The Fourteenth Protocol --
"In this divergence between
the Gentiles and ourselves in ability to think and reason
is to be seen clearly the seal of our election as the chosen
people, as higher human beings, in contrast with the Gentiles
who have merely instinctive and animal minds. They observe,
but they do not foresee, and they invent nothing (except
perhaps material things). It is clear from this that nature
herself predestined us to rule and guide the world."
Chapter .14.
THE HIGH AND LOW OF
JEWISH MONEY-POWER
Humanity has become wise enough to discuss
those forms of physical sickness over which it formerly drew
the veil of shame and secrecy, but political hygiene is not
so far advanced. The main source of the sickness of our national
body is charged to be the influence of the Jews, and although
this was apparent to acute minds years ago, it is now said
to have gone so far as to be apparent to the least observing.
But while these influences were undermining the mass of the
people, higher influences of Jewish origin were operating
on the government.
The Jewish Problem in the United States is essentially
a city problem; great cities are the areas in which most all
national diseases have their origin. It is characteristic
of the Jews to gather in numbers, not where land is open nor
where raw materials are found, but where the greatest number
of people abide. This is a noteworthy fact when considered
alongside the claim that the Gentiles have ostracized them;
the Jews congregate in their greatest numbers in those places
and among those people where they complain they are least
wanted!
The explanation most frequently given is this:
the genius of the Jew is to live off people, not off land,
nor off the production of commodities from raw materials,
but off people. Let other people till the soil; the Jew, if
he can, will live off the tiller. Let other people toil at
trades and manufacture; the Jew will exploit the fruits of
their work. That is his particular genius. If this genius
be described as parasitic, the term would seem to be justified
by a certain fitness.
In no other city of the United States can the Jewish
Problem be studied with greater profit than in the city of
New York. There are more Jews in New York than anywhere else
in the world; at least one Jew in every ten resides in New
York. Jews exert more power in New York, and from New York,
than they have ever exerted during the Christian era in any
place, with the exception of present Russia. The Jewish Revolution
of Russia was manned from New York. The Jewish government
of Russia was transported almost as a unit from the lower
East Side of New York. The general run of shopkeeping, from
the great departmental stores to the smallest "junk" shop,
is practically monopolized by Jews. The legal profession is
predominantly Jewish. From news agencies that distribute news
to the newspapers, to the newspaper that prints it, to the
news-stand that distributes the national reading matter, the
control and in most cases the ownership is entirely Jewish.
In Wall Street the Jewish element is both numerous and powerful,
as might be expected of a race which from early days has played
an important part in the financial operations of the world.
THE ROTHSCHILD METHOD
Jewish high finance first touched the United
States through the Rothschilds. Indeed, it may be said that
the United States founded the Rothschild fortunes. As so often
occurs in the tale of Jewish riches, the fortune was founded
in war. The first 20 million dollars the Rothschilds ever
had to speculate with was the money paid for Hessian troops
to fight against the American colonies.
Since that first indirect connection with American
affairs, the Rothschilds have often invaded the money affairs
of the country, though always by agents. None of the Rothschild
sons thought it necessary to establish himself in the newly-founded
United States. Anslem remained in Frankfort, Solomon chose
Vienna, Nathan Mayer went to London, Charles established himself
in Naples, and James represented the family in Paris.
These were the five war-lords of Europe for more
than a generation, and their dynasty was continued by their
successors.
Rothschild power, as it was once known, has been
so broadened by the entry of other banking families into governmental
finance, that it must now be known not by the name of one
family of Jews, but by the name of the race. Thus it is spoken
of as International Jewish Finance, and its principal figures
are described as International Jewish Financiers. Much of
the veil of secrecy which contributed so greatly to the Rothschild
power has been stripped away; war finance has been labeled
for all time as "blood money," and the mysterious magic surrounding
large transactions between governments and individuals, by
which individual controllers of large wealth were made the
real rulers of the people, has been largely solved and the
plain facts disclosed.
