“A GIGANTIC CONSPIRACY WAS FORMED IN LONDON AND NEW YORK TO DEMONETIZE SILVER”---Martin Walbert, “The Coming Battle—A Complete History of the National Banking Money Power in the United States” (1899)
Arthur K. Watson was Ambassador to France, 1970-1972 and the first United States liaison to Red China (silver leasing?) He was a member of the Commission on Critical Choices for Americans, a propaganda group run by Pilgrims Society member Nelson Rockefeller; and in 1968 co-founded, with Pilgrims kingpin David Rockefeller, the Emergency Committee on American Trade, including dozens of the largest corporations http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_K._Watson
The Pilgrims Society bankers fed the national silver to the industrial users while maintaining a propaganda machine about it.
In the Commercial & Financial Chronicle, May 9, 1946, page 2517, we notice a statement by Republican Congressman Frederick C. Smith of Ohio---
"PRESENT STATUTES EMPOWER THE GOVERNMENT TO CONTROL THE SILVER MARKET."
You should have a sense of "who" runs the government in the District of Columbia! That was at a time when the Office of Price Management (OPA, a Fascist federal agency) dictated the silver price to be 71.11 cents per ounce, about which Utah Senator Abe Murdock said (Commercial & Financial Chronicle, June 13, 1946, page 3249) ---
"Silver cannot be produced profitably at 71.11 cents per ounce."
The last time silver prices were fixed by Federal edict was during the "Tricky Dick" Nixon administration. Lest anyone reading this feel that government actions against silver are no concern to them, be advised that among a wide range of other nefarious activities, the O.P.A had "rent control" policies imposed on landlords. The purpose wasn’t to help struggling renters; the purpose was to hurt smaller real estate operators so that larger entities could grow bigger.
Nevada Silver Senator Patrick McCarran, one of the world’s all time monetary greats, reported (New York Times, December 2, 1945, page 39) a letter had surfaced in which the "ill advised sender, Mr. McCarran testified, threatened to "come to Washington and kill me if certain events occurred."
Andrew Jackson received an average of 545 letters per annum, all anonymous, threatening him with assassination over his intent to end the United States Bank (see "Andy By God Jackson," Archives; Jackson proposed to entirely do away with paper money to end convertibility problems!) President John Tyler (1841-1845) was warned of plots to assassinate him http://johntyler.org/ because he asked the question about a bill--- "DOES IT VIOLATE THE CONSTITUTION BY CREATING A NATIONAL BANK TO OPERATE OVER THE UNION?"
Pages 17-18 & 38 “The Pilgrims of The United States” (2003) ---“Lothian was succeeded in January 1941 by Viscount Halifax, until then the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, at a time when the Lend-Lease Bill was going through Congress, and the Pilgrims decided that they should postpone their welcome dinner UNTIL THE BILL HAD BECOME LAW, IN CASE ANYTHING HALIFAX SAID COULD BE INTERPRETED AS BRITISH PROPAGANDA AND MIGHT ENDANGER THE PASSAGE OF THE LEGISLATION. ONCE THE ACT WAS PASSED, THE AMBASSADOR WOULD BE ABLE TO SAY ANYTHING HE WANTED.”
Viscount Halifax, Pilgrims Society, personally triggered The Great Depression by dumping Indian silver on world markets, now came to America as The Crown’s Ambassador to loot Treasury silver ostensibly owned by the American public---
Edward R. Stettinius Jr., Pilgrims Society member whose father was a partner in J.P. Morgan & Company (probably also a member), was appointed in 1941 by Pilgrims Society member Franklin Roosevelt to head the Lend-Lease Administration, which transferred 88,073,878.21 silver ounces to Great Britain for price suppression purposes (Mining Congress Journal, February 1947, page 84, "Silver At The Crossroads") ---
Stettinius was Secretary of State, 1944-1945, and headed the American delegation to the United Nations Conference on International Organization at San Francisco in 1945, the second attempt of The Pilgrims Society to create a World Government. His listing in the 1941 Who’s Who, page 2459 reveals he was a director of United States Steel and Metropolitan Life and a trustee of Roosevelt Hospital (along with IBM founder, Pilgrims Society executive committee member Thomas J. Watson Sr.) and the University of Virginia and member of the advisory committee on Social Security. The total silver used in Lend-Lease amounted to 408MOZ, according to Nevada Silver Senator Patrick McCarran (Mining Congress Journal, February 1946, page 56). Samuel Montagu & Company of London estimated "almost 411 million ounces" (Commercial & Financial Chronicle, April 19, 1945, page 1748). There can be no doubt that the leasing of silver during World War II formed the basis of experience upon which the silver leasing since the early 1980’s was drawn, by the likes of J. Aron & Company, at that time a Goldman Sachs division, and other bullion banks.
