Re: Drug Trust

Hi Folks,

I scanned this excerpt in from the book, 'Murder by Injection' by
Eustace Mullins. (c) 1988 - Library of Congress Card Catalog
Number - 88-060694

You will note that the people who have the greater interlocks in
the drug companies, also have the *same* connections to the Federal
Reserve, the Rockefellers, the Rothschilds, Bilderbergers, Council
on Foreign Relations, most of the _major_ Oil companies, the largest
BANKS, chain-stores and food companies and the media.

It's one big happy family!

Chapter 9

The Drug Trust
==============

In 1987, the eighteen largest drug firms were ranked as follows:

1, Merck (U.S.) $4.2 billion in sales.

2. Glaxo Holdings (United Kingdom) $3.4 billion.

3. Hoffman LaRoche (Switzerland) $3.1 billion.

4. Smith Kline Beckman (U.S.) $2.8 billion.

5. Ciba-Geigy (Switzerland) $2.7 billion. 6. Pfizer (U.5.) $2.5 billion
(Standard & Poor's gives sales as $4 billion).

6. Pfizer (U.S.) $2.5 billion (Standard & Poor's gives its sales as
$4 billion.)

7. Hoechst A. G. (Germany) $2.5 billion (Standard & Poor's lists its sales
as $38 Billion Deutschmarks).

8. American Home Products (U.S.)  $2.4 billion ($4.93 billion according to
Standard & Poor's).

9. Lilly (U.S.) $2.3 billion ($3.72 billion Standard & Poor's).

10. Upjohn (U.S.) $2 billion.

11. Squibb (U.S.) $2 billion.

12. Johnson & Juhnson (U.S.) $1.9 billion.

13. Sandoz (Switzerland) $1.8 billion.

14. Bristol Myers (U.S.) $1.6 billion.

15. Beecham Group (United Kingdom) $1.4 billion (Standard & Poor's gives
$1.4 billion in sales of the U.S. subsidiary-$2.6 billion pounds sterling as
overall income).

16. Bayer A. G. (Germany) $1.4 bilIion (Standard & Poor's gives the figure
as $45.9 billion Deutschmarks).

17. Syntex (U.S.) $1.1 billion.

18. Warner Lambert (U.S.) $1.1 billion (Standard & Poor's gives the figure
as $3.1 billion).

Thus we find that the United States still maintains an overwhelming lead in
the production and sale of drugs. In the United States, the sale of
prescription drugs rose in 1987 by 12.5% to $27 billion. Eleven of the
eighteen leading firms are located in the United States; three in
Switzerland; two in Germany; and two in the United Kingdom. Nutritionist
T.J. Frye notes that the Drug Trust in the United States is controlled by
the Rockefeller group in a cartel relationship with I.G. Farben of Germany.
In fact, I.G. Farben was the largest chemical concern in Germany during
the 1930s, when it engaged in an active cartel agreement with Standard Oil
of New Jersey. The Allied Military Government split it up into three
companies after World War II, as part of the "anti-cartel" goals of that
period, which was not unlike the famed splitting up of Standard Oil itself
by court order, while the Rockefellers maintained controlling interest in
each of the new companies. In Germany, General William Draper, of Dillon
Read investment bankers, unveiled the new decree from his office in the
I.G. Farben building. Henceforth, I.G. Farben would exist no more;
instead, three companies would emerge-Bayer, of Leverkusen; BASF at
Ludwigshafen; and Hoescht, near Franfort. Each of the three spawns is now
larger than the old I.G. Farben; only ICI of England is larger. These firms
export more than half of their product. BASF is represented in the United
States by Shearman and Sterling, the Rockefeller law firm of which William
Rockefeller is a partner.

The world's No. 1 drug firm, Merck, began as an apothecary shop in
Darmstadt, Germany, in 1668. Its president, John J. Horan, is a partner of
J.P. Morgan Company, and the Morgan Guaranty Trust. He attended a
Bilderberger meeting in Rye, New York, May 10-12,1985. In 1953, Merck absorbed
another large drug firm, Sharp & Dohme. At that time, Oscar Ewing the
central figure in the government Floridation promotion for the Aluminum
Trust, was secretary of the Merck firm, his office then being at One Wall
Street, New York.

