A telex comes down to Miscavige, establishing Mission All Clear
(MAC). There are 35 liability cases against the church and many of them name
LRH as a defendant. Miscavige is the head of the unit. The purpose of this
unit was to extricate LRH from all of the lawsuits that had been filed naming
him as the head of the Church. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (29))
Because this is so “confidential and sensitive”, Miscavige forms a
direct comm line with Broeker, by-passing all of his CMO seniors and
the Watchdog Committee. Miscavige then began to systematically
eliminate all of the other members of the All Clear Committee. (Criminal

Peter Green: John Horwich, who was at that time Diana's husband, told us in
a briefing that Ron gave him a job to do which was to align the
networks. Ron did an eval and found that one of the problems was
the various Networks, the G.O., the Sea Org, the Missions, the
LRH Comm Network, the Folo Network, etc., were all at loggerheads
and John Horwich was given the program by LRH to align these. And
John went ahead, did the job and he found out very very quickly
and simply that the G.O. was the culprit and that basically the
G.O. was out of comm with the others and was cutting comm and was
a problem.
He said: "Oh! That's fine, very good. So he went to Mary
Sue and said: "Got it all sorted out, this is what we have
to do: Get the G.O. to align its admin scale with the others etc.
etc., and to his horror he was immediately attacked very
strongly, and he backed off.
In August of '81, there was an Obs mission sent to World Wide
and the real data on the G.O. and its criminal activity was
uncovered. I have data on that from Jeff Shervell who was a G.O.
terminal and is now on a special project for LRH. Somebody
started to blow the whistle and said this is what really goes on.
As a result of this, David Miscavige, Bill Franks, John Horwich
and others (I believe, Norman Starkey, but those 3 for sure)
mounted missions to Saint Hill and to L. A. and went in and
removed Mary Sue Hubbard and Jane Kember from post and took over
the G.O. And John Horwich was with the group that removed Mary
Sue.
And Jane pulled a counter-coup and took the G.O. back. Jane,
of course, was out in Los Angeles at the time, I think, because
of her trial, and they had to go in again. And this time Jane had
sixteen B1 bully boys standing around saying "don't you
dare" and Jane was going to call the security forces, the
rent-a-cop type people with billy clubs to defend her post. Mo
Budlong said, "that is crazy, that is insane, that will
cause nothing but bad press," and so the G.O. capitulated
again, leaving the S.O. to take over the G.O.
Bill Franks then did an evaluation as ED INT on the Guardian's
Office, and that evaluation has not been published but is
probably available. And his conclusion was that Jane Kember had
taken Scientology and turned it 180 degrees around and we had
completely black Scientology. There were 2 Scientologies. LRH
Scientology and Scientology per Jane Kember's interpretations.
... Many of the Assistant Guardians
immediately changed sides and joined the Sea Org, including Jan
Logan who is Guardian staff running the Mission Offices. And many
of these G.O. people immediately joined the Sea Org rather
sheepishly, because there had been a war between the Sea Org and
the G.O. for years and finally the S.O. had won. So they changed
sides.
... The busting of the G.O., as I said, was in August of '81. (Peter
Green debrief, 23.6.1982)

MSH is in close communication with Laurel Sullivan and other staff
of a project called Mission Corporate Category Sort-Out, MCCS. The
project was to create a new corporate structure to protect LRH from criminal
and civil litigation. These staff had knowledge about inurement to LRH and the
conspiracy to cover it up.
The MCCS meetings were recorded on audio tape. Later, the Ninth Circuit
Court reviews the tapes and says they contain evidence of intent to defraud
the IRS and thus they were not protected by the attorney-client privilege.
As Action Chief of CMO Int., David Miscavige sends missions to
investigate the G.O. Their attempts to get information were thwarted by MSH.
MSH cut all of their communications to the G.O., except through her. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (29))
David Miscavige says (in an affidavit later): without MSH’s
knowledge, he sent a mission to GO headquarters in England in April 1981. They
inspected the Legal Bureau under the guise that MSH had authorized it. They
found the GO had mismanaged the Church’s legal affairs and was not following
policy.
They found the GO staff had committed crimes against the US Government and
others. (Criminal

eventually comes to have control over every intellectual property that LRH and
MSH had ever owned or controlled. (Criminal

LRH appoints Bill Franks to the post of ED International and ordered

David Miscavige arranges a meeting with Mary Sue Hubbard,
based on a lie. Hecalls her on the phone and implies that he has comm for her
from LRH.
They get together, but the letter he promised simply did not exist. What
hedid arrive with was a letter he had had written by church attorneys,(Sherman
Lenske & Meade Emory ?) stating erroneously that Mary Sue’s presence as
the controller of the church endangered and implicated LRH in all church
matters. Based on this letter and other conversations that the two of them
had, Mary Sue was eventually persuaded to step down as controller.
Miscavige’s exchanges with MSH were extremely bitter and he brags around
INT for some weeks thereafter about calling her a suppressive bitch and some
other names. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (8, 33))
Twenty CMO missionaires, headed by Vicki Aznaran, were sent to the
St. Hill and Los Angeles Guardian Offices, hoping to simply take over the G.O.
Prior to this takeover, power was distributed between the CMO and the G.O. And
they acted, to some degree, as a check and balance on one another. This was
going to be the elimination of that check and balance and was considered to be
a very important operation.
In Los Angeles, the takeover went smoothly until Jane Kember,
Guardian World Wide, is encountered. She barricaded herself in her office and
refused to be unseated. The missionaires manage to get an appointment with her
and she is intractable. The missionaires then send a telex back to INT and two
more missionaires are sent out to handle the situation.
What was decided is that a fake telex is going to be constructed, allegedly
from LRH, that will order Jane Kember to step down and let the CMO take over
the G.O. This telex is typed on the spot by the missionaires from INT, it is
put in a folder that contains other legitimate LRH telexes and another meeting
is arranged with Jane Kember.
Jane is given the folder of telexes to read, she sees the telex ordering
that she step down and that the CMO be allowed to take over the Guardian’s
Office and that action is done. That is the end of the G.O. and now the CMO
and ultimately Miscavige and Pat and Annie Broeker now run the entire
church. (Criminal

A Reign of Terror begins, followed by the Golden Age of Squirreling, as
follows:
Miscavige established and headed a unit called “Special Project”.
From this position he ran the entirety of Scientology. He staffed it with 15
people who took over the functions of the GO bureaus. Some of the staff were Norman
Starkey, Lyman Spurlock, Terri Gamboa and Vaughn and Stacy
Young. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (22, 26))
These people now ran the Intelligence, PR, and Legal functions previously
run by the GO. The primary focus was on the Mission All Clear, in the
legal division of the GO. The purpose of this unit was to extricate LRH from
all of the lawsuits that had been filed naming him as the head of the Church.
Miscavige was personally charged with extricating LRH from pending
litigation so LRH could come out of hiding.
Later, the Guardian’s Office functions of handling external matters, such
as Intelligence, PR, and Legal are given a new name, the Office of Special
Affairs (OSA). Miscavige now runs all of Scientology, both external and
internal matters. The only people senior to Miscavige are Pat and
Annie Broker, who work directly under LRH. (Criminal