The Rothschild method still holds good, however,
in that Jewish institutions are affiliated with their racial
institutions in all foreign countries. As a leading student
of financial affairs puts it, the world of high finance is
largely a Jewish world because of the Jewish financiers "absence
from national or patriotic illusions." To the International
Jewish Financier the ups and downs of war and peace between
the nations are hut the changes of the world's financial market;
and, as frequently the movement of stocks is manipulated for
purposes of market strategy, so sometimes international relations
are affected for mere financial gain.
It is known that the first world war was postponed
several times at the behest of international financiers. If
it broke out too soon, it would not involve the states which
the international financiers wished to involve. Therefore,
the masters of gold, the international masters, were compelled
several times to check the martial enthusiasm which their
own propaganda had aroused. The Jewish Press alleges that
there was discovered a Rothschild Letter dated 1911, and urging
the Kaiser against war. The year 1911 was too early. There
was no such insistence in 1914.
There is no question whatever of International
Jewish Finance being deeply concerned in the matter of war
and revolution - this is never denied as to the past; it is
Just as true of the present. The league against Napoleon,
for example, was Jewish. Its headquarters were in Holland.
When Napoleon invaded Holland, the headquarters were moved
to Frankfort on-the-Main. It is remarkable how many of the
International Jewish Financiers have come out of Frankfurt
-- the Rothschilds, the Schiffs, the Speyers, to name but
a few. Jewish influence in German affairs came strongly to
the front during the 1914-1918 war. It came with all the directness
and attack of a flying wedge, as if previously prepared. There
are no stronger contrasts in the world than the pure Germanic
and pure Semitic races; therefore, there has been no harmony
between the two in Germany, and though Jewish influence became
strong in that country it was not gained without challenge,
but Jewish power became paramount in the Revolution which
followed the war. The Revolution would not have come if they
had not brought it. The principal Jewish influences which
brought down German order may be named under three heads:
(a) the spirit of Bolshevism which masqueraded under the name
of German Socialism; (b) Jewish ownership and control of the
Press; (c) Jewish control of the food supply and the industrial
machinery of the country. There was a fourth, "higher up,"
but these worked upon the German people directly. It will
be recalled that the German collapse in that war was directly
due to food starvation and material shortages, and to industrial
unrest. As early as the second year of the war, German Jews
were preaching that German defeat was necessary to the rise
of the proletariat. Strovel declared: "I openly admit that
a full victory of the country would not be in the interest
of the Social Democrats." And also: "The exaltation of the
proletariat after a won victory is an impossibility." Revolution
is the expression of the Jews' will to power. Parties are
but tools for the Jewish plan to power. The so-called "dictatorship
of the proletariat" is really and practically the dictatorship
of the Jews.
The 1914-1918 war brought about a condition which
threw a new light on the internationalism of Jewish finance.
During the years of American neutrality there was opportunity
to observe the extent of the foreign affiliations of certain
men, and also the extent to which ordinary national loyalty
was subordinated to the business of international finance.
That war really forced a coalition of Gentile capital on one
side of the struggle, as against certain blocks of Jewish
capital which were willing to play both sides. The old Rothschild
maxim: "Do not put all your eggs in one basket," becomes perfectly
plain when transposed into national and international terms.
Jewish finance treats political parties the same -- bets on
them both, and so never loses. In the same way Jewish finance
never loses a war. Being on both sides, it cannot miss the
winning side, and its terms of peace are sufficient to cover
all advances to the side that lost. This was the significance
of the great swarming of Jews at the Versailles Peace Conference.
But a strange fatality seems to follow all forms
of Jewish supremacy. Just as the capstone is ready to be placed
on the edifice of Jewish triumphs, something occurs and the
structure shrinks. It occurs so often in Jewish history that
the Jews themselves have been exercised to find an explanation.
In many cases "anti-Semitism" offers the readiest excuse,
but not always. Just at the present time, when the light which
was shed by the fires of war has revealed so many matters
formerly hidden in shadow, the awakening of world attention
is called "anti-Semitism," and the explanation is given that
"after every war the Jew becomes the scapegoat" -- a curious
admission which would lead a less self-centered people to
inquire, Why?
SCOPE OF JEWISH MONEY
POWER
In the firm of Kuhn, Loeb and Company, Jewish
finance in the United States reached its high-water mark.
