Why Does the Government
Pau Interest ?

an Thursday September 18th, the Government, which
u means you and your friends paid five hundred and
thirty-fve millions to redeem Treasury certificates
1t also paid hundred millions in interest Interest is
expensive when you get into the billions The interest
that Europe this country would pay the BILL OF course
but it is too late to worry about that
We had hysterical, generous fit and must pay for
it. This however you might think Instead OF issuing
Treasury certificates and paying gigantic sums in interest
the Government could perfectly well issue currencynever
mind if people call it fat moneyand at its leisure the
country could redeem the currency instead OF redeeming
Treasury certificates and PAY NO INTEREST Financers
will tell you that couldn't be DONE But you must
Der that nanciers the that get the interest that
the Government pays needessly
If fnancier able to issue his notes, to be
used currency and at his convenience buy them back
without paying any interest don't you think he would do
itf Do you suppose he would insist paying, the
Government does, millions upon millions in interest
lessyi
Not only would the issuing of few hundred millions Of
currency from time to time make unnecessary the issue
of Treasury certificates and tens of millions in in
teres but it would also stimulate business make money
"easier" the bankers put it.
The country hasn't money enough to carry its
affairs. That is evident when builders cannot borrow
cep by paying criminal usuy in the form of commissions
for loans and when financial institutions break the
laws against usury without hesitation

Safeguard
Our History
40 more sinister development has
occurred in our day than the


occurred in our day than the
~ denaturing of American history
textbooks by pro-British revisers.
In The Sunday Times of July 3,
10, II and "a last, Charles Grant
Miller revealed in astonishing detail
the lengths to which, this develop
ment has gone.
He pointed out that MORETHAN
HALF of the textbooks used in our
public schools have been, "revised"
to belittle the authors of our indie
pendence; to decry our political sep
aration from Great Britain as mis-
take, to minimize the heroism of
great Americans on land and sea,
and thus to instil in the minds OF
our young a belief in British supe-
riority and sense of special obllga-
ton to the British Empire.
Now that the public schools are
again in session, their teaching OF
American history should be scruti-
nized with added care.
Parents should examine the school
histories by the light of Mr.. Miller's
revelations.
Where this poison of foreign prop
uganda has crept in a public issue
should be drawn and carried, if
necessary, into the elections.
No school board, no superintend-
emit of schools, should be permitted
to get away with this perversion of
historic truth stealthily. Make them
defend their policies before the peo-
pie and submit to a referendum.
The lead in this campaign against
insult to our revolutionary sires
might we'll be taken by our honest
patriotic societies, especially such
organizations as the National So
ciety of the Sons of the American
Revolution, whose president general,
Wallace McCamant, of Portland,
Ore, writes to Mr.. Miller:
II have read with great pleas
ure your articles in The Washing
ton Times. They are certainly
fine literature.
IT am not sure that I agree
with you on all of your positions.
! want to be understood as feeling
very grateful for the service Eng
land rendered civilization in the
world war. I do not think that
the feeling which some Of us have
in this respect is any reason for
emasculating the history Of the
Revolution, and I am heartily in
accord with your campaign to re-
sist this latter effort. I share with
you the belief that proper instruc-
ton in American history is the
best possible stimulus to, patriot
ism. The story of our heroic past
should be taught with dramatic
power, and this cannot be done
unless the textbooks lay the
proper foundation.
81 should be glad to see your
articles given wide currency"
America must remain independent
In thought if it is to remain indie
pendent in fact.
