LAST DITCH OF DEMOCRACY - Majority Rights

Kipling once wrote, “Jack Barret went to Quatta.” But that was another
story, that was for a personal reason..
Are you going to select a leader’ ? You haven’t followed, and won’t
follow any leader yet offered’ ? Have you a selfless leader’ ? Have you
the sphincter strength to revive the old custom of meeting, or are all
town meetings for bidden by now in England’ ?
Was the war what you wanted’ ? Were you TOLD in 1939 what Vice
President Wallace has now at last told you, namely NO peace without
the gold standard’ ?
After Winston’s visit to Washington, have you mental coherence enough
to recall what happened in England when the fat boy brought back the
gold standard’ ? Must have been YEARS ago, did someone say 1925’ ?
I have plumb forgot when it happened. America is allus behindhand,
gets round to a dead British idea about 20 years after England is thru
with it.
NO peace without the gold standard. Why weren’t you TOLD that
before you set out to keep Danzig Polish and to defend Finland against
Russian menace’ ?
No peace without the gold standard. Is that the voice of “We the people
of England, we have not spoken yet’?”
Pound speaking from Italy. Parlando da Roma. Pound speaking. Am I
expected to wait for the people of England to speak’ ? Of course you’ll
have to find your OWN leaders, I can’t pick and choose ’em for you.
