John D. Rockefeller Sr. was the patron of the Institute (1901) and Foundation (1913), which was administered by his assistant Frederick T. Gates and initiated by his son John D. Rockefeller Jr., (born 1874). JDR Jr. “took an interest” in healthcare in the 1890s and organized the original founders of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research (RIMR) from the circle of William H. Welch and Daniel Coit Gilman (co-founder of Yale Skull and Bones) of Johns Hopkins University. The popular story of the RIMR’s founding concerns the death of Edith Rockefeller McCormick’s young son in 1901 which also led to the establishment of the McCormick Institute for Infectious Disease in Chicago, although planning for the institutes began many years prior. Christian A. Herter and L. Emmett Holt, both students of W.H. Welch at his JHU laboratory, joined with ‘Junior’ to found the New York City RIMR.

Rockefeller Family, businesses and descendents http://citizendia.org/Rockefeller_family Patriarch, John D.”Rockefeller kept his children hermetically cut off from the world and hired governesses to educate them at home.

John D. Rockefeller Jr. married Abby Green Aldrich on October 9, 1901. Abby was the daughter of Senator Nelson W. Aldrich from Rhode Island, who attended the ultra-private Jekyll Island, GA. meeting to establish the Federal Reserve**. In 1900, ‘Jr’ financed the building of Memorial Hospital (Sloan-Kettering*) on the campus of Cornell. He directed Standard Oil and U.S. Steel until 1910. The RIMR incorporated a teaching hospital in that year. In 1911, the Standard oil monoply was broken up by the Sherman Anti-trust Act, which actually increased Standard’s market share from the 80th percentile into the 90th. In 1913, Jr. established the ‘Bureau of Social Hygiene’ and the Rockefeller Foundation. Over the next three decades, JDR Jr. funded the American Society for the Control of Cancer (forerunner to the American Cancer Society), excavations in Luxor Egypt, the restoration of Colonial Williamsburg, the building of Rockefeller Center, the Museum of Modern Art in NYC, donated the property for the United Nations and built the Rockefeller Museum in Jerusalem which is home to the Dead Sea Scrolls. JDR Jr. and Abby had one daughter and five sons.
*1950 memorandum describing Sloan-Kettering, chartered in 1945: “The Institute connects with Memorial Hospital and the new city-owned Ewing Hospital… Technically SKI is a subsidiary of Memorial Hospital. There is also a tie-in in operating arrangements with the nearby Cornell University Medical Center, New York Hospital, etc. Dr. [James B.] Conant, [Arthur] Compton, Dr. [Detlev] Bronk, as well as Lewis Strauss and Alfred Sloan, are trustees of SKI. Lawrence [sic] Rockefeller has recently become President of Memorial Hospital..which has a relatively large board [of trustees], including Lewis Strauss…Dr. [Cornelius ‘Dusty’] Rhoads..pointed out that much of the work is being directed toward research closely related to chemical warfare and perhaps not so distant from biological warfare matters..” [memo written by William T. Golden] http://archives.aaas.org/golden/doc.php?gold_id=80

This was a surprising reversal for Aldrich, who previously had opposed..significant changes.. believing that only bond related notes should be issued…[Paul] Warburg met Nelson Aldrich in 1907…they became a team after Warburg proposed his ‘United Reserve System’ ..in 1910…” [pp18-22, A-Foregone-Conclusion..] http://www.answers.com/topic/nelson-w-aldrich
Rockefeller Plaza and the golden statue of Prometheus
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockefeller_Center The statue inscription reads “Prometheus, teacher in every art, brought the fire that hath proved to mortals a means to mighty ends”
In 1927, prior to the Wall Street Crash and the construction of Rockefeller Center, Standard Oil and I.G. Farben formalized a joint partnnership that created the world’s largest chemical consortium. Howard Ambruster published a critical work in 1947 on the interwar history of the Standard-Farben venture: “Treason’s Peace, German Dyes and American Dupes”. Ambruster wrote, “..it is and must be recognized as a cabalistic organization which..operates a far-flung and highly efficient espionnage machine –the ultimate purpose being world conquest and a world super-state directed by Farben.” www.archive.org/stream/treasonspeaceger00ambrrich/…
Rockefeller Center legal business was handled by one of the family’s designated Wall Street firms, “Milbank, Tweed” (and partners), joined after WWII by John J. McCloy, the Salk Institute’s founding chairman www.polioforever.wordpress.com/john-j-mccloy/ ; www.polioforever.wordpress.com/jeremiah-milbank ; Nelson Rockefeller exerted a particular dominance over management of the Center and in 1948 the Rockefeller Brothers Fund bought the Center.

William H. Welch, first president and scientific director of the RIMR
William Welch, son of a wealthy family of pharmacists from Norfolk Connecticut, was recruited to Johns Hopkins University by John Shaw Billings, the founder of the National Library system for both government and the public. Before JHU had a medical school, biology laboratories were arranged for Welch and William Osler to train young men in the new field of microbiology. Welch was a graduate of Yale and a devoted Skull & Bonesman who also became the president of the National Academy of Sciences (1913-1917) and board chairman of the Eugenics Record Office. The RIMR, William Welch, and Simon Flexner who was trained by Welch, had an enormous role during WWI and the pandemic Spanish Flu that swept the globe in 1918-1919, recounted by author John Barry in “The Great Influenza”.

In 1931 Rhoads joined the Commission for the Study of Anemia in Puerto Rico, where an unsent letter he wrote condemning Puerto Ricans caused a scandal, reported in Time magazine as “Porto Ricochet”, Feb 15, 1932. Susan E. Lederer reviews the history of this incident: http://www.scribd.com/doc/53156735/%E2%80%9CPorto-Ricochet%E2%80%9D-Joking-about-Germs-Cancer-and-Race-Extermination-in-the-1930s; “During World War II, after some work with the National Research Council and in the OSRD, he and members of his OSRD unit went into the chemical warfare service of the Army, in which he remained as a Colonel from 1943 to 1945.” http://archives.aaas.org/golden/doc.php?gold_id=80; Director of Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research.
Max Theiler – (1899-1972) son of a prominent South African veterinarian originally from Basel, Switzerland; Theiler trained in London and at Harvard and joined the RIMR in 1930, scooping the competition to create a yellow fever vaccine for which he won a Nobel in 1951.

Rivers https://polioforever.wordpress.com/thomas-m-rivers/ ; from 1937 –1955 Rivers was also the Director of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis (NFIP) or The March of Dimes, founded by FDR. “Thomas Milton Rivers came to the hospital of the Rockefeller Institute in 1922 with the aim of establishing a research program in the new field of viral diseases… When Rivers was made director of the Institute’s hospital in 1937, he was a world authority on virus research, a field that was then undergoing rapid growth as part of the nascent molecular biology program. During his directorship (1937-1955), Rivers was an active coordinator of medical war projects, and a principal organizer of research programs within the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis (N.F.I.P); the N.F.I.P. became a major pursuit after his retiring from the Institute.” http://www.amphilsoc.org/guides/kay/Primary2.htm#Rivers ; Rivers oversaw coordination of the Atomic Bomb Casualty Commission.
Watson, Crick & Wilkins, discoverers of DNA structure (1953, led to 1962 Nobel Prize) worked at the Rockefeller. Francis Crick spent the rest of his lengthy post-Nobel career at the Salk Institute. J.D. Watson became the director of Cold Spring Harbor Lab.

The Rockefeller Sanitary Commission, founded October 1909 — “The Rockefeller Sanitary Commission for the Eradication of Hookworm Disease was organized on October 26, 1909, as a result of a gift of $1,000,000.00 from John D. Rockefeller, Sr. who hoped that a five-year campaign against the disease would lead to the “adoption of well-considered plans for a cooperative movement of the Medical Profession, Public Health Officials, Board of Trade, Churches, Schools, the Press, and other agencies.” The gift was accepted on October 26, 1909, by William Welch, Simon Flexner, Charles W. Stiles, Edwin Alderman, David Houston, P. P. Claxton, J. Y. Joyner, Walter H. Page, H. B. Frissell, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Frederick T. Gates, and Starr Murphy…. The eradication effort was to be a joint project between the states and the Sanitary Commission. The Commission was to furnish the initial impetus and to serve as an information agency for the states. It also paid the salaries of the field personnel. Offices were opened in Washington in January, 1910… ” http://www.rockarch.org/collections/rockorgs/hookwormadd.php

Rockefeller FOUNDATION, chartered by New York State in 1913 :
signed by:
John D. Rockefeller and John D. Rockefeller Jr.
Henry Pratt Judson – Pres. of University of Chicago
Simon Flexner – Director of RIMR, NYC
Starr Jameson – legal counsel
Charles W. Eliot – Pres. of Harvard
“The list of officers of the Rockefeller Foundation from 1913-63 reveals a great deal about this organization. The four chairmen of the board have been John D. Rockefeller. Jr. 1917,1939, Walter D. Stewart, 1939-50, John Foster Dulles, 1950-52, and John D. Rockefeller 3rd, 1952-63… Examining the dominant members of the Rockefeller Foundation, we find men whose lives have been devoted to war and revolution, chemical warfare, international intrigue, and mass murder; …what we do not find is anyone who has ever engaged in any charitable endeavor.” –Eustace Mullins, The World Order; A study in the Hegemony of Parasitism, Ch7 The Foundations http://www.truthwinds.com//siterun_data/government/new_world_order/news.php?q=1216314837
The Foundation began in 1902 as the General Education Board, a mirror of the Carnegie Foundation. Simon Flexner’s brother Abraham Flexner* became president of both General Education Boards. In 1928, significant breakthroughs in quantum physics appear to have substantiated the consolidation of the International Education Board (founded 1923), which undertook the direct financing of individual physicists who were dedicated to the production of nuclear weapons as well as other select projects of genetics and drug development. Abraham Flexner, under the auspices of Carnegie’s board in 1910, created the “Flexner Report” to reform North American medical education to the ‘German model’ and eliminate ‘non-aligned’ institutions. Grants and publicity were used to leverage universities into cooperation. As the influential president of Carnegie and Rockefeller education boards, Abraham Flexner carried the model to the reformation of all public schooling.
*Abraham Flexner co-founded the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, a hub for biological study during/after the Manhattan Project; founded Princeton’s Institute of Advanced Study (with L. Bamberger and Julia Fuld funding); influenced the founding of Vanderbilt Medical School; see Simon Flexner page links
“George Foster Peabody*,..deputy chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York since 1914, and noted “philanthropist” who organized the General Education Board for the Rockefellers, stated that he supported the Bolshevik form of state monopoly…Because the Federal Reserve Bank of New York was controlled by five New York banks who owned 53% of its stock, and because these five banks were directly controlled by N.M. Rothschild & Sons of London, we can only conclude that these.. men were merely stating the preferences of their employer… Many Americans are puzzled by the relentless devotion of the Rockefeller Foundation to financing Communist organizations in many parts of the world. This dedication to Communism can be traced back to a crucial moment in the Bolsheviks’ march to power. In 1917, Mackenzie King had established a lifelong relationship with John D. Rockefeller, Jr. whom he met in June, 1914. They had been born in the same year, 1874, and seemed to agree on everything. Soon, King was working closely with Frederick T. Gates and Ivy Lee to further the Rockefeller “philantropies”, which seemed to view Communism as the ideal vehicle to bring about world brotherhood…The Rockefellers helped Mackenzie King obtain government contracts for the Canadian Army during World War I… the Rockefellers appointed Mackenzie King head of the Rockefeller Foundation dept. of Industrial Research at a salary of $30,000 a year (the average wage in the U.S. at that time was $500 year). Frank P. Walsh testified before a U.S. Commission that the Rockefeller Foundation was a cloak for the Rockefeller plan to lead organized labor into slavery… John D. Rockefeller instructed his press agent, Ivy Lee in 1925 to promote Communism in the U.S. and to sparkplug a public relations drive which culminated in 1933 with the U.S. government recognition of Soviet Russia. In 1927 Standard Oil of New Jerseybuilt a refinery in Russia, after having been promised 50% of the Caucasus oil production…The Standard Oil operation has always been directed by the most professional bankers in the world, the Rothschilds; consequently, the Rothschilds through their agents, Kuhn, Loeb Co. have maintained close supervision of the “Rockefeller” fortune.” http://www.modernhistoryproject.org/mhp/ArticleDisplay.php?Article=WorldCh02
*Peabody was a director of the polio philanthropy Warm Springs Foundation
[1996] “Grant Enables Technology Transfer for Edible Vaccine” : “Researchers at the Boyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research Inc. at Cornell now will begin exchanging new vaccine information with scientists in developing countries, starting with Mexico, thanks to a new Rockefeller Foundation grant…[the]research eventually will lead to an edible HIV vaccine” http://www.news.cornell.edu/Chronicle/96/9.12.96/edible_vaccine_grant.html

