victims, were committed by the Communists as part of the accepted pattern of the Reign of Terror.  A few extremists on the Franco side committed atrocities also.  All civil wars seem to turn a great number of men into inhuman brutes who descend below the level of brute beasts once the blood lust has been aroused in them.  Civil War cannot be justified.  Those who advocate revolutionary wars should be executed.  The evidence goes to show that the king of Spain in 1931, and General Franco in 1936, did everything in their power to avoid fighting a civil war.

Franco did not call upon the citizens of Spain to rally around him until he had exhausted every other means of preventing the Communist coup taking place on July 26th, 1936.  The professional Army in Spain had been reduced greatly in numbers.  It had been replaced by a National Police Force controlled by the Leftist government.  It is extraordinary that Franco’s bid to defeat the Communist plot did not fail, because post-war investigations revealed that in 1936 the armed forces were riddled with traitors, both officers and men, who had been placed in key positions by the agents of Moscow working within the Popular Front Government in Spain.  On July 21st, 1936, the Moscow directed organization for taking over the government in Spain was complete.

Franco knew that in one day Julio Alvarez del Vayo, who was Foreign Minister in the republican government, and Commissar-General, appointed hundreds of political commissars to the republican army.  The majority of these men were Communists.  Vayo did this without consulting the Premier.  The commissars compelled soldiers to join the Communist Party, offering them advantages, and promotion, if they did, and they threatened persecution by every means in their power if they did not.  Luis Araqistain, ex-ambassador of the Spanish Republic in Paris, published this fact in the New York Times May 19th, 1939.  It was proved to be true.

Indalecio Prieto was Spanish Socialist deputy, and minister of National Defence, during the Spanish Civil War.  He helped direct the war against Franco.  In a report published in Paris in 1939 entitled :  “How and Why I left the Ministry of National Defence”, he said :  “It is difficult to be on guard because there are Communists occupying confidential positions who, so as to avoid suspicion, are ordered to hide their affiliation, and sometimes ordered to conceal it by joining other parties.  Dr. Juan Negrin was one of these.  He was one of the most powerful men in Spain during the Civil War.”  Prieto wrote of him :  “Because I refused to obey orders from Moscow, Juan Negrin expelled me from the government over which he presided on April 5th, 1938.  I occupied the post of Minister of National Defence in his government.  Two simultaneous actions were initiated against me;  one was entrusted to the Russian secret police, and military men who operated in our country, and the other to the Spanish Communists ... The Russians ordered and the Spanish Communists obeyed.”

Dr. Juan Negrin claims he was, and is, not a Communist, but it was he who ordered that 7,000 boxes of Spanish gold be delivered to Stalin.  The boxes were loaded in the ships “Kine”, “Neve”, and “Volgiles” — All three displayed the Soviet Flag.  Jose Velasco, and Arturo Candela, accompanied the shipments as persons of trust to Odessa.  Everything was done undercover and other members of the Popular Front government were not cognizant of the situation.  During Negrin’s term of office three Communists were appointed as under-secretaries of defence, and thus were the true masters of the republican army, navy, and air force.^[3]

Largo Caballero was a Communist but, when he refused to obey the order given him by Moscow’s emissaries they overruled his orders even when he was serving his presidential term.  When he tried to rectify his own mistakes, he found it was too late.  How Moscow’s agents in foreign lands obtain such an absolute control of Leftist leaders is explained by Prieto.  He wrote :  “The majority of the military commands of the Popular Front government were finally occupied by Communists, and in their hands were the most important reins of power.  How could that phenomenon happen ?  Through a system of coercion graduated between personal advancement for those who bowed their heads, and the murder of those who rebelled.”

Theo Rogers in his “Spain; a Tragic Journey” makes reference to the capture of documents which proved beyond doubt that a full scale revolution had been planned to break out in July 1936.  Rogers wrote :  “Discovery amongst militant Communists, and Anarchists, of documents and plans, showed that a carefully schemed plot had been matured for an outbreak which would upset even the central government in Madrid and establish a Soviet Dictatorship.”  The Work of the Illuminati.