The head of this firm was the late Jacob Schiff, who was born
in Frankfort-the-Main and whose father was one of the Rothschild
brokers. One of Jacob Schiff's associates, Otto Kahn, was
bourn in Mannheim, and was early associated with the Speyers,
who also originated in Frankfort and who came to great power
in England during the reign of Edward VII. Another associate,
Felix Warburg, married into Jacob Schiff's family, and the
Warburgs became some of the most influential members of America's
diplomatic representatives.
Early flank movements of Jewish financiers in
America sought out other objectives in foreign countries whose
future influence on American affairs proved to be considerable.
The first flank movement was toward Central and South America.
The financial assistance, practical and advisory, offered
to Mexico during the most unsatisfactory period of her relations
with the United States was given by Jewish groups. The political
upheavals and the financial arrangements in the tiny but strategically
placed countries of Central America are too notorious even
to occasion comment.
It is known that Jacob Schiff gave material assistance
to Japan in the 1905 war with Russia. This was explainable
on the ground of good business and also of a desire to revenge
Russia's treatment of the` Jews. Schiff used the opportunity
also to instill the principles, which have since grown up
into Bolshevism, into the minds of the Russian prisoners in
Japanese war camps. The attempt to gain influence in Japan,
in those distant days, came off rather badly. The Japs kept
the business deal strictly a business deal, and Mr. Jacob
Schiff was displeased with Japan generally. The idea at the
beginning of the century appears to have been to add the newly
rising Japan to the string of financial conquests, but the
Japanese were credited with knowing much more about the "Jewish
peril" than did the United States. This is well worth recalling
in view of the intensive propaganda which, for years before
the 1914 war and again just before the 1939 war, constantly
sought to create misunderstanding between the United States
and the Empire of Japan.
Jewry emerged from the 1914-1918 war more strongly
entrenched in power, even in the United States, than it was
before. In the world at large the ascendancy of the Jew at
the present time is even more marked. In those countries which
can justly be called unfriendly to the Jew, now or in the
recent past, the rule of the Jew is stronger than anywhere
else. The more they are opposed the more they show their power.
At a moment when, as all Jewish spokesmen inform us, there
is a world-wave of "anti-Semitism," -- which is their name
for a new awakening of people to what has been going on --
what should occur but that at the head of the Chief Magistracy
of the World* a Jew appears. Nobody seems to know why. Nobody
can explain it.
"DISRAELI OF AMERICA"-A
JEW OF SUPER-POWER
In the United States we had a term of Jewish
rule** almost as absolute as that which exists in Russia.
This appears to be a very strong statement, but it is milder
than the facts warrant. And the facts are not of hearsay origin,
nor the product of a biased point of view; they are the fruits
of an inquiry by the lawful officials of the United States
who were set aside in favor of a ready-made Jewish Government,
and they are forever spread upon the official records of the
United States.
The Jews have proved that the control of Wall
Street is not necessary to the control of the American people,
and the person by whom they proved this was a Wall Street
Jew !
This man has been called "the pro-consul of Judah
in America." It is said that once, referring to himself, he
exclaimed: "Behold the Disraeli of the United States!"
To a select committee of the Congress of the United
States he said: "I probably had more power than perhaps
any other man did to the war; doubtless that is true."
EDITOR'S NOTE:* The League of Nations is referred to in
the original (1920) text and the same factor arises in the
present direction of the "United Nations." The more it changes,
the more it is the same thing!
EDITOR'S NOTE: **In each instance the 1914-1918 war is referred
to, during the administration of President Wilson. It is a
vital fact that the same man (Baruch) was the right-hand man
of President Roosevelt throughout the Roosevelt peace and
war administrations!
He did not overstate the case. He did have
more power. It was not all legal power, this much he admitted.
It reached into every home and store and factory and bank
and railway and mine. It touched armies and governments. It
touched recruiting boards. It made and unmade men without
a word. It was power without responsibility and without limit.
