Black Magic and engaging in a sophisticated form of occultism which attempts to link their minds with the Cosmic Consciousness. It is easy to see why some buffs and cults are viewing all this with alarm and trying to blame the mythical Nine Unknown Men or II-luminati. Anyone who studies history carefully can detect the presence of some outside influence - an influence that has largely been detrimental, even sinister. Yet the ancient gods and the modern Brothers from space have come to us in a benevolent guise. m 1 ’ toot 14 assumptions: (1) That the ultraterrestxidls are teal in some manner and are not merely a psychological phenomenon or myth. (2) That the UTs have a need for communicating with us. If such a need exists, then it would be logical for them to create secret societies or even a whole race of people to carry out their wishes. To be truly effective, such a race would have to be clannish and aloof from the societies in which it moved. They would, undoubtedly, be so strange and furtive that outsiders would soon surround them with legends and nonsense. A group like this does exist. They are spread all over the world. We call them Gipsies. The ultimate secret society. Nobody really knows where the Gipsies come from, not even the Gipsies themselves! Some tribes have advanced the notion that they somehow came from the sky. We do know that no Gipsies existed before their sudden appearance in Europe in the fourteenth century. They identified themselves as Dukes of Egypt. They quickly established themselves as remarkable magicians and clairvoyants and were regarded as the fulfilment of EteMel's prophecy, 'T shall scatter the Egyptians among the nations'. Their talents for sorcery and fortune-telling led to the creation of a whole body of myth. Even the modern Washington seer, Jeane Dixon, claims that a wandering Gipsy ladypresented herwith her first crystal ball when she was eight. Gipsies have their own language, which is derived from Hindi and Tibetan. They apparently have no racial ties with the Egyptians at all but probably came from India and Afghanistan originally. In February 1968 a Gipsy tribe established a government-in-exile in Paris to demand payment of reparations from the Germans for what they suffered in World War n, claiming that four million Gipsies had perished in Hitler's death camps. They also announced their plans to re- establish Romanistan where Somaliland is today. They even sought United Nations recognition. An estimated two million Gipsies now live in the United States, so they outnumber the surviving Indians by a large margin. But they are a silent minority, remaining by themselves, keeping their children out of pubEc schools, and suffering constant persecution without complaint. Gipsies do not use the mails or telephones, yet when a prominent Gipsy dies, the word seems to spread instantly, and tribes from all over the country converge for the funeral. They pay no income taxes, even though some tribes seem to have accrued considerable wealth and ride about in big black Cadillacs. They have never practised what they preached. To support our outrageous hypothesis we must make two basic