Roger’s statement was proved to be true.  Evidence was produced to prove that both General Franco, and General Mola, knew as early as April 1936 that a Communist coup was planned first for May 1st;  then set back to June 29th;  and then set back again to July 22nd.  The delays were ordered to give those who were entrusted with putting the plan of revolt into effect, more time to complete the final necessary details.

The whole world should have known of the Moscow directed plot against Spain because the final orders were intercepted while being passed by the Comintern to the leaders of the revolutionary movement in Spain.  The documents were given to the Echo de Paris, which published them in April 1936.  The Echo de Paris article reads :

“TEXT OF INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE RED MILITIA”

“These instructions to the heads of the Spanish Red Militia ... do not emanate from a Spanish Central Organization, but from the Technical Services in Paris, which sent them to Spain at that date.  These Technical Services are those of the French Communist party, working in close co-operation with the Comintern, and its delegates in France.  The document, which we are publishing, is in the hands of the government;  we were not the parties who communicated it to them.  We are convinced that M. Daladier, Minister of War and Defence, has given orders for preventive measures of defence, and protection, to be taken.”

The abbreviated text is as follows :

1.  Reinforce shock troops and guards in barracks, and supply them with automatic pistols.  These shock troops and guards are members of the Communist party serving in the permanent forces and reserves.

2.  These troops will be placed in communication with the Groups who are to break into the barracks.  The latter will be in uniform, and under the orders of our officers in whom we have complete confidence.

3.  When the fight starts our officers will be given admittance with their groups secretly.  They will contact the respective committees and carry out the pre-arranged plan of attack inside the barracks.

4.  The provisional committees, in the barracks, shall renew every two days, their lists of enemies, neutrals, sympathizers, and experts.  When the barracks have been taken over, those classed as enemies, including in particular all commanders and officers, shall be rapidly eliminated, and without hesitation.

5.  Each member of the committees shall be provided with a list of the names of individuals who are to be murdered by himself personally.

6.  After the enemies have been disposed of, neutrals shall be subjected to severe teats in order to kill in them any hesitation habitual in such undecided characters.

7.  The committees handling the neutrals will make the necessary arrangements for the vigilance groups outside to enter the barracks on the pretext of assisting to put down the rebellion.

8.  This has little importance.

9.  Those detailed to liquidate generals on the active list shall consist of ten men with revolvers.  The generals have two adjutants, and a secretary, who must be murdered in their own homes.  Those detailed to perform these killings shall not withdraw in face of any obstacle or opposition, and they shall eliminate anyone who opposes them regardless of sex or age.

10.  Those detailed to eliminate generals not holding command shall consist of three men groups and shall carry out their duties as outlined in preceding paragraph.

11 and 12.  Details how houses and sites, in strategic positions, must be procured by Communist militants, and secretly armed and fortified in order to ambush troops who may succeed in escaping from barracks.  The instructions read :  “As military officers have protected cars, groups of our militants must proceed to strategic points such as cross-roads, in cars and trucks;  armed with machine guns so as to prevent help reaching those inside the cities.  Lorries shall carry supplies of grenades.”

13.  Our militants shall quickly put on the uniform previously obtained and they shall be served with rifles.

14.  When the rebellion breaks out our militant groups, wearing uniforms of the Civil Guards, and of the Assault Guard, and equipment already prepared for them, shall arrest all heads of all political parties under pretext of the necessity of doing so for their personal protection.  Once in custody the procedure for the elimination of generals not holding command shall be carried out.  Uniformed groups shall also arrest and detain important capitalists whose names appear in appendix "B" of Circular No. 32.

15.  Violence shall not be used against these capitalists except if they resist;  they shall however be forced to hand over the balance of the current accounts at the banks, and their securities.  In the event of concealment they shall he completely eliminated, including their families, without exception.  It is desirable that Cells shall be worked in on their staffs as domestics, or mechanics, as they can be very useful.^[4]

16.  Can be skipped.

17.  With regard to members of the armed forces who claim to be sympathizers the same tactics shall be followed as was done in Russia.  First use their services and then eliminate them as enemies.  For our effort to be successful, and permanent, a neutral officer or man is better than one who has betrayed his uniform because his life was in danger.  It is likely he would betray us also if provided with the opportunity.