Thomas Ewing III (1862-1942), Pilgrims Society, was an attorney who chaired the Munitions Patent Board (1918-1920) and started his career with the Columbia University School of Mines (1885-1888) which also covered silver and gold mining; source, Who’s Who in America, page 779 (see below image) ---
Thomas Ewing III---as of 1913 he was president of Current Literature Publishing Company and a director of Crocker-Wheeler Company. He was involved with three hospital managements and his wife inherited a small fortune from the carpet industry; carpetbaggers perhaps and Ewing III was a “Democrat” Pilgrims Society member---
Notice that Ewing III had a son named Bayard Ewing, indicating genealogical connection to the old-line Dutch Bayard family (large scale colonial land fortune) of Huguenot descent from France, a group with strong historical conflicts with the Vatican. Next notice his daughter Alexandra became Mrs. Newbold Noyes. The 1957, 1969 and 1974 New York Pilgrims lists show several members of this same family and another in the 1980 list. This family was involved in newspaper publishing, investment banking and real estate. Thomas Ewing’s club memberships (note he omits his Pilgrims membership) were full of silver suppressors from the banking community, led by other Pilgrims members. Note his father was Union Army General Thomas Ewing (1821-1896) who was a lawyer and founded the Ohio Society of New York (another Pilgrims interlock). Before that, Ewing was first chief justice of the State Supreme Court of Kansas. General Ewing was also brother in law of General William Tecumseh Sherman, the Union General who devastated Georgia late in the Civil War, and of course, also brother in law of Treasury Secretary John Sherman, major league monetary silver suppressor. He was a participating lawyer in the Lincoln Conspiracy Trials. General Ewing declined the post of Secretary of War in the Andrew Johnson administration (1865-1869) and narrowly lost a bid for the governorship of Ohio. He had investments in telegraph companies and railroads. He became an Ohio Congressman (1877-1881) and wrote the bill establishing a Bureau of Labor Statistics. The grandfather of our subject Pilgrims Society member was Thomas Ewing (1789-1871) who was a member of the Whig Party which favored a central bank! In March to September 1841 the eldest Ewing was United States Treasury Secretary and when President Harrison died, a rift started between Ewing and the new President, John Tyler, who disfavored a renewed central bank; hence Ewing Senior’s exit from the high post due to President Tyler vetoing the subversive British connected Banking Act. He had been a Senator (1831-1837) and an antagonist of Andrew Jackson’s campaign against the silver and gold suppressing second United States Bank. The eldest Ewing became Secretary of the Interior (1849-1850) in the Zachary Taylor cabinet. Taylor, hero of the Mexican-American War of 1846-1848, was unfortunately in sympathy with the Whig Party, who were antagonistic to President Tyler due to his stance against a central bank. Ewing Senior again became an Ohio Senator from July 1850 to March 1851. We mentioned William T. Sherman as an Ewing son in law; in fact, he started as Ewing’s adopted son after Charles Sherman, a justice of the Ohio State Supreme Court, suddenly died! Hoyt Sherman, younger brother of William and John Sherman, was paymaster of the Union Army and became a leader in Iowa state banking and insurance. Two of Ewing Senior’s sons, Hugh and Charles, also became Union Army Generals! Ewing Senior was a Presbyterian (Scottish Crown loyalist) who apparently engaged in some cursory gestures to penetrate the Roman Catholic Church in his area. The Shermans were also Presbyterians and British loyalists.
