Apply­ing the strate­gies set forth in the Nazi tract Serpent’s Walk against the back­ground of the recent war in the Mid­dle East, the pro­gram (and FTR #661) sug­gests that we are wit­ness­ing the real­iza­tion of the Nazi ascent that is the book’s foun­da­tion. In addi­tion, the pro­gram presents this devel­op­ment against the back­ground of the ide­ol­ogy and career of SS man Otto Von Bolschwing, whose pro­tege (Helene Von Damm) selected the per­son­nel who have staffed the GOP over the years. The junior play­ers in the Rea­gan admin­is­tra­tions became some of the senior figures–the so-called neo-cons–in the Bush II years. In the pre-World War II period, Von Bolschwing hatched a plan to use Zion­ism as a sort of “global agent-provacateur” to alien­ate the Arab and Mus­lim worlds, dri­ving them toward align­ment with the Axis pow­ers and giv­ing the fas­cist forces con­trol over the piv­otal petro­leum resources of the earth island. Hatched in league with Axis sym­pa­thizer Ibn Saud (King of Saudi Ara­bia and the founder of the House of Saud) and Nazi spy Jack Philby, Von Bolschwing’s plan entailed lur­ing the British into sup­port­ing Jew­ish emi­gra­tion into the Mid­dle East in order to entice them into erod­ing their own polit­i­cal and diplo­matic sit­u­a­tion in that crit­i­cal part of the world. Uti­liz­ing con­trol over the opinion-forming media, the Under­ground Reich appears to be real­iz­ing the Von Bolschwing gam­bit and manip­u­lat­ing it in such a way as to dis­credit the United States (in lieu of Britain) and to demo­nize Israel, with an even­tual eye toward its anni­hi­la­tion. (Serpent’s Walk ends with a pre-emptive nuclear strike on israel by a num­ber of coun­tries allied with the Under­ground Reich.)

The pro­gram opens with a quote from al-Taqwa direc­tor, Islamist and neo-Nazi Achmed Huber, in which Huber pre­dicts that pop­u­lar opin­ion about Israel will be changed in the United States. Review­ing the Gehlen spy orga­ni­za­tion, the pro­gram high­lights the piv­otal role of that orga­ni­za­tion in the Third Reich’s suc­cess­ful plans to go under­ground. The pro­gram illus­trates that the Gehlen orga­ni­za­tion was the vehi­cle for pro­ject­ing Von Bolschwing into his piv­otal posi­tion in the United States, a posi­tion which enabled Von Damm to select the cast of char­ac­ters who have dom­i­nated the Amer­i­can and world polit­i­cal stages for the last sev­eral decades. After not­ing his influ­ence on the GOP and after detail­ing his 1930’s era plans to manip­u­late Zion­ism to the advan­tage of the Axis pow­ers, the pro­gram notes that Von Bolschwing also con­spired with Axis sym­pa­thiz­ers to ship oil to Nazi Ger­many. One of Von Bolschwing’s allies in that scheme was Nazi sym­pa­thizer and per­sonal friend of Hitler J. Paul Getty, whose fam­ily remained close to Von Bolschwing dur­ing his post­war, Amer­i­can career. The broad­cast con­cludes with dis­cus­sion of links between the Von Bolschwing/Getty milieu and promi­nent Bay Area Democ­rats, includ­ing San Fran­cisco mayor Gavin New­som and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. On the other side of the polit­i­cal aisle, Karl Rove’s father [to whom Rove was very close] was the chief geol­o­gist for Getty Oil.

Pro­gram High­lights Include: Review of the Cru­sade for Free­dom, the pro­gram that brought Von Bolschwing and other Nazi war crim­i­nals into the GOP; review of the own­er­ship of key media cor­po­ra­tions by the Under­ground Reich and its Arab and Mus­lim Broth­er­hood allies; review of the Gehlen Organization’s sta­tus as a pro­jec­tion of the Third Reich’s national secu­rity estab­lish­ment across the Atlantic and through the years; review of the Gehlen Organization’s sta­tus as a front for the ODESSA–the post­war SS underground.

