UFO's, Aliens, Men in Black, Government conspiracies and agendas. Like many people, Tom Keating thought that those things were the product of delusional minds and crackpots and was a skeptic himself until he met Spencer, a real Man in Black who was an elite insider who reveals on his deathbed the horrifying truth to the Alien Agenda. After Spencer passes on, Tom is compelled to reveal to the world a dire warning to mankind of the pending danger from an elite organization that rules every aspect of Human Activity.

Here, revealed for the first time, are its methods, how it gets its operatives and its money, and its a. ccom- plighments?in Guatemala, Iran and behind the Iron Curtain. PART -MAN with the plump pink cheeks and blue eyes of a typical middle-class German sat on the grassy hilltop overlooking the Red port city of Stettin on the left bank of the Oder River in communist-held Poland. As he had done every seasonable day of last spring, he basked in the warm April sun while washing down his lunch of dry bread and sausage with a liter of white wine, and watched the birds in the nearby trees through his field glasses. Then, rising to leave, he swept his glasses along the piers on the river front below, where freighters were being loaded for the thirty-mile trip northward along the Oder and into the open Baltic Sea. ONE Returning to his small machine-tool works after the noon hour, the businessman called in his secre- tary to take dictation. The letter, addressed to a French automobile-parts concern, was formal and concise in the stiff manner of German commercial houses. It cited precise specifications for presses his firm was offering for sale to stamp out motorcar fenders. The price was less than the British could quote. The machines carried the official guarantee of the Ministry of Machine Industry of the Polish People's Republic. It was a letter that the local Red commissar could approve ?and did.

Castillo Arm as (IA), whose American-armed "freedom forces" dr 3ve out Guatemala's Reds. and his pretty Nordic-type blond 'secretary" were plants of the United States' supersecret Central In- telligence Agency. The innocent-appearing address on the letter was, in reality, a CIA drop in Paris. Once the letter from Stettin was in the hands of America's espionage and counterespionage service, it was rushed to a corn nonplace-looking shop in the arty Montmartre sec 'ion, where a sign on the win- dow read SALON DE PHOTOGRAPHIE. Behind this front of a simple phoi ographic studio, a CIA micro- film technician went ?Lo work. The agent, squinting through a magnifying glass under bright lights, scraped at each " period " on the typewritten page with a delicate, razor-sharp instrument. Finally, one black dot came off. There, scarcely larger than the point of a pin, was a tiny circle of microfilm which had been pasted on the sheet of paper at the end of a sentence. It had been disguised by the ink of the secretary's typewriter ribbon back in Stettin as a period. The agent, holding his breath lest he blow away the minute speck, used tweezers to carry the film to a photograph c enlarger. When he emerged from the darkroom, i he blown-up message was the size of a tea saucer. The words could be read as easily as the words on this printed page. In accordance with basic intelligence security, the message was only gibberish to the CIA microfilm expert. (Also in accordance with security, what ac- tually happened in Stettin and Paris has been dis- guised in this account.) The spy team in Stettin had employed a code prearranged with CIA headquarters in Washington. The microfilm was a cryptogram based on a key in the twenty-second prayer of David in the Book of Psalms; that mournful lamentation of David which begins?appropriately, in view of the fate of the Poles under the Russians? "My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me?" The next step in CIA procedure was to transmit the unintelligible scramble to Washington by short- wave radio under the cipher address: "For AWD's eyes only." That meant: for the sole attention of Allen Welsh Dulles, the Government's first civilian director of the Central Intelligence Agency, and younger brother of Secretary of State John Foster Dulles. The message, decoded by a cryptographic machine and nronsoril?ed - purplish-bluc ink, was taken to Dulles in his office, where American and CIA flags and a huge world stereoscopic projection map dominate the room. Dulles worked with the supervising case man on this Polish project, and the full details of the report from Stettin are still classi- fied top secret. But this much may be related: The two agents confirmed the underground route they planned to follow?successfully, it turned out ?in leaving the Red port, threading their way across eighty-four miles of communist-patrolled country- side, and finding haven in a CIA "safe house" in West Berlin. To this may be added: When Dulles received the decoded message, he had information 20 1". UNITED PRESS The Swedish freighter Alfhem, which delivered 1900 tons of Czech munitions to Red-dominated Guate.J mala five months ago. When CIA agents reported the shipment, U.S. guns were flown to Colonel Armas. which enabled CIA to pull off one of the most suc- cessful intelligence coups of the entire cold war. He was hot on the trail of proof that the communist- dominated government of Guatemala was part and parcel of a Red