fair handling: due reward or treatment. (5) the administration and
procedure of the law. (HCO PL 3 May 72) 3. fair and equitable
treatment for both the group and individual. (HCO PL 24 Feb 72) 4.
justice safeguards rights, prevents injustice, prevents punishment
by whim, and brings order. Justice prevents wrongful disgrace,
demotion, transfer or dismissal and protects the staff member's
reputation and job from being falsely threatened (HCO PL 17 Mar 65
II) 5. to us, justice is the action necessary to restrain the
insane until they are cured. After that it would be only an action
of seeing fair play is done. (HCO PL 14 Dec 70) 6. an effort to
bring equity and peace. (HCO PL 14 Dec 70) 7. the purpose of
justice is to make a safe environment for the many. (FO 2257) 8.
justice would consist of a refusal to accept any report not
substantiated by actual, independent data, seeing that all such
reports are investigated and that all investigations include
confronting the accused with the accusation and where feasible the
accuser, before any disciplinary action is undertaken or any
condition assigned. While this may slow the processes of justice,
the personal security of the individual is totally dependent upon
establishing the full truth of any accusation before any action is
taken. (HCO PL 24 Feb 69) 9. an action to deter disorder and secure
the public safety. It is a short-term method of bringing order and
it is needed for all dynamics. (HCOMO.I) 10. the whole subject of
justice subdivides for a Scientologist into four phases. These are
(1) intelligence activities, (2) investigation of evidence, (3)
judgment or punishment, (4) rehabilitation. (HCOMO 11. justice is
one of the guards that keeps the channel of progress a channel and
not a stopped flow. (HCO PL 17 Mar 65 III) 12. there can be no
personal security without easily accessible, swift and fair justice
within a group. The jurisprudence employed must be competent,
acceptable to the members of the group and effective in
accomplishing good order for the group and personal rights and
security for its individual members. Justice used for revenge,
securing advantages for a clique increases disorder. Justice should
serve as a means of establishing guilt or innocence and awarding
damages to the Injured The fact of its use should not pre-establish
guilt or award. Justice which by its employment alone establishes
an atmosphere of guilt or greed is harmful and creates disorder.
(HCO PL 7 Sept 63) 13. could be called the adjudication of the
relative rightness or wrongness of a decision or an action. CAP&A,
p. 10) 14. the impartial administration of the laws of the land in
accordance with the extant level of the severity-mercy ratio of the
people. (PAB 96) 15. don't ordinarily put a head on a pike unless
it's the right head. But remember that there are times when it's
vitally necessary to put some head, any head, on a pike to quell
rising disorder. Just remember that justice is an action to deter
295
disorder and secure the public safety. But if you do put the wrong
head on a pike, be sure to put it back on the body again as soon as
the need for its being on a pike is over. Justice is not always the
matter of an individual. It is a short-term method of bringing
order and it is needed for all dynamics. (HCOMOJ)

thing that will clobber an org. One sees a graph down and says "Oh
well, of course, that's..." and at that moment you've had it. (HCO

recognized by an award of the title of Kha-Khan. It was not a rank.
The person remained what he was, but he was entitled to be forgiven
the death penalty ten times in case in the future he did anything
wrong, That was a Kha-Khan. That's what producing high statistic
staff members are Kha-Khans. They can get away with murder without
a blink from Ethics. (HCO PL 1 Sept 65 VII) 2. Kha-Khan was like a

L4BR, HCO Bulletin 15 December 1968R, LBR, For Assessment of At
Listing Errors. An out list (meaning one done by hating and
nulling, not a prepared list) can raise more concentrated hell with
a pc than any other single auditing error. The amount of misemotion
or Illness which a wrong list generates has to be seen to be
believed. When a pc is ill after a session or up to three days
after, always suspect that a listing action done on the pc had an
error in it. It must be corrected. This prepared list L4BR corrects
hats of the hating and nuking variety. It can be run on old hats,
current lists, general listing. (LRH ED 257 INT)

I) 3. it came, actually, from the OT grades. It answers the
question of why does an OT restrain himself and cease to behave as
an OT. It works best in that band, but it also works at the lower
end of the band. It turns the insane sane and makes a one life
being immortal. (FEBC 3, 7101C18 SO II) 4. research has disclosed
that the reason humans think they have not lived before this life
and won't live again is that they are in a condition below existing
as beings. Through overts they have become unable to see the world
around them or things in it. L-10 runs off all overts and winds up
with a thetan exterior who is aware of self. (ED 177 Flag)

LEAP FROG SYSTEM, (Flag only) if there are three pcs in an
auditor's line up, he goes 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3 day after day.
The pcs assigned to an auditor are consecutively audited and C/sed.
If he has two pcs, he can get in three or even four sessions in the
day. This means pcs are always on standby. There is no registrar
saying "You will get your sessions at 10:00 a.m. in the morning
every Tuesday." Registrars do not schedule. Ever. It means that a
pc may expect to get audited as often as possible. If an auditor
starts, let us say, at 0830 hours, he can leap frog pea all through
the day, auditing each one as far as he can, to a win or to the
conclusion of the C/S or lunch or whatever. But the signal to Tech
Services to act is that auditor bringing the pc to the examiner. At
once, that auditor's next pc must be rounded up by Tech Services,

acknowledgement and compliance from recipients of those orders. It
is further used to detect areas of non-compliance, no reports and
false reports (through direct observation or examination of

