1842. Alfred Lord Tennyson penned the poem,
Locksley Hall, expressing his belief that "Great Britain had a moral obligation to consolidate the world under British rule.
[1, page 12]
1870
s. Oxford professor
John Ruskin embraced Tennyson's vision with students, persuading them that "they had a moral obligation to disseminate English culture and unite the world under British rule.
[1, page 14] By early 1900s, many held strategic positions in the English Government, but none of his disciples would further the vision more effectively than
Cecil Rhodes.
1877. In his book,
Confession of Faith, Cecil Rhodes wrote: "The
Society [of the Elect]
'should inspire and
even own portions of the press for the press rules the mind of the people. The Society should always be searching for members who might by their position in the world by their energies or character forward the object…"
[Cecil Rhodes: Confessions of Faith]
1888.
Edward Bellamy also embraced
Tennyson's vision, and his book,
Looking Backward, helped spread the vision of a socialist world government.
[1, page 15] Bellamy clubs began forming across the USA. Among his followers was
Andrew Carnegie who believe in
monopoly capitalism -- socialism (a universal welfare system) with a ruling class of powerful capitalists who would control both governments and the people.
[1, page 16]
1890 (Autumn): "Rhodes sent his close friend W. T. Stead a letter explaining his plan for world government:
The key of my idea discussed with you is a Society, copied from the Jesuits as to organization... an idea which ultimately (leads) to the cessation of all wars and one language throughout the world.... The only thing feasible to carry this idea out is a secret one [society] gradually absorbing the wealth of the world to be devoted to such an object."
[6, page 13]"Rhodes’ 'universal peace' would begin, according to him, 'after one hundred years,' and it will be exactly one hundred years later in the autumn of 1990 that
President George Bush will spell out his “New World Order” concept for universal peace and cooperation."
[6-Cuddy, p.13] According to Dr. Cuddy, Rhodes’ letter would be "published in W. T Stead’s article in
Review of Reviews (May 1902)."
Looking back many years later, Professor Quigley described another step toward completion of this 100-year plan. Many of these men would undoubtedly be Rhodes Scholars:
"after thirty years there would be 'between two and three thousand men in the prime of life scattered all over the world, each one of whom, moreover, would have been specially-- mathematically -- selected toward the Founder’s purposes.” [Quigley quoting Stead].
[6-Cuddy, p.14]
1891 (February 5): "Rhodes’ secret society, 'The Society of the Elect,' is formally established.... Rhodes is the 'General,' with Stead, Milner, and Reginald Baliol Brett (Lord Esher) forming the executive committee. They were followed by the 'Circle of Initiates,' with an 'Association of Helpers' (later organized by Milner as the semi-secret Round Table Groups) beyond them."
[6, page 14]
1895: The
Fabian Socialists establish the London School of Economics. Though the Fabians are dominated by an intellectual elite, and The Group
[Rhodes' Round Table members] is dominated by a financial elite, they both believe in a socialist relationship between government and the masses...."
[6, page 14-15]
1891: To select and train world leaders worthy of his vision,
Cecil Rhodes established the
Rhodes Trust and the
Rhodes Scholarship Fund. He had acquired the wealth needed to pursue his global ambitions in the gold and diamond mines of southern Africa.
The power and influence of "During the past century over 4600 young men have been sent to Oxford University where they were indoctrinated in socialism and world government. President
Bill Clinton, General
Wesley Clark,
Strobe Talbot, Senator
Bill Bradley and thousands of other prominent men are
Rhodes Scholars. They work in
government offices, in international
banks, on the board of
corporations, in tax-exempt
foundation, in the
Supreme Court, in the
media, in our
universities in the
United Nations Association, and in the
Council on Foreign Relations."
