T h i s book, " D e s t r o y the A c c u s e r , " by veteran newspaperman
F r e d e r i c k Seelig is the f i r s t of its kind i n A m e r i c a . It is i n c r e d ible that a man could experience the t o r t u r e here i n A m e r i c a that
M r . Seelig suffered i n the name of " m e n t a l health j u s t i c e . "
T h i s v i c t i m , unlike others he knew, l i v e d to t e l l ; although it i s
a question whether having to l i v e now l i k e a hunted a n i m a l i s
w o r t h the s u r v i v a l . He was told that papers w e r e signed and
ready to c o m m i t h i m permanently to an insane a s y l u m should he
ever t e l l what he knew, and besides, he couldn't l i v e o v e r s i x
months after what they had done to h i m .
Y o u w i l l need a strong stomach to r e a d this s t o r y , but i f you
p e r s i s t , it w i l l have p r e p a r e d you for what i s i n store for any c i t i z e n daring to object to p e r v e r s i o n , W o r l d G o v e r n m e n t , or u n constitutional edicts by arrogant o f f i c i a l s .
To study the case of F r e d e r i c k Seelig i s to r e c o i l i n h o r r o r
f r o m the c l e a r - c u t inference that the rights of the i n d i v i d u a l a r e

A s a r e s u l t of the "treatment" to w h i c h he was subjected by his
" j a i l e r s , " he i s suffering i n d e s c r i b a b l e pain with a nervous s y s t e m that s i m p l y has been shredded.
A f o r m e r m e m b e r of the C o n g r e s s , T o m W e r d e l , a fighting attorney who has r e t u r n e d to p r i v a t e p r a c t i c e , s a i d this man's life
was i n danger and indeed he d i d p o s s e s s knowledge that was dangerous .
M o s t i m p o r t a n t i n the eyes of F r e d e r i c k S e e l i g a r e those two

Can persons of h o m o s e x u a l i n c l i n a t i o n s adopt c h i l d r e n who a r e

wanton d i s r e g a r d to the " c i v i l r i g h t s " of innocent c h i l d r e n ( to be

If you can deem this to be "none of your b u s i n e s s " you have

C U S T O D Y T O H O M O S E X U A L PERVERTS

Victims of *Greaf Society' Obscenityl

Federal agencies stooped to a new perversion sewer low in the Los Angeles County
homosexual-cesspool when custody of Sandra, II, and her brother, Edward Sealig,
10, was given to proven homosexual degenerates. The Justice Department seized and
destroyed evidence. Their father was silenced by political tyranny imprisonment.
It conformed with White House policy similar to protection given homosexual Walter
Jeniclns, to Presidential aide of LBJ and "intimate" for 25 years. The Disciples of
Sodomy and other anti-Christian minorities are a sinister power in the government.

PEGLER

I a m haunted by the p i c t u r e of that innocent l i t t l e g i r l i n the

a r m s of a m o n s t e r w i t h t e r r o r e x p r e s s e d i n her one v i s i b l e eye.
The poor father must have been d r i v e n nigh m a d by that p i c t u r e
alone.
What you a r e about to r e a d i n these pages i s the pathetic and
t e r r i b l e s t o r y of that poor father's efforts to r e s c u e h i s two l i t t l e
c h i l d r e n f r o m unspeakable d e p r a v i t y . It begins as one man's stor y ; it becomes the s t o r y of a whole nation that i s v i s i b l y dying of
m o r a l gangrene.
That i s why this s t o r y i s a challenge to the w e l l - h e e l e d p a t r i otic and c o n s e r v a t i v e organizations that a r e f o r e v e r t e l l i n g us
they a r e going to save the nation. F r e d S e e l i g ' s s t o r y says to
them: put up o r shut up. H e r e i s a s p e c i f i c case that can be i n vestigated. H e r e i s c o r r u p t i o n that can be exposed--the v i l e s t
c o r r u p t i o n extending, it seems, to the highest p l a c e s .
It may not be too late to r e s c u e the two c h i l d r e n . It c e r t a i n l y
i s not too late to follow the t r i a l of the beastly people who made
those c h i l d r e n s e r v e t h e i r p e r v e r t e d l u s t s . A n d i f the t r a i l leads
to high p u b l i c o f f i c i a l s , so m u c h the w o r s e . F o l l o w i t to the top.
G e t the facts; get the proof. If judges, p u b l i c p r o s e c u t o r s , and
some rotten A t t o r n e y G e n e r a l be guilty of c o m p l i c i t y i n this c r i m e
- - s e n d t h e m a l l to p r i s o n for the m a x i m u m .
T h i s i s a job for a r e p o r t e r - - a r e p o r t e r , i f I may be so i m modest, with the energy, the tenacity, and the i n t e l l i g e n t courage
of the W e s t b r o o k P e g l e r of twenty y e a r s ago. T o such a r e p o r t e r
I would say:
" T h i s s t o r y can be c r a c k e d - - c r a c k e d wide open f r o m C a l i f o r n i a to Washington and back a g a i n . G o to the beginnings. G e t the
c o m p l a i n t s out of the station-house r e c o r d s . G e t photostats of
the t e s t i m o n y . Investigate the reputations of the o f f i c i a l s who
took part; follow t h e i r back t r a i l u n t i l you know w h e r e they come
f r o m , what makes t h e m t i c k , and who put t h e m w h e r e they a r e .
F i n d the c h i l d r e n . G e t p i c t u r e s of t h e m today. F i n d someone to
talk to them and get f r o m t h e i r l i p s the s t o r y of what was done to
them and of what i s now being done to t h e m . Y o u m a y not be able
to p r i n t a l l of that, but you need to know.

" L o o k into the m y s t e r y of the Department of J u s t i c e i n W a s h ington and the l a z a r house i n S p r i n g f i e l d , M i s s o u r i . F i n d other
s u r v i v o r s of i n c a r c e r a t i o n t h e r e .
T h e r e must be some; there
m a y be quite a few.
L e t t h e m t e l l you what the c r a z y heads h r i n k e r s d i d to t h e m . If they have been b r o k e n i n body and m i n d ,
be patient. If they a r e t e r r i f i e d by t h r e a t s , get t h e m to l o o s e n
up. A r e a l newspaperman knows how to do i t ,
" F i n d out who the big boys i n that outfit a r e , and then find out
who the big b o y s ' dads w e r e and where on earth they came f r o m
to this country. Y o u m a y s m e l l some coincidences that a r e n ' t
funny.
"Get the whole s t o r y . It can be done. Don't d r i n k on this job.
Stay w i t h i t . Stay up a l l night, but be a r e p o r t e r . The k i n d of
r e p o r t e r who dug up E l l i o t t Roosevelt's K a t h l e e n M a v o u r n e e n loans
and p r o v e d them against the whole rotten R o o s e v e l t household
w h i l e the thieving o l d m a n was s t i l l on h i s throne. The k i n d of

named K l e a n o r R o o s e v e l t correspondent i n a d u l t e r y i n A l b a n y ,
New Y o r k . "
That i s what I would say to the r e p o r t e r . B u t no r e p o r t e r i s
going to do it on h i s own--not when just one telephone c a l l f r o m a
big mouth i n Washington to a j u n i o r H e a r s t anywhere i n the c o u n t r y can k i l l any s t o r y i n one minute. That i s where the great cons e r v a t i v e s come i n . A r e they going to spend money p r i n t i n g c a r r
loads of platitudes that no one ever reads through, or a r e they
going to spend money for a good r e p o r t e r to camp out on this
spoor u n t i l he m a k e s the whole nation s i t up and take n o t i c e ?
T h i s book i s just the l e a d for a bigger s t o r y - - t h e k i n d of s t o r y
e v e r y man and woman can understand and f e e l . T h a t ' s why it
gives our b i g p a t r i o t s a chance to show whether they mean b u s i ness a l l the w a y - - o r just good b u s i n e s s . T h e y can go on sitting
i n t h e i r lanaasaries and w r i t i n g l o v e y - d o v e y notes to t h e i r " d e d i cated" c o n t r i b u t o r s , or they can take the s t r a p off the b a n k r o l l

psychiatric methods are used by the U. S. Justice Department.
Arrests are made on charges with no intent to permit trial; quickly substituted is subterfuge psychiatric prosecution.
Within a few days after being incarcerated, the political p r i soner was thrust into a "special" strip-nude drain hole for Pavlovian "music therapy" to soften his mind and brain. A loudspeaker concealed in a wall ventilator, covered by heavy mesh
steel wire, emitted shrill, high-intensity ultra sound played continuously day and night from a tape recorder. Blasts of cold air
gushed out of the ventilator at intervals.
Huddled on the cement floor in a corner of the cell, he closed
the palms of his hands over his ears in futile effort to muffle the
din. Within minutes he lapsed into a stupor and then unconsciousness. His mind couldn't cope with the sound vibrating in his head.
Three days and nights he lay in a coma on the cement floor without food or water.
Consciousness was regained when the "music" ceased. His
head throbbed with the sound vibrating in his mind for weeks afterward. The Federal prison psychiatrists entered his cell daily
and made notes on the effects on his mind and the extent of damage, if any, to his brain.
If you are shocked and appalled to stomach much more - -then
close this book now! Thus far what has been disclosed is mild in
comparison to what is yet to be revealed. A l l is substantiated by
documentation, transcripts of court records, petitions, affidavits
and motions denied hearings.

***
The writer was the political prisoner who crawled for food in
the drain hole. Behind my imprisonment is a sordid story of
rigged and corrupt proceedings by the Justice Department in the
Federal courts to cover up homosexual and communist influence
in government corruption. My two children were the pawns in
this pervert corruption.
For nearly two years I was the political prisoner of the late
President John F , Kennedy and his brother, Robert Kennedy, then
the Attorney General who directed the savagery of the Justice Department. Now he is a U. S. Senator with aspirations for the
Presidency!
Kennedy imprisoned me at the so-called Medical Center for
Federal Prisoners in Springfield, Missouri. It is image-built
under the label of being a "hospital" and a "mental institution, "
but it is neither. It is a hard-core, hell-hole penitentiary where
young doctors are indoctrinated and trained in Communist psychiatric torture. Prisoners are used as guinea pigs in experiments.
For three years, starting in 1957, I had tried to safeguard my
little daughter and son from an abominable life of homosexuality.
But the homosexual and Communist perversion corruption in the
Los Angeles County Superior Courts, administrative agencies and
the State of California was such that I sought and was refused
hearings and investigation.
In behalf of my children I brought charges against the county
8

and state officials for protecting homosexuals and exposing my

children to sexual degenerates. Had any of the charges not been
true I would have been arrested and prosecuted for libel. But
they knew I had ponderous evidence of p roof and witnesses to substantiate the charges I had made; a libel trial would have exposed
the rampant homosexuality and communism in government--state
and Federal!
Threats were made that unless I was mute on what I had uncovered, I'd be imprisoned for alleged insanity. Both major political parties were concerned because the organized homosexuals had a tremendous 'slushfund' and were financing local, state
and national candidates in the elections.
Photocopies of pictorial evidence against the homosexuals r e garding my daughter and son, Sandra and Edward Seelig; obscene
letters written by homosexuals telling of their activities and affidavits of witnesses were sent to the Los Angeles County Probation
Department, the involved judges of the Superior Courts, County
Supervisor Warren Dorn, the Board of Supervisors, the Grand
Jury, District Attorney William McKesson and the presiding Superior Court Judge, Louise Burke.
Investigation and hearings were asked and plead for the safeguarding and protection of my children. I reiterated the charges
to Carter Coker, the District Attorney's investigator, and told
him what I had uncovered; how the children had been kept in a
Venice shack where they were sexually abused and maltreated,
had gone hungry and without baths, and of the neighbors feeding
them.
In Santa Monica Superior Court, Judge Edward Brand favored
the homosexuals, refused to ask the Grand Jury to investigate the
criminality, or Marylouise Rymal and Gloria Busch, the county
social service workers, who upheld homosexuality for children
and had exposed them to perverts.
The homosexuals and operators of pervert bars had threatened
to kill the children if I released what I had learned or the documented proof on their nationwide operations and international links
with the Communist Party to undermine sexual laws and moral
codes; the homosexual-Communist "slush funds" used in California and national elections! The Los Angeles County officials and
judges knew of those threats and the "slush funds. "
The county social service workers and Judge Brand used the
children as emotional weapons against the possible publication of
what I had accumulated and would not tell me the whereabouts of
my daughter and son. The welfare and safety of my children prevented making public disclosures.
F r o m 1958 through I960 I did not cease my fight in behalf of
my youngsters. Practically every week I was in Judge Brand's
chambers for custody hearings. The homosexual attorneys, their
pervert clients, and county officials, including Probation Department Director Karl Holton, accused me of "imagining" charges~
despite evidence and witnesses. They accused me of being "psychiatrically ill" in my aversion to homosexuals.
My records show that on January 12, 1959, I sent a registered
letter to the Grand Jury with a petition and complaint against Marylouise Rymal, Gloria Busch, Judge Brand and K a r l Holton, r e 9

questing an investigation, hearing of witnesses and examination

of evidence to determine the validity of the charges. February
25, 1959, the Grand Jury replied. It refused to give a hearing!
On July 20, I960, a sworn statement was sent by registered
mail to Governor Edmund Brown. An excerpt follows:
"Homosexual bar operators and other perverts, in the
presence of witnesses, boasted they had supported you and
Attorney General Stanley Mosk with "slush funds" in your
election campaign and of their influence and power in the
courts and the government. Request hearings and investigation into the organized homosexual corruption in the Superior
Courts and state government as well as the pervert "slush
funds."
Governor Brown was silent--but, I didn't know until after mv
release from the Federal penitentiary in 1962 that John F . Kennedy, then a U. S. Senator with aspirations for the Presidency,
had in May and June of 1959 been quietly seeking all the information he could get on the evidence and material I had against the
Brown Democratic "liberal" regime, the nationwide organized
homosexuals in political activities and how damaging it would be
in his quest for the Presidency!
Pat Cooney, a Los Angeles attorney and reported henchman
for Joseph Kennedy, the billionaire father who was notorious for
buying elections and judgeships, made the probe on evidence I
had. Cooney also reportedly was buying up California Democratic delegates for JFK's Democratic nomination for the Presidency
in I960!
It was in the closing days of the Eisenhower administration
that Attorney General Herbert Brownell kept me incommunicado
in the Texas Potter County Jail. After J F K took office in the
White House, his brother, Robert, took up with a vengeancewhere
Brownell left off.
Twice, FBI agents, in Los Angeles in 1958 and early in I960
in Baltimore, interviewed me extensively on what I had uncovered
nationally and internationally on the Communist-homosexual syndicalism and on the charges I was making against Los Angeles
County officials, judges, and homosexuals.
They told me they had no authority for any action except to
make a report to the Justice Department. Both gave me friendly
warnings that what I had uncovered put me in a precarious political position.
In late 1959, in Washington, I met with newsmen in the National
Press Club whom I knew and had worked with as long as twenty
years; including Leo Farrell, who had been a Democratic Party
press liason aide for Harry Truman. With their aid I obtained
revealing portions of testimony given in the 1950 U. S. Senate
hearings on homosexuals and Communsits in the government; that
testimony has never been released to the public. President T r u man, following the protective policy of Franklin D. Roosevelt, in
1951 sealed the transcripts by an Executive Order.
That testimony substantiated the charges made by Senator Joseph McCarthy for which he was vilified by the Communists, homosexuals and pseudo-Americans posing as "liberals."

11

The lives and future of my small children were at stake and I

refused to be silent. That led to my arrest on a Federal misdemeanor charge of mailing alleged libelous matter. The arrest
took the "hook" off the Los Angeles County and California State
officials!
Since the political power of the organized homosexuals is nationwide, reaching into both parties, the White House and all government agencies, the Kennedys were accomodating to the C a l i fornian "liberals and moderates. "
There was no intent either to allow me to see my children and
know of their activities or to put me on trial for libel; collusion
between the California officials, the Justice Department and the
Department of Health, Education and Welfare saw to that!
Robert Kennedy's Justice Department substituted a subterfuge
--Communist-created psychiatric penal prosecution. The Justice
Department then confiscated all my files of evidence, property,
and assets worth $60, 000. 00 so I would be impoverished. What
better way to prevent a defendant from obtaining counsel and to
silence him with Communist psychiatric imprisonment where he
can be incapacitated and destroyed?
That is exactly what the image-built and deified Kennedys did
with the power of the Justice Department and politically stacked
Federal Courts. But it took seven corrupt and rigged psychiatric
prosecution proceedings in two Federal districts and over 150
violations of the B i l l of Rights, Articles of the Constitution and
American jurisprudence codes to imprison me!
Three times I was transported across the country shackled in
chains, leg-irons and handcuffs; starved, degraded, demoralized
and humiliated. Clothing rotted off my body; maltreatment caused
toe-nails to curl into the flesh. For weeks my toes were caked
with blood.
It didn't take long to learn that Americans no longer have B i l l
of Rights protection against political tyranny imprisonments. Often I wondered what country's laws or constitution prevailed--Sodom, Talmud, United Nations or Soviet Russia--and if I was still
in the United States! For a certainty it wasn't anything American
from December 2, I960 through November 1962; nor from 1957
to i960 so far as my son and daughter were concerned.
Statutes mandate court arraignment within 72 hours after an
arrest. Instead, I was "railroaded" as "insane" to a Texas F e d eral hospital-prison without a doctor's examination, a hearing,
appearing in court, or being represented by counsel. A Texas
Federal Medical Board found me sane and competent with a high
IQ after 30 days of exhaustive medical tests.
Now the Justice Department had to find another way to prevent
my libel trial and its disclosures--a falsified motion to transfer
case and trial to Southern California was filed. Eighty-four days
after my arrest I made my first court appearance.
Two weeks later, sheriff aides in L,os Angeles County Jail r e fused to be a party to violation of the B i l l of Rights when they
learned I had not been arraigned for more than three months.
They notified the U. S. Attorney's office I would be freed the next
morning unless I was arraigned. I was held on "open charges"
and not allowed bail.
12

Thus it was, that after 114 days I was finally arraigned and
given a preliminary hearing, although still not allowed bail, on a
misdemeanor charge. Statutes mandate a prisoner must be a r raigned within 72 hours after arrest and allowed freedom on a
reasonable bail.
Up until now there were over 80 violations of the B i l l of Rights
--now I was to be placed in "double jeopardy, " as the Los Angeles U. S, Attorneys re-instituted Communist psychiatric prosecution. This was easily done by the "rigging" of every proceeding
in the Los Angeles Federal Courts that had no jurisdiction for any
proceedings:
I was not allowed a sanity trial.
No witnesses nor evidence in my behalf was allowed.
Recent Federal evidence attesting my sanity and competency
was not allowed.
I was denied return of confiscated evidence for my defense.
Having been brought into this court by a falsified document, I
was now to be judged, as to my sanity, a second time. Now, the
U.S. Attorneys could not afford a second competent medical board
they brought in a charlatan, alleged doctor who was on the payroll of the very officials whom I had accused! The doctor testified as he was told by the government. His statements exonerated his employers of all charges against them as well as defended
those implicated in homosexuality. Having seen me one time and
without the benefit of a single test, he pronounced me, not only
"legally insane for the last five years (which covered the entire
period of the California corruption case) but a "homosexual who
'imagined' everyone else was. His testimony condemned me to
penal, psychiatric torture.
Millions of Americans are unaware that political imprisonments, rigged and corrupt politically-stacked courts, government
slavery, torture and maiming of prisoners is happening in our
United States. They have been brainwashed by psycho-political
image-builders, managed news prostitutes, politically-stacked
courts with liars and cheats in the highest offices.
Although I had not been convicted of any offense. Judge Yankwich "sentenced" me to the Federal penitentiary for alleged "insanity" on the perjury of county "Psychiatrist, " Thomas Gore, a
man, not only unqualified as a psychiatrist, but one with a c r i m inal record!
I immediately wrote appeals petitions
on violations of the
Constitution, addressed to the Sanj Francisco U. S. Court of A p peals, dated A p r i l 3, 1961. The Los Angeles U . S . Marshal incepted the petitions, turned them over to the U, S. Attorney's office (where they were held for ten days), then, instead of mailing
them to San Francisco, gave the petitions to the Los Angeles Federal courts for a quick denial of rights by Judge Harry Westover.
This is but one example of the collusion between Federal Courts
and the Justice Department in the "railroading" of a political prisoner. I was apprised of the denial while at Springfield Medical
Center Penitentiary, May 10th--beyond the 30-day time limit for
appeals.
My road to appeal held every possible impediment: refusal to
mail documents, mail held beyond time limits, threats, intimida13

tion, mental and physical punishment, and theft of records. C o pies of petitions, motions and excerpts from affidavits in the ap pendix disclose the torture, brutality, and cruelties inflicted by
psychiatrists that would be too incredible to believe were they
not substantiated by documentation.
On August 31, 1961, notice was mailed to the San'Francisco
Court of Appeals that I was filing a Certiorari petition in the U.S.
Supreme Court on denial of Constitutional Rights. For a change,
the San Francisco Appellate Court adhered to the B i l l of Rights.
September 4th: "We will prepare a record for Certiorari petition
in the above cause (No. 1195 Misc. ), advising you when it is forwarded to the Suoreme Court of the United States. "
On January 16, 1962, D r . Richard Stamm, psychiatrist, and
Senior Surgeon, USHS, chief Neuropsychiatric Service, informed
my sister, M r s . Henry D, Klopfer, in Schenectady, N. Y, , that
I was incurably insane and dangerous and she was to sign forms
for electro-shock therapy which, he said, would cure me. She
refused and, together with my son by a former marriage, began
an investigation. Through this letter, my family and relatives
first learned of my predicament. My sister wrote letters, made
phone calls to U . S . Senators, Congressmen, and Federal officials
and asked embarrassing questions.
She received the current
White House reply to charges of corruption and perversion--Silence!
My son, Philip, instituted a running fight with the Springfield
penitentiary for information and he, too, was threatened with psychiatric imprisonment. Had it not been for their defiance of Federal bureaucrats it is likely my brains would have been "broiled."
However, I did not know the fight they were putting up for me as
I was allowed no correspondence with relatives.
For writing the following letter, my son was threatened with
penal "therapy. "
Kimbell Johnson, Director
Bureau of Personnel Investigations
U . S . Civil Service Commission
Washington 25, D. C.
re: File INA:WRP:lp and letter
of 6/18/62.
Dear M r . Johnson:
Please note the enclosed photostat of a letter signed by
D r . Richard Stamm. My father was railroaded into this socalled medical center oh the basis of a one-hour examination
and a falsified report by a Thomas Gore, M . D. , in the U . S.
District Court, Los Angeles. Not admitted into evidence was
a report by a f i v e - m n board of psychiatrists based on thirty
days of tests and examinations at the U . S. Public Health Service Hospital, Fort Worth, Texas, finding my father to be
sane and legally competent.
Since being committed, my father has been denied legal
counsel and has been subjected to sub-bestial, humiliating,
and degrading treatment designed to break his resistance and
reduce him to the level of his tormentors.
Among those persons at the Federal Prison Medical Cen14

ter who are responsible for the i l l treatment and falsified reports concerning diagnosis and prognosis are: D r . R. O. Settle, warden and chief medical officer; D r s . Robin Nicholas,
Richard Stamm, and Vanderstoep; Darlow Johnson, chief of
classification and parole; George Geil, clinical psychologist;
and Charles Keith.
That these persons are incompetent and, in all liklihood,
morally degenerate need not be said. The caliber of Civil
Service employees has never been noteworthy, considering
those Federal policies palatable only to subservient misfits.
The Department of Justice and the administration are a l ready aware of some of the aspects of this case and have
failed thus far to recognize complaints or to act in a manner
befitting men of courage and integrity. Neither Kennedy will
be benefitted by the aftermath of this case, politically.
Yours truly,
P h i l i p Seelig
My appeals on constitutional and Americanism issues before
the Supreme Court never had an iota of chance for traditional
American justice. The issues were doomed before they were
docketed and were buried in an ignoble judicial graveyard.
The Supreme Court and Justice Department no doubt pleased
the Kremlin. None of the B i l l of Rights issues nor the questions
of the constitutionality of the Communist-American psychiatric
were adjudicated on their legality.
The Kremlin Politburo Jurists in Moscow couldn't have buried
American Constitutional issues much deeper, nor with greater
contempt, than did the Supreme Court in Washington.
Intricate subterfuges of the Supreme Court, in collusive corruption of the Justice Department, undermined and destroyed my
appeals casts with fraud and hoax decisions handed down June 18,
1962.
It was the first case with the psychiatric politically explosive
issues to reach the Supreme Court for a judicial showdown. Not
until several years after my prison release did I learn the international implications that made Soviet psychiatry "untouchable"
in American courts.
After what I had experienced in Federal corruption, rigged
proceedings and Pavlovian torture techniques, it didn't surprise
me--but the Supreme Court and Justice Department deference to
the Kremlin and the United Nations was chilling!
It was obvious the American constitutional -Republic didn't exist anymore. It had been subverted into a cabal's subservient UN
socialism democracy for a World Government deceptively called
.The New Frontier Great Society.
The Supreme Court decisions, partially written by the Justice
Department, were only judicial "smoke-screens" to conceal the
collusi6n, the massive corruption, the demise of American sovereignty and the unpublicized precedence against adjudicating legality of legislation emanating from the UnitedNations.
Ignored by the Supreme Court were over 150 violations of the
B i l l of Rights, Articles of the Constitution and American Jurisprudence Codes. Conveniently by-passed were rulings on the illegal confiscation of vast files of evidence, the seizure of the
15

children, $60,000.00 in assets and property that included clothing and everything I owned--even to a birth certificate!
Also ignored were: action of the Los Angeles Federal Courts
where they had no jurisdiction; the "double jeopardy" prosecution;
rigged and corrupt proceedings; perjury; falsifying of documents;
and the penal torture of unusual pimishment inflicted.
None of the decisions were remotely related to the constitutional appeals issues, yet they gave the impression I had won my
appeals case--but not one decision was carried out!
Another precedence of infamy was established when the case
was remanded back to Los Angeles Federal courts where the Supreme Court decisions were invalidated and I was quickly 'freed.'
I was denied trial for alleged libel and a hearing on the illegal
psychiatric imprisonment.
Among the mandate decisions invalidated by Los Angeles F e d eral Judge Yankwich were vacating judgement, granting of C e r t i orari and forma pauperis.
The Justice Department's Solicitor General, Archibald Cox,
wrote the "joker" ruling that provided time for the invalidation of
the decisions and the rigging of the eighth proceeding in Judge
Yankwich's court allowing them to abruptly close the case and
free me--but first to give the psychiatrists at the penitentiary
ample time for Pavolovian torture techniques in the 10-D nerve
breaking .cell to "persuade" me to sign a contract with an "approved attorney, " withdraw all pending actions, then incapacitate
me, destroy my health, and deteriorate the mind and body!
Prior to the Supreme Court decisions. Judge Yankwich had i s sued an order to permanently silence me in the St. Elizabeth's
Federal Prison-Hospital for the criminally insane at Washington,
D, C. Failing that, he ordered my transfer to any state insane
asylum that would have me.
When I was freed, I did not know the seriousness of my condition. It was painful to walk, even a short distance. Nervous systems are so damaged that biological functions continue to deteriorate; eventually, a "natural death" occurs. I had become a walking corpse. There were months of medical treatment and convalescence while doctors worked to alleviate the danger.
Subsequently, I did considerable research to unravel the corruption that imprisoned me and tolearn what happened to the U.S.
Constitution and how the sovereignty had been eradicated.
The imprisonment was political expediency to silence me and
confiscate the evidence accumulated on homosexual and Communist perversion of government agencies, the judiciary and White
House.
There are at least 250 reasons why President Lyndon B . Johnson, Vice President Hubert Humphrey, Nicholas Katzenbach, Robert Kennedy, the Justice Department, the Department of Health,
Education, and Welfare, the Internal Revenue Service, former
California Governor Edmund Brown, State Supreme Court Justice
Stanley Mosk, Los Angeles County District Attorney Evelle Younger; his predecessor William McKesson; County Supervisor Warren Dorn; a mialtitude of County Superior Court judges, including
Edward R. Brand, Orlando Rhodes and Eugene Breightenbach; the
County Probation Department's K a r l Holton and Harold Muntz;

brutalities. The prisoners 'who took part in that so-called

riot, as well as many others only suspected of having taken
part in it, who were able to walk, were marched into the 10South yard, lined up against the back wall, shackled, and then
each was beaten into unconsciousness by the gviards who used
baseball bats, pipes, and clubs.
"This was an exemplary punishment (psychiatric therapy)
administered in full view of all the prisoners quartered in the
10-South prison wing as part of the educational program offered to the prisoners.
"One young prisoner who refused to participate in the riot
and remained co.nfined in his cell throughout the entire incident was ordered out of his cell by the guards who smashed
him to the floor with bats and pipes. The prisoner was then
ordered to stand up. Aftr he was beaten to the floor for the
third time, he lost consciousness and died. The causes of
this man's death received more 'doctoring' than his fatal
wounds."
The documents were filed in the Federal courts on June 2, 1964
and sworn to before notary Paul J . LaDow of Jackson, Michigan.
This "incident" occurred during the administration of President
Dwight D. Eisenhower and U, S. Attorney General Herbert Brow nell.
The petition was denied hearing and a redress of grievances
by Kansas City Federal Judge William H . Becker, who upheld the
right of the Justice Department to engage in prisoner atrocities
on the grounds: "No substantial question worthy of consideration
was presented."
Judge Becker further stated: "It is not the function of the Court
to involve itself in the regulation, treatment, or discipline of p r i soners or other matters of routine prison administration. "
Carey's petition pointed out: "The significance of using prisoners of the Medical Center for Federal Prisoners as human dogs
for Pavlovian experimentations in regards to the issues involved
in this case becomes pellucid when it is realized that a 'clear
mind cannot be brainwashed . , . '"
Judge Becker, by his rulings, disregarded human and civil
rights and upheld the savagery of Kremlin- created psychiatry.
Medical authority, idward Hunter, author of "Brainwashing,"
emphatically states:
"Decent humanity has not the.right to permit people to be
caught in a controlled environment and be made into guinea
pigs for ultimate dehumanization under a perverted Pavlovian
technique."
The disclosures I am noaking should alert millions of A m e r i cans on the deceptive criminality of the political powers forcing
totalitarian socialism with mental health policing of American
minds. It was treasonably spawned on the United States by Franklin Roosevelt and traitors in the State Department, including A l ger Hiss, during secret agreements with Soviet Premier Josef
Stalin and has been implemented by succeeding administrations.
Dr. Meerlow, medical law expert, warns Americans:
"In the totalitarian countries, where belief in Pavlovian
18

strategy has assumed grotesque proportions, the self-thinking, subjective man has disappeared. There is an utter r e jection of any attempt at persuasion or discussion. Individual self-expression is taboo. . . Peaceful exchange of thoughts
will disturb the conditioned reflexes and is therefore taboo.
No longer are there any brains, only conditioned patterns and
educated muscles. In such a taming system neurotic compulsion is looked upon as a positive asset instead of something pathological. The mental automaton becomes the ideal
education. "
Not only was I subjected to diabolical torture but I got the full
Pavlovian scientific "engineering" to induce a "natural death."
For the first time in my life I had heart attacks. Nerve systems
are so damaged under the intense pressure the biological functions continue to deteriorate after a prisoner is released from the
penitentiary. The Federal psychiatrists, just like in Communist
Russia, destroy prisoners without deaths occurring in prison or
showing any visible evidence--scientifically timed for after a prisoner has been freed!
I had five severe hemorrhages after I was freed. By the time
a doctor got to me I had very little piilse left. Xrays showed my
heart had been enlarged three times normal size.
For three
months I was in a private medical clinic. Much of the dannage
was alleviated, but I am still incapacitated and most of this book
was written in segments during the past four years. Very little
has' been edited or updated.
Throughout my imprisonment, no amount of torture, inhuman
cruelties and pain exceeded my grief for my little daughter and
son whose love, faith, and trust were always within me. In the
solitude of the dungeon-like drain-holes I felt the hotne^s of thei*
tears on my cheeks, the warmth of their little arms, as they pled
with me not to let the social service workers again take them, in
what was to be our last visit together. The love of the children
provided the incentive to survive the penitentiary psychiatric ordeals, the endurance and will to live, to continue fighting for my
freedom. But my children had no chance for a wholesome Christian life with me in prison.
Nothing shocks me anymore on the perversion, corruption, deceit, treason or tyranny of the most immoral White House administration the nation has ever known. My remaining free is only a
question of time in this socialistic democracy. It is likely, when
I am located again, I'll be quietly picked up--simply disappear
and not be heard from again. That is the way it is done in Communist Russia. It is not any different in a co-existence country.
Time is running out--not only for me but for. anyone reading
this book whose loyalty and allegiance is to the Republic and its
Constitution. It is no longer a "conspiracy" or a plan for a socialist conquest of the United States. It is fait accompli and this nation is now the captive of socialist anti-Christians.
The prison psychiatrists made clear it is dangerous for anyone with the temerity to oppose or dissent on the domestic and
foreign policies speeding Sovietized Socialism or to question the
constitutionality of legislatedUnitedNations ideologies. The least

19

anyone can expect is vilification of his character and attacks on

his mentality.
State and Federal courts, I experienced, cover up the corrupt
practices of other State and Federal courts. Government agencies destroy incriminating evidence, juggle the files and records;
conceal and eradicate criminal arrests, confine cases to court's
chambers in "kangaroo proceedings" and then get rid of the accusers and their witnesses.
Dr. Thomas L . Gore, the Los Angeles County Chief Psychiatrist, had been rigged in by Los Angeles U. S. Attorneys Laughlin and Francis Whalen (now a Federal Judge) and by the Justice
Department under directions of the Attorney General, Robert Kennedy, for perjury to declare me "insane." Gore has a criminal
record; he is a proven liar and imposter. Affidavits and sworn
statements on Gore were sent to the Los Angeles County Grand
Jury, the Federal Grand Jury, the Department of Justice, the
Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, County District Attorney's office, the County Superior Courts, and to the California
AttorneyGeneral, Stanley Mosk (now on the State Supreme Court).
No hearing has been allowed on Gore or the evidence against him;
State and Federal officials are silent.
The Justice Department covering up for Gore means hundreds
of persons in insane asylums and penal institutions cannot appeal
on the legality of their imprisonment. A Tennessee Medical E x aminer filed a sworn affidavit stating that Gore is a paranoid (insane)!
The disclosures on Gore's record were made by the DolanWhitney Detective Agency of Springfield, Massachusetts and Hartford, Conn. Dr. W . J . Core, Medical Examiner for Nashville and
Davidson County, Tennessee, stated in an affidavit that Gore was
not a doctor nor a psychiatrist when he was employed as an administrative superintendent at Davidson County Hospital. E x cerpts from the affidavit, Los Angeles County Superior Court,
file number 8349117:
"The Board of Hospital Commissioners selected Thomas
L . Gore . . . because of his alleged qualifications as an administrative man for the U. S. A r m y Medical Corps . . . not

atives of pictures of perverts involved; more than 40 letters

in the handwriting of the homosexuals which were damaging
not only to themselves, but revealed the nationwide organization of homosexuals.
Also among the files were names and addresses of all witnesses, with dates and places of incidents involving sexual
parties and immoral conduct in th^ presence of my children
and statements made by the foster mother that my daughter
had been sexually abused, as well as the children's doctor's
confirmation of this fact.
Prison Psychiatrist, Vanderstoep, told me "there is no place
to go in the world to escape the new social order. . . . you may as
well accept homosexuality for your children. You'll never see
them again. "
Disagreement or non-acceptance is diagnosed as-"rigidity of
the mind, " a sociopathic disorder. Psychiatrically defined, that
means "presently insane" in the opinion of the psychiatrists; prescribed to soften the "rigidity" is "punishment therapy" for "persuasive" mental health rehabilitation and that means proper thinking for the now social order of World Citizens!
What can anyone do against perverted minds in the Federal
government? The Justice Department, Department of Health, Education and Welfare and the Los Angeles County administration
agencies made certain there was nothing I could do. Psychologist
Nicholas, an executive aide to Warden Settle and Federal Bureau
of Prisons liason officer for the Justice Department, told me if I
refused to sign my children over to .the Los Angeles homosexuals
--Attorney General Robert Kennedy had the authority to sign my
name to any document he pleased. My children were signed over
to the perverts, but not by my consent or signature!
The homosexual, Walter Jenkins, was then top Presidential
Aide to Lyndon B . Johnson, who evidenced the same "friendship"
for homosexual Jenkins as F D R had for the child-molester. Undersecretary of State, homosexual Sumner Welles. Jenkins knew
I was in Springfield! With a perverted White House and similar
degenerates rampant in Federal agencies what chance did I or my
children have for anything decent or honorable?
Nine of the nearly fifteen months prior to the Supreme Court
decisions I was kept in torture drain-holes and most of the other
six months I was confined with mindless creatures. That made
me a prisoner guinea pig of the psychiatric sadists, Holmaii, N i chols, Stamm and Keith. Hordes of psychiatrists from Europe,
all trained in Communist psychiatry, are being brought into the
United States yearly. Like the Federal prison psychiatrists, they
are disciples of Sigmund Freud, the demented homosexual who
claimed persons averse to homosexuality and sodomy are "paranoids! "
Burger, Keith, Stamm and Nichols told me I was a "paranoid
with a rigid mind" that had to be broken. Freud, of course, is
one of their "gods." They are also devout students of the Soviet
psychiatric scientists, Ivan Petrovich, Pavlov, K . I . Plantonov,
M . Denisenke, G . Volborth, Y. Katkov, a n d A . R . Luria who created mental health psychiatry.

A person's m i n d , I have l e a r n e d and experienced, can and does
become numb to pain beyond the sense of feeling.
Being in a

adequate d e s c r i p t i o n . T h e r e w e r e months and months of absolute
solitude. I l i v e d within a v a c u u m of suspense on what m y fate
would be f r o m hour to hour. It was w o r s e than a captive a n i m a l
endures as a guinea pig i n an e x p e r i m e n t a l l a b o r a t o r y .
P r i s o n e r s s t r i p p e d nude i n the drain-holes a r e denied m e d i c a tion for i n j u r i e s , i l l n e s s , or i n f e c t i o n s . In the K r e m l i n manual

scabs f o r m and harden. The shoe t o r t u r e was "therapy" for r e jecting obedience on p r e s c r i b e d t h i n k i n g .

for water. Many t i m e s they were not c r i e s but s c r e a m s f r o m
u n m e r c i f u l beatings. That was m o r e "therapy. "
The public has no way of knowing about the F e d e r a l M e d i c a l
Center and its operations. A "tight s e c u r i t y " conceals the i n h u m a n c r i m i n a l i t y that i s hidden w i t h i n its p r i s o n w a l l s .
A n i m a l - l i k e obedience i s expected, but i f p r i s o n e r s a r e too

Brush factory workers are paid on a piece-work basis. When
their earnings reach forty dollars a month, the daily quota output
is raised! It means less earnings and more work to maintain an
increasingly higher quota--Soviet style!
Prison guards administer the punishment, supervised by the
psychiatrists. Brutalities, cruelties and torture are applied under the guise of therapy. The Greene County Bar Association has
an agreement with the Federal Bureau of Prisons: Member lawyers will not take a suit for damages against the penitentiary personnel; nor will they institute proceedings calling for prosecution
of psychiatrists or guards for torture or brutality.
Prisoners who came from other Federal penal institutions told
me the same conditions exist in all Federal prisons. Psychiatrists establish policing control over mind and body. In training
for psychopolitical "mental health" the prisoners are referred to
as a "captive population. "
A high ratio of alleged prison insanity is artificially created.
Psychiatrists put sane prisoners, serving sentences, on "status,"
i . e. psychiatrically i l l . For example, a prisoner who objects to
working conditions, complains of brutality, or who violates p r i son rules, is put on "status." He is labeled under this "insanity
status" until he submits to the standards established by the psychiatrists for his "thinking behavior and conduct. " This insanity
record stays with him the rest of his life. When he has served
his sentence, or is freed on parole or on a conditional release,
his record shows a "mental incompetency" background. The record can be "used against him" at will, by any Government agency.
The Medical Center is the only known Federal penitentiary
used to imprison defendants without a trial or a conviction of an
offense. The Veterans' Administration does not recognize the
Medical Center as a hospital. This fact is partially evidenced in
a letter to Dock P. Glenn, an unconvicted prisoner, in which he
is denied pension benefits on the grounds that pension cannot be
paid to a veteran while he's in prison. Glenn has served 10 years
without a trial for an offense. Following is the letter:
''Veterans Administration

M r . Dock P. Glenn
P . O . Box 4000
Springfield, Mo.
Dear M r . Glenn:
"Your claim for service connected disability was considered
and disallowed and you were advised of the decision reached
by our letter to you of March 2, 1945. (Note how long ago! )
"You are not entitled to non-service connected pension benefits at the present time as you have been imprisoned over 60
days and pension cannot be paid to a veteran while he is in
prison.

