is the last available record of a George Scherff, Sr. or Jr. What ever happened to this father and son who shared the same name and frequented the most advanced laboratory in the world? Teslas other close friends were quite vocal in their remembrance of the inventor, especially Kenneth Sweezey, and yet the world was deprived of the key insider perspective of Teslas closest clerical assistant. Why? Only one photograph in public circulation records the face of George Scherff, Sr. at the Association of Radio Engineers banquet of 1915 (above). Tesla is seen standing tallest in the middle of the back row, while Scherff stands at the end of the same row to Teslas left, his hands visible at his sides. This rare image of George Scherff is shown in detail (opposite page, upper left) for comparison with two other photographs taken in the years 1937 and 1952. A close friend of the Scherff family provided the 1937 image, while the 1952 photograph was promotional material produced for the political campaign of Prescott Sheldon Bush for Senator of Connecticut. Distinct facial similarities can be easily identified in the comparative photographs of George Scherff and Prescott Bush. Among the many strong characteristics of Scherffs face are his unusually high hairline, down-sweeping eyebrows and asymmetrical upper-lip. The height and build of George Scherff and Prescott Bush are also identical, while even their signatures show remarkable similarities. Presented for comparison with a 1918 letter from George Scherff8 to Nikola Tesla is the 1954 autograph of Prescott Bush9 (opposite). Both the handwriting and the abbreviation of the first names Geo for George and Pres for Prescott are identical. Was Scherff an agent leading a double life using the alias Prescott Sheldon Bush? Significant evidence suggests that George Scherff (original German spelling: Scherf) was an illegal German immigrant in America working part-time for both the Nikola Tesla Company and as auditor for the Union Sulfur Company. Union Sulfur occupied a warehouse in a Rockefeller-owned building operating as part of the Freemasons secretive umbrella of influential companies in industry and finance with the ability to place agents and provide cover for their corporate espionage activities. The earliest corporate records of Prescott Bush appear to be from 1924, when he was installed by George Herbert Walker as one of seven founding directors of the Union Banking Corporation. Could it be that Walker

selected a rookie son-in-law to manage his new bank? It is more likely that the UBC position was awarded to corporate espionage agent George Scherf as a cover to establish his new elite alias and a reward for his successful spy work in the laboratories of Nikola Tesla. This hypothesis is well supported by the complete absence of any record of the lives of George Scherff, Sr. or George Jr. after 1954, as well as the absence of any record or photographs of Prescott Bush before 1924. The information age reveals all:
More tantalising are [Prescott] Bush's links to the Consolidated Silesian Steel Company (CSSC), based in mineral rich Silesia on the German-Polish border. During the war, the company made use of Nazi slave labour from the concentration camps, including Auschwitz [O]n October the Alien Property Custodian seized the assets of the UBC, of which Prescott Bush was a director. Having gone through the books of the bank, further seizures were made against two affiliates, the Holland-American Trading Corporation and the Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation. By November, the Silesian-American Company, another of Prescott Bush's ventures, had also been seized A report issued by the Office of Alien Property Custodian (APC) in 1942 stated of the companies that "since 1939, these (steel and mining) properties have been in possession of and have been operated by the German government and have undoubtedly been of considerable assistance to that country's war effort" In 1924, his father-in-law, a well-known St Louis investment banker, helped set him up in business in New York with Averill Harriman, the wealthy son of railroad magnate E H Harriman in New York, who had gone into banking. One of the first jobs Walker gave Bush was to manage UBC. Bush was a founding member of the bank and the incorporation documents, which list him as one of seven directors, show he owned one share in UBC worth $125 Homer Jones, the chief of the APC investigation and research division sent a memo to the executive committee of APC recommending the US government vest UBC and its assets. Jones named the directors of the bank in the memo, including Prescott Bush's name, and wrote: "Said stock is held by the above named individuals, however, solely as nominees for the Bank voor Handel, Rotterdam, Holland, which is owned by one or more of the Thyssen family, nationals of Germany and Hungary. The 4,000 shares hereinbefore set out are therefore beneficially owned and help for the interests of enemy nationals, and are vestible by the APC," according to the memo from the National Archives Jones recommended that the assets be liquidated for the benefit of the government, but instead UBC was maintained intact and eventually returned to the American shareholders after the war. Some claim that Bush sold his share in UBC after the war for $1.5m - a huge amount of money at the time - but there is no documentary evidence to support this claim. No further action was ever taken nor was the investigation continued, despite the fact UBC was caught red-handed operating an American shell company for the Thyssen family eight months after America had entered the war and that this was the bank that had partly 10 financed Hitler's rise to power.

In a comprehensive deathbed confession, Otto Skorzeny (below, left), the personal bodyguard of Adolf Hitler gave a detailed account of his life-story to Erik Monty Berman13 in 1997, who was at that time dating Ottos daughter, named Lori F. Pyzyna. Otto Skorzeny conversed with Erik on three occasions for about five hours concerning his entire career as a Nazi special commando and subsequent CIA agent in America. Skorzeny and his family resided at 638 Fourth Avenue in Boynton Beach, Florida, using the CIA-orchestrated cover alias Edward Frank Pyzyna, a retired carpenter living with his wife Frances P. Pyzyna and their children. Erik Bermans Jewish heritage may have contributed to his eagerness to record and publish the shocking true history of the pre-World War II Nazi take-over of America, a fact that may have struck the dying Skorzeny as a golden opportunity to expunge his guilt. Having completed his testimonial and relinquished his extensive photo collection exposing the conspiracy of the century, Otto Skorzeny died without taking any secrets with him on December 31,1999.
Skorzenys testimony is a penetrating insiders view of the Nazi rise to power and their subsequent secret transference to the American Bush aristocracy. Ottos explication of his collection of personal photographs is surely one of the most intriguing tales of espionage ever told. Having been Hitlers personal bodyguard places Otto Skorzeny in the rare category of individuals privileged to have actually witnessed and participated in key events of worldly import whose testimony and extensive photographic evidence must be made known to the world audience and thoroughly considered. We must always remember that the truth is all that exists, and all subterfuge will surely become evident in time, especially those falsehoods so firmly media-implanted into collective memory. Skorzeny provided a stunning series of photographs that expose the lies of history, including one image of himself as a very tall youth posing with fellow Nazi agents George H. Scherf, Jr. and his father, George Scherf, Sr. (above, right). An espionage agents personal photographic collection is a powerful form of evidence for self-defense and security, painstakingly maintained to provide a solid means of blackmail protection by threat of exposure. Skorzenys handing-over of his collection to Erik Berman was an acknowledgement that the photographs value as insurance for his loved-ones would expire with him; that he could find solace in their exposition of the hidden identities and entrapment methods of his partners, who used him in kind.