[1, page 22]
1902. Cecil Rhodes died, and Lord Alfred Milner took control of the Rhodes Trust.
1909. Lord Milner's secretive
Round Table Group was established. Professor Quigley exposed some of the evolving ties between the global banking fraternity and these evolving "semi-secret discussion and lobbying groups," which helped foment World War I as a means to raise public support for a
League of Nations.
"By 1915, Round Table Groups existed in seven countries, including England...(and) the United States.... Since 1925, there have been substantial contributions from wealthy individuals, and from foundations and firms associated with the international banking fraternity, especially... organizations associated with J. P. Morgan, the Rockefeller and Whitney families...." Quigley, 950-951.
1913 (January). President
Woodrow Wilson wrote in his book,
The New Freedom: "We are in a new world.... In the new order,
government and business must be associated closely.... We stand in the presence of a
revolution.... (which)
will come in peaceful guise...." He continued with this amazing revelation. Remember, this was happening almost a century ago! What we see today is the result of this hidden but rising iceberg:
"Some of the biggest men in the U.S., in the field of commerce and manufacturing, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it. . . . We
have been dreading all along the time when the combined power of high finance would be greater than the power of government....
"We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated, governments in the civilized world—no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the
opinion and duress of small groups of dominant men.... We are in a new world.... Behind the
whole subject, of course, is the truth that, in the new order, government and business must be associated closely.... We stand in the presence of a revolution... (which) will come in peaceful guise."
[6-Cuddy, pps.24-25]1913 (December 23): President Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act. "One of the individuals who helped to plan the Federal Reserve is Frank Vanderlip, president of Rockefeller’s National City Bank."
[6-Cuddy, p.25]
1915. According to the Reece Committee (the Special House Committee to Investigate Tax-Exempt Foundations), which would later investigate tax-exempt foundations that funded communist organizations and their international goals, the
Carnegie Endowment for International Peace launched a propaganda program in 1915 to persuade the American people to fight in World War 1. During these investigations in the 1950s, the Congressional Committee found that:
- Many of our large foundations were actively promoting communism and socialism
- The foundations influenced State Department policy and were largely responsible for bringing communism to China.
- The foundations were working to undermine our constitutional form of government.
In the official minutes of the
Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, the Reece Committee also found the following specific questions which were discussed by the Carnegie trustee:
"Is there any means known to man more effective than war, assuming you wish to alter the life of an entire people?'"
"How do we involve the United States in a war?"
"How do we control the diplomatic machinery of the United States?" [Their conclusion: "We" must control the State Department]
[5]1917. Dr. Monteith wrote that "J. P. Morgan and his associates controlled twenty five of our most influential newspapers. The atrocity stories [about the war] were designed to
raise public support of American entry into World War 1" -- an essential step toward public acceptance of a world government. According to the Congressional Record (2-17-1917),
"...the
J.P. Morgan [banking] interests.... and their subsidiary organizations got together 12 men high up in the newspaper world and employed them to select the most influential newspapers in the United States and sufficient number of them to control generally the policy of the daily press of the US.... They found it was only necessary to
purchase the control of 25 of the greatest papers. ...
an editor was furnished for each paper to properly supervise and edit information...."
[1, page 9]
1917 (11-28). After Lenin's triumph in Russia,
Colonel Mandel House, President Woodrow Wilson's main advisor and -- as President Wilson called him, "my altar ego" -- cabled the president the following message from Paris: "There have been cabled over and published here
statements made by American papers to the effect that Russia should be treated as an enemy. It is exceedingly important that
such criticism should be suppressed."
[6-Cuddy, p.32]
According to Dr. Dennis Cuddy,
Col. House was "the man primarily responsible for the
League of Nations Covenant (influenced by the Fabian Socialists' drafts for the League), would also be largely responsible for the establishment of the
Council on Foreign Relations. In June, 1923, he wrote in its
Foreign Affairs journal:
"
If war had not come in 1914 in fierce and exaggerated form, the idea of an association of nations would probably have remained dormant, for
great reforms seldom materialize except through great upheavals.... If law and order are good within states, there can be no reasons why they should not be good between states [nations]."