18.  Instructions to our militia regarding mobilization, movements of transportation, use of arms, and marksmanship, must be intensified.^[5]

19.  Militia posted at cross roads must eliminate all defeated troops trying to escape.

20.  Machine gun posts shall be located in premises which cover the front and rear of all armouries, police stations, and fire halls and all approaches to, and exits from, the cities, and if, in spite of this, the enemy are able to get out, they shall be attacked with hand-grenades.

21.  Other militia shall be placed in armoured lorries in strategical positions within the cities not more than one kilometer apart, they also shall be armed with machine guns.

22.  Liaison shall be by light cars, and cyclists, who shall be armed with revolvers.

23.  Is of no special importance.

24.  The most intimate details concerning the lives and characters of all neutrals and sympathizers must be obtained and carefully recorded, including their family requirements, and the influence which love of their children, and desire for these necessary requirements, may exercise over them.  If any of our militia, or any of the neutrals, and sympathizers, show any kind of weakness, or resistance to orders, they must be denounced to the highest committee of the organization as being guilty of complicity and/or reaction.

25.  Our militia must be organized to work away from their own homes and localities because experience has taught us that at the last moment, through sentimentalism, men working in their own localities, and amongst their families, and friends, have failed to carry out our plan with proper enthusiasm.

26.  All owners of depots of goods and merchandise shall be regarded as important capitalists.  These depots must be organized to serve the proletariat through the administrative groups.^[6]

27.  Deals with the question of using STARVATION as a means of reducing opposition quickly, and confirms what has been said regarding the use of this weapon in national disputes, and international warfare.  It reads :  “During the first week, and until the constitution becomes normal the supply of food and drink to the bourgeois is prohibited.”

28.  Reads – Stock of foods in barracks, and in the hands of our enemies, which cannot be captured, must be rendered useless by mixing paraffin or other substances with them.

Since these orders were issued the revolutionary leaders in all countries have been given special instruction to make careful plans to deal with the members of the police and fire-departments because experience has shown that the majority of these civic employees “remain loyal to their bourgeois bosses”.  The action recommended is to :

1.  Infiltrate into the two forces.

2.  Corrupt the rank and file.

3.  Party members are urged to purchase or rent properties covering the approaches to both back and front of police stations, and fire halls, so the member, can be eliminated as they change shifts.  The hour to revolt is to coincide with the time the police change shifts.

The orders which were given to the leaders of the Communist party in Spain detailed how they were to take over a11 public utilities and public services as well as civic administration.  The objective was to obtain, in the shortest possible time, full and absolute control of all food supplies, and communication systems.

Revolutionary Orders seized at Majorca in October, 1936 were translated by Jacques Bardoux who afterward wrote “Chaos in Spain”.  They were on their way to revolutionary leaders in Spain.

COMRADE PRESIDENT

Author’s Comment

Recent history has proved that the instructions given by the Illuminati through Moscow for the subjugation of Spain have since been brought up to date, and carried out in all countries in Europe which have been subjugated since 1936.  There is no reason to believe that the 5th Column in Canada, and the U.S.A., is less thoroughly organized.  The 5th Column is ready to carry out the Illuminati’s orders when those who direct the World Revolutionary movement consider the time opportune.  There is ample evidence to prove that the members of the Communist party in Canada, and the U.S.A., have, since 1948, been practising speedy evacuation from large cities and industrial areas so they could be in the country on picnics, and other reasonable excuses, during the initial stages of a Soviet bombing raid.  They plan to return and take over while conditions are chaotic and the inhabitants are still in a state of panic.

While it is necessary to check Illuminism in Europe and Asia, it will be a tremendous, and costly, error if we fail to realize the full extent of the danger of their 5th Column.  We must remove our internal danger or all our plans for civic emergency defence will be useless.  We must deal with the enemy within first, then our defence plans, and other matters, will fit smoothly into gear unhampered by traitors and saboteurs.  The fact to remember is that Communists are used to start the revolt.  Those who lead the Communists then form a dictatorship of the Proletariat, which in turn is taken over by the agentur of the Illuminati.