1. Fol­low­ing the quote from al-Taqwa direc­tor, Islamist and neo-Nazi Achmed Huber, the broad­cast sets forth infor­ma­tion sug­gest­ing that Huber’s pre­dic­tion is actu­ally tak­ing place, deci­sively enabled by Under­ground Reich con­trol of the “opin­ion form­ing media” as set forth in the Nazi tract Serpent’s Walk. For The Record has long pre­sented the case that, like The Turner Diaries, a com­pan­ion vol­ume pub­lished by National Van­guard Books, Serpent’s Walk is in fact a blue­print and man­i­festo detail­ing Under­ground Reich strat­egy for its foot soldiers.

“The U.S. is the ally of 15 mil­lion Jews against 1.3 bil­lion Mus­lims; it is allied with 5 mil­lion Israelis against 200 mil­lion Arabs. . . We will bring down the Israel lobby and change for­eign pol­icy. We’ll do it in Amer­ica. When it hap­pens, you’ll understand.”

2. Review­ing the Gehlen spy orga­ni­za­tion, the pro­gram high­lights the piv­otal role of that orga­ni­za­tion in the Third Reich’s suc­cess­ful plans to go under­ground. Von Bolschwing’s entree into the United States was enabled by this orga­ni­za­tion, a pro­jec­tion of the Third Reich’s national secu­rity estab­lish­ment across the Atlantic and through the decades.

“William Shirer closed his 1960 mas­ter­piece, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, with the judg­ment that the Nazi regime “had passed into his­tory,“¹ but we can­not be so con­fi­dent today. On the con­trary, the evi­dence as of 1990 is that World War II did not end as Shirer believed it did, That Nazism did not sur­ren­der uncon­di­tion­ally and dis­ap­pear, that indeed it finessed a lim­ited but cru­cial vic­tory over the Allies, a vic­tory no less sig­nif­i­cant for hav­ing been kept a secret from all but the few Amer­i­cans who were directly involved. . . . But Mar­tin Bor­mann, who was even more pow­er­ful than Himm­ler, did not accept the premise of the separate-peace idea. Bor­mann was an inti­mate of Hitler’s, the deputy fuhrer and the head of the Nazi Party, thus supe­rior to Himm­ler in rank. Bor­mann wielded addi­tional power as Hitler’s link to the indus­trial and finan­cial car­tels that ran the Nazi econ­omy and was par­tic­u­larly close to Her­mann Schmitz, chief exec­u­tive of I.G. Far­ben, the giant chem­i­cal firm that was Nazi Germany’s great­est indus­trial power. . . With the sup­port of Schmitz, Bor­mann rejected Himmler’s separate-peace strat­egy on the ground that it was far too opti­mistic.⁶ The Allied mil­i­tary advan­tage was too great, Bor­mann believed, for Roo­sevelt to be talked into a sep­a­rate peace. Roo­sevelt, after all, had taken the lead in pro­claim­ing the Allies’ demand for Germany’s uncon­di­tional sur­ren­der and total de-Nazification. Bor­mann rea­soned, rather, that the Nazi’s best hope of sur­viv­ing mil­i­tary defeat lay within their own resources, chief of which was the cohe­sion of tens of thou­sands of SS men for whom the prospect of sur­ren­der could offer only the gallows.

Bor­mann and Schmitz devel­oped a more aggres­sive self-contained approach to the prob­lem of the loom­ing mil­i­tary defeat. the cen­tral con­cept of which was that large num­bers of Nazis would have to leave Europe and at least for a time, find places in the world in which to recover their strength. . . .

The inter­na­tional orga­ni­za­tion cre­ated to accom­mo­date Bormann’s plans is most often called ‘The Odessa,’ a Ger­man acronym for ‘Orga­ni­za­tion of Vet­er­ans of the SS.’ It has remained active as a shad­owy pres­ence since the war and may indeed con­sti­tute Nazism’s most notable orga­ni­za­tional achieve­ment. But we must under­stand that none of Bormann’s, Skorzeny’s, and Schacht’s well-laid plans would have stood the least chance of suc­cess had it not been for a final com­po­nent of their orga­ni­za­tion, one not usu­ally asso­ci­ated with the Odessa at all but very pos­si­bly the linch­pin of the entire project.