It was such a power as compelled the Gentile population to
lay bare every secret before this man and his Jewish associates,
giving them an advantage and knowledge that billions of gold
could not buy.*
Not one American in a million ever heard of this
man before the entry of the United States into the war in
1917. He glided out of a certain obscurity unlighted by public
service of fame, into the high rulership of the nation at
war. The constituted government had little to do with him
save vote the money and do his bidding. He said that men could
have appealed over his head to the President of the United
States but, knowing the situation, men never did.
Who was, who is, this figure, colossal in his
way, and most instructive of the readiness of Judah to take
the rule whenever he desires?
His name is Bernard M. Baruch. He was born in South
Carolina in the 1870's, the son of a Jewish doctor, Dr. Simon
Baruch. He was graduated at the College of the City of New
York when he was just under 19 years of age. After going down
to Wall Street as a clerk and a runner, and when he "was about
26 or 27," he became a member of the firm of A. A. Housman
and Company. "In about 1900 or 1902" he left the firm, but
he had meanwhile gained a seat on the Stock Exchange.
EDITOR'S NOTE: *In the second world war, in which the
man was all powerful, his close friend, Winston Churchill,
was British Prime Minister. It is significant that the "concentration
of industry" system in Britain threw all commercial secrets
into the hands of monopolist cartels, and the secrets of British
military and industrial developments were made freely available
to Jewish manipulators.
He then went into business himself, a statement
which must be taken literally in view of his testimony that
he
"Did not do any business for anybody but
myself. I made a study of the corporations engaged in the
production and manufacture of different things, and a study
of the men engaged in them."
Emerging from his evidence before Congress,
Baruch's operations are seen to be in various fields; principally
in the field of metals and the organization of various commercial
enterprises. He was instrumental also in the purchase of tobacco
companies, various copper, steel tungsten, rubber and smelting
companies, and he was responsible for the building up of the
great industries in rubber in Mexico. As a young man, he is
found to be the master of large sums of money, and there is
no indication that he inherited any. He is very wealthy. What
change the war made in his wealth is not known, but certainly
many of his friends and closest associates reaped great quantities
of money from their activities during the war.
DICTATOR BARUCH
Cross-examined by the Congress Inquiry it
was amply proved that Baruch's influence over President Wilson
made such changes in the Administration as to make Baruch
the most powerful man in the war. The Council of National
Defense eventually became the merest side show. It was not
a Council of Americans that ran the war, it was an autocracy
headed by a Jew, with Jews at every strategic point down the
line. In his own evidence he describes one of his visits to
the President in 1915.
Mr. Baruch: "I thought a war was coming long before
it did . . . I explained to him as earnestly as I could that
I was very deeply concerned about the necessity of the mobilization
of the industries of the country. The President listened very
attentively and graciously, as he always does . . . My attention
was brought to the Council of National Defense . . . The Secretary
of War asked me what I thought of it. I said I would like
to have something different." A council is a council.
Mr. Baruch wanted something different. He did
get something different. He got the President to change matters
so as to make Mr. Baruch the "most powerful man in the war."
What Baruch did was very masterly, but it was not in the American
manner. No one but a member of his race would have wanted
to do it.
There is no discounting the testimony Baruch gave
before Congress. The President of the United States did exactly
what Baruch wanted in a thousand ways, and what Baruch apparently
wanted was a ruling hand on productive America, and he got
it. He got it in a larger way than even Lenin or his successors
ever got in Russia; for here in the United States the people
saw nothing but the patriotic element; they did not see the
Jewish Government looming above them. Yet it was there.
So Baruch did things. Before he got through, he
was head and center of a system of control such as the United
States Government never possessed and never will possess until
it changes its character as a free government. As told by
himself, his power consisted in the following authorities:
1. Authority over the use of capital in the
private business of Americans. (This authority was nominally
under the Capital Issues Committee, the controlling factor
of which was another Jew, Eugene Meyer, Jr.)
2. Authority over all materials. This,
of course, included everything. Mr. Baruch was an expert in
many of the lines of materials involved, and had held interests
in many of them. In lines where Mr. Baruch was not an expert
he, of course, had other experts in charge; Jews. "The members
of that committee were pierced out by myself; the industries
did not pick them out," he stated.*
3. Authority over industries. He determined
where coal might be shipped, where steel might be sold, where
industries might be operated and where not. He said, it is
in his recorded testimony, that there were 361 or 357 lines
of industry under his control in the United States including
"practically every raw material in the world. I had the final
authority."
