STATEMENT OF PURPOSE 

Our purpose is to promote religious freedom and the Scientology
Religion by spreading the Scientology Tech across the internet.

The Cof$ abusively suppresses the practice and use of
Scientology Tech by FreeZone Scientologists.  It misuses the
copyright laws as part of its suppression of religious freedom.

They think that all freezoners are "squirrels" who should be
stamped out as heretics.  By their standards, all Christians, 
Moslems, Mormons, and even non-Hassidic Jews would be considered
to be squirrels of the Jewish Religion.

The writings of LRH form our Old Testament just as the writings
of Judaism form the Old Testament of Christianity.

We might not be good and obedient Scientologists according
to the definitions of the Cof$ whom we are in protest against.

But even though the Christians are not good and obedient Jews,
the rules of religious freedom allow them to have their old 
testament regardless of any Jewish opinion.  

We ask for the same rights, namely to practice our religion
as we see fit and to have access to our holy scriptures
without fear of the Cof$ copyright terrorists.

We ask for others to help in our fight.  Even if you do
not believe in Scientology or the Scientology Tech, we hope
that you do believe in religious freedom and will choose
to aid us for that reason.

Thank You,

The FZ Bible Association

SMC-1  1 Jan 60 Opening Lecture


Transcript of lecture by L. Ron Hubbard SMC-1  "State of
Man Congress"

OPENING LECTURE

A lecture given on 1 January 1960

[Based on the clearsound version only.]


Thank you.

I either have an awfully efficient claque or you're very
glad to see me.

How are you?

Audience: Fine.

Female voice: How are you?

Oh, I'm jet happy. Actually, during the last thirty days I
have covered more space - during the last sixty days I have
out - Columbused Columbus and out - Magellaned Magellan. 
Except I didn't discover very much terrestrially, that is.

Well, I'm awfully glad you're here for this congress. I'm
very glad to have the opportunity to talk to you, because,
believe me, this is going to be a congress. I'm sorry to
have to tell you that, but postulates are working lately,
so I might as well postulate that one, huh?

Well, you never saw quite so much happen since has happened
last July. There's been a tremendous jump forward, and if
you think there's ever been a technological breakthrough,
you ought to look at this one. Now, you'll be glad you came
to this congress, just as I'm glad you're here so that I
could tell you about this, because we got it licked.

Every once in a while I tell you, "This is it." Well,
that's - and always before it's applied to a few of you. 
But you know something? I am getting so much fun out of
auditing lately I can hardly keep my hands off cases.
That's a fact. I mean, I can just hardly keep my
cotton-picking hands off of them. It's - requires 
self-control.

I see somebody limping along, you know, saying, "I'm Clear,
I'm Clear," you know? And I say, "Rurfff! Sit down in that
chair. Ha-ha, ha-ha. Ha, ha, ha. Hhhh. Pick up those cans.
Ha-ha, ha-ha, ha. Now! Oh! 6.5 on the tone arm. Ha-ha-ha,
ha-ha."

"Well," he says, "I am this way in the morning." "Usually,"
he says, "I go down throughout the day." And then I
restrain myself, keep my blast gun in its holster and make
myself agreeable and ask the proper questions. And that's
one more case chalked off.

Well now, I'm not going to do it two and a half billion
times. That's where you come in. Now, I know that there are
some good people have come here who have never looked at
Scientology before. I'm always told with some horror by an
auditor who has just brought some people to a congress that
he had two people with him who had never heard of it before
and would I please be just a little less technical. And I'm
always happy to be just a little bit less technical. But
what was the matter with him that he didn't gen them in?

But you good people that are here, who have never really
taken much of a look at Scientology before, why, we'll try
to keep you filled in and we'll try to take it easy on you.
But that doesn't mean you don't have to do the Group
Processing I'm going to give in these next three days.
Because I'm going to group process you a couple of hours
the next three days, if that's all right with you. So don't
feel exonerated. Just because you don't know anything about
Scientology doesn't mean your case is untouchable.

I've just been out with the untouchables and they can be
processed, too. I almost said "processed," you know? You
know, that's probably the biggest problem we have in
Scientology, is keeping this word "process" straight. I get
into the sterling areas you know and it's "processed," and
I get over to the US and it's "processed," you know? And I
get confused about the whole thing, so I'm not going to
talk American or English; I'm just going to speak
language, if it's all right with you.

