by Dan Mangan The Luce Family War, by Vicky Ward I Raped Luce Kid, 13 -- 1967 Confession, by Philip Recchia Luce Family's Secret Shame of "Sex Abuse," by Mark Bulliet
New York Post Caroline Smitter Nicholson's suit seeks $15 million in damages from her mother, Leila Hadley Luce, and her stepfather, Henry Luce III, scion of the famed Luce publishing family, both of whom she accuses of acting sexually toward her as a young girl. The suit in Manhattan Supreme Court also accuses the Luces of "improper and unwelcome contact . . . of a sexual nature" with their granddaughter Faith, 14, and of communicating with the child at school over her mother Nicholson's objections. The New York couple vehemently denied Nicholson's claims. Nicholson is "psychotic, and she lies," said Henry Luce, 78, who wed Hadley in 1990 after previous multiple marriages by both of them, and whose father co-founded Time Inc. "I promise you it isn't true," said Leila Hadley, 76, author of the books "Give Me the World" and "A Journey with Elsa Cloud." Nicholson, 44, blames Leila Hadley for having her photographed topless on a bed as a 5-year-old for a picture published in Harper's Bazaar in 1964. In a profile of photographer Bob Richardson, The New Yorker called it a "beautiful and disturbing nude," and noted that in "another picture, she is coiffed and dolled up like Brigitte Bardot." "I remember vividly crying and stamping my feet, and refusing to get undressed in front of this guy . . . I felt violated," Nicholson said of the photo. In the complaint, Nicholson accuses Henry Luce of "attempting to rape" her when she was 13. OTHER ARTICLES:

Son of Time Co-Founder Sued in Sex
Case May 23, 2003, 1:39 PM EDT NEW YORK -- Henry Luce III, son of a co-founder of Time magazine, and his wife, travel writer Leila Hadley Luce, are being sued for $15 million by their daughter, who accuses them of years of sexual abuse. The Luces say the claims are false. In papers filed Thursday in state court, Caroline Nicholson said her 77-year-old mother "sexually molested and psychologically abused" her from young childhood through adolescence. The lawsuit alleges that Henry Luce III, Nicholson's 78-year-old stepfather, "repeatedly acted in a sexual manner towards the plaintiff ... including sleeping in the nude with her and on more than one occasion attempting to rape the plaintiff" when she was a minor. The Luces rejected the allegations. "It's not true, any of this," Leila Hadley Luce told The Associated Press. She said her daughter is under psychiatric care in Minneapolis and was at one point hospitalized. She said she last saw her daughter in September, when she made "all sorts of allegations" and demanded $500,000 for her children's education. Her husband, former publisher of Time and Fortune magazines, told the New York Post that Nicholson is "psychotic and lies." The court papers allege that Nicholson's mother recently tried to fondle Nicholson's 13-year-old daughter. Nicholson's lawyer, John Aretakis, said his client filed the lawsuit "because she wants to stop the cycle of abuse on children from reaching the next generation." Aretakis said the parents' comments about Nicholson's mental health don't surprise him. "I think she goes to a therapist. I'm sure she has a lot to talk about. She had a very traumatic childhood," he said. "Caroline is sacrificing an awful lot to protect her child." Nicholson, 44, has been married since 1987. She is currently in England, Aretakis said. Her daughter, now 14, goes to school in Scotland, he said. Copyright © 2003, The Associated Press Luce ma rips daughter's abuse claim
By LEO STANDORA The wife of Time-Life publishing scion Henry Luce 3rd branded their daughter "totally cuckoo" and said her claim she was sexually abused as a child was false. "It's not true, any of this," travel writer Leila Hadley Luce told The Associated Press. Luce, who lives in Manhattan, said her daughter "hasn't been quite right" for two years, is under psychiatric care in Minneapolis and was hospitalized at one point. Caroline Nicholson, 44, said in a $15 million lawsuit filed Thursday in Manhattan State Supreme Court that her 77-year-old mother "sexually molested and psychologically abused" her from young childhood through adolescence. The lawsuit also alleges Henry Luce, Nicholson's 78-year-old stepfather, "repeatedly acted in a sexual manner towards the plaintiff ... including sleeping in the nude with her and on more than one occasion attempting to rape the plaintiff" when she was a minor. Leila Luce also was accused of recently trying to fondle Nicholson's 13-year-old daughter and take a bath with her. Luce suggested her daughter filed the suit because she's "money mad." She said she last saw Nicholson in September, when she made "all sorts of allegations" and demanded $500,000 for her children's education. Henry Luce, chairman of the Henry Luce Foundation, is the son of the co-founder of Time and Fortune magazines and a former publisher. He told one interviewer his stepdaughter is "psychotic" and tells "lies." Nicholson's lawyer, John Aretakis, said the Luces' comments about his client's mental health were no surprise. "I think she goes to a therapist," he said. "I'm sure she has a lot to talk about. She had a very traumatic childhood." Originally published on May 24, 2003

