intelligent job of selection all the way. It is this person's responsibility to see that the batches of mail which come into the organization, which have been answered, are filed properly; and it is very far from a "just file it under G" job. You just have to. know what you're doing. You have to know those categories, you have to know what's up and so on. That person is looking at the files even more than the person in charge and if that person does not and will not spot, you see, a "hot prospect" "What is this file doing in there" she says as she picks it up: "Look at this. Here's a person who wrote in 1953 and said he'd like some auditing and I find no other letter". You see it is a selective job and she will at once turn such a file over to the person in charge of Central Files. In other words she should use this not just as "stuff the paper in" but actually has to do an intelligent job and then it works like a charm. She will also have the responsibility of keeping the files straight. In other words we get out a number of folders and we put them down in front of the auditors and what happens to them from there on? Auditors are going to shuffle them. So she actually should nag them a little about "Put it back together again". "Set it aside". "Put your carbon copy on top". There's a special way to handle them and she's actually the cop! The police officer with regard to reassembly of the files. You'll find out that auditors are very amenable to control. Now this person has to pull these together and reassemble the files, but while doing that discovers a great deal of data and information which must be turned over to the person in charge at once. You'll discover that if this is done well the files will stay straight and usable and if it's not done well they become unusable at a rate of speed you never dreamed of. So that is a very important post. The Registrar handles essentially-now let's go back over this again and look at these communication lines directly. What does the Registrar handle then? The Registrar isn't emanating, emanating, emanating. She handles the Applicant letters, which are general or otherwise and they come to her straight from invoicing. Many other prospect letters however may come to her and these she acknowledges where she deems it expedient or necessary to do so. Now the Registrar when she answers an applicant letter or answers a prospect letter, if she acknowledges one (she doesn't HAVE TO you see) makes two carbon copies of her answer. Now you've got to have very fast stenographic reaction on this. There are not many of these letters but they have to be done swiftly, it can't be put on a tape anywhere. That will have to be done by the Registrar's own department. It is up to her. That letter now which is answered, has two carbon copies. One of these copies is parked by the Registrar in one of these ABC file folders, a carbon of her letter-not the letter that came in-and the letter that came in will quite routinely be addressed to one of the staff auditors now. She clips her carbon to it and puts it in her OUT communication basket and the person in charge of CF (in charge CF is what we call it) takes these letters and puts them in the places where the auditors are going to be for the answers of the auditors. Those letters must be answered right away. Now the person said in the application letter "I am going to come in and I would like to come in sometime in July" and the Registrar said "Very well. We have an open date on the 16th July" and she books that and it is the Registrar's job to keep two books. One of these is for processing and one is for training. And each one of these books is divided into two categories, that is General (means: "I want some training" and "I'd like to come in in the next few months" and "I am coming in in July"). So she books that person and writes a formal letter and says she has. Now it's up to the auditor to write another kind of letter. He says "I'm glad you're coming in. I have turned your application over to the Registrar, I want to thank you for it, everything's going along here fine, the weather's horrible in London, etc. etc." Now he must answer that letter because it hasn't been answered in a friendly fashion at all, it has been answered formally by a person he's not familiar with, so the auditor must back it up. It isn't that the Registiar answers unfriendly letters, but this person's been in correspondence with one of the staff auditors and you'll find that they had better stay in correspondence with the people they're in correspondence with and that is a point the File Clerk is very concerned with-that the last letter on the top of the file was to Jones and that that file then belongs to Jones. Another letter has occurred in that file so you drag the file out and hand it to Jones with his pile and he writes. The reason for this is to give the person writing the letter the satisfaction of having done something and without that satisfaction they don't continue work with any enthusiasm at all. Every time they get somebody in the Director of Training or the Director of Processing or the Registrar grabs the letter and writes back and says "Aye, 251 yes, or no" and all of a sudden the auditor's walking down the hall one day and he sees Jones or Doakes. He got that preclear in and the Director of Processing says "Oh no, I got him in". You'd be surprised the fights that occur over this, so we're always careful to re-route a person's communications back to him again, but after they've been processed we open all communications which come to anybody in this organization which is an invasion of privacy the like of which I've never heard of, but we have to do it because the public writes to me and should write to book orders, writes Jack and should have written memberships; so we just open them all up and if it's a personal letter we say "Sorry" because they all look like personal letters. We used to try to be polite and we would hand around all these personal letters to everyone, the only trouble was however that we had just handed out all the organizational mail, which may or may not be answered by people who may not have the facilities to answer them and also it is not their department. The public is always playing a game of "Be enturbulated". They say "You don't have an organization, there isn't anybody to write to in the organization except Ron or Jack" or Bill who they write in the training department and say "Dear Bill, I'd sure like to have some processing". They meet the receptionist and they say "Can I have an appointment with Mr Hubbard"-so just to get over this sort of thing we open them all and channel them all and this is important because you will see letters in people's files that are to members of the organization and you don't take them out you just put them there. They belong right in the file, no matter who the letter's to it belongs in the file. Now we assemble this communication line so that the Registrar then does answer the applications and the Registrar at any time is capable of inspecting the work done because the auditors make carbon copies of their letters and those are filed back in the folder. The Registrar actually has to promote, look over, get ideas, square things around and keep the line running, interview the people, make the appointments and all that sort of thing. She shouldn't consider that her emanation is all being done for her. She must keep constantly on the back of and constantly supervise and look over the shoulders of, the staff auditors, because they'll write some of the wildest things you ever saw. No lack of trust-but they sit down there (they've just had a bad session with a preclear) and they say "Dear Bill, Hello" signed Jones. Honestly I've seen some wild letters, it's pretty hard to mock them up, but they get the idea and they finally get a friendly letter out. I Auditors are inclined to write about right where they are. That doesn't create any space. For instance the fellow says "I had a pc today and I had an awful tough time with him and so forth". Now a person out in the field doesn't consider that a communication because he needs processing because he's right where HE is, so you have him talk about him and then you make space. The Registrar has a great many duties and they're all very intricate, but the highest of these duties is the co-ordination of the CF Procurement setup. The person in charge is actually responsible for placing the bodies of the auditors, for getting the files out and all that sort of thing; but the Registrar is quite interested in the context of those letters and making sure that if she has something special to offer that the auditors are all informed and (this is very important) ensure that the proper enclosure pieces are made ready so that when the auditor sends his letter he can put an enclosure of the right sort in it. Those are: old "Certainties", info things, mimeograph stuffers, book lists, and you always try to send something in the letter. Now what they send is up to the Registrar and that has to be watched too because there is sometimes something sent out which is totally inappropriate. Washington in sending out some information booklets which they should have been shot for. These piles of literature around, this is the File Clerk's job and it is apportionate, has to be stacked. Now if you can see this as a whole and if you can see it functioning as its own communication lines and if those lines stay grooved and every point of the system is understood, the organization is suddenly relieved of the burden of a great deal of confusion. You don't have every stenographer in the place just doggedly typing the same type of letters. You don't have the turbulence of files being forwarded to the Director of Training, files being forwarded to the Director of Processing and then you never get them back. You don't have the Registrar keeping an independent file system. In other words you don't have dispersal. This is a very compact system, extremely compact, and it really is good. Its promotion is as good as the Registrar makes it, its effectiveness is as high as the Registrar makes it because that has to do with text and it is as efficient and effective as 252 the person in charge makes it because if the person in charge can't handle the auditors and can't get them to get their noses to the grindstone and so forth, they'll sit there and drink tea and smoke cigarettes-this should be discouraged you know, They're in there for a special purpose. This proportionate pay plan proposal by the way makes them anxious and eager to do this job. That is the extent of the Central Files Procurement system which department, under the Registrar, gives us a very definite strike on it. Now the reports that are made by the Registrar are as follows: Students, preclears, expected and booked for next week and in the future. Students for next week. Students for the future. Preclears for next week. Preclears for the future. And those are reported to, respectively, the Director of Training and the Director of Processing, and the copy of the report is sent to the Advisory Committee. As the Registrar is a memeber of the Advisory Committee however that is reported straight at the Committee. The Technical Director of course is the channel to the Director of Training and the Director of Processing and that is the comm terminal that the Registrar moves her information toward. She is reporting to the Technical Director. The reports made by the person in charge of files, CF, consist of Number of letters emanated by the auditors. And that's a very easy thing to count because you actually count the letters not the carbons or the folders and you count them as they go out to the mail. In other words the person in charge (it is only safe to have the person in charge take those to the mail when they're finished), is to record and report on the number of letters that go out. Additional report from CF in charge is: State of files, and Material needs. And those reports should be made quite regularly, weekly, to the Advisory Council and if the Registrar is anxious about it and so forth they can be made daily to the Registrar; but they must be forwarded through to the Advisory Council and that is not the responsibility of the Registrar but the responsibility of CF. Now we get on to Reports required from the File Clerk. She takes an individual count of the number of letters written by each individual auditor. She has a roster of auditors. 1) She checks them off for CF (she has a number of auditors who should be there). As she picks up the files she counts the number of letters. She is collecting the letters you see. Now she can have the auditors simply leave those letters alongside of his work, not collected-don't let them throw them over carelessly into a basket if you want to make your work easier-and then you simply count them and check them off against their names and so you get an individual count. That then is reported to your immediate superior, CF. That is really the extent of the entirety of the procurement system now being used in the United States and was formerly in fragments used in England and we have always used this system but we have never realized before that all we want the organization to do is to emanate those letters. There's one more thing, which is just this. There are many letters come to this organization. Some of them are business letters, bills, and so forth. There are many technical letters that come in. There are letters requesting things and buying things and so on. None of those letters even begin to approximate to the organization an importance compared to an applicant letter. And an applicant letter is established entirely by the volume of prospect letters. But this organization lives and breathes for its finance, its further research by these letters. You should understand this organization is not something that's just trying to make money, it's not. It's got a job to do and it must survive to do that job, and its survival is measured by applicant letters. They are pure gold and if this is not impressed upon the auditors who are handling them (this is an applicant letter, it's not a prospect letter any more, it's an applicant letter) you'll find there are only a few of these. There may be only twenty five in a good week. Now that's not very many letters and those are the only important letters in the entire flood coming in, and what monitors their existence-is the prospect letter. So we can consider those as classed together and any other material, typing, letters, incursion into the department, or anything else which interrupts the flow of prospect letter and the resultant applicant letter is to be immediately suppressed, thrown aside, disregarded and thrown away, completely refused by Central Files and procurement. 253 Now there is one other little point and that is "how do you handle a letter of complaint?" That is always handled by the Registrar and if the Registrar needs marines, by the Technical - Director. Every time you straighten out an area of complaint you make friends, so a complaint letter is not something that you just say "Oh well, somebody's finding fault with us again". We immediately get on to this and we straighten it out because we can always straighten them out today. It's easy to straighten them out. Somebody's been processed by some auditor in Northampshire and this auditor has done him and stolen his wife or he's done something like that-well that's the Technical Director's division and the Technical Division had better get on this and better write the preclear and get lots of correspondence going back and forth and we finally found out that the fellow threatened to shoot the auditor and it was entirely different but nevertheless we've finally straightened it out when we get through. We generally have them both in, give them a few hours of processing, send them away happy and square it around. That's our normal procedure with such things. We don't regard them lightly. Another is a technical letter which you know about and which we learned the hard way. We used to maintain a whole department which did nothing but answer technical letters. We found out that they only came from a few people and those people were woefully deficient in training so we wiped out the Technical Letter Department and nobody in the organization is permitted to answer a technical letter. They just must not answer them. They mustn't go on and on and on and on. And the Auditors have to be informed of this and the Registrar must know this. All you do when a person comes in and asks for technical information is one thing, and that is, you send him to come in for training. A technical letter is always answered by a letter which says "come in for training". You never disregard them you get them in for training and that is what is done with them uniformly. Memberships are handled by and are the exclusive property of, the File Clerk. The File Clerk also handles memberships. It will be found that memberships in active times, if the files are up to date and the stencils are well handled, will occupy from a third to a half of the File Clerk's time and that is a very routine procedure and people make so much work out of memberships and all you do is, you take in the membership and you fill out the card and you have a little letter or note of some sort and send it to the person. The reason memberships is hard to do is because everybody runs into memberships everything else. All Membership consists of is telling people to renew, and renewing, and making out cards and so forth and that's all it consists of. If there's anything else comes up on the line it is somewhere else. Now part of memberships is "change of address" and when your change of addresses come in you may have to out some new addressograph stencils, something of that order. Now the handling of the stencil machine which puts the envelopes to mail things, or stamps "Certainties" or does something of this character, is not the business of the membership clerk but belongs to Shipping. There is no machine on that. The person in charge of Shipping can come in and wind off a tape, or run a series of envelopes if you locate the machine and the stencil together, but when you ask the person who is handling files to also handle something as mechanical as a machine with its attendant ink and so forth, you muddy up your files and mess them up generally. Membership consists of two channels. It has two incoming baskets. One basket is memberships (which is just renewal or a new membership) and the other basket is change of address, and all changes of address and all memberships go to CF, and they have two baskets that sit side by side marked IN and two baskets that sit side by side marked OUT, and you park those things (there's a special arrangement of a table you can make with memberships which is very good). We worked this out and it did prove to be good. We take two baskets on the left of the table and then two baskets at the extreme right of the table and the one which is to the edge of the table is the membership basket and the one which is at the back of the table is the change of address basket and we have them "in" and "out" and then we put on that table and never disturb, all of the materials necessary to do a membership or a change of address and we just lay those materials out on the table. Stacks of paper and the membership cards and everything we have to make out and do and it's all on the table in plain sight in the order that they're used. Thereby we can take change of address and go straight through them and take change of memberships and get them through quickly so it doesn't take much time. Otherwise a membership clerk is always going "Oh, what do 1 254 do now?" What they will send you in the guise of memberships is fabulous. Somebody wants a book list, what is my discount, and all that sort of thing; they have nothing to do with memberships but come under business administration. If you can tell people brutally that they are off-line when they try to disturb the membership chain you'll find memberships don't occupy very much time. But if everything comes in on the line that appertains to members, including the policy that the Association Secretary should make, which they try to throw away, why then you have a mess. The reason why memberships belong to CF is because change of address otherwise splits and you have two departments of change of address, so you just change all addresses. Now when you get a change of address you change it in the file. You always put the latest address on top. By the way, the way a file is kept may be important. You file with the earliest date at the bottom, progressing towards the latest date at the top and when the file is dragged out, held in the left hand and opened you will find your left thumb on the last communication, therefore they are filed with, as you face the file in the drawer, with the top of the letter on the right and the bottom of the letter on your left. Now make sure you've got that. The redistribution of files, by the way, is simply done straight into the drawer you see; but "hot prospects" that look warm will very often have to be indicated by the auditors themselves so they have to be in front of us; and they are put in the "hot prospect" file and not back in the drawers. If you have an ABCD set of stationery boxes and park them on top of the files stuff coming in to be filed, first filed into these ABCD categories and then re-filed into the drawers which are now open will save you a lot of clutter and running back and forth. In other words these ABCD boxes are a "pre-file". I think that is a very thorough run-down now on CF and Procurement. It's really CF Procurement and Memberships and when you tack Memberships onto that you have everything. The question of "how do we identify a member in the file system" is served by checking the membership stencils and lists against Central Files and entering them into the files. This could be as an innovation additionally flash marked on the file, so that could have another colour which doesn't really give us another category by the way, it's a flash mark. You'd better put a flash mark on all those that are members. You'll have to dig them out of the membership file. An additional point-"hot" files should additionally be identified very easily or they would be put back in Central Files. This is a duty of the File Clerk. Files are not to be handed out to members of the organization of whatever level, but such people as wish information from files, may come down and inspect the files in CF but may not remove them from the vicinity. The way an applicant letter is developed: First an enquiry or a book order arrives. The book order goes into CF and is answered right away and a nice letter is written to him asking how he's getting along and if there's anything that he would like to know further about it. The enquirer is sent an information package by Shipping and you develop then into the succeeding categories. If Shipping falls down and doesn't have the facility to, or isn't able to send out these enquiry packets, straight away as soon as such a letter shows up ("I'm interested in the subject"-doesn't say whether he's read anything) you don't get very far. That info packet by the way must stress only ONE THING, and that is "buy these books"-that's all you tell him to do, buy a book. The next point on this is that you try to sell each category the next category and that is how that is developed. L.