Directors of Merck include John T. Connor, who began his business career
with Cravath, Swaine and Moore, the law firm for Kuhn,Loeb Company; Connor
then joined the Office of Naval Research, became Special Assistant to the
Secretary of the Navy 1945-47, became president of Merck, then president of
Allied Stores from 1967-80, then chairman of Schroders, the London banking
firm. Connor is also a director of a competing drug firm, Warner Lambert,
director of the media conglomerate Capital Cities ABC, and director of
Rockefeller's Chase Manhattan Bank. Each of the major drug firms in the
United States has at least one director with close Rockefeller connections,
or with a Rothschild bank. Another director of Merck is John K. McKinley,
chief operating officer of Texaco; he is also a director of Manufacturers
Hanover Bank, which Congressional records identify as a major Rothschild
bank. McKinley is also a director of the aircraft firm, Martin Marietta,
Burlington Industries, and is a director of the Rockefeller-controlled Sloan
Kettering Cancer Institute. Another Merck director is Ruben F. Mettler,
chairman of the defense contractor TRW, Inc.; he was formerly chief of the
Guided Missiles Department at Ramo-Wooldridge, and has received the human
relations award from the National Conference of Christians and Jews-he is
also a director of Bank of America.

Other directors of Merck include Frank T. Cary, who was chairman of IBM for
many years; he is also a director of Capital Cities ABC, and partner of J.P.
Morgan Company; Lloyd C. Elam, president of Meharry Medical College,
Nashville, TN, the nation's only black medical college. Elam is also a
director of the American Psychiatric Association, Nashville City Bank, and
the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, which gives him a close connection to
Rockefeller's Sloan Kettering Cancer Center; Marian Sulzberger Heiskell,
heiress of the New York Times fortune. She was married to Orville Dryfoos,
the paper's editor, who died of a heart attack during a newspaper strike;
she then married Andrew Heiskell in a media merger-he was chairman of Time
magazine and had been with the Luce organization for fifty years. She is
also a director of Ford Motor. Heiskell is director of People for the
American Way, a political activist group, chairman of the New York Public
Library, and the Book-of-the-Month Club. Also on the board of Merck is a
family member, Albert W. Merck; Reginald H. Jones, born in England, formerly
chairman of General Electric, now chairman of the Board of Overseers,
Wharton School of Commerce, director of Allied Stores and General Signal
Corporation; Paul G. Rogers, who served in Congress from the 84th to the
95th Congresses; he was chairman of the important subcommittee on health;
in 1979, he joined the influential Washington law firm and lobbyist, Hogan
and Hartson. He is also a director of the American Cancer Society, the Rand
Corporation, and Mutual Life Insurance.

Thus we find that the world's No. 1 drug firm has directors who are partners
of J.P. Morgan Company, one who is director of Rockefeller's Chase
Manhattan Bank and who is director of the Rothschild Bank, Manufacturers
Hanover; most of the directors are connected with vital defense industries,
and interlock with other defense firms. On the board of TRW, of which Ruben
Mettler is chairman, is William H. Krome George, former chairman of ALCOA,
and Martin Feldstein, former economic advisor to President Reagan. The major
banks, defense firms, and prominent political figures interlock with the CIA
and the drug firms.