"Your claim may be re-opened when you are discharged or

released from the prison, if you will advise us when you are
released.
Very truly yours,
T . R . McConnell,
Adjudication Officer"
Untold hundreds of young medical school graduates have been
indoctrinated in Communist psychiatry and socialist ideologies at
Federal prisons. They are also being trained at selected schools
under Federally-financed mental health programs and by tax-exexempt foundation grants.
The public reads and hears managed news propaganda glorifying humanitarian legislation for "equality rights for all minorities. " The managed news distortionists ballyhoo" mental health,
psychiatry and psychologists--but do not tell of the brutality, torture and atrocities or that human beings are being used as guinea
pigs for experiments in thought control and brainwashing.
Nor do the government psychopoliticians or their agencies divulge that the Great Society's humanitarian "persuasive therapy"
maims and kills prisoners, or that minds are impaired, or destroyed.
The American Psychiatric Association on May 5, 1964, was
instructed by Dr. Jack R. Ewalt, superintendent of the Massachusetts Mental Health Center in Boston, that "even the mentally
sound who are against mental health and psychiatry are more deviate than many ambulatory schizophrenics. "
Dr. Ewalt questioned what should be done about people who are
not "mentally i l l " but have "little control over their aggressiveness. " He warned the psychiatrists they are irresponsible when
they certify such people are not mentally i l l .
Answers may be found in the statements of D r . Alfred Auerback, associate clinical professor of psychiatry at the University
of California, and by President Johnson.
Dr. Auerback told the nation's psychiatrists "the hard-core
right-wing' of American patriots impute "evil intent on psychiatry
and mental health workers. "
F r o m out of the Kremlin psychiatry manual, documented in
Congressional archives, is this instruction:
"Should any whisper, or parnphlet, against psychopolitical
(psychiatry) activities be published, it should be laughed into
scorn, branded as an immediate hoax, and its purpetrators
or publisher branded as insane. "
President Johnson, in venting his hatred for opponents of Great
Society socialism ideologies, publicly vowed that Federal agencies will liquidate the anti-communist conservative patriots whom
he condemned as "extremists and lunatics. "
Johnson followed the Kremlin and United Nations line in his
1965 State of the Union message by stating, "one out of every ten
Americans is mentally i l l . "' Johnson admitted that 1,600 European doctors, reportedly trained in Communist psychiatry, were
brought into the United States in 1964. He said 10, 000 more are
needed to man the mental health centers and the psychiatric p r i sons being constructed.
Over two billion dollars have been appropriated in recent yean
to establish new psychiatric "prisons in the 50 states with targe

He told me of his s o r d i d background and of a F e d e r a l p s y c h i a t r i c

Who else would know better than P r o t h m a n , since it c l e a r e d

A c c o r d i n g to P r o t h m a n , anyone who knows the "right l i b e r a l

P r o t h m a n confided his attorney had the "right connections"
and, since $3,000 was "chicken feed" to h i m , he was only too happy to give it to the defense attorney. The " p s y c h i a t r i c g i m m i c k "
I was told, r e q u i r e s a "contact" i n the U . S . A t t o r n e y ' s office.
A "deal" (it's c a l l e d a "plea") is made that the defendant is
"too mentally i l l , " with an "undefinable p s y c h i a t r i c emotional ailment, " to go on t r i a l .

Prothman said it was fixed for his transfer to a Missouri state

mental health institution where he'd spend one night and be freed
the next morning as psychiatrically cured, so he could get back
to the perversion business.
It meant Medical Center psychiatric staff collusion in declaring that Prothman was too "mentally i l l " to face trial on criminal
charges. Under the Federal statutes, criminal charges are dismissed against "mental incompetents. "
And that is exactly what happened. Prothman, before he left
Springfield, gave me his Kansas City home address as 4618 North
Kenwood and his telephone number.
Another prisoner with whom I became acquainted was Marvin..
About 40 years old now, Marvin was arrested by a U . S . Marshal
while unloading cargo on an Alaska dock. He said he never was
told why he was arrested and still doesn't know the charges filed
against him. Instead of a hearing or an arraignment, said Marvin, he was transported to the Springfield penitentiary.
For 15 years, seven days a week without a penny of pay, he
has pushed a heavy trash cart around and around the tunnels. He
was still there when I left, wondering When he'll ever get a trial
for an alleged offense he doesn't know anything about. The p r i son psychiatrists periodically certify him as "insane.
Another unconvicted psychiatric slave was Orville Coates* P 237. F o r five years, seven days a week he mopped and swept the
tunnels. He was among the prisoners for whom I wrote petitions
for Writ of Habeas Corpus that got them released from the p r i son. Writing a writ for a prisoner is a "crime" at the prison; for
aiding Coates the psychiatrists hustled me to a solitary confinement drain-hole as "punishment therapy. " But it got Coa+es back
to his Kentucky home town.
Other victims of mental health psychiatry include:
Marvin Lesky of northern California. Three years no trial or
conviction. He was in penal servitude painting tunnel walls and
offices and the outside woodwork of ten prison buildings. He may
still be there.
Hogan, a former labor union official in the construction field;
Five years without trial or conviction. Hogan, with some wealth,
managed to get a message out of the prison. He said he was a r rested by a U . S. Marshal for interstate transportation of his own
tools! The Justice Department gave out a "managed news story"
that Hogan was a "forgotten man" in prison on a "mix up" of records. But when Hogan told the psychiatrists he was going to expose them as frauds and had the money to do it, the Justice Department seized his funds and ordered him confined to a Springfield "rest home. "
Brown, P-470. His back was broken by electro-shock therapy
when the electric current was turned on although he had told attendants the straps holding him on the roller table were loose.
His back was placed in a cast but, instead of being confined to the
prison's hospital floor for medical attention, he was returned to
Ward 2-2 West. Brown was having severe pain and I walked with
him to the guards where he pleaded for a doctor. The guards
said the doctors were at a party and he'd have to wait until the
next day. In the morning Brown was found dead in his, cell.

W h i l e w a i t i n g for the elevator i n the tunnel, a half dozen p r i soners and I watched three guards drag an unconvicted p r i s o n e r ,

came out of t h e i r offices and watched Poncho beaten into s e m i consciousness .

begged the p r i e s t not to let the p s y c h i a t r i s t s t u r n h i m into a mindr

Homosexual Power in Cabal Government

Surfaces Politically-Stacked Courts
The U . S. Justice Department, California State officials, the
Federal and County Grand Juries of Los Angeles knew I was enroute to Los Angeles from Washington and-that I was traveling by
Highway 66. By letters to all, and by public statements, I had informed them I would not stand for further stalling or denial of
hearings on my evidence of the homosexual perversion corruption
in Los Angeles County administrative agencies and courts. For
more than a year I had been denied knowledge of the whereabouts
of my daughter and son.
I had evidence and witnesses the children had been exposed to
homosexual degenerates. My little daughter was sexually abused
and both my son and daughter were in the hands of the perverts.
The Juvenile Court of Santa Monica and Judge Edward Brand r e fused to allow hearing of witnesses or evidence of it. He also
refused to submit it to the Los Angeles County Grand Jury. When
I tried my efforts were blocked. I requested Judge Louis Burke,
then presiding judge of the Superior Courts, to put the case before the Grand Jury. He refused on grounds that he'd not subject
Judge Brand or the Probation Department to investigation. Since
then Governor Brown has appointed Burke as a Justice on the
California. State Supreme Court.
A tight hush was being maintained on the homosexual perversion corruption conditions in Los Angeles County. The political
influence of both liberall Democrats and Republicans was more
than obvious. But two little children were at stake and I had no
intention of giving up.
My persistent demand for action by the Justice Department on
their denial of due process of law in behalf of my children was
climaxed in my being arrested in Clovis, New Mexico, where I
had gone into the Post Office to the General Delivery window to
pick up forwarded m a i l on December 2, I960. A deputy U . S.
marshal, named White, from Amarillo, stepped up and took me
into custody for mailing alleged libelous matter in Texas concerning the p e r v e r s i o n charges I had been making for nearly
three years against Los Angeles County officials and judges of
33

the Santa M o n i c a S u p e r i o r C o u r t s . F o r more than two years hearings had been denied on those charges and none of those officials
had d a r e d to charge me with l i b e l . But now my F e d e r a l a r r e s t
took the "heat off" the C a l i f o r n i a homosexuals, the State and L o s
A n g e l e s County D e m o c r a t i c a d m i n i s t r a t i o n officials and judges.
M y l a s t letter, m a i l e d a few days p r i o r to m y a r r e s t , posted
f r o m A m a r i l l o , follows:
" M r . Laughlin Waters, U . S . Attorney,
Los Angeles, California
" S i r : I have just l e a r n e d that M r s . C a l Watts, 1709 B r i g don Road, Pasadena, foster mother, f r o m whose home Sand r a and E d w a r d Seelig, m i n o r s , had been i l l e g a l l y s e i z e d ,

' d o c t o r i n g ' court e n t r i e s , died of a heart attack s h o r t l y after
I left L o s Angeles this past s u m m e r .
" M r s . Watts had also made charges against M r s . G l o r i a
B u s c h , M r s . M a r y L o u i s e R y m a l and the homosexuals and
was refused hearings by Judge B r a n d . She would have t e s t i fied against the homosexuals and the p e r v e r t e d s o c i a l s e r v i c e w o r k e r s i f she could have had a hearing on the c r i m e s
she knew about.
" L a s t September, on my r e t u r n to L o s A n g e l e s , P r o b a t i o n
Officer J a m e s D i s c o e was 'gagged' and not allowed to see me,
talk to m e , or appear at any h e a r i n g ; a l l i n v o l v e d had left the
city so that they could not be subpoenaed.
" T h e r e i s c r i m i n a l c o n s p i r a c y between State and County
officials with o r g a n i z e d homosexual attorneys to c o v e r - u p ,
suppress the fraud, c o r r u p t i o n and c r i m e s , and i t has been
evidenced by the refusal and blocking of hearings on those
c r i m e s for two and a helf y e a r s .
" H o m o s e x u a l attorneys c l a i m that an a c c u s e r i s ' e m o t i o n a l l y d i s t u r b e d ' - - ' m a k i n g r i d i c u l o u s charges Which were i m a g i n e d ' - - o r that he is a ' m e n t a l case who should be h o s pitalized. '
" O r g a n i z e d homosexuals c o n t r o l C a l i f o r n i a G o v e r n m e n t ,
and L o s Angeles County. The J u s t i c e department has had
ample evidence of this as w e l l as the v i o l a t i o n of c i v i l rights
and due p r o c e s s of law by the preventing of h e a r i n g s . " W e n d e l l Stanton, A s s i s t a n t U . S. A t t o r n e y i n P i t t s b u r g h , a y e a r
and a half ago s a i d this case should go before the F e d e r a l
G r a n d J u r y i n L o s A n g e l e s , because it was a c r i m i n a l case.
"Why is the J u s t i c e Department i g n o r i n g the homosexual
p e r v e r s i o n of government and the j u d i c i a r y ? "
A l s o , I was p u b l i c l y demanding that the death of M r s . Watts
be investigated for the r e a s o n that the two p e r v e r t e d L o s A n g e l e s
County S o c i a l S e r v i c e w o r k e r s knew of her heart condition when
they created a disturbance i n her home to seize m y daughter and
son without a court o r d e r or hearing on it. M r s . Watts' death
was not the only induced heart attack i n the h i s t o r y of the h o m o sexual case! T h e r e w e r e many other reasons why the homosexuals, C a l i f o r n i a S t a t e and F e d e r a l officials would want me
silenced.

Instead of arraigning me or allowing a preliminary hearing in

a New Mexico Federal Court, U . S . l^^rshal White picked up my
luggage and sped me by auto back to Amarillo, Texas. On the
way he told me there was a nationwide search underway along my
route westward and a dragnet to prevent me from reaching C a l i fornia. He also said about fifty officers were about to make a
house to house search for me in Clovis when I went into the Post
Office. It had cost the American taxpayers thousands of dollars
to stop me from reaching California! When we got to Amarillo,
U . S . Marshal White booked me on an "open charge" in the Potter
County Jail.
A week after my arrest, U. S. Marshal White took me to his
office where he made a longdistance call t o U . S. Attorney William
West in Fort Worth. For about fifteen minutes U . S. Attorney
West discussed my case with me. I told him nothing I hadwritten
was libelous and I had more than enough evidence, affidavits, pictorial proof and about 40 pervert letters. I asked him if my trial
could be transferred to Los Angeles. He said it was impossible
because he was asking the Federal Grand Jury for an indictment
charging me with mailing libelous matter in the Northern District
of Texas. That meant my trial could only be held in the Texas
Federal District Courts.
West told me the Department of Justice wanted the libel trial
in Amarillo. I asked him if I could appear before the Grand Jury
with my evidence. I told him I had other evidence and material I
believed the Grand Jury should see.
He said it would be arranged, asked me to send him a statement on the background of the case, list the documents, affidavits,
pictorial proof and what I had on organized homosexuals in government. He told me he would order White to have my typewriter
in my jail cell, give me the files and what I needed from my luggage. Before I returned the phone to White, I told West I had
been subjected to maltreatment in the jail, a starvation diet of
one meal a day, kept in a cockraoch infested cell and I was not
allowed to mail letters to friends or relatives. West told me he
would have White check into it. (sic. )
White had me moved to a cleaner cell, sent over the typewriter, the files and a duplicate set of photocopies of documents,
affidavits by witnesses, pictorial proof and letters from Los A n geles County Officials which substantiated the perversion influence
charges. I typed a 20-page statement, naming witnesses, giving
addresses and enclosed in the large envelope the duplicate set of
photocopies.
Several weeks later, on the morning of January 2, 1961, an
attorney named Reynold Gardner came to see me. He was the
first lawyer I was allowed to speak with. Most of his business
came from the county jail. I told county jail officials to pay him
$100. 00 from my funds to get me into court on a writ of habeas
corpus. I had not been arraigned or given a preliminary hearing
nor made a court appearance for more than thirty days. I also
authorized him to take custody of my property and send it to my
relatives. That was the last I saw of Attorney Gardner! That is
how the Justice Department keeps a political prisoner in a vise.
A few hours later jail deputies and county officials came to my
35

c e l l , c o n f i s c a t e d m y t y p e w r i t e r , evidence files and m a t e r i a l .

Conley, a j a i l official, looked at some of the p e r v e r t p i c t u r e s and
photocopies of affidavits; tore them up and told me I would not be
needing them. The o r i g i n a l s were i n m y luggage i n the U . S.
M a r s h a l ' s office.
On the fourth day I was taken to the office of D r . Robert W.
R a z o r , an a d m i n i s t r a t i v e executive of the h o s p i t a l . He was s u r p r i s e d when I a s k e d why I was there. He gave me a copy of the
A m a r i l l o F e d e r a l C o u r t o r d e r , signed by Judge Joe Dooley. It
was a committment for a sanity examination for 30 days. U . S .
A t t o r n e y West had obtained the o r d e r on his "opinion" and that of
a p o s t a l i n s p e c t o r . I was "insane" on the basis of what I had
written.

follows:

The proceedings violate multiple constitutional rights, Rules

of Court Procedures and disregard prior U. S. Supreme Court
precedent rulings on tyranny imprisonments being unconstitutional in denying civil rights. Violated at the January 3rd proceedings were:
The 6th Amendment: "In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall . . . be informed of the nature and cause of the
accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him
and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense. "

***
"That one's rights may not be litigated without his authority
is an inherent right guaranteed by the 'due process of law'
clause of the Fifth Amendment. " (Const. Mont. art. 3, 27. )

***
Martin v. Settle, U . S . Supreme Court, 192 F . Supp. 156. . .
"A full hearing for an accused at which he has a right to be
present. The committing court has the power of determination of the accused's incompetence, and that duty cannot be
discharged with the accused in absentia. "

***
Rule
. . .
Riile
sel .

43 for Federal Courts: "The defendant shall be present

at every stage of the trial (proceedings). "
44: " . . . the court shall advise him his right to coun. . to represent him at every stage of the proceedings.

***
The confiscation violated the 4th Amendment: "The right of
the people to be secure . . . against seizures shall not be
violated. " The Federal Medical Center seizing and keeping
my office supplies, expensive books and other items, violated the 5th Amendment: " . . . nor shall private property be
taken for public use without just compensation. "
According to law, it is a criminal offense for anyone, not qualified or licensed, to engage in medical practice. But it would be
too much in a tyranny democracy to expect Government Executive
cheats, liars, scoundrels and traitors when they get into political
power to comply with constitutional law. Neither the Kennedys
nor the Johnson riff-raff in the White House and cabinet do--any
more than Fort Worth U . S. Attorney West did. West and the
Post Office inspectors are laymen without medical qualifications
or training, yet they assumed medical pracitce as experts in stating their "opinion" on my mental competence.
U . S . Senator Robert Kennedy directed U . S . Attorney West's
medical criminality and common thievery in confiscating my funds
and assets, my property and files of evidence, violating the 4th
Amendment: "The right of the people to be secure . . . against
seizures. " In less than a month Kennedy and his minions were
proven incompetent and liars. The Federal hospital-prison medical board found me saner than the Boston shanty-bred Kennedys,
more competent, and with a higher IQ. D r . Razor and four other
medical examiners had given me every conceivable type of m e n tality test, examination, interviews and cross examination with
psychological tests daily.
38

Not only did U. S. Attorney West criminally libel me but compounded that criminality with corruption in the Amarillo Federal
Court. Robert Kennedy and Katzenbach's Justice Department,
through their hatchetman, West, had followed the Communist psychiatric prosecution doctrine:
"An immediate attack upon the sanity of the attacker, before
any possible hearing can take place, is the very best defense
. . . the person to be destroyed must be given a stigma record of insanity. "
As I was an accuser of homosexuality in government, the Justice Department also followed the line of homosexual attorneys
that accusers "imagine" homosexuals are perverts, that accusers
are "mentally i l l . "
The federal hospital social service director, Arthur Berliner,
told me the former director of the hospital. D r . Nier, had testified in 1950 at a U. S. Senate Committee hearing that homosexuals
in the federal .hospital service were an evil and that poimcal pressure prevented him from getting rid of the perverts.
When I told Berliner my suitcase had documents and evidence
items overlooked in the confiscation, we went to the hospital storage room. He read the affidavits of witnesses and other material.
He reported to the medical board what he saw and confirmed my
charges. A few days later I appeared before the medical board.
Dr. Parkhurst said Los Angeles County officials had written letters to the board stating my charges were "delusional. " I asked
him if Judge Edward Brand had also written. It was admitted
that Judge Brand's letter said my charges were false. The letter
also said atany time I had established a home he would have given
me custody. I told the board Brand had lied. Three times I had
homes ready, but Judge Brand favored the perverts. Berliner
spoke up and said he saw the proof.
On February 4, 1961, I was returned to Potter County Jail to
await trial. U.S. Attorney West, on January 13, had obtained F e d eral Grand Jury indictments charging me with committing a postal offense in the Northern District of Texas.
The indictment was specific:
"That on or about the 24th day of November, I960, in Potter
County, Texas, in the Amarillo Division of the Northern D i s trict of Texas, F R E D E R I C K SEELIG did unlawfully and knowingly deposit and cause to be deposited in the United States
mails at the UnitedStates PostOffice at Amarillo, Texas, for
mailing and delivery, certain non-mailable matter. "
U. S. Attorney West, who followed orders from Robert Kennedy,
as the Justice Department Attorney General, had obtained the i n dictment without allowing me to appear before the Federal Grand
Jury with evidence damaging to the Government that would have
dismissed the alleged libel charges. Robert Kennedy and Katzenbach are infamous using grand juries in their corruption to smear,
slander and discredit other victims of arrests on charges they
ne-vf-r
had any intention of bring^ing to trial.
In my case, Kennedy and his Justice Department, when they
were beaten in Texas on a mentality action against me, went on to
falsify documents with rigged proceedings to transport me to Cal39

ifornia, violating the B i l l of Rights and Articles of the Constitution more than 100 times to imprison me on a "double jeopardy"
insanity charge after I had been found sane and competent.
On my return to the Potter County Jail, deputies told me U. S.
Marshal White had said I would not be given a trial until the F a l l
T e r m of court, six months hence. It would be in violation of the
Fifth Amendment, but there would never be a trial--for I'd likely
be a corpse from maltreatment!
A n affidavit, filed a year later, January, 1962, in the U. S. Supreme Court (Case No. 841 Misc. ) discloses:
"I was kept awake nights by deputies periodically hitting the
steel wall of my cell. For several weeks I was kept in a
cockroach infested cell which had a filthy mattress and a dirty
blanket. It was winter. The windows were kept open. It
caused an infection to develop in my chest. But one meager
meal was served daily. I lost 30 pounds in a month. On my
return from the federal hospital after being found sane I was
not allowed to shave for days. Letters I wrote for mailing to
friends and relatives were not mailed.
"In early February, 1961, other prisoners and I heard the
pleading cries of a prisoner who had deliberately broken his
parole because he did not have money to buy medicine r e quired to keep him alive. It was necessary for him to take
the medicine every four hours. It was refused him. He died.
His blanket-covered body lay on the floor for hours. That
night an ambulance picked up his body and took it to a hospital.
"The next day we read in the Amarillo newspapers a story
saying he had died shortly after arrival at the hospital of a
heart attack. It was a false story. "
Clean clothing was no longer permitted me on my return from
the Fort Wprth Federal Hospital on February 4. 1961.
Because
U.S. Marshal White had also taken my funds at the iail, I was
even prevented from buying sandwiches from my jailers to supplement the starvation diet. Improperly cooked food caused many
prisoners to have headaches, but we were given aspirins instead
of food. We could have all the aspirins we wanted!
I penciled a letter to Judge Dooley requesting a speedy trial
and asked if I could transfer the case to Los Angeles for a trial.
The letter was given to the marshal. He passed it on to U. S. Attorney Hughes, J r . , who gave it to Judge Dooley. Previously,
U.S. Attorney West told me a trial could not be held in Los A n geles. The Sixth Amendment mandates: "Public trial in the State
and District where a person is indicted. "
My letter to Judge Dooley complained that Attorney Gardner
had been paid a hundred dollars to obtain a habeas corpus hearing for me and I had requested him to ship my property to relatives; but Gardner had taken my typewriter to his home. Judge
Dooley ordered the $150. 00 typewriter returned to U. S. Marshal
White but allowed Gardner to keep the hundred dollars as "legal
fee" for his ten-minute visit with me in the jail, for which no services were performed.

Frederick Selig, Defendant
Robert Page Smith
Attorney for Defendant
The falsification of that motion is obvious and evidences how
a document can be made into a fraud by a Justice Department "approved" court-appointed "defense attorney. "
In A p r i l , 1962, at the federal penitentiary, in answer to a memorandum to the U. S. Supreme Court, filed by U. S. Solicitor Genr
eral Archibald Cox, I exposed falsities of the memorandum, the
Amarillo transfer motion, and how the proceedings had been
rigged:
"Petitioner is a layman, without access to a law library,
and therefore must rely on the court.
"He is unable to submit transcripts, copies of essential
doc\mients of other material essential, and his evidence, in
his behalf, because ne has been denied leave to proceed in
forma pauperis to obtain them and the transcripts of proceedand copies of essential documents. Those transcripts would
show irregularities, disregard of his constitutional rights and
violations of court rules.
"In Amarillo, defendant was not present or represented by
counsel. He did not know proceedings had been held to condemn him unto after he was in the U, S. Public Health Service
hospital prison. There he was found sane and competent by
the hospital medical board.
"The Department of Justice raises the point: whether petitioner should be accorded rights guaranteed by the U . S.
Constitution and the Rules of the Court, for the reason he had
been declared mentally incompetent and that he could not understand the proceedings against him or to assist in his
defense.
42

" P e t i t i o n e r had been found sane and he finds no p r o v i s i o n

i n Section 4244 w h i c h excludes rights gtiaranteed by the Constitution.
The Department of J u s t i c e does not d i s c l o s e the
sanity findings w e r e concealed and s u p p r e s s e d or that p e t i tioner i s s t i l l denied a copy of the sanity r e p o r t .
"The Department of J u s t i c e asks d e t e r m i n a t i o n whether
proceedings were p r o p e r l y t r a n s f e r r e d f r o m T e x a s to C a l i f o r n i a . The t r a n s c r i p t s of the p r o c e e d i n g s , the t r a n s f e r m o tion and i n d i c t m e n t w i l l d i s c l o s e i r r e g u l a r i t i e s ; d i s r e g a r d of
rights and v i o l a t i o n s of statutes. P e t i t i o n e r signed the m o tion i n t r u s t and faith that A t t o r n e y S m i t h had p r e p a r e d a true
and c o r r e c t document. It was not a t r u e document.
" T h e questions a r e : (1) W h y d i d A t t o r n e y S m i t h draw up a
faulty and false m o t i o n i f he r e a d the i n d i c t m e n t ? (2) Why
didn't U . S. A s s i s t a n t A t t o r n e y Hughes object on the grounds

That o r d e r does not mention R u l e 21B or R u l e 20. The i n d i c t ment d i d not charge an offense i n Southern C a l i f o r n i a , but the D e partment of J u s t i c e r i g s i n courtappointed defense attorneys
without s c r u p l e s o r ethics to s e r v e c o r r u p t i p u r p o s e s . The m o t i o n
to t r a n s f e r was faked to get me into another f e d e r a l d i s t r i c t so
that p s y c h i a t r i c p r o s e c u t i o n could be r e s u m e d . It was p o l i t i c a l l y
expedient to protect the D e m o c r a t i c A d m i n i s t r a t i o n , C a l i f o r n i a
officials and the Kennedys f r o m p e r v e r s i o n scandal; to c o v e r up
the c r i m i n a l i t y of the o r g a n i z e d homosexuals i n the Kennedy p o l i t i c a l m a c h i n e and the m u l t i p l e thousands of degenerates on f e d e r a l
payrolls.
A few days after the t r a n s f e r o r d e r was granted, a U . S. m a r s h a l p i c k e d m e up at the county j a i l . I was s h a c k l e d i n chains and
handcuffs and sped by auto to the c i t y j a i l at A l b e r q u e r q u e , New
M e x i c o . T h e r e I w a i t e d five days u n t i l another f e d e r a l m a r s h a l
came to t r a n s p o r t me to L o s A n g e l e s . I was fundless. The c i t y
j a i l p r i s o n e r s gave m e candy b a r s to eat and loaned m e a safety
r a z o r so I could shave. T h e y a l s o s h a r e d sandwiches brought to
t h e m by f r i e n d s . The j a i l menu had only w i e n e r s for breakfast,
l u n c h and supper, w i t h two p i e c e s of b r e a d .
On the m o r n i n g of the s i x t h day, a U . S . m a r s h a l , w i t h s e v e r a l
other p r i s o n e r s destined for L o s A n g e l e s , came for m e . We w e r e
lodged i n the county j a i l at P h o e n i x , A r i z o n a , overnight. The j a i l
was o v e r c r o w d e d . We slept on the f l o o r . T h e food s e r v e d was
too unwholesome to eat.
The next m o r n i n g we continued to L o s A n g e l e s . We a r r i v e d the
evening of M a r c h 1, and I was taken to L o s A n g e l e s County J a i l ,
then put i n a l a r g e r e c e p t i o n r o o m c r o w d e d w i t h about 200 p r i s o n ers w a i t i n g to be booked. We stood for 30 h o u r s . The only food
given us w e r e s e v e r a l cheese sandwiches and some coffee. A f t e r
the 30 hours we were booked, taken to an i d e n t i f i c a t i o n r o o m to
be f i n g e r p r i n t e d numerous t i m e s , and then "mugged. " P l a s t i c
bands with county j a i l numbers w e r e s e a l e d on our w r i s t s . M y
number was 761-818.
We were then taken to a l a r g e shower r o o m and s p r a y e d w i t h a
disinfectant and p h y s i c a l l y i n s p e c t e d for n a r c o t i c s or contraband
we might have i n our h a i r , between our legs or i n our mouths.
Our t r o u s e r s w e r e n u m b e r e d and checked i n a clothing p r o p e r t y
r o o m . J a i l c o v e r a l l s w e r e given us to w e a r and we w e r e taken to
a m e d i c a l r o o m w h e r e blood s a m p l e s w e r e taken f r o m our a r m s .
F r o m there we went to a m a t t r e s s and blanket storage r o o m .
E a c h p r i s o n e r c a r r i e d a m a t t r e s s and blanket to t h e i r a s s i g n e d
j a i l tanks. I was put i n tank 1 2 - B and a s s i g n e d to a c e l l built for
two p r i s o n e r s . I was the eighth. The other seven w e r e B l a c k
M u s l i m s who hated C a u c a s i o n s .
The M u s l i m s made it c l e a r to me I was to stay out of the c e l l
except when a l l p r i s o n e r s w e r e o r d e r e d into c e l l s w h i l e the c e ment floor was w a t e r e d for m o p p i n g . F o u r to five t i m e s d a i l y
the floor was soaked with w a t e r and mopped.
Obscene and profane language, threats of beatings unless I
stayed out of the c e l l , was what I l i v e d w i t h . P r i s o n e r s w a s h e d
t h e i r clothes i n the t o i l e t b o w l s . About ten j a i l t r u s t i e s w e r e i n
charge of the tank with a profitable r a c k e t . T h e y took the meat
out of stews and other food s e r v i n g s . In the evening they made
45

sandwiches they sold to p r i s o n e r s for 25 cents each. The t r u s t i e s

said they would move me into a m o r e pleasant c e l l but it would
cost me a d o l l a r a day. I slept on the cement floor atop a soggy
m a t t r e s s soaked by the mopping water.
M y socks, underwear, and dress s h i r t had rotted off me. The
U . S . m a r s h a l refused to send over clothing replacement or what
funds r e m a i n e d of the n e a r l y four hundred d o l l a r s I had when a r rested. T h e r e was no accounting given of it. I could not buy c i g arettes, candy, food or a r a z o r and blades. Unconvicted p r i s o n ers a r e not segregated f r o m the convicted or hardened c r i m i n a l s .
M o s t of them were two and three time " l o s e r s . " The unconvicted,
who had no c r i m i n a l b a c k g r o u n d e r r e c o r d s , were at their m e r c y .
The felons looked upon r e t u r n to " j o i n t s " (prisons) as "going
home." M e a l s were s e r v e d twice d a i l y . M o s t of the t i m e the food
was s l o p s . I was not a l l o w e d messages out of the j a i l . L e t t e r s I
wrote for m a i l i n g were turned over to the U . S. m a r s h a l . None
were m a i l e d .
When I was a r e p o r t e r and news editor I had respect for U . S.
A t t o r n e y s and the J u s t i c e Department. I also b e l i e v e d the United
States was one of the few countries i n the w o r l d where f e d e r a l
p r i s o n e r s were not m a l t r e a t e d or subjected to tyranny and b r u t a l i t y . The public has no way of knowing. Managed news and
"accomodating" newspapers a r e the reason. I was experiencing
and witnessing how p r i s o n e r s are c r u e l l y m i s t r e a t e d and d e m o r a l i z e d with unwholesome food, starvation diet, inhuman l i v i n g
conditions, p s y c h o l o g i c a l p r e s s u r e s and i n t i m i d a t i o n to induce
them to plead guilty.
It i s w o r s e for a p r i s o n e r h e l d i n the v i s e of a p o l i t i c a l party's
t y r a n n i c a l " p o l i c e p o w e r . " The U . S. A t t o r n e y s , under R o b e r t
Kennedy's J u s t i c e Department a d m i n i s t r a t i o n i n L o s A n g e l e s , I
learned, r e s o r t to c o r r u p t p r o s e c u t i o n methods comparable to the
tyranny and p e r s e c u t i o n i n C o m m u n i s t and F a s c i s t p r i s o n e r j a i l ing s.
Intimidation and inhuman j a i l c r u e l t i e s failed to induce me to
plead guilty. The federal attorneys r e s u m e d the C o m m u n i s t and
homosexual line that a c c u s e r s a r e "insane" with the same c o r ruption I e x p e r i e n c e d i n the p e r v e r s i o n of L o s A n g e l e s County
agencies and c o u r t s .
The C o m m u n i s t p s y c h i a t r i c p r o s e c u t i o n doctrine c a l l s for dest r o y i n g the reputation, effectiveness and c r e d i b i l i t y of an a c c u s e r
by attacking his sanity. I was held i n j a i l for 84 days before I
appeared i n the A m a r i l l o , Texas court. I was denied a t r i a l and
was h e l d without b a i l being a l l o w e d . It violated the Sixth A m e n d ment.
In A m a r i l l o I was threatened with 182 m o r e days i n j a i l before
I could have a t r i a l . It was intended to maneuver me into a r e quest for speedy t r i a l by transfer to L o s A n g e l e s . The transfer
motion was f a l s i f i e d by the court-appointed attorney.
Meanwhile, P r e s i d e n t Kennedy was making emotional and h y s t e r i c a l pleas for new c i v i l rights and mental health p s y c h i a t r y
l e g i s l a t i o n . The h y p o c r i s y and deception of the Kennedys was exemplified i n A m a r i l l o and L o s Angeles where R o b e r t Kennedy's
U . S. A t t o r n e y s showed l e s s respect for constitutional c i v i l rights
than for a s o i l e d toilet paper.

The Kennedys were establishing a family political dynasty and

had taken over the White House with its homosexual stigma. The
clan had been well trained in political deceit, corruption and election-buying by their father, Joseph Kennedy, who had been prosecuted, convicted and ousted from Congress for an election fraud
that had put him in Congress during the F . D. R. regime.
Neither the Democratic Party nor the Kennedys could risk a
scandal on organized homosexuals in government and their political influence. It would have surfaced in the libel trial which i n volved California Democratic appointees and state administration
perversion. Psychiatric prosecution was renewed on the to prevent a t r i a l - - a violation of the Fifth Amendment: ". . . nor shall
any person . . . be twice put in jeopardy. "
The political expediency to silence me with an "insanity" i m prisonment required multiple rigged proceedings, falsifying more
documents, compounded violations of civil rights, collusion of fedr
eral courts and the perjury by a government medical fakir.
On the evening of the eleventh day in the county jail, deputies
told me there was no record I had been arraigned or given a preliminary hearing. I told them what had occurred in Amarillo.
Jail officials said they would not be a party to violations of the
Constitution and would notify the U.S. marshal they would free me
if I were not arraigned within 24hours. Statutes require arraignment within 72 hours after an arrest. I had been in jails more
than 110 days without arraignment or preliminary hearing.
On the morning of March 13, 1961, I was shackled in chains
and taken to Federal Court before Judge Harry C . Westover for
arraignment and a preliminary hearing--after 114 days in jails!
I was \inshaven, wore a borrowed jail shirt, and had a string tied
around my waist to prevent my trousers from falling. I had lost
another 20 pounds and looked and felt like a beragged animal.
When I was called before Judge Westover I made complaint on
the maltreatment and violations of civil rights. A l l of it was deleted from the transcript. The U.S. Attorneys participating in the
corrupt proceedings of Judge Westover's court were Francis C .
Whelan and John K . Van Kamp.
Both the clerk of the court and Judge Westover, however, questioned the legality of the proceedings. The pertinent excerpts follow:
T H E C L E R K : No. 29529-Criminal. United States of America
vs. Frederick Seelig, arraignment and plea. Frederick Seelig, is that your true name?
SEELIG: Yes.
T H E C L E R K : I inform you that if you choose to pleaa guilty,
sentence will be passed upon you; and if you enter a plea of
not guilty, the case must be transferred back to the District
of Texas.
SEELIG: If I plead not guilty, it must be transferred back?
VAN deKAMP: Your honor, this case was transferred here
under Rule 21 for trial. I believe the defendant went all the
way back to Amarillo and he was transferred out here for
disposition, but it is my understanding he can enter a not
guilty plea and go to trial.
47

T H E C L E R K : Do you have an attorney?

SEELIG: No, I do not.
JUDGE WESTOVER: I will appoint Robert Kogan as your attorney and you can discuss this matter with him.
M r . Van
deKamp, I don't find a consent here.
VAN deKAMP: This is not a Rule 20 case. It is transferred
to this court under Rule 21.
JUDGE WESTOVER: What am I supposed to do?
VAN deKAMP: We will have to arraign the defendant.
JUDGE WESTOVER: Yes, he ought to be arraigned.
T H E C L E R K : The United States Attorney will hand you a copy
of the information.
SEELIG: This carbon is so bad I can't read it.
WESTOVER: A r e you ready?
KOGAN: Yes, we are, your honor.
T H E C L E R K : Do you waive reading of the information?
KOGAN: Yes.
T H E C L E R K : I will ask the defendant, what is your plea?
Guilty or not guilty?
S E E L I G : Not guilty.
T H E C L E R K : This is a Rule 21 case and he can plead like
this?
VAN deKAMP: That is my understanding.
WESTOVER: The case will be transferred to Judge Yankwich
for further proceedings. You go in there at 2 o'clock this
afternoon.
It was the third rigged proceeding; nor was it the last. A l l
future proceedings were equally corrupt in Los Angeles. U.S.
Attorneys violated statutes, Rules for Court Procedures and Constitutional rights in rigged proceedings with perjury, falsifying of
documents and juggling court files.
The Federal Grand Jury has
refused to hold hearines for investigation.
That is why I petitioned for a Congressional Committee investigation. It is why I am taking my case to the public on the decadence of the judiciary and the Department of Justice; the despotism and tyranny of federal courts and the United States Attorneys
applying Communistic psychiatric prosecution to imprison a person without trial or conviction.
What happened to me has happened to others and can happen to
you under a deceptive and corrupt political party's administration
of government. Pervision and corruption within a government and
its judiciary soon enslaves the free people of that nation with loss
of liberties, freedoms and justice.
For four years my right to all transcripts, documents, and
court records, as well as my confiscated property as evidence
and proof of corruption in the federal courts and Justice Department have been denied to me. Due process of law for hearings
are also still denied. Three of the eight transcripts I have obtained are not true copies. There are deletions and fabrication.
But there is still sufficient proof in the three transcripts on the
rigging of proceedings and the corrupt practices.
The March 13th proceedings in Judge Westover's court, the
questions on Rules 20 and 21 disclose the irregularities, corruption and the deceptions of the U. S. Attorney Van de Kamp. I was

Judge Westover, U . S . A t t o r n e y s Whelan, V a n de K a m p , and
Court-appointed Kogan knew the L o s A n g e l e s f e d e r a l d i s t r i c t had
no j u r i s d i c t i o n to p r o c e e d . B o t h the court c l e r k and Judge W e s t over c a l l e d attention to i t .
Judge Westover asked a strange question: " W h a t a m I supposed
to d o ? " He was told what to do by the U . S . A t t o r n e y s . The J u s tice Department had a l r e a d y c o m m i t t e d so many c o r r u p t p r a c t i c e s
to prevent a t r i a l that one m o r e v i o l a t i o n was m e r e l y following
the pattern. U . S. A t t o r n e y V a n de K a m p r e p l i e d : "We w i l l have

T h e r e was never any intent to p e r m i t a t r i a l . T h i s w i l l be substantiated i n what o c c u r r e d i n Judge Y a n k w i c h ' s court on M a r c h

any intent to allow me to r e a d the indictment u n t i l after I was i m p r i s o n e d . The copy of the indictment V a n de K a m p handed me i n
Judge W e s t o v e r ' s court was so b l u r r e d it was unreadable. I protested: " T h i s carbon i s so bad I can't r e a d i t . " D e l e t e d f r o m the
t r a n s c r i p t was my request for a clean and c l e a r copy. C o u r t appointed attorney, Kogan, w a i v e d reading of the indictment. The
court c l e r k again r a i s e d the i s s u e : " . . . and he can p l e a d l i k e
t h i s ? " Kogan and Judge W e s t o v e r w e r e silent. No defendant has
a chance i n a c o r r u p t court p r o c e e d i n g !
Judge W e s t o v e r abruptly a s s i g n e d the t r i a l to Judge Yankwich's
court. A deputy U . S . m a r s h a l s h a c k l e d me i n chains and handcuffs and l e d me to Y a n k w i c h ' s c o u r t r o o m . A few minutes l a t e r

attorney, G i l b e r t Seton, was with the U . S. A t t o r n e y s and he came
to the defense table and told m e he had been substituted for Kogan!
T r a n s c r i p t s of a l l proceedings i n A m a r i l l o and L o s A n g e l e s
federal courts have been denied m e . M o r e than 20 motions and
petitions were filed for these t r a n s c r i p t s . N e a r l y a year after I

'not guilty' plea, a request for jury t r i a l and that affiant had
a s k e d for subpoenas for his witnesses. Judge Yankwich said
h e ' d decide whether I could have subpoenas for 40 witnesses
essential to m y defense.
L a t e r , Judge Yankwich decided I
could not have any witnesses i n m y behalf. He was looking at
the case file, then r e m a r k e d his court did not have j u r i s d i c tion to p r o c e e d and the case should be returned to Texas for
t r i a l . The U . S. A t t o r n e y a s s e r t e d it was an '86' case and he
a s k e d for a week's continuance. Judge Yankwich granted the
continuance and I was returned to the county j a i l .
The next day, M a r c h 14, 1961, I was taken f r o m the County
J a i l by two U . S. Deputy Ivlarshals, shackled in chains and handcuffs, sped by auto to the Santa M o n i c a Juvenile C o u r t of S u p e r i o r
Court Judge E d w a r d B r a n d for one m o r e of the many custody
hearings.
In the court building c o r r i d o r I was paraded past a
group of homosexuals. When I entered Judge B r a n d ' s court, I
saw the F e d e r a l - a p p o i n t e d A t t o r n e y Seton c o n f e r r i n g with the h o mosexual attorney and L o s A n g e l e s County P r o b a t i o n department
officials.
I asked Attorney Seton who had authorized h i m to appear at the
custody h e a r i n g . Seton r e p l i e d the U . S. A t t o r n e y ' s office had
authorized it upon request of L o s A n g e l e s County o f f i c i a l s ! The
c o l l u s i o n between the Justice Department and L o s Angeles County
officials was obvious. It set a new low i n protecting sexual d e generates on a state l e v e l .
(In e a r l y I960, M a l c o m M a c k e y , a L o s Angeles attorney,
appeared before the B o a r d of G o v e r n o r s of the C a l i f o r n i a B a r
A s s o c i a t i o n requesting investigation and bar action on h o m o sexual attorneys, representing their like i n courts; their corrupt, unethical p r a c t i c e s and their influence in county agencies and courts, but the bar a s s o c i a t i o n took no action.
Seton, with the homosexual attorney, the lesbians, and a male
homosexual, were c a l l e d into the judge's chamber for a c o n f e r ence. I was not allowed in until about 20 minutes l a t e r . The h o mosexual mother and her lesbian spouse, Helen Schade, made a
motion that M r s . Schade be allowed to adopt the c h i l d r e n . She
said M r s . Schade was wealthy, had a large home for the c h i l d r e n ,
and would make them her h e i r s . The court d e f e r r e d d e c i s i o n and
abruptly ended the custody h e a r i n g . I was r e s h a c k l e d arid returned
to the County J a i l . The family of M r s . Schade are heavy financ i a l contributors to the D e m o c r a t i c P a r t y !