Male voice: Okay.

Well sir, we turned on some beautiful weather for you here.
Took a little doing - took a little doing, took a little
pull, but we made it. Understand you even had a white
Christmas in Washington, and you certainly had one up to
the north, didn't you?

Audience: Yeah. Oh.

Well, we try to oblige. Try to oblige.

Of course, things don't run always perfectly in this
universe - not always perfectly. There are occasional little
slips. You hear the grate of the cog-wheels, you know, and
the - sort of an arcing spark over here in one of the
capacitors once in a while, but just ignore it, just ignore
it. Because I assure you it's all for the best in this best
of all possible universes. It's all been planned.

And it was my great pleasure to process the fellow who 
drew up the plan for the Ice Cube and Fac One. Did that
recently. I'm having lots of adventures. He felt bad about
it. The same fellow was on duty at Jerusalem when Rome
decided to lay aside its policies and persecute the
Christians. How's that for fate? These guys just seem to
get themselves in the right spot at the right time.

Well - also have had some other adventures - found Karl 
Marx, for instance.

Female voice: You did?

Yeah. He's sorry, too! As a matter of fact, Karl Marx gave
me a signed confession; runs briefly to the effect: "To L.
Ron Hubbard: I shouldn't have done it. I will do everything
possible to undo it. Give me a break. Signed, Karl Marx."
It's quite remarkably Karl Marx's signature, too.

But anyway, there's lots been doing lately and there's lots
of road ahead. If there's ever been a point where we jumped
off this is it. You know, we jumped off in 1950 - something
on the order of the Christians going into the Roman arena.
And those psychiatrists were very hungry lions; they were
very hungry, very hungry - very proud, very proud lions,
beating their paws against their somewhat mangy chests,
saying, "We are the bosses of this here arena." That's what
they thought.

And today I hope that you will get information which will
permit, in another year, a Scientologist to say,
"Scientology processes more psychiatrists in any given year
than any other psychotherapy." That'd be fun, wouldn't it?
Nice ad in The Saturday Evening Post.

Male voice: They said it couldn't be done.

Yes, that's right.

But with all of the stumbling around that we have done
together, we've made a lot of progress even so, even so,
Actually, if we hadn't done all the stumbling around that
we did, we wouldn't be able to kick off now onto a
resolution of cases 1, 2, 3, 4. Tremendous ainount of
technology had to be known. A tremendous amount of this,
that and the other thing had to be dug up, exhumed, laid
out. Fortunately, it didn't stay laid out, it came to life.
And wherever we have erred and strayed away from the levels
of perfect effectiveness we have at least erred in good
faith. And sunilarly, why, I've been the first to correct
the errors. As soon as I found one come up, why, I'd
correct it in an awful hurry.

Now, some of you are under the delusion that 1960 has
arrived. And I imagine some of you were traitorous enough
in the last twenty-four hours to wish people "Happy New
Year" to take place at midnight last night. And you
shouldn't have done that. You shouldn't have done that for
this reason: is New Year's begins at the end of the
congress. And it always has and always will.

Well, we've had ten years here, and we've kicked off the
decade of 1950 and I think perhaps when history rolls
around and they begin to write down all the lies, they
won't be able to avoid something. They can talk about
lutniks and sputniks and all that sort of thing as having
happened in this last decade but there was something else
happened a little more important than that: is man got his
first toehold on the path to freedom, and I think that was
important to man. I think it was a lot more important to
man, by the way - not blowing our own horn or anything like
that - it was a lot more important than having a piece of
iron go gallygagging around the moon, because there's
pieces of iron been going around the moon for a long time.

Well, we've had quite a decade here, haven't we? We've been
over the jumps and around the tight curves and so on, and
some of us look a little bit older, but not much. Some of
us may look a little older but we feel a lot younger I
think that's definitely the case. Some of us wish we'd had
more processing in this last decade, but this is a time to
wipe out all the regrets. Why regret the 50s? We can find
what there is to applaud in them and let the rest go by the
boards.