As one of his final guilt-cleansing actions, Skorzeny chose to disclose his role in forming the CIA with other Nazis exported to the US through Operation Paperclip. Otto alleged that he worked extensively with Reinhard Gehlen and George H. Scherf, Jr. in these efforts. After the May 10, 1945 German surrender, Skorzeny was imprisoned at a Darmstadt POW camp (above). He escaped on July 27, 1948 but was actually released as planned to found first the Office of Strategic Services and later the CIA with the vast majority of Nazi scientists and engineers directly from Germany. What definite signs of this do we see in the US today? The Nazi discovery and use of fluoride in state-controlled water sources to pacify and confuse the public by inducing attention deficit disorder (ADD) is well documented and should certainly raise alarms today as Americans fight against large-scale corporate fluoridation of the nations water supply. Fluoride has been shown to accumulate in the pineal gland at the core of the human brain, 14 where it throws off the resonant functioning of calcite microcrystals that synchronize hemispheric interaction in the brain,15 resulting in thought fragmentation. An FDA scam to promote a neurotoxin as a beneficial dental hygiene additive? Artificial sweeteners like Aspartame can kill? Yes. The disinformation machine of the American media today follows precisely Hitlers philosophy of deceit: the size of the lie is a definite factor in causing it to be believed, because the vast masses of a nation would never credit others with the possibility of such great impudence as the complete reversal of facts Something therefore always remains and sticks from the most imprudent of lies, a fact which all bodies and individuals concerned in the art of lying in this world know only too well, and therefore they stop at nothing to achieve this end." 16 Facts have been reversed just as the Nazi swastika has been given the meaning death by reversing the ancient Sanskrit symbol for wellness. The Sanskrit swastika is usually formed counterclockwise. Just as darkness is defined by the absence of light, so must death symbolize itself as the inversion of life force. The Nazi weaponization of Teslas brilliance is another such inversion that has been exposed by the very man who confessed to his murder.
As deeply penetrating as these disturbing allegations may be, Skorzenys extensive personal photo collection very clearly documents the gatherings of his espionage ring. The recounted details and corroborative research provided by Erik Berman are quite convincing and well supported by the investigative work of Don Nicoloff.17 According to Otto Skorzeny, Nikola Teslas assistant George Scherf robbed Tesla blind and was the last person reported to have visited Tesla only four days before the discovery of Teslas vacant body in his New Yorker Hotel room on the morning of January 8, 1943. In a soul-cleansing disclosure, Skorzeny retold how he and Reinhard Gehlen paid Tesla several visits in his final days and spoke in great detail to Tesla about his most advanced technologies and then stole the blueprints of his best and most secret inventions. Going even further, Skorzeny reported the details of how he and accomplice Reinhard Gehlen suffocated Nikola Tesla on January 6, 1943. Dustin Wallace corroborates the statements of Skorzeny regarding Teslas last days in a recent biographical piece:

In 1938, Hitler initiated long-term plans for sending young SS Nazi spies to America through the Hamburg-Amerika ship line supervised by George H. Scherf, Sr., who had in previous years been working simultaneously as financial handler of Nikola Tesla and for the Rockefeller-owned Union Sulfur Company. Hitlers deceptive planning involved key American industrialists at every stage to insure the effectiveness of the Scherf/ Bush double-identity facade by entrenching a corrupt network of highranking US government officials. Photographs of the Bush family prior to World War II are rarely available to the public; one of the earliest is presented below, the group posing on arrival at the Midland, Texas airstrip in 1950.
From left to right are mother Barbara Pierce Bush, son George Walker Bush, father George Herbert Walker Bush, grandmother Dorothy Walker Bush and grandfather Prescott Sheldon Bush. By embedding themselves among the dynastic American industrialist families of Samuel P. Bush and George Herbert Walker, the Scherf family effectively enshrouded themselves in American mythology while all extant records of their existence had been completely expunged in Hitlers Germany. The careful manipulation of public records and well-orchestrated propaganda including publishing myriad false-histories would be required to effectively infiltrate the power positions of the US government, yet census records for the Bush family show inconsistencies that belie false identities and birth information. Otto Skorzeny revealed that three American Nazis founded the Internal Revenue Service in 1933 as a private Delaware corporation for Nazi military fundraising. Skorzeny contended that the vast amounts of American tax revenues generated by the IRS went directly into generating the Nazi war build-up from its very inception. The bagman who took the money to Germany was George H. Scherf, Sr. alias Prescott Bush, CEO of Brown Brothers Harriman. The IRS is not part of the Bureau of Internal Revenue paying income tax to the IRS is not mandatory but voluntary and based on the threat of an audit and financial investigations. Being the frontman for the primary covert finance operation of the Nazi regime, George Scherf, Sr. was indeed the most valuable secret asset of the Third Reich who would work diligently for his entire life to bring about the rise of the Fourth Reich in America.
Skorzeny presented his copy of this remarkable color print (enhanced below), a large group photo of Hitlers elite youth espionage ring at the Scherf family home around 1938, pointing himself out at the far right. He also pointed out other Nazi agents posing, including Reinhard Gehlen (front), Joseph Mengele (back) and, in German Naval uniform, Martin Bormann (far left) and George H. Scherf, Jr. (center). To the right of Scherf Jr. sits Walther Rauff and in front of him is Dorothy Walker Bush, wife of George H. Scherf, Sr. (alias Prescott Bush). Scherf Sr. himself may have taken this photograph of his family and friends at their Dlitzsch, Germany home with his wife, son, and mother (at left, holding Bormanns hand) all of the males being close-knit young espionage group members.