At this time, Alan Walter gets involved (He'd been kicked out
of the Franchise Program in 1978, and had his mission taken away
from him in the Midwest for the second or third time. His first
one was in 1969). Alan went to Franks and told him that many of
the old-time Mission Holders and the power leaders in the field
were inactive. Such as Doran and myself, Ray Kemp, Bent Corydon,
Carl Barney, and Phil Spickler. And Franks was horrified. He
didn't know. He thought we were still on post all busy doing our
things and running our missions. And he said, "I'm so busy
right now with this G.O. clean up, the "Get High On
Yourself" celebrity program, I need some help. But as soon
as that is finished I will definitely put some attention on this
and hold a meeting for the Mission Holders and see if we can get
this lot cleaned up."
... on August 26,
1981 Bill Franks, ED INT, issued Sea Org ED 1789 INT BPI, All
Staff, All Public, from Executive Director International. It was
called MANAGEMENT CHANGES, and in this issue he told about the
management changes and the history, and how the G.O. had turned
around and gone adrift.
He says, unfortunately, over the years the Guardian Office
went adrift. Factually, the phenomenon of being off-policy and
off-source increased over the years. This was not a sudden
change, but was a gradual decay in the G.O. by people who
"knew best" and started formulating their own policy,
sometimes even counter to the Church's best interest etc. etc.
An obvious example might be the criminal cases. Here we have
people representing the Church who had gotten themselves involved
in a fight with the government, when our very first policy is to
maintain friendly relations with the environment. The mistakes
made were simply that this policy was not followed and the
results were predictably negative for the Church. Any and all
criminal actions were done by a handful of individuals. It was
not by the Church. Such actions are, in fact, totally counter to
Church beliefs and policy, and that's the real truth of it.
Franks told me, subsequently, that in doing his evaluation he
found that there were direct orders from LRH not to do anything
criminal. That if you do criminal acts you already admit that you
have failed because any information can be obtained legally.
Again, from Bill Franks to myself, he said that Mary Sue, (he
was out here in Los Angeles), and Mary Sue saw this MANAGEMENT
CHANGES issue in the L.A. Times. It was published by the World
Press. It was run in the L. A. Times. It was run in the Canadian
newspapers. It was featured, I think, four consecutive days by
the BBC in England, and it made big headlines or big world press,
that the Church of Scientology was cleaning up its act and was
admitting that there had been errors and criminality, but now it
was straightening out. Mary Sue didn't see this Sea Org ED, she
read it in the paper and she called Bill Franks and she said,
"Bill, I'm going to get you for this!"(Peter
Green debrief, 23.6.1982)
On
15 September, L. Ron Hubbard wrote an issue HCOB 15 September
1981 called THE CRIMINAL MIND - the timing is interesting. (Peter
Green debrief, 23.6.1982)
Miscavige says that a concern of LRH’s was that his personal affairs be
handled independently of any church activities. The IRS raised concerns
regarding LRH’s relationship to Scientology churches. LRH wanted to have his
personal affairs managed and to put an end to any concerns about his
relationship to any Scientology churches. So, his personal attorneys advised
and were the architects of a for-profit corporation that addressed these
needs. Thus Author Services Incorporated (ASI) was formed to manage the
personal, business and literary affairs of LRH, including his financial and
legal matters. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (37))
In addition to ASI, another for-profit corporation is formed, Bridge
Publications Inc. (BPI)
It publishes and distributes the Scientology Scriptures, including books
and recorded tapes, and manufactures, repairs and distributes E-Meters. It
also publishes and distributes LRH fiction works. New Era Publications
performs the same activities for countries outside of the US.
ASI, BPI, and NEP are all for-profit companies. They pay royalties directly
to LRH and his successors, which includes Religious Technology Center (RTC)
and Church of Spiritual Technology (CST). (Therefore the IRS denies tax-exempt
status to RTC and CST). (Criminal

MSH and 10 aides appeal their conviction of conspiracy. MSH and 10 aides go

The last thing done by Miscavige is a complete corporate restructuring. He
says he does this to ensure a “new GO” could never come about. He says the
GO had become entirely autonomous and corrupt. He says part of the measures
taken to ensure a similar situation could never occur again was the formation
of Religious Technology Center (RTC). (Criminal

In between the 5 August '81 Comm Ev on the G.O. people and the
eval, Franks was very busy. At the same time, he was trying to
handle the 'Get High on Yourself' program, which was a major
celebrity program involving Cathy Lee Crosby and Bob Hope. Cathy
Wasserman was organizing this. And the result was some national
television coverage. (Peter