I HASI POLICY LETTER OF 27 SEPTEMBER 1957 All Hats Washington & London QUOTING PRICES It has come to my attention that we have several times dismayed people on training or processing on their first contact with Scientology by quoting them high prices for training and processing. Anyone doing this mistakes our basic mission, which is not the charging of high prices, but the dissemination of Scientology to the end goal of bringing a newer and better culture to Earth. Indeed we dismay even a financial goal by quoting high prices at once to newcomers. A better and more workable procedure is to follow the elementary lines with new people-have them read a book. Have them come in to a PE Course. Have them attend a Group Intensive. Get them on an HAS Course. The thing to do is to get them to do something about us or with us. The rest will follow. Our goals in the long run or even a financial goal are best answered by the principle of gradient scales and by the stable datum of "bodies in the shop". Bring them in easy. Get lots of bodies in the shop. The rest follows. This does not, of course, apply to selling people courses and three-week intensives for high prices when they're sure of what they're buying. If they're sure they'll buy. Best, LRH:md.rs.rd Copyright (c) 1957 L. RON HUBBARD by L. Ron Hubbard ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 256 HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE 37 Fitzroy Street, London W. I (Issued at Washington D.C.) HCO POLICY LETTER OF 2 OCTOBER 195 8 Worldwide Distribution and Application SALE AND CONDUCT OF ACADEMY COURSES (Refer to HCO Policy Letter of I October 1958) As of October 15, 1958, effective date, the circumstances and enrollment procedures of courses are changed worldwide. While the administration must yet be set up the fact and advertisements exist as of October 15, 1958. Even if it isn't done don't put anybody on wait while we scramble. Sign them up and somehow deliver. Basically: A student may enroll for a course as before but he must understand it will require a year from enrollment date to get his certificate because of Extension Work. We then have two phases of training: Extension Work done at home, and Class work done at the Academy. His course in the Academy is still 8 weeks for HCA/HPA, London, 5 weeks for HCS/BScn, London, 6 weeks for HGS/DScn, London. He may do these weeks at once but he has other work to do as well. He is enrolled for a one-year course in each certificate status. He should not be discouraged by confronting him with this. It does not matter when he takes his time in the Academy so long as he does it. There are written work, exercises and reports on cases to be done before his final exam. It has always taken a year, you can say, to get any actual certificate. We are just now making a reality of it. He can audit people or do anything else he wants, but the time is one year from enrollment to certificate in any grade. He could take all Academy work for all three grades in 5 months all jammed up but he'll still have to complete his first year to get his first certificate. This is no gyp school. It takes three years to get the top rating and more time is spent on the mind and thetan in those three years than in 15 years of psychology or psychiatry. We're taking over the fields of the mind and spirit on Earth. Our people have to be good. Any applicant will agree to that. EXTENSION COURSES Anyone may enroll in an Academy course to HCA/HPA for L2.0.0 or $5.00. He has to buy his texts (we give away no more texts after October 15, 1958 and allow only membership discount if he is a member). The enrollment is for one year. Any answer to his enrollment is to send him C.O.D. (permission to do so must be on the blank he sends in-blank to be in Certainty) a "Dianetics: Modern Science of Mental Health", hard cover. (Blank must also be able to say he already has it if he does.) He is sent directly by first-class mail his first lessons. Even if he has been in Academy he does these. They are printed lessons he has to fill out. He furnishes the envelopes and stamps. The lessons are uniformly simple. One is due back each week. The page is perforated at the bottom so a lower strip may be torn off by the Extension Course Director, written on and returned by first-class mail in an envelope. The student gets a nudging card if he fails to send in a lesson. These lessons are a chapter by chapter coverage of Dianetics: Modem Science of Mental Health only. They require mainly agreement. The student can go no further than Dianetics: Modern Science of Mental Health data (no practice) when we find it necessary to bring him in for his 8 weeks (preferable) or at least a Comm Course. Given his Comm Course, his next lessons still apply to Dianetics: Modern Science of Mental Health but now they are auditing practice lessons. We make him find locks, secondaries, engrams in several people. Then we bring him back for more training or (if he took his 8 weeks) we have him audit things out of people-locks, engrams, secondaries. We have additional lessons covering the remaining texts. The Addressograph Section takes these students' names and addresses and keeps the list up to date. Sets of envelopes, cards for file for lessons (that can be used as postal cards but are not stamped) for each week are run off and refiled as lessons appear from student (leaving the delinquents to be reminded by simply mailing the card). The whole of this or any extension course is crisp comm line and accurate 257 administration. It is simple if it is prompt and neat. The whole project can be nicely ruined by poor administration on this. The quality of lessons should be good but are secondary to good thorough administration. People would always rather get a new theory or a dizzy plan rather than face these vital pieces of Mest and a systematic handling of them. Cards and file drawers- are obviously vicious. A plan of the course and how to do it is sent with the enrollment reply, plus an enrollment card he can show his friends to explain why he wants to practice on them. Similar texts and enrollment measures are taken for the HCS/BScn course, and the HGS/DScn. The texts for each of these courses are listed in HCO Policy Letter of October 1, 1958. No other textual or factual material is to be used and no further course booklets or pamphlets are necessary. What is necessary: Lesson tablets, in glued-together sheets like a writing tablet, 25 lessons to a tablet, each sheet being its own lesson. The sheet is perforated across the last 5th of the page. The student's name, current address, course, and answers, are all written by the student. The Extension Course Director writes any comment or grade on the bottom slip, tears it off and sends it back to the student. If no lesson came, a card goes to student reminding him. When it comes time for the student to come in for his course he comes in, pays for the week or weeks he takes, goes home, gets more work to do, is finally examined (either at home or at Academy [two different exams)) and when he passes he promptly gets his certificate. This is true for all three courses. Certainty must at once carry ads and continue to carry ads for "Academy Enrollmentone year, do work at Academy and at home-Enroll now, L2.0.0, receive your first lessons." An enrollment blank, that with L 2.0.0 enrolls him must always be part of the ad. The idea of field training plus Academy training for a certificate and the fact of 3 years of training to the top will appeal. Academy courses must be carefully geared to HCO Policy Letter of October 1, 1958. This scramble to "get the newest learned first" is giving us training disasters. Of course, the student would prefer facing a thought or theory or a quick think process to facing real live engrams, secondaries, and banks. So we don't train them well. They're not like 1950 Dianetic auditors-they're flinching these days. And who said you couldn't clear people by running engrams? You couldn't if you had no TRs and therefore ragged auditing and ARC breaks. Any time you write or say Dianetics today, define it-"Dianeties, that part of Scientology which stresses mental anatomy." That swings people into Scientology before they think about it. They are not then surprised to hear from the Academy of Scientology about Dianetics. "A minister has to know mental anatomy before he can know the spirit," "The brain forms no part of the study of Dianetics," are two more lines that must be gotten about even if only as bottom lines on a Certainty or Ability page. This programme of 3 years training by 1 year stages is now begun. We'll just have to commit ourselves to it and cope with it and have it wheeling before the paper-back Dianetics: Modern Science of Mental Health gets in the drugstores next spring. So here we go. Who activates all this? Why, you do, of course. L. RON HUBBARD LRH:md.rs.rd 258 HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE .

RON HUBBARD HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE 37 Fitzroy Street, London W.1 HCO POLICY LETTER OF 29 MARCH 1960 Reissued in Sthil CenOCon HGC AND ACADEMY PRICES FOR MINORS (Cancels and replaces HCO Policy Letter of 27 October 1959) The following two categories of minors are instituted for Academies: I . A minor below the age of eleven (11) is not eligible for training at the Academy except by special permission of LRH. 2. A minor, to qualify for training at the Academy, must have reached his/her eleventh (11th) birthday and not have reached his/her eighteenth (I8th) birthday. The minor's training fee for the HPA and B.Scn. (HCA and ECS) courses shall be two thirds of the adult fee, whatever fee is in force. The reason for disallowing minors below the age of I I to attend the Academy is that such beings are, usually, still in need of special attention that would normally tend to create a situation of specialized care that would consume too much of the instructor's time. HGC PRICES FOR MINORS HGCs may accept a child of any age for processing (except psychos as per present policy). Below the age of 14 years, a child will be charged full price at HGCs. They are pretty difficult to audit, so should be charged as much as grown-ups, unless there has been confirmation on this from the Executive Director to do otherwise. SPECIAL CATEGORY Between the ages of 14 and 18, minors will be charged two thirds of the HGC processing prices. (After the age of 14 children are easier to handle, and this price reduction is an encouragement to teen-agers to get processing.) In the case of minors directly related to Certificated Auditors (their immediate family), the current discounts apply as before. LRH:js.gh.rd Peter Hemery Copyright (c) 1960 HCO Secretary WW by L.

No pc or student may be sent to D of P or D of T without having been signed up fully by PrR. D of P and D of T are not selling personnel. D of P may increase required hours before technical acceptance of pc. In which case pc is returned to PrR for re-signing. D of T may reject a student for health or security reasons, at which time PrR must resign for adequate processing. People with a Communist or subversive record or who are studying Scientology for use in other healing fields-psychology, medicine, psychiatry, psychoanalysis, Christian Science, may not be accepted for training. The D of T always does a security check particularly of above points before accepting a student. LETTER REG-BODY REG In Orgs where there are two registrars or more, there must be a Body Registrar and a Letter Registrar. The Body Registrar does not write letters, answer letters or engage in letter procurement except in times of slack when Body Registrar writes letters on an outflow basis only-never answers replies. This ceases the moment there are bodies coming in. Body Reg logs all sign-ups, and handles paper work and finance regarding sign-ups, and keeps the records, but this again may not stop the body line. With the Body Reg interviews of people, in person or by phone, come first, records second. With the Letter Reg answers come first, followed by originated letters and info packets. Letter Reg keeps Body Reg informed of who is expected in and sees that Body Reg has the file. Body Reg has reception and control of reception. TYPISTS Letter Reg lines have been blocked by lack of typists. Inadequate typist facilities are very poor economy. Typists type Answer tapes or records before origin tapes or records. OUTFLOW If outflow or origin is down because Answer volume is up, hire an assistant Letter Reg. DIR PR R Where Dir PrR is also Letter Reg or Body Reg, he or she may not cross up the posts in violation of the above. If this combo is necessary it is better for the Assn Sec to be Dir PrR. Dir PrR is sometimes ineffective on pure promotion. This stems from Dir PrR combining with Letter Reg or Body Reg. If there is a Dir PrR, he or she should be free to keep the lines flowing and to do broad promotion. If the Dir PrR is too tied down by Body Reg or Letter Reg type duties, it is better to change the title to Body Reg or Letter Reg and let the Assn Sec do Dir PrR assisted by HCO. An overworked (on Bodies and Letters) Dir of PrR creates a camouflaged hole. It's better to keep in view that supervision of PrR and general promotion do not become neglected. By leaving the post open Assn Sec and HCO Sec can do supervision and general promotion. GENERAL PrR colliding as it does with the public, easily goes askew. Watch it weekly. LRH:js.rd L.