[6-Cuddy, p.30] 1917. In its report published in 1954, the Reece Committee (the Special House Committee to Investigate Tax-Exempt Foundations) explained and quoted the official minutes of the Board of Trustees of the
Carnegie Endowment for International Peace:
"These trustees in a meeting about 1917 had the brashness to congratulate themselves on the wisdom of their original decision because already the impact of war had indicated it... could alter life in this country. ... they even had the brashness to ... dispatch a telegram to Mr. Wilson, cautioning him to see that the war did not end too quickly....
"The concern became, as expressed by the trustees, seeing to it that there was no reversion to life in this country as it existed prior to 1914. And they came to the conclusion that, to prevent a reversion, they must control education. And then they approached the Rockefeller Foundation and they said: 'Will you take on the acquisition of control of education as it involves subjects that are domestic in their significance?' And it was agreed. Then together they decided that the key to it was the teaching of American history and they must change that."[7]
1918. "
Russia is pointing the way to a great and sweeping world changes. It is not in Russia alone that the old order is passing . There is a lot of the old order in America, and that is going, too.... I am glad it is so." William Boyce Thompson,
Federal Reserve Bank director and founding member of the
Council on Foreign Relations wrote these words in the January issue of
New York World.
[10, p. 10]
1918 (August 7). Financier Bernard Baruch, chairman of the War Industries Board (who in 1944
advised President Roosevelt concerning "War and Postwar Plans"), said:
"Every man's life is at the call of the nation and so must be every man's property.
We are living today in a highly organized state of socialism. The state is all; the individual is of importance only as he contributes to the welfare of the state. His property is only as the state does not need it. He must hold his life and his possessions at the call of the state."
[6-Cuddy, p.32]
1919 (February).
The League of Nations. "The terrible losses of World War 1 produced... an ever growing public demand that some method be found to prevent the renewal of the suffering and destruction which were now seen to be an inescapable part of modern war. So great was the force of this demand that within a few weeks after the opening of the
peace conference of Paris in January 1919, unanimous agreement had been reached on the text of the
covenant of the League of Nations." Brit-13-851
Col. House wrote the first draft of that covenant.
1919. Col. House deliberately misled world leaders into rejecting any notion of blocking the Bolshevik Revolution. The following statement is from his diary: "I had a heart to heart talk with Clemenceau [Premier of France] about Bolshevism in Russia and its westward march. I made him confess that military interventions was impossible.... Later in the afternoon, when Orlando [Premier of Italy] called, I gave him very much the same kind of talk.... I am trying, and have partially to succeeded, to frighten not only the President [Wilson] but the English, French and Italians regarding what might be termed 'the Russian peril.'"
[6-Cuddy, p.34-35]
1921. The
Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) was founded -- mainly through
Col. House's influence. To build the needed network of globalist support groups, it would disperse tens of millions of dollars annually from the major tax-exempt foundations such as the
Carnegie and
Rockefeller foundations. Global Tyranny, page 54
The
CFR would be the U.S. equivalent of the British
RIIA,
the Royal Institute of International Affairs. As Professor
Quigley wrote,
"...the original plans for the Royal Institute of International Affairs and the Council on Foreign Relations were drawn up at Paris." Quigley, 952.
1922. New York city Mayor John Hylan's description of the shadow government developing on the national level fits the international transformation as well:
"the real menace of our republic is this invisible government which like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy length over city, State and nation. Like the octopus of real life, it operates under cover of self-created screen. It seizes in its long and powerful tentacles our executive officers, our legislative bodies, our schools, our courts, our newspapers and every agency created for the public protection."
[8]
1925. The
International Bureau of Education was founded with a grant from the
Rockefeller Foundation. It later became part of
UNESCO.
1931 (November).
