A Certain Arrogance by George Michael Evica

[Robert Howard]

Here is a segment of an old post by Peter Levenda on his blog:

We know that Lee Harvey Oswald was befriended by George deMohrenschildt. a White Russian expatriate who was very involved in the oil industry on one side, and who was a CIA informant on the other. What is not emphasized is the fact that deMohrenschildt lived and worked in the milieu of the White Russian community in Dallas, which itself revolves around the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia, known by its initials as ROCOR (or, to those of us familiar with it for many years, as simply "The Synod" or even as "93rd Street" since that is the location of their headquarters in New York City).

ROCOR was a violently anti-Communist group composed of refugees from the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. They fled first to Paris, and when Europe seemed on the verge of self-destruction in the war years and the period immediately following the end of the First World War, many Russian nobles (and their clergy) fled for the safety of North America. They purchased a mansion on Park Avenue and 93rd Street, and it was divided into a residence for the nobles on one side and a monastery and cathedral for the Russian Orthodox Church on the other.

Robert, a little to add, fwiw....

The fin-de-siècle religious renaissance

During the final decades of the imperial order in Russia many educated Russians sought to return to the Church and revitalize their faith. No less evident were non-conformist paths of spiritual searching known as "God-Seeking". Writers, artists, and intellectuals in large numbers were drawn to private prayer, mysticism, spiritualism, theosophy, and Eastern religions. A fascination with elemental feeling, with the unconscious and the mythic, proliferated along with visions of coming catastrophe and redemption.

The visible forms of God-Seeking were extensive. A series of 'Religious-Philosophical Meetings' were held in St. Petersburg in 1901–1903, bringing together prominent intellectuals and clergy to explore together ways to reconcile the Church with the growing of undogmatic desire among the educated for spiritual meaning in life. Especially after 1905, various religious societies arose, though much of this religious upheaval was informal: circles and salons, séances, private prayer. Some clergy also sought to revitalize Orthodox faith, most famously the charismatic Father John of Kronstadt, who, until his death in 1908 (though his followers remained active long after), emphasized Christian living and sought to restore fervency and the presence of the miraculous in liturgical celebration. In 1909, a sensation-creating volume of essays appeared under the title "Vekhi" ("Landmarks" or "Signposts"), authored by a group of leading left-wing intellectuals, including Sergei Bulgakov, Peter Struve, and former Marxists, who bluntly repudiated the materialism and atheism that had dominated the thought of the intelligentsia for generations as leading inevitably to failure and moral disaster.

Occult practices

1922, Sept. 13 The Council of Bishops Abroad resolved: in accordance with the directive of Patriarch Tikhon to abolish the Higher Church Administration to create the Synod of Bishops of the Russian Church Abroad. The Council issued an epistle concerning Spiritism, Magnetism, Theosophy, and other occult practices.

Russian Orthodox Timeline

When Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested, he had an address book showing phone numbers for the White Russian emigres in the Philadelphia area. It is assumed that these numbers were given to him by his friend, Ruth Paine, who had many ties to Philadelphia and who, indeed, visited that city in the months prior to the assassination. Ruth Paine brought Marina Oswald, Lee's Russian-born wife, into her home so that Marina could learn English and Ruth, Russian. That was the story, anyway.

http://sinisterforces.info/blog/index.php?...in-America.html

FWIW, Ruth Paine denied she gave him the addresses (which consisted of Russian Language institute and Russian Orthodox Church). What is interesting is that Oswald had told RP that he was going to either Houston or Philadelphia to look for work. She further testified that it was her impression when he arrived back in Dallas that he had in fact been looking for work. This is all backed up by the statements made by the manager of a small employment agency in Houston who claimed Oswald had been in to her agency late October (she no doubt was a month out in her memory). She included at least one detail which was not publicly known prior to then - that Oswald had the help of a friend in his job hunting (prior to leaving, he had told Marina that he had a friend who would help him get work).

Houston, We Have a Problem

ROCOR was a violently anti-Communist group composed of refugees from the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. They fled first to Paris, and when Europe seemed on the verge of self-destruction in the war years and the period immediately following the end of the First World War, many Russian nobles (and their clergy) fled for the safety of North America. They purchased a mansion on Park Avenue and 93rd Street, and it was divided into a residence for the nobles on one side and a monastery and cathedral for the Russian Orthodox Church on the other.

They were assisted to leave Europe for the US by the Park Ave Caudet Bros law firm. A smart young lawyer with this firm up until 1941 was Robert Morris (later of Dallas and walker fame via various government anti-communist work). Did he help any of the De/Von Mohrenschildt's into the US? I think it is very possible. The law firm was at 200 Park Ave. George shared a place with brother Dmitri at 750 Park Ave.

George DeMohrenschildt and Robert Morris

Am I getting old, or is it true that AMORC has always had a big linkage to the city of Brotherly Love, I know they have a library there now?

At any rate I did manage to find the Bishop's listed in Levenda's book The Nine.....

A Grimoire of American Political Witchcraft

Book One: The Nine

By Peter Levenda

Bishop H.P. Aluya, (Holy Prophet)

Bishop John Christian [Chiasson]

Bishop George A Hyde

Bishop Michael Francis Augustine Itkin

Bishop Earl Anglin Lawrence James

Rev. Xavier von Koss

Bishop Andre Pennachio,

Vladimir Walter Propheta

Bishop Hubert Augustus Rogers,

(Archbishop Christopher Maria) Carl J. Stanley,

Bishop Pierre Michel Lorenzo de Valitch

I believe it was Vladimir Propheta, whom Levenda stated was in Mexico, if so it may have been in 1964, as opposed to 1963........

It's not that I think that esoterica, freemasons, AMORC or what have you are at the apex of resolving the assassination, but there is so much information that has been discovered that has helped answer some of the truly perplexing areas of JFK research, that was, to some degree, in the background so to speak, that everything has to be evaluated, if that means delving into areas that are "politically incorrect," so to speak, so be it.

Col. Philip Corso went on and on about UFO's and the Kennedy assassination, and nobody busted his

b_ _ _ _, about it, but if one of us does it, we are ripe for the funnyfarm.

as someone once said, "Only in America........"

If anyone is truly interested in understanding the complexities associated with the various religous affiliations, the following material is required reading, in my estimation.

October 4, 1964 saw Archpriest Walter consecrated to the historic Episcopacy by The Most Reverend JOACHIM (Souris) of The Autocephalous Greek Orthodox Church in America (old calendrist) and The Most Reverend THEOKLITOS (Kantaris) of The Greek Archdiocese of New York. This Episcopal Consecration was also sanctioned by the Roman Catholic Cardinal Archbishop of New York at the time, FRANCIS Spellman. The same two Hierarchs, THEOKLITOS and JOACHIM, on March 30, 1965 and by the laying on of hands, elevated Bishop WOLODYMIR I for service as Archbishop and Metropolitan Primate of The American Orthodox Church/American Orthodox Catholic Church. On January 14, 1968 Archbishop WOLODYMIR I was named Patriarch by the Holy Synod of the AOC/AOCC.

Propheta's Cathedral and attached Monastery was long in the Propheta family from the time of Archbishop Walter's father, Dimitray Propheta, (who served as Archpriest under the Omophora of Ukranian Metropolitan PALLASIOS) was located at 675 East 183rd Street in the New York City Borough of The Bronx and was named The Cathedral Church and Monastery of The Holy Resurrection.

Other than his parochial ministry both at St. Mary's and at the Church of The Holy Resurrection; the crux of his work in the 1950's and 1960's was shown most clearly in his fight against the human and religious persecutions inflicted by the evils of Communism. This particular apostolate was taken not only to the national but also the international planes through his organization, Crusade Against Communism, this being a work for which he was very well known and recognized, even, at the time of the 25th anniversary of his consecration by FBI director J. Edgar Hoover.

In addition he establishing a charitable group to provide necessary life resources, at little or no cost, for members of the Clergy who could not otherwise afford them must also be included; as well as the magnitude of the tmeporal assistance he provided to the less fortunate of the City of New York. It was not uncommon for him to stop along the streets of New York City to reach out to those he saw in need. He also enjoyed the respect of many secular and religious authorities,including former Governor of New York State and former Presidential Candidate Thomas E. Dewey. Propheta, if Governor Dewey had been successful in gaining the Presidency, would have served as White House Chaplain. Additionally, his was a long association with the former Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, J. Edgar Hoover; as well as FRANCIS Cardinal Spellman and TERENCE Cardinal Cooke.