Laughlin B . Waters, the holdover U . S . Attorney: Robert A .

Eisenstein, Thomas Sheridan, and David Y. Smith. In Texas,
the proceedings were rigged by William West, III of Fort
Worth and William Hughes. J r . of Amarillo. The Justice Department (Attorney General Robert Kennedy and his deputy
aide, Nicholas de B . Katzenbach) directed the tyranny and
corruption.
The day previous, at the March 13 proceedings, when the Los
Angeles U . S . Attorney told Judge Yankwich it was an "86" case,
I knew there was no hope for a trial. I had already sampled the
rottenness that was twisting me in the perverted political vise.
The Justice Department had failed to imprison me in Texas on an
insanity charge. Judge Yankwich suppressed the Texas sanity
report and I had reasons to believe I was going to be "railroaded"
by a second "rigged" subterfuge insanity prosecution in Los A n geles.
On my return to the County Jail from the Santa Monica Juvenile Court, I penciled a letter to Judge Yankwich:
"It was in faith and belief in the justice of courts and the
Justice Department, that with my evidence, I'd be able to
prove my charges are true. But with the seizure of that evidence, confiscation of my funds, and what I am now experiencing, I am convinced I am being "railroaded" to cover up
the homosexual influence and corruption in government--both
state and federal.
"I have been in jails for more than 100 days without a hearing. I am told I cannot summon witnesses in my behalf. With
what I have already experienced, I cannot expect anything better. I now do not expect justice or a trial. "
That is exactly what happened. Three days later, on March 17,
1961, insanity proceemngs were again resumed. I was not present and did not know the proceedings were being heia. U. S, A t torneys Waters (and his assistants), Jensen, and Eisenstein obtained an order for appointment of a psychiatrist to examine me.
To make certain I'd be declared "insane, " they rigged in Thomas
L . Gore, "chief psychiatrist" of the Los Angeles Countv Superior
Courts, against whom perversion and corruption charges pended
on the custody of my children.
Neither the Federal attorneys nor Judge Yankwich had any i n tention of calling the accredited and certified Federal doctors.
The original motion listed D r s . K a r l O. Von Hagen and Edwin B .
McNeil, who are Federal Court certified doctors. The name of
Gore was inserted--typed between the lines naming D r s . Von H a gen and McNeil. Naturally, Gore was appointed--a charlatan, a
proven liar with a criminal record behind him.
Being on the state and co\inty payroll, and with perversion corruption charges pending against the coiinty officials and state
judges. Gore could be counted upon to frame an insanity opinioni
Robert Kennedy and the Justice Department had stooped in a perversion sewer I
Up to this point from the date of my arrest, December 2, I960,
there had been over 50 violations of the Constitution by both the
Federal courts and the Justice Department.

The M a r c h 20th t r a n s c r i p t r e c o r d d i s c l o s e s the rigging i n
of D r . G o r e had o c c u r r e d at the M a r c h 17th proceedings. The
U . S. A t t o r n e y s could not r i s k a sanity examination by either
V o n H a g e n or M c N e i l . They a r e known for their i n t e g r i t y and
ethics. They would know that Constitutional rights p r o h i b i t
subjecting a p e r s o n to "double jeopardy" on the same charge
after he had been exonerated by five F e d e r a l doctors a few
weeks p r e v i o u s l y after a month of examinations, at the c o n c l u s i o n of w h i c h they had r e n d e r e d a competence and sanity
report.
G o r e was not a qualified or c e r t i f i e d p s y c h i a t r i s t . I n v e s t i g a tion has d i s c l o s e d G o r e falsified his biographies to m e d i c a l assoc i a t i o n s . A Tennessee m e d i c a l examiner stated i n a s w o r n a f f i d a v i t G o r e was m e n t a l l y incompetent and any testimony G o r e gave
under oath had no value. The affidavit detailed G o r e ' s strange
behavior that c l a s s i f i e d h i m as a c r i m i n a l m e n t a l case!
So, the L o s Angeles United States A t t o r n e y s again followed the
homosexual l i n e - - a c c u s e r s a r e " p a r a n o i d s . "

The p o l i t i c a l expediency, however, became urgent l a t e r that

he had falsified when he stated "a year has elapsed . . . i n

(Again he falsified, and Yankwich evidenced his own m e n t a l
incompetence! I had never been to S p r i n g f i e l d . But i t happens i n " r i g g e d " proceedings; t r a n s c r i p t s a r e "doctored" to

wonder i f he was sober!)
A t t o r n e y Seton had me taken to a v i s i t o r ' s r o o m i n the U . S .
M a r s h a l W a r e ' s office for a conference. I was unshaven, my feet
were bare i n m y shoes, and Seton knew m y socks, underclothes,
and dress s h i r t had rotted off me. M y t r o u s e r s were filthy and
out-of-shape. I looked l i k e a shaggy a n i m a l with m y u n t r i m m e d ,
long h a i r . I a s k e d Seton for a toenail c l i p p e r . Seton c a l l e d the
U . S . M a r s h a l and requested c l i p p e r s for m e . The U . S . M a r s h a l
r e p l i e d : "he can use a r a z o r blade as the other p r i s o n e r s do, i n
jail. "
I walked over, put out my foot so the L o s A n g e l e s U . S. M a r shal could see the caked blood on m y toes, and asked for an a n t i septic s a l v e .

Seton added, "We ought to let h i m t r i m the t o e n a i l s . A n i n f e c tion may develop. " The M a r s h a l gave it some thought, agreed,
and walked to a cabinet. He came back with c l i p p e r s and a tube
of s a l v e ,
Seton told the U . S. M a r s h a l he would l i k e to look over m y
property.
" E v e r y t h i n g that was wanted out of this p r o p e r t y a l r e a d y
has been taken. " the U . S. M a r s h a l r e p l i e d , "but now that
y o u ' r e here, we ought to make a double check. "
He unlocked the steel gate, let Seton out, and r e l o c k e d i t .
They w a l k e d f r o m the M a r s h a l ' s office to a storage r o o m . While
they were gone, I t r i m m e d my toenails. The c u r l e d n a i l s , p i e r c ed the flesh, w h i c h bled, as I pushed the s k i n back to c l i p them.
I s a l v e d the toes with antiseptic.
Seton and the U , S. Ivlarshal r e t u r n e d about 40 minutes l a t e r .
T h e . M a r s h a l unlocked the gate to let Seton i n and he w a l k e d off
with a l a r g e envelope. No change of clothing was brought back.
"The U . S. M a r s h a l i s under o r d e r s not to let you have anything f r o m your luggage," Seton explained. " I ' l l ask the U . S . A t torneys to o r d e r a clothing change for y o u . " But I aever was given clothing to r e p l a c e what had rotted off m e !
We sat down at a table. Seton opened a b r i e f case, took out
what appeared to be a new F e d e r a l statute book, and turned the
pages to a m a r k e r .
"Seelig, something may be w o r k e d out for you--but you
w i l l have to agree and cooperate, " Seton s a i d . " Y o u w i l l
never be a l l o w e d a t r i a l , " he continued. " T o o many people
a r e involved and you have made too many charges. R e g a r d l e s s of how true your charges a r e , what witnesses you m a y
have, or other evidence the G o v e r n m e n t hasn't found, there
w i l l be no t r i a l for l i b e l . The F e d e r a l attorneys have a s s u r e d
me that i f you change your plea to guilty, you w i l l be freed i n
six months and i f you forget your charges you might a l s o be
given custody of your daughter and son. "
I sat back i n m y c h a i r , l i s t e n e d , and watched h i m . F o r n e a r l y
three y e a r s I had gone through a h e l l and nightmare--not for what
I had l e a r n e d , gathered proof and evidence w h i c h were i r r e f u t a b l e ,
but to get m y c h i l d r e n safe, away f r o m the p e r v e r t s , out of the
c o n t r o l of a p e r v e r t e d juvenile court, and the l e s b i a n s o c i a l service w o r k e r s who were exposing them to sexual degenerates.
T h e r e had been " d e a l s " offered before. F o r the sake of the
c h i l d r e n , I a g r e e d to one i n Judge O r l a n d o Rhodes' chambers i n
Santa M o n i c a S u p e r i o r C o u r t s .
The d i v o r c e t r i a l had been suddenly m o v e d up f r o m October to
m i d - M a r c h , 1959, and Rhodes was p r e s i d i n g . I had 17 witnesses
i n the c o u r t r o o m , m o r e than 45 i t e m s of evidence, affidavits, and
m a t e r i a l damaging to the h o m o s e x u a l s . T h e r e w e r e a l s o p i c t o r i a l evidence and m o r e than 40 p e r v e r t l e t t e r s i n t h e i r own handw r i t i n g , d e s c r i b i n g their -obscene "tender love, " r e c r u i t i n g of

The homosexual attorney, C h a r l e s M o r r i s o n , was i n the chamb e r s . Rhodes told me that a scandal should be a v e r t e d so the

MOLESTER OF CHILDREN

Male Homosexual in Female Garb

Shown above is one oi 42 items filed in the Los Angeles Superior Courts on homosexual obscenity and perversion in Mr. Seelig's effort to safeguard his daughter and
son from being reared in homosexuality. This picture shows a male homosexual,
known as "Herbie", who is dressed in female garb. This pervert is shown in another
picture sucking a child's tongue. A l l original items of evidence were confiscated by
the Justice Department and destroyed in the imprisonment of Mr. Seelig. The White
House is silent on petition for invattlgation.

should not be stigmatized. He said the mother could not possibly

obtain custody and, if I consented to a default divorce, the children would be awarded to me. I agreed. But, my mistake was
believing any Los Angeles County official or judge. Rhodes came
out of his chambers to the bench, dismissed my witnesses, gave
a default divorce, and then ruled the children would continue under jurisdiction of the Juvenile Court with no custody granted to
either parent. Unknown to me was that the children were already
in the custody of homosexuals!
Rhodes got off the bench, returned to his chambers, and locked
the door as I protested I did not consent to those default divorce
terms. I had signed no agreement.
The "deal" by Seton had the same smell. What I had already
experienced with the Kennedy Administration Justice Department
--deception, rottenness, and perversion influence --alerted me.
I told Seton it did not appeal to me.
He picked up the statute book and said he was reading from
Section 1718: that it was felony criminal libel and carried a five
year sentence with a $5, 000 fine.
"Seelig, " he said, "you were indicted on three counts. That's
15 years and a $15, 000 fine. "
I asked for a copy of the indictment. He said he did not have
it with him. Then I asked how a 15-year sentence could be reduced to six months.
Seton said it was "fixed" with Yankwich to suspend the fine
and free me on parole.
It smelled so badly I seethed with anger but wanted to know
more before I "fired" him as defense attorney.
I asked him about his Santa Monica Juvenile Court appearance
on March 14th at the custody hearing. Seton said he was there
"only as an observer. " But, Seton was a liar!
His appearance had taken up most of his day. Attorneys are
not likely to "observe" as a favor to public officials --State or
Federal--without payment or for a reason which will be profitable
to them.
"Did you give your time freely, or were you paid?" I asked
him. Seton was evasive. He said it was a "goodwill courtesy
service. "
But, when I arrived in the Santa Monica Court he was conferring with homosexual attorneys and county officials. Had it been
in my interests, or in the interests of the children, he would have
first come to the jail to confer with me.
His admission, that he had been there at the request of
county, state, and federal agency officials, verified to me
there was collusion between state and federal officials to
cover up what I had surfaced on the homosexual power and
perversion in government.
Seton got up from the table, went to a water basin for a cup of
water, and stood there. The statute book intrigued me. In all the
years I had worked on newspapers as a reporter, and on news
desks, I had never heard of a five, ten, or fifteen-year sentence
for alleged libel on a conviction or plea of guiltv, nor it being a
felony. I read the statute. What was in print was true as to what
58

he had read. I flipped the pages to the front for the date of publ i c a t i o n . It was 19011 The statute book was an antique--60 y e a r s
old.
Seton noticed m y d i s c o v e r y and r e t u r n e d to the table. I pointed
to the page and date.
" C a n you explain i t ? " I asked.
"The book was given to me by the U . S. A t t o r n e y s , Setonadmitted, adding, " C o r p o r a t i o n law, not c r i m i n a l , i s m y p r a c t i c e . 1
was c a l l e d i n to take over for Kogan. "
M y anger surfaced then. " T a k e this book back and t e l l them
my answer i s they can go to h e l l ! "
" Y o u ' r e making a m i s t a k e , Seelig, " he s a i d . " T h e r e w i l l
never be a t r i a l or a hearing a l l o w e d you on your c h a r g e s .
N o r w i l l you get your p r o p e r t y or files back. Refuse to plead
guilty and you w i l l be found insane, i m p r i s o n e d for the r e s t
of your l i f e . Y o u w i l l never see your c h i l d r e n again or know
what became of them. That attitude w i l l destroy you. Y o u
can't fightthe new society. After two y e a r s , nothing has been
gained except your a r r e s t and indictment. "
M y anger mounted. "Get out, y o u ' r e through! Get out of the
case and the c h i l d r e n ' s c a s e ! " I t o l d h i m . " T e l l those F e d e r a l
attorneys I c a l l e d them p e r v e r t e d bastards. How many faggots
and queers are there i n that o f f i c e ? "
The U . S. M a r s h a l w a l k e d o v e r . Seton packed his b r i e f case.
I was going to ask h i m i f he had a statement a l r e a d y p r e p a r e d for
me to s i g n that my charges had been " i m a g i n e d , " but instead, I
t o l d h i m again that he was d i s m i s s e d as the court-appointed defense attorney and I would m a i l h i m a letter to that effect, a l s o a
copy to Judge Y a n k w i c h .
Seton motioned to the U . S. M a r s h a l to unlock the gate. He
w a l k e d out without comment. The U . S . M a r s h a l c a l l e d to a deputy to remove me to the front c e l l where p r i s o n e r s a r e kept b e fore being taken to the county j a i l . In the adjoining v i s i t o r ' s r o o m
was C a r b o , an a l l e g e d " m o b s t e r . " He was on t r i a l for c o n s p i r a c y
i n boxing. A s I w a l k e d by his v i s i t o r s and attorneys, C a r b o s a i d :
" Y o u deserve a c h i c k e n dinner. I a m o r d e r i n g dinners for everyone. Would you l i k e to be i n c l u d e d ? " I nodded i n r e p l y .
A f t e r I was l o c k e d up i n the p r i s o n e r c e l l , one of his friends
a s k e d me what d e s s e r t I would l i k e and how I wanted m y coffee.
The U . S. M a r s h a l o r d e r e d h i m to "Get back where you b e l o n g - he can't have anything. "
I had had nothing to eat since the mush and doughnut for breakfast. It was late afternoon and I was hungry. I watched the C a r bo group feast on c h i c k e n . One of C a r b o ' s friends, when the U . S .
M a r s h a l had his back turned, s l i p p e d me a pack of c i g a r e t t e s .
But he forgot to give me matches.
S h o r t l y afterward, an i n c o m i n g p r i s o n e r was put i n the c e l l
w i t h me. He had a packet of matches and we s h a r e d the c i g a r ettes. When I was taken out to be s h a c k l e d i n chains and handcuffs for the walk a c r o s s the street to the county j a i l , I gave h i m
the r e m a i n d e r of the package. C i g a r e t t e s a r e confiscated f r o m
p r i s o n e r s on entering the j a i l .
On my r e t u r n to the j a i l tank, I b o r r o w e d a few pages of paper,
s e v e r a l envelopes, a p e n c i l , and two postage stamps f r o m a traf59

fic offense county p r i s o n e r with whom I had become acquainted.

I wrote l e t t e r s of d i s m i s s a l to Seton, with notice to Y a n k w i c h , and
requested appointment of another attorney. I gave the l e t t e r s to
a deputy for m a i l i n g . L e t t e r s to defense attorneys and to the
court w e r e p e r m i s s i b l e after c e n s o r s h i p by F e d e r a l o f f i c i a l s .
M y refusal to "cooperate" by changing my plea to guilty of
l i b e l brought quick actiorf. Two days l a t e r , " D r . " G o r e came
to the county j a i l to " e x a m i n e " me on m.y sanity. I was taken
to the j a i l h o s p i t a l w a r d and sat with G o r e at a table at the
end of a c o r r i d o r .
I t o l d G o r e I would stand on the F e d e r a l m e d i c a l b o a r d
sanity findings made a few weeks p r e v i o u s l y . We argued
about i t .
He s a i d he had investigated m y charges and told me I had
" i m a g i n e d " a l l of them!
I a s k e d h i m his opinion on h o m o s e x u a l i t y . He told me
there was nothing wrong with i t . He knew everything that had
happened i n m y case, the names of the county s o c i a l s e r v i c e
w o r k e r s involved, the homosexuals, and what had o c c u r r e d
for two y e a r s . It was o b v i o u s G o r e h a d b e e n b r i e f e d , coached,
and had a c c e s s to the County P r o b a t i o n Department f i l e s . The
meeting between us l a s t e d less than an hour. T h e r e w e r e no
witnesses nor was a tape r e c o r d i n g made on what t r a n s p i r e d
at that table.
It was the only meeting we had. T h e r e were no sanity
tests nor any of the examination tests w h i c h had taken place
at the F o r t W o r t h H o s p i t a l P r i s o n where I was given a sanity
examination.
Instead of the A p r i l 17 scheduled hearing on m y sanity, I
was sped to Y a n k w i c h ' s court the m o r n i n g of A p r i l 3.
Gore
was i m m e d i a t e l y put on the stand. He t e s t i f i e d I was insane
and " l e g a l l y insane for at least five y e a r s " - - t h a t I was a "hom o s e x u a l i n his opinion" with an "abhorrence for l e s b i a n s . "
G o r e t e s t i f i e d none of m y charges against the p u b l i c offic i a l s or judges were true; that a l l charges, including h o m o sexuals i n the government, were " f a l s e " and I was guilty of
slandering those o f f i c i a l s . G o r e t e s t i f i e d he had examined
me for "two and one-half h o u r s . " In his typed i n s a n i t y r e port to the court, he s a i d it was "two h o u r s . " In both i n s t a n ces he was a l i a r .
Judge Y a n k w i c h i g n o r e d m y letter of d i s m i s s a l of A t t o r n e y Seton. A t the proceedings he t o l d me I could not d i s m i s s h i m . A s
the t r a n s c r i p t shows it, Seton's questioning and c r o s s examination
of G o r e gives the deceptive and false i m p r e s s i o n he was p r o f i c i e n t
i n c r i m i n a l law, had experience i n sanity hearings and court p r o cedures.
L i k e a l l the proceedings conducted against me, the c o u r t r o o m
was empty except for a few government spectators.
Seton's conduct evidenced he was a F e d e r a l "stooge, " s u b s t i tuted for a court-appointed defense attorney. When I c o r n e r e d
h i m on his background, he admitted his p r a c t i c e was c o r p o r a t i o n
law and he had no c r i m i n a l law p r a c t i c e or e x p e r i e n c e .
It wasn't until n e a r l y three y e a r s l a t e r , after I had regained

Justice Department Resorts to Kremlin

Tyranny Psychiatric Imprisonment
Excerpts from the riggedand FederalCourt falsified transcript
on Communist psychiatric "insanity" proceedings are the first to
be published of this actual case within the United States. A copy
of D r . Gore's faked insanity report was also submitted to the U.S.
Supreme Court in my appeal. It was filed as "Exhibit B - B " and
was accompanied by an affidavit on the perjury, the falsifying and
how it followed the Kremlin-created psychiatry to get r i d of government accusers.
Gore's insanity report exemplifies the criminality of psychiatric mental health prosecution. What happened to me can happen
to you or anyone! A few weeks prior, a Texas Federal Medical
Board, not under the control of the Justice Department or a F e d eral court, had subjected me for 30 days to tests and exarndnations. The board had declared me sane and competent.
Gore, in one short visit, gave no tests, but testified I was i n sane and "legally insane for five years" despite the fact that he
had never seen me before. My competence had been established
throughout my years as a newspaperman and I had proven my sanr
ity a few weeks previously to the Federal Medical Board.
In psychiatric prosecution, a defendant is not allowed witnesses, his own doctors, or medical experts of his own choosing;
nor is he allowed introduction of evidence that nothing he said or
had written had been "imagined" or had been libelous.
Gore's "insanity" report to Judge Yankwich said I was "living
off the bounty of press clubs." He lied and did not substantiate
that falsity, nor did the U, S. Attorneys. In 1959 and I960, I was
employed on news desks of newspapers in Pittsburgh and Baltimore. Payroll records and affidavits, showing Gore lied and fabricated, were denied introduction as evidence of Gore's perjury.
In Communist psychiatric prosecution, only a government psychiatrist is allowed to submit a report and to testify. This is now
the procedure in the United States.
Gore's testimony also evidenced his familiarity with the directives in the Kremlin mental health manual and the claims that
"three out of ten Americans are mentally unsound." Gore testi63

fied he d i d not know i f the charges I made were true or f a l s e .

L a t e r , he t e s t i f i e d a l l the charges were f a l s e . He a l s o t e s t i f i e d
he d i d not c a r e i f five or ten doctors found a p e r s o n sane, only
his opinion on i n s a n i t y m a t t e r e d .
P o r t i o n s of the questioning by court-appointed A t t o r n e y Seton,
Judge Y a n k w i c h , U . S. A t t o r n e y Schulman, and G o r e , taken out of
the t r a n s c r i p t follow:
S E T O N : Y o u stated that the defendant i s unable to d i s t i n g u i s h
between r i g h t and w r o n g ; i s that c o r r e c t ?
GORE: Yes, sir.
S E T O N : When he makes charges that c e r t a i n i n d i v i d u a l s a r e
g u i l t y of h o m o s e x u a l p e r v e r s i o n s , he makes a charge that
they a r e doing something wrong?
G O R E : He i s m a k i n g a charge i n w h i c h he c o n s i d e r s people
a r e doing something wrong but he has no r e a s o n for making
charges w h i c h are v a l i d . ( S i c . )
S E T O N : W e l l , l e t ' s just take h i s consciousness of the difference between r i g h t and w r o n g . He knows, does he not, that
it i s wrong to be a p e r v e r t , a s e x u a l p e r v e r t ?
G O R E : Undoubtedly he knows that.
S E T O N : So he knows that difference between r i g h t and wrong?
GORE: Correct.
S E T O N : A l l r i g h t . N o w , you say that he i s m a k i n g charges
w h i c h he has no reasonable b a s i s to believe a r e t r u e . How
do you know that?
G O R E : I do not go on whether the charges are c o r r e c t or i n c o r r e c t . (Sic. )
S E T O N : Isn't i t true that many people, whether r i g h t or
wrong--we'11 say m o r e than ten, a r e under the i m p r e s s i o n
that Judges can be fixed and C o u r t s can be a r r a n g e d and
things can happen that don't go a c c o r d i n g to the Rule
Books . . .
G O R E : W e l l , we estimate that about three people out of e v e r y ten w i l l , sooner or l a t e r , become m e n t a l l y i l l .
S E T O N : Then, i n other w o r d s , you a r e c o n v i n c e d the charges
a r e false?
G O R E : l a m convinced (?) that the charges that he makes
about the J u d i c i a r y and the officers of the l a w a r e f a l s e .
S E T O N : W e l l , now, I know that one ground that you have for
a s s e s s i n g his sanity i s h i s effect or m o o d . N o w , would you
say it i s s u r p r i s i n g for a m a n i n p r i s o n to be d e p r e s s e d ?
GORE: No.
S E T O N : L e t me ask you this: If you were a d v i s e d that five
other doctors s i m i l a r l y , i n a s i m i l a r p o s i t i o n to the one you
hold, had e x a m i n e d this defendant w i t h i n a p e r i o d of a month
or two or three, would you think that t h e i r opinions m i g h t
have some bearings on y o u r s ?
S C H U L M A N : Y o u r H o n o r , objection on that as no foundation
has been l a i d for the p a r t i c u l a r question.
S E T O N : We are at a h y p o t h e s i s . I can make an offer of p r o o f
w i t h p r o p e r subpoenas and produce the m e d i c a l r e p o r t s of
the five doctors who have examined the defendant p r e v i o u s l y .
Y A N K W I C H : I w i l l a l l o w the doctor to answer the question.
G O R E : Y o u mentioned five d o c t o r s . I have no objection i f it
64

was five or ten. M y opinion i s m y own.

S E T O N : D i d you, by any chance, examine the r e p o r t s of any
p r e v i o u s doctors w i t h r e g a r d to the m e n t a l condition of this
defendant?
G O R E : I d i d not.
S E T O N : O n that s c o r e , i f you w e r e of the opinion that the defendant didn't r e a l l y b e l i e v e that his charges w e r e t r u e , but
was m a k i n g these charges s i m p l y to attract attention, w o u l d
you then say that he was under some k i n d of d e l u s i o n of
persecution?
G O R E : T h i s m a n b e l i e v e s i n the statements that he has made,
and he i s suffering f r o m d e l u s i o n s . T h e r e i s no doubt about
it.
Y A N K W I C H : T h e r e i s a p o s s i b i l i t y i n a case of this c h a r a c t e r - - y o u h a v e a w o r d - - w h e r e he has a p e r i o d of l u c i d i t y .
What do you c a l l i t ?
G O R E : That i s what we use, a " r e m i s s i o n . "
Y A N K W I C H : A r e m i s s i o n . T h e r e i s a p o s s i b i l i t y i n a case
l i k e that to have a r e m i s s i o n and for i t to l a s t for s e v e r a l

G O R E : It m a y l a s t for s e v e r a l months, i t m a y l a s t for s e v e r a l y e a r s , but the p r o g n o s i s i s p o o r .
Y A N K W I C H : It m a y come on at any t i m e ?
G O R E : A t any t i m e .
Y A N K W I C H : It m a y come back at any t i m e ?
G O R E : Yes, sir.

GORE: They have latent homosexual tendencies.

Questioning of Gore by United States Assistant Attorney Schul
man is also revealing. It discloses Gore was head of the "Department of Mental Hygiene for the State of California in 1954 at
Atascadero Hospital. He testified he opened it. Gore calims he
graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1915 and joined
the U . S . Army in 1916. A n investigation into Gore's background
revealed he was discharged from the Army in 1939. He stated
under oath in a deposition taken out of court a few years after I
was imprisoned that he "was a banker for 15 years" hereafter.
(Loan bucket offices near Army camps condemned as rackets. )
Documented investigative reports, which have been verified,
disclosed he obtained employment as an administrative director
of Davidson County Hospital in 1947, in Tennessee, on his claim
he had been an administrative officer in the U . S. A r m y . (Executive orders clamped secrecy on the Army files regarding Gore! )
In 1948, he was discharged by Davidson Hospital for mishandling county funds, incompetence, and for performing illegal and
criminal operations.
In 1951, he came to California and was issued a license by
Sacramento to practice medicine. The medical training and teaching he gave in his biography to medical associations has been exposed as being false and fradulent.
Neither the State of California, Los Angeles County, where he
was "Chief Psychiatrist, " nor the Deaprtment of Justice, will a l low public hearings on Gore or the documented evidence against
him on his falsifying a medical background. It follows the Kennedy-Johnson policy of silence and covering up corruption, homosexuality and treason.
U. S. Assistant Attorney Schulman, the transcript of the testimony on April 3rd proceedings will evidence, followed similar
doctrines of Communist psychiatric prosecution to discredit, stigmatize a government accuser and destroy his effectiveness.
Transcript excerpts follow:
SCHULMAN; D r . Gore, have you had any particular experience in your career as a medical doctor dealing with problems specifically sexual in nature?
GORE: I was selected by the head of the Department of Mental Hygiene for the State of California in 1954 to go to Atascadero Hospital and open it up, which is a hospital for sexual deviates, male.
SCHULMAN: How long? And in what capacity did you serve
there, sir?
GORE: I served there as Assistant Superintendent in charge
of the Medical Service for four years.
SCHULMAN: And in this capacity, sir, did you have an opportunity to act in a psychiatric capacity?
GORE: That was my capacity. I was head of the medical
section and conducted all of the staff meetings of the medical staff in which we decided what was to be done with each
case.

S C H U L l v l A N : D u r i n g that p e r i o d of t i m e , s i r , just roughly,
could you say how many people you perhaps had a chance to
i n t e r v i e w and examine and t a l k withr-patients who had problems sexually related in nature?
G O R E : We a v e r a g e d about eight hundred i n a y e a r into that
h o s p i t a l . I t a l k e d to them a l l . T h i s man has a straight a b h o r r a n c e for h o m o s e x u a l i t y and l e s b i a n i s m . Of c o u r s e i t
i s just for the feTnale, Homosexuality c o v e r s both, but we
have found out i n the study of homosexuals that we have two
types, the o v e r t and the latent h o m o s e x u a l . The latent homosexxial e x p r e s s e s great distaste and h o r r o r i n d i s c u s s i n g
anything about homosexuals and i s apt to designate people
as h o m o s e x u a l s .
S C H U L i M A N : W o u l d you suggest that this d e s c r i p t i o n , then,
by the defendant to these persons of being h o m o s e x u a l , perv e r t e d or h o m o s e x u a l t h e m s e l v e s , i s a r a t i o n a l i z i n g type

it was v e r y c h a r a c t e r i s t i c . P a r a n o i d p e r s o n a l i t i e s project
their feelings t o w a r d others, and he has c e r t a i n l y done a

S C H U L M A N : In your c o n c l u s i o n s , s i r , f r o m your e x a m i n a tions, and f r o m your o b s e r v a t i o n of the defendant at this

judgments and that he i s i n need of s u p e r v i s i o n and c a r e and
treatment.
S C H U L M A N : Do you b e l i e v e , s i r , that at this t i m e i f this

not those of a r a t i o n a l person, and the defendant's attitude at
this time w i t h reference to these foregoing acts is no m o r e
67

rational than at the time they were committed. A n d that, i n

effect, the defendant would be unable to fully understand the
conceptual aspects of the matter with which he has been
charged.
" T h e Government petitions this C o u r t , under the p r o v i s i o n s
of Sections 4244 and 4246 of T i t l e 18, U . S. Code, that the defendant be committed to the custody of the Attorney G e n e r a l ,
Robert Kennedy, at Springfield, M i s s o u r i , until such time as
he shall be mentally competent to stand t r i a l and that a decl a r a t i o n of this C o u r t as to his insanity be h e r e i n entered. "
The p s y c h i a t r i c "hatchetman" for L o s A n g e l e s County had a c c o m p l i s h e d for the Justice Department what five qualified F e d e r a l

Judge Yankwich's o r d e r called for " u n t i l such time as he s h a l l

had no intent to ever allow a t r i a l for l i b e l - - r e g a r d l e s s of statutes

with "insanity, " but it also upheld G o r e ' s testimony that 1 a m a

N o r had I ever been i n the S p r i n g f i e l d P e n i t e n t i a r y , yet Judge
Yankwich stated:
" . . . I w i l l be glad to send you back any time you want to go
back to Springfield, M i s s o u r i , if you request that you r e t u r n
there."
P r e v i o u s l y , Judge Yankwich's confused m i n d frequently made
it obvious something was wrong with his mental competence.

P r i o r to his c l o s i n g statement f r o m the bench. Judge Yankwich
d i s c l o s e d he had been a L o s A n g e l e s County S u p e r i o r C o u r t Judge

being h e l d against m e . In one instance, he stated:
" . . . the case r e a l l y should be sent back to A m a r i l l o . "
T h e r e has been c o n s i d e r a b l e i m a g e - b u i l d i n g of Judge Yankwich
over the y e a r s . It has been the usual bilge that has g l o r i f i e d other

to cabinet executive positions as w e l l as to F e d e r a l agencies with

whose loyalty is to A m e r i c a n i s m , the R e p u b l i c , and the C o n s t i t u tion.
L i t t l e known is that Judge Yankwich was among the appointees
to the F e d e r a l j u d i c i a r y by F D R - - t h e nation's a r c h - b e t r a y e r , a
F a b i a n S o c i a l i s t , l i b e r a l D e m o c r a t , who posed as a " G r e a t H u m a n i t a r i a n " with a yen for homosexuals and the K r e m l i n breed of

I am only one of about 190 million Americans with an aversion

to the abominable, sex-maniac creatures. According to Gore,
the U. S. Attorneys and Judge Yankwich, that means there are
190 million "lunatics" who can be shackled in chains, handcuffs
and leg-irons for shipment to the torture drain-hole cells of the
infamous Federal penitentiary at Springfield, Missouri, where
prisoner atrocities are performed in "guinea pig" experiments.
The testimony and insanity report by Gore on an accuser was
not strange--considering that he is on the same county and state
payroll as the accused officials and judges. They are of the same
political tyranny machine.
As a political "hatchetman, " Gore was no doubt congratulated
for his performance. For more than eight years, state and F e d eral officials have blocked and prevented due process of law on
my charges and complaints against government corruption.
Judge Yankwich's conclusionary statement from the bench, declaring me "insane" and his comments:
"Gentlemen, I think these are not pleasant cases. I have
several of them. The statute is broad. D r . Gore has made
a very comprehensive report in which he substantiates the
findings, and I concur with them and I find that as of today
the defendant is insane or otherwise mentally incompetent as
to be unable to understand the proceedings against him or to
properly assist in his own defense.
"I think the letters, his action on the stand, his return to
the assertion all the time that such and so told me to be the
truth, he is willing to name witnesses whose names were absolutely unknown to the Court, (Sic. ) giving hearsay coming
back to them in his own justification, the conclusion that he
had this fixation, whether it is caused by latent homosexuality we needn't concern ourselves with.
"That is recognized. In fact, there is a play that we saw
that was given in New York. It was called "Tea and Sympathy. " It is by Van Drooten. It was based upon that very idea
of a ntoan being so afraid of his own homosexual tendency that
he accuses all others of those acts. But that is merely an
illustration of one of the elements which this psychiatric report has taken into consideration.
"The Court will make a finding to that effect, and will order
the defendant committed to the custody of the Attorney General, to be placed in the Mental Hospital, Springfield, M i s souri, or any other hospital to be designated by him until the
accused may be mentally competent to stand trial.
"Incidentally, it occurs to me that the case really should be
sent back in view of this finding, in view of the fact that he
probably will be committed to St. Louis, Missouri, and I think
we should send back the case, transfer it to the Court it came
from, so that if he is, after treatment, declared sane, he
would be nearer the place where he can be tried. "
Court was quickly adjourned. I had been declared insane, degraded, discredited, and stigmatized. The methods used followed
the Communist psychiatric and psychopolitical instructions blueprinted from Kremlin 32 years ago for Americans. J F K , LB J,
R F K , and Nicholas Katzenback wouldn't dare hold open public
71

hearings on the U . N , Kremlin Manual--especially on this excerpt

now being imposed on Americans!
"An immediate attack upon the sanity of the attacker (accuser), before any possible hearing can take place, is the
best defense in moments of expediency. The label of 'insanity' discredits and discounts the statements of the person. In
psychiatric imprisonment there are no civil rights.
Psychiatrists cannot be questioned . . . "
It is a horrible and terrifying ordeal for anyone to go through
Communist psychiatric prosecution proceedings.
The callousness numbs and dazes a person who is denied all civil rights, not
allowed witnesses or his own doctors--and how judges assume
the dual role of prosecutor and judgel
Judge Yankwich claims in his statement that G o r e made a
"comprehensive report, " and had substantiated it. Arthur Sylvester, an undersecretary for the Defense Department, aptly put
it: "The Government has the inherent right to lie to save itself. "
In other words, we have a government of liars, cheats, subterfuge, thieves, and treason!
The liars, cheats, and scoundrels are not confined to the Defense and State Departments, nor to the White House, but overlap
in the judiciary. Justice Department, and every agency of the socalled "humanitarian" Great Society administration, spawned out
of New Dealism and New Frontierism!
Yankwich brushed aside the witnesses I asked to be subpoenaed
as being: "Absolutely unknown to the Court, " and therefore not
allowed to testify! (So, we now have Kremlin government tyranny
in the United States)
Adding insult to malicious injury, Yankwich's moronic mind
likened me to a homosexvial in a New York stage drama in justifying his "consideration" of Gore's "psychiatric report," branding me a lunatic with sexual degeneracy.
It exemplifies a degree of the present calibre of the judiciary
political appointees with despotic gutter liberalism, used to i m prison accusers of government perversion and communism!
Yankwich's outrageous deceit hits a new amoral low, either because of incompetence or ignorance, when he stated he was committing me to a "mental Hospital" when, in reality, he gave me
an indefinite sentence to the Federal penitentiary, a hell-hole,
hard-core prison, at Springfield, Missouri.
His statement ended with hodge-podge double-talk, expected
from an idiot and not a jurist. His miind rambled:
". . . it occurs to me that the case really should be sent
back in view of this finding, in view of the fact that he probably will be committed to St. Louis, l^^ssouri, and I think we
should send back the case, transfer it to the Court it came
from . . . "
Transferring the case back to Amarillo wouldhave put the Justice Department in another precarious position for additional perversion corruption! The Amarillo U. S. District Court had declared me sane on the findings of a Federal Medical Board. The
Justice Department could not risk a trial for libel because of what
it would have disclosed-- leading to Limp-Wrist Jenkins in the
White House.
72

By corrupt proceedings, the Justice Department had sped me

to the Los Angeles Federal Courts from Amarillo, Texas, to get
rid of me with a "double jeopardy" insanity charge, using a Los
Angeles County administration charletan and a senile judge known
for his strange ideological liberalism.
During the Federal kangaroo court proceedings, Yankwich
openly expressed hatred for Christian conservatives. He said the
U. S. Senators in the 1950 Senate investigation of Communists and
homosexuals on Federal payrolls were witch-hunters and lunatics.
He singled out the late Senator Joseph McCarthy with derogatory
and slanderous remarks as to his "sanity."
The vicious, smearing and discrediting attacks by White House
administration liberals, pseudo-moderates, Commvinists, Sodomites, and anti-Christian organizations - - a l l with the blessings of
the Great Society "humanities" sponsored by New Dealism-Frontierism cohorts, hastened Senator McCarthy's death and that egomaniac smearing still continues.
Since the early 1940's hundreds of American patriots, conservatives, vocal anti-Communism and anti-homosexuality accusers
have been the liquidation targets.
It was by similar political corrupt procedures I was condemned
and became a guinea pig for the Federal psychiatrist fiends who
tried to change my thinking to the government's "mental health"
standards for a tranquilized and regimented "captive" population.
After court was adjourned, a deputy U.S. marshal again shackled me in chains and handcuffs. He and a dozen other Federal
agents herded me, like an animal, back to the confines of the Los
Angeles County Jail.
Many of the Los Angeles County sheriff deputies at the jail
found it difficult to believe that I had been adjudged insane. They
knew my background and also the power of the homosexual influence in government but did not believe the Justice Department
would gutter-stoop to get rid of me with insanity imprisonment.
Without a trial or a conviction of any offense, much less for
alleged libel. Gore and Judge Yankwich had found me guilty of l i bel and insanity and exonerated all accused California State and
Los Angeles County public officials, judges, social service workers and homosexuals of all charges pending against them.
In effect, my daughter and son were then conveniently condemned to a life of homosexuality by the Los Angeles County Probation Department and the Superior Courts.
It is strange that if I were so "insane" that I would be returned
to a county jail housing 60 other prisoners, all sane, under prison
sentences or facing trials for crimes of violence and traffic offenses.
Several prisoners serving terms for traffic offenses gave me
paper, pencil, envelopes, and postage stamps to write friends,
relatives, and letters of appeal.
The County Jail, conforming to rules on Federal prisoners,
turned the letters over to the U. S. Marshal. None were mailed.
The letters, however, enabled the Justice Department to know
with whom I was trying to communicate I
When the county jail officials learned I was trying to send let73

ters to the U . S. Court of Appeals, they told me I had that constitutional right and the county jail would not be an accessory to
a Constitution violation. They told me they would mail my letters
to the Federal appellate courts themselves, and not give the letters to the U . S. Marshal.
I penciled two more letters to the U.S. Court of Appeals at San
Francisco, charging violations of constitutional rights by the Los
Angeles U.S. District Court in one letter, and in the other charged
fraud, rigged proceedings, and corrupt practices by the Justice
Department, the Los Angeles Federal Courts and U . S. Attorneys.
For nearly two weeks I remained in the County Jail, hoping
that my appeals would be granted a hearing. But I received no
replies until weeks after I had become prisoner P 427 in the
Springfield Federal penitentiary. The replies had been received
by the Los Angeles U . S . Marshal. It lessened the chance of my
appeals being docketed!
Later, when my appeal was docketed, none Of the U. S. District
or appellate courts would allow me assistance of legal counsel or
appoint covmsel to represent me. Despite it, I carried my own
case through three Federal district courts, two Federal appellate
courts and subsequently "won" my own case in the U. S. Supreme
court--only to have the decision invalidated by Kennedy Judiciary
corruption.
In retaliation for proving the Federal courts, U . S . Attorneys,
psychiatrists and prison officials were liars, the Justice Department a year and a half later compelled me to engage a Justice
Department "approved" attorney who revoked the Supreme Court
decisions and mandates.
How it was done, and how I was eventually freed by more
"rigged" proceedings to prevent a J F K - L B J scandal--still denied
the right of a trial or a hearing on the illegal imprisonment--will
be disclosed.
A prisoner never knows, at least I didn't, when he'll be moved
from one jail to another or to a prison vmtil a few minutes before
his departure.
At no time was I allowed visitors or any outside contacts. A l though the Los Angeles newspapers knew my case, what it involved, and that it was rigged--all of the papers "accomodated"
the Justice Department managed news censorship by silence. It
continues to this day!
After two weeks more of Los Angeles County Jail Tank 12B I
I was sped by train back to Fort Worth, Texas.
Prisoner names at the Los Angeles County Jail are called daily
by tank trusties for transportation to county road camps, state
prisons and Federal penitentiaries. "Roll-up" is yelled. P r i soners whose names are called roll up their blankets and mattresses, line up to await opening of the tank cell doors. They
carry the bedding down several stair flights to receptacles, then
march to the civilian clothing storage room to shed jail overalls
and "dress out" in civilian clothes. A deputy handcuffs them in
pairs, linked to a chain, and they are taken down an elevator to
the first floor. On A p r i l 17, I got my roll-up call. Four and one
half months of maltreatment, inadequate food and lack of exercise
in county jails in California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas had
74

p h y s i c a l l y weakened and d e m o r a l i z e d m e . L e a v i n g the o v e r crowded L i o s A n g e l e s County J a i l c e l l tank, and what I h3.d been
living with was a r e l i e f . T h e heavy, soggy m a t t r e s s and c u m b e r some blankets were too m u c h of a load for m e . T w i c e m y weakened legs gave way and each time I stumbled the heavy load fell
to the floor.
A l l the departing p r i s o n e r s , except m y s e l f , knew their d e s t i n ation and sentence to be s e r v e d . A l l I knew was that I had been
d e c l a r e d insane. I did not know where I was going. J a i l deputies
told me it would be to a F e d e r a l hospital or m e n t a l institution
somewhere i n the United States for " p s y c h i a t r i c treatment" and i f
m y "sanity" r e t u r n e d , I'd be brought back to court for t r i a l .
O t h e r w i s e , if I was not r e t u r n e d for a t r i a l in a few months I'd be
c o m m i t t e d for life to an insane a s y l u m .
The deputies said they s a w nothing wrong with m y "sanity." If
they had, I would have been p l a c e d i n s o l i t a r y confinement and not
allowed to mingle with other p r i s o n e r s . T h e y believed I'd soon
be found " s a n e " and brought back to stand t r i a l .
M y letters of appeal to the U . S. C o u r t of A p p e a l s had been
m a i l e d , I was told by the j a i l deputies. T h e y w e r e m y only hope
of reopening the case. I was not allowed to contact anyone else
on the outside. M y requests to the U . S. M a r s h a l for c l e a n clothing and r e p l a c e m e n t of socks and underclothes which had rotted
off m e , had been i g n o r e d . T h e deputies at the clothing r o o m s a i d
the U , S, M a r s h a l had refused to send over clean clothing f r o m
m y luggage. A l l I had were dirty, sweat-soaked t r o u s e r s and
shoes. A deputy found a d i s c a r d e d , o v e r - s i z e d s h i r t and I put it
on.
M y status as a p r i s o n e r , d e c l a r e d insane yet j a i l e d and c o n fined with p e r s o n s convicted of c r i m e s gave me a feeling of b e wilderment.
I had not been convicted of any offense.
M y own
doctors were not allowed to testify. A few weeks p r e v i o u s l y , five
doctors had found me sane after a month of tests and observation.
I knew the rottenness of the p o l i t i c s which saw to it that I was
not brought to t r i a l for alleged libeling of L o s A n g e l e s County and
state officials. T h i s alleged offense is only a m i s d e m e a n o r charge
and yet I had been " r a i l r o a d e d " as a c r i m i n a l l y insane felon. The
confiscated evidence p r o v e d without doubt m y statements were
not libelous and that those I had a c c u s e d were i n r e a l i t y t h e " c r i m r
i n a l s " who should have been prosecuted. But I a l s o knew, for I
had e x p e r i e n c e d it, the extent of the decadence and c o r r u p t i o n i n
both the government and the j u d i c i a r y . I had only s c r a t c h e d the
surface on what I had uncovered and t r a c e d back to the t i m e when
the F r a n k l i n D . Roosevelt A d m i n i s t r a t i o n took office and initiated
the entrenchment of homosexxial s u b v e r s i v e s , and C o m m u n i s t s i n
i n F e d e r a l government. It was part of the international s y n d i c a l i s m c o n s p i r a c y i n the creation of the U n i t e d Nations to sabotage
and destroy the A m e r i d a n t r a d i t i o n a l way of l i f e .