4. Authority over the cases of men to be called
to military service. Baruch virtually pointed out to
the Provost Marshall of the United States, the classes of
men to be taken into the army. "We had to decide virtually
the necessity of things," he said. "We had to decide that
the less-essential industries would have to be curbed, and
it was from them that the man-power would have to be taken
for the army.
It was, of course, necessary that some ruling
should be made, but why one man, why always this one man?
EDITOR'S NOTE: *The extension of the "control of industry
and materials system in World War 2 and the development of
the methods and powers of Baruch and his political associates
in the "Western Democracies" in the latter war, make an interesting
parallel to the disclosures in Congress after the first world
war. The Plan in progress, in fact.
5. Authority over the personnel of labor
in the country.
"We decided upon a dilution of men with
women labor, which was a thing that had always been fought
by the labor unions." "We fixed the prices for the total
production, not alone for the army and the navy, but
for the Allies and the civilian population."
And now behold as complete an illustration
of one part of the Protocols as ever could be found in any
Gentile Government: "We will force up wages which, however,
will be of no benefit to the workers, for we will at the same
time cause a rise in the prices of necessities": the First
Protocol.
It was not only during the war, but also after
the Armistice, that tokens of signal choice were showered
on Baruch. He went to the Versailles Peace Conference as a
part of the President's entourage.
Mr. Baruch: "Whenever he asked my advice
I gave it. I had something to do with the reparations clauses.
I was the American Commissioner in charge of what they called
the 'Economic Section.' I was a member of the Supreme Economic
Council in charge of raw materials."
Baruch admitted in his evidence that he sat
in council with the men who were negotiating the Peace Treaty
and that he participated in the meeting of the "Big Five"
Premiers. Jews were so conspicuous in the American Mission
as to excite comment everywhere. Frenchmen called Versailles
the "Kosher Conference." So numerous and ubiquitous were the
International Jews, headed by Baruch, so firmly established
in the inner councils, that the keen observer, Dr. E. J. Dillon,
in his book, "The Inside Story of the Peace Conference" (Harpers),
said this:
"It may seem amazing to some readers, but
it is none the less a fact, that a considerable number of
delegates believed that the real influences behind the Anglo-Saxon
peoples were Semitic." (p.496).
And again:
Go. . . the sequence of expedients framed
and enforced in this direction were inspired by the Jews,
assembled in Paris for the purpose of realizing their carefully
thought-out program, which they succeeded in having substantially
executed . . . The formula into which this policy was thrown
by the members of the Conference, whose countries it affected,
and who regarded it as fatal to the peace of Eastern Europe,
was this: 'Henceforth the world will be governed by
the Anglo-Saxon peoples, who in their turn, are swayed by
their Jewish elements'." (p. 497).
This is not the whole story by any means.
Why was Baruch chosen to be the first Dictator
of the United States? What had he been, what had he done,
that he should have been chosen as head and front of governmental
power in the first world war, the first major war in which
the United States were involved, and which turned that country
from a debtor nation into the most powerful of all time in
military and financial power? And with a minimum of military
sacrifice and comparatively trifling effort His antecedents
do not account for it. Neither his personal nor commercial
attainments account for it. What; does?
Men who can manipulate this political and money
power in time of war can do so in time of peace. The United
States is living under some of the peace-manipulation now.
The operating groups, governments, are bankrupt. Only their
power of confiscation keeps them up. The United States, commonly
referred to as the richest country in the world, is just as
poor as a government as is any other; it is in debt and borrowing.
And its creditors are constant discounting their obligations
and putting it into worse hands than ever. The amount of our
National Debt is the measure of our enslavement to Jewish
World Finance. We live in a democracy, yet loans are contracted
that always cost more than the amount of the loan, and no
one has a word to say about it. We Americans do not know how
much interest we pay every year, and we don't know to whom
we pay it
