JONESTOWN(Continued from Page 2) mipd-control drugs; thorazine ••. all the kinds of drugs the CIA used for twenty-five years in their mind-con– trol exper~nts. OOMMEm'ATOR: Could they have been brought in by Jones himself? IDlSINGER: They smuggled in a large number of guns and a vast supply of drugs and you can not snuggle those in fran the United States to Guyana without the carnplicit consent of both governments. "'fou take people off, now let me point this out, you take people off into a isolated area away from everything, Jones had been doing this for some ten years, checking out down there, getting everything set. They had a very IID<iern hospital, for a thou– sand people, they had one of the m:::>s~ m:::>dern hospitals in South America. They had d~ily medical check-ups for almost everyone and Jones kept records of everything including his relation– ships with the Russians, everything. But it seems now that all the medical records have disappeared or never existed for these daily medical check~ ups and all of this., just gone. Then the last point, and this is the key issue in all of this, is the body count. It happened on November 18, 1978. For the next four days we had Americans in there and we had Guyanese officials in there. · CDMMENTATOR: November 18, 1978? :OOISINGER: Right. The next day, one of the yorn1g men who had been in there who had wandered away to get a stetho– scope and kept on walking? OOMMENI'ATOR: Yes. IDlSINGER: I talked to him in San Francisco and he helped with the body count the next day. By identifying the people ... he was one of the few people who knew the people who could identify them. They had a body count the next day of men, women, and child– ren and they toe-tag than under their identities, helped by this young man. When they turned them over to identify than there were no bodies underneath. For four days the count went fran 382 to 409, it was in that general area. Suddenly on the fifth day it rose to 700 and t~e sixth day it rose to 915. REV. DAUGHTRY (Continued from Page 4) Black Studies, Black Elected Officials, Black Caucuses in ~hite churches, Black theolo– gians, there were Black confe– rences--the Black Power Confe– rence in Newark, New Jersey and Philadelphia, and there was Black literature--unnumbered volumns, and Black papers, Black magazines, and Black everthing. But significantly, white folks still were writing about Black Power. It was a very interest– ing development that here we were talking about Blaok Power, and the country pretended it did not know what was happening. And if you look at the volumes which were written, you will know that white folks did more talking about Black Power than Black folks. Then the apparel changed, remember Dashikis and Afrikan dress; originals and American-made became the thing ••• Afros and naturals -anything Afrikan was in. We were singing, "I'm Black and I'm Proud." Thus they became Black ••• and Afrikan. Nobody could question their Blackness. They even developed a handshake, and a special voca- ' bulary to Found out the Black Power Days. "Negroes" would have fo~ght you to the death just a .year before.