Luces' Daughter Accuses Them Of Sex
Abuse Henry Luce III, son of a co-founder of Time magazine, and his wife, travel writer Leila Hadley Luce, were sued for $15 million Thursday by their daughter, who accused them of years of sexual abuse. The daughter, Caroline Nicholson, said in court papers that her mother "sexually molested and psychologically abused" her from young childhood through adolescence. She said her mother allowed her to have sex with strangers when she was as young as 11. Nicholson's graphic papers allege that Henry Luce III, who is her stepfather, "repeatedly acted in a sexual manner towards the plaintiff ... including sleeping in the nude with her and on more than one occasion attempting to rape the plaintiff" when she was a minor. Henry Luce III, 78, is a former publisher of Time and Fortune magazines. He and his 77-year- ld wife were unavailable for comment Thursday. A woman who answered the telephone at their home said they were out for the evening and took a message for them. Nicholson's lawyer, John Aretakis, said he didn't know who was representing the Luces. Nicholson's papers, filed in Manhattan's state Supreme Court, said "this action seeks to protect the children of the plaintiff ... from harm." Nicholson said she has forbidden her parents from seeing her teenage daughter but they have done so anyway. Recently, Nicholson's court papers say with respect to her 13-year- old daughter, "Leila Hadley Luce has attempted to fondle and touch (her granddaughter) and repeatedly attempted to get into the bath with (the girl)." Aretakis said his client filed the lawsuit "because she wants to stop the cycle of abuse on children from reaching the next generation." "She's trying her best to be a good mother," he said. The lawsuit alleges negligence, harassment, battery, sexual assault and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Nicholson, who married a history professor in 1987 and lives in Minnesota, is currently in England, Aretakis said. Her daughter goes to school in Scotland, he said. Leila Hadley Luce is the author of numerous books on exotic travel. Time Inc. was founded in 1923 by Henry R. Luce and Briton Hadden. The first weekly issue of Time magazine was published the same year. Copyright © 2003, The Associated Press *************

Back in the 50s and 60s, Time and Life founder, Henry Luce (#1) was considered one of the CIA's most cooperative sources in the media. Luce, another of Dulles' (CIA director) personal friends in the media, was said to freely allow staff members to work with the CIA and willingly provide credentials for agents who lacked journalistic experience. Throughout the 50's and 60's Time correspondents attended CIA briefing dinners, and Luce encouraged his foreign correspondents to meet with CIA officials after returning from trips abroad. The 50s and 60s was another world -- the cold war world. HENRY A. GRUNWALD, a former Editor-in Chief of Time, Inc. is on the Council on Foreign Relation task force on US intelligence, that made the recommendation (1996) for CIA's use of journalists. What might these recommendation be? WASHINGTON (AP) excerpts: CIA Director John Deutch acknowledged last week that he has the right to waive 1977 rules that forbid assigning spies disguised as reporters, or enlisting reporters to serve as spies. CIA director only spoke about CIA involvement in general. You wouldn't expect him to name the journalist, do you? Even during the post-Watergate investigation (Church Committee 1973) CIA director Colby only named one journalists out of 400 he reported working for the CIA. OK, but what about this "HENRY A. GRUNWALD, a former Editor-in Chief of Time, Inc. is on the Council on Foreign Relation task force on US intelligence, that made the recommendation (1996) for CIA's use of journalists." Could we see these recommendations and the connection of the Editor-in-Chief of Time to them? The Council On Foreign Relation (CFR) Task Force on Intelligence published this recommendation (1996) ... the president and the DCI should consider creating a formal intelligence reserve corps for dealing with so-called "pop-up" issues. Such a corps could consist of former intelligence professionals, academics, and others with particular geographic and functional