The No. 2 drug firm is Glaxo Holdings, with $3.4 billion in sales. Its
chairman is Austin Bide; deputy chairman is P. Girolami, who is a director
of National Westminster Bank, one of England's Big Five. Directors are Sir
Alistair Frame, Chairman of Rio Tinto Zinc, one of the three firms which are
the basis of the Rothschild fortune; Frame is also on the board of another
Rothschild holding, the well known munitions firm, Vickers; also Plessey,
another defense firm which recently bid on a large contract with the U.S.
Army; Frame is president of Britoil, and director of Glaxo are Lord Fraser
of Kilmarnock, who was deputy chairman of the Conservative Party (now the
ruling party in England) from 1946 to 1975, when he joined Glaxo; Lord
Fraser was also a member of the influential Shadow cabinet; B.D. Taylor,
counselor of Victoria College of Pharmacy and chairman of Wexham Hospital;
J.M. Raisman, chairman of Shell Oil UK Ltd., another Rothschild controlled
firm. Lloyd's Bank, one of the Big Five, British Telecommunications, and the
Royal Committee on Environmental Pollution; Sir Ronald Arculus, retired from
Her Majesty's Diplomatic Service after a distinguished career; he had served
in San Francisco, New York, Washington and Paris; he was then appointed
Ambassador to Italy, and was the UK Delegate to the United Nations
Convention on the Law of the Sea, which sought to apportion marine wealth
among the have-not countries: Arculus is now a director of Trusthouse Forte
Hotels, and London and Continental Bankers; and Professor R. G. Dahrendorf,
one of the world's most active sociologists and a longtime Marxist
propagandist. Dahrendorf, a director of the Ford Foundation since 1976, is a
graduate of the London School of Economics, professor of sociology at
Hamburg and Tubingen, parliamentary Secretary of State at the Foreign
Office, West Germany since 1976, and has received honors from Senegal,
Luxemburg and Leopold II.

The Rothschilds apparently appointed Dahrendorf a director of Glaxo because
of his emphatic Marxist pronunciamentos. The European director of the Ford
Foundation, he claims, in his book, "Marx in Perspective," that Marx is the
greatest factor in the emergence of modern society. Dahrendorfs principal
contribution to sociology has been his well-advertised concept of the "new
man," whom he has dubbed "homo sociologicus," a being who has been
transformed by socialism into a person whose every distinctive feature,
including racial characteristics, have disappeared. He is the modern robot,
a uniform creature who can easily be controlled by the force of world
socialism. Dahrendorf is the apostle of the modern faith that there are no
racial differences in any of the various races of mankind; he denounces any
mention of "superiority" or of differing skills as "ideological distortion."
Dahrendorf is a prominent member of the Bilderbergers; he attended their
meeting at Rye, New York from May 10-12, 1985. He is professor of Sociology
at Konstanz University, as well as his other previously mentioned posts.

Thus we find that the world's No. 2 drug firm is directed by two of the
Rothschild's family's most trusted henchmen and by the world's most
outspoken explicator of Marxism.

The world's No. 3 drug firm, Hoffman LaRoche of Switzerland, is still
controlled by members of the Hoffman family, aIthough there have been rumors
of takeover attempts in recent years. The firm was founded by Fritz Hoffman,
who died in 1920. The firm's first big seller was Siropin in 1896; its sales
of Valium and Librium now amount to one billion dollars a year; its
subsidiary spread the dangerous chemical, dioxin, over the Italian town,
Seveso, which cost $150 million to clean up in a 10 year campaign. His son's
widow, Maya Sacher, is now married to Paul Sacher, a musician who is
conductor of the Basle Chamber Orchestra. Hoffman had added his wife's name,
LaRoche, to the family company, as is the custom in Europe; the Hoffmans
still control 75% of the voting shares. The Sachers have one of the world's
most expensive art collections, Old Masters and modern paintings.

In 1987, Hoffman LaRoche tried to take over Sterling Drug, a venture in
which they were aided by Lewis Preston, chairman of J.P. Morgan Company; he
also happened to be Sterling's banker. In the ensuing brouha-ha, Preston
decided to retire. Eastman Kodak then bought Sterling, with backing from the
Rockefellers. The chairman of Hoffman LaRoche is Fritz Gerber, a 58 year old
Swiss army colonel. The son of a carpenter, he became a lawyer, then
chairman of Hoffman LaRoche. Gerber is also a director of Zurich Insurance;
thus he is associated with Switzerland's two biggest firms; he draws a
salary of 2.3 million Swiss francs per year, plus a $1.7 million working
agreement with Glaxo holdings.

