The CFR was able to work its success magic in practically all segments of the Federal Government and outside of government, as well. At the time of writing this article. Mr. Kraft boasted that the CFR membership, even then, included:
[indent]... the President, the Secretary of State. the Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission, the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, the Board chairmen of three of the country's five largest industrial corporations. two of the four richest insurance companies. and two of the three biggest banks, plus the senior partner; of two of the three leading Wall Street law firms, the publishers of the two biggest news magazines and of the country's most influential newspaper, and the presidents of the Big Three in both universities and foundations, as well as a score of other college presidents and a scattering of top scientists and journalists.
[/indent]
The CFR, from behind the scenes, has dominated this nation for decades. CFR members include top executives and journalists from the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Chicago Daily News, The Christian Science Monitor, Harpers, Look, Time, Life, Newsweek, U.S. News and World Report, The Encyclopedia Brittanica, CBS NBS, MGM, The Motion Picture Association of America; they include directors of the Ford Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Carnegie Endowment Fund; they include Presidents Hoover, Eisenhower, Johnson and Nixon. Secretaries of State Stettinius, Acheson, Dulles, Herter, and Rusk; a fantastic percentage of the President's Cabinet, Under-Secretaries, the Federal Reserve Board, Ambassadors to other countries, Supreme Court Justices and presidential advisors. The average American has never heard of the CFR, yet it is the unseen government of the United States.
Dr. Quigley informs us:
[indent]This group, which in the United States was completely dominated by J. P. Morgan and Company from the 1880's to the 1930's, was cosmopolitan, Angliophile, internationalist. Ivy League, eastern seaboard, high Episcopalian and European-culture conscious. Their connection with ivy League colleges rested on the fact that the large endowments of these institutions required constant consultation with the financiers of Wall Street ...
As late as the 1930's, J. P. Morgan and his associates were the most significant figures in policy making at Harvard, Columbia, and to a lesser extent, Yale. While the Witneys were significant at Yale, the Prudential insurance Company (through Edward D. Duffield) dominated Princeton. ... The chief officials of these universities were beholden to these financial powers and usually owed their jobs to them.

[size="2"]Congressman Nixon "exposed" Alger Hiss[/size][/floatleft]It is a sobering fact that the hidden power structure of international finance has exerted tremendous influence over public opinion in this country through its virtual control of higher education and major segments of mass communications. The human mind is like a computer. No matter how efficient it may be, its reliability is only as great as the information fed into it. If it is possible to control the input of the human mind, then no matter how intelligent a person may be, it is entirely possible to program what he will think. And yes, it is even possible to program people to laugh at the mere mention of the word conspiracy.
Such programming, of course, can work in both directions. While on group has been conditioned not to see any conspiracy at work, another group has been led to believe that Communists have been behind practically everything; a position easily made to look ridiculous. These well-intentioned anti-Communists have been correct in their charge of conspiracy but often incorrect in knowing who to blame.
As far back as 1907, Trotsky was financed by British bankers. By 1917, the major financing for the Communist revolution in Russia was coming through Lord Alfred Milner, the leader of that inner core within the Round Table Groups and the CFR. In America, Jacob Schiff of Kuhn, Loeb and Company gave twenty million dollars to Trotsky. From Germany, millions more came from Max Warburg. The Communist movement, not only in the United States, but around the world always has been financed by the international banking Establishment.

[size="2"]In 1950, when Congressman Nixon exposed
Alger Hiss, he became a national hero
almost overnight. But when Congressman
Reece (above right) began to expose the

exempt foundations, the Establishment
moved mightily against him.[/size][/floatright]Dr. Quigley explains why the Establishment has never greatly worried about the Communist movement in America. He says:
[indent]It must be recognized that the power that these energetic leftwingers exercised was never their own power or Communist power but was ultimately the power of the international financial coterie ...[/indent]
In the 1950s, when the public became aroused over evidence of Communist subversion in the Federal Government, it was a simple expedient for a promising young congressman from California to dramatically expose one Communist agent. The Establishment press gave it extensive coverage, the public was placated, and the obscure congressman became a national hero almost overnight. But when Congressman Reece of Tennessee began to investigate the link-up between Alger Hiss, the Carnegie Endowment, the Morgan Bank, and the interlocking tax-exempt foundations, the Establishment press and the administration moved mightily against him. The pressures were so great that he was forced to abandon his investigation. And no one has dared to try it since.
