Beat the Devil (1953)
Major Jack Ross, expounds to Billy Dannreuther: "Worry? Just one minute laddies. I've just two or three words to say to you laddies, and thats don't worry, don't ever worry. I'm in a position to know secret information. The Rosicrucians. The great white brotherhood. The high secret orders. But you've no faith. You must have faith, faith in power, secret power. Men who guard the trust from the deepest inside of the watchamacallit. Mystic rulers, all one club, chained together by one purpose, one idea. Mankinds champions. Follow me, Billy?"