1 The details can be obtained by reading Arrara’s Franco.

2 Reported in Gringoire issue February 11th, 1938.

3 The theft of this gold is still an international problem in 1955.  Franco demands that the Soviets return the gold.

4 This order protected the bankers and capitalists who were working as agents of the Illuminati in exactly the same way in which similar order protected the Rothschilds in the French revolution.

5 In 1946 the author reported to the proper authorities that .303 rifles had been imported into Canada as scrap;  in the same manner Canada’s Cabinet Ministers permitted arms to be shipped to the Middle East as scrap in 1956.

6 This order also goes to show the Illuminati are the real leaders of a revolutionary effort.  They are always in the top-levels of Governments, Society, Industry and the Armed Forces.  The workers, the Mob, are simply the ‘Pawns in the Game’.  They are used and then subdued.  Prove this to them and the Communist plot will fail. —Author.

7 It was after these orders had been issued that the date to revolt was changed to July 22nd.

8 The above information was made available to the ‘Free Press of the World’ by Free Lance writers and accredited correspondents as soon as it became available, but it was never published.  Why ?  —Author.

CHAPTER FIFTEEN
The revolutionary Reign of Terror

Study of the methods employed by the Illuminati’s agents in Spain, is of great value to those who would protect their country from the danger of similar tribulations.  Revolutionary leaders have Cells occupy key positions in jails, prisons, and asylums.  Their purpose is to control these institutions so they can release the anti-social elements under detention, and use them as shock troops during the revolt.  In every revolution to date the anti-social prisoners, and the criminally insane, have been used to arouse the blood-lust in the mob and thus introduce the “Reign of Terror” which, the revolutionary leaders calculate, will cause the general public to surrender in the quickest possible time.^[1]

The prison policy in Madrid was influenced greatly by the advice given the authorities in the Popular Front government by ‘General’ Kleber, the Canadian-Russian, who, after taking theoretical training in the Lenin Institute in Moscow, was sent to Spain to serve Stalin and obtain practical experience in revolutionary warfare.

As soon as the Popular Front government took office in March 1936, the extreme Leftist members insisted that an Amnesty Bill be passed, granting liberty to all those who had taken part in the Asturian rebellion.  In addition to this small army of revolutionaries, 30,000 others, who had been arrested as Communists, were given their liberty.  After July 17th, another 40,000 common criminals were released on condition they would bear arms in the Loyalist army.  Revolutionary leaders liquidate most of the common criminals after they have served their purpose.  By doing so, they convince a great many people that the atrocities committed during the revolution were the crimes of irresponsibles acting on their own initiative, and not in accordance with a pre-conceived plan of terrorism.

These were the conditions existing when General Franco decided he would try to save Spain from Communistic tyranny.  Many books have been written telling how Franco, and a mere handful of Spanish generals, finally managed to defeat the Communist plot.  It is an exciting story of courage, and fortitude, and great faith in their Christian Crusade.  As soon as Franco issued his proclamation, the Red undersecretaries for army, navy, and air ordered the communist cells to liquidate all officers listed as enemies.  This task was carried out with great thoroughness.  Communist cells had been placed in the mechanical, communications, and signals branches of the services.  This proved the organizers were sticking to the pattern laid down for the English, French, Russian, and German revolts.

Taken by surprise, nearly two-thirds of the officers were murdered cold-bloodedly during the initial stages of the attack.  The mutineers tried to convince other ranks and ratings that they were carrying out the government’s orders, and executing officers who had been convicted as enemies of the Popular Front government.

Many men would not believe what they were told.  Before long it was not uncommon for one warship to be seen firing at a range of only a few yards into another.  In one case, the fore-turret was manned by Reds and the after turret of the same ship manned by anti-reds.  The massacres which started aboard the ships spread to the dock-yards and the cities in which they were located.

There might have been some excuse for the drastic action taken against the officers who could be expected to take sides with Franco, but it is impossible to excuse the terrorism which the Communists, acting as soldiers and police of the Popular Front government inflicted upon the unarmed, and unsuspecting populace.  The imposition of terrorism proved, at the cost of hundreds of thousands of innocent lives, that Lenin’s policy had been accepted.  He ruled that terrorism had to accompany every violent effort to overthrow a government because terrorism was the most economic method of subjugating the masses quickly and thoroughly.