conspiracy, hatched in Moscow, to give Russia a military toehold in Latin America hard by the Panama Canal. The message ? broadly paraphrased to protect code security ? said this: A freighter named the Alf- hem and flying the flag of Sweden had tied up at the dock at Stettin. More than 15,000 crates and boxes had been lowered into her hold. The rumor along the water front was that the cargo, which arrived by rail from Czechoslovakia, consisted of munitions from the communists' Skoda arms works. Dulles alerted agents in Eurppe and in Africa. From them, replies tracing the transaction were rushed to Washington. Stockholm: The Alfhem was owned by the Swedish shipping line, Angbats A. B. The line had chartered the vessel to a shipping agent in London, E. E. Dean. London: Terms of the charter stipulated that Dean, a financial middleman, should recharter the freighter to Alfred Christianson in Stockholm. Stockholm: Christianson represented the Alfhem as carrying optical-laboratory equip- ment and optical glass for the French West African port of Dakar. The Secret of the Devious Freighter ilTHER reports came into Dulles' office. Two drys out of Dakar, the captain received radio orders to change his course for Trujillo, Honduras. Two days out of Trujillo, the captain's orders were countermanded again. The Alfhem was to proceed and unload at Puerto Barrios, the Caribbean port city of Red Guatemala. For optical-laboratory equipment and optical glass, the shipment received extraordinary atten- tion. The Guatemalan Minister of Defense was on hand to direct unloading of the cargo at Puerto Barrios. Cordons of army troops sealed off the entire dock area. Details of soldiers guarded the special military trains which sped the freight to arsenals in Guatemala City. Despite a junior-sized Iron Cur- tain, Dulles again received a message: The 15,000 unmarked wooden boxes and (Totag were of 2 size and weight to contain 1900 tons of small arms and small-arms ammunition, plus light-artillery pieces. Dulles called an emergency session of the Intelli- gence Advisory Committee behind sealed doors in CIA headquarters. Seated around the table were the intelligence brains of the Federal Government ? the heads of the Army, Navy and Air Force intelligence, the intelligence officers of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the State Department and Atomic Energy Commis- sion, and a representative of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The committee, making the hours count, produced a quick crash estimate of the Guatemalan situation. Those 1900 tons of arms represented enough militarY might in Latin America to enable the Guatemalan Army to crush her neighbors, Honduras and El Sal- vador, and to march across Nicaragua and Costa Rica, to the Panama Canal. Immediately, with no recommendation as to a specific line of action, but with an emphatic warnin that action was urgent, Dulles laid the crash esti-. mate before the National Security Council. The first evident result came two days later, on May seven- teenth, when Secretary of State Dulles stripped the communist arms plot bare for all the world to see. The United States Government viewed the muni- tions shipment with gravity, he said, because of its origin and quantity. Then Washington lapsed into official silence for a week. But, during the period ending May twenty- fourth, the Department of Defense dispatched two Air .Force Globemasters over the Gulf of Mexico: Each plane ferried twenty-five tons of rifles, pistols; machine guns and ammunition to Honduras and Nicaragua. Now events ? some public, some veiled? ? were moving rapidly. Co]. Carlos Castillo Armas, former officer of the ? Guatemalan Army who was in exile in Honduras, obtained sufficient guns and munitions to equip! each man in a force of fellow anticommunist refugees! with a burp gun, a pistol and a machete. As he sent his troops across the Honduran-Guatemalan border .with an ultimatum to communist puppet Jacob? Arbenz Guzman to capitulate, Castillo dispatched his "air force" of two old World War II P-38 fighter planes to buzz Guatemala City. The Arbenz air force was the first to defect. The Guatemalan Army, fearing that the 1900 tons of Red arms from Stettin were actually intended for use by the communist- dominated labor unions, refused to fight. An anti)._ communist junta took over the country, and a overt Russian threat to the Western Hemisphe ' was averted, at least for the present. Some American citizens may find it disturbing and even noxious for their Government?to engage in such clandestine activity in faraway Stettin and Puerto Barrios. In the live-and-let-live days after World War I, the late Henry L. Stimson disbanded the "Black Chamber" of State Department code exports, because "gentlemen don't read other peo- ple's mail." Today, in this .period of cold war arter World War II, our Government is deeply involved countering Red espionage as it threatens the West- ern democracies. On assignment by The Saturday Evening Post these two Washington correspondents set out twelve months ago to cover the Central Intelligence Agency from every angle consistent with national security and the public interest. Our every interview, includ- ing talks with Government officials concerned with intelligence operations, and congressional leaders, plus exhaustive research, has had the aim of answer- ing the question: "What