This final ele­ment of the Odessa was the so-called Gehlen Orga­ni­za­tion (the Org), the Nazi intel­li­gence sys­tem that sold itself to the U.S. at the end of the war. It was by far the most auda­cious, most crit­i­cal, and most essen­tial part of the entire Odessa under­tak­ing. The lit­er­a­ture on the Odessa and that on the Gehlen Orga­ni­za­tion, how­ever, are two dif­fer­ent things. No writer in the field Of Nazi stud­ies has yet explic­itly asso­ci­ated the two, despite the fact that Gen­eral Rein­hard Gehlen was tied polit­i­cally as well as per­son­ally with Sko­rzeny and Schacht. More­over, Gehlen’s fabled post-war orga­ni­za­tion was in large part staffed by SS Nazis who are pos­i­tively iden­ti­fied with the Odessa, men such as the infa­mous Franz Alfred Six and Emil Augs­burg of the Wannsee Insti­tute. An even more com­pelling rea­son for asso­ci­at­ing Gehlen with the Odessa is that, with­out his orga­ni­za­tion as a screen, the var­i­ous Odessa projects would have been directly exposed to Amer­i­can intel­li­gence. If the Counter Intel­li­gence Corps (CIC) and the Office of Strate­gic Ser­vices (OSS) had not been neu­tral­ized by the Gehlen ploy, the Odessa’s great escape scheme would have been dis­cov­ered and bro­ken up. . . .”

3. Note that Gehlen cleared his oper­a­tions with Admi­ral Von Doenitz [who assumed the offi­cial reins of Nazi com­mand after Hitler’s death] and Gen­eral Franz Halder, his for­mer chief of staff. This indi­cates that the Ger­man chain of com­mand was still in place while Gehlen was going to work for the U.S.!

” . . . As Gehlen was about to leave for the United States, he left a mes­sage for Baun with another of his top aides, Ger­hard Wes­sel: ‘I am to tell you from Gehlen that he has dis­cussed with [Hitler’s suc­ces­sor Admi­ral Karl] Doenitz and [Gehlen’s supe­rior and chief of staff Gen­eral Franz] Halder the ques­tion of con­tin­u­ing his work with the Amer­i­cans. Both were in agreement.’”

Idem.

4. Before detail­ing Otto Von Bolschwing’s con­cept for manip­u­lat­ing Zion­ism as a vehi­cle for alien­at­ing the Arab and Mus­lim worlds and boost­ing Nazi for­tunes, the pro­gram reviews von Bolschwing’s entrance into the coun­try as part of the Gehlen spy orga­ni­za­tion and a par­tic­i­pant in the Cru­sade for Free­dom. Note that this pro­gram paved the way for key Nazis–many of them war criminals–to move into the GOP. Von Bolschwing’s pro­tege Helene Von Damm selected the per­son­nel from which Ronald Rea­gan made his cab­i­net appoint­ments. The cast of char­ac­ters who occu­pied the stage dur­ing the Bush admin­is­tra­tions were junior play­ers on the Rea­gan team who moved up the pro­fes­sional lad­der. This is a crit­i­cal ele­ment of the Von Bolschwing legacy.

5. A key por­tion of the pro­gram deals with Otto von Bolschwing’s cyn­i­cal manip­u­la­tion of Zion­ism as a vehi­cle for alien­at­ing the Arabs and inflam­ing their anger toward the British. In effect, the Jews were being used as “agents prova­ca­teurs,” in order to win the Arabs’ sym­pa­thies over to the Axis. The cen­tral ques­tion to be con­sid­ered here is the extent to which the “neo-conservatives” [read “Jews”] may have been included in Von Bolschwing pro­tégé von Damm’s list of Rea­gan appointees in order to scape­goat them at a future time. To what extent are Wol­fowitz & com­pany fall guys for the Under­ground Reich?

“Eich­mann was replaced on the Mid­dle East­ern scene by a far more skilled intel­li­gence offi­cer, Otto Von Bolschwing. Before World War II, Von Bolschwing set up an import-export busi­ness in Pales­tine as a cover for his espi­onage ini­tia­tives. He was an edu­cated man from a good fam­ily and an enthu­si­as­tic sup­porter of Hitler. After the war, Von Bolschwing became one of Allen Dulles’s senior agents in the CIA.”

6. It should be noted that Bush fam­ily busi­ness asso­ciate Allen Dulles brought Von Bolschwing to the United States. Dulles and British spy (and Nazi dou­ble agent) Jack Philby were instru­men­tal in help­ing Ibn Saud estab­lish Saudi Arabia.

