Frederick Gary Allen (August 2, 1936 – November 29, 1986) was an American conservative writer. Allen promoted the notion that international banking and politics control domestic decisions, taking them out of elected officials' hands.

Background

As a student, Allen majored in history at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California, and also attended California State University, Long Beach. He was a prominent member of Robert W. Welch Jr.'s John Birch Society, of which he was a spokesman. He contributed to magazines such as Conservative Digest and American Opinion magazine from 1964. He also was the speech writer for George Wallace, the former governor of Alabama, during his third-party presidential bid in the 1968 U.S. presidential election against Richard M. Nixon and Hubert H. Humphrey. He was an advisor to the conservative Texas millionaire Nelson Bunker Hunt.

Allen was the father of four children, including Michael Allen, a political news journalist.

Allen died as the result of a liver ailment in 1986 in Long Beach, California, at the age of 50.

Writing

In 1971, Allen co-wrote a book titled None Dare Call It Conspiracy with Larry Abraham. It was prefaced by U.S. Representative John G. Schmitz of California's 35th congressional district, the nominee of the American Independent Party in the 1972 U.S. presidential election. It sold more than four million copies during the 1972 presidential campaign opposing Richard Nixon and U.S. Senator George S. McGovern.

In this book, Allen and Abraham assert that the modern political and economic systems in most developed nations are the result of a sweeping conspiracy by the Establishment's power elite, for which he also uses the term Insiders. According to the authors, these Insiders use elements of Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto to forward their socialist/communist agenda:

  1. Establish an income tax system as a means of extorting money from the common man;
  2. Establish a central bank, deceptively named so that people will think it is part of the government;
  3. Have this bank be the holder of the national debt;
  4. Run the national debt, and the interest thereon, sky high through wars (or any sort of deficit spending), starting with World War I.

He quotes the Council on Foreign Relations as stating in its 1959 No. 7 study on behalf of the United States Senate: "The U.S. must strive to: A. Build a new international order."

In February 1980, Allen began a working relationship with research assistant Sam Wells, whose work Allen's writings would depend upon until his death. Wells continued his work after Allen's death, assisting his widow with the publication of his newsletter of political and economic analysis.

Allen wrote other books about the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission, asserting that the term New World Order was used by a secretive elite working towards the destruction of national sovereignty. Allen's last book, Say "No!" to the New World Order, was published posthumously in January 1987.