It was a rather dull decade actually as far as the world at
large was concerned. Nothing much happened. Except us - we
happened. And for ten years, why, we've been holding the
fort, driving people into apathy because we were still
here. It's a very, very bad thing, I realize, to drive
people down as deeply into apathy as we have driven people
into apathy about this fact, but I think it's a matter of
annual congratulations on the part of a great many people
throughout the world that they have finally finished off
Dianetics or Scientology. And they congratulate themselves
to this effect, and then they wake up to a new year and
we're still here.

And lately it's been dawning - it's been dawning upon
people - that we're not only just here but we're 
apparently multiplying at a greater rate than we should be
multiplying. And that, of course, is the point that drives
them into utter apathy.

The only crimes that you can commit in this universe, as
you know, is being there and communicating. Those are the
two crimes of the universe. Did you realize that? There are
only two crimes: being there and communicating.

Look it over for a moment, you'll find out that the only
thing the police want to know is, "Were you there?" If you
weren't there, you weren't guilty. And the other one is
communicating. If you think of all the numbers of people
that are guilty of crimes of omission - the tremendous
numbers of people that are guilty of crimes of omission who
get by with it, you know? They just go right on along the
line, you know, guilty as can be, and nobody ever says a
word. But if they actually said something or fired
something or threw something or something like that, why,
then they were guilty. So that is the crime of communicating.

So being there and communicating was probably all you were
ever punished for when you were a little kid. Didn't much
matter what you communicated. You probably found out that
if you didn't communicate anything, people overlooked it.
Haven't you noticed that? That's practically the total
training of a US general. He's not supposed to be there and
he's not supposed to communicate, and if he does nothing,
why, he'll make it. That isn't said bitterly; it's just
said as a comment on a passe', decadent civilization that
has fallen away from us.

But wherever - wherever you see - wherever you see a piece 
of land on a map these days, you find Scientology. That's 
a rather interesting fact. I'll give you a demonstration 
of that a little bit later in this congress, because it's
worth demonstrating - very, very well worth demonstrating.

We're doing very, very well.

Now, of course, the United States has a slight insularity.
It's an isolationism that it should have maintained
perhaps - 1914 and other times - perhaps it should have
maintained this isolationism. But not having maintained it,
now is not the time to maintain it. Do you follow me? I
mean, having communicated, the US has to follow through.

The United States today has international obligations
greater than that of any other nation on Earth and someday
will find out about them. From the Sunday-Monday line to
the Sunday-Monday line, all the way around the world, you
see the American civilization going out as a vanguard to
American activity.

Last time I was in Australia it was an English colony, an
English possession. It's not now! Buicks, ice-cream cones,
so forth - it's an American possession. It is! Frankly, it's
an American area. And the Australian is not unaware of this
fact.

Now, the last time I had correspondence with Australians
was just after the last war and they were still very
resentful of all the Yanks that had been down there. So
this time when I was in Australia I said, "Well, you know,
I - I'm an American and..."

"Oh, you are?"

And I said, "Well, I know you boys were pretty well beaten
in by all the troops that were here, you know, and - during
the war"

"Yeah, we sure needed them! We sure needed them." Well,
this was a different tone of voice than I had been hearing
before. "Yeah, a great people, the Americans."

And then I started looking around and I found American
methodology operating their airlines and Buick cars on the
roads, and American architecture - which, by the way, I
didn't realize was American architecture till I got back
here. You keep changing it, you know? They're right up to date.

And everywhere you look in Australia, why, you see American
merchandising, American stores, American the rest of it.
And just recently they lifted all of their trade barriers
for America and left them in for England. Mm! And cut
out - within the last thirty days - cut out American
currency-exchange restrictions making it probably the only
area in the sterling area that is now - will inevitably go
totally dollar.

No, America is conquering the world and hasn't found out
about it yet. It's quite remarkable Quite remarkable
There's so much to do here in America and there's so much
doing and there's so much activity and so on that nobody
looks around and finds out that Gregory Peck and some
others have been plowing a pioneer trail.

For instance, I was a judge in ... It's very interesting but
East Grinstead, Sussex, doesn't quite understand why I
can't vote in England. They're having a hard time
understanding that. They don't believe it, you know? They
think I'm kidding them or something of the sort. And I had
not yet been elected as chairman of the county council -
not yet But if I'm not careful I will be.