T h e l i b e r t i e s and freedoms, t r a d i t i o n a l with A m e r i c a n s , were
c u r t a i l e d by subverting the Constitution and its B i l l of Rights.

"Executive Orders" from the White House are shattering the soverign rights of the states. Those rights had been mandatedby the
Constituiton in the creation of the Republic. Nowhere in the Constitution is there provision for a socialistic "democracy. " Alien
philosophies now permit government pressure groups to create
legislation that shackle freedoms of the Christian majority.
I recalled working as a reporter on an Albany newspaper when
Roosevelt was Governor of New York State. I remembered the
"queers," faggots, "fairies" and Communists on state payrolls
during his regime, and how many became integral cogs of his socalled "Brain Trust" when he was elected to the Presidency in
1932.
A s I waited in the clothing room to be shackled to handcuffs, I
realized the significance of what I had uncovered in the nationwide
secret homosexual organization operating in major cities.
The charges I had made--that Los Angeles County is a cesspool of perversion with homosexual influence and power corrupting the government administtative agencies and courts--were understatements.
What better "TrojanHorse" could the Kremlin use to infiltrate
government than homosexuals, outcast and outlawed by civilized
people since Bibical days. Their deviant sexual practices are in
defiance of society's moral codes. FDR had sown the seeds for a
"Democracy" decadence of the United States.
I thought of my status, not as a convicted criminal, but as a
person condemned as a "paranoid," a Marxist definition of a psychiatric illness labeled as insanity. Communist and homosexual
attorneys follow the Kremlin Mental Health Manvial directives to
discredit accusers, thus diverting their attention from their own
subversive and un-American activities.
The charge against me was alleged libel. This is in a lower
category than most traffic offenses. Accused officials and politicians use "libel" as a defense "crutch" against accusers - - never
risking an open court trial but resorting to tyrannyand subterfuge.
There was a time when honor, decency, and integrity built an
image of respect for the Justice Department. However, in these
"changing times, " starting with a sugar-coated "New Deal" and
proceeding to what is now known as a "New Frontier, " corrupt
political practices, accented with lavender and pinko deceit, are
now the order of the day.
Convicted murderers, rapists, narcotic peddlers, and c r i m inals of similar ilk are protected by laws guaranteeing them human and civil rights. But those who are falsely accused of mental illness are deprived of all legal protection, human and Constitutional rights. This I not only experienced, but was soon to witness and further learn the criminality of "psychiatric therapy."
Unbridled license and authority are given to sadists calling themselves psychiatrists to maim and destroy hunxan beings. I was
soon to join the "guinea pigs" in a hell-hole penitentiary, deceptively called a Federal Medical Center "Hospital. "
I was handcuffed to a convicted bank bandit and shackled to
chains linking ten other prisoners. We were herded from the
county jail clothing room onto an elevator that took us to the first
floor. When the other prisoners were brought down we were r e 76

grouped,and handcuffed, shackled again to chains and led out to

board a prison bus. The first stop was at the railroad yards,
where the Federal prisoners were taken off and were put on a
train coach, seated and shackled with leg irons. I was among
twelve Federal prisoners who were under sentences 20 years to
life.
The dinner brought to us on the train was my first decent meal
in more than six weeks. We slept in pullmanbeds in pairs chained
and shackled. Two days later we arrived at Fort Worth and were
led off the train by six U.S. Marshals to the rail platform, u n chained and regrouped again. I was put into a car with two U, S.
Marshals.
We rode to the county jail where I was put in a small, dirty
reception cage. For six hours I stood waiting-to again be fingerprinted and mugged. My luggage was put into storage. A paper
plate of mush and a tin cup of coffee was given to me. After being mugged and fingerprinted, I was taken up in an elevator to a
cell block housing five coutity prisoners. For five days I was kept
there. Three meager meals on tin plates and distasteful coffee
were given us daily. I again asked the deputies for a change of
clothing, for writing material, and whether they knew my destination.
I was told the U.S. Marshal had left orders I was not to be given
anything from my luggage nor allowed to send letters out. I was
told my destination was unknown. It was my belief that since I
was in Fort Worth, I'd be returned to the Federal hospital prison
there. I looked forward to clean clothes, adequate and wholesome
food again as well as decent treatment.
On the fifth day I was brought down to the booking room where
two U.S. Marshals handcuffed me to chains. My luggage was
loaded in the rear of a car and we drove off. Near the city limits
the car pulled over to the curb and parked. The driver turned in
his seat, facing me, and said: "Seelig, do you know where you're
going? "
"No, when I learned I had arrived in Fort Worth I thought I
was going back to the U.S. Public Health Service Hospital prison."
The marshal at the wheel told his companion to take off the
handcuffs. "We'll take off the shackles, but when we get to Springfield, Missouri, we'll have to rechain and shackle you before we
deliver you to the Medical Center for Federal Prisoners. We'll
be there about 6 o'clock," the marshal said. "We read your commitment papers and looked into your file," he continued. "There's
something fishy about it.
It wasn't many weeks ago you were
found sane and competent by the top Federal doctors here. How
come you were moved to another Federal district?"
"I thought my case was being transferred for trial in Los A n geles but they brought in a Los Angeles County and state doctor
to testify I am insane. "
"Someone is damn anxious to salt you away. Who are you supposed to have slandered?"
" A number of California judges and officials. It's a homosexual case. I tried to save my children from perverts who are protected from prosecution in Los Angeles. I uncovered corruption
and accused the officials and judges of espousing homosexuality

A g u a r d e s c o r t e d me through a maze of tunnels to what i s known

I was told I had a r r i v e d too late for dinner and I was l o c k e d i n
a s m a l l c e l l containing only a cot. E a r l y the next m o r n i n g , m y
c e l l door was opened and I was told to m a r c h i n line with other
p r i s o n e r s to the p r i s o n mess h a l l . It i s c a l l e d the " m a i n l i n e . "
A f t e r breakfast, we r e t u r n e d to the r e c e p t i o n w a r d c e l l s and were
l o c k e d up again.
T h e r e was no reading m a t e r i a l . M y cigarettes had been taken
f r o m m e . We could have tobacco and paper to r o l l c i g a r e t t e s , but
if you didn't know how to r o l l cigarettes you w e r e out of l u c k . I
didn't know how. T h e r e was no space i n the c e l l to w a l k m o r e
than three steps. A p r i s o n e r either sits on the cot o r l i e s down
waiting for a " m a i n l i n e " c a l l to the mess h a l l for m e a l s .
A f t e r three days of s o l i t a r y confinement, a guard opened m y
door, told me to j o i n a w o r k c r e w of p r i s o n e r s mopping the c o r r i d o r of T e n B u i l d i n g . I joined the c r e w and after mopping I was
o r d e r e d to follow a dozen p r i s o n e r s .
We U'ere taken through the tunnel to a r o w of heavy food c a r t s .
E a c h of Us was a s s i g n e d a c a r t to push through the tunnel and up
steep r a m p s to p s y c h i a t r i c t o r t u r e - p u n i s h m e n t w a r d s . P r i s o n e r s confined on those wards a r e not a l l o w e d to eat i n the " m a i n

r o l l i n g back down. A n o t h e r p r i s o n e r came along and helped push
i t up the r a m p . I w a l k e d back to the r e c e p t i o n r o o m and t o l d the
g u a r d I woud not attempt pushing c a r t s a g a i n .
" Y o u ' l l either w o r k as I t e l l you or w e ' l l keep you l o c k e d
i n your c e l l . Maybe w e ' l l give you a few days i n the ' h o l e '
to change your m i n d , " the guard r e p l i e d .
F o r two days I was l o c k e d i n the c e l l . I was not a l l o w e d out
except for m e a l s . L a t e r , a g u a r d came for me and I was taken
with the other p r i s o n e r s to a clothing r o o m , given a convict u n i f o r m and then taken to the shoe r o o m where an o l d p a i r of sweatsoaked shoes, too tight for m y feet, w e r e given me to put on.
The "shoe t o r t u r e " was the s t a r t of the p s y c h i a t r i c punishment

years wondering whenhe is going to get atrial. He has no friends

or relatives on the outside. "
"Unconvicted prisoners are not paid for labor. For the first
three months 'cons' work for free. But, imagine pushing a trash
cart seven days a week from morning to evening for 15 years
without a cent of pay. "
We reached the ward. What I had been told was frightening.
The prison servitude is federalized penal slavery. And I knew I
was in the category as a "ward" of U . S. Attorney Genersl Robert
Kennedy--the same as Sink, Coates, Marvin, and the others in
the penitentiary who were imprisoned for alleged "insanity. " I
realized how much I was at the mercy of the young prison doctors
who call themselves psychiatrists.
WhatI was to learn, witness and experience the next 19 months
was appalling. My life had already been shattered by the perversion influence and cor ruption in California and Los Angeles County
but more corrupt and criminal was the Department of Justice administration methods under Robert Kennedy which had imprisoned
me. This was when President Kennedy was making hysterical
and emotional pleas for civil rights and social equality for all
minorities. He was also pressing Congress for passage of more
mental health legislation. Not told was, that it would tighten a
Communist police state on the nation. Meanwhile, his brother,
Robert, by subterfuges and deception, was scuttling the soverign
rights of states and undermining Constitutional rights.
I recalled the threat made by Attorney Seton, that, unless I
changed my plea to guilty of libel, there was no intent to permit
a trial or hearing on any phase of government perversion-- I'd
be declared insane and be imprisoned the rest of my life. Those
are the methods of prosecution in Soviet Russia.
I had heard, prior to my arrest, the Kennedy Administration
intended to establish a psychiatric police state patterned after
what was established in the Soviet, but, like the majority of Americans, I did not believe it. Such legislation, I believed, would be
treason to American freedoms and liberties, due process of law,
and the B i l l of Rights safeguards against tyranny. But, Kennedy
--with the help of Communist-front mental health advocates and
tax-free foundations sponsoring Marxist d o c t r i n e s r a m r o d d e d
through Congress almost a replica of the insidious mental health
legislation of the Soviet and its regimented captive slave nations.
I experienced the tyranny which goes with it. I learned that 20 of
the Ward 2-2 East prisoners were serving life for murders. Some
were feeble-minded and were near 80 years of age. The prisoner
I had become acquainted with walked me back to a so-called r e creational room. The guards call it the "sun room. " It had no
recreational facilities, but two large tables used by prisoners to
pencil letters to persons who were "approved" by the Bureau of
Prisons for correspondence.
On most other wards there were games--table tennis, dominoes, checkers, and playing cards--but none on 2-2 East. The
imbeciles and zombies destroy or scatter them, flushing checkers and dominoes down toilets. They live in a world within themselves and seldom uttered any words. They were inoffensivementally and physically too weak to attack anyone. Those of us

Pavlovian Psychiatric Atrocities Maim

Nude Prisoners in Torture 'Drain Holes'
As a newspaperman I had known many mobsters and gangsters
in the Midwest and in the East. I was learning what it was like in
prison. Ex-convicts had told me Springfield was more brutal than
Alcatraa--now, I would experience it.
There was less obscene language among the prisoners than in
the Los Angeles County Jail. There had been practically none in
the county jails in Fort Worth, Alberquerque, Raton Pass, and
Kansas City and Kansas tounty seat jails. The maltreatment and
obscenity was worst in Amarillo, Phoenix and Los Angeles county
jails.
I sat on the prison yard bench meditating--most of the prisoners were serving 20 years to life and I was supposed to be in a
Federal hospital for psychiatric treatment until I "understood"
the charges against me, could assist counsel in my defense, and
until my thinking had been changed to what was acceptable to the
U . S . Attorneys and the politically stacked Federal Courts.
A guard in the yard blew a whistle. It meant the yard period
wa over. The prisoners walked to their respective buildings and
I joined a group headed for Two Building. I did not see Joe again
until I was in the ward. It was after a guard yelled "count," which
meant all prisoners were to "freeze" where they stood or sat until two guards went through-the ward and counted the prisoners to
make certain no one was missing. Three times daily the count
was made and twice during the night.
After the count, I walked into the recreation room. Joe came
over to me. "Seelig, a letter has arrived for you from the A p peals Court. Don't ask for it. You might get it tonight, tomorrow, or a week from now. But you've been granted the appeal on
constitutional rights. Also you have a credit of some sixty dollars. Any day now, unless the psychiatrists hold it up, you should
be able to make purchases at the commissary," Joe told me. He
gave me a cigarette and continued, "The old-timers here tab new
arrivals. We have a grapevine system on what is going on; what
"screws" (guards) are being transferred and why; the "cons" being shifted to other prisons. We know who the stool pigeons are

j o i n the others.
S e v e r a l of the maintenance w o r k e r s came i n . T h e y had been
mopping and p o l i s h i n g the tunnel f l o o r . Those who w e r e c o n v i c ted felons r e c e i v e d five to fifteen d o l l a r s a month. The u n c o n victed, w i t h " P " n u m b e r s , w e r e not p a i d . The l a b o r was l i s t e d

The lunch " m a i n l i n e " c a l l was y e l l e d . I t i e d the l a c e s on m y
shoes; that i s one of the r u l e s . S h i r t s must a l s o be buttoned. I
w a l k e d w i t h s e v e r a l of the tunnel w o r k e r s to l u n c h . When we r e turned to the w a r d I went to m y l o c k e r d r a w e r . The two cartons
of cigarettes were gone. I r e p o r t e d it to C a l l a h a n and he laughed.
"One of the loons p r o b a b l y got t h e m , " he r e p l i e d . " M a y b e I can
find them for you, S e e l i g , but f i r s t , I ' d l i k e you to do a job for

C a l l a h a n s m i l e d . "Whether y o u ' r e tinder sentence for c o n v i c t i o n

accept it y o u ' l l get the h e l l beaten out of you u n t i l you do, " he
s a i d , and w a l k e d off to the front gate. One of the tunnel w o r k e r s
o v e r h e a r d it and s a i d C a l l a h a n w o u l d r e p o r t m y r e f u s a l to w o r k
to the w a r d p s y c h i a t r i s t , D r . L o u i s B u r g e r .
" Y o u ' l l be l u c k y i f you don't go to the hole for a month or so. "
he told m e . " C a l l a h a n i s among the w o r s t s a d i s t i c g u a r d s . "
The afternoon y a r d c a l l was shouted. I w a l k e d i n the elevator;
p s y c h i a t r i s t B u r g e r and C a l l a h a n stood nearby t a l k i n g . When I
came back f r o m the y a r d there was another g u a r d on duty. The
g u a r d shift had changed. I was not taken to a d r a i n - h o l e .
M y legs were painful and I decided to take a hot shower. It
would give me r e l i e f f r o m the shoes. I had not been i n the shower
but a few minutes when I h e a r d a shout. "Get the h e l l into the sunr o o m . " I kept on showering but not for long. I was about to w i t ness the p r i s o n "goon squad" i n a c t i o n and r e c e i v e m y f i r s t beating. The squad i s made up of guards t r a i n e d i n b r u t a l i t y . T h e y
had s t o r m e d into the y a r d and w e r e h e r d i n g p r i s o n e r s into the
r e c r e a t i o n r o o m . T h e y are m e r c i l e s s and act l i k e b e a s t s . F r o m
the shower I saw zombies and insane being pushed out of the w a r d .
One of the goons, whose face and name I s h a l l never forget, came
into the shower r o o m . I looked up at h i m . H i s fist caught me on
90

the side of the head. "When you hear an o r d e r - - o b e y i t ! "

he
s n a r l e d . I t r i e d to stand up and was k n o c k e d back on the bench
again w i t h a blow to m y stomach. " D o you want m o r e or a r e you
going to o b e y ? " I m o v e d t o w a r d the door. He gave me a shove.
It s p r a w l e d me outside the door. He stood over m e . I got to m y
feet and s t a r t e d w a l k i n g t o w a r d the r e c r e a t i o n r o o m . I was the
l a s t to enter the r e c e p t i o n r o o m . I l e a r n e d l a t e r that the goon's
name was R o w a n .
The goons made shambles of the w a r d , s t r e w i n g m a t t r e s s e s ,
blankets and contents a l l over the f l o o r . It was a "shakedown"
for contraband. T h e y had done the same thing to a l l the w a r d s of
Two and T h r e e B u i l d i n g s . D u r i n g the shakedown we were l o c k e d
i n the r e c r e a t i o n r o o m . The door was not opened u n t i l after they
left the w a r d . A w a r d g u a r d o r d e r e d everyone to p i c k up his matt r e s s , sheet and blanket and r e m a k e h i s bed. When the outside
w o r k e r s r e t u r n e d they remade t h e i r beds. The w a r d o r d e r l i e s
d i d the sweeping and mopping.
When the m a i l c a l l came, m y p r i s o n number was y e l l e d out. I
went to the gate w h e r e m y l e t t e r f r o m the court was handed m e .
It s a i d m y appeal had been docketed M a y 1, 1961 on v i o l a t i o n of
c o n s t i t u t i o n a l r i g h t s . I showed i t to Joe and a s k e d h i m what r e p l y was expected of m e . I had no t r a i n i n g or experience i n w r i t ing documents and d i d not know l e g a l p r o c e d u r e s . " W r i t e a l e t t e r to the court that as soon as you can get l e g a l l i b r a r y t i m e you

ask one of the con attorneys to give you some h e l p .
T h e r e was g r u m b l i n g among the p r i s o n e r s on the shakedown.
The goons, I l e a r n e d , p e r i o d i c a l l y s t o r m e d into w a r d s b r i n g i n g
l a r g e t r a s h cans for magazines and books, l e t t e r s and e x t r a s h i r t s
and other clothing they take f r o m the l o c k e r s . Once w e e k l y there

clean u n i f o r m s , s h i r t s and u n d e r - g a r m e n t s .
They c a r r y their
d i r t y clothing to r e c e p t a c l e s . C l e a n socks a r e given out twice
w e e k l y on the w a r d s . I t o l d Joe about the theft of the cigarettes
and the blows f r o m the goon. " T h a t ' s u s u a l for the g o o n s , " he

they were r e l e a s e d through the efforts of a U . S . Senator. T h e i r
friends had made a public i s s u e of t h e i r i m p r i s o n m e n t - - and the
p s y c h i a t r i s t s and the J u s t i c Department fear public s c r u t i n y !
D u r i n g the evening y a r d c a l l , Joe a c c o m p a n i e d me to see R o b ert Stroud, a felon s e r v i n g compounded life t e r m s . He was a l s o
known as "The B i r d m a n of A l c a t r a z . " Joe b r i e f e d me on Stroud:
"He's on the c r a p l i s t of most of the "cons, " but he's one
of the best l e g a l b r a i n s among u s . He wrote a h e l l u v a good
book on b i r d s . A l l he knew was what he had r e a d i n p r i s o n
l i b r a r y books.
"Stroud has the best set of l a w books i n the joint. W e ' v e
a l r e a d y t a l k e d to h i m about you and-he'd l i k e to meet you. If
he can't help, w e ' l l t r y somebody e l s e . "
Stroud was about 70 y e a r s o l d ; for n e a r l y 50 of those years he
had been kept i n s o l i t a r y confinement. He had k i l l e d s e v e r a l b r u tal, s a d i s t i c guards; Stroud t o l d me about it and a l s o how he had
been r e c r u i t e d into h o m o s e x u a l i t y after y e a r s ofbeing i n p r i s o n s .
The l a t t e r , he c l a i m e d , didn't o c c u r u n t i l after the p s y c h i a t r i s t s
made t h e i r p r i s o n appearance w i t h t h e i r sexual deviate t h i n k i n g .
F o r the m o t i o n p i c t u r e rights of what p u r p o r t e d to be his p r i son life s t o r y , Stroud t o l d me he had been p a i d $30, 000. 00. A l l
of t h i s , he a s s e r t e d , went to J u s t i c e Department " a p p r o v e d " attorneys i n h i s l e g a l fight to obtain f r e e d o m on p a r o l e or on c o n ditional release.
Two other m a n u s c r i p t s he had w r i t t e n , he attested, detailed
what he had seen, experienced, and knew of penal b r u t a l i t y , t o r ture and nnanslaughter of p r i s o n e r s - -how many w e r e u s e d as e x p e r i m e n t a l guinea pigs by p s y c h i a t r i s t s and d o c t o r s - i n - t r a i n i n g ,
using C o m m u n i s t developed p s y c h i a t r i c techniques on the m i n d s
and nerves of p r i s o n e r s .
Although the F e d e r a l B u r e a u of P r i s o n s and the J u s t i c e Department p e r m i t t e d p u b l i c a t i o n of the " B i r d m a n of A l c a t r a z " and
its f i l m i n g as a m o t i o n p i c t u r e under t h e i r c e n s o r s h i p , they
banned r e l e a s e to the public of h i s two m a n u s c r i p t s - - t h o s e c o n s t r u c t i v e i n the exposure of K r e m l i n penal s a v a g e r y i n the U . S.
The F e d e r a l p r i s o n b u r e a u c r a t s , i n c l u d i n g the J u s t i c e D e p a r t ment's exponents of m a y h e m and c o r r u p t i o n - - R o b e r t K e n n e d y and
Katzenbach--gave the r e a s o n that Stroud was a " w a r d " of the U . S.
A t t o r n e y G e n e r a l , that he had no c i v i l or p r o p e r t y rights and that
his m a n u s c r i p t s w e r e government p r o p e r t y ! Stroud's death, a
few y e a r s ago, was announced as a "heart attack. "
H e a r t attacks and c o n f i s c a t i o n of p r o p e r t y have become a way
of government for a c c u s e r s since the Kennedys and K a t z e n b a c h
have been i n the saddles of p o w e r . In m y a r r e s t and i m p r i s o n ment, a l l m y p r o p e r t y was s e i z e d , i n c l u d i n g m a n u s c r i p t s , f i l m
s c r i p t s , and t i t l e s of ownership r e p r e s e n t i n g $60, 000. 00 e s t a b l i s h e d m a r k e t value.
W a r d e n Settle, his J u s t i c e Department aide, R o b i n N i c h o l a s ,
and the p r i s o n p s y c h i a t r i s t s , made i t c l e a r to me that I was a
" w a r d " of the U . S. A t t o r n e y G e n e r a l and the F e d e r a l B u r e a u of
P r i s o n s ; had no c i v i l or p r o p e r t y r i g h t s ; could not dispose of any
p r o p e r t y I had, and the F e d e r a l G o v e r n m e n t could do w i t h it as
it p l e a s e d . None of m y p r o p e r t y was ever r e t u r n e d to m e . That

was part of the psychiatric "punishment therapy" for "improper

thinking" in making charges against government officials and the
judiciary!
Joe had informed Stroud of my determination not to subnait to
the psychiatrists or the guards.
"Seelig, " he declared, "I'll do what I can for you. Get a
pass to the library. I work in the book bindery. Tonight I'll
draw up a habeas petition for you. T e l l the librarian you
want to see me. I'll have the document ready for you. Don't
talk to me in the library. I'll drop it on the floor. Put it in
your shoe. When you get in the legal workshop, type it, and
then destroy my copy. "
Stroud walked away, joining a couple of his cronies who were
waiting for him.
Despite our plans, I was not to get the chance to see Stroud
again for six weeks for I was soon to receive more psychiatric
therapy. When we returned to the ward, Joe told me to ask the
"ward desk" officer for a couple of "cop-out" forms. In the recreation room he helped me fill them out. In one I requested legal
workshop time, and in the other I asked for time in the prison l i brary. These requests are sent to the ward psychiatrist and, if
he initials them, the requests are granted.
The next morning after breakfast, I was ordered by thejward
desk officer to go to the property office. I was given a pass and
told how to get to the office, which is located in the tunnel across
from the prison library.
Two guards in the property room had already dumped the r e maining contents of my two large duffel bags on the floor. Nearby were my two large suitcases, a forty dollar dictionary along
with other expensive books, a new portable typewriter for which
I had paid $146.00, 10 reams of paper, about $30.00 worth of carbon paper, recording tapes of my children talking and singing,
and about $2, 000. 00 worth of clothing.
Among the many items missing, aside from the vast evidence
and correspondence files, were the motion picture scripts and
story properties and the receipt titles of registered ownership.
The Justice Department had confiscated everything I owned i n cluding birth certificate and all identification papers. I was i m poverished to prevent my having funds to seek legal aid.
In five months, my luggage and property had been transported
across the country in the alleged custodial care of the U . S. marshals and the Justice Department. I had not been allowed to send
anything to relatives or members of my family. Nor was I a l lowed to write them. When I tried the letters were not mailed.
Missing with the evidence files and material were personal papers; correspondence, including income tax files; all court documents and material involving the Los Angeles County Superior
Courts; names and addresses of my witnesses; dates of incidents;
what occurred in Juvenile Court; data on the county social service workers (protecting and aiding homosexuals to escape investigation and prosecution); material and copies of U . S . Senate documents on homosexuals in government; photostats and photocopies
from London on organized homosexual international syndicalism,
their role in U . S. Foreign offices; as well as more than 40 per93

But, most i m p o r t a n t of a l l to me was the m a t e r i a l and evidence
i n behalf of m y daughter and son that was so damaging to the L o s
A n g e l e s County A d m i n i s t r a t i o n and the j u d i c i a r y , as w e l l as the
p e r v e r t " s l u s h funds" u s e d i n state and national elections to put
into public office, candidates favorable to t h e m for t h e i r support
and patronage (that i n c l u d e d a C a l i f o r n i a U . S. Senator! )
I had l e a r n e d the h o m o s e x u a l influence and power r e a c h e d into
both the D e m o c r a t i c and R e p u b l i c a n p a r t i e s , a l l government agenc i e s and departments, state and F e d e r a l , i n c l u d i n g C o n g r e s s and

affiliated o r g a n i z a t i o n s .
Since then, s e v e r a l C o n g r e s s i o n a l c o m m i t t e e investigations
have substantiated portions of what I had u n c o v e r e d but have been
s u p p r e s s e d f r o m the p u b l i c . The h o m o s e x u a l s o c i e t i e s and C o m m u n i s t deceptive fronts have come out into the open since g i v e n
supportive d e c i s i o n s by the U . S. Supreme C o u r t .
The evidence and m a t e r i a l I had a c c u m u l a t e d was so damaging
to the national D e m o c r a t i c P a r t y and e s p e c i a l l y to C a l i f o r n i a , that
i n J u l y , 1959, John F . Kennedy, then a U . S. Senator f r o m M a s sachusetts, c o r r e s p o n d e d at length w i t h a L o s A n g e l e s D e m o c r a t i c attorney who had been a p o l i t i c a l i n t i m a t e of h i s father, J o s e p h
Kennedy. The a t t o r n e y ' s name was P a t Cooney. T h e r e i s a w i t ness as to the exchange of that c o r r e s p o n d e n c e and how damaging
the m a t e r i a l I had was on the h o m o s e x u a l p o l i t i c a l power dating
f r o m the F r a n k l i n D . R o o s e v e l t White House r e g i m e .
It was a l s o e m b a r r a s s i n g to the p r e s i d e n t i a l a d m i n i s t r a t i o n of
Dwight E i s e n h o w e r and the mviltiple thousands of homosexuals i n
the government. D u r i n g his tenure, the J u s t i c e Department, u n der U . S . A t t o r n e y G e n e r a l H e r b e r t B r o w n e l l , had a l r e a d y c l a m p e d
down and s i l e n c e d other a c c u s e r s of the C o m m u n i s t - h o m o s e x u a l
apparatus long known to be operating i n the government.
The
image of E i s e n h o w e r had been built to heights that weathered h i m
through the c o r r u p t i o n i n h i s r e g i m e , w i t h his top aide, Sherman

In the c l o s i n g days of the E i s e n h o w e r - B r o w n e l l a d m i n i s t r a t i o n
of the J u s t i c e Department, I was a r r e s t e d by a F e d e r a l officer
for a l l e g e d l i b e l . That made it easy for R o b e r t Kennedy and h i s
deputy when they took over the J u s t i c e Department. A n o t h e r Ike

political prisoner was Lucille Miller. She was imprisoned without a trial on a fraudulent psychiatric charge.
As soon as Kennedy and Katzenbach took office, the libel charge
against me was substituted with the Communist psychiatric subterfuge to get r i d of an accuser by prosecuting him for alleged
insanity instead of the arrest charge.
A person declared "mentally incompetent" (improper thinking
or writing what is called dangerous to accused public officials)-a "psychiatric illness"--has no human, civil, or property rights
and I had even less rights as a political prisoner of Robert Kennedy and his brother J . F . K. !
The Kennedy clan's "Midas wealth," estimated at over a b i l lion dollars, can buy unquestionable political immunity for the
family ad "sacred cows." Kennedy, Congressional records will
disclose, has literally thumbed his nose at Senate Committees
seeking to question him on his nefarious activities. His political
power and wealth make him immune to criminal prosecution.
So it is not really strange that neither the Kennedys,nor Johnson, nor Katzenbach have acknowledged or allowed due process
of law on my petitions for a redress of grievances. It has been
the practice of political scoundrels to maintain silence for elapsed
time to bury the corruption of their regimes.
The Springfield Penitentiary officials told me the government
had no storage space to keep a prisoner's personal belongings or
to safeguard his property, and that there was only one person to
whom I could send my luggage at my own expense--and that person was an attorney, Alex Rothenberg of Baltimore, Maryland.
It was obvious it meant I'd never see my personal belongings and
property again.
The guards told me the Justice Department had the power to
dispose of my property in any way they saw fit. I protested that
I wanted my belongings sent to my son, Philip, or my sister, M r s .
Henry D. Klopfer, of Schenectady, New York. It was refused.
The guard made a show of taking an inventory, listing items on
two forms, and quit. "This is taking too much time," he said.
I noticed that many articles were missing but my comments
were met with silence. I was ordered to sign the inventory sheet
and a slip for shipment to Rothenberg. I was told if I refused everything would be destroyed. They were liars and helped themselves to what they wantedl
By this time the property room had a gathering of guards. I
knew as soon as I left they woiald help themselves to what they
wanted. I was asked if I wished to donate the paper, dictionary,
books and office supplies to the penitentiary. I refused to give
anything to the Justice Department or the Federal prison. I was
ordered to return to my ward.
Some months later, I received a letter from Rothenberg stating
he got parcels of "rags" and old shirts, all of which he had donated to a charity; and a typewriter which had been smashed in the
mails. There was no mention of the $40.00 dictionary, a new
$30.00 electric razor or of anything else.
The following day, I was told D r . Burger had refused approval
to my requests to go to the prison library or to the legal workshops. I asked for some prison writing paper andwent to the rec95

At intervals, cold air gushed from the ventilator. I covered my

ears with the palms of my hands, sat down on the cement floor in
a corner, and then lay down. The shrill music numbed my mind;
within a few minutes I was in a stupor. Continuous, high-pitched
music can damage a person's mind, but, even without the music,
strip-nude drain-holes are a terrible ordeal to suffer weeks and
months.
I recall coming out of the stupor; the music had ceased. There
were four or five persons standing over me. A foot shoved my
head to one side. "He's still breathing."
"Move him out. " The voice was that of D r . Charles Keith, the
ward psychiatrist. I had just undergone Pavlovian ultra-sound;
a procedure civilized nations condemn as criminal and inhuman.
(Several months later, I typed an affidavit to the U . S . District
Court in Kansas City, Missouri, for which mailing was refused.
However, the carbon copy was overlooked when my legal files
were deleted. Prison rules prohibit mailing letters or documents
which mention brutality or torture, or anything that occurs in the
prison. Later, however, some of mine did get to the U. S. Supreme Court. In retaliation, months more of torture were inflicted on me. My health was destroyed.)
My vision was blurry in regaining consciousness.
(A strange
numbness and continuous throbbing within my head actually lingered for nearly two months before slowly diminishing.) As I recall it, several persons were walking out of the cell and D r . Keith
was among them. Keith was notorious in the penitentiary for experiments on prisoners' nervous systems. That I experienced!
During my final four months of incarceration I was a Keith guinea
pig in a 10-D cramped, nerve-breaking cell, and for the rest of
my life I'll remember him as a psychiatric fiend.
I remember a guard telling me to sit up. I was still lying on
the cement cell floor, too weak to get up on my feet. When I did
not respond to his order, he propped me in a sitting position
against the wall, gave me a paper cup of water and then helped
me to stand against the wall. Two guards led me out of the 10-B
drain-hole, gave me cloth shufflers for my feet, and pajama bottoms. I sat on the tier stairway and put them on. The pajanM.
bottoms were too large and had no cord around the waist; I held
them up with my hand. The guard gave me another cup of water,
then led me out of Ten Building into the tunnel to Two Building
again placing me in a strip-nude drain-hole cell. I collapsed on
the floor, remaining unconscious until the guards opened the cell
door shouting, "Do you want your supper?"
Roused by the racket, I got to my feet unassisted, managed to
traverse the cell to the door and was about to step out when one
of the guards warned: "Don't come out, kneel and reach for your
plate. " A paper plate of mushed food with a cardboard spoon on
it, was on the floor outside the open cell door. I knelt down,
braced myself with one hand, and with the other hand dragged the
food plate and a small paper cup of black coffee into my cell. The
steel door slammed shut.
I had no appetite for food and did not eat any of it. However, I
had a tremendous thirst and drank the coffee. About one-half hour
later the cell door opened and a guard ordered me to put the plate
97

on the floor outside of the c e l l door. He a s k e d me i f 1 wanted

water, noticed I hadn't touched m y food and when I requested w a ter he told me to extend the empty coffee cup. U s u a l l y only one
cup of water i s a l l o w e d , but he r e f i l l e d mine repeatedly until I
had quenched m y t h i r s t . T h r e e guards always stand by an opened
c e l l door i n Ten and Two B u i l d i n g s . A f t e r I had been given water
the c e l l was s l a m m e d and l o c k e d .
Sometime l a t e r my c e l l door was reopened by one guard who
was alone. T h i s was a v i o l a t i o n of p r i s o n rules but he was a new
guard who apparently had been shocked by the b r u t a l i t y he had
witnessed. I never saw h i m again after this incident.
"Seelig, you've had a rough time of i t , " he s a i d . " A l l of us
guards a r e n ' t b a s t a r d s . " I didn't say anything. He p u l l e d a c i g arette f r o m his package and offered it to me. I took it and he
flipped a flame f r o m his l i g h t e r . " N e v e r step out of the c e l l u n less you are told to do so. If you step out without being told,
y o u ' l l be hurt. When y o u ' r e i n a 'hole' obey o r d e r s and don't talk
back at any t i m e . I ' m giving you f r i e n d l y a d v i c e . B e c a r e f u l at
a l l times what you say to H o l m a n (the 2 - l E a s t w a r d p s y c h i a t r i s t ) .
The less you say, the sooner you may be back i n "population. "
He asked me why I had eaten so l i t t l e . I told h i m I had no a p petite. He then t o l d me that for three days and nights I had had
no food or water i n the 1 0 - B m u s i c hole. It s u r p r i s e d me for it
seemed as though i t had only been a few h o u r s .
" Y o u ' l l probably be here at least s e v e r a l w e e k s , " he continued.
"It depends on H o l m a n . D o n ' t antagonize h i m . P l a y i t c o o l . " He
gave me another cigarette and c l o s e d the door. A f t e r the c i g a r ette I was about s m o k e d out. I i g n i t e d the second and c a r e f u l l y
dropped the butt of the f i r s t down the d r a i n - h o l e . Reading m a t e r i a l and cigarettes a r e not a l l o w e d i n the h o l e s ; n o r do the p s y c h i a t r i s t s allow w r i t i n g paper, or d e l i v e r y of m a i l . The p r i s o n e r
i s nude, sleeps on the b a r e cement floor, and stands or paces a
few steps for e x e r c i s e .
T h i s was m y f i r s t - - b u t not my l a s t - - o r d e a l i n the d r a i n - h o l e s .
It was about two months before I r e c o v e r e d f r o m the effects of
the m u s i c t o r t u r e . I don't r e c a l l m u c h of those w e e k s ; i f it were
not for the carbons of documents i n m y f i l e s , there would be l i t t l e
I could w r i t e about those months of h o r r o r a n d t o r t u r e i n the Medi c a l Center penitentiary.
E a c h m o r n i n g after breakfast, the c e l l door i s opened, and a
guard hands i n a mop, a p a i l of hot water, and a b r u s h to scrub
the d r a i n - h o l e . It is flushed once d a i l y . A r e f u s a l to s c r u b it
r e s u l t s i n a beating. I never refused to c o m p l y w i t h an o r d e r of
f o r c e d labor i n the hole. M y r e s i s t a n c e was on the w a r d s . I saw
p r i s o n e r s taken to the shower r o o m for beatings. Often I stood
by the door and looked out the s m a l l , square, glass peep-hole. I
knew i f I was to s u r v i v e the holes and n e r v e - b r e a k i n g c e l l s w i t h
any sanity left, I ' d have to use m y i n t e l l i g e n c e against the p s y c h i a t r i s t s and guards who a r e s a d i s t i c , u n m e r c i f u l beasts when
g i v e n the slightest excuse.
W e e k l y , each p r i s o n e r i s taken out of the d r a i n - h o l e to the
s h o w e r . He i s given a safety r a z o r with a l o c k e d - i n blade to
shave. O r d i n a r y , cheap, bath soap i s used as lather to shave.
He i s then r e t u r n e d to h i s c e l l hole.