Attorney Sherman Lenske incorporates Author Services Incorporated
(ASI).
David Miscavige is CEO & Chairman of the Board - Norman
Starkey is President. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (51))
Attorney Sherman Lenske, on behalf of Miscavige, Spurlock and Starkey and
several others, incorporates ASI which becomes the corporate entity
controlling Church of Scientology bank accounts and assets. In fact, the
officers and directors of ASI possessed no authority from any Church of
Scientology corporation to control its bank accounts and property. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (13))
This was earlier called “Special Project”, headed by David Miscavige
and so is ASI. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (29))
At this time ASI is higher on the chain of command than RTC. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (22, 29))
Jesse Prince says that ASI, LRH’s literary agency, is really used as the
clearing house for LRH orders to Church of Scientology International, etc. The
staff of ASI received their orders from LRH and his aide who lived with him,
Pat Broeker. When DM was COB ASI, the staff of ASI commanded and ran the
entire Scientology network. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (27))
From 1982 to 1986 LRH would dictate his orders into a dictaphone. Pat and
Annie Broeker would take the tape to Susie Bennick at Gilman Hot
Springs, Ca. She would issue despatches to various executives at ASI, RTC,
CSI, CST and CSC. David Miscavige oversaw the transcribing operation
and enforced compliance to LRH orders. While Miscavige was COB ASI the
staff of ASI ran the entire Scientology network. ASI had complete control
over the management of all of Scientology. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (27,
29))
DM makes the following ASI appointments:
- Terri Gamboa, Executive Director
- Norman Starkey, Legal Affairs Director
- Lyman Spurlock, Corporate Affairs Director
- Vaughn Young, Public Affairs Director
- Stacy Young, Organizing Officer
Vicki Aznaran says that ASI was incorporated to be the funnel
through which profits from Scientology Churches were channeled to LRH.
Stacy Young says that she and all ASI staff were instructed that
making large amounts of money for LRH was an integral part of running
Scientology.
LRH’s (perhaps Broeker’s?) communications to ASI staff made it clear
that he felt justified in taking as much money out of the Church as Miscavige
& ASI staff could get away with. Miscavige’s success or failure was
based on how much money he could make for LRH, whether it came from the Church
or other sources.
Accordingly, Miscavige made sure as much money as possible was taken from
Church accounts. Treasury Secretary, Fran Harris, thought up “labels”
which were attached to huge lump sums, which Miscavige then ordered
transferred from non profit Church accounts, into ASI accounts every week.
These labels were designed to conceal from the IRS the true nature of the
transfers.
Miscavige made Lyman Spurlock responsible for working out the legal
details of these transfers. Stacy Young, as Org Officer, often had to calm
Lyman down after he had been ordered to legitimize some of Fran Harris’
money-making ideas. Lyman said he had serious disagreements with Fran about
the legality of some of her schemes. Miscavige would always tell Lyman to “make
it legal”.
The line was that Pat Broeker would tell David Miscavige to
bring hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars for LRH. Miscavige would
bring the money in a briefcase to Las Vegas. Pat would meet him there and then
take the briefcase of money back to LRH. (Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (29))
Peter Green: And somewhere in November of '81, Franks kept his promise and
organized the first Mission Holders Meeting at Flag. This
meeting, which he and Alan Walter had dreamed up to get into comm
with, and connect up, the Mission Holders, and the Mission
Holders who had been kicked out and the ones who were no longer
active, was part of the revitalization program and he wanted to
brief them.
And Gordon Cook, who was the new Controller, who was now
wearing Mary Sue's hat as Controller, was there and Jens Borgward
from the CMO was there. And the first ARC break came when the
Mission Holders arrived and the meeting started. Diana Hubbard
was there, and Bill Franks was absent. He'd called the meeting
and he wasn't there. When asked what was happening we were told
that he had been called to Int for some kind of consultation or
whatever and was handling an ethics cycle on the 2D.
Jens Borgward conducted the meeting and Ray and Pam Kemp had
been invited. When they got there, the story of what had happened
to them in 1975 on the theft of their Mission and their illegal
Comm Ev and their expulsion and so forth, came out. Admissions
were made that the G.O. had gone off-policy and, at that point,
Jens Borgward turned to Gordon Cook and said, "Gordon, I
think you should handle this cycle." The Kemps had been
declared public enemies of Scientology because they were suing
the Church and their lawsuit was coming up at that time.
So Gordon Cook arranged a Board of Investigation, a Board of
Review, and the findings were published as Sea Organization Flag
Conditions Order 6453-1 21st of November 1981 Broad Public Issue,
titled BOARD OF REVIEW FINDINGS - RAY & PAM KEMP. In this, it
gave the background, and then it found that their whole handling
had been totally off-policy, out-ethics.
They had been denied standard Scientology Justice and they
were not, in fact, SPs, even though they had filed a suit with
the Church and that the only reason for the suit had been because
all other lines of justice within the Church had been blocked to
them. And even the lawsuit was an attempt to get into
communication. So, they were exonerated and were restored to good
standing by this issue.
The recommendations in that 6453-1 included a special Board of
Review to be inaugurated for a limited period of time,
specifically to encourage and hear current Scientology civil
litigants' grievances against the Church and seek to resolve
these on standard internal lines wherever possible. This special
Board would not replace any standard justice recourse actions,
but would handle those incorrectly handled by past members of the
Guardians Office or other units acting on policies not those of
the Founder. The Chairman was Ron Anderson, Secretary Nancy Kass,
and Member Nick Fine for Gordon D. Cook, Acting Controller.
This created a tremendous resurgence of hope in Scientology,
and various litigants in the Field were dropping their suits,
getting into communication. The Kemps were telling people:
"Look, you can get justice in Scientology now, even with us.
We were expelled and declared and then suing. There is a sanity.
There has been a severe reality adjustment. There is a reform
movement within the Church and Scientology is getting back its
ethics and getting back onto LRH instead of Jane Kember."
This resulted in myself wanting to connect up, Carl Barney
wanting to connect up, and it led to the establishment of the
second Mission Holders Meeting.
Also at that first meeting, not only did Ray Kemp get restored
to good standing and get settlement on his mission, but Bent Corydon, who had been fighting since 1977, was awarded the
Riverside Mission back. There was a Board of Investigation there
and he was given back the Riverside Mission totally and now is
currently running it.
Now, interesting data. Right after that Mission Holders
Meeting, Bill Franks watched Vicki Aznaran, CMO, writing an
entheta report on this "terrible" Mission Holders
Meeting that was being held at Flag. It was a scurrilous report,
full of generalities. Bill Franks read it over her shoulders as
she was typing it, and said: "Vicki, what the hell is this?
You know this is not true, you were not even there." She
went out of comm with him.
So the first attack on the Mission Holders Meeting and this
reform, came, as far as we can determine, from Vicki Aznaran in
the CMO. She is now running and clearing up the US. G.O. She is
in Sea Org, CMO running the G.O. at this time. (Peter
Green debrief, 23.6.1982)
It starts with the re-opening of a comm line from LRH to and
from CMO INT and others in late 1981 after a period of almost two
years of little to no comm from (or to) LRH (from Feb '80 to Sept
'81). Unfortunately, although the comm line was re-opened in late
'81, it was a very limited comm line in that all communications
travelled through Annie Broeker, Pat Broeker to David Miscavige
and back up in reverse order. Pat and Annie were living with LRH
and David Miscavige was living primarily at CMO INT. Other than
Pat and Annie, no one, including Miscavige, knew of LRH's
location. Miscavige would receive a phone call from Pat Broeker
and then would go to a restaurant or parking lot and meet Pat
Broeker to pass the mail. Thus, there was no way for any comm to
get to LRH without it going through those persons.
I was one of four people who originally received and sent comm
via that line in Sept/Oct '81, these comms from LRH and to LRH
were technical.
In late '81 (about November), LRH sent down orders to CMO INT
to collect up and send him data on the state of the orgs and Scn
internationally. The data he asked for was very comprehensive and
took about two weeks for the FB (Flag Bureaux) to collect and
send to CMO INT for relay to LRH! Then an evolution began at CMO
INT of rewriting/retyping all these reports to omit and add data
so as to make things appear to be much better than was the actual
truth. I was horrified that this was being done and the extent to
which it was being done and particularly at the intention to
deceive LRH into thinking that things in Scn were much better
than they were. I first discovered this when one of the reports
that I had written to LRH came back to me to sign after having
been re-written. I then found out that all three of the reports I
had written had been or were being re-written so as to grossly
falsify them. I had carbons of the originals of these reports and
began to argue with those concerned about the re-writing of these
reports on the grounds that I insisted that LRH should be truly
informed of the actual conditions existing in Scn
internationally.
At the same time as this, I received the order from LRH to sec
check Pat Broeker on certain subjects and did so (meeting Pat
Broeker secretly at motels). I brought the matter of the
falsification of the Scn reports to LRH to Pat Broeker's and
David Miscavige's attention, asking them to intercede as they had
seniority in the CMO. At first, both seemed reticent to do
anything about it, then assured me they would handle it after Pat
had consulted with Annie Broeker. Pat later spoke to me about the
"undesirability of putting upsetting news on LRH's lines,
but when I didn't agree with the falsification of these reports,
he again assured me they would be handled. Pat's sec check and
some other auditing was completed and I wrote a summary report to
LRH. This report was later retyped in Pat's favour. The attempted
falsification of the international reports on Scn to LRH were
used as the reason (or one of the major reasons) for the removal
of Gale Irwin by David Miscavige and Pat and Annie Broeker - from
the post of CO CMO INT. Although I was assured at the time by
Miscavige and Broeker that the correct reports would be forwarded
to LRH, I later learned that that wasn't done. And, even later
realized that Miscavige and Broeker had only used the.... of the
falsification of the reports as an explanation and convenience to
get rid of Gale Irwin as CO CMO INT. (Some months earlier,
Miscavige and Broeker had busted Dede Voegeding as CO CMO INT for
"security reasons" which later turned out to be because
she was considered a threat to their authority.) Although these
reports to LRH were falsified, it was usualy quite some time
before I discovered the fact - partly due to the time before a
reply came back and partly due to the practice at that time of
simply passing on the LRH reply and keeping what went up in files
(so unless one got access to and went into these files one
wouldn't see what went up, just what came down). (David
Mayo, 8.12.83)