expertise. Working with a point of contact in the intelligence community, they would be asked to collect data, provide reports, and be available to work full time if a crisis suddenly developed in their area and if their expertise were required. This is a pretty tame statement! It says nothing specifically about "journalists, missionaries and peace corp. workers." It sounds like they want to use people outside the intelligence bureaucracy who know what's going on in some area of the world. It sounds like common sense, not a plan to use journalists to plant false information. When the recommendation was first publish it caused quite a controversy (#1). a) It advocated the use of "academics, and others with particular geographic and functional expertise" by the CIA. In plain language, it means people like journalists, missionaries and peace corp. workers. b) the task force included senior members of American media which means there are willing collaborators at the highest level of American media.
Powerful media figures in the task
force included Reaction to the CFR recommendations ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ # 1) The journalist Union USA was against the use of journalists by the CIA, but they have no way of finding out. They could do nothing other than protesting loudly. http://www.dcia.com/hawes.html SOCIETY OF PROFESSIONAL JOURNALISTS OPPOSES CFR RECOMMENDATION

More on the subject: http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/RANCHO/POLITICS/MOCK/mockingbird.html The Subversion Of The Free Press By The CIA According to this site Henry Luce III is on the board of directors of Time magazine. http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Trilateralism/JimmyCarter_Trilat.html Henry Luce III, a director of Time magazine (along with Hedley Donovan) H Luce foundation of which Henry Luce III is CEO, has an asset of $1.1 billion most of which is in shares in Time Warner Inc. http://www.hluce.org/4misfm.html The late Henry R. Luce, co-founder and editor-in-chief of Time Inc., established the Henry Luce Foundation [AB-1] in 1936. Today it has assets of about $1.1 billion. Most of the foundation's wealth derived from stock donated by Henry R. Luce and left in his will after his death in 1967. Now that claim didn't pan out Yu! "H Luce foundation of which Henry Luce III is CEO, has" $USD 368 million in Time Warner stock as of a year ago. Time Warner stock's latest capitalization is about $USD 74 billion, or less than 0.5% of Time Warner equity! That doesn't give Henry Luce III much leverage as a board member to interfere in the journalism of TIME or CNN or any Time Warner functions! Should read: Time Warner stock's latest capitalization is about $USD 74 billion. "H Luce foundation of which Henry Luce III is CEO, has" $USD 368 million in Time Warner stock as of a year ago, or less than 0.5% of Time Warner equity! That doesn't give Henry Luce III much leverage as a board member to interfere in the journalism of TIME or CNN or any Time Warner functions! Time Warner is the world's largest media group now after some mega-merger last year. You have to be crazy to think that some individual have to own 50% to have an influence. Of course you may claim that the director of Time Magazine has no influence on reporting, but these are small circle of like minded people drawn together through mutual selection. Looking at the pattern of CIA involvement in media; when did they ever go through the open channel? Would ownership of 0.5% of a company's stock give you influence to plant false information in stories released by that company's media outlets? Especially false stories about a very large and fast growing country the company hopes to expand its market into? 3) Henry Luce III's wife, Leila Hadley Luce is board member of Tibet house. Tibet House was started by the CIA. Again I'm going to ask if you could give us some documentation for that claim (that Tibet House was started by the CIA). Tibet House was started by CIA (declassified state Department doc.) http://odur.let.rug.nl/ahc/nch/action14.htm [AB-2] Ya, you're right about that one. I should have checked my files as we've talked about U.S. C.I.A. aid for Tibetan exiles in the 1960s. Sorry about that ....But like I keep saying that was the Cold War -- another era. The U.S. was out to undermine a revolutionary Marxist Leninst state ideologically opposed to "peaceful coexistence." Is it out to undermine a growing capitalist trading partner? CIA involvement in Tibet in the 60s was only partially declassified after 30 years. To read about CIA involvement in Tibet today you need to wait another 30 years. You seem to argue that because USA trades with China there is no need for CIA involvement. Think it hard again! You may come to a different conclusion.

