moment, the masses would grasp stupidly for the priest, the minister, the clergy, when-
ever mental conditions came into question. Today in Europe and America "scientific
practices" in the field of the mind would not last moments if not routinely enforced by
officialdom.
Care must be taken to hide the fact that the incidence of insanity has increased only
since these "scientific practices" started to be applied. Much mention must be made of
"the pace of modern living" and other myths as the cause of the increased neurosis in the
world. We care nothing about what causes it if anything does. But we must tolerate no
evidence of any kind to get out and drive the public back to the church. If given their
heads, if left to themselves to decide, independent of officialdom, where they would place
their deranged loved ones the public would choose religious sanitariums and would
avoid as if plagued the places where "scientific practices" prevail.
Given any slight encouragement, public support would instantly sweep all mental
healing back into the hands of the churches. And there are churches waiting to receive it,
clever churches. That terrible monster, the Roman Catholic Church, still dominates men-
tal healing throughout the Christian world and well schooled priests are always at work
to draw the public back to the fold. Among Fundamentalist and Pentecostal groups heal-
ing campaigns are conducted, which, because of their results, win many to the cult of
Christianity.

In the field of pure healing, the Church of Christ Science of Boston, Massachusetts
excels in commanding the public favor and operates many sanitariums. All these must
be swept aside. They must be ridiculed and defamed and every cure they advertise must
be labeled a hoax. A full fifth of a psychopolitician s time should be devoted to smash-
ing these threats. Just as in Russia we had to destroy the Church after many, many years
of the most arduous work, so we must destroy all faiths in nations marked for conquest.
Insanity must hound the footsteps of every priest and practitioner. The best testimoni-
als to his skill must be turned into gibbering madmen no matter what means we have to
use.
You need not care what effect you have upon the public. The effect you care about is
the one upon officials. You must recruit every agency of the nation marked for slaughter
into a foaming hatred of religious healing. You must suborn district attorneys and judges
into an intense belief as fervent as an ancient faith in God that Christian Science or any
other religious practice that might devote itself to mental healing is vicious, bad, insani-
ty-causing, publicly hated and intolerable.
You must suborn and recruit any medical healing organization into collusion in this
campaign. You must appeal to their avarice and even their humanity to invite their coop-
eration in smashing all religious healing and thus, to our end, care of the insane. You
must see that such societies have only qualified Communist-indoctrinees as their advi-
sors in this matter. For you can use such societies. They are stupid and stampede easily.
Their cloak and degrees can be used quite well to mask any operation we care to have
masked. We must make them partners in our endeavor so that they will never be able to
crawl out from under our thumb and discredit us.
We have battled in America since the turn of the century to bring to nothing any and
all Christian influences and we are succeeding. While today we seem to be kind to the
Christian remember that we have yet to influence the "Christian world" to our ends.
When that is done we shall have an end of them everywhere. You may see them here in
Russia as trained apes. They do not know their tether will stay long only until the apes
in other lands have become unwary.
You must work until "religion" is synonymous with "insanity". You must work until
the officials of city, county, and state governments will not think twice before they pounce
upon religious groups as public enemies.
Remember, all lands are governed by the few who only pretend to consult with the
many. It is no different in America. The petty official, the maker of laws alike can be
made to believe the worst. It is not necessary to convince the masses. It is only necessary
to work incessantly upon the official, using personal defamation, wild lies, false evidence,
and constant propaganda to make him fight for you against the church or against any
practitioner.

Like the official, the bona fide medical healer also believes the worst if it can be shown
to him as dangerous competition. And like the Christian, should he seek to take from us
any right we have gained, we shall finish him as well.
We must be like the vine upon the tree. We use the tree to climb and then, strangling
it, grow into power on its flesh.
We must strike from our path any opposition. We must use for our tools any authori-
ty that comes to hand. And then at last, the decades having sped by, we can dispense
with all authority save our own and triumph in the greater glory of the Party.

Proposals
That Must be Avoided
here are certain damaging movements that could interrupt a psychopolitical con-
quest. These, coming from some quarters of the country, might gain headway.
TThey should be spotted before they do, and stamped out.
Proposals may be made by large and powerful groups in the country to return the
insane to the care of those who have handled mental healing for tribes and populaces for
centuries the priests. Any movement to place clergymen in charge of institutions
should be fought on the grounds of incompetence and the insanity brought about by reli-
gion. The most destructive thing that could happen to a psychopolitical program would
be to entrust the ministry with the care of the nation s insane.
If mental hospitals operated by religious groups are in existence, they must be discred-
ited and closed, no matter what the cost, for the actual figures of recovery in such insti-
tutions might be compared to them. This might lead to a movement to place the clergy
in charge of the insane. Every argument must be advanced early, to overcome any pos-
sibility of this ever occurring.
A country s law must be made carefully to avoid granting any personal rights to the
insane. Any suggested laws or Constitutional Amendments that would make the harm-
ing of the insane unlawful, should be fought to the extreme, on the grounds that only vio-
lent measures can succeed in their treatment. If the law were to protect the insane, as it
normally does not, the entire psychopolitical program would quite possibly collapse.
Any movement to increase or place under surveillance the orders required to hospital-
ize the mentally ill should be discouraged. This should be left entirely in the hands of
persons well under the control of psychopolitical operatives. It should be done with min-
imum formality, and no recovery of the insane from an institution should be possible by
any process of law. Thus, any movement to add to the legal steps required in the process-
es of commitment and release should be discouraged on the grounds of emergency. To
get around this, the best policy is to place a psychiatrist and a detention ward for the
mentally ill in every hospital in a land.
Any writings of a psychopolitical nature, accidentally revealing themselves, should be