LRH COMM STAFF PROGRAM NO. 1, 1. this is a plan to get all staff
members up to HDC or HDG and get them through the Org Exec Course.
It is done by part-time training, the person
311
carrying on his regular staff job. If staffs are all trained on the
OEC it is very unlikely that the org form and functions will go
out. Technical reality on the subject of auditing pcs is highly
desirable on the part of admin staff. (LRH ED 78 INT) 2. this
program is designed to part-time train staff up to HDC and HDG and
then the Org Exec Course. (SO ED 12 INT)
LRH COMMUNICATOR, 1. the LRH Comm is located on the org board in
Dept 21, Office of LRH. As part of an autonomous network, the LRH
Comm does not come under local executive jurisdiction, but is
subject to the orders and directions of network seniors. As a
personal representative of LRH, the LRH Comm has full powers to
take those actions in accordance with his hat to carry out LRH's
intention for his org. The prime duty of an LRH Comm is getting
verification of compliance with existing LRH programs or orders
intended for that org or area, and new LRH issues as released. (BPL
5 Dec 73R II) 2. the title of that person in a Scn org who is
responsible for the communication and handling of LRH matters with
regard to that org. (BTB 12 Apr 72R) 3. an LRH Communicator has a
basic duty of getting compliances with LRH orders. This remains the
basic duty. (HCO PL 27 Feb 71 I) 4. the department head, Department
21. (FEBC 12, 7102C03 SO II) 5. is in charge of Flag Division IX.
(FO 2674) 6. as the LRH Comm is a split off of the old HCO Area Sec
hats, these two combine very easily as HCO Area Secs were LRH's
first communicators. (LRH ED 49 NT) 7. the LRH Comm is responsible
for making a functioning HCO and for LRH orders to that org and for
its ethics condition. These are establishment factors. (LRH ED
153RE INT) 8. the person in charge of Division 7 is the LRH Comm of
the ship. This person of course is the divisional officer. This
division is normally called the Executive Division. (FO 1109) 9.
the LRH Comm has the first and primary duty of "making Ron's
postulates stick." AD his admin and actions have to do with this.
The LRH Communicator handles the communications to and from LRH and
gets compliance with LRH EDs and orders and (in absence of an Asst
Guardian) enforces policy letters. (HCO PL 10 May 68) 10. the
primary function of the LRH Communicator us getting acknowledgments
for SEC EDs issued or getting the Executive Director's orders and
policy issued and reporting to LRH. (HCO PL 19 Jan 66 II) 11. the
purpose of the LRH Communicator is: to forward the communications
and orders of LRH and to make certain that his orders, dispatches,
directives, policy letters and secretariats are issued and complied
with and that acknowledgment is returned to LRH concerning them in
due course. (HCO PL 27 Dec 65) Abbr. LRH Comm.
312
LRH COMMUNICATOR PROJECT BOARD, the LRH Communicator keeps a
project board. Every project or order or directive or SEC ED Issued
is noted on this board; by routine and regular inspection
personally and by dispatch the LRH Communicator sees to it that
each and every order and project is eventually complied with or
acknowledged. (HCO PL 27 Dec 65)
LRH COMM WW, he must give first priority to three things: (a)
keeping the LRH Comm Network manned and operating, as the inter-org
network of world communication; (b) ensuring rapid distribution of
orders, executive directives, HCOBs, policy letters, materials for
HGC and student training; (c) compliance herewith. A forth and
important action of LRH Comm WW is to see that tapes by LRH are
played in orgs wherever possible and also with excellent quality. A
fifth duty is to see that an actual Office of LRH exists in orgs,
that busts and photos are displayed and that Source is maintained
In orgs. The LRH Comm WW should see to it that the LRH Comm Network
is used, that orders and actions are logged and that all LRH Comms
are well trained and aware of their duties. (HCO PL 12 Feb 70 II)
LRH COMPILATIONS LIBRARIAN, (LRH Compilations Unit) the purpose
of the LRH Compilations Librarian is: to help LRH increase the
availability, usage and consumption of LRH's IN and Scn materials
through a well organized honorary of these materials. (COLRHED 387)
LRH COMPILATIONS UNIT, on Flag there is an LRH Compilations Unit
established in the Personal Of rice of LRH which has the sole
purpose of aiding and carrying out Ron's wishes for new books and
articles he wants to do. This means an entire, full-time research,
artistic and transcription staff that Ron can personally call on to
compile materials for his use or publication. (FBDL 412)
LRH EDs, L. Ron Hubbard Executive Directives, earlier called SEC
EDs. These are issued by LRH to various areas. They are not valid
longer than one year if fully complied with when they are
automatically retired. They otherwise remain valid until fully
complied with or until amended or cancelled by another LRH ED. They
carry current line, projects, programs, immediate orders and
directions They are numbered for area and sequence for the area and
are sent to staffs or specific posts in orgs. They are blue ink on
white paper with a special heading. (HCO PL 24 Sept FOR)
LRH, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, this us better understood as "General
Manager" as it isn't as a member of the board that it is held but
as a manager. This is a paid post in any corporation or
association. There are numerous LRH Exec Dir titles and identities;
for this title repeats in each area and org and in the
International Division. It means "highest of the organization,"
"third member of the Advisory Council," "head of the department
called the Office of LRH." Therefore there is one of these titles
for each org we have and for the International Exec Division as
well Perth for instance has an LRH Executive Director, Perth, LA
has LRH Executive Director LA, etc. Then there is LRH Executive
Director WW. The identity of the LRH Communicator in the org or
activity gives clue to this. Each LRH Executive Director title has
an LRH Communicator. There are two LRH Communicators at Saint Hill,
LRH Communicator WW, who attends to each org for LRH Executive
Director WW via each org's LRH Communicator and LRH Communicator SH
who handles the traffic both of LRH Executive Director WW as sent
to It from the LRH Communicator WW and for LRH Executive Director
SH. This is only possible as the ores are all similarly engaged.
HCO Area Secs filled this role for years and still do where there
is no LRH Communicator. HCO Area Secs still have duties for the
Executive Director regardless of the LRH Communicator as old policy
letters show. "SEC ED issue" is one of these. Proper routing from
an org is through the LRH Comm of that org to LRH Executive
Director of that org and forwarded on to LRH Comm WW who sees that
LRH Exec Dir that org receives it in absence. LRH Exec Dir WW may
issue a blanket order concerning it but it is usually answered by
LRH Exec Dir that org. The Advisory Council of any org operates
without its third member, LRH Exec Dir of that org but in case of
disputes or errors finds LRH Exec Dir that org taking it up. (HCO
PL 4 Jan 66 VI)
LRH HEAVY HUSSARS HAT, this function is to move in heavily where
there is a threat of great importance to an org or Scn. After the
usual lines and posts have goofed. The term comes from the old
cavalry purpose of Fussers who were held in reserve until a battle
bee was dangerously bowed, at which they were sent in to straighten
it out. (HCO PL 1 Mar 66)
LRH MEDIA ORG, the LRH Photoshoot Org was an org that specialized
only in photography, assisting LRH. Since that time, it has

