An Introduction to the Order of Skull and Bones - vHo

Trilateral Commission
William F. Buckley (Editor, National Review and The Order's house
conservative)
McGeorge Bundy (Foundation executive) William Bundy
(Central Intelligence Agency)
George Herbert Walker Bush (President of the United States) The make-up of
the Council on Foreign Relations reflects its purpose as a meeting ground, a
discussion forum. The CFR mainly consists of government officials, industrialists and
academics. The Order has a distinctly different make-up, i.e., many more lawyers, for
example, and a wider variety of declared occupations with far fewer industrialists. The
The Trilateral Commission was founded in 1973 by David Rockefeller and comprises 200 members
world wide, of whom about 77 are American. There is no overlap among memberships; for example,
lumber industrialist Frederick Weyerhaeuser was in The Order, but his son is in the Trilateral
Commission and not The Order. Similarly, Robert Taft, Jr., is in the Trilateral Commission but not
The Order, even though The Order was co-founded by his great grandfather and eight Tafts have been
members. The link is elusive, conceivably there may not be a link.
The Trilateral Commission is not a conspiracy. Its membership list is completely public - it costs a postage
stamp to get one. The Commission publishes dozens of booklets. The organization is completely above
ground. In fact, this author has openly debated with George Franklin, Jr., Coordinator of the Trilateral
Commission on the radio. Mr. Franklin did show a rather ill-concealed dislike for the assault on his pet global
New World Order - and made the mistake of attempting to disguise
this objective, but evasion and hostility do not constitute conspiracy. Conspirators just don't appear on radio
talk shows to debate their objectives.
Temporarily the following facts should be held in mind:
' J. Richardson Dilworth, at Room 3600 Rockefeller Plaza, and the Rockefeller Family Associates' chief
financial and administrative officer, is a member of The Order.
' Percy Rockefeller (1900) was a member of The Order, but no other Rockefeller name is on the list.
J It may be that the Trilateral Commission will prove to be a purely David Rockefeller personal endeavor rather
than a broader establishment vehicle. However, Trilateral purposes, as portrayed in the literature, are almost
identical to those of The Order. It may be a vehicle to attain an interim goal, i.e., three regional groupings. In
this case J. Richardson Dilworth is the conduit and liaison.
Bilderbergers
So far as we can trace, only William F. Buckley is a member of the Bilderbergers and The Order.
Pilgrim Society
The Order does not show up directly on the Executive Committee of !he Pilgrim Society, but only through
family names, i.e., Aldrich and Pratt. The Pilgrim Society is probably a rather harmless social club using its
annual dinners to cement ties between the British and American establishment.
The Inner Circle
Chapter 322 of The Order differs from the CFR, the Trilateral Commission and similar organizations in that
it is truly a secret society. Its purposes and membership are not disclosed. It is paranoid about secrecy and in
covering its trail.
The circumstances that surround the founding of Scroll & Key in the 1850s suggest this secret society may
in fact be Chapter 323. But this is pure speculation. So we have two secret societies that differ extensively from
the CFR, Trilaterals and others and which can be seen as making up an inner circle.