David Mayo receives many messages from LRH over the next eight months.
Amongst other things, LRH suggested that Mayo develop a Happiness Rundown, which Mayo did. When the rundown and course was complete, auditors and C/Ses
from around the world came to ASHO where Mayo personally taught the course and interneship.

According to Miscavige, LRH had no knowledge of MSH resignation and the disbanding of the GO until 5 months later.
(Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (33)) This would place his being
informed in December. DM says LRH had two reactions:
- He felt satisfaction that ethical Scientologists had shown initiative and
acted.
- On the other hand, the actions of the GO and Mission Holders, and the inaction of some of the ecclesiastical staff caused him great concern about
the future of the religion and how it would accomplish its mission in his absence when he was no longer alive in body.
DM says he was not involved in the corporate restructuring. He says LRH insisted on handling his own affairs with regard to his relationship with
the religion as its Founder. As the source of the religion’s Scriptures,
LRH held the intellectual property rights of Dianetics and Scientology, through the ownership of both the religious trademarks and the copyrights to the
Scripture. To accomplish his goal in seeing to the future of the religion he founded, LRH employed his own attorneys to be the architects of his estate
planning. It was under these circumstances that two brand new churches came into being. (RTC & CST)
Having learned of GO corruption and having learned that several responsible persons in ecclesiastical management had failed to act, LRH determined that
the future of the religion could not depend on a management body alone. To ensure he could maintain the standard and orthodox practice of the religion,
LRH had registered all of the Dianetics and Scientology trademarks. While ecclesiastical means would most often suffice to see to orthodoxy,
trademarks also provided a legal means to prevent unorthodox use.
Over the years, many individuals had attempted to create splinter churches of Scientology, using a perverted version of the subject. Through the legal
power of the trademarks, such offshoots could be prevented or at least prevented from misleading people by representing themselves as orthodox
Scientology. LRH decided to donate the trademarks to the religion but he insisted that any church to whom he donated them be entirely independent of
any management body involved in the day-to-day affairs of ministering to the religion and its parishioners. RTC was created for this reason – to receive
the Dianetics and Scientology trademarks and thus be responsible only for orthodoxy.
LRH also wanted to ensure his copyrights to the extensive library of Scientology Scripture would be used for the benefit of the religion, and not
for the benefit of any one person or persons. And again, while ecclesiastical means would usually be all that was needed to maintain
orthodoxy, LRH had always employed the copyright laws as a means to legally enforce his rights to prevent alteration of his materials by others.
Also, LRH had often spoken of archiving the Scriptures of Scientology in the event of a catastrophe. Harking back to the concern for the future of the
religion and in light of the events of the early 1980s, LRH furthered reasoned that yet another independent church body should receive his
copyrights.
Even though RTC would be the recipient of his trademarks, and charged only with the orthodox application of the religion, LRH felt that even those
duties could distract them from the ultimate preservation of the religion through archiving its materials in indestructible form.
In an abundance of caution, should any church organization be corrupted again, he determined that no church should hold both the trademarks and the
copyrights. Thus, to receive his copyrights, Church of Spiritual Technology was formed. CST’s function is purely archival in nature. CST preserves the
written Scripture on stainless steel plates, the recorded word on nickel plated recordings, and places all of it in titanium containers stored in
vaults constructed to withstand nuclear explosions or other cataclysmic events.
CST also stands as the ultimate safeguard of the Scientology religion should the entire religion, even RTC, ever deviate from the pure Scientology
religious teachings.
The GO had already demonstrated the danger of corrupt officials. While powers of persuasion and internal justice procedures had corrected the GO
problem, this safeguard was considered insufficient should a similar problem recur in the future. LRH reasoned that involvement in day-to-day affairs was
the only way any individual could ever be seduced into unethical activity.
Hence, LRH suggested that these new church corporations should have Trustees. As Trustees, they we would have no authority in the
conduct of corporate affairs, with neither the ability to give orders or directions,
nor perform any corporate activities whatsoever. Their only authority would be to appoint or remove directors.
Since they would not be involved in corporate affairs it was expected they would not become involved in any potential corporate malfeasance or
dereliction of corporate duties and bylaws. Since there would be several Trustees, no individual Trustee could subvert the corporate structure or
Board of Directors by moving themselves into a position as a Director. As a result, there would be layers of safeguards ensuring corporate integrity,
while also providing a mechanism to ensure no church could ever again be corrupted without a mechanism for rectifying the problem.
The restructuring of other churches of Scientology was not part of LRH’s estate plan, although it evolved out of the same desire to ensure the future
of the religion, not just following the death of its Founder, but for all time.
RTC did not come out of Church of Scientology California, but was a brand new organization, established precisely because the role it is charged with
performing did not exist in the religion and the religion almost collapsed because no church performed that function.