the above was taken from http://russianorthodox.org/history05.html

Below is taken from Peter Levenda’s blog

Kennedy was assassinated in November, 1963. Within months, Propheta had formed his own church in New York City and, at the same time, another was being formed in Denver, Colorado. Both were called the American Orthodox Catholic Church, the idea being the creation of an Orthodox Church for Americans. Previously, most Orthodox churches in the United States were ethnic churches in which the services were celebrated in the language of the immigrants who formed the congregations, whether Greek, Syrian, Bulgarian, Ukrainian, etc. An American Orthodox Catholic Church would focus on Americans of whatever ancestry, joined by a common belief in the Eastern Orthodox faith and furthermore joined by a common liturgical language, English. It was a noble concept, and for awhile it seemed as if the Colorado contingent were actually carrying out this ambitious project. In New York, however, these sentiments were honored more in the breach than the observance.

While the assassination of President Kennedy served to advance the agenda of the hawks and anti-Communists in Washington and the Pentagon, there was still a Democratic President -- Johnson........Out of this miasma of politics, paramilitary groups and rage emerged a man called by New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison "one of history’s most important individuals": David Ferrie. One of the least understood and most underreported aspects of Ferrie's career is the inescapable fact that he was a member of the American Orthodox Catholic Church and, indeed, for awhile one of its clergy.

In fact, New Orleans had more than its fair share of AOCC bishops and clergy.

And they all seemed to work for Guy Banister.

George DeMohrenschildt and Robert Morris

Actually it was the Coudert Brothers law firm where Robert Morris cut his eye teeth on ferreting out Communists in the New York City

School System around 1940-1941. Coudert Brothers were also involved with The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion and Boris Brasol who later was the de facto leader of the Canadian contingents affiliated with Anastase Vonsiatsky and later the North American Regional WACL group in Winnipeg for the Winnipeg Airport Incident. I will get some more cites on Boris Brasol later, from American Swastika by Charles Higham I think it was. By the way Higham has Vonsiatsky running all the Nazi spies in North America which would have included old George deMohrenschildt whose wife Jeanne or Jean was BORN in Harbin, Manchuria where Vonsiatsky had his headquarters for decades. What was George's favorite pseudonym? Philip Harbin or I love Harbin. Vonsiatsky was THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE to become the Fuhrer of a re-conquered Czarist Russia with the help of Hitler. There is a book called The Secret War Against Russia where Rep. Claude Pepper of Florida attempts to document the Fascist efforts to defeat Communist Russia right after World War II which I have somewhere. It is there that Coudert Brothers, Boris Brasol and Robert Morris plus Vonsiatsky are placed together, I believe.

You are really on to something here.... Tell me more....and I will do the same for you.

Ah, yes, Paris where the Coudert Brothers the first true Intl Law Firm expanded... And many of the Czarist nobles were from Paris, right?

The others went to Harbin, Manchuria where Vonsiatsky helped them eventually bring down the Iron Curtain....

1853 - Frederic Rene Coudert founded Coudert Brothers in New York; later joined by two brothers, Charles (junior) and Louis Leonce; 1879 - opened law office in Paris, believed to be first international law practice.

BINGO.... Looks like one of the Coudert's actually ran William F. Buckley's run at the Mayor of New York.... NO WONDER Condon

put Buckley into Manchurian Candidate.... Man and God at Yale vs. God and Man at Yale. He got it backwards but the reference

to Buckley was UNMISTAKEABLE.

Here is where I found the cross-reference from Coudert to William F. Buckley, Jr. - BINGO BINGO BINGO

More on Brasol, Adrian Arcand, Robert Morris, William F. Buckley, Jr., Anastase Vonsiatsky and George de Mohrenschildt....

It should be spelled Coudert Brothers. Morris worked for them cutting his eye teeth by ferreting out Communists in the New York School System in the early 1940's. They had an office in Paris, France. Nice work.

The Coudert's were French Catholics and one of the Couderts actually ran William F. Buckley's campaign for Mayor.

Boris Brasol and Adrian Arcand are indirectly referenced by Richard Condon in The Manchurian Candidate just like William F. Buckley, Jr., Anastase Vonsiatsky, Dr. Revilo P. Oliver and Robert J. Morris are (7 times). The latter 2 were in the John Birch Society.

