" This evening the last in a 10-part special series of reports
called "Second to None?" was shown on ABC's World News Tonight
program. For two entire weeks the series has drummed away night
after night about America's military weakness compared to Russia.
Full-page newspaper ads have urged viewers to watch the series;
so have various newspaper articles. And the series itself has
carried so much impact that it has made an indelible impression
on millions of Americans. Most of all, the nine-minute
installment on April 17 describing the outbreak of nuclear war
between Russia and America left many viewers badly shaken. The
frightening picture painted in the ABC news series is accurate as
far as it goes, but it also would have been accurate three to
four years ago. We were not shown these things then, so the
question is: WHY NOW? One reason that has been given is that we
might be about to sign the SALT II treaty with Russia, and that
we ought to look before we leap. But if that were the real
reason, a series like this should have been shown more than 18
months ago; because that is when SALT I expired and the air was
full of promises of a new SALT treaty then.

My friends, the people who put together the ABC documentary
series did a very good job indeed; but the reason our Bolshevik
rulers want it to be shown now is to help add to the atmosphere
of war tensions. They also want to make sure that SALT II, if it
is signed, will generate a storm of controversy and be defeated
in the Senate. If that happens, it will be like closing the door
to peace and telling the world that war with Russia is
inevitable. In more and more ways the atmosphere of mounting
crisis and the threat of war is being stoked up by the Bolsheviks
here in America. The low drum beat of BRING BACK THE DRAFT keeps
coming back over and over, a little louder each time. The
specter of gas rationing keeps haunting the news as the
artificial crisis in the Middle East heats up. For example,
former Defense Secretary Melvin Laird now says the government
should institute gas rationing just to make the crisis seem more
real to people. Can you imagine?

My friends, I realize that today, as in the past, many people
are skeptical about what I have to reveal. After all, these
things are probably contrary to what they have heard from
friends, family, teachers, and the news media. They do not have
my intelligence sources; and if I were to reveal these sources,
they would dry up. But I believe that my duty is simply to
reveal the truth--not cover it up just because it may be hard to
accept.

This month events have been moving very fast in startling
ways. Four days ago I said over the Ed Busch Show on WFAA,
Dallas, Texas, that the take-over here in the United States has
already taken place. The people you will see on your television
screens are not the people you think they are! Now I can say
more. [...]"