Bill Franks holds a Mission Holders conference to address expansion plans for the religion.
(Criminal
Time Track: Issue III, (37))
Not at all. The intent was to recover senior Scio's that had left the CofS
due to the abusive and criminal GO and SO acts.
Franks contacted me on my yacht, and asked for my help to recover these
people.
I was also off lines and out of Scio., at the time running a $billion network
of International companies.
I told him that no-one was interested in coming back unless the abuses were
remedied. ie: The RPF, the brutal working conditions, the sleep deprivation,
the poor feeding of staff, the price increases, the returning of stolen
property, the admittance to the abuses, the elimination of kangaroo court
ethics. etc.
Franks agreed to correct this.
I made 4 phone calls which resulted in 250 people coming to Flag from all over
the world.
There was no mutiny....the was just an honest attempt to clean things up and
restore trust.
What eventuated was a power play between Miscavige, Starkey the CMO and Bill
Franks and the rest of the SO.
Miscavige and Co invented the mutiny rumor.
In my estimation DM and Co committed the destruction of Scio by the use of
that false assignment.
By destroying and going back on the agreed upon corrections and thus betraying
what was promised, 55,000 Scio's walked out world wide. Almost simultaneously.

Not only did DM and Co. destroy a powerful network, they destroyed the lines

This also destroyed the publics ability to get trained on basics.

According to Miscavige, this turned into a “mutiny meeting” by some of
these Mission Holders. The Mission Holders were protesting new demands for more money and more control being exerted over them. With all of the shakeups and
LRH being unable to appear the Mission Holders were threatening to revolt.

Not true. The imprisonment of Franks during the Mission Holder meetings had
left us with a definite mistrust of DM and the CMO. (correction

(Criminal

True. You must understand the people at the Mission Holder meetings were in
fact mostly Class VI's, Class VIII's and the highest OT levels, almost all
opinion leaders. They had built the majority Scio.
DM and the CMO brought about the schism by using abusive and criminal tactics.
They have continued to employ those abusive and criminal tactic to this very
day.....consequently not only us who at that time in 1981 could see what this
behavior would lead to, now the rest of the world is privy to DM's and Co's
criminal and abusive tactics.
Now the powers in the world are seeking to stop the Scio abuses and
criminality. (correction of Alan Walters in an E-Mail on a.c.t

