CHAPTER EIGHT
THE ILLUMINATI INFLUENCE ON INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
THE UNITED NATIONS
Jan Tinbergen (from the Netherlands), the winner of the 1969 Nobel Prize for Economics,
has said: “Mankind’s problems can no longer be solved by national governments; what is needed
is a world government.” Although this mentality is becoming more pronounced, getting to that
point has taken many years.
In 1939, Dr. James T. Shotwell organized a group known as the Commission to Study the
Organization of Peace, which was made up of a number of small subcommittees. One of these,
the Subcommittee on International Organization was chaired by Sumner Wells, the Under
Secretary of State, and its purpose was to plan postwar policy. Shotwell and Isaiah Bowman,
members of the subcommittee, were also members of the League of Nations Association, and
had been on Col. House’s staff at the Paris Peace Conference in 1918, where plans for the
League of Nations had been laid out. This established a direct link between the League of
Nations and the United Nations. The subcommittee’s work formed the basis for the Charter of
the United Nations, and was the means by which the Council on Foreign Relations was able to
condition the Congress, and the people of the country to accept the United Nations.
Two weeks after the attack on Pearl Harbor, Cordell Hull, the Secretary of State, sent a letter
to President Roosevelt recommending the establishment of a Presidential Advisory Committee
on Post War Foreign Policy, which actually became a planning group for the United Nations.
Ten of the Fourteen Committee members came from the CFR. Roosevelt’s “Four Freedoms
Speech” planted the seed for the United Nations. A conference held in Washington, D.C between
the representatives of the 26 nations that had banded together against the axis powers, gave
momentum to the movement by issuing the “Declaration of the Twenty-Six United Nations” on
January 1, 1942. In February, 1942, the State Department’s Advisory Committee on Post-War
Foreign Policy secretly worked out more details. One of their reports said: “Its discussions
throughout were founded upon belief in the unqualified victory by the United Nations. It
predicted, as an absolute prerequisite for world peace, the continuing strength of the United
Nations through unbroken cooperation after the war.”
In 1942, Free World, a periodical published by the International Free World Association
(organized in 1941), they stated that their objective was to create the “machinery for a world
government in which the United Nations will serve as a nucleus ... in order to prepare in time the
foundations for a future world order.”
Leading diplomats from the United States, Russia, England, and China, attended preliminary
meetings in October, 1943, at a conference in Moscow. In November, Cordell Hull “secured the
consent of Stalin to establish a general organization ... for the maintenance of international peace
and security,” and in proposing it to Roosevelt, made it appear as though it was an American
project. Among the leading U.S. figures who were involved in the planning of the United
Nations: Alger Hiss, Harry Dexter White, Virginius Frank Coe, Noel Field, Laurance Duggan,
Henry Julian Wadleigh, John Carter Vincent, David Weintraub, Nathan Gregory Silvermaster,
Harold Glasser, Victor Perlo, Irving Kaplan, Solomon Adler, Abraham George Silverman,
William L. Ullman, William H. Taylor, and Dean Acheson. All of these men, were either
communists, or had pro-communist sympathies.