The Pilgrims 1940 roster shows two Ewings---
Rhode Island Senator Theodore Green (1937-1961) was a great friend to the Silver Users Association. Was he a Pilgrims Society member? I may be able to procure a leaked list dated 1950. Green was a trustee of Brown University for some years concurrent with Colgate Hoyt, Pilgrims Society (New York Times, July 21, 1912, online states no page number) whose daughter married Sir Ronald Lindsay, Pilgrims Society, Ambassador to America. Colgate Hoyt married Lida Sherman, niece of Ohio Senator, Treasury Secretary John Sherman, who was a functionary for Rothschild gold manipulations, and who was brother of General Sherman who devastated Georgia at the close of the Civil War. Hoyt was a director of Union Pacific Railway; Chicago & Northern Pacific Railway; Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway; Wisconsin Railroad; Oregon Railway; and others. Senator Green got his Green Act passed in 1943 after Nevada silver Senator Patrick McCarran staged a filibuster in December 1942 to kill it. Under the Green Act of 1943, a Federal price cap of 71.11 cents per ounce was imposed on Western silver mine output; he helped make possible the Lend-Leasing of silver by which Britain could retard prices worldwide; and he arranged for his silversmithing, jewelry and industrial silver using pals to grab 43,672,000 silver ounces (Commercial & Financial Chronicle, January 25, 1945, page 427) ---
The New York Times, June 23, 1946, section III, page 2, column one (Sunday edition) reported that General Electric was “unable to buy silver” since the Green Act expired. G.E. was/is a major Pilgrims Society corporation, and its board and management wanted to feed off miners and taxpayers---obtaining silver in a free and open market was an objectionable procedure to anti-competitive interests. The Green Act renewal was blocked by the Silver Senators; unfortunately, that victory was only temporary, as the Money Power never quits!
Sir Ronald Lindsay, Pilgrims Society, son of the 26th Earl of Crawford, was Ambassador to the United States during the critical silver manipulative period, 1930-1939, and was son in law of Pilgrims Society member Colgate Hoyt of 55 Wall Street (one of many transatlantic marriages in The Society) who was associated with silver stealing Senator Theodore Green while on the board of Brown University at Providence, Rhode Island---
Nevada silver Senator McCarran (in office 1933-1954) was outspoken in placing blame for attacks on silver money on Great Britain. In “Silver Serves Throughout the War” (Mining Congress Journal, February 1946, page 56) he charged-
“The purpose of lend-leasing silver for monetary and industrial uses abroad was chiefly to enable Great Britain to control the price at a low level.”
Senator McCarran (1876-1954), enemy of British/American synthetic currency operations---
Robert Henry Brand, Baron Brand, Pilgrims Society, a relative of the incredibly subversive Astor's, was British representative to the silver price suppressing United States Treasury, 1944-1946. He was managing director of Lazard Brothers and chaired North British & Mercantile Insurance and a director of Lloyd’s Bank.
Wartime Federal Order L-208 (Mining Congress Journal, February 1947, page 79) was discussed in an article titled “Gold Mining in the Doldrums” by Neil O’ Donnell, vice president, Idaho Mines Corporation---
“Two dates in recent times are remembered well by gold mine operators. The first is October 8, 1942, when all gold mines in the United States were closed by Limitation Order L-208. The other date is July 1, 1945, when the order was rescinded. Two facts are even more vividly remembered. The first is that economic loss was brought to the industry by L-208, and the second fact is that the cost of production of gold has risen so high since the commencement of the war that the majority of mine operators have found that gold mining is either a business with greatly reduced profits, or an unprofitable business. Although L-208 passed into history on July 1, 1945, the effects of its existence are still with us. When the gold miners were ordered to close their properties on October 8, 1942, no provision was made to lighten the inevitable burden which was to descend on their shoulders. No gold mine operator came through the 33-month period of closure without suffering serious losses, AND IN MANY CASES THE MINE OWNER WAS RUINED FINANCIALLY. If any lesson is to be learned from the issuance of L-208, it is that A SHUTDOWN ORDER IS A WEAPON OF FEARFUL POTENTIALITY. The passage of this order and the subsequent REFUSAL OF THE GOVERNMENT TO INDEMNIFY THE OPERATORS is an occurrence which should give not only mine operators, but all citizens pause to consider. A PRECEDENT IS ESTABLISHED WHICH MIGHT TOUCH NOT ONLY MINING CONCERNS, BUT ANY CITIZEN. WHO SHALL SAY NO TOMORROW IF A BUREAU OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ORDERS YOUR BUSINESS CLOSED FOR 33 MONTHS?”