There are two reasons for this: one is the HCQ WW's
headquarters, of course, is a very beautiful old manor
house, and has to a large degree dominated the politics
and so forth of the area for centuries. So it's a grooved
communication line.

But much more interesting is the fact that an American is
suppused to know all about everything. So I get drafted for
the Road Safety Council. They really didn't know what they
were letting themselves in for. And as soon as they drafted
me for the Road Safety Council, what was the next thing
they did? They made me road safety organizer. Well, he's
the fellow who dreams up and executes all the programs
while the rest of the committee sits there, you see? That's
pretty dangerous.

Old Burke Belknap, years ago, developed a test which you
have today as the Aptitude Test. Well, that's a total
swindle, that title. I'm not responsible for the swindle,
Belknap is. No responsibility for that.

[Burke Belknap: An early Dianeticist and auditor.  He was
on the first professional course for auditors given in 1950.
 - From the glossary included with the transcript.]

And Belknap (with some tiny assistance from around about
the place) dreamed up something that demonstrated an auto
accident-prone in order to turn this over to the Arizona
Highway Patrol and make them test everybody in the - in 
the place that came in for a driver's license. And it 
would show up at once the fellow that was going to have 
an accident. And that's your Aptitude Test. And the whole
thing is based on just that. If you notice, it speaks of
cars right in the beginning of it.

Well, that Aptitude Test has been - just been sitting there
waiting to fire for years. And all of a sudden a safety
committee says, "Wouldn't you like to be a member?"

And I said, "Well, ahem, upon my soul, ahem, ahem, ahem,
ahem, well, ahem, rather, ahem, civic duty, ahem," and
accepted, you see?

And for the next few months, I can tell you in confidence,
why, we'll just run a standard American safety program.
Now, they put me in there, because as an American I, of
course, know everything to know about road safety because
America has more accidents - no, that's ...

So what they did was buy Americanism. But they're going to
get Scientology in six or eight months, because I'll start
persuading the traffic division to administer this Aptitude
Test. And as soon as we've collected some statistics, we
will demonstrate conclusively, you see, that if you test
them before you license them, you pick out the people that
are going to have an accident and then you don't have
accidents. And when we get all the figures compiled, then
we will see that it gets to have the force of law in
England and then we can point out to the United States that
England, the pioneer of all such things... And one fine
day, why, you'll have the Aptitude Test being administered
in the United States before anybody grants a license.

These things are rather devious, but they're - we're
straighter than most deviousnesses.

But anyway, you would be utterly amazed at how American
civilization is spreading out across the Earth - and it is
American civilization - and how it is less and less resented,
less and less resisted.

There was a time when people were saying, "Well, that's -
that's the way it ought to be done, you know, because
that's the way we've done it here in Northern Ireland for
the last begorra and begods, so that's the way it should be
done." No, they wouldn't say that now. They'd say, "Well,
unless there's an American system that has improved on
this, we will do it our way." That's kind of the way it goes.

Now, in this country, why, we're educated to some degree to
believe that Russia is doing something or is reaching
someone or is - has something to do with the world at
large. And they do have a certain philosophy that appeals
to the have-nots, and are quite popular in Asia, but the
only reason Americanism isn't spreading into Asia is
somebody dropped an iron curtain. I don't know who dropped
the iron curtain, but it wasn't the Russki. He didn't have
strength enough to even drop a flatiron.

But it's rather a shame that there are certain parts of
Earth that aren't getting a treat of this tremendous bath
of popcorn, Coca-Cola and so forth. But it's only those
areas that our State Department has determined shouldn't
have it. We're cause with regard to this.

Now, the Russian - the Russian can only confuse things, and
that's his specialty, and he doesn't really have any other
specialty. I hate to have to be that blunt about it, but he
can go in and deprave, confuse, upset and mess up
something. And on a higher technical level, where he
devotes a tremendous amount of slave labor and dedication,
all mixed up together and confused, to some project, he can
get rid of some technological wonderworld thing. But his
civilization is so starved today that he has to take new
countries in order to feed his own country.

The poor Russian is more to be pitied than censured,
because you make anybody hungry enough and he's liable to
do almost anything. Did you see that after his visit to the
United States that Khrushchev said, bluntly and flatly,
that he would even go to the devil to arrange dollar
credits, and therefore had been to the United States. Did
you see that?