their brains were debilitated by radiation. Most of those sailors survived with minor brain damage and spent a long time in the Philadelphia Naval Yards Psychiatric Hospital. If the sailors ever remembered what had happened to them during the experiment their allegations were immediately dismissed as crazy talk. The US Navy used fear and intimidation to silence the witnesses and unwitting participants of the experiments by threat of cancelled pensions, treason indictments and ultimately death. 2 During 1942, Hitler desperately wanted to rule the world. He ordered George H. Scherf, Jr. (aka George H.W. Bush) to wiretap Teslas phone to find out about what other magnificent inventions he was creating that could aid in his global conquest. Bush eavesdropped on several negotiations between Tesla and the Navy regarding his supervision of a second experiment aboard the USS Eldridge. After several refusals from Tesla, the Navy contacted Albert Einstein, Marconi, Townsend Brown, Dr. John G. Trump and a few less-known scientists to attempt another invisibility experiment. Einstein flatly announced to the entire group: Nikola Teslas theories of magnetic resonance and optical invisibility are beyond my grasp. Skorzeny and Gehlen were informed by Scherf Jr. of the location of the next invisibility experiment and were able to orchestrate more help from Nazi-sympathizers in the US Navy. Pretending to be scientists Dr. Reinhard and Dr. Franklin Reno, the two men easily bluffed their way into the Philadelphia Naval Yard and the USS Eldridge. Gehlen and Skorzeny would try to steal the main electronic component of the experiment, Teslas Rotating Field Amplifiers. The RFAs were small black steel boxes with ventilation holes that weighed about fifty pounds each. Several high-frequency generators were daisy-chained together to the RFA, which amplified the electrical currents to extremely high voltages. These RFAs had to be connected and tuned to a certain resonant frequency that only Tesla knew. The US Navy still had Teslas equipment, but this time they were forced to work without Teslas knowledgeable supervision and fine-tuning of the rotating EM fields to the correct frequency for the experiment to be conducted effectively and safely.
The Second Invisibility Experiment of the USS Eldridge All of the equipment was reinstalled on the Eldridge, while the RFA was instead connected to the ship by a long extension cord from the dock. There were two other RFAs standing by just incase the first one failed. The Eldridge did not leave port to conduct the experiment this time, and because Tesla would not supervise a second experiment nor fine-tune the generators the experiment did not go as planned. The other scientists could not figure out how to properly hook up all of the generators nor could they figure out how to connect and fine-tune the RFA. They rigged it all together haphazardly and threw the power switch. Nothing happened. They turned up the power on the generators and still nothing happened. Eventually, the scientists reconnected the wires in a different way. Finally, something did happen! The ship started to glow green a little bit and then yellow and finally it appeared to be vanishing in a giant heat mirage right before everyones eyes. However, it did not vanish completely this time as it had done during the first experiment. Dr. Trump allegedly yelled at Einstein and the other scientists to make his ship invisible! The scientists decided to turn up the generators to full capacity to see what would happen.

Because the foolish American government had forsaken Tesla, no one was there to protect and watch over him. Dr. Tesla had unknowingly given his best and greatest inventions to two SS Nazi agents who had been pretending to be American OSS officials. The two Nazis were none other than Otto Skorzeny and Reinhard Gehlen. By murdering Tesla and stealing his greatest inventions Nazi-Germany just unofficially won World War II Allegedly, Hitler had ordered the cowardly, prudent George H.W. Bush to steal Teslas inventions and to kill him! George was too much of a pussy to do it, so Skorzeny and Gehlen had to kill him instead! Tesla was hit by a taxicab a few years earlier in 1938, allegedly driven by George H.W. Bush. The pre-meditated car accident injured Tesla, but did not kill him. After Skorzeny smothered Tesla, he and Gehlen broke into Teslas safes and stole his Last Will and Testament, Edison Medal of Honor, his Westinghouse Contract worth trillions today, an Earthquake machine patent model, an antigravitic flying disc patent model, a turbine, a water engine, another engine that needed no oil or gas, free-energy devices, perpetual motion devices, a Death Ray, electronic invisibility devices, mind control devices, and hundreds of love letters from Teslas rich, aristocratic lady-friends, most of whom were married to famous men at the time. Skorzeny claims this stolen private collection included several love letters written to Tesla from Barbara Pierce (Bush).
According to Skorzeny, Teslas Last Will and Testament, Edison Medal and his Westinghouse Contract are all kept in the Skull and Bones lucky sperm club member clubhouse located at Yale (above, right) right next to Geronimos skull. Prescott Bush grave-robbed the skull from a sacred Apache burial ground for rituals. This clandestine meeting place for rich WASP, New World Order Republican recruitment rituals is called the tomb for allegedly housing various stolen human bones, a coffin and a wax dummy of Hitler wearing black leather Nazi SS Gestapo boots, giving the Nazi salute with one hand and holding a gas can in the other. Allegedly, every year each new rich, WASP New World Order Republican recruit is hazed made to strip naked and lie in a cash-filled coffin engraved with the Jewish Star of David. Motor oil is poured on top of them [and they are forced, one after another, to perform autoerotic rituals]6 This psychopathic behavior is a political type of reverse-Christian baptism designed to entrap the participants into the network of coercion, extortion and blackmail. Teslas Body Is Discovered. The Government Cover-Up Begins On January 7, 1943 a real friend of Teslas stopped by to see how he was doing. His hotel bedroom door was ajar, which seemed odd. He went into Teslas bedroom and found him lying on his bed with his pants down to his knees, with his shoes still on, dead. After suffocating Tesla, Skorzeny claimed that he pulled Teslas pants down to see if the rumors about his penis-size were true. He claims that the rumors about Teslas large penis were indeed true! All of Teslas belongings had been ransacked and pillaged. His windows were open and his safes were almost empty. His pigeons were flying around the

Secret Underground Nazi Base in Glacier National Park, Montana Hidden high atop the mountainside along Going-to-the-Sun Road at more than 6,600 is the secret tunnel entrance to an extensive underground Nazi/CIA facility (48.7474N 113.7633W). In the above satellite image, the larger circle denotes the hidden rock faade entrance and the smaller circle denotes the position of camouflaged guards. The secret tunnel descends more than two miles to a giant hollowed-out industrial complex below the mountain. This huge underground city/base connects Montana to Canada just north of the national border at the (cleverly named) International Peace Park. This underground base is where the CIA keeps its stolen Holocaust trillions and tests its most secret New World Order black projects including Teslas flying disc, optically invisible aircraft and other stolen Tesla technologies. 10 Operations at the base include maintenance and deployment of stealth drones.
Glacier National Park was the first national park to have railroad access at the time a necessity for all large-scale underground military-industrial construction. This enabled the CIAs New World Order Nazis to transport the rumored Nazi-gold train of stolen holocaust loot from Montauk, NY to the secret base located inside the mountain. On the promontory above the secret tunnel entrance there is a strange looking outcropping of rocks that at certain times of the day looks like a grizzly bear, hence the name Grizzly Peak. The CIA uses this secret tunnel route to illegally smuggle drugs, guns, SS Nazi war criminals and dignitaries into Canada without stopping at any border crossings.11 Because the archived surrender agreement of Nazi Germany has been forged, Canada has been hiding and supporting CIA Nazis just like America has been. Canada aligned itself with England, France and Italy in forming a secret fascist agreement with Hitlers Nazi Germany, the results of which can be clearly seen in their unified front of complete denial of the existence of extraterrestrials and spacecraft debris found.
The secret tunnel entrance to the CIAs New World Order underground base is hidden behind a remote-controlled, movable rock-wall located in the side of the mountain on Going-to-the-Sun Road, shown in Skorzenys photograph above, just north of Grizzly Peak and the Weeping Wall. In the far background the Garden Wall can be seen, and at far right is the base of Haystack Butte. The tunnel entrance (shadowed overhang circled, bottom right) was cut out of the bedrock by precision laser to prevent any possible discovery. When the base is active during the summer months, there are armed and camouflaged guards hiding on the mountainside (upper left corner) surrounding the secret tunnel entrance. The Nazi New World Order keeps its stolen holocaust trillions and stolen Tesla technology secretly hidden inside this hollowed-out mountain facility, providing access only to the New World Order elite who have shared in the mass murder for profit war scams.

