Scientology Ringleader Mouths Off About Narconon

Sounding OFF

Narconon ® Official speaks Out.

To The Editor: Our society today is faced with a battle against drugs that can literally destroy our future generations.

There are 500,000 or more people dealing drugs in the United States alone selling billions of dollars in drugs each year and our children are the customers.

Narconon International is in the forefront of the battle against drugs and is saving lives around the world through its' drug prevention and rehabilitation programs.

Over the last 23 years Narconon has successfully rehabilitated tens of thousands of drug addicts and has spoken to over 1/2 million students in schools, parents, teachers and professionals in the community through the Narconon drug education program.

In Spain an outside study was done that showed 69.2% of those that completed the Narconon program were successfully off drugs after 2 years. In Sweden an outside study found that 78.6% of those that finished the program were successfully off drugs after 2 years.

We have recently acquired a 25 year lease of the former Chilocco Indian Agricultural School from the Chilocco Development Authority made up of representatives from the Kaw, Otoe-Missouria, Pawnee, Ponca & Tonkawa Northern Oklahoman Tribes.

A national drug rehabilitation program is being set up at Chilocco with 75 beds and we are currently in the process of complying with the Oklahoma State Department of Health - fire, safety & health codes. This facility represents a powerful tool against those that are pushing drugs and there will be those that will not want Narconon to succeed at Chilocco because they are for drugs and are on the other side in the battle against drugs.

A recent article in the Newkirk Herald Journal critical of Narconon and our efforts to stop drugs was simply a collection of old articles and opinions. If the writer of this article was to have done an article in 1933 about a Jewish project in Germany based on research in newspaper articles back then, what would have this article said? Put them in the oven" If his "research" consisted of paraphrasing articles about Native Americans written 100 years ago what would his article have said?

It is very simple. Narconon is a non-profit public benefit corporation with the job of saving lives and getting these former drug addicts back into society as productive drug-free members. This is our job and has been for the last 23 years. Our success is based on hard work and a drug rehabilitation program that was developed by L. Ron Hubbard, on of the most acclaimed and widely read authors of all time. The Board of Directors of Narconon International adopted this program because it is highly successful and has proven itself over the years. Only those that are in favor of a drug ridden society or those who are directly profiting from the drug racket would oppose such a program.

We look forward to the Narconon Chilocco New Life Center becomes a bright spot in society bringing new life to those addicted to drugs and it has been an honor to us to be able to work with the Kaw, Otoe-Missouria, Pawnee, Ponca, Tonkawa, the Oklahoma Indian Business Development Center and the Oklahoma Health Planning Commission.

We invite you to call or visit our facility once we are underway and as employment is available we will be notifying the local papers. If you have questions about Narconon I would love to hear from you.