The people staffing these high echelon levels of the government today will be of the same character as that of 1942. They will be members of the public front known as the Council on Foreign Relations. The most elite of them will be members of The Pilgrims, who in the words of their founder Cecil Rhodes, exist to carry out “the seizure of the wealth necessary” (American Review of Reviews, May 1902, pages 557-559). Using Federal power to destroy those in their cross hairs is nothing new. It remains a truly serious threat to anyone with stakes in gold and silver. The invoking of illegal, unconstitutional, anti-Jacksonian, British Crown inspired orders is set to coincide with the creation of “emergency conditions” in order to allegedly justify tyranny. The menace is not based in Moscow or Beijing or Tehran but in New York and London. L-208 was not issued with accompanying explanation to the effect that The Pilgrims Society insinuated its members into the Government in order to take actions to wreck people outside their circles; they cannot be so straightforward as to their pillaging activities; it was issued claiming that gold mining was diverting manpower and machinery away from war construction materials such as copper. In 1943 Utah alone produced 323,989,000 short tons of copper http://historytogo.utah.gov/utah_chapters/mining_and_railroads/coppermining.html There was no need to shut down gold mining; it was a monetary attack against gold and a government forced consolidation of weak interests into stronger ones after the War. The Pilgrims Society doesn’t acquire wealth with free market methods; it installs its members in Government so it can “seize the wealth necessary.”
Ferdinand Eberstadt of the War Production Board that issued Limitation Order L-208, surfaced in the leaked 1969 list of The Pilgrims. Eberstadt founded Eberstadt & Company, investment bankers, and Chemical Fund. He married into the Van Arsdale family, descended from Dutch landowners, and was a member of such internationalist clubs as Lyford Cay (Bahamas). Eberstadt’s papers, stored in the archives of Princeton University Library, reveal his dealings with the anti-silver Dillons; Queen Elizabeth, Patron of The Pilgrims Society; Francis Biddle, once with the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, and member of the Biddle family (Pilgrims Society) associated with the second Bank of the U.S.; Illinois Senator Paul Douglas (anti-silver); President Herbert Hoover, who backed British moves in the Depression against an international silver conference in Mexico City; Cyrus Eaton, notorious Soviet trade promoter associated with Pilgrims member John D. Rockefeller Jr.; Averill Harriman of Lend-Lease; Mellon family operative William Donovan of Office of Strategic Services (forerunner to the CIA); Pilgrims members Allen Dulles (CIA chief) and John Foster Dulles (International Nickel Company; Bank of New York; Rockefeller Foundation; Secretary of State); John T. Connor, a Pilgrims member on the Coinage Commission that recommended the cupronickel slugs; Senator Stuart Symington (Pilgrims) who as Secretary of Defense wrecked Northrop Aviation when it refused to an unfavorable takeover with Atlas Corporation (Convair) controlled by Floyd Odlum (Pilgrims); Clifford Carver (Pilgrims) of the American Whaling Company and other interests who married Helena, daughter of General Sir John Maxwell (Pilgrims) in 1919; and many others.
Eberstadt consulted with the Rockefeller Committee on Department of Defense Organization in March 1953, which probably had to do with defense contractors looting the public. Eberstadt spoke at the Economic Club of New York (anti-silver) on March 15, 1965, while this paper money mob was finishing off silver coins. Eberstadt’s book would have been better titled “The Will To Loot”---
Nevada Senator Patrick McCarran again, in the Mining Congress Journal, February 1951, page 105 revealed---
“In July 1950 the Cuban government announced it would demonetize about 60,000,000 ounces of silver in the form of pesos and issue paper bank notes in their stead. The move was in line with recommendations of a recent Treasury and Federal Reserve Board mission to Cuba. The demonetized silver is to be sold in the New York market over a period of years and in such a way as to not disturb abruptly the operation of the market.”