elevator inside the mountain that brings the planes up to a full-size hidden runway inside the mountain. During the night, when Going-to-the-Sun Road is closed, a large camouflaged section of the mountain is briefly opened for aircraft to exit the facility. Once the plane has left the mountain base, the secret runway bay doors are closed. Otto Skorzeny presented the photograph below, taken on August 27, 1997, describing the hidden stealth technologies active around Glacier Parks Lake McDonald. Skorzeny pointed out the flat, squared rock as being a hidden flat-panel radar array (circled), one feature among several secret installations enabling covert surveillance of the sensitive airspace.
He also asserted that the disc-shaped cloud (upper left) is actually a plasma-cloaked stealth disc aircraft silently hovering above the CIA boat. Photos of cloud-enveloped discs are well known in UFO circles. The US government claims that SR-71 Blackbirds in hangers are wet because they expand and shrink while flying thereby causing condensation build-up. That line is disinformation stealth planes spray mists of water on themselves while flying to create the illusion of optical invisibility by interaction with the electrified aircraft shell. Water vapor is used by stealth planes to disguise the aircraft in a whitecolored artificial cloud that, when ignited, forms a plasma mirage envelope for complete optical cloaking. To use the words of Otto Skorzeny, the stealth planes are like flying ozone-generators. This advanced application of HHO plasmas derived from water allows the planes to be lowered through the waters of Lake McDonald or other lakes around the US to secret underwater/underground CIA facilities. The extensive network of Death Ray satellites in far Earth orbit are not only capable of destroying aerial or space-based targets and sending power to levitating spy planes, but can manipulate weather and world events in myriad ways. The Death Ray satellites, part of President Reagans publicized Star Wars Program, are precisely coordinated with the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program
(HAARP) antenna array located in Alaska for weather manipulation and mind control. When these lasers simultaneously aim their beams to a single point on Earth, the targeted area will then experience extremely severe weather in the form of droughts, hurricanes, tornados or Earthquakes. Spontaneous Human Combustion (SHC) occurs when these lasers are focused on the human body. HAARP is a major Arctic facility for upper atmospheric and solar-terrestrial research built at a Department of Defense-owned site near Gakona, Alaska. Principal instruments include a high power, high-frequency phased-array radio transmitter known as the Ionospheric Research Instrument (IRI), used to stimulate small, well-defined volumes of ionosphere. HAARP also employs an ultra-high frequency Incoherent Scatter Radar (ISR), used to measure electron densities and ion temperatures, and Doppler velocities in the stimulated region and in the natural ionosphere. To further the scientific capabilities and usefulness of the IRI and ISR, HAARP is supporting the design and installation of the latest in modern geophysical research instruments, including an HF ionosonde, ELF and VLF receivers, magnetometers, riometers, LIDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) and optical and infrared spectrometers. As early as 1901, Tesla had been granted several patents for these same auroral stimulation technologies. In 1983, New World Order Reagan-appointed US Patent Examiners were bribed. Disregarding Teslas prior patents, the Examiners illegally reissued the patent to the Eastman Corporation for the exact same HAARP technology that Tesla had invented over eighty years prior!

The serial torture and enslavement described by former ACRO employees is exactly corroborated by the accounts of Otto Skorzeny, who himself was one of Hitlers elite youth espionage corps that installed the network of corporate cover positions for Nazi mind control research to be directly continued from where it left off in the Third Reichs death-camps. The regimented use of fear, trauma, electric shock and hypnosis in mind control programming has been institutionalized by men who are themselves victims of horrid abuse, in Adolf Hitlers case by his father Alois.27 Joseph Mengele (at left, with wife and child) was employed for years using the false American alias Steven Rabel, a laboratory technician for CIA front companies including ARCO and W.R. Grace Company. The pervasive network of Nazi CIA torture operations extends well below ground, in literally hundreds of giant subterranean facilities. These various rockhewn complexes house advanced technologies engineered from prototypes stolen from Dr. Nikola Tesla after Skorzeny had taken his life by asphyxiation.

Arrigos ability to determine the ethical balance enables her accuracy in considering all of the possible outcomes, not only the desired set of outcomes. In her explications, Arrigo confirms that the universal laws of physics cannot be altered carelessly, but only through focused, compassionate intent:
Since I was involved in much of that research as a gifted psychokinetic expert and trainer, I feel that it is my responsibility to make sure that radiation abatement is used to help the planet, not as a rescue strategy after a first strike. It is completely immoral and unconscionable to launch nuclear weapons to kill everyone above ground and then reverse the radiation and come out of ones shelter to have all of the oil just for oneself and ones progeny. I can not remain silent given what I know about the US plans, even though they tortured me 14 again last week in Nyon, Switzerland in a makeshift torture chamber in a basement to try to silence me.
Dr. Arrigos insider accounts show the global nuclear threat to have grown from the ignorance and greed of petty old men who fear their own eminent demise and perhaps the impending suffering of their next incarnation, brought upon themselves by orchestrating mass murder for the better part of their adult lives. These are the products of generational cycles of ritualized child torture and entrapment that now govern the US. Indeed, it is a simple problem of psychopathic liars believing their own lies.
A true understanding of the unique physics of water, an abundant fuel, alleviates all of the limitations of oil-based technologies and over-population. Water, and HHO plasma generated from water, can provide for all human needs, as originally discovered and developed by Nikola Tesla, only to be hidden by the Nazis and developed as stealth plasma-cloaking technology. The thorough compartmentalization of the US governments secret scientific projects has blocked many advances in awareness of the potential of HHO plasmas for free energy production and human well being. However, a few independent inventors have reconfirmed Teslas results and engineered free-energy reactors using HHO resonant-transfer plasmas, now being marketed for heating homes by Blacklight Power, Inc.15 Another independent inventor, Denny Klein of Clearwater, Florida, has engineered and marketed an HHO plasma torch16 using the same basic process. Both of these technologies are extremely safe and clean, as HHO plasma is created in a vacuum tube that, if broken, quenches the plasma reaction and releases only water vapor! In addition, HHO plasmas release healthy UVA light, and no UVB or C. The advanced technological achievements of humanity now allow the necessary shift to sustainability that can salvage our polluted planet. The transition from oil-based to water-based fuel brings an opportunity for those abusive controllers of the antiquated systems to redeem themselves by sharing this technology widely. Who among the controlling elite will resign from their mass murdering and redeem themselves by doing so? Dr. Arrigos unique efforts suggest there are many willing to act:

One knows that one is in God's hands and surrenders to that. In some sense it brings greater peace than one's daily life because one has no choices to make --everything is out of one's hands and in the hands of God. Really, that is always true. But I am much more aware of it when I am being tortured. Being tortured does not mean that God has abandoned one. Pain does not mean that. Suffering does not mean that. So, how can one find God's Love and Care in the midst of great pain and suffering? One finds it by inviting it into your heart to give to those who harm you. As long as you do not want them to be free of suffering and have it alleviated completely by God, you cannot get God to completely alleviate your own suffering. But at the moment that one says to God, "Even though I am suffering terribly, please have mercy on these men and relieve their suffering first" then God hears your prayer. You have to be sincere in it. You have to put the welfare of your tormentors before your own welfare this is the one True Path that I have found to deal with suffering and torture. All the saints can tell you that Christ spoke truly and wisely and pointed out a True Path to 24 God's Mercy by saying "Love Thy Enemy as yourself" 73
Sue expresses the essence of compassionate thought and action by projecting, instead of fear, a deep love for the emotionally handicapped who serially hurt themselves and others. Arrigo identifies an insidious sociopathic cycle that must become widely recognized and understood from a scientific perspective. Analysis of neural activity in psychopaths has revealed significant differences from healthy human function, by which psychopaths may be quickly identified. Empathy tests have conclusively demonstrated that emotive response to facial expression is much lower in psychopaths, and that in particular, fear is processed quite differently than in healthy individuals. Both groups had increased activity in brain areas involved in processing facial expressions in response to happy faces compared with neutral faces, but this increase was smaller among the psychopaths. By contrast, when processing fearful faces compared with neutral faces, the healthy volunteers showed increased activation and the psychopaths decreased activation in these brain regions. 25 Psychopaths are unable to process the fear and distress of others.
Arrigos torturous lifetime entanglement within the psychopathic command structure has afforded her several precious opportunities to investigate the system from the inside. Her willful and penetrating investigations from within the Rockefeller Archives and CIA databases reveal a genetic control mechanism that has ensured the spread of psychopathic genes within the global Nazi crime syndicate or as Arrigo refers to it: The Family Business of the Rothschilds, Rockefeller, Hitler, Bush, and Clinton:

Arrigos detailed recollection of her previous insider investigations into the CIA-controlled genetic evidence provides us with essential information that will eventually be corroborated by independent findings. These precise details regarding the distinctive chromosome 12 banding pattern of the global crime family members will be an invaluable resource for the future prosecution of their serial genocides, committed consistently for the more than two centuries since their global banking monopoly was established. While Arrigos contention may not be proven for some years, there is much corroboration for her claims in not only the activities of this sordid group, but even hidden in their own beguiling statements. Former Presidents George and Bill had a little insider fun with the press, joking about their close brotherhood at a high-priced media event in Toronto, Canada held on Friday, May 29, 2009:
Former US President George W. Bush says ex-President William J. Clinton never criticized him as both leaders followed similar policies in their tenures The two leaders rubberstamped each other's policies, agreeing that little differences existed between the two. Bush supported Clinton's silence during the 1994 Rwanda genocide in which over 800,000 thousands Tutsis and moderate Hutus were slaughtered. He backed Clinton's notion by admitting that the quick mobilization of 20,000 troops was not feasible at the time Clinton, for his part, praised Bush for his 'diverse' cabinet picks Tickets for "A conversation with Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton," were sold for C$200 to C$2,500 as hundreds of opposition had staged a rally outside the heavily guarded venue. Commenting on the financial benefits of the forum, Bush said, "President Clinton and I used to believe in free speech. So thanks very much for coming - we are glad you're here." He also called Clinton a 27 'brother' for the amount of time he spent with the Bush family 75
George calling Bill his brother may prove to be one of his few accurate claims. Not only are Clinton and George W. both cult members of the Skull & Bones Brotherhood, they are also both direct descendents of the Rockefellers and the Rothschilds! Playing with the double meaning of words like brother creates a plausible deniability that the global crime family enjoys in public. Another famous insider joke that Bush Jr. often plays with media involves flashing the satanic horns hand sign under the guise of supporting a sports team from Texas. While the intentions behind the hand signals of George W. will remain obscured, the genetic relationship between George and brother Bill will certainly become public knowledge, revealing the perverse truths behind their sick insider jokes. The genetic information retrieved and published by Dr. Arrigo, at great personal risk, will no doubt form the beginning of a more lengthy genetic study of this psychopathic bloodline to its roots in the Ashkenazi ancestral lineage of the Khazars, a Caucasian sect of Jews. 28 One may not find it surprising that the families promoting Aryan eugenics are themselves examples of a genetic line with an inherited neurological deficiency psychopathy who must be removed from decision-making positions in society. The attempt of psychopathic human beings to institutionalize psychopathy in the rest of humanity cannot proceed unchecked. Neurological deficiency resulting in psychopathic behavior has governed humanity for millennia. Technological advances can relieve this disturbing influence on human development. Brain scanning during empathy tests can be applied to uproot psychopathy in human leadership, while scientific investigations of rebirth may also enable the recognition of advanced capabilities among us. Likewise, the teaching of karma and reincarnation can be scientifically applied to recreate our world in that powerful circular awareness, allowing future generations to be free of the psychopathy that has come to dominate world politics and international relations by subversion. Individuals presently entrapped in cycles of slavery and torture may be reborn into a healthy infrasound environment where group telepathy prevents hidden abuse, and the great potential of all reincarnating souls may illuminate the collective human experience. The present shift of the Ages signals the return to the life path that the prime Creator has set out for humanity, with our bare feet in contact with the Earth in conscious awareness of the underlying unity of all Creation. The quantum physics of resonance and the indigenous ancient wisdom now seamlessly inform humanity of the unfolding planetary shift to a four-dimensional resonance currently bleeding through in a pattern of widening focal points that already require evacuation. Piezoelectric firestorms caused by infrasound are destroying all modern metal machinery in resonant focal areas and at high altitudes, proving all nuclear facilities, warhead stockpiles, satellites and space stations to be ill-equipped to handle the surging planetary infrasound levels. The specific and crucial warnings of spiritual scientists and indigenous Elders must be heeded if humanity is to emerge safely from the present threat of global catastrophe. The American people and indeed the whole world must inform themselves of the lethal dangers of high-frequency radiation and the currently available resonant health technologies based on ayurvedic pyramids and the human heartbeat. Water purification and treatment with gold and silver colloids must be put to the immediate use of all of humanity, including both the free energy and curative applications of HHO plasma. The quadratic function [zn+1 = zn2 modulus n] is the universal key to unlimited cosmic energy for the relief of all human suffering.