It is of interest to all other Orgs. LETTER REGISTRAR DEPT The system is very concise. Central Files contains folders of persons who have bought something. Not idle lists. CF folders contain names of persons active in the. last three years, who wrote to us or bought something. Addressograph is the card file system of CF, and Addresso plates are tabbed and reflect CF exactly without further card files. Addresso gives Letter Reg card files from the Addresso plates. Old Dianeticist list and correspondence are valuable and remain intact. This list should receive one mailing per year. Ltr Reg and typists have their own office. CF and Addresso have their own office. These should be adjacent. Your test office on the first floor of 1812 can be given to Accounts. Ltr Reg and typists can be put in old Accts office. Excess plate cabinets go in waste space in the basement of 18 10. You must have: I . Letter Registrar. 2. Typist or typists. 3. CF Promotion Liaison. 4. CF-in-Charge. 5. Address Clerk. You need a crash programme done by other than these to sort out CF folders and activate them, make Address exactly tally with CF folders active, so Addresso becomes CF index. Get a CF that goes back to mid-year 1959. Keep inactive files handy so person's file can be activated if he writes in. Restore the system of routing invoices to Address and CF, checking for plate and making one if not there. The routine precision clerical actions are all shown to be missing here. And this is why there is low income, in addition to poor technology in the past. The situation looks pretty grim unless the whole of the Letter Reg's department is brought into full order and action. It is badly understaffed. This is an unwise way to save units. Please get it going. LRH:sf.rd L. RON HUBBARD Copyright (c) 1962 by L.

HCO POLICY LETTER OF 30 AUGUST, AD 12 CenOCon GENERAL FORM OF RELEASE CONTRACT The following form is applicable for the preparation of all release contracts and should be put into effect as soon as feasible. All old release contract forms should not be used. The general tenor of the contract states that the Central Organization takes full responsibility for clearing the individual to the state of "first goal clear" by reason of his enrolment in the HGC. The person enrolling undertakes on his behalf to pay for processing delivered as per usual arrangements up to such time as he has attained the validated state of "first goal clear" as verified by HCO. The contract makes no allowance for time spent in the HGC, gives no commitments or guarantee of actually attaining the state of clear, and does not in any way offer any inducement to the individual by way of special handling or treatment, but only states as above that the central organization takes full responsibility for processing a person up to the state of "first goal clear." The individual on his behalf undertakes to continue forward to. this state at such times and periods as is possible for him to make himself available for processing, and at his cost and expense. The contract particularly stipulates that the individual must co-operate in this activity to the best of his ability and must not place obstacles in the way of attaining this desirable end, and will not obtain processing from other quarters unless by special permission by the Director of Processing of the HGC, the Association Secretary of the organization, the HCO Area Secretary, and the Continental Executive Secretary. The Central Organization on its behalf will undertake to make the processing as feasible, as rapid as is compatible with the case level of the individual, and will give what advices and assistances as are necessary to make the activity as free from difficulty as is also compatible with this undertaking, but that in the case of any dispute as to this matter, the directions of the Director of Processing shall be complied with. The above is the general form of the contract and legal phraseology and other materials should be as far as possible omitted from this particular document, which I am sure will be found adequately binding. This form is to be accompanied by a contract which states that during the coming year the organization, in return for receiving the signed release form, undertakes to furnish processing to the individual at current and existing rates, and no increase, but that the offer is valid only from the date of the offering letter. The undertaking of this contract and signature on the waiver is understood to cancel all earlier contractual hours of processing, but not to cancel any existing debts. Unless returned within thirty days of receipt, the waiver has no value. The contract also states that any person so signing will not have any rates raised on him by reason of the probable increase in cost of auditing in view of clearing success, and extended training requirements of auditors. The above waiver and contract should be mailed at once to all those persons who were written to and told the Central Organization had them on their clearing list approximately two years ago, or in those areas where no such letter was sent. This document should be forwarded to all those people on the mailing list at once. This in effect is a significant portion of the clearing programme of Central Organizations for Continental Areas.

It is no longer under the Org/Assn Sec who will specialize in delivery. Promreg Department includes the HCO Communicator, who now becomes the Communications Officer. The Dept includes reception, all means of communication, the Comm Centre, Org Board, CF and Address, mail and mailing and any other purely PROMOTIONAL- COMMUNICATION Function. The Dept is under the Director of Promreg, just below HCO Area Secretary. A full design of the Department will be forwarded. Meanwhile DON'T DROP ANY EXISTING LINES OR TERMINALS THAT WORK. DON'T AT ONCE MOVE ANY DESKS, FILES OR EQUIPMENT. 266 Work, out and shift invoice over to Accounts as soon as possible. We don't have any accounting in Division 1. Just let the matter be posted on the Org Board with the other changes of the board and let things gradually sort out. Then after a while you may wish to change some locations, etc, when you see how it all works. However, as of NOW all the above functions are HCO Division Dept Promreg. With this shift Registrars become Promotional Personnel with full concentration on getting in individuals for training and processing at a regular frequency and removing barriers to their coming in and distractions. Registrars now or later may not discuss finance as they are no longer allied to that Department. Their whole task is to fill the place up with bodies fast and often and repeatedly who want training and processing and to make them want it. Division 2 (Training and Processing) may not caution or influence Promreg regarding volume. Registrars get bodies into the place and promote Scientology. They must not involve themselves as they have in letters or interviews with money or even bring the subject up. That is an Accounts function. It is up to Accounts in Division 3 to get things paid for. It is up to Division 2 to accept bodies and train and process them. Registration is now Division 1. The Registrar can't promise that Division 3 will waive payment or Division 2 will accept. All a Registrar is permitted to do is flood the place with bodies, get people scheduled for their training and processing at least a year in advance and fatten up that schedule also even when it looks full. PROMOTION consists of getting names and addresses and contacting them and offering service to get them in. The more names, the more contacts, the more people. That's the whole story. Knock off filling the place up with psychos attracted by our "mental curing". Two hours spent interviewing some pet psycho could dig up a hundred new names. Look for new people and ease off the old moth-eaten hangers on. Don't eat up old lists only. The old clientele will still come in. You get new names! And persuade them to get trained and processed! Get some Scientologists in the place. Get the people in that our promotion is aimed for. The able. Never talk rates. Just talk Scientology. That's what we promote. We don't promote money troubles. Sell Grades in intensives. "Buy enough to attain Grade 0." Buy "Grade 11". You know. Look over pc grades. They really work in promotion. Dept Promreg is in a continuous Crash Programme of mailings, letters out, getting new lists and names, around and around. Welcome aboard to HCO, Registrars, CF and Address and typists.

Last on the list is any person who seeks auditing as a favour "to demonstrate to others what it can do" or "because of importance as a person". The auditing of someone just because the result would "prove" something or other or because the person has money or power and might donate, by firm policy since 1950, has been relegated to the "circular file" (the waste basket). Giving auditing away to such persons or their friends or children or psychotic brother in the asylum is in fact forbidden' Giving preference in scheduling to such persons is governed, when for pay, entirely by the Scale of Preference. Such bids are a snare and a delusion; it sounds good; it doesn't work out. Mr. Big takes his place in line with Mr. Little, and the Scale of Preference alone applies. The person who has to be audited AT ONCE for desperate reasons is also governed only by the Scale of Preference. The person who will only be audited by a certain or special auditor is also governed entirely by the Scale of Preference (See A). SCALE OF PREFERENCE Assignment of Auditor and Preferential Scheduling is governed as follows: A. Best Available Auditors, earliest possible commencement" PCs Paying full rate Cash in Advance with the longest consecutive auditing period purchased. Where two pcs have to be chosen between for the best auditor, the one who has purchased the most auditing in consecutive periods is given the best auditor at the earliest moment. (It is obvious that to get a special auditor one should pay full public rate in cash even when entitled to Professional Rate. Otherwise there may be no pc requested auditor assignments. Buying additional auditing or offering a specified donation in addition to the full rate as per A can also influence the assignment of a requested auditor. The auditor does not have to accept.) B. Skilled auditor (but not specially requested auditor), early commencement; Full rate pcs whose credit has proven excellent and prompt by past experience. C. Good auditor, early commencement; Pcs paying cash in advance professional rate. D. Auditor staff available scheduling; Full public rate pcs with 50% deposit and unknown or not established credit. E. Interne Auditor and any scheduling convenient to org; Full public rate pcs requiring up to 75% credit, credit unknown. F. Any Interne Auditor, and any scheduling convenient to org; Professional rate requiring credit, G. Any student, any scheduling convenient to org; Total credit at any rate, credit unknown. H. Students who need practice, cases not supervised except for student check sheet in Examinations, scheduled randomly or by waiting list, charity or lies on full credit of a pcs unknown nature. 268 In scheduling there is also the problem of matching Interne Auditors in pairs so they can crack their own cases. This is normally done by Case Parity. Cases more or less the same in state of case should be matched up. Auditors who goof seriously in handling specially assigned processes in HGCs or Case Cracking Sections and are removed from active auditing because of it as dangerous, are normally paired with the last one who goofed and they are assigned as a co-audit team and they are permitted to slug it out, getting a better reality on goofs and their cases in shape as well. This is not disciplinary assignment. It is prevention of case damage to others, both by giving them a reality and by advancing their cases. Their folders are carefully watched by auditing supervisors for false entries on auditing reports. ------------- The whole theory of the above is not Cash. It will be found that those who will pay were the most able to begin with and have the greatest value to others. Their worth as persons is greater. Thus good, swift auditing brings up even this value. I have never thanked myself for giving any concessions on fees or scheduling not based on the above. I can say with complete case histories that giving free service to those who demanded it or sought it has never resulted in any useful gain for Scientology. On the contrary some of our biggest headaches administrationally come from those who continually sought free courses and free auditing. In the case of award auditing or training it is a different matter. Here it was worked for and deserved before the fact. The Registrar is never faced with such persons as awards are given staff and staff has staff staff auditors. The "the world owes me a living" preclear (or student) is a candidate for the Better Dead Club. There were two branches of this Club, by the way-Better Dead for their own sakes and Better Dead for the sake of others. Demands by individuals for free service on any pretext should be given a light, airy laugh. It doesn't do anybody any good, often not even the person who received it. Real charity cases who never pay are actually hard to find. In Charity Auditing one must always give them a chance to pay. A Registrar's matter of fact attitude about paying for auditing or training is a valuable asset. Giving the person a problem about how and what they'll pay is poor Registraring. Don't make them choose about paying in full or not paying in full. Just tell them "Go to the Accounts Cashier". An evil laugh when they advance the idea of some tiny down payment on auditing and a remark, "Well, that would put you on the waiting list and give you a new student," might be very effective. Printing up the above preference scale for presentation to falterers on payment might be effective, Accounts must always give Scheduling Personnel a copy of the invoice. Accounts must mark the Invoice clearly as per the above preference scale. Scheduling may only be done by scheduling personnel and must be done in accordance with the above Scale of Preference, and the prospective preclear already in the office (not on promotion lines) should be informed that the above scale exists.

Some cases are more difficult than others and give auditors more trouble. A case can be sufficiently enturbulative that an auditor can be diverted from his task and commit minor errors resulting in an apparent loss of time. The more resistive case also causes a D of P to fumble on occasion. The auditors and case supervisors try their best and do the best possible under the circumstances. To claim a pc "lost time" in auditing because of an error in choosing processes or having to reflatten one, is highly fallacious. The usual pc does not lose such time under the same auditors and D of Ps. We do our job as best we possibly can and when we know more we do more. We are already the only agency anywhere that can increase IQ and resolve human problems. We handle a living thing-life. We do our best. Sometimes a pc throws us a curve with a rough case, bad between session behaviour, roughing up auditors and D of Ps. It is natural that goofs occur on such cases. We retrain auditors who are routinely erring and we do all we can to ensure good case gains. We don't permit squirreling. Our Ethics are stronger than any other organization's. Pcs who claim "lost time" or ask for rebates of part of their auditing time for any reason except no auditing whatever (meaning no session of any kind, no auditor or pc in the room) should be turned over to Ethics. They are rough cases and tend to be suppressive. We are selling hours of auditing and what that is is for us to judge. Further, no auditor may rebate any part of a pc's fee personally or be made to rebate it, as to do so is to shatter any possibility of delivering auditing at all. Auditing is already the cheapest form of treatment there is. It is cheaper without any argument in favour of time taken to get a result-that is bonus. Medicos, surgeons, psychiatrists, psycho-analysts charge the Moon for nothing or even for damage. We are not in their line of business. But fees can be compared. It is nothing for a psycho-analyst to charge L9,000 for a course of treatment! A US surgeon thinks nothing of a $5,000 bill. The Mayo Clinic doesn't think twice to send a bill for $35,000 or more to the widow of their patient. The government pays in some countries. And that too is high. By rights our minimum fee for a 25 Hour Intensive should be L 250 or in the US $820. If we only processed, we would have to charge that. It takes several people to deliver real auditing to a preclear. The field auditor usually goes broke even on high fees. He just doesn't pay out the salary needed to give the pc proper service. How much is a man's life worth to him? How much is it worth not to die at all? I'm afraid it has no price tag. We are selling actual salvage from Death itself. Rebate. How silly. The person was lucky we were around at all and took an interest. We don't have to do anything for anybody. Remember that. We can lose interest in certain people, too, you know. No org has to accept anyone it doesn't want to for training or processing. No Auditor has to accept a pc he doesn't honestly want to help. No Supervisor has to train any student he doesn't want to train. We sell pearls for pennies already. L. RON HUBBARD LRH:mh.rd Copyright (c) 1965 by L.

All such waivers must include a statement that the person is there on his or her own determinism and that the person has no record of being committed in an institution or has a criminal record for felony. Persons with such commitments or records should be referred to a field auditor near their home and refused training or processing at the organization. Persons suspected of purely medical illness should be referred to a doctor for competent treatment if such a doctor or treatment exists. Minors must have their parents or guardians sign the waiver and any note for time payments. Known trouble sources as per recent HCO Policy Letter, all of which remains in force, should be required to straighten up their lives before enrolling or signing up for processing or should be forthrightly refused. Anyone objecting to an E-Meter check should be refused entrance. Thus by keeping the legal aspects straight you will be able to help the many and not be messed up by a few. For a very few such people (21 to be exact) were the sole sources of grief in the 1950 boom.

It is to be fully understood that this course applies only to solo audit and gives no auditor certificate but only a grade of Release certificate when complete. A person taking this course is not to audit others above any auditor class the student actually holds. It is further to be fully understood that any trouble the solo auditor gets into must be resolved by a proper Class VI auditor in an organization and that such assistance is at the student's own expense and is not part of the offered courses. Such help is called A SOLO AUDITOR ASSIST and is charged at existing auditor rates by the whole hour for all hours and any part of an hour. Such SOLO AUDITOR ASSISTS are normally given by the QUALIFICATIONS DIVISION. They consist of by-passed charge assessments using standard lists, track analysis to find where the solo auditor has gotten to and case analysis to discover what is wrong. They also include rehabilitation of a release state overrun. They do not consist of auditing the materials for the grade. SOLO AUDIT COURSE GRADE VI Prerequisite: Grade V Release. Full and unqualified Ethics Clearance. This course consists of the following: The parts of life-thetan, body, mind, physical universe, engrams. Vocabulary for parts of the E-Meter. Elementary E-Metering. Elementary Solo Auditing on PTPs, etc. Keeping an Auditor's Report. The history of Dianetics and Scientology. Vocabulary for the bank as used in the film The Pattern of the Bank. The film The Pattern of the Bank and any other pertinent film with full checkouts on its data (not just viewed). Whole track data. R6 EW technology. Solo Auditing to Grade VI Release. Release Certification when attained. 276 When this course is completed, the Grade VI Release is eligible to enroll on the Saint Hill Clearing Course on a solo audit basis for Grade VII Clear. No other certificate will be given than a grade certificate. And the person is given no right to audit others. But the person may attain Clear by this route. (Note: This is the non-professional route specified in the earlier Gradation programmes.) ARRANGEMENTS The Solo Audit Course Grade VI will be taught in the Technical Division Department of Training Saint Hill. It will be called Unit E-One and will be handled by the E-Unit Course Supervisor who, in case of numbers, may have an E-One Supervisor under him to handle this course. This course absorbs the R6 EW Short Course taught to org executives who were not properly classed for the Saint Hill Course. All students of the R6 EW Short Course are transferred to the Solo Audit Course, the materials being similar. The course has already been piloted and was found to be successful. This course in no way supplants the Saint Hill Special Briefing Course or Academy Courses 0-IV and the student is warned that the course is designed to make him or her only a solo auditor and in no way prepares one to audit others or handle others with Scientology and that if any certification or Classification or full understanding of technology is required the student of the Solo Audit Course will have to begin with lower classification training. It is however admitted that a Grade VI Release would have little trouble with the lower levels of training and that a Clear would have no trouble at all. SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS Where a person has gone Grade VI Release by reason of earlier auditing on goals as happened occasionally prior to 1965 (they had gone up through all grades unknowingly and these were rehabilitated after the fact) the student yet must successfully complete the Solo Audit Course in order to qualify for the Clearing Course and in no case will anyone be enrolled on the Clearing Course unless the Solo Audit Course has been passed. Persons enrolled on the Saint Hill Special Briefing Course take a longer professional version of the Solo Audit Course as part of their training and as covered by their enrollment fee at this time. The price of the Solo Audit Course is L 275. An additional fee of L275 is required for the Clearing Course. An HCA certificate from an Academy is required to enroll on the Saint Hill Special Briefing Course. L. RON HUBBARD LRH:ml.rd Copyright (c) 1965 by L.