Condon mentions: The Giant Juke Box Company of Arcana, Illinois...which is of course really The John Birch Society from Urbana, Illinois, where Dr. Revilo P. Oliver was a professor at the University of Illinois.

Another possible reason for using "Arcana, Illinois" instead of "Urbana, Illinois" could very well have been to bring attention to Canada's well known Nazi leader: Adrian Arcand who was described again by John Roy Carlson in Under Cover as leader of the Canadian Fascist Party who had spoken at a New York German-American Bund rally in New York City in 1937. He was also referred to as "the Canadian Fuhrer" by John Roy Carlson.31 The similarity between "Arcana" and "Arcand" is readily apparent.

Whether or not Ron Gostick cut his eye teeth under the watchful guidance of Arcand is unknown. Arcand apparently was the one who originated the "Roosevelt is Jewish" fabrication that was circulated by Gerald L K. Smith in the United States under the "Franklin Delano Rosenfeld" moniker.

Carlson states that this originated in 32 "Key to the Mystery" which was distributed from Arcand's Canadian office. Boris Brasol, the notorious Ukrainian Fascist and close friend of Vonsiatsky's, was well acquainted with Adrian Arcand according to this Carlson quotation:

"Yes, I've met Arcand," Brasol asserted, referring to the Canadian Nazi leader. "I'm sorry to see him in jail. What we should do from now on is to train leaders secretly, keep them in the background so that when they put us in concentration camps these leaders can keep up the movement."33

This is typical of Uliuss Amoss' Leaderless Resistance campaign which was adopted by Louis Beam and other leaders of the Radical Right in America. It appears that Amoss may have borrowed this concept from Adrian Arcand and Boris Brasol perhaps.

Brasol also worked for Coudert Brothers when he was distributing The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, an anti-Semitic forgery translated by the Russian Czarists.

"Earnest Sevier Cox and Wickliffe Preston Draper met for the first time on June 7, 1936, at Draper's New York apartment, beginning an association that lasted until Cox's death in 1966 and one based on the two Colonels' sincere admiration for each other's contributions to their common cause. Cox was genuinely grateful for Draper's generosity and Draper equally appreciative of Cox's tireless efforts to create an America for whites only;..."

"Draper also made clear that strict anonymity was a condition of his assistance, and in correspondence with allies in the repatriation movement Cox typically referred to his unnamed benefactor as "our Northern friend." "

"Of course, Draper was even less eager to have himself publicly associated with Carto and the Liberty Lobby than with Cox, and extensive precautions were taken to ensure his anonymity. The funds for the new edition of "Lincoln's Negro Policy" were described merely as donated "by a long time friend and associate of Colonel Cox who wished to establish this type of memorial to him."

"The Dal-Tex Building, sometimes called the Dal-Tex Market Building or Dal-Tex Mart Building, was a center of the textile business in Dallas."

There are very may websites that mention the DalTex building but nne that I can find that go in to the history of the building, the companies that were there and whether Draper had any business interests in it.

Does anyone have a source for any such connections? I know that such connections can readily be buried in all sorts of criss cross connections.

The other link is to a chapter in which Greaves appears.

http://www.press.uillinois.edu/epub/books/tucker/ch4.html

Part of it refers to an individual mentioned in the 'deaths of Civil Rights Workers'*

"....Upon his return to the United States, Pearson, now in possession of a doctorate in anthropology, began a transition to a more respectable, academic career, abandoning his image as an overt, fire-breathing Nazi. While searching for a position, he headed for Jackson, Mississippi, where the Englishman had clearly established connections before his departure for South Africa. Although the New Patriot's letterhead had listed a post office box in Hollywood, California as its address of record, the journal had actually been published in Jackson, as was a reprint of Pearson's Northern League pamphlet, Race and Civilization. In addition, while in Jackson, Pearson was put up by Elmore Greaves, a well-known opponent of integration who had just received campaign contributions from Draper for his unsuccessful bid for political office. The editor of a publication so extreme it labeled Senator James Eastland a leftist, Greaves had circulated a handbill after James Meredith was admitted to the University of Mississippi, calling for the student body "to keep the colored boy in a state of constant isolation ... avoided for the NAACP leper that he is, ... unwanted and ... treated as if he were a piece of furniture of no value." 89