The U. S. Public Health Service is operating a program for total diet assay of radioactivity directed at a critical age group. Results from this program provide meaningful data, but not in adequate detail for control measures. Work is now under way for more comprehensive measures and data.
SURVEILLANCE FOR RADIOLOGICAL

CONTAMINATION IN FOODS

Ernest C. Anderson, M.S., F.A.P.H.A., and Donald J. Nelson, Jr., M.P.H.
RECENT events have brought sharply to the attention of the public and the public health agencies the critical need for a system by which we may estimate both the total exposure of the population of this country to radiation and the total dose received as a result of this exposure. For the past few years the Public Health Service has been working toward the development of a comprehensive system of radiation surveillance from which such data might be derived. But experience during the past two months and deliberations of expert scientific groups have led to the conclusion that this basic system is not completely adequate for acute situations that might result from large-scale atmospheric weapons testing. However, experience indicates that the program described in the following pages provides a sound foundation from which to expand into a more comprehensive surveillance necessary to pinpoint critical situations and to provide the basis for counter measures when needed. The evaluation of radiation exposure in some instances is fairly straightforward, while in others the practical solutions are not as obvious. Examples of the latter are the difficulty of determining exposure resulting from medical

x-ray practice, and that resulting from total dietary intake. This report covers the total diet sampling program being carried on by the Public Health Service and some of the work being done to develop methods which will yield valid results. It also covers the surveillance activities of the Service which endeavor to ascertain the degree to which human radiation exposure is affected by dietary intake. In addition, it explains the existing nation-wide radiation intelligence networks for the measurement of radioactivity in consumer milk and interstate water, as well as pilot programs for the assessment of radioactivity levels in food. The major effort of the Public Health Service through its Division of Radiological Health is directed in three main channels: (1) the assessment of the population radiation exposure from all sources; (2) the evaluation of the biological effects of radiation to which the population is exposed; and (3) the development of technics and procedures whereby the exposure of the population to radiation from all sources may be eliminated, minimized, or controlled. The total effort is, of course, conducted within the framework of the traditional cooperative relationship between the

In carrying out the above objectives, the Division of Radiological Health, PHS, has initiated an integrated program which is referred to in concept as the Radiation Intelligence Network (RIN), and may be more fully described as an environmental radiation measurement and population exposure estimate network. Its object is to accurately estimate population exposure to ionizing radiation from environmental radioactivity levels by means of a nation-wide sampling and computing
complex. Actually, a wide variety of programs

are in effect within the Public Health Service which regularly contribute valuable scientific information. These will be integrated into the Radiation Intelligence Network operation. Some of the continuing programs can be mentioned briefly to illustrate the scope of the present activities. 1. The Public Health Service Radiation Surveillance Network monitors airborne particulate radiation, the environmental beta radioactivity due to radioactive fallout, and radioactivity in rain. It consists of 45 basic stations operated by state and local health personnel at urban localities operating on a roundthe-year basis. This alert system is now expanded to a total of over 60 stations reporting on a 24-hour, seven-day week basis. 2. The National Air Sampling Network, operated by federal, state, and local cooperating agencies, consists of approximately 165 active air sampling stations and supplies basic data on the extent of air pollution throughout the United States. Among the contaminants measured is radioactivity. 3. The Public Health Service National Water Quality Network, one feature of which consists of the measurement of radioactivity, utilizes over 60 sampling stations located on interstate waterways.

These waterways are used for public water supplies, for propagation of fish and wildlife, for recreational purposes, and for agricultural, industrial, and other purposes. 4. The Interstate Carrier Water Sampling Project includes, among other things, the determination of the radioactivity content of water at some 190 sources of public water supply involved in interstate commerce activity. Samples are assayed in accordance with the "Report of the Advisory Committee on Revision of the Public Health Service 1946 Drinking Water Standards," of May 3, 1961. 5. The Public Health Service Milk Monitoring Program consists of two networks, one of which monitors the radioactivity of raw milk produced in specific milk sheds to develop methods for radionuclide determinations in fluid milk. The other monitors the radioactivity in pasteurized milk representative of that consumed by large population groups of the United States. The sampling pattern for the stations monitoring pasteurized milk is designed to
Food Sampling The food sampling program of the Public Health Service has two basic objectives. The first is to determine the intake of radioactivity through the total diet; the second, to determine methods by which this intake may be reduced should it become unacceptably high. This second objective involves such things as the determination of the specific items of diet which contribute the major portion of the radioactivity intake and the determination of the path through the food chain by which the radionuclides reach the food that is consumed. In designing a food sampling or diet sampling program, both objectives must be kept in mind. Additional complications in developing a representative or valid total diet sampling program result from such factors as dietary habits due to geographic, religious, racial, economic, age, and sex differences. One must also recognize limitations created by resources available for the collection and analysis of the samples for radioactivity. This problem of diet sampling is not unique to the field of radiological health; dietitians have worked with it for many years! The first step in any approach is to determine exactly what people eat. There are three obvious ways of going about this: (1) to interview families and ask them what they eat; (2) to conduct a market-basket survey, that is, go to the retail outlets and determine what people are buying; or (3) to use gross sales figures of foods by cities or by regions. Once dietary habit has been determined, there are three possible analytical approaches: (1) Analyze all of the food items being consumed individually and then from the results of these analyses and the data on consump.