In 1914, the Rockefeller Foundation established the China Medical Board, and in 1915 took over Peking Union Medical College http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peking_Union_Medical_College . Rededicated in 1921, Peking Union was staffed with RIMR alumni; Alfred E. Cohn, Henry Houghton, Ann G. Kuttner, Louise Pearce, Carl Ten Broeck and Donald Van Slyke. Cofounder, consultant, and eventual director of the China Medical Board was Roger Sherman Greene II [resigned in 1934], brother of Rockefeller Foundation Secretary Jerome Davis Greene (1913-1916), former Secretary of the Harvard Corporation(1905-1910) and president of Lee, Higginson & Co from 1917-1932. [Jock Whitney joined Lee Higginson in 1929, see Nelson A. Rockefeller page]
1917, Peking Union Med. professor Edmund V. Cowdry http://becker.wustl.edu/libdept/arb/arbpdf/FC008-CowdryEV.pdf Cowdry traveled extensively in Africa on medical assignments for the Rockefeller.

RIMR,”Department of Animal Pathology” (DAP), Princeton New Jersey, formally founded in 1915 to study disease in swine, specifically ‘hog cholera’ which was provided for by a grant of $50,000 from James J. Hill of the Great Northern Railroad.
Director, Theobald Smith (born Schmitt) http://www.whonamedit.com/doctor.cfm/409.html , ( Bureau of Animal Industry, Harvard)
RIMR Princeton pressured New Jersey to exempt it from state ‘animal cruelty’ laws http://www.mhsnj.org/resources/THE_ROCKEFELLER_INSTITUTE_FOR_MEDICAL_RESEARCH.pdf
In 1937, DAP staff researchers inserted human DNA into hemaephilus influenzae bacteria using ‘bacteriophage’ techniques and infected a herd of New Jersey swine, giving them a prostrating sickness. Is this the source of human-avian-swine flu genes passing as H1N1? Mixed species virus of this type, called “unsubtypable H1N1”, has been tracked by the CDC since (at least) the late 1990s. The military ‘flu’ records from the ’90s suggest it is present in the recruit population at a rate approximating 20%. In 1937, Albert Sabin had a laboratory at the DAP.
_______________________________________
1916, creation of the International Health Board , focused on tropical disease, laboratory facilities, public health and pest control in Latin and South America, the Middle East, and Asia. From the Rockefeller archives: “Organizational History: In 1913, the Rockefeller Foundation established The International Health Board (known as the International Health Commission until 1916, when its name changed to the International Health Board) for the purpose of extending the work of the Rockefeller Sanitary Commission for the Eradication of Hookworm Disease. In addition to hookworm, the Board’s early public health activities included control of yellow fever, malaria, tuberculosis, public health education, virus studies and related research. In 1927, the Board was disbanded. Its work was continued by the new International Health Division of the Foundation. In 1951, the International Health Division was merged with the medical sciences program and public health activity was de-emphasized.” Hookworm disease eradication is now a priority of the Sabin Vaccine Institute with funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
After 1916, he Rockefeller Foundation made contracts with the Brazilian government to eradicate yellow fever with the application of Paris Green pesticide http://www.schwartzman.org.br/simon/space/chapter7.htm . In 1928, after the program had begun, Rio de Janeiro experienced a large outbreak ; Yellow Fever — ” It is thought that the disease originated in Africa and spread to the Americas in the 17th and 18th centuries through trading ships. The flavivirus that causes yellow fever was first identified in 1928 and the first vaccine against the disease was produced at the Rockefeller Institute in New York in 1937.” http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/446721. The WHO gives statistical background on the spread of YF and the resulting encephalitis (and viral hepatitis) from vaccines http://www.who.int/vaccines-documents/DocsPDF/www9842.pdf . West Nile is also a flavivirus and its leading expert, Charles Rice, has a lab at Rockefeller University and a contract with Project BioShield through his pharmaceutical house Arpath LLC.
Hilary Koprowski went to work for Rockefeller in Brazil in 1939. Sometime after 1940, he came to the RIMR. Koprowski went on to work for LeDerle after WWII and finally to direct the Wistar Institute in Philadelphia, by the campus of the University of Pennsylvania. Koprowski is suspected of initiating the AIDS epidemic in Africa through administering polio vaccine in 1957, the year of peak atmospheric fallout.