Silver suppressors don’t seize silver from the public in order to not suppress silver prices!
Pilgrims Society member Dean Acheson was Secretary of State, 1949-1953 and is sometimes called the "Father of NATO" (North Atlantic Treaty Organization), an attempt at regional world government with Great Britain. He was with the Pilgrims Society law firm of Covington & Burling. A member of the Scroll & Key Society of Yale, Acheson was decorated by Sweden, Mexico, Brazil, Columbia, Belgium, Japan, Cambodia and the United States. In "Present At The Creation" (1969---the creation of NATO) he mentions Bilderberg and The Pilgrims Society, one of the extremely rare instances in print anywhere---
Dean Acheson and his fellow Pilgrims Society conspirator Henry Morgenthau Jr., gold and silver stealer, were leaders of the American delegation at the Bretton Woods Conference in 1944, from which sprang the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. The Mining Congress Journal, February 1945, page 93 grimly reported---
"NO FRIENDS OF SILVER WERE INVITED TO ATTEND THE CONFERENCES AT BRETTON WOODS."
Commenting in the Mining Congress Journal for February 1949, page 109, Senator McCarran declared of the promised, but intentionally delayed, IMF report on silver---
“IT IS NOT EXPECTED TO CONTAIN ANY RECOMMENDATIONS FAVORABLE TO SILVER AS MONEY.”
Warren Lee Pierson, Pilgrims Society, was an adviser to the American delegation at the 1944 Bretton Woods Conference, at which monetary silver was excluded from their recommendations---
Pierson chaired All America Cables & Radio; appeared on boards of Trans World Airlines; Investors Diversified Services; Wah Chang Corporation; Molybdenum Corporation; Ionics Incorporated; U.S. Industries; International Telephone & Telegraph I.T.T; Commercial Cable; Verientes Camaguey Sugar; he was a member of Roosevelt’s National Emergency Council, 1934-1936. He held decorations from Mexico, Brazil, Finland, France, Italy, Germany and Portugal. He was adviser to American delegation at Inter-American Conference on Problems of War and Peace, Mexico City, 1945. He was president of the International Chamber of Commerce, 1955-1957.
Laurence John Cadbury, Pilgrims Society of Great Britain, Governor of the Bank of England, 1936-1961, due to his position would have been involved with Lend Lease silver and the start of the London Gold Pool. He became treasurer in 1936 of the Population Investigation Committee, another evidence of The Society intending to reduce world population by warfare and other means (including forced vaccinations!)
Pilgrims Society member William Averell Harriman became chief overseas administrator of Lend-Lease in 1941, supervising among other matters the disbursement of Treasury silver out of his office in London. He was Ambassador to the Soviet Union, 1943-1946 and helped despotic Soviet boss Joseph Stalin increase the industrialization of Russia; Stalin outlawed gold ownership on the part of his tyrannized subjects; under his administration reports reached the West that HIS SUBJECTS WERE SHOT AND IMPRISONED FOR HOARDING SILVER AND EVEN FOR ENCOURAGING OTHERS TO DO SO (New York Times, August 18, 1930, page 6 and August 23, page 4) ---[One great ally there Uncle Joe huh? DC]
Harriman, seen below in Geneva, Switzerland with Soviet boss Nikita Khrushchev, was heir to the great Union Pacific Railroad fortune and the investment bank of Brown Brothers, Harriman & Company at 59 Wall Street. Harriman was Ambassador to the Soviet Union, 1943-1946; to England for several months in 1946; Commerce Secretary, 1946-1948; director, Council on Foreign Relations, 1950-1955; Governor of New York, 1955-1958; and held interests in Polaroid; Southern Pacific Railroad; Illinois Central Railroad; Aviation Corporation; American Hawaiian Steamship Company; Hamburg American Lines; Soviet Georgia Manganese Concessions; Merchant Shipbuilding Corporation; Western Union Telegraph; Manhattan Company; Guaranty Trust; and held many diplomatic posts and Presidential appointments, including Ambassador At Large, 1965-1969 and developed Sun Valley resort area in Idaho---
Harriman’s second marriage was into the Whitney family of Standard Oil heirs and married a Churchill family relative in 1971.