Let us go back to the famous meeting that took place at Flag
at the end of 1981.
That meeting took some days and it was hot and heavy. In that
meeting, forty-plus stat-producing mission holders grouped
together in a room at Flag and placed Flag management in a lower
condition. They told the management that if the situation was not
corrected there were going to be splinter groups. They explained
that there was a very very large disconnected, ARCx field out
there. They explained that the suits against the Church were the
Church's failure to Handle. This enturbulated some of the Flag
management and rightly so. BECAUSE IT WAS A WRONG CONDITION AND
INDICATION. The VISIBLE Flag management was not in a lower
condition according to the data they had. Neither were the
mission holders in a lower condition. In fact, neither party was
at fault -- although both thought that the other was.
In spite of the enturbulation caused to Flag management from
being assigned a wrong condition, the two groups started to comm
and events started to occur to clean up the problems. The mission
holders and other leaders were allowed to set up an office in
FOLO. They (MHs) heard the cases of hundreds of Scientologists
who were inactive, off lines, ARCx, sitting for years in a
mis-assigned condition, etc. These people were contacted through
public meetings held by the leaders. The meetings were hot and
heavy because each of the attending persons was loaded with their
own personal BPC from their own lost bridge. Through the
meetings, lines were established, and each person was sent to the
FOLO office so that the time and care needed for a personalized
handle could be given, and the people gotten back on the bridge.
These meetings were open to anyone and everyone no matter how
long they had been out of the Church and no matter what they had
done. Needless to say, the meetings were absolutely packed with
highly trained OTs and ex-staff who were all inactive in PT. Over
20 inactive Class 8's were rehabbed the first month. The second
major stat of these meetings was that people suing the C of S
were contacted by the leaders of the meetings and other
volunteers... The list was given to the Mission holders -- so
obviously there was some co-operation going on, as well as
permission to set up office in FOLO. It was discovered that each
of these suits boiled down to non-delivery of the bridge.
In other words, someone paid money but left at the end of the
service in an ARCx about the delivery. It was found that each of
these persons cleaned up easily on two way comm and proper
indications and otherwise standard Tech and that they dropped the
suit. Over 70 suits were contacted.
In these meetings a lot of charge came off. Some people came
out of curiosity and got charged because they hadn't known about
the upsets that existed. The huge majority of tone, however, was
of relief, great relief, because one could say anything, be
acked, listened to without eval. The person then was given a line
to handle their grievance -- that line was helpful, not
evaluative and interested only in getting them back on the
bridge. That line was willing to take the time and space to do
what was needed to be done (at no money charge) and that line was
not willing to waste people nor were they desirous of it. That
line also had the beginnings of authority to publicly indicate
past slanders of persons by wrong conditions assignments, an
action necessary to fully blow the charge for the person and the
group. Also, these mission holders were highly trained people,
thus able to as-is what would look to a lower-trained person like
only "natter". Rather than "natter",
an unbiased, trained person finds out lists, wrong whys, m/whs of
nothing, wrong condition assignment, ARCxs on not-thereness, BPC,
etc., etc. With only the use of "all ARCxs stem from
MW/Hs" and not all the Tech on MW/H and ARCx, an
untrained person would not, of course, be able to bring all
persons in trouble to an as-is-ness.
So even without doing a lot of auditing on the inactive
Scientologists, these meetings were producing a phenomenon in the
field -- a few thousand members worldwide turned up in a few
short weeks with many more on the way as the word got out. Also,
the people threatening to splinter joined to help. Thus, a great
resurgence of hope that the Church would stay in one piece took
place. (Dave Tops Debrief)
Church of Scientology of Winnipeg, Canada founded. (CofS)
On December 6 of 1981, a second Mission Holders Meeting was
convened. It was set up by SMI, Scientology Missions International, and I have in front of me an issue dated 14th of
November 1981. It is a C.S.W. from Tina Meyers, who was Deputy
SMI Liaison Flag to the SMI Officer Int Jan Logan, and it's
called Operation Connection Number 3. This was issued as an SMI
Project Order, issued to SMI Int, SMI Liaison Flag, info to the
Office of the Controller, to the CMO Clearwater, to the CMO Int
and to the Watch Dog Committee. It set out what the purpose of
the meeting was: the project information, the call-in campaign,
the operating targets, the vital targets, the primary targets,
and it was to continue cleaning up the ARC broken field and get
the Mission Holders active and connected up and carry on the good
work that was done in the first Mission Holders Meeting.
Doran and I were not present on the first day. We were
refusing to go to that meeting. But we received calls from Milt Wolf, from
Bent Corydon, from Peter Scupholm, various other
Mission Holders, and Carl Barney, who had had 5 Missions stolen
from him and a total of 4 million dollars. And since Ray Kemp had
gotten justice, and Bent Corydon had gotten justice, and Gordon
Cook had talked to Carl and promised that he would have a
resolution of his situation, would have justice, Carl persuaded
me to go down there.
So we went, with Flag paying our expenses. It turns out that
they billed G.O. W.W. for our air fares and expenses, feeling
that that was just, since they were the ones who had done us in.
At that meeting it came out that Bill Franks who had convened
the first meeting and hadn't been allowed to attend, had gone off
to Int and had been placed under guard, 24 hours a day and had
had his telephone bugged. And when this came out there was a
furor because he had gone to get handling for an out-2D
situation. And it turns out that the guy who was conducting the
Mission Holder's meeting in Bill's absence had now married Bill
Franks' wife, Jeannie.
I do not know the rights and wrongs of this and who had the
out-2D. Later charges were brought against Bill Franks for out-2D
with Cathy Wasserman, whom he'd been working with on the
"Get High On Yourself" program.
But there was an outrage on the part of the assembled Mission
Holders, field staff members and SMI personnel over the fact that
Bill Franks was the ED, wearing Ron's hat. And who had Authority
to place the Senior Management Terminal of the Church under
surveillance bug his telephone and place him under restraint? Who
in fact had the power to Comm Ev him or to put his ethics in? It
wasn't that we objected to his ethics being put in. We wanted to
know the command line. There was no policy extant at the time
that placed the CMO as his seniors or the Watch Dog Committee as
his seniors. We couldn't find out who was in the Watch Dog
Committee.
Now, we were protesting that we were being run by an anonymous
council. A generality like the G.O. and now this Watch Dog
Committee. Who are they? What are they? What do they do? What's
their function? What's their purpose? What's their policy. What
is the scope of their orders? What issue from LRH has given them
any power and authority. We wanted answers to all these
questions.
We put Bill Franks on the spot and asked him to explain and he
couldn't answer. We asked, "Is this Policy Letter that
appoints you ED Int for life, in fact true, or are you just a
figure-head. Who does these things? And he pointed to Annie Trascott, who was the representative to CMO INT and the WDC and
said, "Ask HER." She squirmed & wriggled and didn't
come clean and wouldn't tell us and complained that she was under
attack.
What then happened was that Brian McKee, after a while, stood
up and said, "I'm tired of all this. I'm tired of the
depredations inflicted on us all by the G.O. These hidden data
lines, hidden control lines. I am an OT and as far as I am
concerned, this group of youngsters who are the messengers should
be Bill Franks' juniors. They are Ron's messengers. In the
absence of the founder, Bill Franks is wearing Ron's hat and
therefore Ron's messengers should be Bill Franks' messengers and
I am assigning them now a condition of confusion."
And he wrote out a condition of confusion on them and gave
them 30 days to work through the condition and get upgraded by
the Executive Director International. At that point, he passed it
around and about 30 of us signed it including myself and Doran,
most of the Mission Holders who were there and some Sea Org crew
such as Frank McCall, David Meyers and Tina Meyers.
And so, the Mission Holders Meeting was supposed to have been
Friday night, Saturday and Sunday and then go home. In fact, I
think it lasted to the following Thursday because so much data
was coming out, so much false data was being stripped. We had
something like 200 people who'd come in from all over- from San
Francisco, from Dallas, from Austin, from Connecticut, from L.A.,
i.e., org people, Sea Org people, G.O. people, mission staff and
so forth. They begin to tell their stories.
Many of them were horror stories of being ripped-off, raped
and black-mailed, or removed from post when they had upstat
conditions. Or being given false ethics trips, black P.R. and so
forth. And it was, in effect, running out the group engram. It
was not, as was alleged, a squirrel-group engram-running. It was
simply that the false data was falling away and the truth was
emerging.
And people were blowing charge and they were coming back to
the truth. For example, one guy will stand up and start telling
what had happened to him in D.C. and another one will say,
"Well I have some other data on that", and he tells his
side of it. Somebody else will say, "I've got something to
contribute here because this was what was happening. I, at the
time, was on such and such post, I got orders to do so and so,
and that was why you got done in because the order came from Bla
Bla." Then Blah Blah would have to stand up and tell his
side of it.
And it was a connecting up of people, many of them whom were
OTs and NOTs people, and they weren't taking any bull shit and
they were telling the truth and charge was blowing and truth was
coming in. False data was being just blown to pieces and it was
an incredible connecting up of people as a true group wanting to
connect up with LRH.
And the one thing they were sure of was that LRH was IT and
that most of these things were not LRH. They were perversions and
corruptions on LRH and they had a feeling they could get
Scientology back and get LRH back into Scientology.
And Sue Anderson, who was a PRO, stood up and cried and told
us that Ron had not been on the lines and that her comm from him
was being corrupted. She produced evidence of advices from LRH
which had been censored, where paragraphs had been cut out, and
where forgeries had been sent to her. So she thought he was on
the line and he wasn't on the line.
And it was just one incredible series of blowdowns of learning
the truth. So a demand was made that the CMO and the Watch Dog
Committee should appear in front of this meeting and contribute
their side of things and explain their relationships. What were
their orders. What policy established them. What gave them the
right to arrest and bug the telephone of the Executive Director
International? Who were these people? Who were the Watchdog
Committee and what powers do they have and so forth?
So they flew in, and there was David Miscavige, Marc Yager,
Norman Starkey, John Horwich came in, and David Mayo, too. When
they finally arrived, it was a fiasco.
At Alan Walter's request, both of the entire Mission Holders
Meetings were videotaped to protect us so we wouldn't be
misquoted. Also because verbal orders were being given, and if it
is not written, it's not true.
For example, on the subject of the prices, somebody asked
Peter Crundall of the Westwood Mission to, "Ask Bill Franks
what about the prices." And Bill's reply was, "Well you
have to charge enough to be a viable mission. But if you price
yourself out of the market you will go bankrupt, so why don't you
follow LRH policy in Volume 3 and work out the price. But
remember, there is a second policy, which is you must not
undercut your local Org. So get together with the C.O.s of ASHO
and L.A. Org and work out a price for the area."
This, of course, was a verbal order, so we wanted things like