Hoffman LaRoche received a great deal of publicity in April 1988 because of
unfavorable revelations about its acne drug, "Accutane" after the Food and
Drug Administration publicized figures that the drug had caused 1000
spontaneous abortions, 7000 other abortions, and other side effects such as
joint aches, drying of skin and mucous membranes, and hair loss. Hoffman
LaRoche was faulted by FDA for purposely omitting women, and particularly
pregnant women, from the studies on which it based requests for approval of
Accutane. The company was aware that Accutane caused serious effects when
taken during pregnancy.

Hard on the heels of the Accutane revelations, Hoffman LaRoche made new
headlines in the Wall Street Journal with Congressman Ted Weiss's demand,
reported on May 6, 1988, that a criminal investigation be launched of the
forty deaths, recorded since 1986, caused by taking Versed, Hoffman
LaRoche's tranquilizer which is a chemical cousin of its best selling drug,
Valium.

The No. 4 drug firm, Smith Kline Beckman, banks with the Mellon Bank. Its
chairman, Robert F. Dee, is a director of General Foods, Air Products and
Chemical and the defense firm, United Technologies, which interlocks with
Citibank. Directors are Samuel H. Ballam, Jr., chairman of the Hospital of
the University of Pennsylvania, director of American WaterWorks,
Westmoreland Coal Company, General Coal Company, INA Investment Securities,
chairman of CIGNA's High Yield Fund, and Geothermal Resources International;

Ditchley Foundation set up by W. Averell Harriman during World War II;
McHenry is also a director of Coca Cola and International Paper; Carolyn K.
Davis, who was dean of the school of nurses at University of Michigan
1973-75, Health and Human Services since 1981; she is also a director of
Johns Hopkins.

Other directors of Smith Kline are Andrew L. Lewis, Jr. chairman of Union
Pacific, the basis of the Harriman fortune; he is director of Ford Motor,
trustee in bankruptcy Reading Company, former chairman of Reagan's
transition team and deputy director of the Republican National Committee; R.
Gordon McGovern, chairman of Campbell Soup; Ralph A. Pfeiffer, Jr., chairman
of IBM World Trade Corporation, American International Far East Corporation,
Riggs National Bank, and chairman U.S.-China Trade Commission; he is also
vice chairman of the key foreign policy operation, Center for Strategic and
International Studies, which was founded by Jeane Kirkpatrick's husband,
Evron Kirkpatrick of the CIA.

The world's No.5 drug firm, Ciba-Geigy of Switzerland, does a billion dollar
a year business in the United States, and operates ten drug factories here.

Pfizer, No. 6 in size of the world's drug firms, does $4 billion a year,
according to Standard & Poor's; the company banks with Rockefeller's Chase
Manhattan Bank. Pfizer's chairman, Edmund T. Pratt, Jr., was controller of
IBM from 1949 to 1962; he is now a director of Chase Manhattan Bank, General
Motors, International Paper, the Business Council and the Business
Roundtable,two Establishment organizations; he is also chairman of the
Emergency Committee for American Trade. Pfizer's president is Gerald
Laubach, who joined Pfizer in 1950; he is a member of the council of
Rockefeller University, and director of CIGNA, Loctite, and General
Insurance Corporation; Barber Conable is director of Pfizer; he was a
Congressman representing New York from 1965 to 1985, which would indicate a
close Rockefeller connection; Conable is now president of the World Bank.
Other directors of Pfizer are Joseph B. Flavin, chief operating officer of
the 2 1/2 billion a year Singer Company. Flavin was with IBM World Trade
Corporation from 1953-1967, then president of Xerox; he is now with the
Committee for Economic Development, Stamford Hospital, Cancer Research
Foundation, and the National Council of Christians and Jews; Howard C.
Kauffman, has been president of EXXON since 1975; he was previously regional

Kuhn, Loeb Company, to Moscow in 1972, to conclude a trade agreement with
the Soviets; this agreement was concluded in October, 1972; John R. Opel,
president of IBM, director of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Time and
the Institute for Advanced Study; Walter B. Wriston, chairman of Citicorp,

director ofthe $100 million Revson Foundation (cosmetics fortune), with
Simon Ritkind and Benjamin Buttenweiser, whose wife was attorney for Alger
Hiss while Buttenweiser was Assistant High Commissioner for occupied West
Germany.