U.S. vs. China: The crew of the U.S. 'surveillance' plane which collided with a Chinese fighter jet and made an 'emergency landing' on a Chinese island on April 1 was released and returned to the U.S. when the U.S. government partially relented on its refusal to apologize 11 days later! The classic arrogant attitude of imperialism, which considers all lives other than those of Americans and Europeans to be nearly worthless, was only one part of the U.S. government's delay in saying it was sorry about the death of the Chinese pilot. The scenario reflected more than four decades of U.S. sabre-rattling; the U.S. policy of confrontation and threats in East Asia did not begin just over four weeks ago. Ever since the late 1940's the U.S. government has been aware that it cannot achieve its goal of reversing the revolutions and restoring capitalism in China and North Korea other than by (direct and indirect) MILITARY means. The U.S. government continues to press for a trying of facts about who was 'at fault' for the collision. However, the collision was NOT a traffic accident. The incident was the inevitable consequence of the government's decades-long policy of U.S. imperialism of uninterrupted spying on and threatening not only China, but North Korea as well. While diplomatic negotiations (occurring as Change-Links goes to press) may end the standoff over the fate of the spy plane itself, unchanged is the U.S. insistence (with imperialist arrogance) that its military has a 'right' to continue its provocative spy flights. As soon as the Chinese Revolution began, the U.S. began pouring aid and arms to Chiang Kai- Shek, leader of the Kuomingtang (Chinese Nationalist Party). As the revolution / uprising on the mainland routed his forces, Chiang Kai-shek and his followers fled to Formosa (Taiwan) For more than four decades, the U.S. government, which ever-so-loudly carps about lack of 'elections' wherever there are 'non-friendly' heads of state, had no complaints about either tyranny in Taiwan or lack of real elections there. Quite the opposite! -- Until 1972, the virulently anti Communist government of Taiwan (with c. 14 million people) was made the voice in international bodies (e.g., the U.N.) for ALL of China (then with c. 1 billion 14 million people). Although the form of Taiwan's government has changed from dictatorship to 'democracy,' what remains unchanged is that neocolonial government's role as U.S.'s massively-armed military surrogate. Soon to be added by the U.S. to Taiwan's massive military materiel is an even more powerful 'anti-missile system.' Taiwan's rulers are not the U.S. government's sole surrogate warriors against China. The U.S. government did not (and does not) want to pitch its anti-China propaganda solely to conservatives, but to liberals as well. Few have served that role better or more willingly than the Dalai Lama, whose personal claim to be a pacifist and solely interested in defending his people (Tibetans) is taken at face value and repeated loudly by many liberals. by Richard Gere and in a listing in the April calendar of Change-Links (which includes a protest for the junior Lama as a 'political prisoner'). It is likely that ticket sales from the Westside, etc., will fill Pauley Pavilion when the Dalai Lama speaks there on May 26. Prior to 1959, Tibet was a feudal theocracy lorded over by the Dalai Lama -- the same one whose chants for the press include his strident denials of any interest in politics or posts. As an article in August 16, 1999 Newsweek, "CIA - A Secret War on the Roof of the World" explained: "In 1958, the Dalai Lama was a 23-year-old god-king on the verge of losing his realm. The Chinese communists were closing in, and Tibet's spiritual leader was desperate. That's when he first heard that the Central Intelligence Agency was stepping up its activities in his domain. By the mid-'60s, the Tibet operation was costing Washington $1.7 million a year, according to intelligence documents. That included $500,000 to support 2,100 guerrillas based in Nepal and $180,000 