Finding his houseguest "brilliant and charming," Greaves recommended Pearson to a friend on the faculty at the University of Southern Mississippi (USM), an institution regularly referred to on campus as Fort McCain after its president, William D. McCain. Having served in the regular Army and the National Guard, the president was addressed as General McCain—"Generalissimo" behind his back—and he ran the institution like a military base, unceremoniously firing liberal professors and resenting civilian authority. Called to testify in a criminal proceeding in which one of his deans was charged with embezzlement, McCain was fined $500 and given a thirty-day suspended sentence after threatening to "beat [the prosecutor's] damn brains out." 90 Also Adjutant in Chief of the Sons of the Confederate Veterans and Adjutant General of the Military Order of the Stars and Bars, McCain was still fighting the Civil War, maintaining that the Fourteenth Amendment was not legally part of the Constitution. A leader in the Citizens' Councils and a member of its "speakers' bureau"—the select group chosen to present the South's case in the North—McCain had been accorded the honor of introducing Carleton Putnam at the Jackson banquet to celebrate "Race and Reason Day," and in regular articles in The Citizen he reported the latest statistics that Weyher had privately compiled on the number of favorable reviews of Putnam's book. 91

Naturally, the General was opposed to the prospect of having any black recruits at Fort McCain. Indeed, had James Meredith attempted to enter USM rather than Ole Miss, the outcome might have been very different. When Clyde Kennard,* a decorated Korean veteran and Mississippi resident, had requested admission to USM two years earlier, McCain promptly notified the Sovereignty Commission, which launched an investigation into the applicant's friends and references, insisting that they dissuade him from such a foolish goal. Undeterred from applying, not only was Kennard personally rejected by McCain but, immediately upon leaving the president's office, he was arrested by local officials on the first of a number of charges so transparently trumped-up, with the assistance of campus security, that even the sheriff and prosecutor were shocked (although they did not intervene when Kennard was sentenced to the hard time that led to his death three years later)."

E. L. Greaves was certainly a person with low regard for the lives of his fellow Humans. I suppose for him as a nazi sympathiser his standing was as an 'ubermenchen'.

Under Various Pen Names

William D. McCain. : served in the regular Army and the National Guard, the president was addressed as General McCain—"Generalissimo" (possibly referring to a Fascist leaning)

Roger Pearson : (Under Various Pen Names)"Of the many Pioneer grantees who argued that race and nation must be synonymous, that "biological homogeneity" was essential for nationhood, the most important was the British-born Pearson, whose entire life and career were dedicated to rationalizing racial separation in the name of Aryan purity...In 1959, Pearson spent five weeks in the United States, rallying neo-Nazi groups around the country to the Northern League banner, and a month later his transatlantic comrades returned the visit, attending the league's "moot"—an Old English term for a meeting of Anglo-Saxon freemen—held in Germany's Teutoburg Forest. The purpose of the moot was to commemorate the victory of Herman, the "Teutonic general" who had defeated the Roman legions in the forest during the first decade A.D. , thus, according to Cox's featured speech, saving the Nordic race from mongrelization. Cox had even once suggested that "those of us who do not wish to deify a Jew" refer to calendar dates as " B.H. (before Herman) and A.H. " The five-day event culminated with a ceremony in which Pearson's wife placed a wreath at the Hermansdenkmal, the memorial to their hero. 82

Pearson eventually came to the United States, where, under pseudonyms, he edited two publications in succession. During 1964 and 1965, as "Edward Langford," he joined with Carto, who had established the Northern League's "American Alpha Group" in California, in producing Western Destiny as the continuation of Northern World"

"In 1967, Pearson traveled to South Africa—where he had influential friends waging a more successful battle for white civilization—leaving his journal to be absorbed by Thunderbolt, the organ of the National States Rights Party (NSRP); the two publications were already linked by Pearson's ally Edward R. Fields, who served both as a member of the New Patriot's Editorial Advisory Board and as Thunderbolt's editor. A chiropractor by trade, Fields and his long-time associate, Atlanta attorney J. B. Stoner, who eventually served time in prison for the bombing of a Birmingham church,"

(Those who recognise Civil Rights as a primary Domestic issue leading a large grouping in the far right militant movements desiring Kennedy's death.) I recommend reading through a number of related threads such as 'the Minute Women'.