Discounts are not additive on courses and processing. A person does not get a 50% discount as a student and then 50% of that as a staff member. Only one discount counts at a time. Also one cannot have a 50% discount as a student or staff member and then 20% more as a Life Member. The person receives only one discount on courses and processing. It may however be the largest single discount to which he is entitled. At Saint Hill Membership discounts count only on sales items such as books, insignia, meters. But if a student discount also exists it is not added to. The largest single discount only is given. DEBIT INVOICES Student 'and pcs may not be extended into unpaid courses or hours of processing by debit invoice. When a person's paid processing is consumed, and he requires more lie or she pays for it before being given more. ORG CREDIT Only credit for the Interneship was given to some orgs. No other courses or intensives are given for credit to org staff from other orgs. The Org Executive Course is awarded occasionally by SEC ED. Otherwise it is paid for. When an org has been given special credit for a certain Saint Hill service it is in writing and specifically arranged by the Executive Director beforehand. Unless this evidence is presented no org gets any credit. CREDIT PROCESSING No further credit pcs, in whole or in part, will be accepted at Saint Hill, excepting only those specifically promised credit in writing or booked as credit pcs prior to this date. As with courses, processing is paid in full in advance. Further processing must also be paid in full in advance. 278 QUAL CREDIT Qualifications (Review) actions may be signed up for credit but only to the sum of L10. No certificates or awards are issued until a person has an Accounts Clearance marked paid in full at Saint Hill. COURSE CREDIT Credit for courses has never been permitted at Saint Hill. No Saint Hill course may be had on any credit, part or full. This applies to the SHSBC, the Solo Audit Course and the Clearing Course. REASON No organization can exist extending credit in vast quantities and the policy at Saint Hill has always been no credit. Therefore anyone extending credit at Saint Hill for Courses or the HGC Service after this date is liable to an Ethics charge of a crime as it is detrimental to the survival of this organization no matter what arrangements are made. Aside from material reasons when we give credit service-training and processingwe deny full attention to those who are paying. Thus we cannot but give poorer service all around if we give credit service. Our purpose in this is to keep service quality at Saint Hill very very high. To do that we have to provide that service. When we give credit, we spread ourselves too thin for quality. L. RON HUBBARD LRH:ml.rd Copyright (c) 1966 by L.

A separate contract shall exist for each item signed up for, including all processing and training. The contract covers what is actually being paid for. A copy of the contract shall be handed cashier who is to verify its accuracy and receive the money for service and who is then to file this copy. The contract shall specifically note all discounts being allowed and if any allowed, the status of the person signing up shall be noted on the contract. 2.

Where a person is not currently a member he shall be signed up for membership by the Registrar and this shall be paid at the time the other sign up is paid for. 3. The Cashier in issuing an invoice copy for any different type of membership or service than the pc or student now has, shall issue a card directing the person to Certs and Awards. 4. Certs and Awards, to which the student or pc or staff member is so routed shall issue, after examination of the invoice, a badge. These badges are plastic transparent covers with a pin as used in Congresses. They are flash-marked with a card on them as follows: (a) SHSBC Student RED (b) Preclear BLUE (c) Solo Audit Student GREEN The person's name and the status is marked on each card and signed by Certs and Awards. The person is told to wear it at all times when around the org. Certs and Awards issues the Membership card, if purchased, at the same time. 5. Staff members, on being employed, are to receive badges from Certs and Awards as follows: (A) Temporary Staff Member - Plastic Badge (GREY) marked "Temporary Staff Member" with the person's name.

This Grade is no longer to be omitted by those who wish to enrol on the Clearing Course. It is now required that all students achieve Grade VA Release as well as Grade V before they may terminate from the Saint Hill Special Briefing Course. It is also a requisite that all students enrolling on the Solo Course be Grade V and Grade VA Release. The gradient from Grade V to Solo Auditing and then the Clearing Course will then be much smoother and easier. L. RON HUBBARD Founder LRH:lb-r.cden Copyright (c) 1966 by L.

Because Straight Wire, Secondaries and Engrams are now a must for raw meat, (HCOB 16 Jan 68) organizations will sell these three as a package costing the same as a Grade. It can be well promoted as being three for the price of one, since each is run to a release point. It can also be stressed that modern tech has reduced the time considerably from the "hundreds of hours" it used to take. The Org must remember, however, that this in no way enters us into the field of the insane or the field of healing. (See HCO PL 2 Aug 66). Anyone violating this must be heavily dealt with by Ethics.

Suppressive Groups are defined as those which seek to destroy Scientology or which specialize in injuring or killing persons or damaging their cases or which advocate suppression of Mankind. It does not matter whether the person so connected disconnects or handles, or whether the connection has been previously severed. The reason for this policy letter is to make it extremely difficult for suppressive groups to acquire data they could then pervert and use to harm others. If a person was a member and left, it still remains such a person must have had some basic agreement with the motives of the suppressive group. If we do not hold this rule we may find our task made harder by the abuse of data. We do not want, ever again, the epidemics of implantation to recur and will do all in our power to deny data to any who might pervert it to such use. A person so denied access to upper level data may not receive it ever unless the group of which he is or has been a member is completely abolished and dispersed. Ethics files in all orgs must contain the names of such persons. Neither may such a person ever become a staff member of a Scientology organization without special clearance from LRH Ethics Authority Section, Dept 27, WW. Anyone on staff found to have been a member of a suppressive group must be sent to this section for clearance. NAMES PERSONS ENROLLED IN SP GROUPS OR DECLARED SP MUST BE CIRCULATED TO ALL FRANCHISE HOLDERS, SCN OFFICES AND ORGS AS AND WHEN DISCOVERED. THEY ARE NOT COVERED BY ANY AMNESTY AND MAY NOT HAVE ADVANCED COURSES UNTIL GROUP DISBANDED.

RON HUBBARD LRH.-js.cden Founder Copyright (c) 1968 by L. Ron Hubbard ALL RIGHTS RESERVED [Note: The 29 June 1968 amendment was the addition, sent by telex, of the paragraph in full caps.] 284 HUBBARD COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE Saint Hill Manor, East Grinstead, Sussex HCO POLICY LETTER OF 6 APRIL 1969 Remimeo DIANETICS The policy on Dianetics is that it was and is intended to make a happy, well human being and that it can now be used in conjunction with purely medical (not political psychiatric) treatment. Any person not recovering his health and sense of well being by use of Dianetic auditing should be given by competent medical and clinical doctors or technicians a thorough physical examination to locate the illness, structural or pathological (disease), which is troubling him and introverting him. Scientology healing and mental treatment policies apply to Scientology. Dianetics is fully excepted from these policies. This is in view of the strong and increasing interest and cooperation of individual medical doctors over the world which should be continued and promoted. This policy does NOT include turning any person over to institutions or practitioners engaged in political treatment and expressly does not allow the use of such political treatment as electric shock, lobotomies, brain "operation" or drugs producing convulsions. This policy does permit surgical and structural operations including the alleviation of concussion or skull fractures or the removal of brain tumors but only after they are proven to exist beyond any doubt by competent clinical examination. It does not include exploratory operation. The severance of nerves to "end psychosis" is expressly condemned and the use of produced convulsion by any means to "alleviate psychosis" and the practice of euthanasia (mercy killing) or any barbaric torturous or murderous or terrifying treatment or approach are not only not condoned but should be actively fought due to the non-therapeutic results, the immediate or early demise of the "patient" and to the efforts to use these "treatments" to effect political ends. The persons using these means actively financed and fought Dianetics and Scientology over the world and were the sole source of repression of a valuable sincere and vital breakthrough in the field of healing as consistently demonstrated. This HCO Pol Ltr amplifies as policy HCOB 6 April 1969 and HCOB 12 March 1969. Dianetics is a healing practice supplementing medical treatment. Scientology is a religious practice applying to Man's spirit and his spiritual freedom. In areas, mainly America, where the freedom to heal is subject to attempted monopoly, all Dianetic auditing of physically ill persons (not as student practice) must be in conjunction with competent medical practitioners who must be informed why a medical examination is requested for the preclear. "This is a member of the Church of Scientology. As he may be physically ill we wish a full medical examination and diagnosis and any medical treatment which will resolve the illness found. With the leave of the medical doctor and with the patient under his care we will employ Dianetic auditing as well to assist his recovery. Until healed this person is not eligible for Scientology auditing. We cooperate fully with the medical profession and expect in our turn that our trust in it will not be betrayed. Under no circumstances will we permit this person to be brutalized with psychiatric political treatments." In other countries any variation of this statement or its lack may be employed, depending on the legal position of healing. LRH:cp.ei.cden L. RON HUBBARD Copyright (c) 1969 Founder by L.