Beatings a r e u s u a l l y given i n the shower r o o m because it i s

m o r e convenient to hose off the blood w h i l e the v i c t i m l i e s unconscious on the f l o o r . When p r i s o n e r s fight off t h e i r guards i n the
c e l l s , three or four of the goons enter. The "therapy" beatings
are u n m e r c i f u l . The goon guards-knock the p r i s o n e r to the f l o o r ,
k i c k and stomp h i m u n t i l he i s u n c o n s c i o u s . R i b s are b r o k e n and
teeth k i c k e d out, and i f the v i c t i r h dies of i n j u r i e s it i s r e p o r t e d
as "heart attack, s u i c i d e , or a c c i d e n t a l death. "
E v e r y other day, the w a r d p s y c h i a t r i s t , w i t h two guards, e n t e r s the c e l l to observe the condition, attitude, and reactions of
the p r i s o n e r to such inane questions as: " H o w a r e you doing? . . .
Any complaints today?"
M y r e p l y was a l w a y s the same: " I ' m feeling fine, I have no
c o m p l a i n t s . " It s a t i s f i e d the p s y c h i a t r i s t . H e ' d w a l k on to the
next c e l l .
If a p r i s o n e r i n W a r d 10 or 2-1 E a s t d r a i n - h o l e or i n a s o l i t a r y
confinement c e l l berates a p s y c h i a t r i s t he i s l i k e l y to be taken
to the shower for "therapy" or be scheduled for e l e c t r o s h o c k s .
The p s y c h i a t r i s t s give i n s t r u c t i o n s to guards on e a c h p r i s o n e r .
Beatings a r e not g i v e n unless the p s y c h i a t r i s t gives the o r d e r or
if a p r o v o k e d p r i s o n e r attacks a g u a r d . P r i s o n e r s i n the holes
often go b e r s e r k because of t h i r s t or m a l t r e a t m e n t . A n d when
p r i s o n e r s die f r o m beatings, negligence, and h e a r t attacks i n duced by b r u t a l i t y , an accomodating G r e e n e County c o r o n e r w r i t e s
the death c e r t i f i c a t e s as he i s t o l d to do.
A c r o s s f r o m m y d r a i n - h o l e c e l l i n w a r d 2-1 E a s t was a p r i soner named B e r b e r . We frequently l o o k e d out the c e l l door peep
holes at each other. We would have had to y e l l for our v o i c e s to
c a r r y a c r o s s to one another w h i c h would have i n v i t e d a beating.
B e r b e r ' s head was a m a s s of f e s t e r i n g wounds, he was thin, weak
and b a r e l y able to w a l k . He was one of the m y s t e r y p r i s o n e r s
kept p e r m a n e n t l y i n the d r a i n - h o l e c e l l s .
Months l a t e r , when I was back i n a W a r d 2-1 E a s t d r a i n - h o l e ,
B e r b e r was found dead. The r e p o r t accepted by the c o r o n e r was
that B e r b e r had s t r a n g l e d h i m s e l f to death with a " c o r d " f r o m
h i s pajamas. When I saw h i m , he was nude; a l s o , there a r e no
c o r d s on p r i s o n pajamas.
They a r e h e l d up by the p r i s o n e r ' s
hand as he stands or w a l k s . M o r e o v e r , the pajama m a t e r i a l can
not be t o r n or r i p p e d . A n d , i f further proof i s needed, m e d i c a l
s c i e n t i s t s say it i s quite i m p o s s i b l e for a p e r s o n to strangle h i m self with his hands by twisting or p u l l i n g a c o r d around his neck.
He may lose c o n s c i o u s n e s s but when he does this he is too l i m p
to strangle h i m s e l f to death. In the event that he had somehow
p r o c u r e d a c o r d , d r a i n - h o l e s and s o l i t a r y c e l l s have no place to
tie the end of the c o r d . B e r b e r no doubt d i e d of s t r a n g u l a t i o n but
not l i k e l y by his own hands.
M a n y t i m e s I had to c r a w l for m y food and w a t e r . Nine t i m e s
I suffered the d r a i n - h o l e s , five i n 2-1 E a s t and four s e s s i o n s i n
10-B W a r d . T h e r e w e r e nights I did not expect to see another tom o r r o w . A f t e r four a d d i t i o n a l months i n the 10-D n e r v e - s h a t t e r ing c e l l I had l i t t l e r e s i s t e n c e left. M y only incentive to s u r v i v e
was my daughter and son. Without me they had no one to fight for
them.
In 2-1 E a s t , 1 0 - B , and 10-D fixtures of c o l o r e d l i g h t s are on
99

day and night. L a t e r , I l e a r n e d they are e x p e r i m e n t a l for the effect they have on a p e r s o n ' s m i n d . The m u s i c torture was i n tended not only to b r e a k m y health but to d e m o r a l i z e m e . D o c t o r s
have told me the incessant s h r i l l m u s i c penetrates the m i n d r e g a r d l e s s of stupor or onconsciousness.
C o m m u n i s t p s y c h i a t r i s t s and acientists i n Soviet R u s s i a for
m o r e than 40 y e a r s have experimented on a n i m a l s and p r i s o n e r s
w i t h c o l o r e d lights and m u s i c tempo to determine how much s t r a i n
and p r e s s u r e as w e l l as t o r t u r e and b r u t a l i t y an a n i m a l and a h u man m i n d can absorb before it becomes weakened and confused
b r e a k i n g down into t e m p o r a r y or complete i n s a n i t y .
Absolute obedience to guards and p s y c h i a t r i s t s is n e c e s s a r y
for effective b r a i n - w a s h i n g . That includes acceptance or penal
s e r v i t u d e - - m o p p i n g f l o o r s , cleaning toilet bowls, or any w o r k
a s s i g n e d . The punishment "therapy" i s a p e r s u a s i v e method of
breaking r e s i s t a n c e . The m u s i c t o r t u r e i s d i a b o l i c a l l y c r u e l . It
numbed my m i n d , and weeks a f t e r w a r d I felt fatigued and ment a l l y exhausted. I slept most of that month i n the 2-1 E a s t d r a i n hole as w e l l as i n the s o l i t a r y confinement c e l l into w h i c h I was
l a t e r moved. It had an i r o n cot but no m a t t r e s s . I was t r a n s f e r r e d f r o m there to N u m b e r T h r e e B u i l d i n g on W a r d 3-2 E a s t .
It was one of the p r e f e r r e d buildings i n the penitentiary.
In T h r e e B u i l d i n g there were only a few unconvicted p r i s o n e r s
and not many l i f e r s ; most sentences d i d not exceed 20 y e a r s .
Some were convicted for tax evasion and s i m i l a r non-violent fede r a l offenses. The r e c r e a t i o n r o o m had ping-pong and playing
c a r d s . A f t e r the work-day, bridge and hearts games were p l a y e d .
The felons soon knew I was too weak for another i m m e d i a t e d r a i n hole s e s s i o n and a d v i s e d me to r e g a i n m y strength before 1 r e sumed my p a s s i v e r e s i s t a n c e .
That meant submitting to w o r k
o r d e r e d by guards and p s y c h i a t r i s t s on the w a r d .
W i t h i n a few days, I was c a l l e d before the p r i s o n a d m i n i s t r a tive staff to be a s s i g n e d w o r k . The staff board was p r e s i d e d over
by A s s o c i a t e Warden Mayden, the p s y c h o l o g i c a l c l i n i c a l d i r e c t o r
R o b i n N i c h o l a s , and s e v e r a l p s y c h i a t r i s t s . I argued my c o n s t i tutional rights and berated them for the maltreatment. Mayden
i n f o r m e d me I had no rights; that under Sections 4244-46, I had
been d e c l a r e d insane and I was a " w a r d " of the U . S . A t t o r n e y Gene r a l . Mayden further stated I was to be " r e h a b i l i t a t e d " with whatever therapy the p s y c h i a t r i c staff believed would r e s t o r e my m i n d
to "sanity and proper t h i n k i n g . " He told me the staff had decided
my mental competence could be r e s t o r e d by doing j a n i t o r i a l w o r k .
When I s a i d m y p r o f e s s i o n was w r i t i n g and editing, he r e p l i e d he
did not believe I'd ever again be capable for e d i t o r i a l w o r k . He
then r e m i n d e d me: "We have p e r s u a s i v e ways of r e m o l d i n g your
mind. "
N i c h o l a s s a i d the W a r d 3-2 E a s t guard, Conway, would be notified I was a s s i g n e d to o r d e r l i e l a b o r . I asked h i m what the l a bor would be. "Anything M r . Conway o r d e r s you to do." N i c h o l a s
r e p l i e d . They o r d e r e d me to r e t u r n to the w a r d ; N i c h o l a s signed
m y pass. P r i s o n e r s leaving a w a r d a r e given a pass to r e a c h a
destination and it must be signed to r e t u r n to the w a r d .
Conway made no attempt to put me to w o r k that day. He was a
new guard, t r a n s f e r r e d f r o m L e a v e n w o r t h penitentiary, and the
100

prison "grapevine" reported he v/as sent to the Medical Center for

safety because of his brutality to Leavenworth felons and they had
plotted revenge.
Several of the felons on the ward had law books. I told them I
had appealed my case audit had been docketed. When they learned
I had not replied to the court letter or filed a document in support
of my appeal, I was advised to do so as soon as I could get legal
workshop time. I told them I had no training in legal work and
did not know what I should file. One of the felons gave me a law
book to'read and penciled the form to be followed in typing a document. He said the month I had spent in the drain-hole may have
invalidated my appeal. An answer is required within 30 days.
The Medical Center, I learned, discouraged prisoners from
appealing sentences and placed obstacles in the way. The felons
did not believe the incident causing me to be sent to the drainhole was for any other reason than to invalidate my appeal.
It was suggested I type an appeal for a 60 day extension of time
to file a brief and give the reason why I had not answered the
court. I penciled the petition on prison writing paper. The convicts told me to carry it in my shoe to the legal library and take
it out when the guard was not looking; type it, and destroy the
penciled petition.
It is against prison rules at Springfield for prisoners to assist
each other in legal work or to carry papers of any kind to the l e gal workshop. If caught, it means drain-hole punishmentl
The next day I was told by the ward desk-officer it would be
several days before legal workshop time would be available for
me. There were but four typewriters in the workshop for about
1, 300 prisoners. Very few prisoners were allowed legal workshop time. On an average, I learned, there are at least 60 p r i soners daily seeking time for legal work. My request for the legal workshop time included the reason that I had not answered the
letter from the court the previous month. The ward desk officer
assured me the prison legal workshop officer had scheduled me
for legal work.
Guard Conway called to me: "You have been assigned to orderlie labor. You will mop the floor twice daily. Later, I'll assign other jobs. The mopping has already been done for this
morning. " That afternoon, after lunch, I joined two other orderlies sweeping the floors and mopping. When the evening yard call
came, I went out and tried to find Joe. He had not come out, but
Stroud was in the yard and I walked over to him. He knew I had
been in the hole.
"You'll be lucky if your appeal is still alive," Stroud said, "the
cons in the record office have gone through your file. You have a
good case. Base your appeal on violations of constitutional rights
and non-jurisdiction of the Los Angeles courts. Send along an affidavit with the petition. They transferred you to Los Angeles on
Rule 21 and it was a phony procedure. "
Stroud said he did not want to be seen talking to me; he walked
off and I sat on a bench with several other prisoners. I did as
little walking as possible since the tight shoes were so painful.
On the ward, I took them off and either sat on the bed or lay down.
Evenings I played dominoes with my shoes off and placed under
101

the c h a i r .
Two days l a t e r I got m y c a l l and pass for the l e g a l w o r k s h o p .
I typed the petitions and an affidavit and tore up the p e n c i l e d c o p i e s . The affidavit r e v i e w e d b r i e f l y the t r i a l t r a n s f e r after I had
been found sane, and I c i t e d the F o u r t h , F i f t h , and Sixth A m e n d ments i n violations of constitutional r i g h t s .
M y filing of the petitions and affidavit was under f o r m a p a u p e r i s . A request to file i n f o r m a pauperis a l s o must be f i l e d with
each document, as w e l l as a c e r t i f i c a t i o n notice that copies were
put i n the m a i l for the U . S. A t t o r n e y . I also i n c l u d e d a p e t i t i o n
for t r a n s c r i p t s of the proceedings i n A m a r i l l o and L o s A n g e l e s ,
as w e l l as for r e c o v e r y of my confiscated evidence f i l e s .
The next day I was c a l l e d to the r e c o r d s office. W . L . Tappana,
the r e c o r d s officer, s a i d the petition for extension of t i m e had
been rejected. The r e a s o n I had given for not having r e p l i e d to
the c o u r t ' s letter t o l d of m y being i n the strip-nude drain-hole for
a month. Tappana s a i d nothing on p r i s o n "punishment therapy"
could be t o l d i n a p e t i t i o n to c o u r t s . He suggested I give another
r e a s o n , and i s s u e d me another pass to the w o r k s h o p for that afternoon. I had to cater to Tappana as he did the n o t a r i z i n g of the
documents and a s s i g n e d l e g a l w o r k s h o p t i m e .
The w a l k to the A d m i n i s t r a t i o n B u i l d i n g f r o m T h r e e B u i l d i n g
through the tunnel and back again was t o r t u r e on m y l a m e d l e g s .
Soft c o r n s had f o r m e d between the toes. When I got back to the
w a r d office, I a s k e d for m e d i c a t i o n for the corns and a l s o put i n
a request for p r o p e r fitting shoes. The desk officer told me the
p s y c h i a t r i s t s would have to approve i s s u a n c e of m e d i c a t i o n and
an o r d e r for shoes. B o t h requests w e r e i g n o r e d by the p s y c h i a trists.
That afternoon, I retyped the p e t i t i o n for extension of t i m e .
The other documents had not been m a i l e d . Tappana s a i d he would
wait on the p e t i t i o n and, after n o t a r i z i n g i t , he would send a l l the
documents at the same t i m e . The p e t i t i o n m e r e l y s a i d that due
to no fault of his (petitioner's) own he has been unable to p r o c e e d
i n the p r e p a r a t i o n and the p r e s e n t a t i o n of his appeal to the C o u r t .

Subscribed and Sworn
before me on this 2nd day
Frederick Seelig
of June, 1961.
The "boom" was lowered two days later. Guard Conway came
in the recreation room after I had helped do the morning mopping.
"Seelig, your bed is sloppy, " he said. "In the Navy, we could
bounce a half a dollar off the blanket. Hereafter, all beds on the
ward must be tight and snug. Redo your bed the way I want it. "
"I was not in the Navy, Conway, and I make the bed as I would
if I were in my own home. Show me how you want it. I don't
know, " I replied.
"Don't talk back to me, Seelig; address me as 'sir' or 'mister.' Do as you are told or you'll wish you had. " Conway walked
away. I went back to the ward, smoothed out the blanket, and
shoved the ends under the mattress a little more tightly. Whether
a half dollar could bounce, I didn't know. I returned to the recreation room.
A few minutes later, Conway returned, "I've got another job
for you. I want the floor polished to shine. See that polisher?"
I looked over to where he pointed. It was an enormous, heavy machine and I had no idea how to operate it. To maneuver that monster when every step was sheer agony, would soon have me crippled.
"Conway, I know nothing about machines, except a typewriter,
and until I get proper shoes, I'm not about to push that machine. "
Conway marched into the psychiatrist's office, returned, and
motioned to me. "Clean out your locker and put your .things in a
pillow case. " I returned to the ward and did as I was told.
"Okay, smart guy, follow me!"
It was the same story--back to the drain-hole in Ward 10-B.
At least the shoe torture was ended for a time, but sleeping nude
on a cold, damp, cement floor, in a room filled with the nauseating stench of an unflushed toilet, was a poor substitute.
The same stupidity prevailed with the psychiatric interrogation--"how are you feeling --have you any complaints?"
Dr. Keith was the interrogator.
"No complaints. How long will I be in here this time?"
"That's up to you, Seelig. Whenever your attitude changes we
will decide whether you can go back to population. " He and the
two guards walked out, not forgetting their usual psychological
malevolence, the slamming of the cell door.
About two weeks later, D r , Robin Nicholas visited me, claiming he was my "parole officer!" (Despite the fact that I was NOT
A CONVICTED PRISONER serving a sentence. )
"How would you like to work for me, typing in my office, Seelig?"
I was sitting in a corner against the wall. This was the "soft"
approach of Communist psychiatry- - just another technique to in103

"How m u c h w i l l I be paid, N i c h o l a s ? "
" S e e l i g , you don't know it, but Settle and I l i k e you. Y o u don't

" T w o weeks ago I might have c o n s i d e r e d an office job, N i c h o l a s , but now I ' l l do no penal slave w o r k , i f it means this hole permanently. A t least, my legs get r e l i e f . " I t o l d h i m .
N i c h o l a s g r i n n e d , he knew how difficult it was for me to w a l k .
He came o v e r to where I was sitting and told me to think it o v e r .
" I ' l l be back i n a w e e k - - m a y b e y o u ' l l change your m i n d . The offer s t i l l stands. "
M y obstinance p e r s i s t e d . " B e f o r e you go, N i c h o l a s , t e l l m e - how many f a i r i e s have you up i n that o f f i c e ? "
H i s countenance clouded. " T h a t ' s why y o u ' r e here, Seelig; you
have an o b s e s s i o n against people who a r e human beings, and they
have a r i g h t to enjoy l i v i n g , the same as you. He joined the guards
outside and the c e l l door s l a m m e d shut.
O v e r three weeks e l a p s e d before I was r e m o v e d f r o m the c e l l .
I was a g a i n a s s i g n e d to 2-2 E a s t , the w a r d of the insane. N i c h o las d i d not r e t u r n with his b r i b e r y offer and, for the time being,
no further efforts w e r e made to f o r c e me to w o r k .
I m m e d i a t e l y , I requested l e g a l w o r k s h o p t i m e . ( H a d it not

my court documents got into the m a i l !
The p r i s o n p s y c h i a t r i c staff put me through three i n q u i s i t i o n s .
A spotlight was focused on a c h a i r on w h i c h I was o r d e r e d to sit,
but I p r e f e r r e d to stand. I was surrounded by a c i r c l e of seated
p s y c h i a t r i s t s , p s y c h o l o g i s t s , p r i s o n officials and chaplains, i n cluding W a r d e r R . O. Settle and A s s o c i a t e W a r d e n J a m e s M y d e n ,

He kept his voice modulated, often so n o n - i n t e l l i g i b l e he was

W i l l the J u s t i c e Department play those tapes at a public h e a r ing, unaltered? They would explode the myth of i m a g e - b u i l t p s y chiatry.
On June 26, 1961, a l e t t e r f r o m C o u r t C l e r k S c h m i d read: "I

On August 7, my letter to the U . S. C o u r t of A p p e a l s said:

Meanwhile the tight shoes continued to aggravate the foot and

leg condition to the extent that I had to drag my feet when moving.
The psychiatrists and guards increased their pressure on me but
Appeals Court Clerk Schmid upset their plans by his correspondence with me. The Medical Center officials could not risk the
stoppage of my replies without running the risk of being in contempt of the Appellate Court.
Due to this, I was able to defy prison rules against disclosure
of maltreatment. In a document July 29, 1961, An Affidavit as
as Amendment to Case No. 1194:
"Diabolical techniques are being applied; endanger my
health and inflict cruel pain as "therapy." Old, sweat-soaked
shoes do not fit feet; cause unbearable pain to feet and legs,
deforming toes. Nerves of legs are raw. Proper fit shoes
still denied.
"Also, petitioner has had two meetings with psychiatrists
Nicholas and Burger. Both ridicule his contention homosexuals are perverts and have told him his "improper thinking"
will keep him here indefinitely. Prison officials tell him l i bel trial will give him ten-year sentence.
"Prison wing where he is quartered is known as "snake
pit" because most of prisoners are insane, imbeciles, morons, and zombies. His being there is punishment until he
submits to psychiatrists.
"He is told he is subject to compulsory labor in brush factory. Petitioner refuses to serve in psychiatric slave servitude. For writing this document he expects further psychiatric brutality. "
The above affidavit followed a letter to Clerk Schmid notifying
him to expect an "important document" in affidavit form. The
letter was mailed and so was the affidavit! However, Burger o r dered me to the drain-hole cell again. Infected sores on my legs
and feet caused me to crawl for my food, reducing me to the status of an animal.
More than thirty petitions, motions, and affidavits were put in
for mailing to Judge Yankwich's court. They sought hearings on
the rigged and corrupt proceedings; violations of constitutional
rights; bias; and his dual role as prosecutor and judge. None of
these were allowed hearings by Judge Yankwich. Appeals to the
U. S, Court of Appeals were also denied hearing.
It was the same story in the Kansas City and the St. Louis Federal Courts. Civil rights were scuttled--Los Angeles and Kansas
City Federal Courts ruled that the Federal Bureau of Prisoners
felon regulations also applied to unconvicted prisoners.
The U. S. Supreme Court received my appeal and petition for
Certiorari on or about November 11, 1961. It was accepted and
docketed December 19, 1961, as No. 841 Misc. My first documents supporting my appeal were refused by the U . S. Supreme
Court for non-compliance with the court's rules. The rules are
far more complicated than the lower courts. The Medical Center
refused to furnish a copy of the Supreme Court's rules book. On
my complaint, the Supreme Court mailed me a rules book. One
rule referred to another rule for compliance. Documents and affidavits must be as an amendment to the original docketed docu106

B r i e f s , affidavits, and amendments on my appeals case i n c l u ded the background on the C a l i f o r n i a State c a s e . In behalf of my

One petition, d e t a i l i n g the c r i m i n a l i t y of p s y c h i a t r i c

It was then m a i l e d as an a f f i d a v i t - e x h i b i t to the Supreme C o u r t .
E v e r y t h i n g I could document to the courts as proof of the c r i m i n a l i t y and d e s t r u c t i v e n e s s of p s y c h i a t r i c p r o s e c u t i o n was part of

On September 2, 1961, a motion for w r i t of habeas corpus for
hearing on the i l l e g a l i n j p r i s o n m e n t was r e t u r n e d to me with a
letter by K a n s a s C i t y F e d e r a l Judge R i c h a r d M . Duncan:
" T o d a y I a m i n r e c e i p t of your ' M o t i o n for W r i t of Habeas
C o r p u s ' w h i c h i s r e t u r n e d to you h e r e w i t h . The r e c o r d r e veals that you w e r e c o m m i t t e d to the i n s t i t u t i o n on A p r i l 24,
1961, under the p r o v i s i o n s of 4244-46. Y o u have not been i n
the institution quite five months, w h i c h i s not sufficient length
of time to jusj:ify the filing and c o n s i d e r a t i o n of a P e t i t i o n for

"The i n s t i t u t i o n i s m a k i n g r e g u l a r r e p o r t s to your c o m mitting judge, and I a m sure that the court w i l l give t h e m eve r y c o n s i d e r a t i o n . A f t e r you have been i n the i n s t i t u t i o n nine
months, this court might then c o n s i d e r your p e t i t i o n for W r i t
of Habeas C o r p u s . "
Judge Duncan, as w e l l as Judges Y a n k w i c h and G i b s o n , v i o l a ted the F i r s t A r t i c l e of the Constitution: " T h e p r i v i l e g e of the w r i t
of habeas corpus s h a l l not be suspended. " In effect, Judge D u n can i m p o s e d a n i n e - m o n t h sentence without t r i a l o r c o n v i c t i o n of
any offense whatsoever.
M y r e p l y was by documented l e t t e r on September 20, 1961:
" Y o u r l e t t e r with r e t u r n of my^petition for W r i t of Habeas
C o r p u s , was given to me today. Y o u denied m y r i g h t for a
107

W r i t of Habeas C o r p u s . The nine months is tantamount to a

sentence without t r i a l or conviction of any offense.
"The petition you returned contained ample ground for a
hearing and an investigation: V i o l a t i o n s of rights guaranteed
by the U . S . Constitution, Rules of P r o c e d u r e for U . S . C o u r t s ;
brutality, torture and v a r i e d f o r m s of maltreatment in county
j a i l s as w e l l as i n this F e d e r a l P e n i t e n t i a r y .
When I sought to appeal rulings of the K a n s a s C i t y F e d e r a l
C o u r t s , Judge R i c h a r d Duncan of K a n s a s C i t y denied that right.
H i s letter of October 16, 1961, stated:
"I declined you to p r o c e e d in f o r m a pauperis in the filing
and prosecution of the documents you sent here, on the
grounds that there were no allegations of a n y facts which
would confer j u r i s d i c t i o n upon this c o u r t . T h e r e f o r e , I a m
declining to p e r m i t you to file notice of appeal i n f o r m a p a u p e r i s , because there is nothing f r o m which to appeal. "
M y r e p l y to Judge Duncan follows:
"Your letter of October I6th returning documents, p e t i tioning for rulings on constitutional rights and confiscation of
evidence, stating I have not alleged any ground for W r i t of
Habeas C o r p u s , evidences e v a s i v e n e s s . It also d i s r e g a r d s
the Constitution. The C o u r t , in effect, condones i m p r i s o n ment, brutality and t o r t u r e . T h e C o u r t , under those c i r c u m stances should have the courage to t e l l me that I a m d i s f r a n c h i s e d as an A m e r i c a n ; that rights supposedly s a c r e d to a l l
A m e r i c a n s a r e junked. "
A f t e r a battle of letters and disputes on the B i l l of Rights, I
finally got appeals into the St. L o u i s U . S. C o u r t of A p p e a l s . T o r r i d l e t t e r s a l s o were exchanged. T h o s e l e t t e r s , damaging to the
appellate court judges, were seized f r o m m y p r i s o n legal file so
there would be no r e c o r d .
The St. L o u i s F e d e r a l Appellate C o u r t denied so many h e a r ings on'the B i l l of Rights that I made them exhibits in Amendment
Affidavits to my appeal to the U . S . Supreme C o u r t . T h e p r i s o n
p s y c h i a t r i s t s , Judges Yankwich, of L o s A n g e l e s , and F l o y d G i b son of K a n s a s C i t y , and the B u r e a u of P r i s o n s then t r i e d to p r e vent m y filing affidavits and petitions on the p s y c h i a t r i c c r i m i n ality i n t o r t u r e techniques. But it became apparent to the J u s t i c e
Department and the p s y c h i a t r i s t s that the U . S, Supreme C o u r t
could not ignore what I had documented. I had a l s o been refused
the right to c o r r e s p o n d with attorneys.
T h e r e were also so many denials for hearings and rulings by
the San F r a n c i s c o F e d e r a l C o u r t of A p p e a l s on c o r r u p t p r a c t i c e s ,
r i g g e d p r o c e e d i n g s , and p r i s o n t o r t u r e s , that on O c t o b e r 20, 1961,
I wrote a documented letter a d d r e s s e d to J u s t i c e s R i c h a r d B .
C h a m b e r s , O l i v e r D . H a m i l i n , and B e n C . Duniway, stating:
" Y o u r ruling dated October 17, denying leave to file a p p l i cations for W r i t s of Ivlandamus (on Judge Yankwich) was just
r e c e i v e d . It completes a perfect s c o r e of denials of e v e r y
type of hearing and i n effect it tosses the U n i t e d States C o n s titution i n a sewer, with R u l e s of C o u r t P r o c e d u r e made a
m o c k e r y . It upholds the United States A t t o r n e y and D e p a r t ment of Justice "rigging p r o c e e d i n g s . " It was p o l i t i c a l l y ex108

pedieht to railroad an accuser, confiscate his property and

evidence to protect homosexual government perversion; the
Court condones torture and the criminality of psychiatry.
Have any of you the courage to answer this letter?"
There was no reply and denial of petitions for hearings on violations of constitutional rights continued. Judge Yankwich, on
October 27, 1961, also ruled:
"The petition of Frederick Seelig, dated October 23, 1961,
in the above-entitled case to surrender confiscated evidence
is hereby denied.
"The petition of Frederick Seelig to nullify proceedings,
testimony and orders issued by the U.S. District Court in Los
Angeles for violations of his rights guaranteed by the United
States Constitution, and for violations of Rules of Procedure
mandatory for Federal courts, is also denied.
"It appears from the face of these petitions that the plaintiff is seeking remedies which are not available to him in the
circumstances of the case. "
My reply to Judge Yankwich on October 31, 1961, was with notice of appeal and a letter that said:
"This letter acknowledges your denials. In your denial, I
quote, '. . . circumstances of the case.' Would you be so kind
as to explain what you mean by .'circumstances?' Does it refer to how the case was riggedin your court, the threat to me
unless I pleaded guilty I would be declared insane; the covering up of homosecual perversion in state and federal government? Your record: Denial of all petitions for hearings on
violations of Bill of Rights, denying forma pauperis for transcripts, copies of indictment, transfer motion, sanity report
you suppressed, and denying habeas corpus writs. The transcripts will disclose your bias, dual role as judge and prosecutor, as well as corrupt proceedings. I request that you
disqualify yourself from this case."
Meanwhile, I opened with a barrage of documents and affidavits
to the Kansas City and St. Louis Federal Courts which have jurisdictiorf over the Medical Center Prison for court actions. But,
none of those courts adhered to the Constitution, nor would they
give rulings on violations of civil and human rights. Carbons of
the letters, rulings, and actions filed are too numerous to detail
and quote.
The penitentiary officials made it clear to me that I was not in
a hospital, but in a prison for punishment. For that reason, I
was assigned a parole officer. Later, the Kansas City Federal
Coarts upheld it. On May 8, 1962, a memo to the parole officer,
Robert Nicholas, protested non-mailing of documents and letters:
"The refusal by you to mail a documented letter, with attached carbon copies of documents as filed in courts as evidence of proof of the conditions of homosexual influence and
corruption, further confirms how corrupt Federal agencies
are.
"My daughter and son are now again in the hands of perverts and that is NOT AN A L L E G A T I O N but a matter of court
record . . . and you refuse to allow documents to leave this

'Rigged' Supreme Court Hoax Decisions

Cover-up Corruption, Judiciary Frauds!
Massive corruption by the Justice Department and collusive
intricate subterfuge rulings by a pro-communism Supreme Court,
undermined and destroyed my appeals case with frauds and deceptions in hoax decisions handed down June 18, 1962.
Never in the history of jurisprudence have there been such a
multitude of unethical actions and corrupt practices. Although
the decisions gave the impression I had won the case, none were
carried out, nor were any even remotely related to the constitutional issues.
The Justice Department's Solicitor General Archibald Cox wrote
a "joker" ruling on a remote technicality to serve the aberrant
interests of the Supreme Court and Justice Department. The Cox
ruling supposedly was to remand the case back to the San F r a n cisco U.S. Court of Appeals, but it never got there for hearings.
The decisions were nothing but judicial "smoke-screens" to
conceal the collusion, corruption, and the Supreme Court's hidden
and unpublicized precedance against evaluating the legality of any
foreign-originated legislation for Americans emanating from the
United Nations!
Ignominously ignored were more than 150 violations of the B i l l
of Rights and Articles of the Constitution; the Justice Department
confiscation and destruction of evidence damaging to the government; seizure of my son and daughter, assets and property; illegal imprisonment, penal brutality, inhuman cruelties and torture;
the Justice Department's rigging of proceedings, falsifying documents, and perjury by its witness--a proven liar with a criminal
record.
The "joker" ruling provided the Supreme Court an open-door
exit on adjudicating the unconstitutionality of the Kremlin-drafted, American-Communist psychiatric penal statutes. These statutes violate the Bill of Rights and the appeals raised Americanism issues on human and civil rights. It was the first case to
reach the Supreme Court with these issues.
The deference to the Kremlin and the United Nations was chilling and provided evidence Americans no longer have the protec111

tion of the B i l l of Rights against the perversity of political tyranny

imprisonnaents that prevail in Soviet Russia to silence, incapacitate and destroy government accusers and dissenters.
Nor is the Constitution now the Supreme Authority over American lives, moral codes and property. The sovereignty was obliterated by the United Nations Charter when President Truman
ramrodded ratification by the U. S. Senate in 1945. It was known
then that President Franklin D. Roosevelt, the so-called "Great
Humanitarian," and his "brain-trust" politburo of traitors, i n cluding the State Department, Alger Hiss, and FDR's homosexual,
intimate pal, Sumner Welles, had made secret agreements with
Soviet Premier Stalin. The United States and the world have been
in turmoil ever since.
Out of those agreements came creation of the United Nations.
Then the Kremlin mental health psychiatry was introduced in the
United States "for the quiet conquest of your country!" Thousands
of European doctors, trained in Kremlin psychopolitical psychiatry, were imported while hundreds of young American doctors
were indoctrinated at the Springfield Federal Penitentiary.
The criminality of the psychiatric fiends, the Kennedy-Johnson perversionists in the Justice Department and the White House
I experienced. The Cox "joker" ruling served nefarious purposes.
It put me in a far more precarious predicament, shattered my
health and nearly cost me my life.
It didn't matter to the Justice Department or the Kennedys how
they got rid of politically explosive Americanism issues that would
tarnish their image or what corrupt savagery they used.
Not one v i c t i m - M r s . Lucille Miller, Richard Pavlick, General
Edwin Walker or myself, among the hundreds who were in tyranny
imprisonment, has ever been brought to trial after being smeared
on arrest charges. No trial was ever intended. As it's done in
Russia, it is also copied in the United States.
The Supreme Court decisions were as phony as the mentallycrippled Kennedys, whose images would reflect scoundrels and
liars, were they not tinseled with deifying halos by prostituted
publicists. Mayhem was provided for me in the Cox hoax ruling.
Homosexual Walter Jenkins, LBJ's top aide, likely contributed.
Sodomites are known for the murderous pleasure of torture.
Award of Certiorari, vacating of judgment, forma pauperis and
remanding the appeals case to San Francisco were mandates of
the Supreme Court, but I got none of it. Cox's convenient "joker"
ruling provided the Justice Department with ample time: 1) to rig
proceedings 2) for more prison psychiatric torture 3) to prohibit
me from continuing as my own attorney 4) to apply "persuasive
therapy" until I signed a contract with a Justice Department approved lawyer 5) to compel me to withdraw all pending court actions 6) to transfer the case from San Francisco to Judge Yankwich in Los Angeles for invalidating the Supreme Court decisions
7) to disallow trial for alleged libel and hearings on the legality
of the imprisonment 8) abruptly dismiss all charges and set me
free with odds against my living very long after release!
Throughout the appeals in four Federal courts I was denied
counsel and legal assistance. I had been imprisoned as "too i n sane" to understand court proceedings and too mentally incompe112

tent to assist counsel in nny defense. Without training in law,

court procedures or the complicated legal work to prepare documents, amendments, or knowing the difficult rules to proceed in
the Supreme Court, I won the rarity of Certiorari few law firms
win in a lifetime. It was accomplished despite obstacles placed
in my way, torture, and attempted brainwashing. But there was
no intent to allow me to have the Certiorari.
The Supreme Court itself violated the Constitution in refusing
to appoint counsel to argue my appeals when the case came before that tribunal. It gave U.S. Solicitor General Cox free-wheeling to manipulate the decisions in the best interests of the Justice
Department. In effect. Cox had put a "fix" on the Supreme Court
to hand down decisions that were merited but would never be carried out.
A political prisoner soon learns he cannot have much hope, if
any, for constitutional justice, human or civil rights. When Yankwich received copies of my writs against him, he quickly issued
another order to the prison psychiatrists to transport me to any
state insane asylum that would take me! Apparantly none could
be found.
The Supreme Court decisions were known to about half the prison population before I learned of them. Had it not been for the
"grapevine" I don't know if I'd ever have been told. A "lifer" who
worked in the Warden's office got the news first off the teletype
from the Justice Deaprtment. He read enough to pass the word
along I had "won" the appeals case in the granting of Certiorari.
A former state judge, serving a sentence for alleged income
tax evasion, relayed the news to me in the prison yard during a
recreation period. I had just come out of the "hole" and was r e gaining strength with exercise walking the circular yard. The
former judge told me I was the first prisoner at the Springfield
Penitentiary to win the rarity of Certiorari.
He explained the Certiorari was never grantedunless the court
was convinced there had been violations of the Constitution. It
was believed I'd be leaving the prison very soon and freed. The
Justice Department, I was told, avoids confrontation of a Certiorari since it would rather dismiss the prosecution charges and
free the prisoner than risk exposure of its corrupt practices.
When several days passed and I still was not told of the decisions nor given copies of them by prison officials, I felt something was wrong and that was confirmed. The psychiatrists ordered guards to confine me in the 2-2 East prison wing with the
mindless creatures.
But I did not stay long. Within a few days guards ordered me
to follow them. We took the elevator down to the tunnel toward
2-1 East. Whether or not my eighth walk to the "death - row"
drain-holes meant my brains were to be broiled by electro shocks
was not indicated. Regardless, It had an ominous undertone. I
was stripped and thrust into a "hole. "
For 15 months the Communist psychiatric techniques for remolding minds had failed to "condition my reflexes" for obedient
ubmissiveness. Howeyer, being in the hands of Holman, a calloused, unmerciful fiend, with a sadistic infantile intelligence,
gave me a fatalistic outlook.
113

Again I suffered the excruciating discomfort of the cement

floor. I'd lie down in exhaustion, nerves flinching at the painful,
abrasive cement. I knew it would take about a week before I'd
adjust to it as well as the screams and moans from other cells. I
had done so seven times previously. It takes about a week to become numb to sleeping on cement.
When guards opened the cell door there was the usual vacuum
of suspense--had they come to strap me to a roller table for electro shocks so I would never again draw a sane breath?
On the fourth day, an envelope was handed me; inside was a
copy of one decision and a letter from the Supreme Court's office
of the clerk. It was dated June 18, 1962. The letter stated I had
been granted Certiorari and "other relief including your Writ of
Prohibition and Writ of Mandamus." Both writs were against
Judge Yankwich but to this day I have never been able to obtain
copies. The Prohibition Writ stopped the prison officials from
transporting me to St. Elizabeth's. Yankwich immediately issued
another order to have me shipped to any state asylum that would
have me. Yankwich ignored the Mandamus to abide by the Constitution .
The decision reads:
"Seelig vs. 'United States, No. 841, October Term, 196l.
The motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis and the
Petition for Writ of Certiorari are granted. The judgment is
vacated and the case is remanded for reconsideration in light
of the E l l i s v. United States, 356 U.S. 674, and Coppedge v.
United States, 369 U. S. 438. M r . Justice Frankfurter took
no part in the consideration or decision in this case. "
The "joker" ruling written by Cox "for reconsideration in light
of the Ellis V . United States . . . " was never reconsidered, but was
merely an instrument to provide ample time to destroy my case,
invalidate the decisions by a strange action of a lower court, and
to give the prison psychiatrists sufficient time to "workme over."
As I stood by the cell door studying the contents of the decision, wondering what was in the other decision and if there were
any rulings on violations of the Constitution, I heard someone in
the corridor outside my door, talking. Looking out of the peepIj^ole, I saw a prisoner, age about 75, with flowing white hair. I
heard him say, "now what are you going to do with m e ? "
He was another of the mystery prisoners at the penitentiary.
There are quite a few and seldom does anyone see them. The lifers in the administration office who know the records of every
prisoner entering or leaving the penitentiary, and who read nearly
all confidential messages, had little information on the "senator."
For years, his file, I was told, had been sealed and only the Warden had access to it. Like the other mystery prisoners, he was
rarely brought out of his tight-security solitary confinement cell.
As the "senator" was being escorted past my cell, I heard the
guard reply, "Don't worry, Seantor, we're only taking you to the
shower. "
Several hours later two guards opened the cell door and beckoned me to come out. They told me nothing but led me to the
clothing closet. Convict garb, including shoes, were tossed at my
feet and I dressed. Then I was escorted to the elevator and back
114

to the p r i s o n wing of the m i n d l e s s c r e a t u r e s .

Why I was taken from the d r a i n - h o l e , I don't know; at least it
was a r e l i e f to know my b r a i n s were not going to be b r o i l e d . It
w i l l never be known how many S p r i n g f i e l d p r i s o n e r s have been
t o r t u r e d to death, m a i m e d by beatings, or turned into mindless
creatures by e l e c t r o shocks.
D u r i n g the four days I was i n "death r o w " I did not see a p r i son official or a p s y c h i a t r i s t . T h e r e was no further news about
the Supreme Court d e c i s i o n s . A l l I got out of the hoax d e c i s i o n s
were four additional months of p r i s o n P a v l o v i a n t e r r o r i s m .
W h i l e i n the zombie wing, I was given l e g a l w o r k shop time to
answer the Supreme C o u r t letter. It was accompanied with an affidavit on my being put i n a drain-hole after decisions were handed down. The next day two guards r e m o v e d me f r o m 2-2 E a s t
to the equally dreaded 10 B u i l d i n g . I was taken to p s y c h i a t r i s t
K e i t h ' s office.
He asked how m y nerves were holding up and I told h i m "quite
w e l l . " A c t u a l l y , m y nerves w e r e taut f r o m the never-ending o r deals, but I never admitted anything that would give satisfaction
to the p s y c h i a t r i c fiends.
" Y o u won'thave a nerve left w h e n i get through with y o u , " K e i t h
r e p l i e d . " Y o u ' v e caused us enough trouble, slandered too many
p e o p l e - - y o u ' r e going i n 10-D If you don't know what that m e a n s y o u ' U soon l e a r n . Y o u r nuisance w i l l be ended. Y o u ' l l r e m e m ber me as long'as you l i v e . "
I made no comment. 10-D meant the n e r v e - b r e a k i n g c e l l s . I
had been told no one was known to have s u r v i v e d those c r a m p e d
c e l l s longer than s i x months with much of anything left of their
nervous systems or their sanity.
F o r a certainty I ' l l always r e m e m b e r that s a d i s t i c , P a v l o v i a n
fiend, K e i t h , not only for what he did to me i n 1 0 - D , but a l s o for
the m u r d e r o u s u l t r a - s o u n d i n 1 0 - B .
F o r m o r e than four years I've t r i e d to get a C o n g r e s s i o n a l
h e a r i n g , but the C o n g r e s s m e n and Senators are too busy t r y i n g to
c o v e r - u p their own c o r r u p t i o n , s u b v e r s i v e a c t i v i t i e s and strange
bank accounts while the Kennedys buy. elections and judgeships
with the P r e s i d e n c y as their jackpot.
It's done as s i m p l y as the m o r o n o i d K j i t l i did in pushing a button on his desk to summon two p r i s o n guards for "open season"
on government a c c u s e r s . The guards took me down the 10-Building c o r r i d o r , p r e s s e d a button to open a h e a v i l y insulated steel
door with a " D " painted on it.
F o u r guards waited i n s i d e . I was o r d e r e d to s t r i p , searched,
and o r d e r e d to r e d r e s s . A guard with fists clenched asked me if
I had anything to say. I stood mute. He took me up the steel
s t a i r w a y to a second floor t i e r of s m a l l c e l l s , opened a steel door
and l o c k e d me i n .
The c e l l had a cot and toilet and space for three short steps.
F r o m then on, the p r e s s u r e to undermine nerves and emotions
never ceased.
E v e r y m o r n i n g , K e i t h and N i c h o l a s came i n , a s k e d me how I
felt and what I thought of the court d e c i s i o n s . N i c h o l a s said they
were meaningless and m y affidavits d i s c l o s e d I knew too much.
K e i t h s i l e n t l y made notes.