You almost never get any European news in America because
your outflow from America is so great abroad that there's
hardly anything can get back over the lines.

But Khrushchev wanted credit. He wanted food, and he wanted
various things to try to straighten out the mishmash that
communism has made out of their own civilization. And if 
 - unless somebody gets knuckleheaded and keeps on talking
about war and the necessities of war and how if you don't
have war you don't promote enough generals, or whatever
other reason they have wars for. I've studied this very
carefully, and I find out that it's normally a matter of
numerical order of promotion that causes war. I think
that's probably the most fundamental, reasonable, logical
reason why we have wars. Because, you see, they get their
orders of seniority mixed up, you know? And in a war they
can expand their promotion lists, and it permits them to
straighten it all out. You get the idea? I think that's
about it. I looked into it - looked into it.

Of course, I'm no student of international affairs. If I
were a student of international affairs I would have been
locked up a long time ago.

But American - the American civilization today is taking
Earth. And you'd never find out about it reading your
newspapers in this country. You just never would find out
about it. It's - you have to scatter around the world to
take a look at this oddity. Once upon a time, why, there
were various manners and customs. And about the only thing
that has remained are certain things that are unmistakably
French. These French things have remained. But otherwise,
hardly anything else is stable.

The French do certain things, you know? They set tables in
a certain way. Did you know that? You know, they set tables
in an exact way, and they're the people that are responsiNe
for your getting that number of spoons, knives, forks and
plates and glasses in front of your plate - See, I don't
know if you realized that. It's a great contribution.

I remember when we first trained them to do it in Paris I
remember when we first trained them to do it there in
Paris, and they said, "This will be a great contribution."
They've been contributing it ever since.

But aside from little oddities of that character which
Americanisms have. imbibed, and aside from the fact that
all the food in Amenca is really Spanish ... That's
right, American cuisine is Spanish cooking, did you know
that? Great oddity Just like all American cowboy gear is
Spanish. We've borrowed from various civilizations here or
there, but when it all gets put togethtsr and they really
want to get the show on the road, it's an Americanism. You
see the difference?

Once it's all put together, packaged, a going concern, and
somebody is doing something about it, it's an Americanism.

Now, you wonder why I'd spend so much time abroad. Well,
you could censure me for that. You could if you wished,
because it's a little bit reprehensible of my - on my part
to put in as much time outside the borders of the United
States as I have put in in the last ten years. But there's
a good reason for it, as you should realize. And that is,
with as much arms and ammunition drifting around, as much
atomic fission and other things in the offing, the ability
to govern must be supported and must be spread around. And
you cannot govern people unless people are governable.

They've been trying to give people down in the Cameroons
here for some time some independence. Have you noticed
that? Every time they say "independence," the people in
the Cameroons, they kill off another thirty or forty
natives. There are some five thousand people have been
killed in the Cameroons just trying to establish
civilization in the Cameroons, because nobody ever started
at a basic, which is to have somebody there to give
civilization to. That's been neglected. They took people
who were totally dedicated to certain tribal procedures,
took those people and said, "You're free."

And they said, "Free. Free? Free. Ah! You mean there's no
police anymore." Boom! Boom!

America - America actually has - aside from ourselves - 
has very little cultural message to offer the world. And 
we're grooving that down.

Now we can spend some time on America. We're going to look
around the country now and see if we can't find a proper
place for a central headquarters. I haven't much hope that
we will find one immediately and exactly, but that is one
of the things which I have got to do here before the middle
of summer Got to find a little better locale and straighten
the thing up and so forth where - that can handle a little
traffic. Washington can handle quite a bit of traffic, but
not nearly as much as the traffic you're going to get on
the back of your neck.

Now, therefore, it's necessary that we arrange our own
communication lines. You possibly think that one nation
can live alone. Well, it can't. Or that one race can live
alone, but it can't. Or that one person can live alone, but
he can't.

This sort of thing is best explained by the eight dynamics.
And we look over those eight dynamics and we start finding
some things out with what we know now, not only that
demonstrates the accuracy of the original plotting of the
dynamics (which is only a matter of pride), but which
demonstrates a very, very great workability in terms of
clearing people. We've been trying to clear people on the
first dynamic, and we can clear people on the first
dynamic, but they're not clear on the second and third, let
me tell you.

