Contents: WHAT IS MULDER DOING HERE? • WHAT IS THE MULDER OPERATION IN THE UNITED STATES? • He meets "decision makers" secretly • He hires a well-placed Republic law firm to lobby for South Africa • Mulder's agents have arranged illicit high-level military contracts between South African and U.S. defense personnel • Mulder's Ministry has promoted and arranged illegal trips to South Africa by U.S. Congressman and their staffs • The Mulder Ministry carries on an insidious advertising campaign in major U.S. newspapers and magazines • WHAT MULDER WANTS FROM THE U.S. • The report says Dr. Cornelius Mulder is the chief propagandist for South Africa; as Minister of Information and Interior, he is the author of an ambitious and costly plan to break South Africa's increasing isolation and ostracism by the nations of the world; by skillful techniques and private maneuvers, he peddles the illusion that real change is occurring in South Africa. He seeks to lure the United States into deeper and deeper economic, cultural, and military alliance with his racist country. The report says Mulder met then-Vice President Ford in a quiet, "private" visit and tried to sell him the idea that South Africa could help solve the energy crisis in early 1974; he secretly met Vice Admiral Ray Peet, the senior official in charge of International Security Affairs at the Pentagon. The report says last year the Ministry paid for the trip of six Congressional staffers although it is a violation of the Constitution for any member or staff of Congress to accept such gifts from foreign governments. The report says in a series of ads published this spring, the Mulder campaign promotes international acceptance of South Africa. The report says South Africa is becoming more isolated; the imminent independence of Mozambique and Angola have radically changed the balance of forces in southern Africa, to such an extent that even Prime Minister Vorster realizes he has to pull back from Rhodesia and withdraw back to South Africa's own borders. The report says the separation between black and white exists because the whites monopolize the social resources of the country, and the enforced separation between various "ethnic" groups among the blacks is part of the classical colonial strategy of "divide and rule." The report says the purpose of "influx control" is to channel Africans as labor units into areas needed by the white economy, and to keep them as a docile labor force by the threat of being "endorsed out" of the cities if found disturbing South Africa's labor situation. The report discusses the South African State Security Council, Hilgard Muller, John Vorster, Helen Suzman; the World Affairs Council, lobbyists, Collier, Shannon, Rill and Edwards, the arms embargo, Admiral Hugo Biermann, Admiral Thomas Moorer, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, J.W. Middendorf, "separate development", the Organization of African Unity (OAU), 'detente' policy, education, Governor Ronald Reagan, the Los Angeles Times, United Nations sanctions against Rhodesia, stainless steel, Bantustans, arrest, and violations of pass laws.
