half billions Of money in tie ma
ton, by reason Of the fact that
credit money is created by bank
loans.
Social Credit would take away
from our financial institutions the
privilege of creating money and
put it into the hands Of congress,
as by the stipulation Of the Con-
stitution. Collective society in
stead of the banks would issue
credit money, without interest or
obligation to pay the principle. All
the assets, goods and services OF
the collective society of the nation
would become collateral for credit
money that would be furnished
largely to the consumers to enable
them to buy needed goods and
services under a discount to the
buyer, and the retailer would be
reimbursed by credit money issu'
ed by the collective society of Oul
nation.

Social Credit is rapidly gaining

The banks unloaded upon the
public this credit money IN the
following manner. When a ous,

money to float a new business en-
terprise they naturally went TO tie
banks. offered collateral, and op-
tanned a loan. Rarely was sucn
a loan by the bank made in actual
currency, but by credit money
The amount of the loan was en-
tered upon the bank ledger and
the customer given q check book
with which to write checks against
the bank. The only real property
that entered the transaction was
the collateral furnished by the
customer. His checks were bal
anced by other checks constantly
flowing into the bank in the clear
inq house system; so that the av-
are bank never was out in actual
money more than one-tenth Of the
loan. Bv means of this bank cred
f. system the banker was able to
loan and draw interest upon ten
