LAST DITCH OF DEMOCRACY - Majority Rights

I have spoken before of Mr. Bridson’s very able skit or whatever you
call it, radio dialog dramedy or whatever on free speech.
Well the point for all Europe is that Free Speech is merely a concom
mitant of crime, injustice, infamy, or worse, if it be used as a mere
diversion, a mere camouflage and mere flapping of a cloth to GET THE
auditors MIND off the FACTS; [it] is NOT a passport to the world’s
universal esteem.
It is a fine old, that is, it is IN ITSELF a fine thing UNDER some circum
stances. It is fine to protest against wrong and injustice. BUT NOT if
that protest is used merely or mainly to cover some greater evil, some
greater injustice.
Now England has a guilty conscience. You may as well face THAT
issue. Mr. Bridson wisely admitted a number of England’s past crimes.
He did NOT quite face England’s present crimes and evasions.
The attempts against the American colonies, the press campaign against
Lincoln, the list of England’s past crimes is a long one. BUT Britain,
France, Spain still fail to MENTION what was possibly the MAIN cause
of the American Revolution, namely, the suppression of Pennsylvania
colony paper money (and to almost a Gesellite system), in 1750.
Suppressed in 1750. Usury you keep off of; the interest problem,
problem of WHEN is it just to receive annual payment on invested
capital is NOT yet in the brain trust’s repertoire. I think .it was a certain
Ingram who pussyfooted all round it.
I am beginning to have a certain respect for the Brain Trust. At least
England is still the INTELLECTUAL capital of the anti-Axis forces,
even if England’s power and Jewry have shifted their center. The U.S. is
still being a colony mentally.