And what I've arrived at this congress with was how to
clear them on the first, second, third, fourth, fifth,
sixth, seventh and eighth dynamics. A small contribution.

Yes, it is very interesting to hit a jackpot. Did you ever
walk up - you've been in Las Vegas, I'm sure, or Maryland or
some of these other gambling hells, and you have a quarter
that you don't quite know what to do with and you just feel
in the mood to waste quarters, you know? And you walk over
to a machine and you say, "Well, that machine looks like
the most losing machine in the place. I'll put my quarter
in it," you know? And you throw your quarter in it, you
know and you pull the one-armed bandit's arm, and it goes
all over the floor.

Of course you say, well, you're the one who expected to
win. But you didn't expect to win, not if you were playing
a one-armed bandit. Therefore the surprise is very great.

Well, I didn't have that much surprise in just the last few
months in sorting this thing out - not that much surprise -
but it's sort of like that. There was one thing - one pair 
of things which unlocked a lot of gates and doors, and let 
a lot of theta flow around. The main thing in letting it flow
around is not to be caught in the whirlpool. That's why you
have to be a good auditor.

But we're now not in a position where we are dependent on a
national government, and that's why I've been abroad. The
original plot was a very simple one. And that was to say
that if people antipathetic to us as well as the best
interests of the United States, and vice versa - if people
who were so dedicated to vested interests of keeping
everything down and keeping everything under their
heels - if these people continued to be the sole source of
regulation of our affairs and activities (as they would if
we were only under one government), then we were limited to
a marked degree in that there were certain things we could
not do and certain experiments we could not engage upon
because they were illegal from a standpoint of; let us say -
well, the laws of the United States.

They tell you that you mustn't heal anybody. That it's
against the law to heal any... Take California. I hate to
bring it up, but take California. There are twenty-five
diseases that you go to jail for curing in California. And
I saw the original law on it and, although I read it
carelessly, of course, and could be wrong, it appeared that
even if a medical doctor cured them he would be sent to
jail at once. They're cancer, tuberculosis, other serious
illnesses. And the curing of these things was definitely
against the law.

Now, I'm possibly exaggerating it. It probably said that
you mustn't say you had cured them. If you cured them you
must keep it quiet, or something like that. There are
probably some ramifications to it, and undoubtedly the law
has been modified today to read that only the members of
the I Will Arise Communist Association of Northern
Sacramento is permitted to cure them, or something like
that... But the point is that it was illegal to do certain
things in certain areas of the world.

We didn't have a prayer in certain research lines if we
continued to be governed totally by a hidebound idea of
certain things should be cured and certain things mustn't
be cured and certain things must be looked in - mustn't be
looked into, and other things mustn't he looked into and so
forth. And we - we were in a situation in 1952 whereby our
communication lines and everything we were doing could have
been cut off by the vested interests in sickness in the
United States. We were in that position in 1952.

Now, you can discount it. You can say, "Well, it wssn't as
senous as Ron makes out, it didn't kill me." Something of
that sort, but nevertheless there was that danger. And the
only solution which I could make workable at that time was
put a communication into the United States from abroad.

I knew that this itself would have an apathizing effect.
That even though every single auditor in the country was
thrown in the ditch, even though every publication were
burned, even though everything were done to end it all in
one country, it could still come in from another country.
And that was a preventive measure which would inhibit the
inhibition of the research, investigation and application
of the principles of the mind which we at that time were
engaged upon.

Now you can rate me, if you want to, for undue caution. But
remember, I was the guy in the middle of the arena. And
every time lions jumped, somehow or other a claw hit me.
Get the idea? Every time somebody started getting careless
with javelins, I felt the wind of them. So whereas the
individual Dianeticist might not have - have thought too
much of this, he perhaps wasn't carrying the accumulated
burden.

Well, to lessen that burden, I mixed up our comm lines and
made it a very, very upsetting thing to anybody attacking
us - to fix it up so that no agency could operate totally
against us in one country and wipe us out. And that was the
strategy. And I went to England and put in communication
lines in England.

Now, at the same time, a great deal of interest had been
generated in England. The first book had been published
there, even if indifferently, by a publisher and a
tremendous amount of enthusiasm was generated there.