“Dulles helped Von Bolschwing emi­grate to Cal­i­for­nia, where he estab­lished a busi­ness asso­ci­a­tion with Helene Von Damm, later Ronald Reagan’s ambas­sador to Aus­tria. In later years, his busi­ness went bank­rupt and he was forced to sur­ren­der his Amer­i­can cit­i­zen­ship on the grounds that he was a Nazi war crim­i­nal. He was just the sort of fel­low to get along well with jack Philby. He hated Jews.”

(Idem.)

7. “In the 1930’s, Otto Von Bolschwing was a real­ist. He knew full well that the Moslem big­ots would never accept even a token immi­gra­tion of Jews to Pales­tine. Philby agreed. After more than a decade of anti-Zionist pro­pa­ganda, qui­etly super­vised by the British secret ser­vice, the cli­mate was hardly recep­tive toward a home­land for the Jews in the Mid­dle East. Still, there was profit to be made in the attempt.”

(Idem.)

8. “In any future war, Von Bolschwing said, the sup­port of the Moslem world was essen­tial to Hitler’s plans. Not to men­tion that Philby and Ibn Saud could make a healthy profit by secretly ensur­ing Germany’s sup­ply of oil. Hitler would guar­an­tee that the Moslems received favored sta­tus. Indeed, they later had their own SS divi­sion, raised, iron­i­cally, from among the Bosnian-Moslem pop­u­la­tion sub­jected to ‘eth­nic cleans­ing’ by the Serbs and Croats fifty years later.”

(Idem.)

9. “The SS divi­sion was per­son­ally blessed by Philby’s old friend, the grand mufti of Jerusalem. The mufti had been Hitler’s hon­ored guest and was even taken on guided tours of the Nazi death camps. Hitler promised that when Ger­many won the war, he would guar­an­tee that the Arab states would be free of British colo­nial dom­i­na­tion. They would be inde­pen­dent states, and full allies with the Third Reich. All of Philby’s dreams could come to pass. All that was needed was a lit­tle push.”

(Idem.)

10. “Von Bolschwing’s propo­si­tion was sim­ple. Philby should encour­age British sup­port for Zion­ist emi­gra­tion schemes, pen­e­trate the secret nego­ti­a­tions, and then leak them to the press, with the cer­tain knowl­edge of the pop­u­lar dis­con­tent that would result among Moslems. The Arab back­lash to a new British-Zionist ini­tia­tive might not drive the region into the arms of the Third Reich, but it would cer­tainly keep the oil-producing Arabs ‘neu­tral,’ but actu­ally tilt­ing toward the Nazis.”

(Ibid.; pp. 46–47.)

11. “It was no secret that Ibn Saud had more than a lit­tle sym­pa­thy for the Ger­man posi­tion on the Zion­ist issue. His extreme anti-Jewish feel­ings were made clear to a British diplo­mat in 1937. The king said his ‘hatred for the Jews’ stemmed from ‘their per­se­cu­tion and rejec­tion’ of Christ and ‘their sub­se­quent rejec­tion’ of Muhammed. Ibn Saud added that ‘for a Mus­lim to kill a Jew [in war], or for him to be killed by a Jew, ensures him an imme­di­ate entry in Heaven and into the august pres­ence of God Almighty.”

(Ibid.; p. 47.)

12. “Accord­ing to sev­eral of our sources, this was one of the aspects of Islam that most appealed to Philby. He had all sorts of schemes that could aid the Nazis, who meant busi­ness when it came to the Jews. Our sources say Jack obtained the king’s per­mis­sion to become a dou­ble agent for the Third Reich, pub­licly help­ing the Jews, pri­vately aid­ing the Nazis, always mak­ing a profit for the House of Saud and, nat­u­rally, him­self. The scheme appealed to Philby’s clan­des­tine nature. The more he worked to link Britain and Zion­ism pub­licly, the more dam­age he could do to the empire’s posi­tion in the Mid­dle East. . . .”

(Idem.)

13. “In fact, the king and Jack were play­ing a nasty lit­tle game with the Jews. Despite their ‘dis­agree­ment’ over the par­ti­tion plan, in early 1939, Ibn Saud sent Philby to Lon­don to be on hand for the Pales­tine Round Table Con­fer­ence. It does seem rather strange that the king would send some­one whose views con­flicted so clearly with his own. Appar­ently, Philby’s true mis­sion was sabotage.”

