MONEY POWER MONOPOLY

Sir f —ls. there a manufacturer in this country or any other who Is not keen to turn out goods and more goods if someone will give him the orders for them? Is there a farmer who is complaining that his land and stock are unable to cope with, the demands for production which pour in on him? I'f so, an explanation is wanted, why the farmer is being frustrated in his endeavours whilst the demand is there! What is it then which stands, in between this enormous reservoir of production and the clamour of the multi-r tude, which is able to satisfy its demands? The answer is money. But because of the subordination of this most powerful tool, to the objective of what may be called a hidden government, it is not necessary to labour the point that the visable gov-; eminent of a country is obliged to take orders and to shape its policy and particularly its financial policy, in accordance with the instructions of the dealers in this indispensable implement, as long as they hold a-w practical monopolj'. In other Limitations of Government. So that, the solution of tlie problems con-»* fronting us at the present time, does in fact turn on the limitation of the distribution of wealth (whicli limitations also react on its production) . The remedy that the people desire at the present time, is like the Kingdom of. Heaven, within each, one of them, and their desires in eral are not likely to be satisfied by a card-indexed paradise after the heart of. M. Stalin or Peter Fraser; or any other party political regime upholding orthodox finance! Yours etc., W. BRADSHAW.
