The way tohiaintain world peace, says Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, is through an organized family of nations, the peace to be maintained by an organized international police force. g Says Pres. Rosevelt, The nations must make a concerted effort to uphold laws and principles on which alone peace can rest." SaidWoodrow Wilson, "Peace through a League of Nations," which was first mentioned by Theodore Roosewelt. Says Maxim Litvinoff, "We shall attain the ideal of peace only by collectively repelling the aggressor, by collectively defending peace." Collectivism is the onlv means of combatting the human animals who make war. peace-lovin- Why not get together and demand a grand jury investigation of the vice and official graft in Zion? Will it ever be different? There can be little joy in the souls of men unless there is an abundant life, and abundant life means far more than the fact that a man in rags and starving may still thrill with spiritual emotion and ecstacy. Abundant life means both the abundant spiritual life and the abundant material life. The creator is the author of abundance, so mueh so that he has made it practically universal. He has not failed in any one particular in doing his part and providing all the fundamentals which people need for the abundant life. It is man who has exploited his fellows. It is human greed that has taken more than its share. It If genuine love and real human sympathy are not behind a security movement in will fail If love is not in the service, it is vain.

Bryan from the Wilson cabinet was the winning of the president to the support of the Federal Reserve Act by Paul Warburg, a Jew, In conferance after conference, Wilson, undecided, listened to Warburg and CoL House for die proposition and Mr. Bryan against. Warburg won the president over with die under, standing that it would be a government banking system that would prevent depressions. Bryan knew it would not be and do what Warburg clamed, but would become the cross on which the people would be crucified. At the last official meeting Wilson tried vainly to convert Bryan and the re. agnation followed. Then the big bankers brought on die depression of 1920, as defiberstely planned and executed as anything could be But financial operations and big bankeri and Federal Reserve systems are put a part of the iniquitous system which is responsible. midnight dark- -, Vhat I have in mind with regard to this liness is this : There are very few people who cannot get enty-fi- ve dollars to put into one of these cooperative Published Weekly by C.

And here is another illustration: President Grover Cleveland refused to repeal the Silver Purchase Bill which had increased currency for the people by 816,000,000, the bankers called their meeting at which the spokesman said: "We shall have to teach the country an lesson; we shall have to frighten the people in order to get repeal of the Silver Bill." Then the members at meeting framed a letter which was sent to every national bank in the country, asking them to call loans, curtail credit and bring about a financial crisis and lay the blame on the Silver Coinage measure. That meeting and that letter brought on one of the major panics or depressions in history. Millions were thrown out of work, thousands were made bankrupt, (From the minutes of the McMillan Commission, an extract of the evidence, page 355) And thus has every depression been made. Bryan came forward a little later. He said: The real fight is for the control of the national credit. If Me Kinley wins, this country will bo controlled by the most unscrupulous set of peculators the world has ver known.