(Idem.)

14. “In order to set all sides against each other, Philby devel­oped his own plan on the Pales­tine ques­tion, which he put to British offi­cials as well as to the Jews and Arabs. In Feb­ru­ary 1939, he had a secret lunch with [Chaim] Weiz­mann and [David] Ben-Gurion, and intro­duced the Zion­ist lead­ers to Fuad Hamza, Ibn Saud’s long-time for­eign affairs offi­cial. Philby offered the Zion­ists sub­stan­tial Jew­ish immi­gra­tion into Pales­tine if they would sup­port the coun­try com­ing under Saudi domination.”

(Ibid.; pp. 47–48.)

15. “Weiz­mann was blamed when the ‘secret’ plan was leaked to the press, and there was no fur­ther progress. As will be seen, all of Philby’s schemes with the Zion­ists had a sus­pi­cious habit of com­ing to noth­ing. There is a def­i­nite pat­tern of sab­o­tage, with the Zion­ists as ‘fall guys’ every time. Amaz­ingly, the Zion­ists stuck by Philby for nearly five crit­i­cal years, while he treated the game as an auction.”

(Ibid.; p. 48.)

16. Philby then con­spired with the Third Reich to try to secure Saudi oil for Hitler, using Franco’s Spain as a trans-shipment point. (Ibid.; p. 51.)

17. In 1940, Philby, Ibn Saud, Allen Dulles, Dulles’ brother (and law part­ner in the pow­er­ful Sul­li­van & Cromwell firm) and Dil­lon, Read invest­ment pro­fes­sion­als Paul Nitze and James For­re­stall worked a three-way deal in order to secure Saudi oil for the Third Reich. (Ibid.; pp. 63–64.)

18. Ibn Saud, the Third Reich, Philby and the Grand Mufti actively con­spired to secure the Mid­dle East for Nazi Ger­many, with Ibn Saud as the head of the “caliphate.” This broad­cast sug­gests that the Von Bolschwing legacy entails using Israel/Zionism as “global agent prova­ca­teurs” to secure the Mid­dle East for the Under­ground Reich. (Ibid.; p. 68.)

19. Not­ing that J. Paul Getty was one of the oil barons who worked with Philby, Von Bolschwing et al to sup­ply oil to the Nazis, the broad­cast high­lights Getty’s affil­i­a­tion with Hitler.

“The Texan oil bil­lion­aire Jean Paul Getty was at the heart of a con­spir­acy to pro­vide sup­port to Hitler’s Ger­many early in the Sec­ond World War, accord­ing to newly released intel­li­gence documents.

The file links Getty to a shad­owy net­work of financiers who sup­plied the Nazis with fuel in defi­ance of a British block­ade and accuses him of gath­er­ing spies and trai­tors around him at his fash­ion­able Hotel Pierre in New York.

It records that he returned from Berlin in 1939 ‘talk­ing breezily of his old friend Hitler’ and that his busi­ness con­tacts included Serge Rubin­stein, a noto­ri­ous fraud­ster who ran part of his empire through London.

The ‘Sus­pect Per­sons’ file pre­pared by the For­eign Office for the Min­istry of Eco­nomic War­fare has just been declas­si­fied at the National Archives at Kew, south-west Lon­don. It appears to be the work of the British Secu­rity Co-ordination team in New York, run by William Stephen­son, Churchill’s secret envoy to Pres­i­dent Roo­sevelt, code­named Intrepid.

He was rumored to be behind the assas­si­na­tion of one of the lead­ing fig­ures in the deal to try to stop it con­tin­u­ing. The dossier was com­piled after the deten­tion in Trinidad in Octo­ber 1941 of the banker who worked for Her­mann Goer­ing, shift­ing Nazi funds out of Europe. He was car­ry­ing $100,000 cash and had another $1 mil­lion in a South Amer­i­can bank. . . .”

“Getty Helped Trai­tors Sell Oil to Hitler” by Peter Day; Daily Tele­graph; 8/25/2003.

