The Founder cc: The Guardian WW via CS-G D/G US ((Deputy Guardian US)) Dear Ron and Mary Sue, For your information, I have attached a summation of the major wins of the U. S. Guardian Office in 1970 -- a year of expansion in scope and operation for our office. We greatly appreciate the opportunities offered to us in assisting the forward progress of Scientology, and of course the continually superb leadership provided by yourselves and The Guardian WW. Thank you for your confidence in us. We look forward to even greater successes for all of Scientology in 1971. Love, Rob D/G US 30 December 1970 The Founder The Guardian WW via CS-G D/G US ((Deputy Guardian)) CONFIDENTIAL US GUARDIAN OFFICE WINS IN 1970 Dear Ron and Mary Sue, Following are the major wins of the U.S. Guardian Office in 1970. BUREAU 1 - PERSONNEL 1. At the start of 1970, there were three Assistant Guardians appointed and on post in the U.S. Currently, Assistant Guardians are appointed for all U.S. Orgs and ten are on post. 2. Seattle's key staff members are staying and/or signing new contracts rather than deserting the Org. 3. Unhandled or ignored Freeloaders from San Francisco have been gotten back or handled per HCO Freeloader policy. 4. HSST procured for USGO staff auditor. 5. USGO staff cases near 90% in category 1. 6. USGO Bureaux manned up. 7. Effective A/G training program put in. 8. Staff procurement greatly increased in the U. S. Orgs. 9. Five straight weeks of rising GI after ASHO projects begun. 10. Grand National Convention led to success by D/G Personnel Jim Mulligan as C/O. BUREAU 2 - POLICY KNOWLEDGE ((PK)) 11. Per G.O. 210970 MSH, PK in liaison with Tech, Personnel and Finance indicated and corrected outnesses at ASHO. Results to date: four weeks with ASHO GI over $25,000. 12. While ECUS ((Eastern Continental US)) was working directly in outer Orgs, PK was called on several times to hold D/HES ((Deputy HCO Exec Sec, Div 7 1 2)) and D/PES ((Deputy Public Exec Sec Div 6)). While PK held the D/HES post, a very specific set of targets for all outer Orgs produced sharp rising 'letters out' GDSs, ((Gross Daily Statistics?)) plus the 2nd highest US gross income in a year. While D/PES, PK worked on pre-Grand National Convention promotion, assisting to gather the large crowd of Scientologists in Long Beach. 13. Early in 1970, the PK stats of all Org Divisions throughout the U.S. in normal or above was at a low of 10. The PK standard actions of getting policy known and applied have seen this stat rise consistently to its current 60. 14. PK has supplied at least 100 hats to US execs and outer org execs, including an almost complete hatting of the Austin org. PK initiated the project to provide 25 copies of each Guardian post hat for U.S. and outer org A/Os. A PK survey of staff training throughout the U.S. provided data on how few Org Exec Course graduates were working in Orgs, PK supplied OEC checksheet stencils to all Orgs, and a program for setting up and administering the course. (Note: Orgs complying fully with the program showed a rise in GDS condition). 15. D/G PK assisted D/G Personnel to run the outer org A/G ((Assistant Guardian)) training program in the US GO. 16. PK wrote and produced the NY Dissemination Manual -- the "how to" of NY prosperity in late 67/early 68. This manual is now being used by PESs throughout the U.S., and several requests for copies have come in from all over the world. 17. PK was sent into the L.A. Org as a Guardian heavy hussar until L.A. Exec Dir candidate has completed the FEBC ((Flag Executive Briefing Course)). PK's first action was to send five LA staff for FEBC training. She is hatting the staff and getting them onto their next Scientology training level, and is ensuring each secretary has a specific policy based program to raise his GDSs. BUREAU 3 - LEGAL 18. An attack by the Attorney General in Chicago aimed at the E- meter and one of the local missions there was successfully stopped with good PRO ((Public Relations ?)). There were two hearings held on this matter and the Attorney General gave us a clean bill of health. 19. An attack by the Charitable Status people in Chicago was successfully stopped by an indication that we could not belong under the Charitable Status Act since it was in infringement of our religious freedom and that as a religion we were exempt. 20.

FDA proceeding well; we have a very favorable judge and have caused by third party a break between the Justice Department and the FDA, and the Judge and FDA. ((third party is the effort by C, often by bearing false witness, to get A and B to break up by saying bad things to A about B.)) Neither the Judge nor the Justice Department is pleased with the FDA; Justice is indicating a willing to over-rule the FDA and enter into a Consent Decree notwithstanding the FDA's position against this. The Judge is also considering review of discrimination against us since no other religion is being persecuted. The Judge is forcing the FDA to take a position on our religious status and will not allow them to side-step this issue as they did before. 68. In the FDA TC case, we had limited government proof so that they cannot protest the fact that we are a religion or that auditing is a religious service.