115

F r o m one day to the next there was uneasy suspense. Guards

would open the cell door, order me on my knees to scrub the toilet inside and out, threaten beatings if I were not instantly obedient. Nerves worsened in tautness and the pressure was explosive.
Since I was acting as my own attorney, I was allowed out of
the cell to answer court letters. My replies were accompanied
by affidavits; one against a Justice Department memorandum for
an order filed by Kansas City U . S . Attorney Millin, regarding
cases Nos. 13930, -31, and -32. I reiterated my lack^f faith in
the courts and also said psychiatry therapy was "criminal, and
only a demented mind could call it therapy. "
Dated July 4, 1962, it read:
"Notice of appeal, together with forma pauperis petition
and certification service, have been sent to the U . S . District
Court at Kansas City.
"As I stated in previous letters, I have lost faith in the
courts, but the actions still pending will be carried on to the
U . S . Supreme Court.
"I am also preparing another affidavit on the sadistic punishment by D r . Holman on Prison Ward 2-2 East, describing
the sexual obscenities, lewd actions and practices by the convictedprisoners Iwitnessed. WardenR.O. Settle and D r . Holman contend they are punishment therapy. It is criminal and
only a demented mind could call it 'therapy. '"
Another documented letter to the Supreme Court Clerk, John
F . Davis, sought information and then disclosed I had been put in
a.drain-hole because of the decisions:
"A letter from you, per E . T , Lyddance, enclosing a copy
of one Supreme Court decision. I was put in a prison 'torture hole, ' described in documents to the U . S . Court of A p peals at San Francisco detailing ci-uel and unusual punishment.
"Attached is a carbon copy put in for mailing to the Supreme Court as an amendment to my appeal on the denial of
a petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus by the Federal Court in
Kansas City, Mo.
"I have had no letter from your office acknowledging r e ceipt of the appeal or of an attached document.
"Will I be given the transcripts of the proceedings in the
Amarillo, Texas, and Los Angeles Federal District Courts
that were denied to me, and will an order be issued for surrender of my evidence, personal papers and files that were
confiscated by the Justice Department?
The silence and failure of both courts to act alerted me. Within a few days, Keith and Nicholas told me I could no longer act aa
my own attorney. They told me tbat Chief Psychiatrist Stamm
had issued an o r d e r - - ! must accept a Justice Department approved
attorney to represent me and my correspondence with courts must
cease. The services to be rendered by my approved lawyer to
be decided by my .guardian, the U . S . Attorney General (Robert
Kennedy!
One of the reasons they gave was: the prison psychiatric staff
116

had decided I was too mentally incompetent to write legal documents or to process my case through the courts. So "incompetent" I had successfully carried my case through all the lower
courts and into the U.S. Supreme Court--accomplished what few
law firms do in a lifetime--won the rarity of Certiorari vacating
of judgment. The granting of forma pauperis was supposed to enable me to obtain transcripts of proceedings, five of which are
still denied me, as is my right to court-appointed counsel without
payment for services.
I reminded Keith and Nicholas that I had already won my case
in the Supreme Court. The petitions, amendments, and affidavits
were sufficiently competent for that--and not many lawyers are
qualified to practice before the Supreme Court.
Nicholas laughed. He said my appeals case resolved nothing
except a very small technical issue that the Supreme Court did
not rule on but remanded back to the lower courts for disposition. He added that the Justice Department (Robert Kennedy) had
my case under consideration for disposition. Keith commented
all I had accomplished was "proof of my insanity!" Nothing more
was said. They walked out, the door was slammed and locked.
The next morning the pressure techniques were intensified-within two weeks, I was twice knocked unconscious with blows on
the back of my head. In that nerve-breaking cell I suffered heart
attacks for the first time in my life. The purpose of the pressure
was to induce strokes. Keith observed my physical and mental
condition, and made daily notes; I was silent to his questions.
Caryl Warner of Los Angeles, a friend of Judge Yankwich, was
the Justice Department selected "approved" attorney, whom I had
twice .rejected along with his ambiguous contracts. He was the
only attorney with whom I was allowed to correspond.
Whereas I had been denied the right to correspond with attorneys, prior to the entry of Warner, and to have counsel in my appeals through the lower courts including the hearing before the
Supreme Court, that policy was suddenly changed after the decisions were handed down in my favor.
Soon I would no longer be allowed to represent myself as my
own attorney in further proceedings. Again I made a plea to the
San Francisco Appellate Court for appointment of counsel under
the forma pauperis granted by the Supreme Court and the Sixth
Amendment, which had been violated throughout appeals proceedings for relief. I was denied.
In March, 1959, I had sought Warner's aid in my divorce case
and custody of my daughter and son. At this time, Warner told
me he knew the operations of the organized homosexuals, their
influence and power in the judiciary and in the government. He
said the homosexual attorneys, with the collusion of the courts
and the perverted social service workers, would use the children
as weapons to tear me down emotionally, then claim I imaginecT
my charges and was insane.
Warner wanted $20, 000 as an initial "retainer fee" to save my
daughter and son from homosexuality. Nor would that be the full
fee; it was out of my reach. I could not find an attorney to take a
case against the homosexuals in Los Angeles County Court and I
continued to represent the children and myself.
117

Now, in mid 1962, Warner became the "approved attorney"

chosen by the Justice Department with whom I could correspond.
That put it on record; I had been allowed my rights. Before the
Supreme Court decisions, Warner demanded $5, OOP as a retainer
to study my case. When he learned I had won the case in the Supreme Court, he dropped the retainer fee to $1, OOP to evaluate
the case. I refused to accept him or his contract.
Meanwhile, Pavlovian torture was intensified to break my resistance to the dictates of the psychiatrists and Justice Department. After two months I realized if I were to get out of the p r i son alive I'd have to accept Warner regardless of the cost. By
then I knew the Supreme Court decisions were hoaxes and would
never be carried out.
Somehow, Warner learned I had more than $1,4PP in accumulated Social Security "disability benefits" that were being withheld from me. But, when I was awarded forma pauperis, a check
for $1,416, dated July 11, 1962, was quickly sent. The Supreme
Court decisions were handed down June 18, 1962.
Prisoners with Social Security credits apply for "disability"
benefits when they are put on "status" so-called insa.nity. But in
my case, the prison officials used dilatory tactics to block my application. This kept me impoverished; but the conditions under
which I could make out the application were dictated.
Only persons who have experienced and know what it is like te
be up against the Justice Department and the "stacked decks" of
Federal agencies and courts can understand the rigging of proceedings and how it is done.
Keith and Nicholas repeatedly threatened me with Yankwich's
orders to transfer me to St. Elizabeth's in Washington or a state
insane asylum unless I was "cooperative. "
Meanwhile, Warner had been meeting with the Los Angeles
U.S. Attorneys, having frequent lunches with Judge Yankwich and
correspondence with the penitentiary officials.
It wasn't until after I had obtained my freedom that I was able
to obtain the second Supreme Court decision. It was more specific and a direct mandate that Certiorari, vacating judgment and
forma pauperis had been granted; it read:
"No. 841 - Misc. On Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the
United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit: On consideration of the motion to leave to proceed herein in forma
pauperis and of the petition for Writ of Certiorari, it is ordered by this court that the motion to proceed in forma pauperis be, and the same is hereby granted; the petition for
Writ of Certiorari be, and the same is hereby granted. "
Tntricate manipulations by the Justice Department continued to
smother my case in the maze of corruption. The Springfield Penitentiary, through the Federal Bureau of Prisons, notified courts
in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Kansas City and St. Louis that I
had "hidden assets" and was not entitled to forma pauperis.
It was intended to further demoralize me, give an excuse to
the Federal Courts to invalidate the Supreme Court forma pauperis award, and force me to sign a contract with Warner. Anyone in as desperate a position as I was, and knows his life is in
118

the balance of the nnove he makes, has little choice if he wants to

gamble for his freedom.
On July 30th Justice Richard H. Chambers of the San F r a n cisco U . S . Court of Appeals revoked the forma pauperis:
"Petitioner Seelig asks to proceed without prepayment of
fees or costs.
His application is too conclusionary in its
statement of poverty and may be questionable for the reason
that petitioner apparently has a considerable sum of money
under the control of the Bureau of Prisons. Petitioner may
reapply stating what his assets are, if any. "
It was an unprecedented action to revoke a Supreme Court decision and I feared I would not be taken beforethe San Francisco
court or given hearings. The case was being geared to Judge
Yankwich in Los Angeles. His court never had jurisdiction for
any proceedings of my case.
Previous Supreme Court precedents had established defendants
with assets of $20, 000 or more were entitled to forma pauperis
on the grounds they could be impoverished by the Government with
assets of billions of dollars.
The letter Warner sent to Warden Settle calling for a thousand
dollar fee said:
July 20, 1962
"Earlier this year, we proposed a fee charge of $5, 000,
that contemplated seeing M r . Seelig in Springfield, and also
reviewing the matters in Texas, at Amarillo. However, in
view of the nature of the case at the present time . . . I have
consented to look into the matter here in Los Angeles to review the commitment for a retainer of $1, 000. "
Significant in Warner's letter was: " . . . However, in view of
the nature of the case at the present time" he had "consented" to
"review" for a retainer of $1, 000.
Warden Settle had me brought to his office. Associate Warden
Mayden and D r . Nicholas were also there. I had wanted to send
$1, 200 to my son, Philip, but they disputed my right to designate
where and to whom my funds should go. I was, they contended, a
ward of Attorney General, Robert Kennedy, and had no property
rights. They refused to send the money so my son could obtain
an attorney for me; I refused to sign the Warner contract.
This dispute was part of the Justice Department stall for time
to invalidate the Supreme Court decisions.
July 25, 1962, Warden Settle sent a reply to Warner:
"Seelig, as you know, is committed here as an incompetent by the United States District Court for the Southern C a l ifornia district, and we have some responsibility for the prudent management of his funds. We cannot simply send you a
thousand dollars as a retainer to represent him, either on
your request, that of his son, or his own request.
"Certain rules and regulations have been laid down by the
Bureau of Prisons regarding attorney representation, not the
least of which is the necessity of a contract which specifies
the services to be rendered, and payment after a certified
invoice that the services have been received. In this case,
however, Seelig, as a result of his florid delusional thinking,
has so confused the issues by his almost daily communica-

119

tions to v a r i o u s courts that we. a r e not clear at this moment

as to what position we should take acting i n his best interest.

p r i s o n . It followed the C o m m u n i s t p s y c h i a t r y prosecution d o c t r i n e s being taught m e d i c a l school graduates under Settle's s u pervision.
Settle l i e d . T h e r e had been no " d a i l y c o m m u n i c a t i o n s " by me
to the courts. He l i e d when he s a i d m y case was I n the " T e n t h
C i r c u i t C o u r t of L o s A n g e l e s . " That was his flori^d delusional
thinking. M y case was in the 9th C i r c u i t C o u r t of San F r a n c i s c o .
He belittled the f i r s t C e r t i o r a r i won by a p r i s o n e r i n his penitentiary.
Settle had degraded the t r i b u n a l ' s decisions as "an i s s u e d e c i d e d . " F o r the same lapses of m e m o r y both Settle and Yankwich
frequently exhibited, p r i s o n e r s a r e condemned as " i n s a n e " or
" m e n t a l l y incompetent. "
T h e J u s t i c e Department rates W a r d e n Settle ana the p s y c h i a t r i s t s with warped, sadistic minds as " e x p e r t s " for their a t r o c i ties "in'the name of s c i e n c e . "
Settle l i e d when he wrote the San F r a n c i s c o C o u r t was c o n s i dering m y plea for a court-appointed attorney.
He a l r e a d y knew
the appellate court had r e v o k e d the Supreme C o u r t mandate on
f o r m a pauperis and denied m y plea for an attorney.
How could he c l a i m prudent management of m y funds when the
J u s t i c e Department and the F e d e r a l B u r e a u of P r i s o n s were f o r c ing me to give a l l m y funds to their own patronage attorney?
H i s letter admitted intent to c o m m i t me to an insane a s y l u m
and v e r i f i e d threats were made to i m p r i s o n m y son for " d e l u sional t h i n k i n g ! "
Settle's letter continues:
" A s to your suggestion that P h i l i p Seelig be appointed 'an
attorney i n fact to complete c e r t a i n other business t r a n s a c tions pending in C a l i f o r n i a , ' we a r e most reluctant to p r o c e e d
with this since Phvlip's relationship with this institution (tele g r a m s , emergency telephone c a l l s , etc. ) indicate that he
l i k e w i s e s u b s c r i b e s to his father's delusional beliefs of p e r secution by homosexual law enforcement officials, etc.
" T h e B u r e a u of P r i s o n ' s plan for the disposition of S e e l i g ' 8 case is in general that since he is c h r o n i c a l l y and l e 120

gaily insane (sic)he should eventually be committed to a state

hospitaL Presumably this would be in Maryland, although
there may be some difficulty in establishing his legal entitlement to state treatment. This would require the preliminary
dismissal of charges in the United States District Court for
the Southern District of California and is usually done after
evaluation of the case by the officials of the Department of
Justice. This is currently in progress. Seelig himself is
opposed to this procedure since he demands vindication of
delusional system in the Court. He wants to be adjudicated
competent, to be returned for trial, and to have opportunity
to prove the case against his delusional persecutors.
"For the time being I shall defer action on your request
pending further correspondence with you, perhaps some expression of opinion by the Court, and referral of the matter
to M r . Eugene Barkin, Legal Counsel, Bureau of Prisons,
Washington, D . C .
"I want to assure you that our primary interest is in the
welfare of the patient (sic. ) and that we are interested in his
having proper legal representation, as soon as it becomes
clear what the best course is. "
Robert Kennedy, and his goons of savagery, in sacrilegious
Kremlin mayhem, were desperate to close the case against their
criminality. The prison psychiatric staff immediately issued another insanity report, claiming I was incurably insane and could
not understand any proceedings nor assist counsel in my defense.
Unless I "cooperated" in my own destruction, I'd be sped to an
insane asylum was the threat. It was accented with unmerciful
pressure by Drs. Keith and Nicholas in the nerve-shattering 10-D
cell.
Numerous times my son phoned the penitentiary requesting to
speak to me. D r . Stamm refused, saying I was "too violently insane to speak to anyone. " Philip told him he was a "liar. "
Warden Settle ordered guards to bring me to his office. Unless I stopped my son from making "charges, " Settle told me, he
would be brought to the prison for "therapy. " Stamm reported
my son had called him a "sadistic bastard" and in Stamm's opinion, that made him a "dangerous sociopath! " I told Warden Settle "sadistic bastard" described Stamm perfectly.
I refused to
cooperate.
A guard accompanied me to 10-D and a blow to the head felled
me unconscious. That was "therapy. " The next morning I wrote
Warner I would sign a contract for a thousand dollar retainer fee,
provided he agreed to the conditions I drafted: that I be brought
back immediately to Los Angeles for trial and hearings on the i l legality of my imprisonment.
I knew I'd not have a functioning nerve or sanity left if I didn't
get out of prison. Within a few days a reply from Warner and a
letter from my son in which he said Warner had assured him if I
cooperated I would be brought back for a trial. Warner's letter
reiterated the assurance. Enclosed was a contract, upping the
fee to $1, 200, with a change differing from what I had stipulated:
"Retainer case in U, S. District Court of Los Angeles and
Ninth Circuit Court at San Francisco for hearing on the le121

^ality of imprisonment, with cross-examination.

Fee: $1.200.00
An hour later, Psychiatrist Keith and Psychologist Nicholas
came to my cell and asked if I was going to accept Warner--the
"approved attorney." They had a fund-withdrawal form. Even
though I knew Warner was just another Justice Department "plant"
I signed the authorization for $1, 200 payment to Warner and the
contract which was dated July 27, 1962.
After I gave Keith and Nicholas the signed documents I was
given another document. My signature was needed for withdrawal
of all pending appeals and actions which had not yet reached the
Supreme Court. It did not include the decisions already handed
down. They gave me another letter from Warner. It stated if I
signed the withdrawals I'd be 1-eaving the prison in a few days.
There were nine other actions pending against the Justice Department in the Missouri and California Federal Courts. Three
others were ready for processing to the Supreme Court. I penciled a note to Warner to obtain an order for my immediate transportation to the Los Angeles County Jail. I was in urgent need of
a doctor and I asked him to arrange bail for my release. The
note was worded to convey the impression I had insisted on him
to represent me.
Instead of being brought back to Los Angeles, I received another letter from Warner stating there would be a "two week delay! " Later I received a copy of a letter written to Warden Settle. It was dated September 19th and said:
"We have become attorney of record for Seelig and have
taken it upon ourselves to dismiss and withdraw all pending
motions, appeals and petitions. Judge Yankwich will re-examine the defendant (Seelig) as to his present competency to
stand trial on the 1st day of October.
"In view of his success in securing a Certiorari in the United States Supreme Court (a feat few law firms achieve in a
lifetime) . . . he is fully competent to stand trial on two simple misdemeanor counts."
Warner had not hastened my release from the penitentiary, he
had delayed it! Further, he ignored my letters pleading for my
removal from the 10-D Pavlovian torture cell. Twice more I was
knocked unconscious. The blows were always on the back of my
head. The pressure on my nerves had been intensified following
my signing of the Warner contract.
Another letter from Warner said my court appearance had been
changed from October 1 to October 22, 1962! It was just another
stall for more "elapsed time. " My health was already shattered.
I couldn't survive a fifth month with the continuous concentrated
torture, head blows and "therapy. "
About September 24, my mind had become so weakened, nerves
raw, and biological functions slowed, that I lay inert on the cell
cot most of the time. Keith had me removed to a 10-B cell block
drain-hole where sores and infections pained my feet and legs.
On October 12, 1962, or thereabouts --dates had become meaningless to me--two prison guards came to my cell, took me to a
clothing-room and gave me misfit, cheap, prison-made civilian
garb to put on. The shoes were too large but I was ordered to
122

wear them regardless.

tentiary. M y final appearance before Judge Yankwich was as corrupt and rigged as the seven previous F e d e r a l court proceedings.
In A t t o r n e y W a r n e r ' s office, I berated h i m for not c l e a r i n g me
of a mentality r e c o r d and not abiding by the contract. W a r n e r
threatened he would i n c a r c e r a t e me i n a C a l i f o r n i a m e n t a l health
p r i s o n on my " i n s a n i t y r e c o r d " unless I was mute. He i n s i s t e d I
w r i t e h i m a letter "thanking h i m for his s e r v i c e s and for gaining
my freedom. " I was i n no position to make a continued fight, I
wrote h i m the letter to safeguard m y s e l f f r o m disappearing i n another p r i s o n .
The indictment d i s m i s s a l was signed on N o v e m b e r 20, 1962,
by F e d e r a l Judge H a r r y C . Westover, based on F e d e r a l C o u r t
Rule 48 --the same one on which I sought hearing on petitions for
habeas corpus i n the Kansas C i t y and St. L o u i s F e d e r a l courts
for violations of the F i f t h , E i g h t h , Ninth, and Fourteenth A m e n d ments of the Constitution. R u l e 48 states, i n pertinent part:
" . . . i f there i s unnecessary delay i n bringing a defendant
to t r i a l , the court may d i s m i s s the indictment. "
Some months l a t e r I obtained a copy of a letter sent to W a r n e r
by the San F r a n c i s c o C o u r t of A p p e a l s , dated September 27, 1962;
" F o r your information, the Court, acting upon the D i s m i s s a l and W i t h d r a w a l presented by you, has endorsed an o r d e r
thereon d i s m i s s i n g a l l appeals, motions, and petitions pending i n this court and a c e r t i f i e d copy is enclosed.
"No appeal was docketed i n this court, so I can assume
that the d i s m i s s a l by the D i s t r i c t C o u r t of a l l proceedings i n
those courts would dispose of any undocketedappeals that may
have been pending there. "
The San F r a n c i s c o U . S. C o u r t of Appeals had never docketed
the case r e t u r n e d by the U . S . Supreme C o u r t for reopening!
How W a r n e r accomodated the J u s t i c e Department, Judge Yankw i c h , and the San F r a n c i s c o F e d e r a l C o u r t i s d i s c l o s e d i n his letter to the San F r a n c i s c o U . S. C o u r t of A p p e a l s , Sept. 19, 1962:
"We enclose D i s m i s s a l and W i t h d r a w a l of a l l petitions, appeals, and motions pending i n the above captioned cases (No.
1194 - 1407). We have r e v i e w e d the entire case, including
the a c t i o n of the United States Supreme C o u r t . It i s our c o n c l u s i o n that the various appeals, motions and petitions A R E
W I T H O U T M E R I T , and that Judge Y a n k w i c h acted within his
j u r i s d i c t i o n and d i s c r e t i o n i n c o m m i t t i n g the defendant. "
W a r n e r had exonerated Judge Y a n k w i c h of multiple c o r r u p t i o n
charges. G o r e , on his p e r j u r y i n testimony during M a r c h , 1961,
p r e v i o u s l y exonerated a l l L o s Angeles County officials and judges
on charges of p e r v e r s i o n c o r r u p t i o n .
B o t h G o r e and W a r n e r established new precedents i n r i g g e d
and c o r r u p t court p r o c e d u r e s . The Constitution mandates t r i a l ,
witnesses and evidence be i n t r o d u c e d and h e a r d . W a r n e r had not
only v i o l a t e d the contract but by letter, w i t h the l o w e r F e d e r a l
courts as a c c e s s o r i e s , had i n v a l i d a t e d the U . S . Supreme C o u r t
decisions and a l l pending actions as being W I T H O U T M E R I T .
A letter to me f r o m W a r n e r , dated August 23, 1962, reads;
" Y o u were b r i l l i a n t i n s e c u r i n g C e r t i o r a r i f r o m the U . S .
Supreme Court, something few l a w y e r s do i n a l i f e t i m e . We
have the greatest respect for your thinking on your case. "

T h e elapsed time of four months f r o m the date of the decisions

by the Supreme C o u r t on June 18 to October 22, 1962, gave time
for the Justice Department, the F e d e r a l courts and W a r n e r to
c o v e r up the c o r r u p t i o n by smothering the case into o b l i v i o n .
Six months l a t e r I l e a r n e d that W a r n e r had frequent lunches

without the J u s t i c e Department's p r i o r knowledge of the s e r v i c e s
and a p p r o v a l of the attorney selected.
Until the day I left the M e d i c a l C e n t e r penitentiary in m i d - O c tober, 1962, the schoolboy p s y c h i a t r i s t s were s t i l l reporting I
w a s too dangerous and insane to be freed. T h e y c l a i m e d I could
not understand the l i b e l charges against me or a s s i s t in m y defense.
V e r y few of them knew the definition of l i b e l and none knew
what C e r t i o r a r i meant: T h e y follow and p r a c t i c e the C o m m u n i s t
doctrines for implanting the stigma of "insanity" on an a c c u s e r .
T o r t u r e and brutality, d e s c r i b e d in the K r e m l i n Manual for A m e r i c a n s , failed to change m y thinking; but the destructiveness of the
a l l e g e d therapy they c l a i m is "treatment, " shattered m y health.
K a n s a s C i t y U . S . A t t o r n e y M i l l i n wrote a m e m o r a n d u m to Judge

Justice D e p a r t m e n t m e m o r a n d u m but doesn't mention that m y reply exposed the fraud of the m e m o r a n d u m . T h e full text of M a r shall's letter follows:
" T h i s is i n r e p l y to your request for i n f o r m a t i o n concerning c e r t a i n allegations made by M r . F r e d e r i c k Seelig. I b e lieve that the most complete p i c t u r e of the c i r c u m s t a n c e s surrounding Seelig's i n c a r c e r a t i o n can be obtained by reading a
copy of the m e m o r a n d u m of the United States which was filed
in the Supreme C o u r t on A p r i l 2, 1962, a copy of which is
enclosed.
"As you w i l l note, in the aforementioned m e m o r a n d u m the
United States suggested that Seelig's case be remanded to the
C o u r t of A p p e a l s for the Ninth C i r c u i t for that court to decide
whether, in cases such as Seelig's, it was the court's duty to
126

appoint counsel on appeal. The Supreme Court adopted this

suggestion and remanded the case on June 18, 1962.
"Thereafter, on September 1, 1962, Seelig caused to be
dismissed and withdrawn all appeals which were then pending
in the Court of Appeals, giving as his reason that it was "the
intention and purpose of defendant to proceed on motions being filed, set down for hearing before Honorable Leon R.
Yankwich on October 1, 1962." Seelig's- appeals were dismissed by the Court of Appeals on September 24, 1962.
"On September 20, 1962, Seelig moved in the District Court
for the Southern District of California for a reexamination of
the issue of his mental competency and for other relief. On
October 24, 1962, following a psychiatric examination and a
hearing at which Seelig was represented by counsel. Judge
Leon R. Yankwich filed his "Finding of Fact and Order" to
the effect that Seelig was then " . . . presently sane, mentally
competent and able to under stand the proceedings against him
and to properly assist in his own defense." Seelig was released on $100. 00 bail and he was ordered to return to the
court on December 17, 1962.
"On November 20, 1962, the Government dismissed the
original three-count indictment against Seelig. This action
was taken because it was the opinion of the psychiatrists who
examined Seelig that he would not again engage in conduct of
the type for which he was indicted and because Seelig had
been in custody for over a year and a half on a misdemeanor
charge.
"I believe that the above is dispositive of the matters contained in the material you forwarded to us. "
Marshall claims the Cox memorandum gives the "most complete picture of the circumstances surrounding Seelig's incarceration. " But it is a remarkable exhibit of the Government's psychopolitical semantics to cover up its criminality.
Neither the memorandum nor Marshall's letter mentions the
paramount issues involved in my arrest for alleged l i b e l - - t h e
homosexual-Commvinist government perversion corruption that is
denied hearings and due process of law. Nor does the Justice
Department disclose that Communist psychiatric prosecution was
substituted by rigged proceedings, or that no trial was intended.
Marshall's letter conceals the Supreme Court decisions were
never docketed or carried out by the San Franciscd'U. S. Court of
Appeals. Nor does he tell how these decisions Were invalidated
four months later in the Los Angeles U.S. District of Judge Yankwich. Marshall does not mention there are fraud, corruption and
rigged proceedings charges pending that are not permitted investigation or prosecution.
Marshall's letter further fabricates, "Seelig caused to be dismissed and withdrawn all appeals which were then pending . . . it
was the intention and purpose of the defendant to proceed on motions . . . before Judge Yankwich. "
It would be too much to expect the trained government administrator to admit the simple truth--the U. S. Solicitor General had
rigged the decisions of the highest court in the land, the Supreme
Court, thereby making it a political puppet to serve the aberrent
127

interesta of the Justice Department, the Kennedys and L B J .

A l l of Marshall's letter deceptively distorts the facts and the
realities of what occurred. At no time did I cease seeking hearings and investigations. His letter conceals that I was forced to
accept an "approved" attorney who first had to tell the Justice
Department how he would conduct my case (i.e. cover up the government injustices)
Marshall's duplicity continues, "it was the opinion of the p s y chiatrists who examined Seelig that he would not again engage in
conduct of the type for which he was indicted." Marshall does not
identify the psychiatrists or reveal that they were being trained
in Communist psychiatric techniques.
At no time, during my imprisonment and up to the day I was
"freed, " did the Federal psychiatrists believe I would cease my
charges of government perversion corruption.
The $100. 00 bail that Marshall mentions after being "in custody for a misdemeanor charge" was the first I was allowed! Not
only was I held without bail but in tight security. If you recall,
General Walker's bail was set at $100,000 on charges and he, too,
was never allowed a trial. The charges against him were dismissed as fraudulent after he was imprisoned on corrupt proceedings.
What makes Marshall's letter more inane is that it was written after my barrage of renewed and compounded charges against
Justice Department officials, politically-stacked Federal courts
and "managed" grand juries. This was sumniarized in a letter
sent to U. S. Solicitor General Cox with a copy to Marshall's civil
rights department. Neither Cox nor Marshall replied. Pertinent
parts of the letter, dated December 17, 1962, follow:

F r o m 1963 through 1965, petitions and affidavits on s i m i l a r

charges w e r e sent to the L o s A n g e l e s F e d e r a l G r a n d J u r y for
hearings and i n v e s t i g a t i o n . A l l Were t r e a t e d w i t h s i l e n c e , s i g n i f i c a n t l y two petitions on the falsifying of the t r a n s c r i p t s of t e s timony and on the fraud of " D r . " G o r e .
The c l o s i n g p a r a g r a p h s of the F e b r u a r y 25, 1964 petition could
h a r d l y be m o r e s p e c i f i c :
" P e t i t i o n e r charges that the U . S, A t t o r n e y ' s office f o l lowed the acknowledged ' p e r v e r t l i n e ' that ' a c c u s e r s of p e r v e r t s are insane' and ' v i c t i m s of d e l u s i o n a l thinking. ' He
charges that Thomas L . G o r e was injected into the case for
the specific purpose of getting r i d of the p r i s o n e r , the a c c u s e r of p e r v e r t s , and i t w a s done by fraud and c o r r u p t p r a c tices.
" P e t i t i o n e r appeals to the F e d e r a l G r a n d J u r y for hearings
and i n v e s t i g a t i o n on the due p r o c e s s of law c l a u s e , on r e d r e s s of g r i e v a n c e s , and on p r o v i s i o n s of statutes w h i c h empower the F e d e r a l G r a n d J u r y to a s c e r t a i n whether or not

officials and judges, independent of U . S . A t t o r n e y ' s office.
P e t i t i o n e r requests he be subpoenaed and witnesses h e a r d . "
That petition, l i k e a l l others I submitted, contained sufficient
i n f o r m a t i o n on the c r i m i n a l i t y of what I e x p e r i e n c e d and w i t n e s s e d
and the contents w a r r a n t i n v e s t i g a t i o n and h e a r i n g s . But, when

J u s t i c e is p e r v e r t e d .
T h e r e i s no other a l t e r n a t i v e or r e c o u r s e for anyone to seek a

c o r r u p t i o n i n government, and i n the j u d i c i a r y , when it is b u r i e d
under smothering s i l e n c e .
W i t h i n s i x weeks after the confiscation, the Mattachine (homosexual) Society disbanded as a national o r g a n i z a t i o n , and the e d i tor of the w o r l d ' s l a r g e s t newspaper i n London, E n g l a n d was r e m o v e d f r o m his p o s i t i o n . H i s correspondence and m a t e r i a l were
i n those confiscated f i l e s . M o s t of m y witnesses i n C a l i f o r n i a ,
whose names and a d d r e s s e s were i n the f i l e s , disappeared.
P r i o r to my a r r e s t , I was h a r r a s s e d by the Internal Revenue
S e r v i c e and the P o s t Office Department.
T w i c e I was subjected
130

to inquisitions by FBI agents. A l l of it was related to the homosexuality in the divorce case and my efforts to obtain hearings on
the government perversion.
On June 11, 1964, I sent, by registered nnail, a Citizen's Complaint and Petition for hearing in the Congress of the UnitedStates
on the Justice Department and judiciary corruption. It was based
on the First Amendment . . . "the right of the people to petition
the Government for a redress of grievances." (See appendix for
Petition. )
The original and accompanying letter was dispatched by registered air mail to John F . McCormack, Speaker of the House of
Representatives, with copies to President Johnsonand every memr
ber of the U. S. Senate and the House. Signed registered return
receipts evidence deliveries were made to McCormack and L B J .
More than 20, 000 copies were distributed to the public nationwide and millions of radio listeners heard the contents in broadcasts by Richard Cptten, the Conservative Viewpoint radio commentator. The petition was buried with silence. The letter to
Speaker McCormack stated:
"Copies of the enclosed petition to the Congress for hearing and investigation, based on the F i r s t Amendment, giving
the right to petition the Government for a redress of grievances, are in the mails to all members of Congress.
"The complaint and charges on corrupt practices, compounded, multiple violations of the B i l l of Rights, are made
under oath and will be substantiated by documents and the
case record.
"We have also evidence that Thomas L . Gore has a c r i m inal background and there is a question as to whether he is a
bonafide doctor, much less qualified to practice psychiatry.
"The complaint and charges are understatements on the
corrupt practices employed by the Department of Justice and
the Federal courts in my imprisonment for nearly two years
without any trial or conviction of an offense.
"The Congress in the last resort for a hearing. The case
went through the U . S . Supreme Court and the lower courts.
All efforts to obtain hearings have been blocked. The F e d eral Grand Jury has refused to give hearing to any phase. I
request the petition be introduced in Congress.
There was no reply from McCormack. Silence has been the
policy of the White House, the cabinet, the government administrative agencies when confronted with irrefutable evidence of corruption, treasonable activities and maladministration. This has
prevailed since the early years of the Roosevelt regime. Subterfuges have replaced patriotism, loyalty and hoaasty.
Psychopolitics and deceptive semantics became a new way of
American administrative government when FDR entrenched homosexuals, Marxists, and anti-Christian minority leaders with
alien ideologies under guise of humanitarianism.
Shortly after I sent the letter to McCormack along with the Petition to Congress, I was shown a letter that President Johnson,
when he was Vice President, had sent to my son, Philip, on May
21, 1962. It was in reply to his request for an investigation of
my imprisonment. A photocopy of L B J ' s letter follows:

by
REVILO

P.

OLIVER

The appalling s t o r y t o l d by M r Seelig i n the foregoing

pages i s much m o r e than a p e r s o n a l tragedy that must excite
sympathy and p i t y i n e v e r y human heart, [t i s a s t o r y that is terr i b l e i n the full sense of that w o r d : it should s t r i k e t e r r o r into
the heart of e v e r y A m e r i c a n who hopes that his c h i l d r e n w i l l not
r e g r e t having been b o r n .
A s A m e r i c a ' s most eminent j o u r n a l i s t suggests i n his i n t r o d u c t i o n to the p r e s e n t book, M r . S e e l i g ' s account should be
v e r i f i e d i n e v e r y p a r t i c u l a r by diligent and i n t r e p i d i n v e s t i g a t o r s .
But such v e r i f i c a t i o n could only c o n f i r m what we a l l know or
w o u l d know, i f we p a i d attention to the evidence that has been
a c c u m u l a t i n g for decades.
M r . S e e l i g ' s n a r r a t i v e confronts us w i t h two facts that c a n not be denied, and to w h i c h it would be c o w a r d l y and d i s a s t r o u s
to close our eyes. Those facts a r e , of c o u r s e , the e v e r - i n c r e a s ing p e r v e r s i o n of law and j u d i c i a l p r o c e s s i n our country and the
epidemic sexual p e r v e r s i o n that has brought us to the verge of
moral imbecility.
The p e r v e r s i o n of lawthat i s to say, the use of pseudol e g a l p r o c e s s e s to protect the guilty by d e s t r o y i n g the w i t n e s s e s
to t h e i r g u i l t i s both c o m m o n and n o t o r i o u s . It i s so notorious
that one can only wonder at the fatuous apathy of a public that
does nothing about it because each i n d i v i d u a l b e l i e v e s that he pers o n a l l y can escape i f he, l i k e a rabbit, runs away and s i l e n t l y
hides h i m s e l f i n the weeds. In New Y o r k C i t y not long ago some
forty persons watched f r o m t h e i r windows for half an hour w h i l e
a lone m a r a u d e r attacked and m u r d e r e d a w o m a n i n the street
o u t s i d e - - w a t c h e d and d i d nothing, d i d not even telephone the
p o l i c e , because each was " a f r a i d to become i n v o l v e d . " T h e r e
have been many incidents l i k e that. The c r a v e n spectators belong
to a f o r m of life now p r o l i f i c i n the United States, but it r e q u i r e s
no l e a r n i n g to see that o v e r s i z e d r a b b i t s , although able to stand
on their hind l e g s , to jabber, and to vote, are a species that i s
b i o l o g i c a l l y unfit to s u r v i v e .
The most notorious and ominous instance of the p e r v e r s i o n
of law o c c u r r e d m o r e than twenty years ago, and it has not yet
excited the a l a r m and indignation that such outrages n e c e s s a r i l y
arouse i n nations that a r e v i a b l e . The obscene and t r a g i c farce
c a l l e d the "Sedition T r i a l " began i n 1942 and ended only i n 1947.
It was an act of S o v i e t - s t y l e t e r r o r i s m c a r r i e d out to i n t i m i d a t e
A m e r i c a n s . T h i r t y men and women f r o m a l l over the country,
most of whom had never even h e a r d of one another and who had
in c o m m o n only outspoken c r i t i c i s m of the C o m m u n i s t C o n s p i r acy, were hauled to Washington i n hand-cuffs and l e g - i r o n s , i m p r i s o n e d in c e l l s kept dark so that they could not read, and sub1 39

jected. to the most fantastic t r i a l for " c o n s p i r a c y " ever conducted

outside the Soviet U n i o n . The a c t u a l t r i a l , based on pretenses so
transparent that they cannot have been intended to deceive any intelligent man, was staged i n 1944 by the infamous E . E . E i c h e r ,
a protege of F e l i x F r a n k f u r t e r and C h i e f J u s t i c e of the D i s t r i c t
C o u r t of the D i s t r i c t of C o l u m b i a , i n open c o l l u s i o n w i t h an i n c r e d i b l e A s s i s t a n t A t t o r n e y , Oetje J . Rogge, another protege of
F r a n k f u r t e r and a l o n g - t i m e a d m i r e r of the B o l s h e v i k s , whose
part i n the p e r s e c u t i o n earned h i m the d i s t i n c t i o n of being the
p e r s o n a l guest of S t a l i n i n the K r e m l i n a few y e a r s l a t e r . The
scoff-law judge, E i c h e r , repeatedly and f l a g r a n t l y violated the
Constitution of the U n i t e d States, i n n u m e r a b l e l a w s , and the e l e m e n t a r y p r i n c i p l e s of equity and j u s t i c e on w h i c h a l l laws are
based. But the v i c i o u s c r e a t u r e that l a w l e s s l y p r e s i d e d over a
f e d e r a l court did not succeed i n doing the job for which he had
been appointed. He died w h i l e a r t i c l e s of impeachment for m a l feasance i n office w e r e i n p r e p a r a t i o n and before he could be
brought to t r i a l i n the Senate. H i s sudden death, r e p o r t e d l y f r o m
n a t u r a l causes, a v e r t e d an i n v e s t i g a t i o n and exposure that our
enemies i n Washington w e r e desperately eager to prevent. The
a b s u r d c a s e l u d i c r o u s but for the suffering and i r r e p a r a b l e l o s s
i n f l i c t e d on the hapless defendants and even t h e i r attorneys^fin a l l y came before an honest judge i n 1946 and was d i s m i s s e d as
a " t r a v e s t y on j u s t i c e . " But the c r i m i n a l elements i n what i s
c a l l e d our " J u s t i c e Department, " i n an effort to d i s t r e s s t h e i r
intended v i c t i m s as m u c h as p o s s i b l e , p e r s i s t e d u n t i l the case
was f i n a l l y t e r m i n a t e d by o r d e r of the C o u r t of A p p e a l s on the
last day of J u l y , 1947."'
A m o r e recent incident, w h i c h to a c o n s i d e r a b l e extent para l l e l s M r . S e e l i g ' s experience, was the kidnapping of G e n e r a l
E d w i n A . W a l k e r i n Oxford, M i s s i s s i p p i , on October 1, 1962.
That c r i m e , although evidently planned with c a r e by the gangs t e r s , was not a complete s u c c e s s , and the m a i n outlines of the
story, at least, are now known to everyone. G e n e r a l W a l k e r , a
great A m e r i c a n and one of our most d i s t i n g u i s h e d m i l i t a r y men,
had, at great p e r s o n a l s a c r i f i c e and w i t h c a t e g o r i c a l r e j e c t i o n of
the b r i b e s offered to h i m , r e s i g n e d f r o m the A r m y so that he
could not be s i l e n c e d by the t r a i t o r s and i n t e r n a t i o n a l v e r m i n who
had taken over " o u r " Department of Defense. The f i r s t attempt
to s i l e n c e h i m thereafter appears to have been w e l l planned; up
to a c e r t a i n point, everything functioned with the p r e c i s i o n of
c l o c k w o r k . In Oxford, M i s s i s s i p p i , one of the p r o f e s s i o n a l l i a r s

that "news" s e r v i c e d i s t r i b u t e d throughout the country/^' Then
goons, many of them r e c r u i t e d f r o m penitentiaries and a l l h o l d ing appointments as U . S . M a r s h a l s , went into action under the
s u p e r v i s i o n of one N i c h o l a s Katzenbach, who was on the spot as
p e r s o n a l representative of R o b e r t ("Bobby Sox") Kennedy, then
A t t o r n e y G e n e r a l of the UnitedStates. G e n e r a l W a l k e r ' s automob i l e was i l l e g a l l y stopped on a public highway, and, without w a r rant or charge of any k i n d , he was taken before a U . S. C o m m i s sioner, who, after p r a c t i c i n g shameless deceit on the G e n e r a l ,
a s s u r i n g h i m that he would be r e l e a s e d on bond, fixed the bond at
the fantastic sum of one hundred thousand d o l l a r s . T h i s was e v i dently a m i s c a l c u l a t i o n , for a bond of twice that amount became
a v a i l a b l e as soon as the G e n e r a l ' s friends and r e l a t i v e s were notified, and, to a v o i d acceptance of that bond, it was n e c e s s a r y
for the r e s p o n s i b l e official of " o u r " government to go into hiding
and to use other dodges until the second stage of the kidnapping
was c a r r i e d out.
That was c a r r i e d out with e x e m p l a r y efficiency i n l e s s than
three hours. In Washington, a p e r s o n of R u s s i a n o r i g i n s named
K a n t o r , who c a l l s h i m s e l f C h a r l e s E . S m i t h and holds office as
C h i e f P s y c h i a t r i s t of the F e d e r a l B u r e a u of P r i s o n s and was
therefore another of Bobby Kennedy's subordinates, dutifully decided that G e n e r a l W a l k e r was probably insane. T h i s man of
science later testified that he was able to make this diagnosis at
a distance of a thousand m i l e s i n a few minutes by s i m p l y r e a d ing the lies d i s s e m i n a t e d by the A s s o c i a t e d P r e s s . He may, however, have applied the definition devised by D r . B r o c k C h i s h o l m ,
the protege of A l g e r H i s s and head of the s o - c a l l e d W o r l d Health
O r g a n i z a t i o n that was founded under H i s s ' s patronage to lead the
agitation for "mental health. " D r . C h i s h o l m o f f i c i a l l y holds that
"mental health" depends on " e r a d i c a t i o n of the concept of r i g h t
and wrong, " whence it follows, of course, that anyone who thinks
there is a difference between good and e v i l is obviously insane.
A r m e d with this opinion f r o m " D r . S m i t h , " one James V . Bennett,
holding office as U . S . D i r e c t o r of P r i s o n s , telegraphed o r d e r s to
the M a r s h a l s in Oxford, who hustled G e n e r a l W a l k e r aboard a
plane w h i c h at once took off for an unknown destination. It was
probably hoped that the destination could be kept secret until the
G e n e r a l had been disposed of. It became known, however, that
the kidnappers had transported their v i c t i m a c r o s s three state
lines'^'to the concentration camp in Springfield, M i s s o u r i , that i s
o f f i c i a l l y known as a F e d e r a l M e d i c a l P r i s o n . M r . S e e l i g , i n
a part of his story not included in the present book, says that
even before the G e n e r a l ' s a r r i v a l , w o r d went around among the

the U . S . Army. M r . Bartholomew was overpowered by his assailants, strapped to a bed, and reduced to unconsciousness with
hypodermic injections. Bound and kept under drugs, he was
flown to the United States for incarceration as a "mental patient"
in a hospital in which he could have promptly died of a "heart
attack." The plan miscarried, however, because M r s . Bartholomew refused to be tricked or intimidated, and, when an honorable employee in the office of Radio Free Europe disclosed what
had been done to her husband, was able to obtain the support of
persons of some influence in the United States. The victim was
therefore released. Two years later, in November and December, 1958, the shocking story was made public in a series of r a dio broadcasts by Fulton Lewis, J r .
A somewhat similar crime was committed by the Department of Agriculture when an honest attorney first came on evidence of the thefts being committed by little BillieSolEstes. The
attorney, N . Battle Hales, was lured to the office of the Secretary of Agriculture, where he was detained by an administrative
assistant while a goon squad was sent to destroy his files. His
secretary, Mary Kimbrough Jones, a well-bred lady of fifty-one,
tried to protect M r . Hales' files and would have been a witness to
their confiscation. The Federal gangsters accordingly kidnapped
her and hustled her to a "mental health" prison for disposal. A n
influential and courageous Congressman learned of the crime and
intervened in time. The lady was not killed, but her health was
for a time broken by the brutality to which she was subjected before her release could be procured.'*^
Many victims of such crimes have had no one to help them.
Governmental outrages have become commonplace, and the general public, apparently lost in a stupor, seems not to care. When
it was disclosed in the Congressional Record (May 4, 1964) that
the Attorney General of the United States had tampered with a
Grand Jury by sending cases of whiskey and prostitutes (including
female Marshals) to the jurors' rooms, everyone seemed to think
that that was just normal. The recent disclosure that blackmailers employed by the Federal government are supplied at our
expense with trucks that nmatch those used by local telephone companies so that they can withgreater ease violate Federal andState
laws and tap the telephones of decent Americans whom the ruling
Maffia wishes to harrass (see Counterattack, January 28, 1966)
that disclosure, I predict, will stir scarcely a ripple of interest.
If people remain indifferent while their scoff-law rulers weave a
net of tyranny about them and their posterity, they cannot pretend
to be morally superior to the African savages who sold their own
children into slavery for a scrap of copper wire or a bit of red
cloth.
No one thus far has dared openly to advocate criminal perversion of the law and ostensibly legal authority, and even the
most zealous Socialists, if they cannot deny the facts, take refuge

tragedy of our time that C h r i s t i a n i t y no longer p r o v i d e s the s o c i a l
cohesion that made our modern w o r l d p o s s i b l e . F o r a c o n s i d e r able part of our population, including a v e r y influential part of it,

or t a c i t l y rejected by those who would think i n s c i e n t i f i c or pract i c a l t e r m s . M o r e important than the number of agnostics and
atheists, however, i s the fact that the C h r i s t i a n churches have
been invaded, and many have been captured, by s o - c a l l e d " m o d e r n i s t s , " who i n their pulpits c y n i c a l l y exploit what they p r i v a t e l y
r e g a r d as superstition, and, by peddling the sentimental hokum
c a l l e d "the s o c i a l gospel, " p e r v e r t and destroy the v e r y foundations of the C h r i s t i a n i t y i n whose name they profess to speak.