The checksheet of the Hubbard Standard Dianetic Course as contained in HCO Policy Letter of 7 May 1969 Issue I may not be altered without the authorization of L. Ron Hubbard. 2. The course time should not exceed one month. 3. The price of the course is S500 in the US or L 125 Sterling or equivalent in the UK and South Africa and the equivalent of L 150 Sterling in ANZO. This includes the Supervisor's Section. 4. Only cash may be accepted and no credit allowed. 5. The Standard Dianetic Course may only be taught by Standard Dianetic Supervisors with a Hubbard Dianetic Graduate Certificate. Qualification is graduation from the HSDC including the Supervisor's Section. 6. The HSDC may be taught in any official Scientology Organization, Franchise Center, or Gung Ho Group by a QUALIFIED PERSON. 7. Students may take their Pre-auditing examination at the Franchise Center or Gung Ho Group at which they do the course. Org Qual Divisions are to supply copies of the examination to Franchises and Gung Ho's who run the HSDC, which are confidential. However, in order to maintain the standard, the students' requirements for certification must be examined by the Qual Examiner of an official Scientology Org. This may be done by mail, by the Franchise or Gung Ho sending to the Org Examiner the full Auditing Reports, Worksheets, pc Examiner forms, etc (i.e. the students' preclears' folders) of the students' auditing on the course showing that the auditing requirements of HCO Bulletin of 6 April 1969 Issue II have been met by the student, as well as his checksheet attested by the student as completed. The pc folders will be returned to the Franchise or Gung Ho Group after examination. Only the Qual Div of an official Scientology Org is authorized to issue a Hubbard Dianetic Graduate certificate. It must be promptly sent to the student upon his passing the Final Examination. 8. This course may not be taught as part of any other course. Tony Dunleavy CS-2 for. L.

DIANETICS FULL REFUND IF YOU DO NOT GET WELL THROUGH AUDITING., Anyone accepting this offer must also agree to receive if required a medical examination and any effective treatment for any entirely medical illness he may have both before and after auditing, The extent of the refund will consist of the exact fee paid. The claim for refund must be made within three months of the conclusion of the auditing. If the fee is refunded no more Dianetic or Scientology auditing or training may be given to the person. Medical illnesses which beforehand could not be cured medically usually respond to medical treatment after some auditing. Auditing after such medical treatment tends to stabilize the medical cure and prevent relapse. A standard release form covering these points must be signed by the applicant. Some large percentage of Man's physical ills are psychosomatic and respond directly to auditing. Only auditing done by Hubbard Dianetic graduates in official organizations are covered by this offer. WHY BE TIRED? WHY BE IN PAIN? WHY FEEL BAD? AUDITING CAN MAKE YOU FEEL WELL AND HAPPY WITH LIFE. OUR ORGANIZATIONS ARE FRIENDLY. THEY ARE ONLY HERE TO HELP YOU. These points above are to be included as additional clauses in our release forms. IF ANYONE EVER DEMANDS A REFUND UNDER THIS OFFER make him or her sign an undertaking never again to purchase training or processing and A RECEIPT IN FULL and GIVE THEM THEIR MONEY BACK ON A MINUS INVOICE AT ONCE. Do not make a long argument out of it or a long drawn out Admin action. By paying these claims quickly, getting the promise not to have more auditing or any training and getting a receipt YOU ACTUALLY BUILD CONFIDENCE. It is fully understood that this campaign applies to DIANETICS. Trying to sell Scientology to make physical health has been a betrayal of Scientology. The subject that made bodies well was and always has been Dianetics. Scientology increases ability and gives one immortality. Refunds for Scientology services are governed by the older policies which remain in force. The first line, FULL REFUND IF YOU DO NOT GET WELL THROUGH AUDITING, can be posted in any display space. If so, a small printed complete leaflet as written above should also be displayed so they can get all the facts. Persons asking about this should be handed the leaflet. New additional leaflet should also be available and handed out at the same time: DIANETICS Dianetics (Dia-through, noos-mind) has been 39 years in development. It is the first fully precision science of the mind. 287 Physical illness, aches, pains, continual exhaustion, body malfunctions are created or held in an unchanging state by the mind. This is called psychosomatic (psycho-spirit, somaticbody) illness. It has been known about for a century but there has never been a positive remedy before Dianetics. Auditing (it means to listen) is a term given to the application of Dianetics. No drugs, no hypnotism, no mechanical treatment is used. The actual source of psychosomatic illness has been isolated in Dianetics. Processing is the action of an auditor letting the preclear (person not yet cleared) find the actual source of his physical illness. Processing requires usually 25 hours or less. Various forms of mental therapy were in existence before Dianetics. These were psychology, psychiatry and psycho-analysis. Psychology and psychiatry were developed chiefly by a Russian veterinarian named Ivan Petrovich Pavlov (1849-1936). His basic principle was that men were only animals and could be conditioned and trained much like dancing bears or dogs. This work was only intended to CONTROL people and so has found great favor with certain rulers and upper classes. None of the activities of psychology or psychiatry were designed to help or cure, only to Control the masses. Psycho-analysis was developed by an Austrian Jew Sigmund Freud (1856-1939). His occasional successes served to point out that there was a possibility of solving psychosomatic illness through addressing the mind. His concentration on sex gave the subject considerable popularity. Dianetics was first released in 1950 and has been increasingly successful since that time. Unlike earlier studies, the interest of Dianetics was the relief of physical suffering. The results of psychiatry are physically damaging, consisting of various brutalities and often injure the patient for life or kill him outright. There have never been any cures listed or claimed for psychiatric treatment as its interest lies only in control. The cost is about $2000 a month often for years in America and L 60 a week for as long as a decade in England. Psychology is mainly used for testing aptitude or intelligence. It has counseling as part of its activities but it is more concerned with and financed for warfare. These two subjects have bitterly contested any healing subject and use public media governments and even rumor to forward population Control. This action has often made it difficult to bring bonafide mental health to the people. Psycho-analysis requires up to five years for an uncertain result and costs about L 9000. Dianetics requires only a matter of hours, only helps and does not physically injure anyone. It costs about $25 an hour in the US and about L 50 total processing cost in the UK. There is no quarrel between Dianetics and general practitioners of the medical profession. They both have the same purpose (to make people well) and are not political. It is freely admitted in Dianetics that physical illness that can be effectively treated medically should be so treated. Auditing will not set a broken leg or deliver a baby. But it can help get the leg healed in two weeks instead of the usual six and after effects of childbirth do not exist when Dianetic auditing is also used. Many people who cannot work, who cannot enjoy life, are physically ill without realizing it. Aches, pains, colds, even malfunctions of the body are symptoms of illness. See the Registrar. (address) Variations of the central ideas of these themes may be used. But remember, Dianetics is pastoral Counseling and all HDGs must be ministers. Psycho-somatic means spirit-body. Look up "psyche" in the dictionary and you'll see. L. RON HUBBARD Founder LRH:an.ei.rd Copyright (c) 1969 by L.

