    RE: Berry's World

    Dear Sandy, Brian, Donna and Gary,

         Attached is Op Funny Bone.   It was done off of
    a recent LRH order to myself, so needless to say
    I want the actions done fast,

         What is needed is for each AG I to determine for
    their own area if Berry's World cartoon is carried.

         From that point then the Op can be sent to them.
    When they are determining if the cartoon is carried
    ensure that they have enough data to work with as
    they will not all need the Op right away (unless we
    find out that the cartoon is carried in their area).

         So please get started on this right away and add it
    to your battle plan this week to get the orgs going
    on finding the circulation.

         I suggest telex lines for this initial cycle.

                                       Love,

                                       Greg (for Dick)

                       RE: OP FUNNY BONE

    Dear Dick,

    SITUATION.  Ron wanted the attached cartoonist disenfranchised.

    Data:  The attached Op is a simple Op very similar to the successful
    Kensolving Op that I mocked that cost him alot of his papers.

    It's simple to do and should be fun for the AG I's in outter areas.

    Solution:  Impliment the attached OP.

    This is OK   R

    Approved

    Disapproved

    Love,

    Randy

    OP FUNNY BONE

    INFORMATION:  Jim Berry has 1.1ed Scientology in attached cartoon:
    It is desired that this fellow no longer has a sindicated
    publication.

    MAJOR TARGET:  To cause Jim Berry to lose his sindicated
    publication so that he can no longer SP Scientology.

    PRIMARY TARGETS:  All US BI Secs are on Post Operating.

    The worth while purpose of this action is to remove JB
    from his position of power, so that he cannot attack the
    C of S.

    USBI Ops Net is responsible for the overall planning of
    this project.

    Each concerned USBI Sec is responsible for seeing that the
    assigned targets in his area get done.

    Each USBI Sec is responsible for any debugging necessary
    on this project/working in liaison with Ops Net USBI.

    Each AG I concerned, is responsible for seeing that any
    targets assigned to him/her are done.

    VITAL TARGETS:  That all concerned ensure that SECURITY
    is IN on this project.

    That the publications that "carry" JB's cartoons are found.

    That all production personnel that work on this project
    star rate M4 check out on this project.

    OPERATING TARGETS:

    1.  Do a suitable guize telephone call to the NEA - the
    Newspaper Enterprise Association - their headquarters are
    in Cleveland and NYC.  Contact their L.A. office if they
    have one, if not get hold of the others.  Find out what
    areas of the US they circulate JB's cartoon.  You can be
    the enterprising amateur cartoonist who is trying to get
    some info on the subject and your stuff is somewhat like
    JB's.  Or you could be a freelancer who is doing an article
    on syndicated business; or you can be a student who is
    doing a paper on the same subject.  See what buttons you
    can get on this call concerning cartoonist.

    "gosh, I bet some of these cartoonists are pretty tempermental
    you know like artists.  Do you ever have any problems with
    them -- I mean like JB - etc.  Boy I sure appreciate your
    help etc".

    Follow this down as needed.

    3.  Ops Nat is to include the above findings/buttons etc

    4.  Each USBI Sec is to send out to all concerned AG I's
        the following targets.

                                               ____________

    PROJECT:  FUNNY BONE TARGETS FOR CONCERNED AG I's

    a)  Find all the publications you can in your area that print
        Berry's World - see attached cartoon.  Make a list of these.

    b)  Take one of the above publications and have a trusted FSM
        look through as many as possible "back" issues to obtain
        other examples of "Berry's World".

    c)  As the tone of these is 1.1, there should be many
        buttons of persons that are being pressed.  e.g. a
        joke on Poles:  a joke on Catholics:  a joke on Jews:
        a joke on any ethnic groups:  make a list of this person
        types or ethnics.

    d)  Recuirt several FSM's that can write letters.

    e)  Have the FSM's write to leaders of the ethnic groups
        of whatever turns up, and complain about the insulting
        cartoon that you just came across.  Suggest that the
        group write letters to the publication in question and
        demand that the publication drop that cartoon. And to say
        that their members will drop the publication if they don't
        drop it.

    f)  AG I, should read all letters going out to ensure that
        no mention of Scientology is made.  The letters should
        not be mailed all from one place, and they should all be
        sent a good distance from any Org or Mission.  All the
        addresses (return) should be different and spread around
        the city.

    g)  do b) to g) to all the publications discovered in target
        "a".

    ----------

    h)  As each new cartoon comes out for all the publications in
        target "a", have several FSM's write letters to the
        Editor (different types) complaining about whatever can
        be complained about in the cartoon e.g. shouldn't make fun
        about Firemen:  shouldn't ridicule the poor etc. Some
        of these letters should state that the complainer is
        dropping the publication and many of his "Firemen friends/
        "poor friends" are doing the same.  AG I, should read
        all letters before going out.  Return addresses should be
        away from the Org or Missions and not near to each other.

    i)  Continue this above action with 30 or 40 FSM's, each
        week changing the FSM's, or each day/month as the
        publications come out.  Send up to US weekly reports
        on the results of these actions.