worth of "subsidy to the Dalai Lama." Although $180,000 would barely buy a half house here in L.A. today, at the time, the CIA's payment to the Dalai Lama was greater than the combined annual income of 1,000 typical Tibetans. The CIA eventually stopped funding this project --- NOT because the Dalai Lama objected, but for the same reasons (and in the same way) that the CIA stopped direct funding of the Bay of Pigs fighters. The CIA saw that the expenditure no longer yielded any bang for the bucks. When confronted with evidence that his guerrillas were funded through the CIA, the Dalai Lama stated his brother had kept the operation secret from him. Reagan's I-was-out-of-the-loop excuse during Contra-Gate testimony involved not only perjury, but plagiarism! ANY calls for the U.S. government to pressure China to change its policies are reactionary to the core. Washington (which feigns concern about national rights as it provides bullets and bull*** to attack the rights of Palestinians) and its allies are the #1 ENEMY of the rights of ALL victims of discrimination and national oppression, INCLUDING Tibetans. Despite the crocodile tears shed by the Dalai Lama for his people, the U.S. (and the Dalai Lama's) anti-China campaign is NOT a campaign to ?introduce? or restore democracy or national rights. It is part and parcel of a propaganda campaign by those who wish to restore CAPITALISM (and the influence of Wall Street and Washington) in China. One of the ABC's of socialism is (to use Lenin's words), "the right to self-determination" of oppressed nationalities. Contrasting the internationalist policies of the leadership of revolutionary Cuba with the Chinese rulers' policies of narrow nationalism and discrimination against its national minorities (including Tibetans) will be the subject of the next article of this Change-Links series. _______________ American-Buddha Librarian's Comments: [AB-1] The Henry Luce Foundation wrote:

[AB-2] AmLearning (aka Elsa Cloud, Leila Luce's daughter) wrote: The CIA started Tibet House, using the Dalai Lama and his first ordained Western monk, [Robert] Thurman, now president of Tibet House in NYC, to do the job. Leila Luce is on the board of trustees of Tibet House, she is the wife of Henry Luce lll, whose father founded Time and was an early supporter of the CIA, using Time magazine journalists as operatives. Mrs. Luce is also on the board of Tricycle. "In 1992, she joined the board of Tricycle: The Buddhist Review, for which she is also a consulting editor." She has just been sued by her daughter and granddaughter for committing sexual abuses on her daughter and granddaughter. In addition to training agents and paramilitary units for operations inside Tibet, the CIA took other steps to aid the Tibetan resistance. A CIA subsidiary, the Committee for Free Asia, financed a trip that Thubten Norbu, another one of the Dalai Lama's brothers, made to the United States in the early 1950s to plead for American support for Tibetan independence. When Tibetans lobbied for the passage of a United Nations resolution that expressed concern over PRC policies in Tibet in 1959, the CIA provided information to sympathetic journalists and editors in an effort to build up public support for the resolution. The Agency also assisted the Dalai Lama's government-in-exile by giving a $180,000 annual donation to the Dalai Lama's charitable trust fund until 1967 and by subsidizing a training program for Tibetan officials and agents at Cornell University. It also purchased Tibetan art works for display at the government-in-exile's Tibet House in New Delhi. CALL FOR WITNESSES: Can you corroborate the claims of abuse alleged by the Luce Family children? Do you have recollections or evidence that would help to prove those claims in court? If so, please forward your information to Caroline Nicholson, nicho059@umn.edu and Victoria Barlow, nickyskye@yahoo.com. These links are posted at the request of Victoria and Carolyn, who have already been contacted by various witnesses. If you know anything, you can help.