tion, calculate the radioactivity intake; (2) set up a composite diet, based on the consumption information, and then analyze the total composite diet for radioactivity; or (3) analyze for radioactivity those food items which constitute the largest part of the diet, and assume that the major contribution will be from such food items, so that they can be used as the basis for calculating intake. The investigative or pilot study work, described in more detail later, is intended to evaluate these approaches to determine the minimum system in terms of resources and manpower that will yield valid results. After thorough investigation of the three basic analytical approaches to food sampling listed above, the "composite diet" sample approach, No. 2, was selected as the best for the initial program. The first approach was rejected for a nation-wide system of monitoring radioactivity intake via the diet as being prohibitively expensive; the third or "indicator food" approach was deferred for possible later use. Once the sampling approach was selected, the interest was to find a system that could quickly give some estimate of total dietary intake for a limited population group and which would at least reflect accurately the intake of that cross-section of the population which was under study. In choosing the test segment of the population, it was finally decided to select a group of boarding schools where we could study the dietary intake of the younger age group, specifically, children under 18. After selection of the test group and a decision on an analytical approach, criteria could be developed for an institutional food sampling program.
Criteria for Pilot Study In outlining the initial surveillance
plan for the estimate of radiation exposure levels resulting from the ingesSEPTEMBER. 1962
tion of radioactivity in the total diet, the following basic criteria for the type of sampling were established, and the locations selected where sampling operations were to be carried out. (a) Composite Diet at Point of Consumption-Consistent with the criteria established in connection with other monitoring activities of the Service, the basic approach of sampling as near as possible to the point of consumption was taken. Preliminary studies of available data on food consumption habits in the United States indicated that the pilot study should not be based on market survey information, as these data were not precise enough to furnish the necessary information on the radioactivity intake. Estimates based on available information of the variation in eating habits, as well as consideration of minimum quantities of food for radioassay, resulted in a selection of a minimum composite diet sample of 21 consecutive meals along with snacks or other dietary intake to be assayed each month. (b) Controlled Population in Specific Age Group-The decision was made to concentrate initial sampling in the younger age group, specifically children under 18, based on the relative importance of radiation exposure for this population group. The conclusion was soon reached that the "boarding school" or similar institution for children offered the best opportunity for sampling in the initial phases of the study. Since stability was considered an important population characteristic, the relative permanence of membership within such institutions was thought to present the best opportunity for investigation of potential relationships or associations between food intake, radiation exposure, and the demographic characteristics of a group for study for a period of months to years. (c) Geographic Spread-In view of the expected regional variation in food consumption patterns, it was agreed

that the broadest possible geographic representation should be included in the selection of sampling points. It was assumed that the pattern of food consumption at each selected institution would generally reflect the pattern for the geographical region. No attempt was made to set standard economic conditions for the institutions; in fact, in selecting the sampling points some effort was made to pick institutions with some variation in this characteristic. (d) On-Site Food Service-A further requirement imposed for the selection of institutions for diet sample collection was the existence of an operating onsite food service providing three complete meals each day to the population group under study. This criterion was considered important since the sampling point would then coincide with the major food preparation point. This facilitates storage and shipment of samples and provides a responsible food service supervision contact familiar with both the food service situation and the children under study. It was also decided that institutions utilizing government surplus food would be avoided as the prolonged storage of such food might bring results atypical of the area under study.
Field Sampling Operations The current institutional diet sampling program in operation consists of
seven boarding schools or institutions scattered throughout the United States. They represent young people between the ages of 5 and 18 and range from exclusive and expensive boarding schools to orphanages with severe economic limitations. The program has had a mixed reception by the participating schools. In one instance the institution is so proud of the part it plays in the sampling network that the fact is mentioned in the
school brochure; in another, the institution is so sensitive of its use as a sampling station that empty sample containers must be shipped to individuals outside the school and carried into the institutional kitchen after all identifying marks have been removed. The initial seven sampling points were set up as pilot stations to develop technics relating to collection, transportation, and laboratory examination of the samples. Each metropolitan area is participating in the Pasteurized Milk Network sampling program and municipal water supply analytical data are available at each station. It is planned to expand the total diet program to include at least 20 institutions during this fiscal year. Contracts have been established with the individual institutions whereby they are paid for the food they supply. Prices range from $25 to $80 for a seven-day total diet sample. Shipping costs for the empty containers moving to the sampling points and the full containers returning to the laboratory average about $30 each. Many complex problems have been solved in the chain of events involving shipping the empty container, sample collection, record keeping, sample shipping and handling, sample preparation, and the development of analytical procedures which give reliable and reproducible results reflecting both accuracy and precision. A quality assurance program has been established to meet the latter requirement. In general, the sampling procedure is the same in each case. Each sample, as it reaches the laboratory, represents a full seven-day diet of 21 meals, plus soft drinks, candy bars, or other between meal snacks. Each institution supplies one total diet sample each month as represented by a different youngster. If the custom of the institution is to serve cafeteria style, the desigVOL. 52, NO. 9, A.J.P.H.

nated individual may push two trays down the line, selecting duplicate servings. At the end of the serving line the contents of one of the trays are placed in the sample containers provided and stored in the deep freeze unit until the next meal or snack time, when the process is repeated. If served at tables, the student may set a second plate which receives an equal portion as his own and is removed to the kitchen to be placed in a sample container. A record is made of each item and of the approximate amount by portion that goes into the sample. At the end of the sevenday period the sample as received at the laboratory consists of a carton containing three containers: one of solid food minus seed pits, rinds, shells, bones, and so forth, that would not ordinarily be eaten; one of dairy products such as milk, cottage cheese, ice cream, anrd the like; and one containing soft drinks, coffee, tea, or other beverages. In addition, a record of the contents of each meal is kept by the individual and the approximate ainounts of each item are reported by the supervisor and placed inside the carton.
Upon completion of the sampling procedure, the frozen sample is placed in the shipping carton together with an adequate supply of dry ice and shipped by air express to one of two radiochemical laboratories operated by the division, located in Las Vegas, Nev., and Montgomery, Ala. Each sample usually consists of 6 to 16 liters; sample weights ranged from 8 to 20 kilograms. Before grinding and blending, each portion is inspected for nonedible materials which sometimes find their way into the sample. Items of interest are bones, pits, peels, melon rinds, and sealed individual boxes of cold cereal. Aliquots of the slurry are prepared for laboratory analysis. A homogenous slurry and representative aliquots are difficult to achieve unless care is taken in blending. Analytical Program for Food Sample -The basic analytical program for the institutional food surveillance project was designed around three basic procedures: (1) the gamma scan, (2) strontium-90 analysis, and (3) total radium analysis. The gamma scan technic utilizes a 256-channel gamma analyzer with a 4" x 4" sodium iodide