Now, all of this activity in England had gotten to a point
where several organizations were at each other's throats.
There were several organizations, and several groups, and
they were all in disagreement with one another. And it was
very easy for me to get an invitation to straighten this
out. And having put in an organization there, we were able
then, by making it totally self-supporting, to make it a
cross-action with the United States.

Now, don't think that the United States interests did not
at that moment get very busy. As a matter of fact, they got
extremely busy. They had the tag end of the socialist
government to operate with. The last dregs of socialism and
so forth were just at that moment dripping out of the veins
of Great Britain, and they promptly labeled practically
everybody and everything that had anything to do with
Dianetics and Scientology as very evil and very bad. And 
we were practically blacklisted for three or four years.
Eventually cleaned it up with two members of the House of
Lords, several people in Commons, and just recently, why,
the British government said, "Hubbard? Hubbard? Why, yes,
he can have a visa as long as he likes. Yes. Fine chap,
fine chap, you know." So we even lived that one down.

But things were being booted into England to knock out
Dianetics and Scientology from the United States. Well, we
finally got that straightened out.

But nobody could quite make the grade. If at any moment
Scientology had been wiped out in the United States, it
would have still come in from England. Furthermore, if it
had been wiped out in England, it could still have come in
from the United States. Interesting, huh?

Now how would you like to be some vested interest that
didn't like us? That would be a tough spot to be in,
wouldn't it? Well, they were outgeneraled. And gradually
no funds could be procured anymore to squash us. Actual
funds were being procured and solicited.

"What's this? Somebody trying to set man free? Ha-ha! Not
while we're still alive and kicking," these fellows were
saying. So, the same thing - if you don't think this isn't 
a repetitive cycle... We've gone on and on and on to other
countries, and things are straightening out here and there,
but what do you know, at this very moment this same thing
is happening in Australia. And anybody who was with us in
1950 would do as I'm - I do every time I look at the
Australian attacks on Dianetics and Scientology: you would
start to laugh because it's now gotten funny. The same
stories, the same lies, the same thing just as though
somebody had taken it off of a big blueprint, see? They're
publishing the same newspaper stories and they're telling
the same lies about Hubbard, you see. They're telling the
same lies about auditors, producing the same arguments. And
it's all coming out of an area in Sydney - only, by this 
time we know what to do about that sort of thing.

And we, of course, have Australia in a clamp. Not only is
Australia now so connected with the United States that any
time it got wiped out there it would just come in from the
United States, but would also come in from England. And if
England and the United States were wiped out, it would also
come into Australia from South Africa. The South African
organization is as large as the British organization - and
other areas it could also come in on.

Furthermore, we have all of a sudden dreamed up the
technology to end all technologies, and it ends this sort
of thing. But this type of internationalism was to pave
the way against the time we would have the answers to these
things. And we find ourselves now a very international
organization. We are traveling along and actually aiding
and abetting the American culture which is spreading out
across the world. We are doing a great deal in this
particular direction.

But we're in an interesting position, because abroad - 
abroad they have a tendency to believe, you see, that America 
is this smart. And that if this Scientology is part and 
parcel to American culture, then of course all of the mental
healers and everybody in America who know anything about
the mind, you see, they're naturally all Scientologists.
And I never saw such a puzzled man in my life as an army
major general - US Army major general in London, that I got
full reports on - having to explain Scientology to a group 
of British medical doctors. Had he not done so, he would have
been labeled a fraud.

Now, it isn't that we're doing anything very slippery; it's
just the way the world goes. It's just the way the world
turns. These are the things that happen around the world.
And in ten years, we've girdled the globe. And we've done
it so well, it's about time we took our source point. It's
about time we finished up taking America.

Because if anything were started now to finish off or stop
our taking America - it's something like old infantry
tactics. You had certain enfilade fire. Have you ever heard
of enfilade fire? It comes in from all angles. Well, that's
what would happen. I mean, we're not in any precarious
position at all. Nothing could be done today to stamp out
Dianetics and Scientology, nothing. I don't think anybody
could even whip up a - a penny in the United States to
support an attack against Dianetics or Scientology.