Of the major drug firms, none shows more direct connection with the
Rockefeller interests than Pfizer, which banks with the Rockefeller bank,
Chase Manhattan, has as director Howard Kaufmann, president of Exxon, and
Paul Marks of the Rockefeller controlled Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and
Rockefeller Hospital. In most cases, only one Rockefeller connection is
needed to assure control of a corporation.

The No. 7 in world ranked drug firms is Hoechst A. G. of Germany, a spinoff
from I.G. Farben, i.e., Rockefeller Warburg Rothschild control. It operates
a number of plants in the U.S., including American Hoechst at Somerville,
New Jersey, and Hoechst Fibers Company. Hoechst manufactures the widely used
polyester fiber Trevira, antibiotic food additives for swine and broilers
(Flavomycin), and other pharmaceuticals used in animal raising.

No. 8 in world ranking, American Home Products banks at the Rothschild Bank,
Manufacturers Hanover, and does $3.8 billion a year ($4.93 according to
Standard & Poor's). It became even larger by its recent purchase of A.H.
Robins Drug Company of Richmond, VA. A.H. Robins had gone into bankuptcy
after facing $2.5 billion in payments to some 200,000 women who had been
injured by its Dalkon Shield, an intrauterine device. An inadequately tested
vagina clamp caused severe damage to many women. A French firm, Sanofi, then
attempted to buy the firm, but was beaten out when American Home decided to
pay a premium price for the firm's well known brand names, Chapstick and
Robitussin. American Home's CEO is John W. Culligan, who has been with the
firm since 1937; he is a Knight of Malta, director of Mellon Bank, Carnegie
Mellon University, American Standard, and Valley Hospital; president of
American Home is John R. Stafford, director of the Rothschild Bank,
Manufacturers Hanover; he was formerly general counsel for the No. 3 ranked
drug firm, Hoffmann LaRoche, and partner of the influential law firm,
Steptoe and Johnson. Directors are K. R. Bergethon of Norway, now president

University, Mercy Hospital, Navy League, and the Biscayne Yacht Club;
William F. LaPorte, who is director of Manufacturers Hanover Trust, American

Falls Company; John F. McGillicuddy, chairman of Manufacturers Hanover Bank,
who recently replaced Lewis Preston of J.P. Morgan Company as director of
the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (Preston had been criticized for his
role in promoting a deal for Hoffman LaRoche while engaged as Sterling
Drug's banker); John F. Torell III, president of the Manufacturers Hanover
Trust and Manufacturers Hanover Corporation; H.W. Blades, who was formerly
president of Wyeth Labs, and is now director of Provident Mutual Life
Insurance, Wistar International, Philadephia National Bank, and Bryn Mawr
Hospital; Robin Chandler Duke, of the tobacco family; Edwin A. Gee, director
of Air Products and Chemical, International Paper, Bell & Howell; he is now
chairman of International Paper and Canadian International Paper; Robert W.
Sarnoff, son of David Sarnoff, who founded the RCA empire; and William
Wrigley, chairman of the Wrigley Corporation, director of Texaco and the
Boulevard National Bank of Chicago.