It must be remembered that the leaders of a revolution don’t consider the effort entirely wasted if it doesn’t end in a proletarian dictatorship.  Every revolt against constituted government and lawful authority is considered by those who plot and plan revolutionary efforts as a step in the right direction.  If the effort falls short of success that is bad, but not hopeless.  It doesn’t matter how many people are killed.  They are just pawns in the game.  They are expendable.  It is extraordinary how few of the top-level revolutionary leaders get killed during a rebellion.^[2]  It is accepted as good revolutionary technique, to sacrifice the masses and preserve the members of the Illuminati, for they are to govern the new order.  Even in ordinary strikes the Reds usually stir up the trouble, and then sneak away.  They leave the other workers to do the actual fighting with the police or militia.

The following facts are given to prove that during a revolution everyone who is not a party member or a fellow traveller, may expect no mercy of any kind.  Even Fellow Travellers are liquidated after they have been used to advantage.

Prior to July, 1936, the directors of the W.R.M. had literally flooded Madrid with agents.  Moses Rosenberg arrived as Moscow’s ambassador to Madrid.  Anteneff Avseenko arrived in Barcelona.  Dimitrov arrived to personally conduct the religious persecutions planned to follow the Communist Coup.  During the Civil War Rosenberg ruled as tzar of Madrid.  Avseenko assumed command of the Catalan Red Army.  Rosenberg organized the Chekas in Spain and saw that they carried out their work of spying out more and more victims.

Moscow’s agents organized “Purification Squads”.  Officially their duty was to seek out Fascists but secretly they liquidated all those who had been previously listed as reactionaries to the Illuminati’s plan for subjugation of Spain.  These lists had been compiled by Communist spies who had been worked into the Union of Concierges; (house and apartment janitors) the tax departments, the Postal Services, and other public offices.  The lists of those to be liquidated were very complete because Moscow’s spies, some disguised as scissors and knife grinders, had covered every district, street by street and house by house.  All citizens were listed according to their political, labour, social, and religious standing and affiliations.  When the order for the Reign of Terror to start was given, the Communists worked with the sureness, the ferocity, and the thoroughness, of starved brutes.  Stalin had once stated :  “It is better that a hundred innocent people die than one reactionary should escape.”  They obeyed this order with devilish persistency.

So others who live in countries not yet subjugated may understand what happens during a reign of terror, some actual atrocities will be described.

On July 17th, 1936, a group of Communists wearing the uniforms of government troops called at the Dominican Convent in Barcelona.  The leader informed the Mother Superior that because mob violence was feared he had orders to escort the sisters to a place of safety.  The sisters gathered together their few belongings and, unsuspectingly, accompanied the soldiers who took them to the suburbs where they murdered them all.  The leader callously remarked afterwards, “We needed the building.  We didn’t want to muss it up before we occupied it.^[3]

Senor Salvans was a known anti-Communist.  Three times purification squads visited his home in Barcelona.  When the third visit produced no information regarding his whereabouts, the Reds murdered the whole family of eight.  That vile deed was performed in accordance with paragraphs 15 and 16 of the instructions already referred to.

One of the most senseless acts of violence ever committed in the name of “Liberty ... Equality ... Fraternity”, was the murder of sixteen lay-brothers who worked voluntarily as male nurses in the largest hospital in Barcelona.  Their only crime was that they belonged to a religious order.  The fact that they nursed all who were sick, regardless of class, colour, or creed, made no difference to those who ordered their “liquidation”. E.M. Godden, who published Conflict in Spain, on page 72 reported :  “The slaughter of the living was accompanied by derision for the dead.  During the last week of July, 1936, the bodies of nuns were exhumed from their graves and propped up outside the walls of their convents.  Obscene, and offensive, placards were attached to their bodies.”

My cousin, Tom Carr, was a Mining Engineer in Spain from 1919 till 1938.  He was married to the daughter of Mr. Allcock, the American Consul of Huelva.  One of Caballero’s 5th Columnists had been elected mayor of Huelva.  When Moscow gave the word, he turned over the civic administration to the Communists.  Their first act was to torture, and then murder all the priests.  The nuns were stripped naked and driven from the convents into the streets to provide sport for the revolutionaries.^[4]

Godden also states that he interviewed two English women who only escaped molestation because they were foreigners.  These two women told Godden they had been forced to witness a mob of men and women act like fanatical dervishes.  In the first instance the Reds tortured and mocked a priest before they finally hung his dismembered body and limbs from a statue of the Blessed Virgin.  In the second instance the mob drilled a hole through the body of a young priest and then, while he was still living, transfixed him with a crucifix.