1917 — Paris, France — RF field office: “The International Health Board (IHB) of the Rockefeller Foundation opened an office in (wartime) Paris in 1917 as the headquarters for the work of the Commission for the Prevention of Tuberculosis in France. In 1922, anticipating the transfer of the tuberculosis work to the French and the expansion of RF work in Europe, the IHB agreed to share space and administrative expenses with other divisions of the Foundation, and the medical education, medical sciences, natural sciences, social sciences, and studies divisions were subsequently represented in Paris. The Paris office served as the Foundation’s fiscal agent for European affairs, administering payments of appropriations made by the Foundation to projects in Europe. The office also administered appropriations made at the discretion of the Paris officers and acted as fiscal agent for other U.S. organizations. The office was closed in 1959.” http://www.rockarch.org/collections/rf/#field

Commission for the Study of Anemia in Puerto Rico
William B. Castle, hematologist at Thorndike Memorial Laboratory
“Castle in 1931 enlisted the interest of the Rockefeller Foundation in underwriting an expedition to Puerto Rico to assess the efficacy of his liver extract in patients with tropical sprue [fatal anemia]. Under Rockefeller auspices, an entourage consisting of Castle, Cornelius P. (Dusty) Rhoads, and a group of assistants set sail for this subtropical island..[where] a majority of its citizens were laid low by the coendemic ravages of tropical sprue and hookworm-induced anemia. At the Presbyterian Hospital in San Juan, in which their laboratories were located, Castle and Rhoads were at first fascinated by the rich aromas borne by the breeze… Tropical sprue patients had megaloblastic anemia and severe glossitis similar to that of untreated pernicious anemia, but these patients failed to respond to oral liver extract or to combinations of beef muscle and normal gastric juice. Furthermore, many of them had ample amounts of acid gastric juice, which contained normal concentrations of intrinsic factor, as determined with the “human reticulocyte assay” performed on frozen specimens mailed to the expedition’s anchor man in Boston, Maurice B. Strauss. In the treatment of sprue, Castle’s home-brewed parenteral liver extract paid off wonderfully, patients responded promptly, and the debilitating anemia of sprue was established as resulting from “intestinal impermeability,” later referred to as malabsorption syndrome. The pathogenetic mechanisms responsible for initiating tropical sprue, and its curiously spotty distribution, still have no tidy explanation, but since the Castle-Rhoads expedition empirical prophylaxes with folate [B6] and cobalamin [B12] have eradicated this melancholy menace in Puerto Rico.” http://www.nap.edu/readingroom.php?book=biomems&page=wcastle.html
>>polioforever – pernicious anemia (or aplastic anemia) was a hazard of radiation work. Marie Curie, her daughters and son-in-law, Frederic Joliot-Curie died of this ailment.

