by prearranged signal, just as the prow of the ship cleared the bridge, the men in the front of the ship broke into a tremendous cheer which carried on down the length of the ship as she went under the bridge. Suddenly everyone was talking to everyone excitedly. Men who scarcely knew each other were pounding each other on the back as though they were brothers. America regained some of its reality for these men and communication and affinity suddenly went up. Fast! Unfortunately, the spontaneous incidents which cause affinity, reality and communication to increase are not as common as the incidents which break affinity, reality and communication. In the case of a large break of affinity, dianetic processing is the surest and most efficient means of halting the downward spiral. PROCESSING AND ARC Returning to a moment when an ARC break occurred will bring back to a preclear the full effect of this break and will allow him to compute the effect which this break has had upon him. Once the analytical mind grasps the fact that this break has acted as a survival depressant and the incident has been recounted a sufficient number of times, it loses its force and the lock will have no further effect on the individual. The finding and reducing of ARC breaks is even more important to persons who are badly occluded or who are near a psychotic break than it is for the average individual. The reducing of the locks occasioned by ARC breaks is the quickest possible way to raise the tone level of a preclear and thus to procure the energy by which further processing may be made more efficient and fruitful. The techniques for running locks which have already been outlined in the Handbook* and in previous issues of the Bulletin are quite sufficient for the reducing of ARC locks. However, there has come into being a fairly extensive technology which concerns itself primarily with the quick reduction of ARC locks. These techniques will be fully outlined m the forthcoming publication: Dianetics: The Science of Survival; Simplified, Faster Techniques of Dianetic Processing. Articles concerned with these techniques will appear from time to time in The Dianetic Auditor’s Bulletin. [* Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health by L. Ron Hubbard.] RADIO BROADCASTS 7—15 February 1951 Beginning in December 1950, L. Ron Hubbard gave a series of fifteen-minute lectures over 126 radio stations On the West Coast of America they were broadcast daily, Monday through Friday, at 10:15 a.m. These lectures were recorded on phonograph discs and were distributed to radio stations by Progressive Broadcasting Co. Seven of the lectures given in February 1951 are listed below: 5102C07 R/BRCST Group Dianetics—how to straighten out a group— the group and the individual 5102C08 R/BRCST Dianetics—its ability to handle community’s, individual’s and nation’s problems 5102C09 R/BRCST Valence—Straight Memory 5102C12 R/BRCST Valence—Grief and Valence 5102C13 R/BRCST Husbands and Wives (etc.) Auditing Each Other 5102C14 R/BRCST Communication Breaks: Seeing, Hearing, Speaking, Etc. 5102C15 R/BRCST Tone Scale of Individuals and Nations 1
