ERIC D. BUTLER
Mr Eric D. Butler first established himselfas an authorityon national
and international affairs when writing for the morning Melbourne paper,
"The Argus", soon after the Second World War. But as a young man
before the war he was already widely known as a lecturer and writer. In
the post-war years he specialised on International Communism, writing
extensively for journals throughout the English-speaking world. Two of
his books, "The Fabian Socialist Contribution To The Communist
Advance", and "Dialectics - Communist Instrument for World
Conquest", have had a wide sale. He has travelled widely, visiting the
world's trouble spots, reporting and lecturing.
SIR RAPHAEL CILENTO
Very few menhavehadthe vast andvariedexperiencesofSir Raphael
Cilento, a great Australian. In most parts ofthe world he isrecognized as
a leadingexpert in the field oftropical medicine. While pioneering in this
field he gained an intimate picture of colonial problems in many parts of
the world. He has held numerous administrative posts in his long and
distinguishedcareer. He was appointed U.N.R.R.A. ZoneDirectorin 1945
for the British occupied zone in Germany. Sir Raphael saw at first hand
the creation of the U.N., and was Director for the Division of Refugees
in 1946 and for the Division of Social Activities from 1947-1950. After
leavingthe U.N., Sir Raphaeldevoted himselfto travellingextensivelyand
lecturing and writing on international affairs. His intimate knowledge of
most parts of the world, his personal acquaintance with many of the
outstanding political and military figures of the Second World War and
post-war years, coupled with a deep knowledge of history, fitted Sir
Raphael Cilento to become one of the world's outstanding experts on
international affairs.
Sir Raphael Died in 1985.
The Red Pattern of World Conquest
Introduction
By
Sir Raphael Cilento
Forecasting the trend of world politics is always a thankless
activity, because if it turns out that you are right, no one ever
remembers it, while, if you are wrong no one ever forgets it!
It is because events have so amply confirmed the predictions
Eric Butler voiced in 1959and earlier and set out in print in 1961,
that I consider it an honour and a privilege to write this
introduction to this new edition of "The Red Pattern of World
Conquest". The book is a succinct, factual, and readable precis of
the history of the ruthless drive of international communism into
the crumbling citadel ofcivilization. It isthoroughly authenticated
and documented; it is frightening in its simplicity and forthright
approach but, more frightening, to those of us who have been
involved for years upon the edges of the gathering storm, is the
heedless complacency of the masses destined to be serfs of the
Soviets, if the Soviets win.
In order that they should not win, everyone should be aware
ofthe communist strategy, its policy oferosion and attrition in the
political, ecnomic, militaryand propaganda fields - and should be
alert to neutralize the effects of that creeping paralysis with which
it numbs the unwary minds of men and goodwill.
This is the purpose of the book - and it fulfils it well.
In 1945 at the end of World War 11,I was appointed to take
charge, under Field Marshal Montgomery, of the hundreds of
thousands or refugees in the British Zone of Occupation in
Germany. This led in 1946 to my appointment as Director of the
Division of Refugees and Displaced Persons, with global
responsibility in that regard, at the newly formed headquarters of
United Nations in New York.
The Western World, after unprecedented expenditures of
blood and treasure in two colossal wars, was utterly warweary.
World War I- "the war to end all wars" - had merely been the
preludeto World War 11. The LeagueofNations had boggeddown
in the morass that formed round the greed, fear, arrogance, and
hate of suspicious or power-hungry nations or men; and was
doomed from birth, indeed, by the refusal ofthe United States of
America to recognize it, though Woodrow Wilson had fathered it,
and forced it upon his reluctant colleagues. This time, in 1945,
there was to be no mistake! The United Nations "with teeth in it"
was to found itselfupon the essential individisibilityofworld peace
and world prosperity. Drowning men clutch at straws and these
were prepared, in their extremity, to swallow any plausiblepanacea
- ignoring history and impatiently dismissing reasoned warnings.
Their extremity was Russia's long awaited opportunity and the
Kremlin used it in a series of masterly manoeuvres that have
advanced their sappers to the very siege-lines ofthe devastated and
unwary West.
The organization of a world wide "United Nations" was a
concept as old at least as the multi-national debates among the
victors after the Napoleonic Wars. It was the Czar who put the
project forward, in some cases in words that re-echo in the present
U.N. charger, and with all the solemn and farcical protocol from
"unity to ensure peace" to "summit conferences." In that day and
age it had been Lord Castlereagh, the British representative, who
had exposed the futility of so sentimental a pipe-dream and had
withdrawn to England, from which vantage point he had watched
his pessimistic predictions fulfilled.
The Russians of the present century were much more subtle.
Lenin had once evoked roars of applause at a communist
2
international conference in Mid-Asia by announcing dramatically:
"I too am an Asian". The strategy he had advanced in 1921 had
beensummed up in the phrase; "The shortest road to Paris is via
Peking!" on the one hand; and, on the other, by hisadvice that the
Asian-type weapon to use against the West, as in judo or ju-jitsu,
wasits own strength - its best men and its best sentiments and
principles. Moreover, Lenin's successors (who maintained both
points of his policy) did not forget that the United Nations (U.N.)
and the United Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R.) both tacitly
add to their titles the words "of the World"!