No. 9 in world ranking is Eli Lilly Company, whose chairman Richard D. Wood
is also director of Standard Oil of Indiana, Chemical Bank New York,
Elizabeth Arden, IVAC Corporation, Cardiac Pacemakers Inc. , Elanco
Products, Dow Jones, Lilly Endowment, Physio-Control Corporation, and the
American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research, a supposedly
rightwing thinktank in Washington where Jeane Kirkpatrick reigns supreme.
Directors of Lilly are Steven C. Beering, born in Berlin, Germany, now
president of Purdue University; he served on numerous medical boards,
Diabetes Association, Endocrine Association and is a director of Arvin
Industries; Randall H. Tobias, is a director of the Bretton Woods Committee,
has been with Bell Telephone Labs since 1964, now director of AT&T and Home
Insurance Corporation; Robert C. Seamans, Jr. who was Secretary of the Air
Force from l969-1973,now director of the Carnegie Institute, Smithsonian
Museum and National Geographic Society (with Laurance Rockefeller); He is
also a director of Combustion Engineering, a firm which is engaged in a
number of deaIs with the Soviet Union, Putnams Funds, a New England
powerhouse investment firm; other directors of Lilly are J. Clayton LaForce,
a Fulbright scholar, now director of the Rockefeller-funded National Bureau
for Economic Research, and is dean of the graduate school
of management at the University of California. LaForce is an
influential member of the secretive Mont Pelerin Society, which represents
the Viennese school of economics, a Rothschild sponsored enterprise which
features Milton Friedman as its mouthpiece-it is actually a pseudo-rightwing
think- tank run by William Buckley and the CIA. LaForce is also a trustee of
the pseudo rightwing thinktank, Hoover Institution of Stanford University,
which is run by two directors of the Rockefeller-funded League for
Industrial Democracy, the leading Trotskyite thinktank; Sidney Hook and
Seymour Martin Lipset. Other directors of Lilly are J. Paul Lyet II,
chairman of the giant defense firm Sperry Corporation-two-thirds of its
contracts are with government agencies; Lyet is also a director of Eastman
Kodak, which has just purchased Sterling Drug; he is also a director of
Armstrong World Industries NL Industries and the Continental Group; Alva
Otis Way III, president of American Express, director of Schroder Bank and
Trust, formerly chairman-also director of Shearson Lehman, which now
incorporates Kuhn, Loeb Company and Lehman Brothers, director of Firemans
Fund Insurance Company and American International Banking Corporation,
Warnex Ampex Communications Corporation; C. William Verity, Jr., whose
father founded Armco Steel; a Yale graduate, Verity is now chairman of
Armco; he was recently appointed Secretary of Commerce to replace fellow
Yale man Malcolm Baldridge a director of the defense firm Scovill
Manufacturing-Baldridge had fallen off of a horse. Verity is also a director
of Chase Manhattan Bank, Mead Corporation and Taft Broadcasting, Verity was
chosen as Secretary of Commerce because of his longtime record of agitation
on behalf of the super-secret group, the U.S.-U.S.S.R. Trade & Economic
Council, also known as USTEC , whose records are classified as Top
Secret-several lawsuits are now under way to force the government to release
USTEC documents under the Freedom of Information Act, but so far government
attorneys have fought off all attempts to find out what this group is doing.
Supposedly a cordial group of well-meaning American businessmen meeting with
their smiling Soviet counterparts, USTEC was the brainchild of a top KGB
official, who promoted it at the 1973 summit meeting between President Nixon
and Brezhnev. The go-between was Donald Kendall of Pepsicola, who had just
concluded a major trade deal with Russia; part of the price was Kendall's
selling USTEC to the White House Team. Without Kendall, USTEC might never
have gotten off the ground. The real goal of USTEC was voiced by H. Rowan
Gaither head of the Ford Foundation, when he was interviewed by foundation
investigator, Norman Dodd. Gaither complained about the bad press the Ford
Foundation was receiving, claiming it was unjustified. "Most of us here," he
exclaimed in self-exculpation, "were at one time or another, active in
either the OSS or the State Department, or the European Economic
Administration. During those times, and without exception, we operated under
directives issued from the White House, the substance of which was to the
effect that we should make every effort to alter life in the United States
so as to make possible a comfortable merger with the Soviet Union."