I think the Los Angeles radio stations and so forth that
occasionally break loose on it - I think they're going to get
in line. If you notice, within the last twenty-four hours
the attorney general of the United States started preaching
about cleanup radio - he's hearing me just one year late -
using radio licenses to clean up attacks of a scandalous 
nature upon worthy objects.

We'll make it. There isn't any question now about making
it. We can make it technologically, we can make it
personally, we can make it on the various dynamics, we can
make it internationally, we can make it around the world
without any trouble and we can make it in America in
Oshkosh and Pumpkin-Center and Washington, DC and New York
City and other hick places.

The only question is, is how fast. And that question
depends to some degree on me, of how hard do I work - that's
only to some degree. But to a very, very marked degree
depends on you: How much work are you going to do about it?
Now that's very important.

Now, I'm not trying to hang you with a tremendous
responsibility, I'm not trying to say that here at this
congress the only thing I should do is to just pound it
into you that you're responsible and that you ought to do
it and that I don't have anything to do anymore because
I've dreamed it all up, you see, and you should get out
there and pitch and you should do this and you should do
that. And you look at yourself and look at your small zones
of influence and you say, "Well, I - what could I possibly
do?" you see, "I mean..." And it makes you feel sort of
frantic. I'm not trying to drive that home. All I'm trying
to do is to invite a coordinated activity. All I'm trying
to do is to help us feel our way through this immediate
problem.

We are facing a culture which is cultured in everything 
but the humanities. For instance, I was reading on a
soda-water bottle last night, I - lying in bed and I had
a - had a drink before I went to sleep, and I was looking
there - sort of dazedly just before I turned out the light,
you know - and it says, "This soda water is made by a special
formula patented by the soda-water bottling company." And I
thought, "Oh, my God, they've even now got a special
formula for soda water!" Yes, it's all taped, you see? It's
all grooved. Everything is all patented. And we know what
carburetors should do and what this should do and how all
the technology goes together and how all of the formulas
should work. And we know everything except how to be 
civilized.

And that is our small section of this problem, and that is
our small contribution to this particular culture. Because
Americanism flowing around the world and back and forth
across America (and it's come a long way - culturally and
mechanically only) would come to nothing. We would not wind
up with a cultured or civilized Earth just because the
special formula for soda water got to South Africa. We
wouldn't get anyplace.

The only way that this planet can get anywhere now is for
these communication lines, well plowed in along the
mechanical lines on mechanical subjects and so forth - if
these also carried - they do, you know, to some degree 
carry a message of freedom, of this, of that. Americans are
supposed to believe certain things and all that. All these
things are perfectly good. But they would have to carry a
much more concrete message, a much more definite
understanding of man, in order to be valuable to man at
large. And in that way alone, we could avoid war We could
definitely avoid war. War couldn't exist.

Now, I'm not saying that we would eventually become the
government of Earth or anything stupid like this. I'm just
saying that we should put on the communication lines of
Earth the message that man can be civilized, can be free
and can understand himself and can get along with his
fellows. And if we put the technology of how to do that on
these very same communication lines, then we'd win, you'd
win, man at large would win and we would have for a change
in this downgrading universe a win and a big win.

Now, we have an opportunity to make that win now. Actually,
it's all set up. It's set up with almost great perfection
right at this present moment.

Later lectures, I'm going to tell you how we are already
knocking-off one of the principal goals of Scientology,
and I'm going to show you how you're knocking it off. But
right now, let me say that we've got a big opportunity
here. And the reason I'm glad to be able to give you this
congress is to be able to hand along to you what I have
found out and what has been put together here in just the
last few months that is highly advantageous in driving
this thing home. We are tremendously rich in communication
lines. We are actually - our ranks are a little thin, but
we're really pretty rich in people, by quality not by
numbers. And I think we can do the job. I don't think it's
a very difficult job to do from here on out as long as we
make up our mind to do this job.

Now, we've had a decade of work along these lines. We've
had a decade of training, of codification, of know-how. If
there's any know-how left to pick up - which of course
there is - but if there's any know-how that we absolutely,
essentially have to have just to do this job, then I at
this moment don't know about it. Because what we have right
this minute and that I'm going to tell you about in this
congress, is plenty good enough.

So thank you for being here, and I'll be back shortly. 

Thank you.
