A MONEY TRUST

Two meetings of the Monetary
commission will soon be held in
Chicago to prepare its final report
to Congress. 1t safe to say the
Aldrich plan for great central
bank, with branches in the great
money centers of the country, will
be recommended.
The chief objection Is that such
bank is monopoly, the most
powerful and dangerous monopoly
that the American people could
create. -
At one time or another, ten pres
idents have been parties to bank
controversy and ten presidents are
on record in opposition to CEN
trail bank.
Madison vetoed a bill to char
ter a central bank; jackson vetoed
a bill to re-chartera central bank /;
Tyler twice vetoed bills to charter
central banks.
President jefferson, speaking OF
the first central bank established
by congress said, This institu-
ton is one OF the most deadly hos
tility against the principles and the
form of our constitution. An in
stitution like his, penetrating by
its branches, every part of the
union, acting by command and in
phalanx, may, in critical moment,
upset the government"
President Van Buren,. ut a banquet
one night proposed this toast, "Un-
compromising hostility to the I'm
tied States Bank"
Theodore Roosevelt, in his life OF
Benton, says: "Good ground Gun
be shown for thinking Jackson's
veto proper"
Henry Cabot Lodge, in his life OF
Hamilton. says: "A central bank
with branches, such AS We had in
Jackson's time, would be danger
Gus to aperilous magnitude"
The people everywhere arc cry
ing against trusts and monopolics
and yet in December IA bill will be
introduced which will provide for
the greatest trust ever devised by
man. The argument in favor of
this trust will be; We need more
money with which to carry on the
business OF the country. And yet
We have 1920, 0O0, 900 of gold
locked up In the treasury of the
government which could be put in
to circulation II tho banks would
permit II.