A p u l e i u s d e s c r i b e d i n the eighth book of his M e t a m o r p h o s e s , and

Sexual d e s i r e , although not so strong a force as hunger,
greed, or vanity, is undoubtedly a b i o l o g i c a l force in every human
being, and this fact has made it throughout h i s t o r y a favorite
means of manipulating and exploiting men and women. It has
been used for that purpose by witch-doctors and shamans of e v e r y
age, including our own. When Sigmund F r e u d c r a w l e d f r o m the
sewers of Vienna w i t h the d i s c o v e r y that persons not so degenerate as he were " s i c k " and needed to be c u r e d by sexual m a g i c ,
he founded an e x t r e m e l y profitable racket. In an age of waning
r e l i g i o n , the notion that sex is v i r t u a l l y the whole of human life
and the only source of happiness fascinated the credulous; and,
to an extent s e l d o m equalled i n the m o s t o r g i a s t i c cults of barb a r i s m , the indulgence of sexual appetite has become the religion
of our c o n t e m p o r a r i e s . The cult has, of c o u r s e , been propagated
e n t h u s i a s t i c a l l y by the d i s c i p l e s of John Dewey, who have made
the public schools an instrument for promoting "democracy" by
injecting into the tender minds of c h i l d r e n the b e l i e f that life Ls
m e r e l y a s e r i e s of a n i m a l satisfactions. As a r e s u l t , our nation
is now suffering f r o m an e r o t i c monomania that ominously resem-,
bles the sexual frenzy that swept over France i m m e d i a t e l y before
the insane blood-bath that i s e u p h e m i s t i c a l l y c a l l e d the French
Revolution. In this context, homosexuality seems to be but one
aspect of a much l a r g e r p r o b l e m a n aspect which, since it i s
p a r t i c u l a r l y r e p u l s i v e , it is easy to ignore.
F i n a l l y , many A m e r i c a n s s t i l l regard homosexuality as a
m o r a l and s o c i a l p r o b l e m that has little r e l a t i o n to p o l i t i c s and
to our most immediate and t e r r i b l e danger, the B o l s h e v i k takeover which, despite a l l the protests and a c t i v i t y of belatedly

In
fact, v e r y few saw a connection between the two evils before the
publication of R. G . W a l d e c k ' s concise and excellent a r t i c l e , " H o m o s e x u a l I n t e r n a t i o n a l , " in Human E v e n t s , September 29, I960.
It was only then that people began to notice that, in the W e s t e r n
w o r l d , the l a i r s of t r e a s o n are i n v a r i a b l y a l s o the nesting-grounds
of degenerates.
P e r v e r t s a r e disgusting, but you cannot afford to ignore
them. M r . S e e l i g ' s s t o r y w i l l give you some indication of the
power that those furtive and foul c r e a t u r e s have attained over you
and there are a thousand pieces of evidence to c o n f i r m that
estimate.
T h e cause of the dark p e r v e r s i o n of human instincts .is obscure.
Homosexuality is found among many tribes of savages,
but that fact has little relevance h e r e . C i v i l i z a t i o n is by d e f i n i tion the p r o c e s s whereby human beings r e p r e s s and prevent the
conduct and behavior that is c h a r a c t e r i s t i c of savages.
The most c o m m o n explanation of homosexuality in societies
that can be c a l l e d c i v i l i z e d is that advanced by the great t r a v e l l e r
and ethnological o b s e r v e r . Sir R i c h a r d B u r t o n , in the c o m m e n t a r y appended to his famous t r a n s l a t i o n of the Thousand and One
Nights. F o r S i r R i c h a r d , the p r i m e cause is geographic and r a c i a l . He speaks of the Sotadic Zone, that is to say, the N e a r
E a s t , which is dominated by the Semitic and H a m i t i c peoples
among whom the v i c e i s inveterate and taken for granted, together
with the adjacent a r e a s of the M e d i t e r r a n e a n basin that those peoples occupy or have penetrated and influenced.
It is true that
among those inhabitants of the Sotadic Zone, homosexuality is
r e g a r d e d as n o r m a l , and S i r R i c h a r d believed that that was the
consequence of c e r t a i n a n a t o m i c a l p e c u l i a r i t i e s that a r e g e n e r a l l y
found in males and females of those r a c e s . Other o b s e r v e r s , esp e c i a l l y those who, during the F r e n c h occupation, o b s e r v e d behavior i n the Jewish and M o s l e m quarters of cities i n N o r t h A f r i ca, believe that a n a t o m i c a l differences are m u c h l e s s important
than the prevalent c u s t o m of subjecting infants to sexual abuse by
adults and of sanctioning among c h i l d r e n in their e a r l i e s t y e a r s
an a n i m a l - l i k e and p e r v e r s e sexuality of which most A m e r i c a n s
would believe c h i l d r e n of three to ten y e a r s p h y s i o l o g i c a l l y i n capable.

Whatever the r e a s o n , homosexuality is n o r m a l in the Sotadic Zone.**'' That m e r e l y means that we s h a l l have to r e s t r i c t our

the end, suicidal wars, would have been without that factor/"
The Romans, to whom we owe more than to the Greeks, felt
Western man's natural abhorrence of homosexuality. Although
degenerates were doubtless born from time to time, the contempt
universally felt for perverts probably sufficed to restrain their
tendencies, and when it did not, the stern ethos of the nation made
short work of them. As late as 125 B. C . , when the old paternal
authority had been greatly restricted, a Roman of the old school,
Q. Fabius Maximus Servilianus, who had held the highest offices
in the Roman Republic, peremptorily put his own son to death for
homosexuality. Such was the unflinching moral code that made
the Romans great. It was only after Rome had become a dominant power in the world by decisively defeating the Carthaginians
(202B. C ) , the Macedonians (197), and the Seleucid Empire (188),
and had suffered a great influx of aliens, including Orientals, that
we see the beginning of moral decay.
In 186 B . C . , just two years after the Roman legions had
shattered the power of the richest and most populous empire of
the Hellenistic Age, the Roman Senate, by a still extant decree,
tried to suppress the Bacchanalian rites of a cult that, originating
in Asia Minor, had reached Rome by way of Etruria, and used
the traditional "freedom of worship" as a cover for nocturnal
orgies of promiscuity and perversion. Investigation disclosed
that the alien "religion" was really a secret conspiracy that
worked systematically to seduce and corrupt adolescent boys and
girls, and practiced, in addition to sexual profligacy, such associated arts as the forging of wills and murder by poison. And,
significantly, a majority of the physiologically male members of
the Bacchanalian conspiracy were homosexuals, although the cult
(9)We can list a number of coincidences between honaosexuality and treason
but we cannot show that one was a cause, or even a factor, in the other. And to be
fair, we must record on the other side of the ledger a peculiar and inexplicable
phenomenon: it seems certain that in the Greek world there were homosexuals who
were men--even men of honor. We are assured (cf. Plutarch, Vit. Pelop., 18) that
in the Fourth Century the flower of the Theban army was, for an odd religious reason, composed of homosexuals.
With his superior forces and superior strategy,
Philip of Macedon finally won at Chaeronea, but when he did, the Sacred Regiment
lay dead to a man in their unbroken ranks. That is true greatness. If the story of
their customs is true, there must have been in one respect a fundamental difference between their world and our own, in which perversion and treason are almost
synonymous. The Honorable John Dowdy of Texas, who is in a position to be very
well informed, stated bluntly, "As far as I know, all of the security risks that have
deserted the United States and gone over to the Communists have been homosexuals. " (See the hearings on House Resolution 5990, August 8, 1964, p. 17). There
have been many such cases in Western nations.
A typical instance in the United
States is that of two "geniuses, " Bernon F . Mitchell and William H. Martin, who,,
trained at the Universities of Washington and Illinois and Stanford, where they were
known to be degenerates, ensconsed themselves in positions of strategic importance
in "our" National Security Agency (which, for vital reasons, should be our most
secret intelligence agency) while the Director of Personnel was a scabrous alien
named Maurice Klein, who had falsified his own record through perjury and forgery. Mitchell and Martin high-tailed it for Mother Russia in 1960, and it is rumored that the damage done by their treason has not yet been repaired. For a
comparable incident in Britain's Military Intelligence, see Burgess and Maclean
by Anthony Purdy and Douglas Sutherland (New York, Doubleday7~r963); the book
makes it clear that those "intellectuals" were known perverts and traitors when
they were installed in Military Intelligence by degenerates in higher governmental
positions who protected them for twelve years, enabled them to escape when exposure was imminent, and remained in power in the highest offices of the government of the Britain that once was Great.

women ready and eager for anything. ( F o r a full account, see.
L i v y , X X X I X , 8-19). A l l that sounds quite modern, doesn't i t ?
In 186 B . C . , therefore, we have the f i r s t c l e a r instance i n
r e c o r d e d h i s t o r y of a clandestine c o n s p i r a c y engaged i n a r e v o l t
against c i v i l i z a t i o n by using sex to entice adolescents into a life
of depravity and cirimeevidently for the sheer pleasure of dragging human beings down to the m o r a l n i h i l i s m i n w h i c h the c o n s p i r a t o r s find a strange satisfaction. A n d homosexuality was a
major part of a phenomenon that was to be repeated over and over
again i n the subsequent h i s t o r y of W e s t e r n c i v i l i z a t i o n .
In 186 B . C , intelligent Romans had to face a truth that few
A m e r i c a n s are w i l l i n g to face today: p e r v e r t s are f o r m i d a b l e , not
because they p r a c t i c e a disgusting v i c e among themselves, but
because they are d r i v e n by a demonic urge to c o r r u p t and defile
a l l mankind, to propagate not only p e r v e r s i o n but e v e r y f o r m of
c r i m e . F r o m 186 B . C . to 1966 A . D . the evidence constantly i n dicates that for many degenerates the p h y s i c a l p l e a s u r e that they
d e r i v e f r o m t h e i r p e r v e r s i o n i s quite secondary to the p l e a s u r e
they derive f r o m ensnaring and degrading c h i l d r e n and a d o l e s cents who would otherwise become decent men and women.
A t R o m e , the r e p r e s s i o n of the B a c c h a n a l i a n s checked the
infection for a t i m e , but not pernnanently. In 149 B . C . or t h e r e abouts the Romans enacted the L e x Scantina de stupro c u m m a s culo, w h i c h p r o v i d e d a heavy penalty for p e r v e r s i o n . A s e v e r y one knows, such laws cannot prevent; they can only discourage,
and their most important force i s e x p r e s s i o n of the standards of
the s o c i e t y that enacts them. R o m e , however, was suffering f r o m
c r e e p i n g m o r a l p a r a l y s i s that the Senate and conservative m a g i s trates to the v e r y end of the R e p u b l i c sought to combat by such
m e a s u r e s as the expulsion of s u b v e r s i v e aliens (which was only
t e m p o r a r y , since they, aided by wealth and influence, began to f i l ter back a l m o s t at once ) and m e a s u r e s to l i m i t the spread of
Oriental cults.
The L e x Scantina r e m a i n e d on the books; there were prosecutions under it as late as the Second Century after C h r i s t and
perhaps l a t e r . But the feeling that had i n s p i r e d it was g r a d u a l l y
eroded, and although h o m o s e x u a l i t y was never o f f i c i a l l y l e g a l i z e d ,
as has now been done i n the State of I l l i n o i s and w i l l probably be
done i n our entire nation as soon as E a r l W a r r e n gets around to
it, the law became v i r t u a l l y a dead letter. Before the end of the
R e p u b l i c , R o m a n w r i t e r s who wanted to be thought " i n t e l l e c t u a l "
and " s o p h i s t i c a t e d , " i m i t a t i n g the l i t e r a r y fashions of A l e x a n d r i a ,
which was the N e w Y o r k of the ancient w o r l d , d i d not hesitate to
confess perhaps f a l s e l y i n some cases that they were paed e r a s t s . A n d , p a r a l l e l i n g what happens in the United States t o day, one of C i c e r o ' s correspondents thought it a delightful joke
when a homosexual p e r v e r t was prosecuted under the L e x S c a n tina before a p r e s i d i n g judge who was h i m s e l f a p e r v e r t . Such
a society is fit only for despotism, and despotism was, of course
what the Romans gota d e s p o t i s m under which the old R o m a n
f a m i l i e s quickly died out and were r e p l a c e d by the descendants of
their s l a v e s .

" d e m o c r a c y , " and he was so beloved by a l a r g e p a r t of the popul a c e that for decades after his death the E m p i r e was d i s t u r b e d by

troops w e r e sent to put them down. A G r e a t Society always knows
its own.
I cannot pretend to t r a c e the h i s t o r y of h o m o s e x u a l i t y i n the
W e s t e r n w o r l d . B e f o r e the inevitable f a l l of the R o m a n E m p i r e ,
C h r i s t i a n i t y , w h i c h e x p l i c i t l y identifies h o m o s e x u a l i t y as an offense against G o d , became the e s t a b l i s h e d r e l i g i o n , and when the

that i n the W e s t e r n w o r l d , f r o m the f a l l of the R o m a n E m p i r e to
the t i m e of the F r e n c h R e v o l u t i o n , h o m o s e x u a l i t y was forbidden
and punished by v e r y stringent l a w s , both e c c l e s i a s t i c a l and c i v i l .
A n d those laws w e r e enforced, even against persons of high rank.
In E n g l a n d , for e x a m p l e , L o r d A u d l e y , E a r l of Castlehaven, was
c o n v i c t e d of sodomy and executed i n 1631. A n d as late as 1810,
at least, a c o m m i s s i o n e d officer i n the B r i t i s h A r m y and an e n l i s t e d man w e r e executed for the same offense. That m a y have
been the l a s t t i m e the death penalty was enforced. In the same
y e a r , the persons caught by the p o l i c e i n a r a i d on a h o m o s e x u a l
brothel i n L o n d o n w e r e m e r e l y sentenced to the p i l l o r y , but that
was not e x a c t l y light punishment since an indignant populace saw
to i t that they r e t u r n e d to p r i s o n looking m o r e l i k e heaps of g a r bage than human beings.
Of c o u r s e , during the fourteen centuries c o v e r e d by our
g e n e r a l i z a t i o n the laws and the s o c i a l standards they r e p r e s e n t e d
w e r e frequently v i o l a t e d . That i s m e r e l y what we should expect,
since v i o l a t i o n s could n o r m a l l y be detected dnly when the v i o l a t o r s t h e m s e l v e s a d v e r t i s e d t h e i r offenses.
But there w e r e many
c o r r u p t i n g influences at w o r k . It w o u l d take pages to l i s t them,
but i t should be noted that some of the most i m p o r t a n t w e r e a n t i C h r i s t i a n movements d i s g u i s e d as C h r i s t i a n h e r e s i e s or as o c cult " s c i e n c e . " A s everyone knows, a c o m m o n E n g l i s h t e r m for

reference is to a sect of h e r e t i c s , n:iore p r o p e r l y c a l l e d B o g o m i l s , who held Manichaean doctrines, a few of which, such as
denial of the divine b i r t h of C h r i s t and insistence on s o c i a l and
r a c i a l equality, are now held by l e a d e r s of t h e National C o u n c i l
of C h u r c h e s . T h e B o g o m i l s , who were notorious buggers, were
transported f r o m A s i a M i n o r to B u l g a r i a by the Byzantine E m p i r e , and f r o m their new home they sent s t r e a m s of zealous m i s s i o n a r i e s both eastward into what is now R u s s i a and westward i n to E u r o p e , where, f r o m the Tenth to the Fourteenth C e n t u r i e s ,
they planted various l o c a l h e r e s i e s , notably the P a t a r e n i i n northe r n Italy and the A l b i g e n s e s in southern F r a n c e . One need not
believe that a l l m e m b e r s of the latter sects adopted the sexual
p r a c t i c e s of the evangelists, but the B o g o m i l m i s s i o n a r i e s must
have exerted a v e r y considerable influence.
A g a i n , along the
shifting boundaries of E u r o p e and e s p e c i a l l y during the C r u s a d e s
Europeans came into contact with the Semitic peoples among whom
homosexuality is accepted as n o r m a l , and one result was that the
powerful o r d e r of Knights T e m p l a r , who held strongholds and r i c h
fiefs throughout E u r o p e until they were suppressed, were not only
noted as homosexuals but evidently made sexual p e r v e r s i o n a part
of their r i t u a l . ' " " Throughout the Middle A g e s and even in the
R e n a i s s a n c e s y s t e m s of magic, including n e c r o m a n c y and most
of alchemy, d e r i v e d f r o m the Kabbalah, were peddled throughout
E u r o p e , p a r t l y by enthusiasts who were v i c t i m s of their own (often drug-induced) hallucinations, but p r i n c i p a l l y , we m a y be sure,
by " i n t e l l e c t u a l s " who had found a convenient means of exploiting
the c r e d u l i t y of wealthy s u c k e r s . F r o m such o c c u l t i s m it was an
easy and natural p r o g r e s s to witchcraft and Satanism, and, as two
examplesthe infamous G i l l e s de R a i s , M a r e c h a l de F r a n c e in
the Fifteenth Century, and the notorious A l e i s t e r C r o w l e y in the
T w e n t i e t h - w i l l suffice to r e m i n d us, the w o r s h i p of e v i l has
always included the p r a c t i c e of homosexuality as an emphatic r e pudiation of the prejudices that prevent n o r m a l m e n f r o m joyously
wallowing in e v e r y kind of filthy self-debasement and disgusting

brokenbut i t is u n c e r t a i n whether he was w r i t i n g a d e s c r i p t i o n
or propaganda. M o r e significant are the confessions of P a c i f i c u s
M a x i m u s i n his H e c a t e l e g i u m : as a c h i l d he was sent to a g r a m m a r school i n w h i c h the headmaster, a s e c r e t but enthusiastic
paederast, i n s i s t e d on freeing a l l his pupils f r o m their inhibitions
so that he could have fun with them. In the Fifteenth Century,
parents were evidently as negligent or as awed by educational experts as they are today, and I r e g r e t to r e p o r t that the p r o g r e s sive headmaster was not hanged. In fact, he seems to have flouri s h e d . A n d there were many l i k e h i m .
Perhaps the most important factor of a l l was one that the
new science of genetics has only p a r t l y explained: b i o l o g i c a l degeneration. H e r e i s an example. L o u i s X I V of F r a n c e , although
he brought on F r a n c e such e v i l s as highly c e n t r a l i z e d government
and m i l i t a r y defeats, was undoubtedly a man. He had, however,
a brother, who was a l m o s t c e r t a i n l y l e g i t i m a t e , P h i l i p p e , Due
d ' O r l e a n s , who always wore women's underclothing and was only
with difficulty r e s t r a i n e d f r o m appearing at court i n s k i r t s . T h i s
engaging c r e a t u r e was, as p r o t o c o l r e q u i r e d , m a r r i e d to an Engl i s h p r i n c e s s , but became f u r i o u s l y jealous of his l e g a l wife b e cause he thought her attractive to men whom he wanted to love
h i m . So important a personage as the K i n g ' s brother n a t u r a l l y
had no l a c k of ambitious c o u r t i e r s w i l l i n g to use h i m as a m i s t r e s s , and we are not astonished to find h i m or, to be m o r e prec i s e , it engaged i n scabrous p o l i t i c a l intrigues and suspected of
having instigated s e v e r a l s e c r e t a s s a s s i n a t i o n s . L o u i s d i s l i k e d
P h i l i p p e , but he was not enough of a R o m a n to purge his own fami l y , nor was he enough of a C h r i s t i a n to feel effective c o n c e r n at
h a r m done to others. The r o y a l p e r v e r t was l i k e an open sore on
the body of F r a n c e when that nation was dominant i n E u r o p e . No
one can estimate how much h a r m was done by the conspicuous
c r e a t u r e , not m e r e l y i n spreading p e r v e r s i o n , but i n exciting ever y k i n d of d e m o r a l i z a t i o n , including contempt for the whole s o c i ety and even the r e l i g i o n that p e r m i t t e d so despicable a being to
hold rank next to the v e r y highest and to r e c e i v e honor and flatt e r y , however h y p o c r i t i c a l .

was otherwise composed of imported Moslems. Like the modern
"Liberal," however, Enrique had a heart that was tender only for
criminals and felt no compassion for decent people. When E n rique "farmed out" the extremely lucrative privilege of apportioning and collecting taxes (for a percentage) to a wealthy usurer.
Rabbi Josef of Segovia, and one of the latter's colleagues, he
authorized those remarkable officials to put to death without even
a hearing any citizen who was remiss in paying whatever they
chose to demand as taxes. Enrique was also, of course, a pacifist, although he was cunning enough to reach a secret understanding with Spain's enemies and then declare a fake war as a
pretext for extorting more taxes from his suffering people. E n rique, who was also an expert at inflating currency and debasing
the coinage by adulterating the silver, had many other progressive ideas. He undoubtedly knew what he was doing when he
placed his twelve-year-old half-brother, whom he later poisoned,
under a tutor who was a notorious pervert and who is said to have
been successful in that branch of education, although there is
some doubt and the boy had manhood enough to defend his sister,
Isabella, a few years later when Enrique tried to make her promiscuous at the age of fourteen. Whatever hereditary taints account for Enrique, they evidently did not reach his half-sister,
who eventually succeeded him on the throne and through whose
courage and ability the Kingdom of Castile became the Kingdom
of Spain.
The foregoing comments are not a history of perversion,
nor are they intended to show (what it would be obviously impossible to prove) that all homosexuals are inhuman monsters. But
for at least twenty-two centuries in the Western world, homosexuality has consistently been a factor in repudiation of all morality
and hence of civilization itself, which is obviously impossible
without a general and instinctively accepted moral code. It is not
a question of individuals who indulge in private practices that we
consider loathsome and that are, in Christian terms, offenses
against the Creator. What we must consider is a species that derives joy from the corruption of our children to its own level and
seems driven by an urge to destroy us. As the author of the a r ticle in Human Events that I cited above concisely puts it, the
members of the Homosexual International "constitute a worldwide conspiracy against society. " And that conspiracy is in our
time a subsidiary or ally of the International Communist Conspiracy, not because homosexiials are subject to blackmail, as charitable people are inclined to suppose, but because their instincts
lead them to the same frenzied hatred of Western civilization.
That--I repeat--is not to say that all homosexuals are sadists. Of the literary men whom I mentioned above, Wilde seems
to have had no criminal tendencies; Verlaine, it is true, tried to
kill his lov^r, Rimbaud (who had participated in the Communist
outbreak in Paris in 1870), but he probably had good reason; Gide
eventually became "disillusioned" with the Communists and even
criticized his former pals; and Proust was virtually a hermit.
It is entirely possible, even probable, that there are more
153

than a few secret homosexuals who have no desire or impulse to

destroy mankind, and we should all explicitly recognize that probability. Furthermore, it would be wrong to claim that the more
violent homosexuals are all Communists. One thinks, for example, of two wealthy and brilliant undergraduates in the University
of Chicago named Loeb and Leopold, who are still remembered
because in Chicago in the 1920's they kidnapped and killed a young
boy of their own race and social circle just for the perverted fun
of killing him. One thinks also of their contemporary, F r i t z
Haarman, another distinguished homosexual who attracted some
attention in Gernxany when it was discovered that for many years
he had been disposing of his boy-friends, as soon as he became
tired of them, by tearing their throats open with his teeth and then
grinding them up for sausage, which he sold in a delicatessen.
There is no indication that Lioeb, Leopold, or Haarmann were affiliated with the Communist Conspiracy, although they certainly
had the right instincts for leadership in the international revolution.
We must all face the highly unpleasant fact that homosexuality is usually associated (either as cause or effect--it would
be hard to say which) with sadism,
and that sadism in turn,
ivhen it does not find an outlet in acts of brutal violence, inspires
the' passion for "equality" and "social justice" that masquerades
as "idealism" and is accepted as such by unsuspecting persons
who do not see that the only purpose of the "idealists" is to incite
the violence and brutality that will give them a vicarious delight
even if they have no opportvinity to participate in it personally.
The very word sadism, by which we designate the lust to inflict
pain and degradation on others, is derived from the name of an
infamous pervert, the "Marquis" de Sade, author of what are
probably the vilest books ever written, who was precisely what
we should expect: a great apostle of the doctrine that a l l men are
born equal ("La nature nous a fait naitre tous egaux"), a vociferous advocate of what his successors call "economic democracy, "
and a close associate and collaborator of Marat, Robespierre,
and other blood-thirsty leaders of the French Revolution. De
Sade's career is merely typical: he was twice condemned to death
for atrocious crimes of the kind to which he has given his name,
but the sentences, unfortunately, were not carried out; he was i n
prison in 1790, when he was released by fellow idealists to participate in the "struggle for human r i g h t s , " and, i n addition to orating about egalite and fraternite, he personally had lots of fun for
thirteen years until Napoleon came to power and sent h i m back to
prison. Also typical of the born agitator i s the undergraduate at
the University of Chicago who in his diary deplored his " i n a b i l i t y
to control society" and to "run the world." He determined to make

to protect p e r v e r t s . In 1950, for example, an investigating committee under the c h a i r m a n s h i p of Senator Hoey (see Senate D o c u ment 241, E i g h t y - f i r s t C o n g r e s s ) a s c e r t a i n e d that there w e r e at

means both 'a jester' (sirailar to a haxiequin) and 'a gay ball. ' In the argot of perverts in the United States, gay means homosexual. In Italian card-games, a matta
is a 'joker' or 'wild' card, wHTch can have any value at the option of the person who
plays it. The 'gay bars' or 'gay clubs' that are found in every sizeable city in our

hundred thousand and probably more were employed in the F e d eral government. There was, perhaps, some slight additional
shock at the discovery that the Mattachines' head was seconded
by Professor M . H. Freedman of the Law School of George Washington University. (Alas, poor George! He was not a "fellow of
infinite jest," and I fear that his gorge would rise, if he knew that
Freedmans were capering under his name. ) Prof. Freedman, a
choice fruit from the hothouse of Harvard University, refused to
state under oath whether or not he was a Mattachine, but appeared
on behalf of the hoary old American Civil Liberties Union to argue
that associated perverts have a right to pose as a "charitable"
organization and solicit contributions from the public to disseminate propaganda for perversion. It was that impudent solicitation in the District of Columbia that brought the matter before the
Congressional Committee of which the Honorable John Dowdy of
Texas was chairman, and so led to the published hearings on
House Resolution 5990 in August, 1963, and January, 1964. Congressman Dowdy is a Democrat, - but I need not add that the Democratic Administration in Washington used every resource of the
United States Treasury to prevent his re-election in November,
1964.
The perverts became even bolder when, on May Z9, June 26,
and July 31, 1965, they threw a line of pickets around the White
House, the Pentagon, and the Civil Service Commission to "protest" against "discrimination. " Most of the pickets, including
clergymen, f"Vwore trousers; a few wore skirts. There was no
medical examination to determine to what sex, if any, they belonged. Their banners claimedthat--despite the discreaminashion
of which they complained--there were a quarte^r of a million of
them esconsed in the Federal government's bureaucracy, another
quarter of a million snugged down in the Armed Services, and a
total of 15, 000, 000 of them in the United States., all, presumably,
ready to vote for their heart's desire. The first figure is probably correct; the second probably counts former members of the
Armed Services, including the many direct commissions directly
ordered by Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt; and the third is undoubtedly an exaggeration for purposes of political blackmail,
since the organized perverts, who have long maintained secret
slush funds to elect secret perverts to high political office, especially in California, came partly into the open in 1965 with the
establishment of a "Society for Individual Rights" (more commonly designated as SIR--fawncy that!) for the avowed purpose-of
establishing "a homosexual voting bloc as a political factor to be
reckoned with. "
"Fifteen million" is certainly an exaggeration, but there
seems to be no way of determining how gross an exaggeration it
is.<"' If, for example, we deducted ninety per-cent for enthusiasm

and political purposes, would the figure of 1, 500, 000 be too high
or too low? Perhaps the latter, but one can only guess. We certainly must not underestimate the efficiency of the perverts in
their "missionary activities."'' Many pf them carry on such activities compulsively, and many of them in comparatively high
positions take risks that no sane man would takeand do so for
no conceivable reason other than an urge to make converts.
When, for example, the rector of the wealthiest church in a large
town was finally arrested because, after repeated warnings, he
persisted in hanging around the gates of an A i r - F o r c e training
school to accost young recruits and offer them homosexual fun,
we cannot suppose that His Reverence was just lonely. He bebelonged to a club or circle of fellow perverts, and the only explanation is that he felt a call to spread a gospel that he found
much more attractive than the New Testament, a Book which he
was accustomed to mention on Sundays. When the managing editor of a daily newspaper, long known as a leader in a little clique
of his kind, tries to drug and rape a young plain-clothes policeman, we can only suppose that he felt an overwhelming urge to
recruit for his cult, although he, of all people, should have been
aware of the risk he was taking. Most incidents of this kind are
"hushed up" by political and other pressures so that they are seldom known outside the community in which they occur and provide
a subject for amused comment, but occasionally, since "Liberal"
censorship of our press is not yet complete, some typical episodes become more widely known. For example, the UnitedPress
in a dispatch from Philadelphia on October 21, 1965, noted that
the Professor of Sociology (and head of the department) in a wellknown college had overplayed his luck in his avocation of riding
street cars to pick up young boys and entice them to an apartment
in which, after plying them with alcohol, he could help them overcome their inhibitions. Of course, the Big Brain could have found
plenty of partnersincluding juvenileswithout the slightest risk
of arrest, had he been so minded. In England, according to a
Reuters despatch from London, April 30, 1965, a slight stir was
occasioned when Baron Moynihan, who had been chairman of Britain's Liberal Party, was arrested by the police while he, in the
capacity of a "male" prostitute, was accosting men on the streets
of London and soliciting business at bargain rates.

antics of the Conirate who dodged behind the Fifth Amendment and insolently played
peek-a-boo with the Committee was the testimony of the leading director of the
Foundation, one D r . Peter Odegard, Professor of Political Science in the University of California, formerly President of Reed College in Oregon, and before that
Assistant to the Secretary of the Treasury in Washington, when that office was held
by Morgenthau and controlled by the Bolshevik agent who called himself Harry Dexter White. Professor Odegard swore that he had no faintest suspicion that there
was Communist influence in the operations of Pacifica Foundation, and if you choose
to believe him, you will have before you a measure of the amount of intelligence
now needed to hold a quite important office in the Federal government, the presidency of a fairly well-known college, and the headship of the Department of "Political Science" in one of the largest universities in the nation. You will then conclude that the prediction made by Lothrop Stoddard a quarter of a century ago, that
our civilization would collapse for sheer lack of brains, has already been fulfilled.

and sixteen provide the most fun, and he proves his point by recounting, in the style of a romantic novelist, the wondrous fun
thus had by university professors, scout masters, graduate students, rabbis, and the like. It would be supererogatory to argue
with Professor Eglinton. If you are an American and have children for whom you care, or if you are under seventy and hope that
the United States will last your time, it will be obvious to you that
his species and ours cannot long coexist in the same;territory.
The total effects of homosexuality on our society are really
incalculable. The power and activity of the filthy mass of perverts and traitors in Washington is too well-known to require
comment here, but there are other effects of which we know so
little quantitatively that we can do no more than speculate about
their social importance. Consider, for example, the distinguished
clergyman (and fervent apostle of "racial equality") whose tastes
are described by the experienced police-investigator, Hubert J .
Badeaux, in his authoritative book, The Underworld of Sex (New
Orleans, privately printed and distributed only to responsible
subscribers to the Civic Review, 1959). This Shepherd of Souls
is a pervert and has, what is extremely common among his species, a passionate predilection for Negro "husbands. " He also
maintains, as do many perverts, a wife as protective covering. ^24)
He is thus able to enjoy not only the services of his black
"lover, " but also the added titillation of watching and participating, while his legal wife serves as a whore for his Congoid
"husband." The reverend animal whose delectations are described by M r . Badeaux is by no means unique. Some observers
think it probable that similar amusements account for otherwise
inexplicable enthusiasm for the "Civil Rights" movement in clerical circles, and this view is to some extent supported by the behavior of the vermin that the Communist Conspiracy sent into
Selma, Alabama, last year.'") It must be emphasized, however,
that all such explanations, given the paucity of specific and authenticated data available, can be no more than speculative.
I have commented at some length on homosexuality because
that is directly relevant to M r . Seelig's report of what he and his
(24;Thie is extremely common. The self-advertised homosexual, Donald W.
Cory, in The Homosexual in A m e r i c a , says that for members of the species "marriage is looked upon as a 'front, ' an artificial facade . i . the almost perfect silencer of talk which is slanderous, although truthful. " Cory demands legalization of
m a r r i a g e between persons of his/its sex. He is modest. E a r l Warren, by applying the logic of his infamous "Black Monday" decision, could simply forbid marriage between a man and a woman on the grounds that such a marriage would make
perverts unhappy and make them feel inferior. Lawrence Lipton of the University
of California in Los Angeles in The Erotic Revolution (Los Angeles, Sherbourne
Press, 1965) is principally interested in showing that he has mastered the vocabulary seen on the walls of latrines in the slums, in yelling that all morality is "obsolescent, " in whooping it up for universal promiscuity (with wife-swapping clubs
for those who are so ultra-conservative as to marry at all), and a general return
to the standards of savages. In passing, however, he does recommend a household
in which two "male" homosexuals and two "Lesbians" form a foursome, so that joy
may be unconfined.
(25)On the behavior of the mangey rats that descended on Selma to promote the
GreatSociety, see Albert C . Persons' booklet. The True Selma Story (Birmingham,
Alabama, Esco Publishers, $1.00). The animals, by the way, were hired at a hundred dollars a head; see the pay-check with authenticating affidavit reproduced in
The Birmingham Independent, September 15, 1965.

beloved children have suffered at the hands of organized degenerates and the vast criminal apparatus of which they are an i m portant part. I do not mean to give the subject iindue prominence
and I hope that the reader will remember that we are dealing with
only one of the components of a complex of subversion, the various parts of which fit into one another as do the pieces of a Chinese puzzle.
There are very significant sexual perversions that are not,
strictly speaking, homosexual, but, in contemporary society, at
least, combine with it to form part of a larger unit. For example, although most of us do not know it, we American taxpayers
nnaintain a Whore Corps to entertain Communists and Cannibals
whenever they come to Washington to haul another load of our
money out of our Treasury.
That, of course, is merely the
kind of service to "underdeveloped nations" that everyone takes
for granted, but what is significant is that there are real difficulties in maintaining morale in the Whore Corps. 5ome of the distinguished internationalists who come to promote "world law" by
taking our gold do prefer women, but only when they have been
suitably prepared with a buggy-whip so that their bodies are
covered with the blood that oozes or gushes from welts and wounds
thus inflicted. Now although it is doubtless deplorable from a
One-Worlder's point of view, it is, I think, understandable that
even females who have been thoroughly emancipated from "bourgeois prejudices" and imbued with a desire for "international understanding" quail when the lash bites into their flesh. In fact,
it was in consequence of such weakness that many Americans received their first notice of that form of recreation. I A woman,
sent by "our" State Department to entertain one of our parasites
in the suite we had provided for him, lost her nerve when the
whip was produced as soon as she stripped for the occasion; she
ran nude through the corridors of the hotel, thus attracting some
attention, although the establishment was one frequented by the
creme de la creme of our governing ochlocracy. The incident
was therefore reported in the press.
The press, however, has not thus far seen fit to comment
on the very expensive establishments in Washington and Florida
in which the more masculine members of our elite begin by selecting from a rack the jewel-handled whip that will make the female of their choice sexually attractive. Now the great-hearted
humanitarians who share the "Marquis" de Sade's passion for
"human equality" and related matters are not, in that aspect of
their activity, homosexuals, but Americans who have not yet attained "mental health" will regard them as perverts.
Perversion, in turn, is but one phase of the erotic mania
that has been cunningly induced in our country, largely through
the public schools, and is now being whetted to exasperation by
the flood of pornography which, under the patronage of E a r l Warren and his acolytes, is now flooding our newstands for the instruction of those children and adolescents who do not have it

162

forcibly administered to them in their classrooms.'^^^ Most of

this sewage is not specifically homosexiaal; it is simply Sotadic,
and could have as its motto the remark attributed to a notorious
actress of the past generation: "Male sex? Female sex? What
do I care, so long as it is sex?" In this connection, of course,
one thinks of the ferret-faced Ralph Ginzberg, who edited the lush
pornographic periodical called Eros and now edits a possibly more
pernicious thing called Fact while he, having been sentenced to
seven years in prison for his lewd publications, is out on bond
and waiting for Comrade E a r l to think up a pretext for turning him
loose. It must be admitted that Ginzberg's excretions, both in
themselves and because they were somewhat expensive, were
probably not so poisonous as the incredibly filthy novel. The
Awakening of Cindy, which was spread over the newsstands as a
"paper-back" for the instruction of every schoolchila who had
seventy-five cents.
According to Newsweek (April 12, 1965), the author of that
printed orgy of homosexuality and pormiscuity was, by chance,
discovered to be the Reverend D r . Arthur Edwin Shelton, pastor
of the Wesley Memorial Methodist Church of Norfolk, Virginia.
Readers of that report must have wondered whether the Man of
God was merely trying to spread degeneracy for a fast buck or
found some deeper satisfaction in his labors for his Lord.
It would require a volume, however, to treat pornography
and erotic mania in our time, and that, in turn, would be merely
one phase of the laniversal sabotage of our culture and our nation
by our enemies. To discuss that, we should have to try to trace
the dark history of the Communist Conspiracy.
Whether Americans have, by blind optimism and gross negligence, permitted that crafty and subtle sabotage to go too far
for the nation to be preserved is a question both difficult and painful. It will be answered by the events of the next two or three
years, at most. F o r the purposes of this commentary, however,
let us assume that the completion of the Bolshevik capture of our
country ih averted by divine intervention or an almost equally
miraculous arousal of our long dormant instinct for self-preservation.
On that assumption, what shall we be able to do about the
epidemic of homosexuality? It seems to me that four conclusions
emerge from the foregoing discussion, viz. :
(1) We cannot prevent by legislation the practice of homosexuality. Laws are obviously ineffectual when violations of them
can be discovered only by rare accidents or in very unusual c i r cumstances.
(2) By simply enforcing the penalties now provided by law
in most states, we can inhibit and hold toa minimum the perverts'
compulsive "missionary activities. " Furthermore, if existing
laws were enforced, the control of our Federal government and
(26)Pornography is a business which now grosses more than two billion dollars
a year in the United States (see United Press despatch from Washington, A p r i l 18,
1965); it appears to be largely in the hands of aliens. Many of the vermin engaged
in it are notorious Communists and Communist-fronters; see the articles by John
Benedict in the American Mercury, January, 1960, pp. 3-15, and February, 1960,
pp. 3-21.
The vermin retaliated by driving the M e r c u r y from the newsstands
throughout the nation. See also the bulletin, "Communism and Pornography, " by

KREMLIN MENTAL HEALTH CURSE ON U.S.