In September, 1936, Pere Van Rooy, famous French author, reported Dimitrov as saying :  “We are reproached with destroying the churches and convents of Spain.  What does the destruction of a few convents and churches matter ?  We are out to create a new world.^[5]

A Committee, which officially investigated Communist atrocities in Spain in 1939, agreed that a conservative estimate placed 50,000 as the number of citizens liquidated in Barcelona as “reactionaries”, between July, 1936, and December, 1937.  In Valencia the number was set at 30,000.  In Madrid they estimated that fully one tenth of the whole population was systematically murdered to make Spain into another totalitarian state.^[6]

To illustrate what happened when the Reds took over control in Spain, I will quote some other independent witnesses.  Marcel M. Dutrey, the famous French author, stated :  “At Castre Urdiales the Communist Military commandant was an ex-municipal policeman who had been dismissed for theft.  The new Chief of Police had previously made his living making and selling obscene postcards.  The public prosecutor was the illegitimate son of a woman who had previously been a well-known streetwalker.  He was nicknamed “Son-of-his-mother”.  The Red Tribunal was presided over by a miner who was assisted by two “Assessors” ... All these men were sadists.  They glorified in carrying out the sentences they themselves imposed on their victims.  They opened the stomach of Vincent Mura;  they martyred Julie Yanko publicly in the market square;  they dismembered Varez, the famous Spanish racing motorist, on the grounds that he refused to betray his friends into their hands.”

Mr. Arthur Bryant, who wrote the preface to the fully evidenced, and authenticated, report on “Communist Atrocities in Spain” remarked on several occasions “Soviet agents obtained such a control of the communications systems that only reports favourable to their cause got into the majority of the world’s newspapers, but, on the other hand, the most outrageous lies against the Franco forces were conjured up and given to the press of the world without let or hindrance.”  Bryant was so disgusted with what he saw that he wrote :  “No university lecturer, or anonymous B.B.C. commentator^[7] has told the just, and compassionate, British people the truth about the women of San Martin de Valdeiglesias.  For no greater crime than that they were found to possess some religious emblem, the women in San Martin de Valdeiglesias were condemned to be violated, and to satiate every vile passion, of twenty-five Red Militia men each.  The fact that the fathers of some of the women had been imprisoned, and were under sentence of death, and that their mothers were forced to be present to witness the degradation of their daughters, was not sufficient to dissuade the Red Militia men from carrying out the sentence.  The horrors of the hours suffered by these women had terrible effects on some of their minds.  The survivors related how, again and again, they implored their executioners to kill them rather than submit them to such dreadful dishonour.  The appalling cruelty of such atrocities can be realized by the fact that many of the condemned women were married, and when they were conducted between militiamen, before this pitiless tribunal, they carried children in their arms, and these children were witnesses of this culmination of the horror in the dishonour of their mothers.”^[8]

It is little wonder that the secret power directing the W.R.M. said :  “Communists should not be required to carry out their plan of Terrorism in the localities in which they had lived with their families, but had to be used elsewhere.”

Every Communist will declare that these atrocities were committed by “Uncontrollables” who were punished when they were caught.  So that no person may be deceived by such lies I will again quote Lenin, the first canonized saint of the Illuminati totalitarian creed.  Lenin said on various occasions :  “There are no morals in politics, there is only expediency.  A scoundrel may be of use to us just because he is a scoundrel.”