this recorded. So it was actually written, it was written on a
video tape. My understanding is that these tapes were taken by
CMO Int and these are what were used to declare us and to allege
a conspiracy to take over the Church and deny it to fully
constituted management etc. So they were a double-edged sword.
One of the examples of what had happened was the Assistant
Guardian from Austin Org stood up and told a horror story of how
he had been recruited into the G.O. He had been a tech C/S and he
said, "When I was trained in the G.O., my B1 hat pack was
3-1/2 inches thick and when we stripped out all the false orders
and false tech, we were left with a half-inch that was LRH."
He said, "Let me tell you what happened when I first joined
the G.O. because I decided that I was a tech C/S and was doing
well in the Org but I wanted to play a bigger game and run the
3rd dynamic engram instead of just one person at a time:
I went through an apprenticeship in Los Angeles and Jimmy
Mulligan said, "What we have to do is get the goods on this
guy, he's an enemy of Scientology. He's PTS and he's gonna attack
the Church, so I want you to go through his folder and find out
what you can."
So I did, wearing my tech hat, and I looked at it. Well, the
fellow's in ethics trouble, so prior to that there must be some
out-tech and so forth and sure enough I found it. There was the
messed-up ethics cycle and prior to that there was a list that
was wrong and I was very elated and I went to Jimmy and I said,
"Hey I've got it, look what happened, the guy's threatening
to sue the Church and prior to that there was this mishandled
ethics which was gross and prior to this was a fuck-up in his
auditing and here is the wrong C/S and how we correct it."
And Jimmy said, "Wait a minute, hold it everybody, hold
it guys. Hey, we got a 'techie' in our midst." I wondered
what he was talking about. "Yeah, we got a techie," and
he said, "look son, that's not what we want." And for
the next couple of hours I was degraded for being a 'techie' and
I was told, "What you do is you go through the folder and I
don't give a damn about the tech, I want the dirt, the witholds.
I want the crimes we can use against him."
I went into degradation. And also in the next 2 hours I was
blackened for believing that I could exteriorize. Anybody in the
G.O. who thought that they could exteriorize in the G.O. was
considered theetie weetie. Anybody who believed that there was
such things as perception, that you could look down the hall and
see into another, was completely discouraged-- "In the G.O.
we're not interested in that, we're interested in facts, in
documentation, in affidavits." From there on, that was the
last time I made case gain.
And then Joe Leasa stood up and he started telling some of his
withholds and his activities in the G.O. and Alan Hubbert got up
and said, "In my 7 years in the G.O. I am proud to say that
I never once committed any criminal acts."
And immediately, Darby Simpson said, "Well you did with
me, on that cycle you handled," and he admitted,
"that's true, well I guess that was illegal." And Renee
Duke got up and said, "you really were illegal with.... and
did this, and that was criminal." And he admitted to that,
and then we tried to pull Alan Hubbert's withholds, but he
wouldn't come clean and the room knew that this guy was squirming
and witholding.
This second meeting consisted of about 5 days of grief, tears
of people crying, of hearing other people's horror stories. Doran
told the story of Lori's death. I told the story of the attacks
on us at Saint Hill after we went there to disseminate NOTS and
were the first NOTS completions ever to promote the subject in
England.
Jan Logan came in and Doran bopped her and decked her with a
right cross which brought in a lot of good indicators, and
finally Jan Logan stood up and told the truth about what had
happened in England and how Jane Kember had spent 4 hours
explaining to Jan (when we were doing the data eval) that Peter
Green was S.P. and one of the biggest S.P.s in Scientology. And
Doreen Casey contributed that Jane had black PR'd me in 1968.
Other people who had heard stories began to contribute their
data, and it turned out in the testimony that Jane Kember had
falsely attested to OT III in '68, and had turned sour. All sorts
of truths were coming out. Charge was being blown and the results
of this meeting were some incredible products.
We revitalized some 30 Class VIIIs and about 60 Class VIs and
these people were all wanting to get back into business. And Bill
Franks was taking the stops off. He said, "Whatever you want
to do, go ahead and do it, provided it is LRH. Don't follow any
illegal orders. Ignore BPLs. Ignore Guardian Orders. But if it's
on policy and you've wanted to do it, then for God's sake, do it.
And they eliminated the multiple mission charters and things like
this. If you wanted to open other missions, then open other
missions, and there was a huge expansion and revitalization mood
and a huge renaissance feeling.
Artie Maren was there and was extremely excited and was going
to put out a press release based upon what was happening and make
the press right. Basically, his idea was that Scientology had
gotten into the hands of a very few criminals per the issue
Management Changes and that the members of the Church had now
thrown out their suppressive management, meaning the old G.O.,
and were cleaning up their act. The press release, in effect,
would say the 4th estate has done it's job. It has drawn our
attention to these things. The FBI has done it's job. It has
arrested the criminals, the courts have found them guilty.
They're going to jail. Members of the Church never did condone
these actions and have now re-aligned themselves to L. Ron
Hubbard. And now there's a new management and a new mood and a
renaissance within our Church.
And this way would make the press right for the past entheta,
but now they could write good things about us and this was the
whole mood. Now we're going to expand and we're going to get back
to Ron.
Meantime, reports are flying from Los Angeles to CMO and from
other people at Flag up to CMO that there is a revolution and a
mutiny going on. Vicki Aznaran's writing reports, people are
sending telexes to their staff saying to return immediately, do
not support this mutiny - what mutiny? Come back to base.
Joe Leasa was ordered back to U.S. GO. He stood up and he
said, "If you're looking for a plant in this meeting, don't
look any further. I'm it. I was sent out here to find out what
you guys are doing and to infiltrate this meeting." And he
began to come up with his withholds. He said that when he was
ordered back to Los Angeles he sent them a message saying,
"No, you come here, this is where Scientology is, we have
LRH in our midst and you come and join us."
When he got back he was declared type III and he was put
through an Ethics trip. Basically, what was happening was that
the false reports were being erased and blown. The 3rd dynamic
engram was just disappearing as people reconnected to Ron and
eachother and there was a tremendous amount of tears and people
crying as they heard horror stories, it was on the 3rd flow. I
mean I would hear what had happened to you and I'd choke up over
your experience and vice-versa, and it formed, temporarily, a
true group.
Then the CMO came in, having been thoroughly inadequately
briefed, thinking they were coming to quell a mutiny. When they
arrived, David Mayo first began to give a tech briefing and he
was told, "David, that's not what we want, we want to get in
comm with you guys." And then Norman Starkey stood up and
began to handle us by reading What is Greatness - it was totally
out of R, you know- it was like you've got to forgive the people
you're mad at.
Then finally I stood up and said, "Gentlemen, can I be
your spokesman for a few minutes?" The group said
"Yea". And I said, "Gentlemen, you're inadequately
briefed, you've come here with totally a wrong idea of what's
been happening for the last 5 days. This is not a mutiny. We have
shed tears. We have bled together. We've suffered together and we
have reconnected and we want to connect with you. We want to get
our hats on. We want your hats straight. We want Bill Franks'
hat. We want Gordon Cook's hat. We want our own hats back.
"And I suggest that right now we're out of ARC and out of
comm because you're talking to a picture of something that isn't
true and that we adjourn this meeting while you get a briefing
and then we'll meet tomorrow."
So I sent everybody to bed and they went off and got a
briefing. That night, John Horwich sat with about 10 Mission
Holders, Marty Samuels, Bent Corydon, John Woodruff, myself and
so on, and gave us the whole history of what had gone on in the
G.O., including removing Mary Sue, Alan Walter and Dean Stokes.
Others sat and gave a briefing to Miscavige and those guys.
And the next day we got together and there was an apparent EP
to the meeting of "OK you guys, we understand you've got
your hats back, you can do your job and blah blah blah." At
that point, Bill Franks subsequently told me, "Right then I
knew I was dead."
And we went back to our various missions and areas and we were
told by Gordon Cook and by Bill Franks to continue these
meetings. To set up these meetings in the field and let people
discharge their charge and do what we'd done at Flag.
So Peter Crundall set up a meeting in the Westwood Mission and
Helen Geltman set up one in New York. Someone else set one up in
Columbus, Ohio and this type of meeting was held, where the fact
was given that there've been two Scientologies. There's been LRH
Scientology and there's been this squirrel black Scientology that
has come out of the G.O. And that this is false data, and its
lies and its criminality and people were beginning to blow their
charge and do basically what we'd done at Flag and there was a
whole new spirit and the result was that they did set up this
permanent board of review.
Now one thing I should mention. At the first Mission Holders
meeting the whole subject of the Bureau 1 files had come up: The
lies about the Kemps in the B1 Files, the black PR against most
senior Scientologists in the B1 files. Gordon Cook and Jens
Borgward said, "I don't see any reason why they should even
exist, these were to handle enemies of Scientology. They were
never to be dossiers on Scientologists." And so Gordon and
the others said, "You can go in and see your B1 file and
burn the damn thing. There's no reason to have them." And so
the B1 files were opened.
So I came back to Los Angeles and Doran and I were ready to go
out and connect up and start a Mission. I arranged seminars. I
arranged lectures. I arranged to go and do a speaking tour all
across the country at new missions. There was a whole expansion
movement. There was postulates of opening up. Peter Scupholme was
gonna open up 13 new missions. Peter Crundall was going to open
up two more missions in L.A. and so on. An incredible
revitalization!
So I came back here and this was just before Xmas and I went
into the G.O. and asked to see my B1 file and I was told that I
couldn't see it. And I contacted Flag and they said somebody's
put a stop on it. Allegedly, the stop was from the Watch Dog
Committee. I was invited back to Flag by Div 6C.
They decided to use under the OPZ and the 4th Dynamic program
to expand the out-reach of Scientology based on an eval done by
Diana that had been approved, that had set up Operation 4th
Dynamic. Not OPZ. Operation 4th Dynamic. And there were many new
ideas of the bridge to the bridge. Of taking LRH stuff out
directly to the public instead of via the Orgs, to go out with an
out-reach. I can go into that program separately.
As part of this, Riggs Eckelberry wanted to do a series of
power hats and he asked me if I would do the Anatomy of the Human
Mind Course on video tape. And I also volunteered to do my power
hat of the PE Course which I've used in every mission I've ever
had. It's basically an LRH P.E. Course of how to reach the
general public so that people could buy this videotape and use it
in the new SMI programs and the new missions that were coming
along.
And there was a whole "let's get the tech out, let's get
LRH out". I was asked to do the Anatomy of the Mind data
because I was present when Ron did the original Congress with the
whole stage thing and I created Ron's mock-ups at the time, so we
were flown back to Flag just before Xmas.
At that time I talked to Bill Franks and he said that the
Mission Holders meeting was both a triumph and a disaster. It was
a triumph in the terms of the products that we got. We got some
incredible products: A revitalization and the International stats
are just going out the top. But it was a disaster from a PR
standpoint because we thoroughly upset the C.M.O. and they didn't
understand what was going on. (Peter