At the end of World War II it was "the Soviets" who had
gained an inflated popularity through a slanted Press which
acclaimed their sufferings; the victory at Stalingrad; the so-called
"liberation" of the Eastern European Nations and the myth of
their advocacy of: universal brotherhood; the abolition of war;
peaceful co-existence; and a planned world-wide economy. Their
fervent claim for universal brotherhood was directed towards
winning the support of university men and women, clergymen,
social workers and sincerely pacifist agencies, and they succeeded
beyond their anticipation. Was not universal brotherhood the
wistful hope ofall men ofgoodwill? The best men believed it. But
was it not true that brotherhood could not be universal if one
brotherwasfree and the otherenslaved or a "secondrate citizen"?
It seemed an obvious corollary.
The Western nations set themselves almost hysterically to
"liberate" the people in their colonial possessions - no matter
howprimitive, no matter how prematurely. Asthey moved out, the
Soviets moved in. Within five years their plans had become
sufficiently securely established, to be publicly proclaimed. They
intended to capture the United Nations (of the world); to identify
it with and absorb its members into the United Soviet Socialist
Republics(ofthe world); and to use the economicand propaganda
weapons with which the West provided them to subvert and
strangle the West.
Those of us who made our first contacts with the communists
at U.N. in 1946 (first General Assembly) began dimly to suspect
3
a sort of pincer movement aimed at that objective. We had no idea
it had been increasingly in operation since 1917. We thought it a
new and jejuneattempt at power politics which would get nowhere
and could be ignored. Was not the United States of America so
dominant that it could rely on 46 ofthe 57 votes in the Assembly,
with, 6 for the Soviet bloc, and the remainder abstaining?
Had not some American (whether knave or fool does not now
matter) insisted that to convince the Soviets ofour good faith and
impartiality, the Russian among the eight assistant Secretaries
General to Trygve Lie, should be granted the vital portfolio of
Security - the secret window on all the world? It had been agreed
(under pressure from America) and Russia has held it ever since.
Was not Trygve Lie himselfa compromise appointee as Secretary
General, acceptable to the West because he had been a member of
the Norwegian government-in-exile, and acceptable to Russia
because he had been earlier a visitor to Moscow from Norway, a
radical Socialist, in fact a communist sympathiser who had, as the
world now said, "pressed his pants" and progressed to
respectabilityin the Western sense? Allthese wereacceptedassigns
of a general desire for "co-operative co-existence".
Yet there were warnings too.
After a long series of Russian defeats in debate (West 46;
Soviets 6; abstaining 5!) I was standing behind the brilliant
Vyshinski, the permanentrepresentativeofU.S.S.R. inthe General
Assembly, and said flippantly to his alternate: "Don'tyou everget
tired of these defeats - and your inability to put a resolution
through unless America graciously consents? Don't you ever think
of giving up the unequal battle and going home?" Vyshinski who
usually ignored all but top ranking diplomats and denied any
knowledge of English, wheeled and asked abruptly in Russian:
"What did that officer say?" On hearing it repeated, he said: "It
is true we can get nothing on the agenda paper - now! - unless
Washington agrees and that they agree sometimesonly to defeat us
and headline our supposed humiliation. This we regard with
contempt. Whatdo the votes ofthe ignorant matter? Two hundred
years ago, if a vote had been taken as to whether the world was
4
flat or round, ninety nine per cent would have voted it was flat
but it would not have altered thefact that it wasround. Tell him,"
hecontinued, "that in ten years' time the U.S.A. will get no vital
resolution on the agendapaperwithout ourconsent, or only so that
it can be defeated and the arrogance of the Americans humbled.
The Americans then will want to modify the Charter or leave the
United Nations, but they will find it impossible to dismount from
the tiger they are creating!" He stalked off. He was almost exactly
right, but hedid not liveto seethe day, as wehave, when the Soviet
blochasa majorityin the UnitedNations andwhen the U.S.A. and
itsdwindling group of supporters can carry no vote on anything if
the Soviet decides to inflame the Afro-Asian bloc against it with
such meretricious slogans as "economic imperialism" or
"disguised colonialism".
But there wereother minor portents: Trygve Lieinstructed me
todraft a "personalparticulars" form for the useofthe Personnel
Department. I thought I could not do better than apply (with any
modifications necessary) the form used by the Metropolitan Life
AssuranceCompany- amodel form in myopinion. But itwas the
unexpected cause ofa near riot, a protestmeeting, and astop-work
threatfrom the 2000or soemployeesinthatearly stage (1946). And
the reason? After the usual "name", "address", "birthplace",
"age", etc., came the heading (innocent enough in all seeming)
"religion", and it was this that provoked nearly 60070 to near
hysteria! "It can be - it is - a secret basis for discrimination
a new roster for genocide" was the amazing accusation. Amazing
or not, the form was scrapped, but not before it had demonstrated
Quiteunexpectedly the large proportion of the early staffthat was
openly leftist, or violently anti-British, or fanatically pro-Zionist,
or often, all three.
Harry Dexter White, the communist traitor who was the evil
genius who governed Roosevelt in his final 24 months of senility,
at Teheran and Yalta, was dead; but it was a matter for
astonishment when Alger Hiss presented himselfin myDivision(as
hedid ineveryother)with ageneral and particularletterinstructing
all Divisional Directors to make available to him all papers and
