Show The Paper That Dares To Take A Stand I November 17, 1972 Let People Buy And Sell Gold ' law, Kershners Law, that sound money brings on periods of moral Now, what do you see when you advance and economic prosperity look around today? The young while periods of unsound money people I hear talking, when they get are periods of moral decline and married, say, Well, whats going decay. Now we come to the last point to happen to the dollar in a few years, in two, three, or five years? and that is the Cure of Inflation. Will it be worth a nickle, a dime, a How are we going to get rid of this quarter, or a penny? Maybe it will thing? be worth nothing.

And there is no example in history of a nation that deserted process of redistributing wealth.

So I say, what we need to do is a third step: Repeal all laws prohibiting people from buying and selling gold. Now, the only way you know what anything is worth is what it will bring in the open market. Thats the only way to determine value. If we had an open market in gold and no prohibition in buhing and selling it, wed all be trading in it. Id go and buy some tomorrow, not ver much, but all I could. Probably you would too. And, if everybody is buying and selling gold we would eventually know what gold is worth in terms of our present quantity of paper money. Then we could return to the gold standard on that basis without fear of either inflation or- - deflation. People wouldnt take their paper to the bank to draw out gold because the gold wouldnt buy anymore than the paper. You see, weve determined the value of this paper in terms of gold by the free market trading int until we kno what its worth. In my opinion, that is the only way we are going to lick this question of inflation. They're talking about paper gold. Paper gold is only paper. When you can convince your wife that a necklace made out of paper is as satisfactory a birthday present for her as one made out of gold, then Ill believe that peper gold might someday work. But it wont work. It just isnt worth what gold is worth. So, we come the' the conclusion that if were going to maintain our freedom in this country, and our self government, were going to have to recover our religious faith and we are going to have to learn an awful lot about economics that we dont know yet today. The place to begin, in my opinion, is in the public schools and in the colleges of the land.

He said, Well, thats right, those are the people who wrote these textbooks. But, you see we have your leaders on our side already and it won't be long until well get the rest of you. And he leaned back in his chair and laughed uproariously. Then he said, with menace in his voice, Well be over to finish the takeover of America sooner than you think. Its already in your textbooks, your young people are learning it and you cant stop them. You know that as free economy is one thing and a socialist economy is another andyou can operate on one of the other but you have mixed yours so much now that you cant unscramble, them. Youre going all the way to socialism. We dont have to fight you. We dont have to urge you. Were just going to sit here and wait until you walk into our camp. What did Lenin say? the way to conquer a country is to corrupt its money and then you can take it over. What did Stalin say to Foster who was William Z.

Work for more government intervention in the economic activities of the people and you can bring America through the back door into the communist regime. Now this is what they're counting on doing. The places where they're making headway is in the colleges.

People like Jerry Rubin and Angela Davis are going around speaking to students at $2,000 a night paid by taxpayers, sometimes $2,500 a night. This is taxpayers money. We are financing our own destruction, paying for it ourselves. Our days are numbered, unless we find some way to stop it. Ive been working at this a long, long time and the most hopeful way that I have ever found to combat this is one that we learned from young people themselves. They consulted with other conservatives on other campuses and came up with the answer that we ought to have a campus paper in the idiom that the You ' college kids understand. ought to teach sound economics and sound religion and show why all these evils of communism and drugs and pornography and all this is wrong, give them good sound reason for it. Theyll read it and they'll listen to it. So we tried it and we said - what shall we call it? They came up with the name. For Real.

He was met with thunderous applause from the students and faculty members alike. I tell you it is in these colleges. Youve got a few here in Utah where it isnt very pronounced, as yet.