So he (Bill Franks) wrote an issue which is S.O. ED 1874 Int of 15 Dec 1981,
all staff, Sea Orgs, non-Sea Org, Class IV Orgs, fields, missions
and it's called MORE ON MANAGEMENT CHANGES.
And in this he tells something about the Mission Holders
meeting, the field expansion, the team effort, the subject of the
Boards of Investigations in recognition of the recent renaissance
within the Church, the new on-policy and on-source reorganization
and changes within the Guardians Office, and setting up a board
to hear grievances from all persons who feel they are currently
in conflict with the Church or to handle past conflicts that
haven't been resolved.
Then, he also said that he wanted to set up an International
Management and Field Advisory Board which would be comprised of
opinion leaders and people in the field in areas of power, such
as representatives from the Missions, such as Martin Samuels, a
representative from the legal field, such as the guy who's doing
judiciary Dianetics, and somebody from the business field. And
set up an Advisory Board to advise management, meaning Bill Franks, on maintaining friendly relations with the environment -
first policy.
And so the Advisory Board was put out by Lt. Commander Bill
Franks E.D. International and again he's talking about the
renaissance, the FEBC Program, the Operation outreach, the 4th
Dynamic Operation and the back-up and support and so forth. You
can read the issue. I mention that because one of the charges for
which Alan Walter was declared SP was for setting up this
International Management Field Advisory Board in an attempt to
take over the Church and it was declared a squirrel splinter
group.
I have here the International Field Advisory Board Admin
Scale.
Goal: to broadly advise service and provide good counsel in
assisting LRH Scientology Management and the field to maintain
friendly relations with the environment and the public.
- Purposes:
- to help individuals and groups attain the results
that standard LRH Tech and Admin can produce when standardly
applied. To bring to official notice and put on standard lines
for remedy any injustices, flubbed cases, ARC broken publics,
abuses of Rewards and Penalties P/L (3): to connect upstats and
maintain that connection per the Power Formula. This was written
and approved as part of the renaissance.
The Stats would be number of recovered Scientologists, number
of new people in, number of new groups formed, number of new
missions formed, number of new orgs formed, number of LRH books
sold, number of winning team members, number of flourishing and
prospering advisory boards, number of expansion opportunities
identified and exploited.
The V.F.P. would be: Friends who flourish and prosper due to
association and connection with other Scientologists, Management
and LRH. V.F.P. is an expanded and enhanced World Scientology
Community of OTs forming a true group of friends cooperatively
and joyfully pursuing future expansion across the dynamics.
Sounds very squirrely and suppressive doesn't it? One of the
cognitions we had at these meetings was that the product of an
S.P. is enemies. An S.P. is surrounded by enemies and therefore
he sees enemies and he makes enemies. And the history of the G.O.
under Jane Kember's, Mo Budlong's and others' management had been
to create enemies within and without Scientology.
Therefore, that's the product of a true OT and we've decided
it would be friends, and Ron's first policy was to maintain
friendly relations with the environment. So this was part of
Franks' overall expansion and revitalization program and during
all of this the stats were going up superbly. (Peter
