"<strong>The</strong> Council shall not take any position on questions of foreign policy," <strong>the</strong> organizaofficially<br />
declares.8 It is simply a study group, its spokesmen regularly maintain, <strong>and</strong> its civic-minded members<br />
offered <strong>the</strong>ir expertise in service of <strong>the</strong>ir country during an hour of great peril. And <strong>the</strong>y have continued<br />
to provide <strong>the</strong>ir services ever since.<br />
One who heartily disagreed with those protestations of innocence <strong>and</strong> benevolence was Admiral Chester<br />
Ward, a former Judge Advocate General of <strong>the</strong> Navy, who was himself a member of <strong>the</strong> Council for 16<br />
years. His experience led him to conclude that <strong>the</strong> group was formed for <strong>the</strong> "purpose of promoting<br />
disarmament <strong>and</strong> submergence of U.S. sovereignty <strong>and</strong> national independence into an all-powerful oneworld<br />
government." Toge<strong>the</strong>r with coauthor Phyllis Schlafly, he wrote that <strong>the</strong> most influential clique<br />
within <strong>the</strong> CFR "is composed of <strong>the</strong> one-world-global-government ideologists - more respectfully<br />
referred to as <strong>the</strong> organized internationalists. <strong>The</strong>y are <strong>the</strong> ones who carry on <strong>the</strong> tradition of <strong>the</strong><br />
founders." Moreover, he charged, "this lust to surrender <strong>the</strong> sovereignty <strong>and</strong> independence of <strong>the</strong> <strong>United</strong><br />
States is pervasive throughout most of <strong>the</strong> membership.... <strong>The</strong> majority visualize <strong>the</strong> utopian<br />
submergence of <strong>the</strong> <strong>United</strong> States as a subsidiary administrative unit of a global government...."9 <strong>The</strong>se<br />
are serious charges from a man of considerable distinction who enjoyed <strong>the</strong> benefit of an inside look at<br />
<strong>the</strong> Insiders of <strong>the</strong> American Establishment.<br />
Admiral Ward is far from alone in rendering this harsh judgement of <strong>the</strong> CFR. After surveying <strong>the</strong><br />
colossal damage done to America <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> Free World from <strong>the</strong> foreign <strong>and</strong> domestic policies imposed<br />
by members of <strong>the</strong> Council, many patriotic Americans have arrived at <strong>the</strong> same conclusion. <strong>The</strong>se<br />
include historians, journalists, academicians, members of Congress, <strong>and</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r civic leaders. We will be<br />
introducing some of <strong>the</strong>ir statements fur<strong>the</strong>r along in this book. More immediately, however, let us<br />
examine <strong>the</strong> origins of <strong>the</strong> Council on Foreign Relations.<br />
Origins of <strong>the</strong> CFR<br />
According to <strong>the</strong> CFR's own history:<br />
<strong>The</strong> origins of <strong>the</strong> Council on Foreign Relations lay in <strong>the</strong> concern of <strong>the</strong> founders at what<br />
<strong>the</strong>y regarded as <strong>the</strong> disappointing conduct of <strong>the</strong> Versailles negotiations ... <strong>and</strong> at <strong>the</strong> shortsighted,<br />
as <strong>the</strong>y saw it, rejection by <strong>the</strong> <strong>United</strong> States of membership in <strong>the</strong> League of<br />
<strong>Nations</strong>. In 1921 <strong>the</strong>y founded <strong>the</strong> Council as a privately funded, nonprofit <strong>and</strong> nonpartisan<br />
organization of individual members.10<br />
Accompanying President Woodrow Wilson to <strong>the</strong> Versailles Peace Conference at <strong>the</strong> end of World War<br />
I were a number of men who would become founders of <strong>the</strong> CFR. Preeminent among <strong>the</strong>se was Wilson's<br />
closest adviser, <strong>the</strong> mysterious Colonel Edward M<strong>and</strong>ell House. So dependent was Wilson upon House<br />
that he referred to him as "my second personality," "my independent self," "my alter ego." Fur<strong>the</strong>r, he<br />
asserted, "His thoughts <strong>and</strong> mine are one."11 According to Wilson biographer George Sylvester<br />
Viereck, "Woodrow Wilson stalks through history on <strong>the</strong> feet of Edward M<strong>and</strong>ell House."12 An<br />
appreciation of this abnormal dependency, what Viereck would call "<strong>The</strong> Strangest Friendship in<br />
History,"13 is essential to underst<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>the</strong> course of American statecraft in <strong>the</strong> ensuing decades.<br />
It was Colonel House who penned <strong>the</strong> first draft of <strong>the</strong> covenant of <strong>the</strong> League of <strong>Nations</strong>.14 He also<br />
prevailed on Wilson to convene <strong>the</strong> group known as <strong>the</strong> "Inquiry," a cabal of American one-worlders<br />
who formulated much of Wilson's "Fourteen Points" peace program. H<strong>and</strong>-picked by House, <strong>the</strong> group<br />
included Walter Lippman, Allen W. Dulles, John Foster Dulles, Christian A. Herter, <strong>and</strong> Norman<br />
Thomas. Director of <strong>the</strong> Inquiry was Dr. Sidney Mezes, House's bro<strong>the</strong>r-in-law.15
