---------- John W. Gardner
John W. Gardner, 89, Founder of Common Cause and Adviser to Presidents, Dies
John W. Gardner, an eloquent voice for citizen
participation who founded the Common Cause lobby,
championed campaign finance reform and introduced
Medicare as secretary of health, education and welfare
in the heyday of President Lyndon B. Johnson's Great
Society, died Saturday at his home on the campus of
Stanford University in Palo Alto, Calif.
He was 89....
In the late 1930's, Mr. Gardner taught psychology at
the Connecticut College for women in New London and
Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts.
He worked
briefly for the Federal Communications Commission in
1942, then joined the Marine Corps.
During World War
II, he was assigned in Europe to the Office of
Strategic Services, the forerunner of the Central
Intelligence Agency, and left the service in 1946 as a
captain.
After the war, he went to work for the
Carnegie Corporation of New York, one of the nation's
oldest private philanthropic foundations, whose grants
to colleges and research and educational institutions
helped shape educational policies in America.
... Mr. Gardner was the only Republican in the Johnson
cabinet. The Democratic-dominated 89th Congress had
passed no fewer than 189 major domestic laws, with
many falling under Mr.
Gardner's sprawling agency,
which touched the lives of almost every American, from
preschoolers to the elderly.
With characteristic wit,
Mr. Gardner described his mission as "a series of
great opportunities disguised as insoluble
problems."...
JOHN GARDNER CIA MIND CONTROL HISTORY FROM THE SEARCH FOR THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE http://www.druglibrary.org/schaffer/lsd/marks1.htm
More than 30 years after the war, Murray remains modest
in his claims for the assessment system, saying that
it was only an aid in weeding out the "horrors" among
OSS candidates.
Nevertheless, the secret agency's
leaders believed in its results, and Murray's system
became a fixture in OSS, testing Americans and foreign
agents alike.
Some of Murray's young behavioral
scientists, like John Gardner,[9]
would go on to
become prominent in public affairs, and, more
importantly, the OSS assessment program would be
recognized as a milestone in American psychology.
It
was the first systematic effort to evaluate an
individual's personality in order to predict his
future behavior.
After the war, personality assessment
would become a new field in itself, and some of
Murray's assistants would go on to establish OSS-like
systems at large corporations, starting with AT&T.
They also would set up study programs at universities,
beginning with the University of California at
Berkeley.[10]
As would happen repeatedly with the
CIA's mind-control research, OSS was years ahead of
public developments in behavioral theory and
application.
FOOTNOTE 9: Gardner, a psychologist teaching at Mount
Holyoke College,
helped Murray set up the original
program and went on to open the West Coast OSS
assessment site at a converted beach club in San Juan
Capistrano. After the war, he would become Secretary
of HEW in the Johnson administration and founder of
Common Cause.
