VL-IV (15): This Is Not A Test, pages 339/240

[Robin Landseadel]

	Liddy foresaw that the heroin issue could be the very instrument
	that the White House group needed to consolidate power within
	the bureaucracy, and thereby extend its police power. To
	demonstrate how a few determined men could manipulate the
	emotions of an entire nation by invoking a few highly visual
	symbols of fear, Liddy invited his new cohorts in the White
	House to a series of propaganda films being shown in the
	National Archives that June. The "Inner circle" that Liddy
	persuaded to view these films included John Ehrlichman,
	whose Domestic Council 'had assumed by now undisputed
	control over all domestic issues; Egil Krogh; Donald Santarelli,
	who was then slated to head the billion-dollar Law Enforcement
	Assistance Administration (LEAA), which disbursed money to
	local police departments; Robert Mardian, who headed the
	internal-security division of the Department of Justice; and a
	number of Krogh's young assistants on the Domestic Council.
	The cycle of films was climaxed on June 13 by the showing of
	Triumph of the Will, a Nazi propaganda film made under the
	auspices of Hitler and Goering which graphically depicted the
	way a "national will" could be inculcated into the masses
	through the agency of controlled fear and frenzied outrage.
