almost like college yell: ave want
more money" the more money which
they desire being nothing more nor less
than currency run off in the printing
presses of the great bureau of engrav-
ing and printing in washington.
Whether it is the first or the second
type of imitation that is demanded.
weather it is the printing press money
or the money issued against gold as
security, the results are the same. 1t
is to be remembered in this connection
that none of us can obtain gold from
the treasury. The Roosevelt admins
tration demanded of and obtained from
congress legislation which definitely
prohibited payment of gold for none
tary use by the treasury under any cir
cumstances except for the settlement
of balances owed foreign nations. But
that fact has not deferred demands by
inflationists. They are calling and will
continue to call for more paper money,
and with every call the prices you pay
for commodities are bound to increase
that is, they will increase until or
unless there is a release of gold again
for circulation as money.
So. it is quite apparent that as long
as this influx of gold continues and as
long as other nations are harassed by
monetary manipulation in the United
States, we are continually threatened
with business boom" which is moth
ing less than imitation of credit. The
real danger confronting this country,
then, lies in that direction. Summar-
lied, the threat is this: if that inf1a
Zionist business boom" gets started, no
power on earth is able or will be able
to stop it. The next and final step
after that is complete destruction of
our currency, and medium of exchange.
Political developments in the last few
weeks have been completely dominated
by the splurge of ac-
Stirred by tivity on the part
Hoover of former President
Herbert Hoover His
pot shots at the New Deal in several
speeches have agitated the Democrats
much more than they are willing to
admit and, notwithstanding assertions
of satisfaction, they have thrown a
new fear into the laps of the Roosevelt
New Dealers.
But, If the Hoover speeches have ex-
cited the New Dealers and the con-
sentative Democrats, they have almost
precipitated a riot among the Repub-
licans of whom he must be said to be,
at least, the titular leader. The bulk
of the Republicans look upon Mr..
Hoover, because of these recent
speeches, as al potential Republican
nominee for the Presidency against Mr..
Roosevelt next year. They look upon
him, further, as an individual who Is
likely to disrupt plans that contem-
plate reconciliation, a love feast,
among the various factions of the Re
publican party. They have been strug-
Cling to lay base for this love feast
and because of the intense hatred that
some of their number have for Mr..
Hoover, his activity has opened this
breach again, made it a blood-red
wound.
Political observers and commentators
have shown all manner of excitement
because Mr.. Hoover has made no state
ment whether he will or will not be
candidate for the Republican nominal
tion. In plain words. they have been
trying valiantly to conduct a cam
paign that will smoke out Mr.. Hoover
and make him say whether he is or is
not candidate.
All of the efforts to find out what
Mr.. Hoover proposes to do have failed
and will continue to fail, even with the
underground work of the New Deal, to
bring from him a statement as to his
purposes He will announce them in
his own good time and his statement
will be definite when it is made.
Personally, from all of the informa-
ton l have been able to assemble, l
do not believe that Mr.. Hoover has
any intention Of seeking the nomina-
ton. / am convinced his purpose is
directed wholly and completely to one
end: he fears the New Deal and he Is
trying with all of the power that he
possesses to acquaint the country with
his views which are obviously in oppo-
sition to the theories and policies and
experiments of the New Deal. From
sources which consider to be faith
full, because they always have been
accurate heretofore, IT is apparent to
me that Mr.. Hoover desires to lend his
help in acquainting the country with
the things in the New Deal which he
regards as dangerous to our nations
we'll being and that beyond such a pur-
pose he is content to enjoy life as
fisherman and vacationist.
But there is another phase of this
situation which seems to me to war
rant consideration. While some of the
-Hooverites have been denouncing
him, even calling him names under
