The Free Zone Association purchased the rights last year 
to the 1934 book written by Dr. Nordenholtz entitled, Scientologie.  
Due to the name similarity and parallels in content to the philosophy
of L. Ron Hubbard's Scientology, the Free Zone Assoc. decided to
preserve this book by republishing it in its original context.
The library of congress number is: ISBN 3-9804724-1-8.

We put the first two chapters of the book on our home page. 
There are no copyright violations to be found in the contents of
either of our home pages.

I should like to mention, this letter from the church's attorneys
comes on the heels of our bank account being closed on 3 June 1996. 
You can read of our account being closed and see the letter we 
received from our bank, by visiting our home page at
http://www.freezone.org. You will find it in the Statutes and
membership section.