[ Don's note: Better read that last sentence a few times! ]

USTEC is an important step in the merger program. Alva Way, president of
American Express serves on the board of Eli Lilly with C. William Verity.
Way's fellow executive, James D. Robinson III, who is chairman of American
Express, is a prime mover in USTEC, as is Robert Roosa, partner in Brown
Brothers Harriman investment banking firm, who is executive officer of the
Trilateral Commission. Other important USTEC members are Edgar Bronfman,
head of the World Zionist Congress, chairman of Seagrams, the Bronfman
family firm, and controlling a sizeable part of DuPont's stock, 21%; Maurice
Greenberg,  chairman  of  American  International Group; Dr. Armand Hammer,
longtime friend of the Soviet Union, and Dwayne Andreas, grain tycoon who is
head of Archer-Daniels-Midland Corporation. Andreas, who financed CREEP, the
organization which brought about the resignation of Richard Nixon from the
presidency of the United States, has on his board Robert Strauss, former
chairman of the Democratic National Committee, and Mrs. Nelson Rockefeller.

In 1972, a meeting was called in Washington at the ultra-exclusive F.
Street Club, which had long been the secret meeting pIace for the top
wheelers and dealers in Washington. Donald Kendall had invited David
Rockefeller, who had opened a branch of Chase Manhattan in Red Square,
Moscow, Helmut Sonnenfeldt of the State Department, who reputedly had been
Henry Kissinger's "control" when Kissinger came to the United States as a
double agent under Sonnenfeidt's patronage, and Georgi Arbatov, the well
known Soviet propagandist in the United States. Arbatov told the group who
Soviet Russia wanted on the board of the prospective organization, which
became USTEC. He wanted Dr. Armand Hammer, Reginald Jones of General
Electric, Frank Cary of IBM; and Irving Shapiro, head of DuPont. USTEC's
ostensible purpose was to promote trade between the U.S. and Russia; its
real purpose was to rescue the floundering Soviet economy and save its
leaders from a disastrous revolution. The U.S. offered high technology,
grain and military goods; the Russians offered to continue the Communist
system.

The world's tenth largest drug firm is Upjohn, which is heavily into the

of the Bank of Montreal. Mulholland was a general partner of Morgan Stanley
from 1952 to 1969, when he became president of Brinco, a Rothschild holding
company in Canada from 1970 to 1974. Mulholland is also a director of
Allgemeine Credit Anstalt of Frankfort (birthplace of the Rothschild

Bristol-Myers is the 44th largest advertiser on the United States, with an
annual expenditure of $344 million, mostly in television and advertising;
this gives them a great deal of clout in dictating the content of programs.
Bristol-Myers is now pushing its new tranquilizer, Buspar and its new anti-
cholesterol drug, Questran, which it expects to gross at least $100 million
a year each. The track record for anti-cholesterol drugs has revealed some
disturbing side effects, such as liver damage and other "unforeseen"
consequences.

Number sixteen in world ranking is Bayer A.G. of Germany, one of the three
spin-offs from I.G. Farben cartel after World War II. Set up under orders
from the Allied Military Government, which was then dominated by General
William Draper of Dillon Read investment bankers, Bayer is now larger than
the original I.G. Farben. In 1977, Bayer bought Miles laboratories and
Germaine Monteil Perfumes, in 1981, it bought Agfa Gevaert, another spinoff
of American I.G. Farben, and in 1983 it bought Cutter Laboratories, a
California firm which was famed as having been set up to protect the
Rockefeller controlled drug firms in the great polio immunization wars. All
of the faulty polio vaccine was said to have been produced by Cutter,
freeing the Rockefeller firms from the threat of lawsuits. During the 1930s,
Bayer operated Sterling Drug and Winthrop chemical companies in the United
States as subsidiaries of the giant I.G. Farben cartel. Winthrop Chemical's
president was George G. Klumpp, who had married into the J.P. Morgan family.

agribusiness. Its founder-chairman, George Rosencrantz of Budapest, gives
his present address as 1730 Parque Via Reforma, Mexico DF 10; he left the
country after a bizarre kidnap scheme involving his wife. Chairman and
president of Syntex is Albert Bowers, born in Manchester, England, a
Fulbright fellow and member of the council at Rockefeller University;