Because the search for the assassins has for so many decades, right from the early misdirections, has allowed this grouping to operate incognito, it is now hard to make progress. However with the growing awareness of the dubiousness of many of the usual theories and the beginning of release on documentation in relation to old civil rights cases occurring today, these past few years of the new century. the result has a chance of past research providing otherwise ignored information. If on;y the awareness or flags to look for are kept in mind.

*owner of TSBD. There seems to have been a few boneheads in dallas, wonder who the other members were.

I think I might have figured out who the boneheads were.

When searching for connection of Shaw with Mexico I came across a reference to the Yale Skull & Bones fraternity (Bush) that called its members 'Boneheads'. If that's correct then the other Dallas Boneheads should be identifiable.

Other Boneheads may have been Rockefellers, the Brothers Dulles and the Dulles' nephew, Cardinal Francis, Spelly? Harry Luce, (his wife Clare described as girlfriend of Charles Willoughby). Apparently during a party at Clare's house in Phoenix, everyone cheered when the news of the Dallas shooting was announced.

anyway, the Boneheads liked to spend time in Mexico.

Roger Pearson was a recipient of major funding from The Pioneer Fund and he later headed Draper's favorite commandos at

The World Anti-Communist League just before it was turned over to Ray S. Cline during its most Fascist Period. Washington Post

had an article titled something like: "Anti-Red League has ties to Fascists....." from perhpas 1986-88. Cline ran Robert Emmett Johnson

as a programmed assassin for an extended period according to James Richards, Johnso killed Archbishop Romero in El Salvador while

he was saying a Mass. Big hero. See Inside the League by Jon and Scott Anderson (1986) Devin, Adair Publishing for more on WACL.

You are on to something here.

People wanting more excellent background on Rockefeller missionary activities and the Unitarian church would do well to read "Thy Will Be Done: The Conquest of the Amazon: Nelson Rockefeller and Evangelism in the Age of Oil" by Gerard Colby and Charlotte Dennett.

If this harrowing book, which was very nearly suppressed and pulped, has already been mentioned here - then I second the nomination.

Kennedy biographers have mentioned the lilting sneer that the mention of Nelson Rockefeller's elicited from JFK in the political arena of c. 1960 [which I must paraphrase]: "Where was Nels during the war? I saw the whole Pacific Theater, but not a sight of Nels..." Colby and Dennett record Nels's profiteering days in the Amazon for us.

Here is a segment of an old post by Peter Levenda on his blog:

We know that Lee Harvey Oswald was befriended by George deMohrenschildt. a White Russian expatriate who was very involved in the oil industry on one side, and who was a CIA informant on the other. What is not emphasized is the fact that deMohrenschildt lived and worked in the milieu of the White Russian community in Dallas, which itself revolves around the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia, known by its initials as ROCOR (or, to those of us familiar with it for many years, as simply "The Synod" or even as "93rd Street" since that is the location of their headquarters in New York City).

ROCOR was a violently anti-Communist group composed of refugees from the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. They fled first to Paris, and when Europe seemed on the verge of self-destruction in the war years and the period immediately following the end of the First World War, many Russian nobles (and their clergy) fled for the safety of North America. They purchased a mansion on Park Avenue and 93rd Street, and it was divided into a residence for the nobles on one side and a monastery and cathedral for the Russian Orthodox Church on the other.

I found an article in the NY Times showing that Vonsiatsky was married in a ROCOR church in NYC. Lemmie get the address.

Can anyone provide the names of these White Russians in Philadelphia for me to research? When I found Spas T. Raikin

he lived in Eastern Pennsylvania in or near East Stroudsburg where he retired from teaching at East Stroudsburg State College.

To listen to him, he was involved in each and every step of the negotiations between Reagan and Gorbachav over The Berlin Wall, and claims to have given input to Reagan's advistors, too, on just about every aspect related to Captive Nations Committees issues.

Sounds like he is challenging some of us, including me, for the title of "swell headed megalomaniac" with "elaborate delusions of grandeur"

or as an associate of mine once said "illusions of grandeur" which to me is even much better.

So was this guy just some little "Traveler's Aid Flunky" or a trusted confidante of Bush's and Reagan's advisors on Captive Nations

issues? You know what his version of events sounded quite plausible to me and since he ran American Friends of Anti-Bolshevik Nations

along with Charles Willoughby and Yaroslaw Stetsko who was responsible for the Lvov, Ukraine pogrom against the Jews in the early 1940's, I have no choice but to give him the benefit of the doubt. He was after all, a history professor, and really knew his stuff.

