To the editor:
The late Arthur Brisbane, one OF
the best informed men of his time,
and a man of much wealth, writing
about the financial policy of our gov
eminent said six billions spent
making jobs by issuing interest bear
ing bonds will cost six billions more
for interest, doubling the debt. If the
government would print it's money
and pay the workers and contractors
with that, instead of insisting on pay
inc interest, it would save six more
billions for employment
Contractors anu workers will get
only government printed green pape"
anyway They will not get bonds. Why
not print the money, pay it out, saw
100 per cent of the debt in Interest,"
. 1t would be interesting, it seems
to me, to know how many voters IN
our country are aware that is the
way our government seeks to keep
the wolves of want from the doors
of our sixty rich families, while
breeding wolves to devour the great
producing class.
All this talk we hear about defense
and war is simply to divert the atten-
ton of the people from this all i'm
portant subject of money, l say this
because, during the las. months OF
the sevcnty-fifth Congress much was
said, by the friends of the people,
about this money question, and it was
well understood that something must
be done by the, scvonty-sixth Con-
gress to get money into the hands of
the toiling millions. Wall Street saw
the drift and proceeded to stop it with
war talk. A
4. Defense and war talk is not trou-
bling the great producing class IN
America. They are too much in need
of food, rain1clt and shelter.
Go into the home of any voter and
insult him as he is being insultcd by
the fiscal policy of his government
and you will be put out very rashly
Rashly is not q strong enough word,
for you would be kicked out very I'M
tremendously.
This great government Of ours, by
its laws that govern its money policy,
says in effect to the producing class:
You are a bunch of ignorant fools
and as fast as you produce tho wealth
it shall be taken from you and given
to our sixty rich faor'ce anl thci-
sordid lackeys. They will spend il
gambling on your produce in Wall
Street, in swapping their immoral dis
reputable females in divorce courts
eating and drinking the best Gods
earth can afford in their riotous liv-
ing which is produced by your labor
while you and your wife and children
barely exist on the odds and ends the
rich do not want. Learn the facts
and you will find every word of that
is as true as anything recorded in the
Bible or elsewhere
There is in Congress a goodly num-
Der who want to change the money
policy of our government in order
that the working pro 'ucing class ma
get fair share of the proceeds of
their labor. If these congrcrsnacn no
are friends Of the people All Dc ov2
in justice had he help of 0r'y fc'v
from the South something would re
done when Cong"oss mocts Januqrv
3 to relieve tho bad condi ion that
now exists. Blt o~gon:zcd wealth
holds in it's hands most OF the con-
gressmen from the povcrty-stricke1
South so they work AGAINST every
thing that will help the PRODUCING
class. They arc getting theirs in biz
pay and very much desire to keep
things as they arc. Every representa-
tive from Nor'h Carolina is opposed
to anything that will help workers
and farmers except some crumb scat
tering device like crop control which
at best gives only n few crumbs.
Now you farmers sent these men to
Washington 20 make laws. for but TO-.
your votes they would be at home.
Write them at cn2c to get busy and
help the goo mon there to pass Il
pension law t'7r' vii give the peopl2
the right amount Of money to carry
on the business o. t',.s country in tho
way it should &c done. They have
fooled you i. seems to me, long
enough with the little crunlb scat
tering machines iSH it is high tim
you get some :cs'' r. from their iol
resentation. This letting you vote
crop control and such is only a '~ic
to make you hang your saves. I'',r
know good go 'ynl it viii r"o1'
little if any. Believe me there is moth