20. The Getty inter­ests were very close to Otto Von Bolschwing, with J. Paul Getty, Jr. being a direc­tor of Von Bolschwing’s TCI firm. (“Ex-Nazi’s Bril­liant U.S. Career Stran­gled in a Web of Lies” by Pete Carey; San Jose Mer­cury News; 11/20/81; pp. 1A-24A.)

21. Not­ing another part of the Von Bolschwing legacy, the pro­gram notes pro­found Getty fam­ily influ­ence on Bay Area Democ­rats. Judge William New­som was one of Von Bolschwing’s close per­sonal friends and a direc­tor of TCI, Von Bolschwing’s elec­tron­ics firm. His son Gavin New­som is mayor of San Fran­cisco. (In 2004, New­som ini­ti­ated the gay mar­riage pro­gram in San Fran­cisco, in direct con­tra­ven­tion of Cal­i­for­nia law (under which gay mar­riage was ille­gal). Many key Democ­rats feel that Newsom’s actions had much to do with get­ting the Chris­t­ian right to turn out in force for the 2004 elec­tion, thereby mak­ing it close enough for the Repub­li­cans to steal. When inter­viewed about his motives, New­som replied with a George W. Bushian smirk. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is also very close to the Newsom/Getty axis. Her hus­band Paul Pelosi became a bil­lion­aire in the gam­ing machine indus­try. Doesn’t every­body? Again, the Get­tys are VERY close to this bunch, and some mem­bers of the fam­ily have per­pet­u­ated the reac­tionary fam­ily polit­i­cal her­itage. What we may well be see­ing here are “Bor­mann Democrats.”

“Belinda Bar­bara New­som, who was born into one polit­i­cally promi­nent Bay Area fam­ily and mar­ried into another, died Sat­ur­day at their home in San Fran­cisco at age 73. . . . Ms. New­som, who went by Bar­bara and whose mar­ried name was Pelosi, was the sister-in-law of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the aunt of San Fran­cisco Mayor Gavin New­som. . . ‘We were bap­tized Catholic and Demo­c­rat,’ chuck­led [Von Bolschwing friend and busi­ness part­ner] Bill New­som, the retired state appel­late court jus­tice and father of Mayor Newsom. . . .”

22. Flesh­ing out the “Getty Axis”–the pro­gram notes that Karl Rove’s father Louis was the head geol­o­gist for Getty Oil!

” . . . His [Karl Rove’s] response was: Well, my senior year in high school, my Dad was com­ing home on Christ­mas Eve. He had got­ten a new job, a huge job as the chief geol­o­gist at Getty Oil Com­pany in Los Ange­les. We were going to cel­e­brate my birth­day the next day. . . .”

“James Moore Explains Karl Rove, the Archi­tect of Bush’s Mas­ter Plan” [Buz­zflash Inter­view]; Buzzflash.com;9/19/2006.

23. Tack­ling an Inter­net story that’s made the rounds for the last five years, the pro­gram sets forth alle­ga­tions that Karl Rove has an overt Nazi her­itage. [This turned out to be dis­in­for­ma­tion, as I suspected–D.E.]

” . . . Karl Rove has par­al­lel ties. The shad­owy Rove serves as ‘Bush’s Brain’ in the cur­rent White House. He is the polit­i­cal mas­ter­mind behind the Cal­i­for­nia coup, and is now in the head­lines for out­ing Valerie Plame, the CIA wife of Ambas­sador Joseph Wil­son. A con­sum­mate strate­gist, Rove may have outed Plame in retal­i­a­tion for Wilson’s fail­ure to back up the Bush claim that Sad­dam Hus­sein was buy­ing nuclear weapons mate­ri­als in Africa. Accord­ing to some pub­lished reports, as many as sev­enty CIA oper­a­tives have been put at risk by Rove’s retal­ia­tory strike.

Accord­ing to Wil­son, and to Retired U.S. Navy Lt. Com­man­der Al Mar­tin (www.almartinraw.com), Rove’s grand­fa­ther was Karl Heinz Roverer, the Gauleiter of Old­en­burg. Roverer was Reich-Statthalter — Nazi State Party Chair­man — for his region. He was also a part­ner and senior engi­neer in the Roverer Sud-Deutche Inge­nieur­buro A. G. engi­neer­ing firm, which built the Birke­nau death camp, at which tens of thou­sands of Jews, Gyp­sies, dis­si­dents and other were slaugh­tered en masse. . . . ”
