would seem to pertain not only to works of children's fiction.
The Fabian Society has also apparently been of particular interest to the Rockefellers—David Rockefeller did his senior thesis on Fabian Socialism at Harvard (“Destitution Through Fabian Eyes,” 1936), and studied left-wing economics at LSE. The Rockefellers have allegedly funded many Fabian projects, including the LSE, which “in the late 1920s and 1930s received millions of dollars from the Rockefeller and Laura Spelman Foundations, becoming known as ‘Rockefellers baby.’” The International Monetary Fund (IMF), established in 1944 along with the World Bank, was also reputedly a Rockefellers project, and the IMF provided several loans to Labour governments, in 1947, 1969, and 1976.
Another important loan of $4.34 billion was negotiated in 1946 by Fabian economist John Maynard Keynes and facilitated by his friend and collaborator Harry Dexter White who operated within the US Treasury as well as the IMF. All these loans were organised under successive Fabian Chancellors Hugh Dalton, Roy Jenkins and Denis Healey. (Cassivellaunus, 2013)
$4.34 billion was an astronomical amount in 1946, and if these facts are accurate, it's easy to imagine how far-reaching and pervasive the Fabian influence might have become, via the organizations and agendas fueled by such monies.
Hugh Dalton is mentioned in The Dust Has Never Settled by Robin Bryans (a very oblique exposé on government corruption, occult secret societies, and child abuse), with reference to his title as “the Minister of Economic Warfare,” as a possible procurer of children for sexual use (it's hard to tell with Bryans's cryptic phrasings). Roy Jenkins is a lot easier to nail down, but we'll get to him later. John Maynard Keynes is linked directly to two close associates of my grandfather, including John Boyd Orr, who my grandfather met in the USSR in the 1950s. Boyd Orr was the first director-general of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization and the cofounder and first president (1960–1971) of the World Academy of Art and Science. He gave an address to the Fabian Society on “food policy” in 1940, three years after my grandfather founded his own company. In the 1950s, he became president of Northern Dairies.
According to the aforementioned anti-Fabian site, the Fabian Society “developed an obsession with economics” early on and “its members met regularly to study and discuss Karl Marx and his economic theories”.8 Literally dozens of different organizations sprung up over the decades prior to the Sixties, including the Social Science Research Council, some of whose documents are held at the London School of Economics library, under such titles as “Outline proposals for development of Albany Trust, 1967–1978” and “Study of Human Sexuality in Britain: proposals for establishing an institute of social behaviour.” The Albany Trust was founded, the same year homosexuality was legalized, in the apartment of one of my grandfather's (seemingly) close associates, J. B. Priestley, the chairman of the aforementioned 1941 Committee, with whom my grandfather started the CND. The Albany Trust is generally associated with civil liberties and gay rights, hence is seen as being left-leaning. Yet there's evidence to suggest it may have been funding the right too, such as its involvement with the Conservative Group for Homosexual Equality (CGHE).
The abuse research blog The Needle (2013) implies that the CGHE was implicated in the promotion of Elm Guest House, a now-notorious child brothel in Barnes, London. The CGHE was founded in 1975 by Professor Peter Campbell, of Reading University, who was chairman or vice-president through most of the Thatcher years. Campbell also edited the newsletter and has been named as a visitor to the Elm Guest House. According to The Needle, “The minutes from the founding meeting clearly show that, despite being labelled as an organization that promoted gay equality, it was from inception a ‘pro-pedophile organization.’”
CHAPTER III
Havelock Ellis, Lolita, and the sexual child
“Once again, you need to remember we aren't conspiracy hunting but tracking an idea, like microchipping an eel to see what holes it swims into in case we want to catch it later on.”
—John Taylor Gatto, Underground History of American Education
The link between the Fabian Society and the Paedophile Information Exchange, while unmistakable, is also inconclusive. It's necessary to go further back, to the founding Fabians, to get a better sense of the philosophy which my grandfather embraced.
As far as I can trace it, the Fabian Society (originally the Fellowship of New Life) began with the sexologist Henry Havelock Ellis (some accounts have spiritualist Frank Podmore as the originator). The son of a sea captain, born in Croydon in 1859, Ellis traveled widely in Australia and South America before studying medicine at St. Thomas’ Hospital in London. In 1883, he joined a socialist debating group established by Edith Nesbit and Hubert Bland, and in 1884 the group became known as the Fabian Society. At these meetings, Ellis met Annie Besant, Graham Wallas, George Bernard Shaw, Edward Carpenter, Walter Crane, H. G. Wells, and Sidney and Beatrice Webb.
Havelock Ellis is attributed with coining the word “homosexual” and was one of the first people in history to show an academic interest in pedophilia. (The term did not become widespread until the 1950s.)1 This is hardly surprising, since Ellis compiled a six-volume work entitled Studies In The Psychology of Sex, between 1897 and 1928. Ellis was reputedly a sexual experimenter as well as a drug user, and allegedly even combined the two (hallucinogens and private group sex sessions). The writings of Ellis were among the key texts that formed the basis for sex education in British colleges and, later, schools. Ellis is sometimes known today as “the father of social psychology.” From Science in the Bedroom: A History of Sexual Research:
Essentially, Ellis’ work was a plea for tolerance and for accepting the idea that deviations from the norm were harmless and occasionally perhaps even valuable. He, like [Magnus] Hirschfeld [who founded the Scientific Humanitarian Committee, perhaps the first organization to advocate for homosexual and transgender rights], was a reformer who encouraged society to recognize and accept sexual manifestations in infants and realize that sexual experimentation was part of adolescence. Ellis held that it was important to repeal bans on contraception as well as laws prohibiting sexual activity between consenting adults in private. (Bullough, 1996, p. 76)
This sounds reasonable enough, and it was entirely in accord with the value-set I was raised with. Yet, in the context of other less openly-discussed areas of “sexual exploration” which seemed to sprout quite organically from the Fabian tree (such as PIE), it also reads like a recipe for disaster.
One of Ellis's best known followers appears to have been the aforementioned economist, John Maynard Keynes. Keynes, the attentive reader may recall, backed my grandfather's friend and future Bilderberger, Eric Roll, as professor at Hull University. One of Alec's other associates was the psychologist Nick Humphrey, who was Keynes's grandnephew. Keynes is known to have been a pederast and probably a child molester too. Unfortunately, the most explicit source of information for Keynes's sexual proclivities, his adherence to Ellis's teachings, and his Fabian associations, “Keynes at Harvard: Economic Deception as a Political Credo,” is by Zygmund Dobbs, who rails against all things Fabian. According to Dobbs, “The Fabian perverts used the areas mentioned by Ellis [in his Studies in the Psychology of Sex] practically as a guide book. Keynes visited all of the Mediterranean areas mentioned, usually in the company of another English homosexual (Tunis, Algeria, Constantinople, Sicily, Capri, Cairo, Greece and Salerno) [areas] where little boys were sold by their parents to bordellos catering to homosexual appetites” (Dobbs, 1962, p. 118n.).
Ellis's influence extended beyond his fellow Fabians, however, all the way to Freud, and later, to Vladimir Nabokov.
