Chapter Thirteen
The Bilderberg Group -- An Example of Dr. Quigley's
Global Establishment in Action
Every once in awhile, the network lets down its guard long enough for us to get a slight
but alarming peek into the inward parts of the mammoth machine which Dr. Quigley believes is
now too big to stop. When one contemplates the interlocking global ramifi
confident about its ultimate and irrevocable victory. Nevertheless, we shall have something to
cations which this
power structure had developed, it is little wonder that Dr. Quigley feels so tremendously
say about this in a moment.
Meanwhile, let us take a look at some of the "conferences"
[page 108]
called by the
global establishment. These are held each year as an international master planning conclave.
They are secret and attendance is restricted to invited "guests." These turn o
ut to be about 100
international banking dynasties, their corporations involved in vast, international enterprises, the
American tax-exempt foundations, and the establishm
ent representatives who have gained high
offices in government, especially the United States government.
Prince Bernhard
These conferences always have the same chairman his royal highness Prince Bernhard of
the Netherlands, who, with his family, owns a massive fortune in the Royal Dutch Shell Oil
Corporation. Then, close at hand, will always be David Rockefeller representin
g his family and
especially Standard Oil of New Jersey which is one of the largest corporate structures in
existence. It is interesting that in the past two decades when political revolutions have occurred
in various parts of the world, these two companies
usually end up with all of the oil and natural
gas concessions. This has been largely true in Africa, the Middle East, South America and the
Far East. These are also the companies whose installations seem to be virtually off limits to the
bombers in both
sides of any recent war.
We mention this simply to demonstrate the fact that Dr. Quigley does seem to be correct
in alleging that the political and economic forces of the earth are being woven into a gigantic
monolith of total global power. As Raymond B. Fosdick, one of those who
Williamsburg, Virginia. They have also met in Canada, Turkey,

these Bilderberg conferences, has said, the Bilderberg partners are spinning "the infinity of
threads (ec
onomically and politically) which bind peace together."

And of course the "peace"
they have in mind is compulsive cooperation,
which a socialized world government could
enforce upon humanity to the exclusion of any significant resistance-hence there would be peace
envision it.
Prince Bernhard convened the first of these conferences during May, 1954, at the
Bilderberg Hotel in Oosterbeek, Netherlands, Ever since then the group has been called The
Bilderberg Group. However, they meet at various places. The 1957 meeting was held o
coast of Georgia on St. Simons Island, not far from Jekyl Island where a secret meeting was held
in 1908 to set up the format for the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank. The 1964 meetings were at
Germany, England and France.
All of their meetings are closed. No secretary takes notes of the
[page 109]
speeches. No
reporters sit in on the debates. And when Prince Bernhard brings down the gavel for the close of
the conference, no handouts, policy statements or copies of their ad
opted resolutions are given to
the press. The conferees depart to the four corners of the earth to carry out their adopted goals but
the world is never given the slightest hint as to what has been decided.
This is particularly frustrating to Congress which has tried several times to ferret out the
activities of these Bilderberg conferences. Even when top government officials such as Navy
Secretary, Paul Nitze, were placed under oath and interrogated, it bec
ame virtually impossible to
learn anything of significance.
The only press representatives in attendance have been trusted Establishment
personalities such as Arthur Hays Sulzberger, president and publisher of

Apparently, the great fear of the Bilderberg Group has been the possibility of infiltration
and exposure. They therefore sometimes make a pretense of publicizing their meetings and even
acknowledging who has been invited so that the presence of so many wo

personalities will not look quite so conspiratorial or mysterious. At least this has helped to
demonstrate who is represented at these conferences and what political and economic allies are

Here, for example, in addition to these already mentioned, are typical individuals who
frequent these conferences:
Joseph E. Johnson, President of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace (which
finances most of these conferences).

Prince Bernhard set up the first conference in 1954.

Perhaps this is enough to represent the width and breadth of global influence which is
present when the Bilderberg Group is called into session.
The Pugwash Conferences
The student of Dr. Quigley's global establishment should also be familiar with another
facet of the power struggle -- the Pugwash Conferences. These are the pride and joy of the
Canadian-American multimillionaire, Cyrus Eaton.
Cyrus Eaton
Cyrus Eaton was born in Nova Scotia but became a naturalized U.S. citizen. He began his
career with John D. Rockefeller, Sr., and eventually became a successful financial tycoon in
public utilities, steel, banking, railroading, mining, and the paint indus
try. Eaton's interests have
included the Republic Steel Corporation, Otis & Company, the Sherwin-Williams Company, and
Baltimore and Ohio Railway, the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway, and various utility companies in
both Canada and the United States. His son'
s company, Tower International, Inc., has joined with
the Rockefeller brothers' International Basic Economy Corporation, to promote trade between the
Communist bloc and the United States, Canada and Latin America.
Cyrus Eaton is committed to the proposition that the Soviet Union and the United States
must be amalgamated. He is host to prominent Communist officials whenever they visit the
United States and he is a frequent visitor to the iron curtain countries.
In 1954 Eaton dedicated his ancestral home at Pugwash, Nova Scotia, as a retreat for
intellectuals of his liking. In 1957, he helped

Since 1957, more than a dozen Pugwash conferences have been held in various parts of
the last four administrations. Much of the discussion has centered around wa
ys and means of
getting the United States to disarm. Cyrus Eaton has labored tirelessly for U.S. diplomatic
recognition of Red China and is the recipient of the Lenin Peace Prize -- an award reserved
exclusively for those who have made highly significant c
ontributions to the advancement of the
interests of the Soviet Union.
Obviously, the Bilderbergers, Pugwash conferees, and other master-planners of the global
establishment have a lot of things going for them.

So Where Does All of This Leave Traditional Americans?