Baron Beaverbrook, Pilgrims of Great Britain (below) was the British representative to the Lend-Lease program. In 1904 he was manager of the Canadian based Royal Securities Corporation and by 1910 had amassed near monopoly control over the cement business in Canada, whereupon he sold out (with a dark cloud over his activities) and left for England. In 1911 he was knighted by King George V, Royal Patron of The Pilgrims Society. By 1918 he founded the Sunday Express which by 1934 achieved daily circulation of 1,708,000, yielding him massive income. In 1941 Beaverbrook and Harriman met with Joseph Stalin and, according to Wikipedia, the Baron was "much impressed;" why not, Stalin opposed gold ownership by his subject peoples! By 1946 his Daily Express attained 3,706,000 daily circulation, easily making him one of the world’s 50 most influential men---
Nevada Silver Senator Key Pittman, in a memo to the Senate Committee on Banking and Currency said (Commercial & Financial Chronicle, March 23, 1940, page 1859) stated---
"Silver is a war metal. During every great war, the demand for silver, chiefly for the purpose of paying soldiers, has increased and the price has risen. Take as an example the effect of the last great World War upon the demand for silver and its great increase in price. In 1913 the world price of silver was 61.2 cents per ounce. In 1915, one year after the war commenced, the price was 67.1 cents per ounce. In 1917 it was 84 cents per ounce. In 1918, it was 98.4 cents per ounce. After the war was over, in 1919, it was $1.12 per ounce. Then the United States Government made available to exporters of silver 50,000,000 of standard silver dollars for the purpose of beating down the price of silver, under the excuse that the silver bullion price had gone above the monetary price in the United States. THE GOVERNMENT INTENDED AND DID ACCOMPLISH THE BEATING DOWN OF SILVER FROM $1.38 AN OUNCE TO 60 CENTS AN OUNCE."
The Government he referred to was chiefly, the President and the Treasury Secretary---Pilgrims Society members.
The New York Times, August 31, 1942, page 25, "Free Silver Stock Diverted To War" reported that 1.35BOZ (1,350,000,000) silver ounces were leased by the Treasury Department for use in war manufacturing plants owned by Pilgrims Society controlled interests.
Pilgrims Society member Henry L. Stimson (below right) with President Truman after dropping atomic bombs on Japan in August 1945. As Secretary of War, 1940-1945, Stimson had full control over the Manhattan Project that developed nuclear weapons. The Manhattan Project used 14,700 tons of silver---about 470MOZ in electrical conducting "busbars" and other construction to enhance technological processes in "calutrons" http://www.atomicarchive.com/History/mp/p4s4.shtml
I mentioned the huge silver bus bars in "War And Silver" (Archives) as also being used in aluminum manufacturing plants for aircraft fuselages. The aluminum industry is very electric intensive, and the Mellon family of Pilgrims Society members with ALCOA dominated (and still does) the domestic industry. Bix Weir had an insightful article as to where silver to cover deficits could have come from---the same silver used by the War Department in the Manhattan Project http://www.silverbearcafe.com/private/silvermystery.html In all events, another case of a Pilgrims Society member influencing events affecting silver at the highest levels. Page 144 of "The Pilgrims of Great Britain" (2002) showed that on June 21, 1956, Harry Truman, former President of the United States, was guest of honor at a meeting of The Pilgrims Society of Great Britain in London. It was presided over by The Earl of Halifax, formerly Lord Irwin, British Viceroy of India, who sponsored the Royal Commission on Indian Currency that made the decision to demonetize India’s silver and dump it on the world market, collapsing world trade, causing the Great Depression and the inevitable events that led up to the second World War.
