Morgenthau’s department? What facts of American history are widely<br />

available? Not only of past eight years’ sins against the whole people,<br />

but of the record of the past 80 or 100 years? Munitioneers?<br />

Speculations in war material? Speculation in other materials made scarce<br />

by diversion of work FROM sane activities in production [?] of food and<br />

clothing to war material.<br />

WAR IS THE MAXIMUM SABOTAGE. Nothing so helps the creators<br />

of artificial scarcity as a condition wherein goods are rapidly destroyed<br />

without doing direct good to ANYONE. There seems today to be at least<br />

an audible minority of people who think NOW, as I did in 1939, that<br />

some group or groups of interested persons in the U.S. desire and then<br />

desired war. My remarks on gold at that time seem to have a<br />

considerable confirmation within the past few weeks. In an interview<br />

printed on June 15th, 1939, I stated that “A war on Germany in our time<br />

would be a war against an honest concern of money.” I cited Schacht’s<br />

remark about money issued against goods. I might have cited Mr. Zubly<br />

in one of the earliest sessions of the American Congress. I should be<br />

get busy and give the people an ADEQUATE opportunity to inform<br />

themselves of the real facts. “Paths to Plenty,” lovely little title for a<br />

booklet, but is your gasoline going to be rationed? I can’t read you the<br />

whole of Wallace’s booklet. What I don’t make out is how, having<br />

written that booklet, Mr. Wallace has been got at—HAD in the interim—<br />

and is now out yelling bloody murder ALL on the side of the loan<br />

sharks, the munitioneers, the despoilers of agriculture and murderers of<br />

the working man. And what the Sam Hill he thinks a ten years war<br />

would do toward attaining the very ideals he was preaching in Californy<br />

three years ago? He can’t believe in the filthy hell of Geneva, he can’t<br />

believe in the infamy of the League of Nations with its 20 year record of<br />

refusal to make ANY move toward social justice constantly working for<br />

the international swine and bleeders and scarcity makers, monopolists.<br />

Churchill and company represent usury they represent tyranny<br />

oppression, greed, unrestricted exploitation of humanity, by the most