"The Communist Manual of Instructions for Psychopolitical Warfare" was
drafted by Soviet scientists for Joseph Stalin and Commissar Lavrenti Beria, former
head of the Soviet Secret Police. It became the format for blueprinting the mental
health and psychiatry legislation in the United States to regiment the nation under
a psychiatric police state.
Congressman Usher L. Burdick and Edgar Hiestand, as well as Kenneth Goff,
who for three years was a Communist o f f i c i a l for Youth Groups, gave warnings to Congress, with documented evidence entered into Congressional Record, that "mental
health" and psychiatry Federal projects originated in the Soviet for subversive
regimentation of Americans!
You w i l l readily recognize the mental health and psychiatric advances that
have already been legislated in the United States from the excerpts:
"The general propaganda which would best serve Psychopolitics would be
a continual insistence that certain authoritative levels of healing, deemed this or
that the correct treatment of insanity. These treatments must always include a certain amount of brutality. Propaganda should continue and stress the rising i n c i dence of insanity in a country. The entire f i e l d of human behaviour, for the benef i t of the country, can, at, length, be broadened into abnormal behaviour. Thus, anyone indulging in any eccentricity, particularly the eccentricity of combating psychop o l i t i c s , could be silenced by the authoritative opinion on the part of a psychopolitical operative that he was acting in an abnormal fashion. This, with some good
fortune, could bring the person into the hands of the psychopolitical operative so
as to forever more disable him, or to swerve his loyalties by pain-drug hypnotism.
"The values of a widespread mental health organization are manifest when
one realizes that any government can be forced to provide f a c i l i t i e s for psychopolitical operatives in the form of psychiatric wards in a l l hospitals, in,national i n stitutions totally in the hands of psychopolitical operatives, and in the establishment of clinics for youth.
"If a psychiatric ward could be established in every hospital in every
city in a nation, i t is certain that, at one time or another, every prominent c i t i zen of that nation could come under the ministrations of psychopolitical operatives
or their dupes.
"Psychopolitical operatives should be alert to the opportunity to organize
'for the betterment of the community' mental health clubs or groups. By inviting the
cooperation of the population as a whole in mental health programs, each of these
mental health groups, properly guided, can bring legislative pressure against the
government to secure adequately the position of the psychopolitical operative, and to
obtain for him government grants and f a c i l i t i e s , thus bringing a government to f i nance i t s own downfall.
"City o f f i c i a l s , socialites, and other unknowing individuals, on the subject of mental health, should be invited to f u l l cooperation in the activity of mental health groups. The activity should be to finance better f a c i l i t i e s for the psychopolitical practitioner. It must be continually stressed that the entire subject
of mental illness i s so complex that none of them could understand any part of i t .
Where groups interested in the health of the community have already been formed, they
should be infiltrated and taken over.
"Thus, a psychiatric advisor should be placed near to hand in every government operation. As a l l suspicions would then be referred to him, no action would
ever be taken, and the goal of Communism could be realized in that nation.
"By bringing about public conviction that the sanity of a person is in
question, i t Is possible to discount and eradicate a l l of the goals and activities of
that person. By demonstrating the insanity of a group, or even a government, i t is
possible, then, to cause i t s people to disavow i t . By magnifying the general human
reaction to insanity, through keeping the subject to insanity i t s e l f forever before
the public eye, and then by u t i l i z i n g this reaction by causing a revulsion on the
part of a populace against i t s leader or leaders, i t is possible to stop any government or movement.

Petitioner Fred Seelig is i n v o k i n g his rights as p r o v i d e d for in the Bill

AFFIDAVIT DESCRIBES TORTURE OF PRISONERS

P e r v e r s i o n , t o r t u r e , beatings, and maiming of prisoners i n Federal Penitent i a r i e s were upheld by Federal Judges. P e t i t i o n s were f i l e d for r e l i e f i n Los Angel e s , San Francisco, Kansas C i t y and S t . Louis Federal Courts. Judges Yankwich and

Angeles to abide by the C o n s t i t u t i o n and give r u l i n g s on c i v i l r i g h t s . A copy a t tached as an e x h i b i t in a p e t i t i o n to the U.S. Supreme Court reads:
"Your r u l i n g denying me the r i g h t to an a p p l i c a t i o n f o r a Writ of Mandamus c a l l i n g f o r the U.S. D i s t r i c t Court to adhere to the United States Cons t i t u t i o n and the Rules of Procedure f o r United States Courts, was received.

"Homosexuality has proven i t s power and influence in government as

Los Angeles Federal Judge Leon Yankwich denied a l l motions and hearings on

Courts to protect my son and daughter from homosexuality; denied me t r a n s c r i p t s of
proceedings in his court as evidence and proof they were rigged; denied surrender of
confiscated evidence and was upheld on a l l denials by the San Francisco U.S. Court

U.S. ATTORNEY FALSIFIES AND DISTORTS FACTS

The p e n i t e n t i a r y o f f i c i a l s and p s y c h i a t r i s t s stopped my documents to Federal Courts. They a l s o denied the r i g h t of l e t t e r s to attorneys on the claim I was
"too Insane and too Incompetent to defend myself." My answer was in a " P e t i t i o n f o r
Order to Enforce Rights Guaranteed by the U.S. C o n s t i t u t i o n , " dated September 30,
1961, and was to be mailed to the Federal Courts In Kansas C i t y , M i s s o u r i , as a comp l a i n t against R.O. S e t t l e , warden of the Medical Center. The p e t i t i o n was refused
m a i l i n g , I then made i t " E x h i b i t X-2" in an a f f i d a v i t to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Excerpt f o l l o w s :
"Frederick S e e l i g , acting as his own attorney, who, f i r s t being duly
sworn upon his oath, deposes and says:
"His r i g h t s guaranteed by the United States C o n s t i t u t i o n are being
v i o l a t e d by the U.S. Medical Center P e n i t e n t i a r y : l e t t e r s and documents
are being censored and withheld from mailing to United States Courts. Letters he has attempted to mail to attorneys have been refused m a i l i n g . He
has been t o l d he whall never see or know what became of his minor daughter
and son.
"He questions the c o n s t i t u t i o n a l i t y of the prison regulations which
p r o h i b i t him from communicating with attorneys to seek t h e i r a s s i s t a n c e .
This i s i n v i o l a t i o n of the S i x t h Amendment guaranteeing his " r i g h t to have
assistance of counsel" and Rule 44 f o r Federal Courts, 1n pertinent part:
' r i g h t to counsel ,,, at every stage of the proceedings,'
Kansas C i t y Federal Judge Floyd R. Gibson, In denying a Habeas Corpus
hearing, r e f e r r e d to the charge against me as a " f e l o n y . " That, a l s o , was a f a l s i t y .
His order, dated June 26, 1962, f u r t h e r evidences the Federal Courts do not abide by
the C o n s t i t u t i o n in c i v i l r i g h t s f o r p r i s o n e r s , e s p e c i a l l y the unconvicted, i m p r i soned under the Communist p s y c h i a t r i c prosecution in Sections 4244-46, U,S, Codes.
The order covered appeal p e t i t i o n s Nos, 13929, -30, - 3 1 . Judge Gibson, as Judge
Yankwich d i d , s h i f t e d from c r i m i n a l codes to c i v i l codes f o r basis of his r u l i n g s
despite the f a c t that I had been imprisoned under a criminal s t a t u t e .

RIGHTS OF HABEAS CORPUS SUSPENDED

Judge Gibson denied forma pauperis to proceed with appeals, denied an order
to require S o c i a l S e c u r i t y Administration to pay benefits which had accumulated to
$1,400 and were w i t h h e l d ; upheld penal servitude despite statutes p r o h i b i t i n g forced
labor on an undonvicted p r i s o n e r ; denied hearing on t o r t u r e and b r u t a l i t i e s by prison
p s y c h i a t r i s t s ; upheld censorship of court documents and r e f u s a l to m a i l .
He c a l l e d my p e t i t i o n s for hearings " l i b e l o u s and s c u r r i l o u s , " Judge Gibson a l s o upheld imprisonment f o r years without t r i a l or c o n v i c t i o n ; j o i n e d in with
Judge Yankwich with an order v i o l a t i n g the F i r s t Amendment by suspending habeas corpus and denying r i g h t to p e t i t i o n f o r redress of grievances.

S e e l i g vs, U,S,A,

"The r u l i n g of the court on denial of appeal of the above captioned

"The court in previous r u l i n g mentioned that I might have r e l i e r when

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA DISTRICT

Comes now FREDERICK SEELIG, who f i r s t being sworn upon h i s oath deposes and says:
That h i s r i g h t s guaranteed by the United States C o n s t i t u t i o n and the
Rules of the Criminal Procedure f o r the United States Courts were v i o l a t e d by the
United States Attorney and the United States D i s t r i c t Court o f Southern C a l i f o r n i a
i n Los Angeles on iiarch 13th, March 20th, and A p r i l 3 r d , 1961.
His c r i m i n a l case (No. 2781, U.S. D i s t r i c t Court f o r the Northern Dist r i c t of Texas) (No. 29529, U.S. D i s t r i c t Court f o r the Southern D i s t r i c t of C a l i f o r n i a ) o r i g i n a t e d i n the U.S. D i s t r i c t Court f o r the Northern D i s t r i c t of Texas
and was t r a n s f e r r e d to Los Angeles f o r t r i a l .
Under RULE 20 of the Criminal Procedure f o r the United States Courts,
the U.S. D i s t r i c t Court of Southern C a l i f o r n i a had no f u r t h e r j u r i s d i c t i o n on
March 13, 1961 when he pleaded NOT GUILTY and therefore subsequent proceedings,
orders and r u l i n g s of the C a l i f o r n i a d i s t r i c t court were improper, i r r e g u l a r and
illegal.
He quotes, i n p e r t i n e n t p a r t , RULE 20:
"If afteji the ploceedlng kai be.eii tAamfe.>uied the defendant pleads not guilty,
tiie clenk ihall leXu/m tixe papeja to the count In whldi the pxoieuit.ion viai,
conmenced and the ploceedinq ihall be le^toled to tlie docket of that couAt."
His commitment to the U.S. Medical Center Prison a t S p r i n g f i e l d , Mo.,
was unlawful and he i s i l l e g a l l y imprisoned.

The United States D i s t r i c t Court of Los Angeles and the United States
Attorney proceeded unlawfully i n appointing a doctor to t e s t i f y the defendant,
FREDERICK SEELIG i s insane, a homosexual, and had been f o r at l e a s t f i v e y e a r s .
The testimony of Dr. Thomas Gore was faked and f a l s i f i e d .
The lower court and the United States Attorney v i o l a t e d the defendant's
c o n s t i t u t i o n a l r i g h t s when he was denied and deprived witnesses to t e s t i f y in h i s
b e h a l f , refused a reading of the f i n d i n g s of the U.S. P u b l i c Health Service Hospit a l ' s f i v e member medical c h i e f s of s t a f f , a f t e r a 30-day examination and observat i o n , upholding h i s m e n t a l i t y , i n t e l l i g e n c e , and c a p a b i l i t y to go to t r i a l .
He therefore c i t e s RULE 5:
"Tkz de.^zndani may cAea-zxcminz
MitnzAm
agalnit kirn and may intAoduct
zvldtnca In kii
be.kaZi."
His evidence was i l l e g a l l y c o n f i s c a t e d from him while i t was i n the
c u s t o d i a l care of the U.S. Marshal.
This was in v i o l a t i o n of the Fourth Amendment of the United States Cons t i t u t i o n , p e r t i n e n t part of a previous r u l i n g :
"...

?a. 1944, 141
nd 45.
He was deprived of the r i g h t to have witnesses appear i n h i s behalf.
This was i n v i o l a t i o n of the S i x t h Amendment i n pertinent p a r t :
"...

to kavz compuZio'uj ploctii

of, obtcUning MitnUieJi in IvU iavot."
He had dismissed the s u b s t i t u t e d attorney f o r the P u b l i c Defender and
that the s u b s t i t u t e d attorney ignored the d i s m i s s a l notices by l e t t e r s as well as
to the c o u r t , and proceeded i n representing him.
He therefore c i t e s :

He was subjected t o , and s t i l l i s , inhuman treatment with c r u e l t i e s i n flicted.

of the 8th Amendment: " . . . nor cruel and unusual punishment i n f l i c t e d . "
Cruel and unusual punishment was i n f l i c t e d upon him i n the Potter

C a l i f o r n i a ) j a i l and i s being i n f l i c t e d on him i n the U.S. Medical Center Prison at
Springfield, Missouri.
Since h i s a r r e s t , j a i l i n g , and imprisonment l a s t December 2 , 1960 he
was denied outside communication with f r i e n d s , thwarted by d i l a t o r y t a c t i c s to obt a i n c o u n s e l , h e l d . i n t i g h t s e c u r i t y i n s o l i t a r y confinement c e l l s , denied due process of law and that the subterfuge of mental incompetency and i n s a n i t y has been
used by the United States Attorney to prevent h i s being given a t r i a l on slander
charges and that the United States Attorney has r e s o r t e d t o i r r e g u l a r , and improper
and corrupt p r a c t i c e s to s e i z e and conceal h i s evidence.
As h i s prosecutor he became h i s j a i l e r i n imprisoning him i n the U.S.
Medical Center P r i s o n , governed and operated by the U.S. Department of J u s t i c e .
He requests a hearing to n u l l i f y the proceedings, based on testimony
of record and orders of the U.S. D i s t r i c t Court of Los Angeles. I t w i l l show reasons the court had no j u r i s d i c t i o n and h i s c o n s t i t u t i o n a l r i g h t s have been v i o l a t e d

P s y c h i a t r i c findings and report

Comes now, FREDERICK SEELIG, who acting as h i s own a t t o r n e y , upon being duly
sworn upon h i s oath deposes and says:
That t r a n s c r i p t s o f January 3, 1961 o f the proceedings i n the U.S. D i s t r i c t
Court o f A m a r i l l o , Texas, and o f March 13, 20 and A p r i l 3 o f the U.S. D i s t r i c t Court
of Los Angeles, C a l i f o r n i a , have been denied him;
That the t r a n s c r i p t s w i l l d i s c l o s e that h i s r i g h t s , guaranteed under and by
the United States C o n s t i t u t i o n , were v i o l a t e d , as well as the Rules of Procedure f o r
United States Courts;
That a f t e r he spent 30 days under observation and had been given comprehens i v e t e s t s as t o h i s s a n i t y and h i s i n t e l l i g e n c e a t the U.S. P u b l i c Health Service
Hospital Prison at Fort Worth, Texas, found sane, competent, and had been returned
to A m a r i l l o f o r t r i a l , the s a n i t y report o f the five-member medical board was w i t h held and suppressed both i n Amarillo and l a t e r i n Los Angeles U.S. D i s t r i c t Courts;
He therefore requests mandamus w r i t s be issued f o r the aforesaid t r a n s c r i p t s
and the medical board's report and hearings be h e l d .
Supression and concealment o f the t r a n s c r i p t s and the medical report by the
United States Attorney are defeating the ends of j u s t i c e i n h i s being ' r a i l r o a d e d '
i n t o the U.S. Medical Center Prison at S p r i n g f i e l d , M i s s o u r i , on the faked and f a l s i f i e d testimony and report o f Dr. Thomas Gore, appointed by the U.S. Attorney to adjudge your p e t i t i o n e r insane and ' l e g a l l y insane f o r at l e a s t f i v e y e a r s , ' a f t e r he

S e e l i g , who knowingly signed that document, that gave a f a l s i f i e d address, 633 Flowe r S t r e e t , Venice, C a l i f o r n i a , as the e s t a b l i s h e d and legal residence, whereas the
legal residence and home was at 1057 West 74th S t r e e t , Los Angeles, C a l i f o r n i a , and
that a proper p e t i t i o n (D-5288862) f o r divorce and custody of the c h i l d r e n was on
f i l e since October 31, 1957 In the Downtown Los Angeles Superior Court.
On August 26, 1958, homosexual p e r v e r t s , together with the mother, Charlotte
S e e l i g , and her lesbian l o v e r , Helen Schade, then known as Helen Armbrust with
other lesbians looted the e s t a b l i s h e d home at 1057 West 74th S t r e e t , Los Angeles,
C a l i f o r n i a , taking the two minor c h i l d r e n with them Into hiding to an address unknown
to p e t i t i o n e r , and on or about September 1, 1958, abandoned the c h i l d r e n In the care
of a j u v e n i l e , Dessie Bolen, then 17, i n a shack i n the rear of 633 Flower S t r e e t ,
Venice, C a l i f o r n i a , The mother and her lesbian lover went to l i v e at another address,
unknown to the p e t i t i o n e r .
During t h i s p e r i o d , p e t i t i o n e r was making a f r a n t i c day and night search for
his daughter and son and was denied the help of a l l law enforcement agencies on claim
there was no law against homosexuals or homosexuality. In mid-October, p e t i t i o n e r
appealed to the C a l i f o r n i a State Senate Committee on Law Enforcement, and C a l i f o r n i a
State Senator Edwin Regan. . A f t e r i n v e s t i g a t i o n by the State Senate Committee's
i n v e s t i g a t o r s , Murray Stravers and Tom S l a c k , ruled that the c h i l d r e n were i n the
hands of perverts and there were ample laws f o r p o l i c e to act and j o i n i n the search
f o r the c h i l d r e n .
Stravers and Slack were ordered to confer with p o l i c e o f f i c i a l s , accompanied by p e t i t i o n e r , father of the c h i l d r e n . At that time only the p e t i t i o n e r
and Edward Mosk, attorney, aside from the committee, knew t h i s p o l i c e action was
to take p l a c e .
On October 24, 1958, almost on the eve of the p o l i c e conference p e t i t i o n e r
was served with a documentSMO 17743, at a newspaper In Pasadena, C a l i f o r n i a ,
where p e t i t i o n e r was working. I t ended the search and averted o f f i c i a l p o l i c e
action.
Attorney Mosk knew the document SMD 17743 was not only i r r e g u l a r but fraudulent and he s a i d he would act on i t . He stated that his brother, Stanley Mosk, then
a judge i n Santa Monica Superior Court, and now Attorney General for C a l i f o r n i a , had
been consulted.
P e t i t i o n e r requested at that time a r e s t r a i n i n g order against the c h i l dren being exposed to homosexual p e r v e r t s , persons of Immoral character and Immoral
environment. Attorney Mosk t o l d p e t i t i o n e r that under C a l i f o r n i a law he would
f i r s t have to consult with the attorney f o r the homosexuals, Charles Morrison, f o r
agreement and accord, f o r a j o i n t f i l i n g of such a motion f o r a r e s t r a i n i n g order.
This was done.
P e t i t i o n e r a l s o asked f o r a court i n v e s t i g a t i o n of the case. G l o r i a Busch of
the Domestic Relations Department of the Superior Court was appointed not only to
i n v e s t i g a t e but to enforce the r e s t r a i n i n g order. This she refused to do, giving
as her reason that she saw nothing wrong with homosexuality or the c h i l d r e n being
with homosexuals.
P e t i t i o n e r then, a f t e r securing a v i s i t with his c h i l d r e n , took them i n t o
p r o t e c t i v e custody and placed them In a licensed f o s t e r home, 1739 Brigdon Road,
Pasadena, C a l i f o r n j a , . with Mrs. Cal Watts, who had been recommended by the Pasadena
M i n i s t e r i a l A s s o c i a t i o n . He also e n r o l l e d the c h i l d r e n in a nursery school.
The Santa Monica Superior Court, Judge Brand p r e s i d i n g , refused to issue an
order to the lesbians to return the c h i l d r e n ' s c l o t h i n g and toys. He also refused
to issue an order to the lesbians to surrender the p e t i t i o n e r ' s c l o t h i n g and personal e f f e c t s . The c h i l d r e n were bought new c l o t h i n g and toys by t h e i r f a t h e r , the
petitioner.
Judge Brand took over as Juvenile Court judge on a report made by Mrs. Busch
that was f a l s e and contained perjury by Mrs. Busch. Attorney Mosk consented to the
c h i l d r e n being made wards of the Juvenile Court under p r o t e s t and against the w i l l
of the p e t i t i o n e r , the father of the c h i l d r e n .
During the search f o r the c h i l d r e n , p e t i t i o n e r i n going to homosexual pervert
bars seeking the whereabouts of his c h i l d r e n , was t o l d by Jack Fox, operator of the
notorious lesbian b a r . The Roost, at Pico and Bundy, Los Angeles, that he (Fox) had
helped to f i n d a place to hide the c h i l d r e n . He further boasted i n f r o n t of w i t nesses that the organized homosexual bars i n Los Angeles County, estimated at about
80, had a ' s l u s h fund' which provided not only attorneys f o r homosexuals i n any
t r o u b l e , but a l s o contributions to candidates to p u b l i c o f f i c e who were favorable to
them. Fox also stated they were f i n a n c i a l l y supporting ' P a t ' Brown and ' S t a n ' Mosk
i n t h e i r e l e c t i o n campaigns f o r governor and attorney general. Jack Fox warned pe*
t i t i o n e r that i f he wanted to see his c h i l d r e n again he b e t t e r not seek i n v e s t i g a t i o n
or press f o r hearings.

Judge Brand refused petitioner's request for an investigation of the case by

the Los Angeles County Grand Jury. He also told petitioner he would not allow any of
the officers of the court to be investigated.
Petitioner was cited for t r i a l for alleged illegal seizure of his children;
t r i a l was set for October 31, 1958.
Meanwhile, petitioner had gone to 633 Flower Street, Venice, California, and
learned from neighbors that his children had lived in squalor, hovel conditiions and
had gone hungry with neighbors giving them food; that the mother and her lesbian
lover lived elsewhere and had made several v i s i t s ; told of their vulgarity and obscenity in those v i s i t s , the neglect and abuse of his children, and that neighbors
had complained to the owner of 633 Flower Street, Mrs. Lee Sherman, that unless the
children were removed they would complain to the police.
Petitioner issued subpoena to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Burke, who lived in a cottage in front of the shack at 533 Flower Street, Venice, and to Mrs. Sherman to
appear and to testify at the October 31, 1958 t r i a l of petitioner for alleged i l l e gal seizure of his children.
Before petitioner got to the court of Judge Brand in the Santa Monica Superior Court, his witnesses had been dismissed and the t r i a l was cancelled. Thus
he was prevented from proving in open court that SMD 17743 was a fraudulent document;
that he had acted in the best interests of his children, and that the court had no
jurisdiction.
It was then that petitioner dismissed Attorney Mosk as counsel for the
children and for himself, when Mosk admitted that organized homosexuals had contributed to election of his brother, Stanley Mosk.
Petitioner had submitted 42 items of evidence, both pictorial and pervert
letters written by homosexuals, including those of the mother, and a letter of a
lesbian's mother pleading with the lesbians not to continue their perversion.activities.
The letters disclosed homosexual inter-state t r a f f i c for immoral purposes, of
recruiting youth into homosexuality and described obscene love-making by those lesbian perverts.
Petitioner was denied the right by Judge Brand to bring into his Juvenile
Court chambers witnesses against homosexuals. Petitioner defied the Court by
bringing to the chambers N.A. Taminich, a former Array captain, and Miss Julie Brown,
to testify against the homosexuals and of the minor children being taken to homosexual pervert bars: The Paradise Club, the If Club and The Roost.
Miss Brown, before she and Mr. Taminish were ordered out of Judge brand's
chambers, insisted on telling how the mother of the children attempted to recruit
her into nomosexuality, and of Sandra being taken to the pervert If Club bar.
Mr. Taminich later signed a documented statement of his being 'brow-beaten'
by Judge Brand and not being allowed to testify as to what he knew.
Petitioner has cited but a few instances of what occurred. Judge Brand and
Judge Rhodes favored homosexuals, protected them, concealed and suppressed evidence
against them. Judge Orlando Rhodes gave a default divorce to the homosexual mother
after Judges Brand and Rhodes told petitioner that i f he did not cause scandal and
stigma on his children by not having a divorce t r i a l , there was no chance of the
mother ever being awarded custody and that custody of the^ children would be given
him.
Santa Monica Probation Officer James Discoe and Juvenile Officer Ron Ortman had not only investigated the homosexuals but verified i t , as well as p e t i tioner's love and devotion to his children and his taking proper care of them.
Probation Officer Discoe had recommended custody be given to petitioner.
He had also recommended that the children not be removed from Mrs. Watt's home,
and he had subpoenaed Mrs. Busch to bring into court a report on Helen Schade which
she had concealed and suppressed. At the same time. Officer Discoe issued a subpoena for Helen Schade for perjury, and made a report to the court together with a
doctor's report based on a three-month study of the mother, Charlotte Seeligls i n curable homosexuality. Mr. Discoe requested the court to appoint a doctor to e x amine Sandra Seelig as to her having been sexually molested and abused by the perverts. It was evidenced to the foster mother and the doctor who attended the
children.
Mr. Discoe was then removed from the case, and substituted for him was Mary
Louise Rymal, a friend of Mrs. 6usch, who also favored and espoused the cause of
homosexuality.
On February 10, 1959, Mrs. Rymal with another woman, a Los Angeles County
administration social service worker, seized the children from Mrs. Watt's home
without a court hearing or an order for i t . Mrs. Rwmal's abusiveness caused Mrs.
188

Watts to s u f f e r a heart attack from which she l a t e r d i e d .

Mrs. Watts had preferred charges against both Mrs. Busch and Mrs. Rymal.
Judge Brand refused to give hearing to those charges.
Mrs. Rymal placed the c h i l d r e n in the home of a Mrs. H o l t z , wife of a
Pomona, C a l i f o r n i a professor, who had one adopted c h i l d and wanted to adopt two
more c h i l d r e n .
Probation O f f i c e r Discoe gave p e t i t i o n e r Mrs. H o l t z ' s address and t o l d him
to make a d i r e c t appointment with Mrs. Holtz to see his c h i l d r e n .
In a phone conversation, Mrs. Holtz t o l d p e t i t i o n e r that Mrs. Rymal had i n formed her that the father was a homosexual and was not to see his c h i l d r e n . She
l a t e r phoned p e t i t i o n e r and t o l d him the c h i l d r e n had again been seized by Mrs.
Rymal and taken to Juvenile Hall and separated for the f i r s t time. Mrs. Rymal
l a t e r t o l d p e t i t i o n e r i t was on the order of Judge Brand; he denied i t .
On February 26, 1959, Judge Brand made a court entry order f o r seizure of the
c h i l d r e n from Mrs. Watt's home. I t covered up f o r Mrs. Rymal's i l l e g a l seizure of
the c h i l d r e n on February 10th.
Throughout his month-long, day and night search f o r his c h i l d r e n , p e t i t i o n e r
had been threatened by homosexuals and had been t o l d he would be imprisoned as i n sane i f he continued his f i g h t for his c h i l d r e n and for pressing f o r i n v e s t i g a t i o n
and hearings on the homosexual influence and power in government agencies and in
the s t a t e c o u r t s .
R e s t r i c t i o n s against the mother were dropped, also the orders p r o h i b i t i n g
Helen Schade from a s s o c i a t i o n or contact with the c h i l d r e n were removed.
A p e t i t i o n in the Juvenile Court of the Superior Court dated as f i l e d December 8, 1961, in pertinent p a r t , d i s c l o s e s :
The f o l l o w i n g grounds on change of circumstances and new evidence now
exists:
The mother of the above captioned dependent c h i l d r e n has, under the superv i s i o n of the Probation Department, e s t a b l i s h e d a home for s a i d c h i l d r e n
at 2659 Benbury P l a c e , Los Angeles 65, C a l i f o r n i a . The s a i d home as made
with Helen Schade i s a s a t i s f a c t o r y one, and the c h i l d r e n are progressing
s a t i s f a c t o r i l y . That in the opinion of the undersigned, a s u f f i c i e n t l y
s a t i s f a c t o r y adjustment has been made so that supervision should be t e r minated, and the P e t i t i o n making the s a i d c h i l d r e n wards of the Juvenile
Court should be d i s m i s s e d . '
P e t i t i o n e r Frederick S e e l i g did not learn of t h i s u n t i l May 1, 1962 when a
r e g i s t e r e d l e t t e r with the above mentioned document was delivered to him at t h i s
prison by e r r o r . He was not supposed to receive any news regarding his c h i l d r e n or
of the custody hearing.
On r e c e i p t of the document, p e t i t i o n e r responded the same day with an answer
to the Juvenile Court p r o t e s t i n g and c i t i n g reasons why the p e t i t i o n should not
only be rejected but the c h i l d r e n should be taken i n t o p r o t e c t i v e custody from the
mother and Helen Schade. A hearing had been set f o r May 4, 1962 on that custody
petition.
On or about May 6, 1962, he received a copy of an order issued by the court
at the May 4th hearing:
'THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED AND ADJUDGED THAT: ... MINORS' PHYSICAL CUSTODY
HAVING BEEN RESTORED TO THE MOTHER BY ORDER OF JUNE 6, 1961, MINOR SHALL
RESIDE UNDER COURT SUPERVISION IN THE HOME OF THE MOTHER AT 2695 BANBURY
PLACE, LOS ANGELES 65, CALIFORNIA, pending FURTHER ORDER OF THE COURT.
HATTER IS CONTINUED TO THE NON-APPEARANCE CALENDER OF JULY 6, 1962, FOR
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION REGARDING THE NEED FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION.'
The order i s deceptive. I t permits the c h i l d r e n to remain not only with the
immoral mother but a l s o with her lesbian l o v e r , Helen Schade, i n her home, 2695 Banbury Place.
This i s the same Helen Schade about whom testimony had been given in that
Juvenile Courtthat she had been witnessed i n r e p u l s i v e and obscene homosexual,
s o - c a l l e d love-making with the mother, who was, using layman's terms, 'going down
on Helen Schade," with both nude in bed and the mother's head between the legs of
Helen Schade, with Sandra, the minor c h i l d , watching.
Pervert l e t t e r s in the handwriting of the mother, among the evidence items
i n the J u v e n i l e Court, t o l d of her s i m i l a r obscene love-making with other l e s b i a n s .
Despite t h i s , and the other evidence of s i m i l a r nature, the Juvenile Court
gave custody to the pervert mother and her lesbian l o v e r . P e t i t i o n e r charges the
Court c r i m i n a l l y and knowingly exposed the c h i l d r e n to perversion environment and
rearing in homosexuality.
189

The Los Angeles County Probation department has been criminal not only in
being accessories but in espousing the cause of homosexuality and advocating i n troduction of c h i l d r e n to homosexuality.
When the c h i l d r e n were taken to Los Angeles County Juvenile Hall f o r monthly
v i s i t s with the mother, under supposedly r i g i d s u p e r v i s i o n , homosexual perverts
were allowed to enter with her to see the c h i l d r e n , anci p e t i t i o n e r brought charges
on i t . The v i s i t i n g card records were then destroyed and the Juvenile Court
'whitewashed' i t by c l o s i n g the case.
Karl Holton, however, admitted i t had occurred in a l e t t e r to a B a l t i m o r e ,
Maryland attorney and s a i d in that l e t t e r the s i t u a t i o n had been c o r r e c t e d .
Bessie Bolen, with whom the c h i l d r e n were l e f t in the shack at 633 Flower
S t r e e t , Venice, a f t e r she had been picked up by p o l i c e at 339-B Brooks S t r e e t ,
Venice, C a l i f o r n i a , t o l d p o l i c e of w i l d sex p a r t i e s in the presence of the c h i l d r e n
at a l e s b i a n ' s home where they were taken the night of August 26, 1958, u n t i l she
and the c h i l d r e n were removed to the shack on September 1, 1958.
The Juvenile Court refused to allow testimony on I t or f o r the pervert
mother or her lesbian lover to t e s t i f y on that week.
P e t i t i o n e r learned that the Bolen g i r l had been taken to Juvenile H a l l .
When he attempted to get a statement from her, a f t e r the D i s t r i c t Attorney's o f f i c e
and Juvenile o f f i c e r s refused to do so, she was shipped out of the s t a t e of C a l i fornia.
P e t i t i o n e r , however, l a t e r obtained l e t t e r s from the Bolen g i r l ' which d i s closed the maltreatment of the c h i l d r e n . Those l e t t e r s were among the evidence and
f i l e s confiscated by J u s t i c e Department representatives at A m a r i l l o , Texas.
P e t i t i o n e r requests photostats and photocopies of l e t t e r s and p i c t u r e s in the
f i l e s of the Los Angeles County Probation Department, the D i s t r i c t A t t o r n e y ' s o f f i c e
and the United States Attorney's o f f i c e be subpoenaed in behalf of his c h i l d r e n .
P e t i t i o n e r has a few photocopies of evidence items overlooked i n the c o n f i s cation of h i s property in t h i s prison but he Is not allowed to submit them as e v i dence i n behalf of the c h i l d r e n because i t would lead to an i n v e s t i g a t i o n of Fede r a l agencies covering up the influence and power of homosexuals in government as
well as the c o u r t s ; how he was ' r a i l r o a d e d ' with rlqaed proceedings i n t o t h i s p r i son so that no t r i a l could be held f o r alleged l i b e l and what a t r i a l would d i s close.
P e t i t i o n e r prays that the court w i l l issue an i n j u n c t i o n against f u r t h e r proceedings, e s p e c i a l l y that of J u l y 6, 1962.
He prays that the Appellate Court or the Supreme Court w i l l remove the minor
c h i l d r e n from the j u r i s d i c t i o n of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County and from

of p e t i t i o n e r ' s charges.
The attorney f o r the homosexuals, Charles Morrison, had boasted i n the corr i d o r of Juvenile Court in Santa Monica: ' W e ' l l get our own p s y c h i a t r i s t to adjudge
the mother cured a f t e r we get r i d of the f a t h e r . '
P e t i t i o n e r has not been allowed knowledge of the whereabouts of his c h i l d r e n
by the Juvenile Court of Santa Monica since February 10, 1959. He believed h i s
c h i l d r e n were being protected from homosexuality.
P e t i t i o n e r requests his c h i l d r e n be t o l d that t h e i r f a t h e r has never ceased
his love f o r or devotion to them.
He f u r t h e r s t a t e s that three times he has had proper homes f o r h i s c h i l d r e n
and was f i n a n c i a l l y able to more than adequately care f o r them, but that preference was given to the homosexual mother and to her lesbian f r i e n d s .
P e t i t i o n e r prays that the court w i l l appoint a competent attorney to represent the c h i l d r e n and that the attorney w i l l be i n s t r u c t e d to correspond with pet i t i o n e r who w i l l d i s c l o s e to him where duplicate photocopies of evidence can be
obtained, the names of witnesses i n behalf of his c h i l d r e n and evidence on the
homosexual a c t i v i t i e s nationwide.

Board of Governors of the C a l i f o r n i a State Bar gave warning of homosexual attorneys
representing t h e i r l i k e in courts and of the unethical and unlawful p r a c t i c e s i n Los
Angeles Superior Courts.
P e t i t i o n e r also states under oath that a f t e r c a n c e l l a t i o n of his t r i a l f o r

TIGHT SHOE TORTURE OF LEGS DOCUMENTED

A documented a f f i d a v i t , dated August 21, 1961, to the San Francisco U.S.
Court of Appeals, supporting an appeal, docketed No. 1194, t e l l s of being compelled
to wear t i g h t shoes that lamed the l e g s , the p s y c h i a t r i c maltreatment and being r e fused knowledge of my daughter and son's whereabouts:
"Refusal of medication f o r my l e f t f o o t , a condition brought about with
issuance of improper shoes, causes intense pain and has a f f e c t e d tne nerves of both
legs, and makes walking a t o r t u r e .
"Prison o f f i c i a l s admitted to me the refusal i s r e t a l i a t o r y f o r the d i s closures I have made i n a f f i d a v i t s and notarized l e t t e r s on the inhuman conditions
which p r e v a i l at t h i s p r i s o n .
"I am also denied a l l knowledge of the whereabouts of my two c h i l d r e n and
t h e i r w e l l - b e i n g . I have had no news of them since l a s t October. I t i s part of the
cruel and malicious psychological t a c t i c s intended to play on emotions and nerves.
" I t i s intended to induce a neurotic condition and to convey a b e l i e f t h a t ,
because of my complaints, I have a 'persecution complex.
"The Court has a record of my case dating back to 1957 and what i t i m p l i cates. I t s t a r t e d with complaints, backed by witnesses and evidence never given a
hearing, on the homosexual i n f l u e n c e and corruption w i t h i n Los Angeles County Government and the Los Angeles County Superior Courts.
"Due process of law was denied and c o n s t i t u t i o n a l r i g h t s were ignored. On
December 2, 1961, I was arrested while on my way back to Los Angeles witf^ evidence a
and documents to press f o r hearings.
The evidence was seized and p a r t i a l l y destroyed
and I was put under t i g h t s e c u r i t y , mistreated i n j a i l s and the ' r a i l r o a d e d ' i n t o a
Government h o s p i t a l on claim I was insane.
I was found sane and competent, released
and sent back f o r t r i a l , and again I was ' r a i l r o a d e d ' but i n the second instance the
J u s t i c e Department hired a Los Angeles County Superior Court p s y c h i a t r i s t , who faked
and f a l s i f i e d a report I was insane and had been f o r at l e a s t f i v e y e a r s , which covers the e n t i r e period of the homosexual case against the Los Angeles County o f f i c i a l s
and c o u r t s .
"Since A p r i l 24, I have been imprisoned at t h i s Federal s o - c a l l e d Medical
Center, supposedly f o r p s y c h i a t r i c treatment, which i n not given but instead reversed
psycho-therapy techniques are a p p l i e d , as some of the a f f i d a v i t s I have submitted to
the court d i s c l o s e .
"The prison p s y c h i a t r i c s t a f f , operating under the Department of J u s t i c e ,
my prosecutor and j a i l o r , and taking orders from the J u s t i c e Department, met with me
f o r approximately 20 minutes and l a t e r I was informed I had been judged 'so mentally
incompetent' I could not go on t r i a l f o r alleged l i b e l .
" I t puts the same ' f r e e z e ' on the case i t has had f o r three years.
I t tags
the complainant and accuser as being insane, and concurs with the testimony of the
only witness heard. Dr. Thomas Gore of the Los Angeles Superior Court who t e s t i f i e d
I have been insane f o r at l e a s t f i v e years a f t e r seeing me once, g i v i n g no t e s t s ,
f o r a short conversation.
"From what I have experienced in the past, I believe the lower court of Los
Angeles w i l l c e r t i f y me as insane and recommend I be kept imprisoned without t r i a l or
witnesses i n my behalf.
" I t also follows i n l i n e with the warning and threat made to me i n the conference room of the U.S. Marshal's o f f i c e i n Los Angeles that unless I pleaded g u i l t y
to slander I'd be adjudged insane and kept i n mental i n s t i t u t i o n s the r e s t of my l i f e ;
that no t r i a l would ever be held or witnesses i n my behalf heard.
"Meanwhile, I am subjected to the c r u e l e s t forms of psychological pressure
i n b e l i e f that e v e n t u a l l y I w i l l 'crack up.'
I again beg of the court to appoint legal counsel to represent me and to expedite my case,"