Arnold Toynbee delivers a speech to the institute for the
Study of the International Affairs at Copenhagen in which he explains,
"We are at present working
discreetly with all our might to
wrest this mysterious force called sovereignty out of the clutches of the local nation states of the world. All the time we are
denying with our lips what we are doing with our hands, because to impugn the sovereignty of the local nation states of the world is still a heresy for which as statesman or publicist can... be ostracized or discredited." [The Trend of International Affairs Since the War,"
International Affairs, Journal of the Royal Institute of International Affairs.]
[6-Cuddy, p.50]
1932.
Rockefeller Foundation president Max Mason tells trustees that "The
Social Sciences will concern themselves with the
rationalization of social control...
the control of human behavior."
[8, p.18]
1932. Dr. Ernst
Rudin, the Nazi director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Psychiatry (funded by "
Rockefeller) was appointed president of the global
Eugenics Federation.
1934 (February). A
Rockefeller "progress report" (by one of the division heads) asks, "Can we develop so sound and extensive a genetics that we can hope to breed, in the future, superior men?" Cuddy, 18.
1935. The Masonic symbol of the eye in the pyramid is officially added to the U.S. dollar bill. Henry A. Wallace, President Roosevelt's Secretary of Agriculture (a Socialist and Theosophist who later became Roosevelt's vice-president) explained:
"Roosevelt as he looked at the colored reproduction of the
Seal was first struck with the representation of the '
All Seeing Eye,' a Masonic representation of The Great Architect of the Universe....
Roosevelt like myself was a 32nd degree Mason. He
suggested that the Seal be put on the dollar bill." Henry A. Wallace, Socialist Sec. of Agriculture and, later, Vice President under Roosevelt."

1935. In a report presented at the 72nd annual NEA meeting, Willard Givens (later NEA executive secretary) wrote: "
A dying laissez-faire must be completely destroyed and
all of us...
must be subjected to a large degree of social control. .. The major function of the school is the social orientation of the individual. It must seek to give him understanding of the
transition to a new social order."
[9]
1937. John Foster Dulles, former (?) chairman of the Rockefeller foundation and of the executive committee of the Federal Council of Churches (replaced by the National Council of Churches) praised totalitarianism saying:
"...Communism and Fascism [are] changing almost overnight the characteristics of entire peoples. Millions of individuals have been made into different and, on the whole, finer people...personal prides (individualism) ... (is) replaced by ... self-sacrifice and discipline. There is a conscious subordination of self to the end that some great objective maybe furthered." (Religion in Life, Vol. 6 No. p.197)

939. Future Secretary of State John Foster Dulles (CFR member) delivers a speech to YMCA. He states, "[There must be] some dilution of sovereignty, to the immediate disadvantage of those nations which now possess the preponderance of power...." (New York Times, 10-29)
1941 (January 6). In his speech to a Joint Session of Congress, President
Franklin D. Roosevelt said, "Since the beginning of our American history we have been engaged in change – in a perpetual
peaceful revolution – a revolution which goes on steadily,
quietly adjusting itself to changing conditions.... The '
World Order' which we seek is the
co-operation of free countries, working together in a friendly, civilized society.... Freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere."

1941. The
Declaration of the United Nations was signed by 26 states. It would help lay the foundation for the envisioned global reign. Few realized the very real conspiracy behind World War II -- a stepping stone to the planned future. [See
Trusting God as Freedom Fades]
1942 (February or March) "...
six years before the World Council of Churches was formally launched, its organizers within the
Federal Council of Churches [renamed National Council of Churches] held a
National Study conference at Wesleyan University in Ohio. Among the 30 delegates were 15 bishops, seven seminary presidents, and eight college and university presidents.
John Foster Dulles, who later became Secretary of State in the Eisenhower administration, chaired the conference. As head of the Federal Council's inter-Church “Commission to Study the Bases of a Just and Durable Peace,” Dulles submitted the conference report. It recommended:
