FOREWORD
THIS BOOK makes no claim to literary merit. It
is simply a work of research and documenta
tion, giving evidence and facts which I trust will
help the reader in drawing his own conclusions.
In the course of my researches as an
international political investigator into the causes
of social unrest, I have probed the depths of
infamy which now surrounds, not ours only, but
also the next generation, whose right to lead a
decent life should be as good as was ours. As a
woman of the world I have witnessed things the
existence of which I did not suspect and I have
realised that, due to my " protected " position in
life. they should never have been expected to have
come to my knowledge. Let me tell every woman,
however much " protected", whether Dairymaid
or Duchess, that the safeguards which she
imagines to be thrown around herself are but a
mirage of the past. Her own and her children's
future are at the mercy of those " forces " the
activities of which it has been my business, for the
8 OCCULT THEOCRASY
last ten years, to follow as one of a group of
investigators.
Today, most of the good people are afraid to be
good. They strive to be broadminded and
tolerant ! It is fashionable to be tolerant — but
mostly tolerant of evil — and this new code has
reached the proportions of demanding intolerance
of good. The wall of resistance to evil has thus
been broken down and no longer affords
protection to those who, persecuted by evil doers,
stand in need of it.
Worse still, there are cases wherein virtuous
people's good name is relentlessly " filched from
them ", but no effort will be made by the
presumed good people to rally to their defence.
Happy are they if they themselves can discover
the cause of their ruin, materiel or moral, either
partial or total.
In offering this book to the public, I have
endeavoured to expose some of the means and
methods used by a secret world, one might
almost say an underworld, to penetrate, dominate
and destroy not only the so-called upper classes,
but also the better portion of all classes. There are
those who feel confident that if they refrain from
joining any society or group and avoid entangle
ments, no harm can befall them. To such, let me
say that situations can be, and are, created for
innocent dupes every day and wrecked homes are
the direct result. Neither fortune nor a blameless
9FOREWORD
life led, as it were, in an island of strict virtue in
the midst of a tumultuous sea of evil, spells
security.
Irrefutable evidence of a particular example of
underworld tyranny has come into my possession.
The victim's guilt was her reluctance to step from
virtue into the mire of evil which surrounded her.
Moreover she was intolerant of evil and sought to
oppose and destroy it. The case of her persecution
at the hands of her foes is complete. She belonged
to what is termed Society as did also some of the
other actors in this bewildering drama. The
world, social, financial, legal and, shall we say
also, the underworld, leaving to this word its
generally accepted literal meaning, knows them.
So many Jekylls and Hydes stalk about unsuspec
tingly in our midst !
From such an example I have been led to the
conclusion that, among others, three factors can
help one from being completely destroyed by the
combined forces of that '' underworld " : a flawless
life, independent means and real friends, all three
of which must be backed by a fearless determina
tion to fight evil on all points of the Masonic
compass.
In these days when apparently vice triumphs
and virtue must be penalized, it may be well for
all of us to fight the undertow by which our
children may be dragged under and must of
necessity perish. Vice rings and secret societies
1 0 OCCULT THEOCRASY
form but one vortex into which youth is drawn
and destroyed whilst the " good people ",
because of their ignorance, look on helplessly in
despair.
It is for their instruction that this book has been
written. Its compilation has taken several years
and, had it not been for the generous efforts of
one of my friends, Mme de Shishmareff, and of
several other persons, I would never have been
able to complete the task which I set out to
accomplish.
What must concern us all now is the protection
of decency or, in other words — Equal rights —
for such as are not vice adepts.
This book is not complete. It will never be
complete, but for the present it must remain as a
study of the root conditions which have led to
present day subversive upheavals and the over
throw of the principles of Christian civilization.
