Sometime the DATE at which I emitted my beliefs adds, or should add, a<br />

bit of weight or interest, to the fact shown, or the conviction presented.<br />

This is not in retrospect, but in prospect. If I had always been WRONG,<br />

as nine tenths of the people to whom you listen, I should have less cause<br />

to rake up old articles printed, or old statements made when I have been<br />

interviewed, now and again often by reporters who did not expect their<br />

copy to get past the editor’s desk. New York Sun, April 21, 1939: “We<br />

don’t think that much will be heard of it since many of the author’s<br />

bank agents in America, Mr. Ikleheimer, etc., during the past 80 years<br />

have NOT been very amply revealed to the citizens. The real facts<br />

regarding the connection of at least ONE of Kuhn Loeb’s directors, with<br />

the British Intelligence Service have not, so far as I know, had the<br />