And he knew all the right names from the World Anti-Communist League, too. NARWACL, CACL, Alpha 66, etc. This guy was

connected. Big Time.

He met the Oswalds for a reason. To make sure they had no problems getting to Dallas in one piece and that they would meet up

with Ruth Paine and company "toot sweet" as Hemming liked to say. ('tout suite') With great dispatch...

Anti-Bolshevik was considered by Jon and Scott Anderson to be the most violent and dangerous entity in all of WACL which had

multiple mass murders as heads of delegations including Roberto d'Aubbison who had 100's of thousands of people killed. Get the

quote from books.google.com if you wish... Inside the League it was called (c. 1986)

I mean ABN and OUN/M and OUN/B were basically responbile for Treblinka and most of Auschwitz, too. These guys were Schweinhundt

like that guy from Cleveland they finally sent back as a war criminal. Demyanyk or whatever.

Later.

Some new coincidences I've stumbled upon. I'll start with a terminally ill man, William Ray Potter, Brown Univ., '42. Diagnosed as terminally ill in 1954, he died in 1960 in Providence, RI, and Robert H Schacht was his clergyman.

http://www.archive.org/stream/brownalumnimonth613brow/brownalumnimonth613brow_djvu.txt

His Three Extra Years

WILLIAM Ray Potter '42 in Provi-dence, Sept. 15. The obituary might

have been left with its fellows in the gen-eral necrology of '"In Memoriam," but

there we could not have told the Bill Pot-ter story which warrants telling.

Bill Potter had lived two lives. The second began in 1954 when he first no-

ticed symptoms of trouble. His doctors found out what it was: amyotrophic lat-

eral sclerosis, the same rare disease which killed Lou Gehrig. TTiree years is a long

life after it hits. (Bill was to live six.)

WRLIAM R. POTTER '42 (his Senior plioto)

DECEMBER 1960

Bill Potter's fight was unusual in itself, and he was stubborn in his determination

not to become an invalid. He used me-chanical devices, some of his own design,

to counteract his growing infirmities — to help him read, for example, or to let him

write a bit. He refused to let his mind grow slack or to have his world contract,

though he could scarcely move in his wheelchair. His car was driven to a spot

behind the goal posts where he could watch Brown football; arrangements were

made so that he could see the squad scrim-mage in Dexter-Aldrich Field early this

fall. He read a lot and thought a lot.

An Extraordinary Report

Perhaps the most remarkable thing Bill Potter did was to volunteer his help in a

series of articles which Ben H. Bagdikian wrote for the Providence Evening Bulletin.

They were collaborators in an objective, detailed, personal account of tragedy and

bravery. Bill thought he would like others to know what it is like to have a promis-

ing business career cut short and to face certain death while still young. He said

he wanted to give encouragement to others dying from incurable illnesses:

"Maybe it will end the attitude most people have toward a person who's going

to die — There's no hope, what's the use of doing anything?' " He had some feeling

for what friendships meant, and a family's love. It was a long story, not easy to read

if you had feelings. But you sensed the effort Bill was making to communicate,

and you responded to his courage and understood what he was doing so superbly.

It was one of the most ennobling bits of

journalism we have ever read. We are surprised it had only local currency,

though it was lengthy.

Potter had done a lot of thinking. "If I had my life to live over again," he told

Bagdikian, "I think ... I wouldn't be so concerned with what people thought of

me ... I wouldn't be such a conformist. I wouldn't be so anxious to conform to the

image of the successful man — to be a financial success, to be active in civic

affairs. I would be more lazy. I'd read more . . ."

He said if he could get back his lost bodily functions, the ones he would value

most would be: "First (easy), breathing; second, chewing; third, one of my hands

back; fourth, control over my emotions; fifth, my voice; sixth — if I got back the

first five, the heck with the rest."

During the summer he had to have an electric aspirator on hand to help him

swallow. When Hurricane Donna ap-proached in September, he asked to be

taken to the Rhode Island Hospital be-cause of the possibility that power would

fail at his home, as it eventually did. A slight cold became worse in the hospital,

and he fell into a coma to die. He was spared the only fear he'd had about death

itself — the characteristic choking which strikes most victims of the disease. He had

a peaceful end, and he'd had twice as many years as was usual in such cases.