On another occasion he said :  “Young revolutionaries should start training for war immediately, by means of practical operations such as liquidating a traitor, killing a spy, blowing up a police station, or robbing a bank to provide funds for the uprising, etc... Do not shirk from these experimental attacks.  They may of course degenerate into excesses, but that is a worry of the future”.^[9]

The Communist Krassikov was a libertine who squandered party funds on riotous living.  Lenin, when ordering his liquidation said :  “It does not matter that Comrade Krassikov has squandered party funds in a brothel, but it is scandalous that this should have disorganized the transportation of illegal literature”.^[10]

Communist training is designed to squeeze the last drop of human kindness out of the hearts of men and women who aspire to become high priests of the religion.  Anna Pauker rose to dizzy heights in the Soviet hierarchy.  She became Foreign Minister of Rumania.  She proved she was loyal to Stalin when she rendered herself a widow by denouncing the father of her three children as a Trotskyite.

Communist terrorists encourage mere boys to become executioners of the enemies of the proletariat in order to harden them, and remove from their hearts every last vestige of human sentiment and sympathy.  One such youth told how he had had a lot of fun with a priest.  He said :  “Night after night we took him out with the groups we had to kill, but always we put him last in the line.  We made him wait while we killed all the others and then we took him back to the Bellas Artes again.  (The Bellas Artes was the Building of Fine Arts which the Communists used as a prison).  Each night he thought he was to die, but a quick death was too good for him.  That ‘Fraile’ died seven deaths before we finally finished him.”

Mr. Knoblaugh, on page 87 of his book Correspondent in Spain, tells of a horrible incident which confirms the contentions that the planners of World Revolution select potential leaders while they are very young and then train them until they are devoid of every trace of human sentiment and pity.  Knoblaugh tells how two Communist youths boasted to a doctor, in his presence, that they had mutilated and murdered two young priests.  They penetrated the disguise of these two religious men who, to escape detection and death, were working as coal-heavers.  The two youths told how they made the two priests dig their graves with their coal shovels, then, in accordance with the Communist-designed Reign of Terror, they emasculated their two victims and forced the organs into their mouths.  They stood by jeering while the priests died slow lingering deaths.

De Fonteriz, in Red Terror in Madrid pages 19-20 tells how the Chekas, organized by Dimitrov and Rosenberg tried to make a certain lady tell where her husband was hiding.  The woman probably didn’t know his whereabouts, but to make sure she didn’t, the members of the Chekas made her sit and watch while they amused themselves piercing the breasts of eight women members of her household with long hat-pins.

To prove a previous statement, that those who design the pattern of the Reign of Terror used criminals and lunatics to stir up the blood-lust, I report what happened at Alcala on July 20th, 1936 :  The Reds released all the prisoners, both male and female, on condition that they would bear arms for the Communist Cause.  They numbered one thousand men and two hundred women.  They were formed into the Battalion of Alcala.  They excelled themselves in the victorious attack on Madrid.  As a reward they were sent to Siguenza.  After taking over the town, they murdered two hundred citizens to break down the resistance of the others.  This battalion of criminals occupied Siguenza for sixteen weeks.  When they were driven out by Franco’s forces, it was found that every female, from ten to fifty, had been violated.  Many of them were pregnant and many diseased.  Some were both.  One girl, a waitress in a hotel, told how lucky she had been.  She told how the criminals had murdered the bishop of Siguenza in a most horrible, barbarous, and unprintable manner.  At a banquet held in the hotel that night, one of the battalion took a fancy to her and demanded that one of his comrades dress himself in the murdered bishop’s vestments and marry them.  The others thought this a great joke and carried out the mock ceremony.  After the wedding the “Militiennes” performed the “Danse on Ventre” using the dining tables as a stage.  After the orgy ended, the man claimed the girl as his own personal property.  Relating this happening she remarked :  “I was lucky.  My man was an assassin, but it was better to belong to him than to be the plaything of all.  I at least escaped disease.”

Marcel M. Dutrey published the fact that in Ciempozuelos over one hundred religious brothers were bound to lunatics who were then furnished with knives.  One can imagine the horror which followed.  Moscow’s army of trained propagandists told the world how Franco’s troops had murdered the mayors of many small towns, but they didn’t mention the fact that they had been tried by a properly constituted military court and proved to have been Communist agents of Largo Caballero who had plotted to turn Spain into a dictatorship.