When you are physically well, you can begin Scientology training and processing on your road to total freedom." And another sign, "This organization will not recommend or condone political mental treatment such as electric shocks or brain operations or convulsive drugs and condemns utterly this Fascist approach to 'mental health' by extermination of the insane. Because we will not agree to brutality and murder under the guise of mental healing or to the easy and lawless seizure of persons in the name of 'mental health' for political reasons, we are fought ceaselessly by those who seek domination of this country through 'mental treatment'. You are safe so long as we live." The registrar is to sign the person up as he or she would any preclear. The org must make a liaison with a medical clinic which has diagnostic equipment and obtain a flat rate charge. Legally and ethically it is all right to send a person to a doctor for a physical examination, but it will cause an ARC break with the doctor to specify what he is to do in that examination. It is best to say merely: "Would you please do a complete medical examination to include any acute or chronic illness and any effects from past injury or illness. " It should be made clear to the medical doctor who pays his fee. "Your fee for this examination and for any special investigation will be paid by the bearer." It should end by saying, "Would you please give a note of your findings to the bearer." Note that it would be unethical for the medical doctor to treat any curable disease found unless the person examined specifically asked him to treat it, otherwise he would refer the person to his own doctor. A doctor cannot be asked to supervise a person while he is having auditing because he cannot professionally be asked to join in a non-medical attempt to cure some illness, for if he did he would be subject to discipline, charged with "covering", and if found guilty, struck off the Medical Register. The org should make their position very clear to the clinic-that they are trying to cooperate with the medical profession and that Scientology is a religion. However, after or in the absence of medical treatment if none is needed, the persons sent will be given Dianetic auditing after such medical examination and treatment, if given, or under medical. A clean cut difference should be made between Dianetics as an assist done under a physician's care or after his treatment and Dianetics as a religious function of pastoral counselling or Scientology as a religious practice. If contempt or hostility is met, write a letter of complaint to the medical 291 association and try another doctor or clinic. In such a letter of complaint make it very plain that you are not engaged in physical healing, that you have always tried to co-operate with medicine and that your only quarrel is with psychiatric casualties and their perversion of the medical profession. If the clinic shows clear cut evidence of the need of an operation, the D of Processing should give the preclear the verdict. If the preclear will not have it, arrange a meeting between the preclear and the doctor and discuss it. It is possible to engage in Dianetic processing even when a medical verdict is for an operation, but if the preclear will not have it, then undertake Dianetic processing only under the doctor's care and with his consent, and insist upon the preclear being re-examined during processing. The cost of the examination and any operation is in addition to processing fees and any such charges are paid directly to the clinic by the preclear, the org not taking responsibility for the costs of these. After any medical treatment, the entire treatment is run as an engram or chain as the first action. Lingering symptoms are also run down to their basics as per Dianetic Auditing Assists given in the Dianetic Course. Policy is not to engage on auditing sick pcs without medical advice or treatment as required. Insane pcs are handled in this same fashion as they are mainly physically ill, need rest and no harassment. Insane pcs are a lot of trouble unless one has an institution to hand, but institutions cannot be trusted. Until an org has some means or connection by which the insane preclear will not be brutalized, shocked or operated on with brain "operations", it is better to refuse them. By insane pc is meant one who is subject to highly irrational and destructive behavior. If not, they are regarded as physically ill. The senile and mentally retarded are also handled as per physically ill pcs as above. Waivers in all cases are required. A new clause, "Will not hold the organization or its principals responsible for medical costs or errors" must be included in signing persons up for Dianetics. Complete files of all such should be kept in Division 6 to show in case of need (a) that the org does not engage in physical healing and (b) success stories with full records, X-rays, etc for Dianetics. Where this policy letter is fully in force, earlier policies on healing and the insane are cancelled. This change of policy is due to (1) our wish to cease to individuate from the other social groups of the society and (2) our refusal to leave the field of mental healing in the hands of public enemies. This is also part of our campaign to Revitalize Western Society. "A well society is a sane society." L~ RON HUBBARD Founder LRH:fas.ei.eden Copyright (c) 1969 by L.

A Class V is the only auditor authorised to audit triple grades. Lower classed auditors may audit only single grades. No triple grades may be audited on a pc after this date who has not been awarded a Standard Dianetic Completion Certificate. This certificate requires a well, happy human being as its end result. Usually this requires at least 25 hours of Dianetic Auditing and the auditing of a score or more of items by Standard Dianetics and may also entail in conjunction with auditing medical treatment for any physical illness or disease. Standard Dianetic Completion tends to ensure full gains on Scientology Grades and the attainment of exteriorization with perception at AO levels. Without such Dianetic Completion upper level gains are often poor. Standard Dianetics has been an Out Grade in the past and is now easily achieved and should be thoroughly done. Those who have had Scientology auditing and have not obtained full results should now get their Standard Dianetic Completion which is then followed by full upper level rehab and review at which time they should have achieved all they hoped for and considerably more.

RON HUBBARD Copyright (c) 1969 Founder by L.

On the contrary. PCs CAN BE STARTED ON SCIENTOLOGY GRADES. LRH ED 13 June 1969 states, "But mainly don't abandon any Scientology actions. Keep on doing these. Put somebody in charge of the Dianetics Programme and keep Scn going." It is TRUE that pcs who are trying to handle psychosomatic illnesses with grades, wind up at "OT" still trying to cure a headache. But what is a psychosomatic illness? What does that mean? Migraine headaches and chronic pains. How many pcs are like that? Only a small percentage. It is TRUE that pcs who need medical treatment should get it and then be audited on Dianetics. It is TRUE Dianetics handles aches and pains, accidents and illness and is a vital auditing tool. BUT IT IS ALSO TRUE THAT A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF PCs CAN GO STRAIGHT TO SCIENTOLOGY GRADES. Every test case of the original Dianetic programme was already a Grade IV or even VA release. This means Dianetics was done after Scientology grades. It is TRUE that a Class VI auditor also has to be an HDC. This has been policy for the last five or six years. An HDC is not really a prerequisite for a Class Zero. It looks that way on the chart. It is true he'll be a better zero (or 1, 11, 111, IV) if he's first an HDC. BUT IT ISN'T REQUIRED. Many pcs find Dianetic auditing too steep a gradient and start better on level zero. When they are Grade IV they run fine on Dianetics and Dianetic Triples. One way to do it is Scientology single grades, Dianetic triples, Scientology triples. An HAS or the lower level Scn basic courses start people off great. Now because you are being told you shouldn't drop any Scientology actions DON'T now drop all your Dianetic actions. 297 Follow LRH ED 16 INT 13 June 1969. Put your Dianetic actions in as a Dianetic Programme under an appointed person and get on with the Scientology actions that never should have been dropped. Sign up new people on this basis. I . "If you have psychosomatic illnesses sign up for Dianetics. We'll get you examined by an MD and handle it." 2. "If you are not physically ill, sign up for Scientology." · sick pc is channeled by the registrar and Tech Sec into Dianetics. · fairly healthy pc is channeled by the registrar and Tech Sec direct into Scientology grades. On a pc who is signing up for Power, if earlier Son results were poor, put the pc onto Dianetics as this is a hidden psychosomatic illness. · healthy pc can go from Son grades to Dianetics to Power. · student can start on level zero. Or if the centre doesn't teach levels then he can go onto the Dianetics course. If the Dianetics course is widely taught by groups and Franchises most students will already have had it when they get to an Academy or a Saint Hill. Really good auditors are good on Dianetics. If they can audit Dianetics they will be good Son auditors. So it is a good point. The techniques of Dianetics are very simple and show up the auditor as good or poor. But this doesn't stop you from entering an applicant in an org straight onto Academy Son courses. Without creating any confusions or difficulties each and every Org, Centre, Franchise and group must get this implemented fast. YOU CAN SIGN PEOPLE UP DIRECTLY FOR SCIENTOLOGY AUDITING OR TRAINING-Allowed Services Policy still applies. Dianetics is designed to care for psychosomatically ill people or to get charge off a ease before or during upper level actions. The intention of the whole Dianetic programme was to reach out, putting a type of training in the field and to handle cases of psychosomatic illness. You can put a pc on Dianetic singles or triples anytime during his auditing career. It will have to be sometime but his physical condition says when. There is no other policy on this. An auditor can be trained on Standard Dianetics anytime in his career. The only policy on this is that an auditor must be an HDG before Class VI and every VIII must be also an HDG. Dianetics training to HDC can be done in the field if the Supervisor is an Son org HDG. Only official orgs can train to HDG. Just like it said on the Dn Graduation tape. Don't now drop Dianetics. Get Scientology back IN. Brian Livingston LRH:BL:rs.hw.rd CS-1 Copyright (c) 1969 From notes by by L. Ron Hubbard L.

Persons who go Clear on the PC route (Solo Audit Course Saint Hill who did not do the Saint Hill Special Briefing Course) may skip lower level Academy requirements if they enroll on the Saint Hill Special Briefing Course after going Clear. 2. The "PC route" consists of a person being audited up through the grades including Power Processing and VA and then enrolling on the Solo Audit Course at a Saint Hill, making Grade VI and then enrolling on the Clearing Course. They have little or no Academy training in most cases. 3. After going Clear, some of them realize they need training as an auditor to help others and better guide their own lives and handle others. Those who do wish to take such training on the Saint Hill Special Briefing Course may enroll at once on the Saint Hill Course. 4. There is no alteration of charges for them as the SHSBC must be paid for. But the requirement of lower level Academy training before Saint Hill Course enrollment is relaxed for them. 5. It should be noted that it is more costly to take this PC route as the Solo Audit Course is given to those who successfully complete the Saint Hill Special Briefing Course. But Academy training up through the lower grades is required for SHSBC initial enrollment. 6. Most Clears who are not fully trained suddenly recognize the need of it. This ruling is therefore made to permit them to obtain that training quickly. 7. The route through Academies and the SHSBC and then Solo Audit and Clearing Courses is more economical. L.