"THE FAILURE TO RESTORE SILVER AS A MONETARY MEDIUM LED TO THE SECOND WORLD WAR AND THE COLLAPSE OF CHINA."
---The Mining Congress Journal, February 1957, page 118.
The Sunshine Mining Company annual report for 1983, page 5, features this commentary from Dallas resident G. Michael Boswell quoted a diplomatic source as admitting---
“More crucial than strategy were silver coins with which to pay the troops. They did not want gold Yuan, but four silver dollars per month apiece or even two of these would sustain their morale. OTHERWISE COMMUNIST AGENTS COULD BUY THEM OFF WITH HARD MONEY.”
Mike Boswell, whose company was later savagely destroyed by vicious silver shorts, then personally added this---
“In 1937 China was attacked thus beginning a struggle that was not concluded until the Communist victory in 1949. A major factor in the failure of Chinese resistance was the then current silver famine. IT WAS CHIANG KAI-SHEK’S INABILITY TO PAY HIS TROOPS IN SILVER COINS THAT WAS GREATLY RESPONSIBLE FOR CHINA’S LOSS OF ITS MAINLAND TO THE COMMUNISTS.”
Lord Halifax, Pilgrims Society, the same fiend who unleashed the Great Depression on the world by presiding over dumping silver out of British India, was close-in on the action with Stimson, as Halifax was Ambassador to the U.S., 1940-1946.
"GREAT BRITAIN HAS CONTINUED TO SABOTAGE SILVER AS MONEY."
---Nevada silver Senator Patrick McCarran, Mining Congress Journal, February 1948, page 92.
Thomas Harrington McKittrick, Pilgrims Society (1889-1970), was a member of the German Credits Arbitration Commission, 1931-1939 and was president of the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland from 1940-1946. The BIS is often called the world’s central bank and is an entity hostile towards monetary silver and gold. Beginning in 1935 McKittrick chaired Northern Paper & Pulp Works, based in Estonia (could it have been a supplier of currency paper?) When he left BIS he joined the board of the silver suppressing Chase National Bank and was associated with the Economic Cooperation Administration in Paris in 1948 and in 1949 in London. He chaired the committee on monetary relations of the International Chamber of Commerce and was president of the American British Foundation for European Education---
James B. Conant (1893-1978) appeared in the leaked 1969 list of The Pilgrims. He was an adviser to the Rockefeller Foundation and president of Harvard University, 1933-1953. He was Ambassador to West Germany, 1953-1957 and later chaired the Committee on the Present Danger, a warmonger front organization. From 1941-1946 he was chairman of the National Defense Research Committee which played a key role in the Manhattan Project and input into the silver used; he was an adviser to the Atomic Energy Commission, 1947-1952---
In the Commercial & Financial Chronicle, May 16, 1946, page 2703, the Economists National Committee on Monetary Policy called for lowering the silver price. Naturally, none of these fiends were involved in mining silver! One of these economists was Ivan Wright, ex of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. Another was William W. Cumberland, Pilgrims Society (Who’s Who in America, 1946, page 537). Cumberland was appointed governor of the Reserve Bank of Peru for 1923-1924 in an extraordinary example of foreign influence in a silver producing country and held similar posts in Haiti and Nicaragua before joining Wellington & Company, named after the Duke of Wellington, brother in law of General Lord Packenham, bulldozed at New Orleans by Andrew Jackson in 1814 and sent back to London in a casket of rum. Cumberland appeared on such boards as St. Louis & Southwestern Railroad and American Zinc, Lead & Smelting Company. The Economists National Committee on Monetary Policy additionally called for the conspiratorial $35 price cap on gold to be continued on a permanent basis (see "The Conspiracy Against Gold," Archives). Leland Rex Robinson, Pilgrims Society (Who’s Who, 1952, page 2061) was vice president of the Economists National Committee on Monetary Policy, and was with British International Company and a member of the Commission to Study the Organization of Peace (world government).
Henry M. Wriston, Pilgrims Society, was president of Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island (silver using state), and was another member of the Economists National Committee on Monetary Reform. His son Walter became a significant gold price suppressor and second generation Pilgrims Society member.