….”The world financial structure, far from being an unknown or hidden organization, is actually well known and well defined. It consists of the major Swiss Banks; the survivors of the old Venetian-Genoese banking axis; the Big Five of the world grain trade; the British combine, centered in the Bank of England and its chartered merchant banks, functioning trough the Rothschilds and the Oppenheimers and having absolute control over their Canadian colony through the Royal Bank of Canada and the Bank of Montreal, their Canadian lieutenants being the Bronfmans, Belzbergs, and other financial operators; and the colonial banking structure in the United States, controlled by the Bank of England through the Federal Reserve System; the Boston Brahmin families who made their fortunes in the opium trade, including the Delanos and others and the Rockefeller Syndicate, consisting of the Kissinger network headquartered in the Rockefeller Bank, Chase Manhattan Bank, American Express, the present form of the old Rothschild representatives in the United States, which includes Kuhn, Loeb Company and Lehman Brothers.”…..
“… John D. Rockefeller was routinely caricatured by socialist propagandists as the epitome of the ruthless capitalist. At the same time, he was the principal financier of the world Communist movement, through a firm called American International Company. Despite the fact that the House of Rothschild had already achieved world control, the sound and fury was directed exclusively against its two principal, representatives, John D. Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan. One of the few revelations of the actual state of affairs appeared in Truth magazine, December 16, 1912, which pointed out that “Mr. Schiff is head of the great private banking house of Kuhn, Loeb & Company, which represents the Rothschild interests on this side of the Atlantic. He is described as a financial strategist and has been for years the financial minister of the great impersonal power known as Standard Oil.” Note that this editor did not even mention the name of Rockefeller.
“Because of these concealed factors, it was a relatively simple matter for the American public to accept the “fact” that the Rockefellers were the preeminent power in this country. This myth was actually clothed in the apparel of power, the Rockefeller Oil Trust becoming the “military-industrial complex” which assumed political control of the nation; the Rockefeller Medical Monopoly attained control of the health care of the nation, and the Rockefeller Foundation, a web of affiliated tax exempt creations, effectively controlled the religious and educational life of the nation. The myth succeeded in its goal of camouflaging the hidden rulers, the Rothschilds.”

The Rockefeller fights FAT:
Rockefeller University researchers find the “Obesity Gene” http://www.rockefeller.edu/history.php; News May 2011 “Scientists find ‘master switch’ gene for obesity http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20110515/lf_nm_life/us_obesity_genes
American Cancer Society (a Rockefeller establishment) states “It’s become increasingly clear that obesity is a factor in approx. a dozen different types of cancer –especially postmenopausal breast cancer in women and colorectal cancer in men”. The U.S. Army is the foremeost breast cancer research sponsor, and it is known that radiation (x-rays and mammography) is a leading cause of breast cancer.
The New England Journal of Medicine calls obesity the New Plague. From the NEJM, “Obesity – The New Public Health Frontier” (series 2002-2003). “The public health law posits…that government has both the power and the duty to regulate private behavior in order to promote public health. The constitutional source of this authority is the police power, which encompasses both directly coercive interventions and policies such as taxes and subsidies that shape behavior by altering the costs of certain choices”…..

James E. Darnell Jr. — “Darnell discovered RNA processing in human cells while he was a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1963.” http://www.timesunion.com/local/article/Winners-unlock-big-questions-on-cells-3440779.php; in 1974, he joined the Rockefeller. Darnell wrote RNA Life’s Indispensable Molecule that “describes how scientists unraveled fundamental questions about the biochemical and genetic importance of RNA—how mRNAs are generated and used to produce proteins, how noncoding and catalytic RNAs mediate key cellular processes, and how RNA molecules likely initiated life on Earth.” http://www.nyas.org/Events/SCDetail.aspx?cid=29244f02-0450-4878-9a05-eaf33e1362b8; His career has included poliovirus research with Harry Eagle at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, research with François Jacob at the Pasteur Institute in Paris and academic appointments at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Columbia University. In 1974 Dr. Darnell joined Rockefeller as Vincent Astor Professor, and from 1990 to 1991 he was vice president for academic affairs. http://www.rockefeller.edu/research/faculty/labheads/JamesDarnell/
