No country or company has ever solved espionage and intelligence actions within it.

Industrial "espionage" is a very prevalent activity.

As our policy letters and materials are often found in wrong hands we must be subjected to internal espionage on occasion. We certainly are subjected to intelligence externally. Intelligence actions internally in a company or organisation take five main courses:

• 1. Theft of documents or materials.
• 2. Executive actions contrary to the company's best interests if not outright destructive.
• 3. Administrative enturbulation including messing up files, addresses, facilities or communications.
• 4. False reports or false advices to customers or staff to bring about apathy or defeatism.
• 5. Perversion or corruption of the product (in our case, technology).

Financial gain is the primary motive in almost all cases of infiltration. A very experienced European Intelligence officer stated that he had never failed to buy any person he had ever approached in any government, and this in a lifetime career in the field of espionage. Governments and many companies have amongst them people who are in or who can be forced into heavy financial trouble. By offering surprisingly small sums of money, any one of the five actions listed above could be effected by an enemy.

The practice is so common as to be commonplace but the harm done is all out of proportion to the effort employed.

Guarding against infiltration is a vital action for survival and nations and companies spend huge sums on counter- intelligence, the action of foiling the efforts of enemies.

In studying the extensive literature of this subject an inexpensive effective solution has occurred to me which I do not think has ever been used.

If finance is the motive, then of course one should reward successful Counter-Intelligence actions. An enemy seeks those in debt or forces persons into debt so they can be bought. If the person being baited were assured of a safer reward, the person would usually incline toward his own country or company.

An org should therefore display in an area mostly frequented by staff, near the staff bulletin board or in the W.C., but not necessarily to the public, a placard worded somewhat as follows:

As Industrial espionage is an ordinary occurrence in most companies, the staff is requested to be alert for

• 1. Any theft of documents or materials.
• 2. Orders or directions which will result destructively.
• 3. Any disturbance of files, bills or addresses.
• 4. False reports or advices to staff or customers or preached defeatism.
• 5. Willful corruption of tech.

Anyone detecting any of the above should report the matter at once to the nearest Guardian's Office with names and full particulars.

Should further investigation result in the disclosure and apprehension or arrest of persons attempting willful harm to this organisation

A REWARD OF $250 (£100)

will be paid by the Guardian's Office.

Should a staff member be approached and asked to attempt any of the above actions he should promptly seem to agree, should accept any money offered (which he may keep) and should quickly and quietly report the matter to the nearest Guardian's Office so that the instigators can be traced and arrested, at which time the $250 (£100) reward will be paid.

Another reward of $100 (£30) will be paid any staff member or person in the field who should hear of or be subjected to any provocative anti-organisation activity in the field and who then forwards the criminal background and connections of the provocative person in such form that it may be given to the police by the Guardian's Office.

Should any staff member have knowledge of any financial irregularity within the organisation and furnish proof of it to the Guardian's Office promptly along with evidence sufficient to prosecute he shall be given 25% of all monies recovered.

Any person or agency attempting to accomplish any of the above five points by reason of attempted Blackmail of a staff member is liable to arrest. In this case the reward is also paid to the staff member on the arrest and conviction of those attempting it and the Guardian's Office will defend the person even before law and excuse the misdemeanor or crime being used in the blackmail attempt.

An amnesty of all such actions before 15 September 1969 is fully granted providing the matter is reported promptly to the Guardian's Office.

Staffs are requested to cooperate fully to help continue to make an org and area a safe environment from which freedom may expand.

Alertness is the penalty we pay for living in an aberrated society. Truth cannot live in an atmosphere of deceit.

Our Dianetics and Scientology orgs are fortunate in that where tech is "in" very little infiltration can occur since persons cannot benefit from things they try to harm.

Our primary protection is "in" tech and well processed staffs. It follows that when tech is out, ethics will be found out also. Persons who have no or little case gain are the only ones we have any trouble with. No other organisation and no country has as good a chance as ours to be free of infiltration. One other thing worthy of note in connection with Counter-Intelligence is that countries and companies which do not have a high cause, a high allegiance, have need of tremendous counter-intelligence forces. If we keep our integrity high and give staffs good and valuable government, we will have maximum Counter- Intelligence effectiveness with minimum effort since our staffs would themselves militantly defend their executives and the org.
