GENERAL CONCLUSION
FOREWORD

We are actually witnessing an immense revolutionary
movement of which the first outward manifestation was
the French revolution of 1789.

This movement, which, sinee then, has spread all over
the world, has a much deeper significance than is gene-
rally supposed, and aims at the overthrow of civilization.

The fate of humanity is at stake, and it is of great
importance for us to know the causes of the movement
and ts consequences, or, in a word, to know where we are
golg,

But among the revolutionary forces there are two, which,
although more or less hidden and unknown to the public,
are none the less primordial.

These are Freemasonry and Judaism,

If is these two forces which we wish lo make better
known },

It must be clearly understood that what follows applies
to continental Freemasonry, the question of English
masonry being treated separately at the end.

1. The aim of this work is not to produce new unpublished
evidence but to set out and summarize the whole question
for a reader who is supposed to be ignorant of the subject.
FIRST PART

FREEMASONRY
INTRODUCTION TO THE MASONIC QUESTION

WHAT IS FREEMASONRY ?

It is difficult to answer this question in a few words
for the following reasons :

I, Irreemasonry is a secret society.

Tt considers it necessary to conceal everything con-
cerning it not only from outsiders but also from the
great majority of its own members. Only a few chosen
initiates know its real secrets. Its adepts collaborate
unconsciously towards an aim of which they are igno-
rant, led by invisible chiefs whose very existence they
sometimes do not even suspect.

II. Freemasonry has not an invariable and rigid form.

The work which it proposes to accomplish is so vast
that the task is divided, each section of Masonry having
its particular réle, which varies according to countries,
times and circumstances; so that if we ask several
Free-Masons for a definition of Freemasonry, they can
in good faith give us in Each case very different one.

ITI, Freemasonry conceals its true aim beneath vague
formulas.

It purposely never explains in precise fashion what it
16 THE SECRET POWERS BEHIND REVOLUTION

intends. By using vague formulas, those who direct
it have been able, little by little, and without too obvious
contradictions, to turn Masonry in the direction which
they desired.

All this, taken together, makes Freemasonry a very
complex problem. A part of the truth has however been
discovered by the following means :

1. By srupyiNG MASONIC DOCUMENTS.
(Publications, reports of meetings, masonic correspondence,
etc.).

This work is now facilitated in certain countries,
such as France, where Freemasonry believes itself strong
enough to throw off partly its mask.

2. By sTUDYING THE WORK OF FORMER MASONS.
(Such as Copin-Albancelli, Findel, Robison, etc.).

It has sometimes happened that a Freemason, having
caught a glimpse of the truth, has felt himself in cons-
cience bound to leave the association and to divulge
its dangers to the public. A very few persons also suc-
ceeded in insinuating themselves into the Lodges in
order to try to pierce the masonic mysteries. But these
are exceptional cases. Freemasonry has known what
measures to take for the avoidance of all indiscretions.

3. By MEANS OF IMPORTANT MASONIC DOCUMENTS THAT
HAVE FALLEN INTO THE HANDS OF CERTAIN GOVERN-
MENTS WHICH HAVE MADE THEM PUBLIC :

These cases occurred on three principal occasions :
a) In 1785 Lanze, a member of the masonic order of
the Bavarian « Illuminati », who was carrying secret
documents was struck by lightning at Ratisbon. When
