He now lives with a young woman in her 20s who is in the Labor Committee. LaRouche has said that in the early 1960's with the assistance of Miss Schnitzer he tried to start a number of left movements from scratch, but had no success until the summer of 1966 when he began giving courses at the Free University of New York FUNY.

Teague III. In June of 1968, Marcus took advantage of the SDS-le- d NOT LEGAL YET!!! TO FRANK A. CAPELL by all :an November 24, 1977 The Utah Independent Page 7 student disturbances at Columbia Un- iversity, by teaching a course at the SDS Summer Liberation School SLS on Elementary Marxist Economics. This course was described in the SLS catalog as the development of Marxs method from the German ideology to the tendency for the rate of profit to fall. Marxian, and recent theories of value; elementary models of economic growth. Another course at the Summer Liberation School was U.S. Economic Growth and Political History which had among its instructors a C. LaRouche, identified by radicals as Carol Schnitzer. In January 1969, the SDS National Council placed an embargo on the Labor Committee to stop it from using the SDS name. The quarrel developed because the Labor Committee had violated the New Lefts revolutionary orthodoxy by supporting striking New York City teachers, members of the United Federation of Teachers UFT led by Albert Shanker, who struck in opposition to the Balkanization of the New York City schools in a community control scheme which seated an assortment of radicals, and racist agitators on local school boards. Despite their expulsion, Marcus followers continued to use the SDS name. As members of the SDS Labor Committee, two early and close associates of Marcus, Lief Johnson and Ed Spannaus, taught classes at FUNYs successor, Alternate U. Other veterans of the Columbia University student strike who became National Caucus of Labor Committee leaders include Tony Papert and Tony Chaitkin. In April 1969, as SDS moved toward total disintegration, the SDS National Council gave some limited support to four SDS Labor Committee members, Steven Fraser, Richard Borgmann. Jan Friedman and Pre-Marxi- an, Paul Milkman, who were arrested in Philadelphia and charged with possession of explosives. Fraser and Borgmann were defended by David Rudovsky of the National Lawyers Guild and National Emergency Civil Liberties Committee, both fronts for the Communist Party, USA. In June 1971, the NECLC defended the two arguing they and their political organization (NCLC). . . were the most consistent opponents of the developing anarchist, terrorist tendencies in SDS and elsewhere. NECLC also publicized the NCLCs call for a defense committee and inquiry which had been signed by Dr. Benjamin Spock, Paul ODwyer, Dick Gregory, Seymour Mciman, Paul Sweezy, Douglas Dowd, Thomas I. Emerson, ACLU executive director Arych Neicr, and in which the late anarchist fellow of the Institute for Policy Studies, Paul Goodman, had agreed to serve. From 1969 to the organization was in a period of dormancy. Lyn Marcus Lyndon LaRouche, however, was not. He continued to develop and expound his peculiar interpretations of Marxist theories with the New School for Social Research in New York providing the forum. Following some internal factional disputes and expulsions over miniscule political differences, NCLC emerged in its present form with its policies reflecting the fantasies, misunderstandings and bizarre psychology of Lyndon LaRouche who increasingly insisted on one man rule while depending on a curious cabal of Greek and German NCLC members, several of whom are not U.S. citizens and who had backgrounds as Communist Party activists. Of this time, the New York Times reported: Miss Schnitzer and Mr. Marcus parted. Early (NCLC) members say that she had served as a target of his wrath at meetings providing as least a semblance of debate about theories. The summer of the parting, Mr. Marcus advocated training for members citing harassment by the Communist Party in labor organizing. It is also noted that LaRouche Marcus developed some pseudopsychological theories to add to his economic analysis. Among those ideas are that most women are homosexuals and that women marry men in order to hurt them. The National Caucus of Labor Committees first gained notoriety in far left circles in 1972 when it commenced a series of vitriolic and obscene attacks on LeRoi Jones, a militant racist in his own right, and on the late George Wiley, head of the National Welfare Rights Organization. From scurrilous vehement verbal attacks on its political rivals, NCLC moved into direct assaults on members and offices of rival revolutionary mid-197- 2, self-defen- se organizations. The Communist CPUSA Party, and the (Trotskyist munist) Socialist Workers Party SWP were singled out for attacks by mobile NCLC goon quads who beat Trotskyitcs and Stalinists on the streets and in their offices. U.S. A. Com- MEMBERS ALL CONGRESS: We arc grateful that the new Panama T reaty that our dictatorial President and Communist Tprrijos signed on September 7th whereby the U.S. would pay Panama the sum of $70 million, plus annuities, plus the surrender of the Panama Canal Zone, has no legal effect unless it is signed by 67 out of 100 Senators and by a majority of the members of the U.S. House of Representatives. It also must be approved by a vote of the people of Panama, though that is easy to obtain in a Dictatorship where few people would dare to vote against the wishes of their leader. If the Communists can force us to surrender the Panama Canal, they will achieve partial encirclement of the U.S. and threaten our ability to survive. Since the new Treaty forbids the U.S. from building another canal elsewhere, even if we wanted to, and since the U.S. is being urged to finance its own destruction, it becomes obvious that any Senator or Congressman voting for the Canal Treaty willingly supports Communism, has broken his oath of office, is guilty of treason and has no right to remain in Congress. Please be on guard to be present when the vote is taken. Vot NO on this giveaway of our outrageous Panama Canal.

It is time for us to recognize that if the people and their representatives are fallible human beings, given to prejudices, errors, and conflicts of interest, that our civil servant bureaucracy can be no less human. It is time for us to tell the people who elect us, and no one else, what the real problem is.