(thallium activated) crystal which scans the food samples for the presence of gamma emitting radionuclides. In the absence of interference other than naturally occurring radioactive potassium (K-40), minimum detectable levels on a per kilogram basis are 10 /uptc, 5 ,uttc, 450 ,u,uc, and 15 uuc for I-131, Cs-137, K-40 and Zn-65, respectively. Gamma scan results for composite food samples obtained before and after the nuclear weapons test moratorium have shown marked differences. The principal activity demonstrated prior to resumption of testing is that of radioactive potassium (K-40), though earlier samples contained small amounts of Cs-137, while I-131 and other fission product radionuclides appeared after September, 1961. In addition to the basic weight, ash and moisture determination, stable calcium and potassium are obtained by conventional gravimetric or spectrophotometric means. Values for potassium-40 intake ranged from 440 to 3,800 pujc per day with an average of 2,300 /uuc per day. Phosphate determinations are by colorimetric technic. Phosphorus and calcium may have an important effect on the uptake of important bone seeking radionuclides such as strontium-89 and 90; hence, these determinations were included in the analytic program. Total radium is determined by ashing, separation, and coprecipitation of radium and barium sulfate or chromate. After transfer to planchets, alpha activity is determined by an internal proportional counter with appropriate delay for check of ingrowth of radium daughters. As soon as emanation equipment is installed and calibrated, a specific determination for radium-226 will be made. The total radium technic now being used at the laboratories is a practical screening indicator of radium-226, but the presence of other natural radionuclides may con1398

Results

1. The preliminary results of the institutional food sampling network, consisting of nine stations collecting the seven-day composite diet of children, indicate that it is possible to estimate dietary radioactivity intake by means of total composite diet collection and assay systems. 2. The dietary intake of strontium-90 by children for all sampling points was estimated by this program to range from 1.3 to 14.6 ,uyc per day with an average value of 6.9 jtuc per day from food, beverages, and snacks served in boarding schools at several locations in the United States. This value lies within the lowest radiation protection guidance limit of the Federal Radiation Council of 0 to 20 ,u,c per day for strontium-90. 3. The dietary intake of total radium by the children studied was estimated to be 1.7 to 12.7 lqAc/day with an average intake of 5.9 juyc/day. Assuming the radium-226 component of the total radium activity is at least 30 per cent, the intake of radium-226 via the diet lies near the upper limit of the Range I level of the radiation protection guidance of the Federal Radiation Council of 0 to 2 ,utc per day for radium226. 4. The rapid scanning of composite diet samples by means of crystal detectors and gamma spectrometry is a useful method of establishing limits of possible contamination of food by gamma emitting radionuclides. A three and one-half liter volume, or the solid equivalent, of the samples is counted. It is important to count fairly large amounts of lowlevel samples in order to measure as much total activity as possible. Using
this technic, the minimum levels of detection, on a per kilogram basis, are: 10, 5, 450, and 15 micromicrocuries for iodine-131, cesium-137, potassium-40, and zinc-65, respectively. The weights of three and one-half liters of composite food samples will vary from 6 to 8 per cent, depending primarily upon the amount of moisture contained in a given sample. The reported absence then, of identifiable peaks in the gamma scan, Teflects the absence of the above radionuclides at the level indicated. 5. Extreme variability in weights of collected composite samples due either to differences in diet or in control of technic during the collection of the sample can be expected. Differences in sample weights by factors approaching five were observed in this program. Where there is voluntary collection of the composite diet at the sampling point, strict adherence to the basic criteria for sample collection is difficult to insure. Follow-up visits to the sampling point by health agency personnel is essential to maintain reasonable control of sample collection. 6. Though attempts were made to document the diet items by menu as served at the sampling point, the variation in radioactivity content due to strontium-90 and radium could not be attributed to the presence of any specific diet item. Comparison of the total diet intake levels of strontium-90 with those previously reported for milk confirms previous estimates that milk may account for about half of the dietary intake of this radionuclide by children. 7. Preliminary results of tests made at two sampling stations for iodine-131 since resumption of nuclear weapons testing show that the principal contributor of this radionuclide to the dietary intake of children is fresh milk. Iodine-131, as indicated by the milk sampling network, has been absent during the last two years of the weapons test moratorium. This has been the case

for strontium-89 and barium-lanthanum 140, with only the long half-life cesium137 and strontium-90 evidenced in milk.
Discussion This program endeavors to determine the technical and administrative feasibility of estimating ranges of radiation exposure resulting from the ingestion of radioactivity in the diet. As a pilot study, this has been demonstrated successfully. However, we feel that the type of surveillance which will be developed from this study for routine purposes will not be adequate to initiate control measures or counter measures that might become necessary as a result of increased fallout levels. It is believed that such studies must be carried out in more detail at state and local levels. Studies on these problems are currently being planned by the Public Health Service in cooperation with state and local health authorities under the guidance of the National Advisory Committee on Radiation to the Surgeon General. In planning a food surveillance program, however, much important work was accomplished in developing and evaluating technics for determining total radiation exposure and the results of such exposure. An example of such early work in developing methods was one county-wide survey for total radiation exposure. In addition to air and water sampling throughout the county, 1,000 households were surveyed to determine their dietary habits by various demographic characteristics. These families were also questioned about the number and types of x-ray examinations experienced within a given period of time. Concurrent with the family interviews, questionnaire data were obtained on the basis of market-basket surveys and on market sales figures for the area involved. We hope to learn a number of things
from this limited one-county survey. The information gained will be carefully studied in an attempt to arrive at a reasonably accurate estimate of the total exposure to which this one geographical segment is subjected. Each dietary item that appeared in the family questionnaire has been sampled in sufficient quantity for radioactivity analysis. Through analysis of these individual dietary items, it is hoped that a list may be developed indicating which items of the diet may contribute the bulk of radioactivity by nuclide to the individuals' daily intake. It will also be possible to calculate the individual family and the average intake of radioactivity from diet for this population group under study. It is interesting to note that this will involve the analysis of over 800 items of diet for radioactivity. It appears obvious from this fact that any surveillance project involving individual analyses of all items of diet will not be practical for a routine program.

at a specific and critical age group. Results from this current activity will give us meaningful data in terms of total dietary intake for the population at large, but not in sufficient detail to initiate any indicated control measures. Work is under way to develop a more comprehensive system of total diet study which it is hoped will yield more specific data for the population as a whole and for geographical areas and religious, racial, economic, age and sex groups and will provide a basis for the development of effective counter measures, should they become necessary.