control of the Household Unit and LRH Personal Pro and all

LRH PR FOR PROFESSIONAL SCIENTOLOGISTS, (LRH Personal PRO Bureau)
the publics with whom LRH PR for Professional
314
Scientologists will be working are those persons in any type of
profession who are already in Scn. The purpose of the post very
simply stated is to: hat Scientologists in using LRH tech in their
professions (as well as in their personal life) and thereby
expanding the use of LRH tech so broadly that all Scientologists
make LRH tech indispensable in every profession known to man and
acknowledged as such. (COLRHED 359)
LRH PROPERTIES, by definition property means furniture, fittings,
personal effects and files and papers which are the personal
property of LRH, an individual, or LRH, an official of the

LRH SO BRIEFING TAPES, briefings to aides and officers of Flag
Org and the Flagship, by the Commodore, which have to do with SO
operating policies, principles, etc., of incalculable value to
Continental Captains, stationships, and all units and their crews.
Distribution is limited to Sea Org members. (FO 2512)
LRH'S OFFICE, by policy and tradition, the Founder has an office
of his own in each org. The LRH Comm is responsible for its
establishment and upkeep. It is the property of LRH personally and
the place where his own belongings and material in the org are
kept. (BPL 23 Dec 72R)
LRH, STAFF MEMBER, 1. in addition to all other identities and
titles there is that of LRH, Staff Member. As such I give staff
lectures in the org where I am, assist where I can, crack cases and
train students as "coordinator of research" (meaning application of
research), write magazines, take pictures, act as a routing expert,
listen to problems, and do a lot of other things. I am chiefly a
staff member of the org where I am located but am also a am member
of each org. (HCO PL 4 Jan 66 VI) 2. LRH, a staff member works on
staffs as a ease consultant, training officer, lecturer, design and
planning consultant, promotions adviser, and a department head of
the Of flee of LRH and as such should receive compensation. As a
staff member his expenses are paid by orgs. The pre-Dn salary level
of LRH, an employee, was several times that given by orgs

LRH, TRUSTEE, 1. this is L. Ron Hubbard in the capacity of a
trustee as distinct from a director or individual or staff member.
LRH, Trustee, holds money for corporations or persons or holds
property for them. (HCO PL 21 Dec 65) 2. this identity is a trustee
who holds in trust properties and money for Scn and since 1957 has
held UK and Commonwealth corporations in trust for the original
U.S. company until these assets can be transferred to a UK
nonprofit corporation. All money sent to LRH an Individual is
received by LRH a trustee or a corporation and is seldom paid to
LRH an individual but turned over to companies without being given
to LRH, an individual. This is a vital point, often missed even by
accountants who then get us involved. "Trustee" is an identity and
activity almost all movements, churches, and benevolent
associations have and in each case the "trustee" does just what LRH
a trustee is doing - safeguarding property and assets of an
association. It's a very usual role. (HCO PL 4 Jan 66 VI)
LRH, TRUSTEE FOR TRANSFER, for some years the Commonwealth
(overseas, not U.S.) interests belonging to the Hubbard Association
of Scientologists, International, Incorporated, in Arizona, have
been held by LRH, Trustee for Transfer. As the overseas interests
were worthless to the U.S. corporations in the U.S. (HASI, Arizona)
due to currency exchange laws, and was costing it money, the Board
of HASI, Arizona, appointed LRH a trustee for transfer for ail
Commonwealth corporations property or interests with orders to hand