is the CIA up to?" ,AN I Ah t Vt.? ? \ Declassified and Approved For Release @50-Yr 2013/11/08: CIA-RDP74-00297R000601240028-2 Declassified and Approved For Release 50-Yr 2013/11/08: CIA-RDP74-00297R000601240028-2 UNI TED PRESS Px-CIA boss Walter Bedell Smith with Sen. Joe - - McCarthy, who has said the CIA is Red-infiltrated. Briefly, the answer must be stated like this: We are too prone to view our conflict with Russia in terms of the worry, "When will the Reds attack us militarily?" We strain to arm ourselves, thinking only in terms of communist atomic bombs hurtling down on the democratic West from supersonic lanes. The Russians hold that fear over us while ?,...4ey craftily go about their business of taking over tqrget countries from within. We plan to defend our- selves on land, on sea and in the air, when what we must also do is combat the communist enemy un- derground, where he uses the fourth dimension of war ?infiltration, subversion and conspiracy. The free world saw Poland engulfed by commu- nism. That easy Russian conquest was gained, at Yalta, by deceit. Czechoslovakia lived briefly, after the war, in the illusion of peaceful coexistence with communism. But Czechoslovakia suddenly found her free people submerged under Russian infiltra- tion. American military aid to the French in Indo- china far outstripped in amount, cost and quality the armed support given the Vietminh rebels by the Chinese communists. But the Reds enveloped a vast area containing 12,000,000 people, the city of Hanoi and the rich rice fields of Northern Vietnam largely by infiltrating, softening up and swallowing. So it was ? in Guatemala. Communist agitators, operating in the role of reformers, began infiltrating the public and private organizations of Guatemala as long as ten years ago. Agents indoc- trinated in such institutions as the Marx-Engels- Lenin School in Moscow, organized the peasants and workers on the banana plantations. Once in control of such mass groups, Reds soon took over the official press and radio of the Guatemalan Govern- ment. Through the technique of the political popular front, they dictated to the Guatemalan congress / '4 president. Most alarming was the fact that the nmunists had not simply oozed across a frontier into a contiguous territory, but they were able to leapfrog their subversion and infiltration across the Atlantic and Pacific oceans to Latin America and its vital Panama Canal. The CIA, working with "freedom forces" of Guatemalans, met the Reds early enough to hand Russia its defeat in Guatemala. As of today, the intelligence experts who attempt to gauge Russia's long-term intentions predict that the communists are not now prepared for military global conflict. That cautious assessment is based on information from behind the Iron Curtain which may be reported here only in bare-bone outline: Inside Russia: Despite the hard outer shell of Russia's military might ?a 4,000,000-man army, 20,000-plane air force and nuclear weapons esti- mated in four figures?all is not rosy within the U.S.S.R. Communist industry is progressing reason- ably well, spurred by an intensive program to train young scientists and engineers. This drive threatens to outstrip us in the live-or-die field of technology.

Later, she was rescued and granted political asylum. vexing problem, due to a breakdown in the commu- nist collective-farming system. The Soviet recently was forced to divert 100,000 workers from industry to agriculture. Premier Malenkov is in control, but he ordered the liquidation of Secret Police Chief L. P. Beria because Beria was plotting the ?eradica- tion of Malenkov "in two or three days." On the day Beria was seized, Red Army tanks rumbled into the outskirts of Moscow, as they did the night that Stalin died. So Russia's committee form of govern- ment, with its divided power, is not an easy form to maintain in a dictatorship. Conclusion: The Politburo is quite satisfied with the gains communism is making with, the present Red technique of subvert and conquer. The men in the Kremlin cannot be certain, even if they launched open military warfare and won a global conflict, that their regime could survive the retaliatory wreck- age and misery sure to be inflicted on the Russian tr-1 f- population. The Red rulers have no thought of win- ning a war for someone else. The U.S.S.R. is worried lest her major ally, communist China, get a little out of hand. Russia does not want to be dragooned into armed combat with the West by Mao Tse-tung, but prefers, if and when she wages war, to choose the time and place herself ?probably not before 1957 or 1958 at the earliest. The foregoing estimate of Russian plans and intentions is reported as no tidbit of gossip from the capital's cocktail-party circuit. It represents the warp and woof of our Government's foreign and domestic policy as patterned by the National Se- curity Council. If our leaders had thought open war was imminent, the Administration would have spon- sored no $7,400,000,000 reduction in Federal taxes at the recent session of Congress.

Humphrey would not be talking of the (Continued on Page 162) Declassified and Approved For Release @50-Yr 2013/11/08: CIA-RDP74-00297R000601240028-2 21 ., Declassified and Approved For Release 50-Yr 2013/11/08: CIA-RDP74-00297R000601240028-2 other- gill u 1.,t, Luc ? 1-:1 UVISLWIS oi any possibility- barring fresh outbreaks of ?