A Memorial Hour at Brown

Potter was Vice-President of his Class at Brown and President of his fraternity.

Alpha Delta Phi. He had Navy service in the Pacific as a Lieutenant. When he came

home, he joined the administrative staff of the University and directed student

activities for some time, successfully. Later he went into business, with the Dixon

Corporation, a plastics and textile ma-chinery firm in Bristol, R. I., for which

he was Vice-President and Sales Manager until illness forced him to retire.

Early in September he'd sent a check to this magazine as a voluntary subscrip-

tion, signing the note of appreciation he'd dictated. He'd enjoyed his contacts with

Brown and his fellow alumni.

The memorial service on the Brown Campus was an unforgettable noon hour

for those who filled Manning Chapel. He had anticipated the hour and made his

desires known: "nothing gloomy," a fa-vorite hymn or two, "Chapel Steps," some

passages he'd marked in military booklets, a prayer sent him from home in wartime.

His minister, the Rev. Robert H. Schacht, Jr., and his headmaster at Choate School,

the Rev. Seymour St. John, officiated. One of them recalled that Bill had said: "I've

always liked the nighttime, and autumn is my favorite season."

In lieu of flowers, checks came to the University, for the Brown University

Fund. Some $625 was acknowledged in the next few weeks, put aside in a me-

morial fund.

William Ray Potter was the son of the late Alfred K. Potter '02 and the grandson

of William F. Ray '74. His mother lives at 280 Irving Ave., Providence.

Yale Bonesman Duncan Hunter Doolittle was the best man in two weddings.

Gun-Control Advocate Edward Welles, 85

By Matt Schudel

Washington Post Staff Writer

Friday, October 20, 2006

Edward O. Welles, 85, a former CIA officer who later become the first executive director of the antihandgun organization now known as the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, died Oct. 11 of brain cancer at his home in Washington.

After serving in World War II with the Office of Strategic Services, a forerunner of the CIA, Mr. Welles joined the spy agency in 1950. He served in Greece before becoming the agency's chief of station in Ethiopia, Nigeria and Morocco....

...Edward O'Malley Welles was born in Scranton, Pa., and interrupted his studies at Yale University to be an ambulance driver in North Africa during World War II. In 1943, he volunteered for a British intelligence service and gathered intelligence behind enemy lines in Greece.

The next year, he joined the OSS and was attached to the U.S. Army, receiving two battlefield promotions. He did intelligence work in Nazi-controlled parts of Yugoslavia and won the Bronze Star Medal for his exploits.

After the war, Mr. Welles graduated from Yale, then briefly operated a paint company in Texas before he was recruited to the CIA. ...

Assassination in Khartoum

...A Wrong Turn in Omdurman On an evening in mid-May 1969, Lucien Kinsolving and his wife Mary drove across the Nile bridge linking Khartoum and neighboring Omdurman for dinner at the home of the director of the British Council...

We cannot be sure whether or not John Beaumont Chaffee was simply a concerned Yale student with an urge to drive an ambulance behind British combat lines in North Africa and in Burma, or whether he had a background more similar to the war and post war service of Yale classmate Edward O. Welles or Lucien Kinsolving. I will have to spend some time searching the names of the other Ambulance drivers on the list. Kinsolving seems to have had responsibility for matters in Jordan at the time William B. Macomber, Jr. was U.S. Ambassador in Jordan.

I noticed that another member of the John Beauchamp Chaffee wedding party, besides best man Duncan H. Doolittle,

was Miss Fredericka Aldred. She married just a month after Chaffee.:

Two years after Duncan Hunter Doolittle was John Beaumont Chaffee's best man, Doolittle was the best man in the wedding of his first cousin, Yale Bonesman John LH Chafee, the man who was the Yale roommates of Nancy Bush's husband, Alexander Irwin, Jr., and of Charles Whitehouse, later of the CIA. Chafee later told the story that his good friend, William B. Macomber, Jr. (OSS in France and Burma, CIA and State Dept., best man in Nancy Bush's wedding. and in Thomas Devine's wedding) recommended him to Melvin Laird for the position of Secretary of the Navy. In 1947, Chafee was an usher in the wedding of Edward O. Welles, a Yale classmate who had been an Ambulance driver in North Africa and an agent of British Intelligence, OSS, and who would soon join the CIA.