Wall Street investment firm which was rumored for years to be the investment
arm of Meyer Lansky's five hundred million dollar fortune from Mafia

millions. He then returned to government service as an official of AID,
president of the International Investment Corporation for Yugoslavia
1969-1972, was appointed Under Secretary for Monetary Affairs to the
Treasury Department, 1977-1980, and succeeded Paul Volcker as president of
the key money market bank, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, when David
Rockefeller moved Volcker up to become chairman of the Federal Reserve Board
of Governors in 1980. Solomon is also a director of Banca Commerciale
Italiane.

Syntex is remembered for the mercurial rise in its stock when it began to
dump vast amounts of condemned drugs in backward overseas countries. Its
profits skyrocketed, as did its stock.

Number eighteen in world ranking is the former empire of Elmer Bobst,
Warner-Lambert. It is the number nineteen advertiser in the United States,
spending $469 million a year. Chairman of Warner-Lambert is Joseph D.
Williams, who is also director of Warner-Lambert subsidiary, Parke-Davis,
whose acquisition went through only because Bobst had secured the presidency
for his friend Richard Nixon. Williams is also a director of AT&T, J.C.
Penney, Western Electric, Excello and Columbia University. He is chairman of

Foundation ($30 million). She is also director of Irving Bank, the American
Council on Germany, ruling group of West Germany, Edmund A. Walsh School of
Foreign Service, and Georgetown Center for Strategic and International
Studies, all of which are the CIA preserves of veterans Evron and Jeane
Kirkpatrick. She is also director of the Woodrow Wilson International Center
and the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. Thus we find that Martha T. Muse is
a veritable directory of top secret CIA worldwide operations.

The Tinker Foundation, like the Jacob Kaplan Fund, is one of the super
secret organizations which funnels money to the CIA for covert activities
too bizarre to be submitted to any government operations center. The
secretary of the Tinker Foundation is Raymond L. Brittenham, who was born in
Moscow, educated at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute in Berlin. He was general
counsel for ITT, whose German operations were headed by Baron Kurt von
Schroder, personal banker to Adolf Hitler. Brittenham was senior vice

Kirk is also recipient of the Order of the British Empire, St. John of
Jerusalem, and is Commander of the Order of Orange-Nassau.

When Hoffman LaRoche made a strong bid for Sterling Drug in 1987, its cause
was advanced by Lewis Preston, head of the J.P. Morgan empire, who was also
banker for Sterling Drug. Publicity about his role caused his retirement for
J.P. Morgan Company. Sterling was then bought by Eastman Kodak through
funding from the Rockefellers. Kodak banks at Chase Lincoln First Bank,
which is wholly owned by Chase Manhattan Bank. Kodak does $10 biIlion a
year; its chairman is C. Kay Whitmore, who is a director of Chase Manhattan
Bank and Chase Manhattan National Corporation. Directors of Kodak are Roger
E. Anderson, former chairman of Continental Illinois Bank until it
threatened to go under from mismanagement; he is now with Amsted Industries,
a $700 miIlion steel corporation. Anderson is also chairman of the Chicago

Juanita Kreps is also director of Kodak, she was President Jimmy Carter's
Secretary of Commerce; she is now director of RJR Industries and the New
York Stock Exchange; she received the Stephen S. Wise award. Also on the
board of Sterling are John G. Smale, chairman of Proctor and Gamble,
director of General Motors; and Richard Mahoney, chairman of Monsanto
Chemical Company.

Because they are active in similar chemical formulations the leading
chemical firms are also closely interlocked with the major drug producing
firms. Richard Mahoney, director of Sterling Drug, is chairman of Monsanto
Chemical, a $7 billion a year firm. Mahoney claims he is seeking a twenty
per cent return on equity for Monsanto this year. He is also director of
Metropolitan Life lnsurance Company, Centerre Bancorp, G. D. Searle.
President of Monsanto is Earle H. Harbison, Jr., who was with the CIA from
