ton, Capitalization of financial power
and tyranny.
Andrew Jackson, the great Democrat,
is praised because he smashed the great
central bank. They told him that that
bank was entitled to certain represen-
tatiOn in Congress- and he said, 'By the
Eternal" that if anything in the country
could compete with the Government in
that way he would kill it-and he did
kill it.
Now the descendants of his own
Democratic party are proposing bank
ing scheme which gets as near to CEN
trail Government bank as it dares to get.
The managers are to be chosen in part
by the owners of private capital and in
part by the Government of the United
States.
And private capital is to make five per
cent prOfit-which, by the way, does not
tempt private capital at all, for AMER
ICAN private capital is a pretty hungry
capital and is used to rich food
The fathers of this new system praise
it; the benefciaries of the old system
curse it. Stocks first hop up, then fall
down; the people, as a whole, do not
know what it is all about, and the CAPT
talists and the lawmakers know just as
little as the people.
& &
About the actual inside workings of
money we know as little as we do about
the nature of electricity.
But with money, as with electricity,
we can watch EFFECTS PRODUCED;
we can know where the power is and ap-
ply it where it is needed
We know about money that the lack
of it is a curse preventing development
And an Oversupply of it, artifciaIly
made, is worse curse, causing paralysis
and panic.
And timidity in the minds of money
owners. however inspired, causes hoard
ing and chiIls the business world.

egg which is laid by the Democratic hen,
is a complicated attempt to solve the un-
sOlvable, feeble sort of an effort to check
the hopeless private bank system, COM
bined with the equally foolish effort to
lift ones self by the boot straps.
The banks are to loan money on what
is called good security And that good Sc
curity is the banks assets. And the banks
assets are chiefly WHAT PEOPLE OWE
THE BANKS.
Therefore, we call it the public debt,
an asset, and loan money on DEBT, in
stead of calling actual property an asset
and lOaning money on actual property.
What is going to be done in the long
run? ''Nor you, nor |, nor nobody
knows" as the children used to sing.
But this much is certain:
A WAY WILL BE FOUND IN THE
END TO ENABLE THE G GOVERNMENT
TO LOAN DIRECTLY TO THE CITI-
ZENS, NOT LENDING TO THEM,
THROUGH BANKS, ON THEIR DEBTS,
BUT DIRECT ON THEIR PROPERTY.
The Government is destined to be
more and more central pool of wealth,
toward which the cOuntry's money will
flow, and from which it must be pumped
back again into the pockets of the people
The parcels post, which will be intelli-
gently and usefully developed eventually,
will pour its tens and hundreds of mill
ions 2,hually into the Government peck
etbOOk, giving to the Government all the
vast revenues that the private express
companies have colIected-and more.
And the postal banking system, which
will also be popularity developed in such a
way as to make the total deposits amount
to hundreds of millions, will put vast cap
ital in Government hands
Before any of us are very much older

oIies railroads, telcgraphs, and telephones
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-07-06

We know that money is to commerce,
industry and manufactures and to mate
rial development what water is to the
crops and knowledge to the mind.
We know that the world of finance is
the feeding ground of the most cunning,
useless and pitiless sharks that the human
race develops, from the pawnbrOker who
charges a sick mother twenty-five per
cent for loan on her baby's clothing, to
the eminently respectable banking firm
that charges a sick railroad in such
fashion as to put it in bankruptcy
We know that we have in this country
more than twenty thousand different
bankers, every one of them middleman
PRODUCING nothing.
Every bank means that there is
president of bank, an intelligent man,
who spends his days shaving notes, PRO
DUCING nothing.
A cashier and assistant cashier, vice
president perhaps, tellers of different
kinds, are all NON-PRODUCERS.
The farmers who do produce wealth
and create it pay an average of eight per
cent for the money they bOrrOw-which
is criminal usury
And business men are bled most Sc
verely when their needs are greatest.
And when money is needed to move
the crops it cannot be had in sufficient
amounts, although it is lying idle, piled
up in vaults
And our stupid banking system COM
pels every bank to keep stored away, UN-
USED, great part of its golden machin-
cry that ought to be at wOrk-which
means that hundreds of millions lie idle
all the time. A system compelling a
farmer to keep in his barn three mules
doing nothing, for six mules on the road
would be no more stupid than our bank
reserve system.
The new system, the new financial
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-07-06