If further proof is needed to substantiate the statement that the Secret Powers behind the World Revolutionary Movement use Communists throughout the world to further their totalitarian plans, the numerous desertions from the Communist party, all over the world, should provide that proof.  Douglas Hyde, who for the preceding five years was news editor of the Daily Worker, Britain’s leading Communist newspaper, in March 1948 announced his resignation from the Communist party.  In a press release he stated :  “I believe that the new ‘line’ of the Communist party, introduced after the formation of the Cominform last year (1947), if successful, will bring nothing but misery to the common people.”  Mr. Hyde went on to explain that since the end of World War II he had been worried regarding Moscow’s foreign policy.  He said he had finally become convinced that the Party Line as now determined by the Moscow Clique, was no longer in keeping with the ideals for which he had worked so long, and that the ultimate result would be to destroy the very freedoms and decencies for which Communists had been fighting for so long a time.  He concluded with these words :  “My growing disillusionment led me to seek some other answer to the problem of our day, and another way out of the world chaos.”

Right on top of Mr. Hyde’s resignation in London, England, came that of Mrs. Justina Krusenstern-Peters, a staff member of Soviet publications for the preceding twelve years.  She announced her resignation in Shanghai, China.  She said :  “The strain of writing according to orders from Moscow became more than I could bear ... I am still a Soviet citizen.  I am sure my feelings are shared by many of my colleagues in Russia, the only difference is that they are not able to protest against their enslavement.”

Most Communists work to bring about an International of Soviet Socialist Republics.  In other words, they feel that only by using revolutionary methods can they speedily destroy the stranglehold of selfish capitalism and place political power in the hands of the workers.  Few party members realize they are working themselves into a state of slavery from which there is no hope of escape.^[11]

1 Investigation of outbreaks in many prisons in both the U.S.A. and Canada indicate these revolt, were Communistically inspired.  It took nearly twenty-three years to prove that some of the officials in Kingston Penitentiary, at the time Tim Buck was confined in the institution, were Communists.  Evidence would indicate they helped him organize the Kingston Prison Riots.  I was a Free Lance writer at the time.  I wrote that the whole thing smelt to high heaven as a plot to make a martyr of Tim Buck, in order to arouse public sympathy, in order to obtain his release.  I declared it my opinion that guards, and other prison officials, were implicated.  My story never appeared in print.  In 1953 one of the officials I suspected in 1932 of having ‘Red’ affiliations contested the Federal election in British Columbia as the Labour Progressive Candidate.  Between 1939 and 1944 this same man had charge of the training of personnel in the engineering branch of the Royal Canadian Navy.  This information was given to the proper authorities. —Author.

2 It is an historical fact that ten times as many revolutionary leaders have died during Party Purges than died during the actual revolutionary ware.

3 Recorded in official reports "Communist Atrocities in Spain”. Parts one, two and three.  The investigations were conducted by a committee composed of men of different nationalities.  The editing was done by Arthur Bryant, internationally known journalist and author.

4 This statement of my consin’s was confirmed an page 238 of the Spanish Arena, written by William Fees and Cecil Gerahty, and also by Arthur Bryant who investigated the Communist Atrocities in Spain.

6 In case some people think that Communists hate only Roman Catholic, it is well to remember that the Secret Powers behind the world Revolutionary Movement are determined to ultimately turn this world into the despotism of Satan.  That is the essence of Illuminism.  In order to lull people, in countries not yet Sovietized, (sic) into a some of false security, they will try to convince them of their tolerance to religions other than Roman Catholic, but investigation shows that they are determined, when they have sufficient power, to wipe out all religions.

7 NOTE — Red agents had infiltrated onto the Staff of Britain’s B.B.C. in 1938 and for nearly two years the policy was Pro-loyalist, i.e. Communistic.  The present trend of the C.B.C. is much the same.  The majority of programs are slanted sharply to the “left”.

8 The details are on page six of the second report ‘Communist Atrocities in Spain’.

9 Communist agents teach children, in all Free Nations the inversion of the Ten Commandments.  Communism is therefore responsible for the increase in juvenile delinquency more than any other single cause.  While professed atheists they serve the purpose of Illuminati and Satanism.

10 The magazine Time made reference to these views expressed by Lenin, November 17th, 1948.

11 Mr. Hyde, and others, who broke away from the communist party don’t seem even yet to realize that they were only tools used to further the plans of the Illuminati.