especially will bring other hundreds of
millions into the national golden pool
and all that must be pumped out again and
scattered wisely, just as water that keeps
running back to the ocean is taken up by
the suns rays and scattered in clouds and
dropped upon the soil again.
The Government to-day scatters its
money in this way:
1t gives the money to private bankers,
estimable gentlemen individually, but po-
lite and legal usurers in reality.
The banker owns Government bond,
upon which the Government pays him
three or four per cent. And against this
bond which pays him interest the Govern
ment permits him to issue currency which
is REAL MONEY. And the banker loans
this currency to the business man for five
or six per cent, and to the farmer for
eight or ten or twelve per cent, so that
he gets three or four per cent from the
Government on his own money invested
in bonds, and at the same time he gets
from the Government the right to dupli-
cate the bonds in the shape of currency
and to loan it out at usuriOus rates to the
public.
1t may not be possible for the mind of
man to understand money and its mean
ing. But the mind of man, which is not
able to understand electricity, is at least
able to USE it intelligently
And man will eventually use money
intelligently, and the people will borrow
from the Government (that is to say, from
themselves direct) at fair rate of interest,
and get away from the system of twenty
odd thousand bankers, each one person
ally very honest, estimable blOOdsucker.
getting all the interest and profit possible
in times of prosperity, and first to yell
murder and shut his front door in times
of panic.
We don't know anything about cleo
tricity, but we know how to get it out of
Niagara Falls and send it where it is
needed
We don't know anything about money.
But we OUGHT to know enough to get it
out of the central pool of credit and gold,
which is the Government, and send it
where it is needed.

uOn; and they don't know what electric
ity is, and they don't understand its
workings.
Only few days since great eIectri-
cal expert, testifying in a patent suit, ex-
planned that certain electrical machine
did certain things to the Hertzian waves
He didn't really know how the machine
did it or what went on inside of the ma
chine And he might have added that
neither he nor anybody else living knows
what the Hertzian wave really is or any
thing fundamental about electricity.
We explain our ignorance concerning
electric power by saying that we have
conquered electricity only recently and
haven't had time to get acquainted with
it.
But what about money.
We have been using money for many
a dreary century. We have worked for
it, begged for it, bargained for it, fought
for it. married and murdered to get it
AND STILL WE KNOW NOTHING
ABOUT MONEY.
We have used as money" slaves,
comes the word "pecuniary"; we have
used wampum and gold, silver and cOpra

have used as a token of value, or as
money" and we don't know anything
really about money to-day.

ignorant concerning the great trade prob

NAPLES, Feb 1.-The Neapolitan
strike against the higher cost of liv-
ing continued today, but rioting was
checked by the presence of troops. Sol
diers patrolled the streets and the
city had every appearance of being
under martial law, though military
rule was not actually proclaimed.
Practically all of the working men
of Naples agreed to strike as a pro-
test against the increased cost of liv-
ing produced by higher duties impos-
ed on imported foodstuffs in order to
increase the revenue. Women joined
in the movement. StiSet cars were
stopped, shops closed, mills and fac
tories were shut down and all bust
ness was at standstill
Mass meetings were held yesterday
in halls and on street corners and in
flammatory speeches against the
church and the state melted riots.
At the request of municipal authori-
ties, Italian troops were rushed here.
The soldiers were forced to use VIC.
lence and many men and women were
injured. Dozens CT arrests were made
Today there was apprehension that
the movement would spread to nearby
towns and perhaps throughout Italy.