Wriston senior was a governor of the New York Stock Exchange, and president of The Pilgrims Society’s unofficial subsidiary, the Council on Foreign Relations, from 1951-1964---
Under British Prime Minister Clement Attlee, Pilgrims Society of Great Britain, silver content of U.K. coins was reduced to zero as of 1947. The excuse given was that silver was needed to repay Lend-Lease silver from the United States. It provided a convenient excuse for the synthetic money creators to take Britain off silver coinage---
In “Silver At The Crossroads” (Mining Congress Journal, February 1947) by an unidentified “special correspondent” featured details of some of the British attacks on silver as money---
“Within a fortnight following the battle on silver in the United States, Sir Hugh Dalton, Chancellor of the Exchequer, announced that legislation would soon be offered in the British Parliament designed to withdraw from circulation all silver half-crowns, florins, shillings, six-pences and three-pences for the purpose of melting them down and extracting the silver to provide a stockpile for sale to silver using industries in the British Isles. The silver coins to be withdrawn from circulation are composed of 50 percent silver, 40 percent copper, 5 percent nickel and 5 percent zinc. The new substitute coinage of the same denominations will be composed of 75 percent copper and 25 percent nickel. The agreement under which this silver was lend-leased to Britain requires repayment in kind to the United States Government within five years after the President declares World War II to have ended. British statisticians estimate that a total of 221,000,000 fine ounces of silver would be recovered as a result of this withdrawal. They also estimate that the program of demonetization will yield at the rate of approximately 50,000,000 ounces per annum and that four and one-half years will be required to complete the demonetization program.” (page 84)
“There is at present an industrial demand in the British Isles for 15,000,000 ounces annually. Also it is expected that some of this silver will be exported to India and other Colonial possessions to meet coinage and industrial demands. Under this program the British Government would be able to allocate 35,000,000 ounces of silver per annum for repayment of her silver lend-lease debt to the United States and still have 15,000,000 ounces for sale to industry. If this schedule is adhered to, at the end of five or seven years Britain will have repaid her silver lend-lease obligation of 88,073,878.21 ounces and to have sold for industrial uses 75,000,000 ounces, making a total of 163,000,000 ounces of silver. THIS WOULD LEAVE A STOCKPILE OF 58,000,000 OUNCES WHICH BRITAIN COULD AND PROBABLY WOULD USE TO SWAMP BULLION MARKETS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD IN ORDER TO REDUCE AND MAINTAIN THE WORLD PRICE AT A LOW LEVEL.” (page 84)
“The danger in this situation lies in the possibility that Britain may not elect to repay her silver lend-lease debt before the expiration of five or seven years after the war is officially declared to have ended. In that event Britain would have 35,000,000 ounces of silver per annum TO THROW UPON THE MARKETS AT SUCH TIMES AND PLACES AS WOULD BE DEEMED MOST EXPEDIENT IN ORDER TO CARRY OUT HER PURPOSE OF DEVALUING SILVER THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.” (page 84)
Sir Hugh Dalton was Attlee’s Chancellor of the Exchequer. Dalton’s father was personal chaplain to the Royal family. He was most likely a Pilgrims Society member; the organization is unresponsive to requests for full membership records. Dalton was a member of the Fabian Society, a Pilgrims Society front, attended the Pilgrims Society run London School of Economics, became president of the British Board of Trade, 1942-1945, Chancellor of the Exchequer, 1945-1947 and briefly head of the World Bank. He committed suicide on February 13, 1962---
James Ivers, writing in the Mining Congress Journal, February 1955, page 140 reflected---
“The passing of Senator Pat McCarran of Nevada, on September 28, 1954, is a distinct loss to the cause of silver. He was ever vigilant in his efforts to improve the monetary position of the white metal and always alert in exchanging views with the Executive branch of the Government where he felt the Treasury and State Departments WERE BEING INFLUENCED BY THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT TO ABOLISH SILVER (AND GOLD) AS MONEY.”
Anthony Gustav De Rothschild (1887-1961) surfaced in the 1957 leaked list of The Pilgrims of Great Britain and must have by then been a member for several decades. According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Gustav_de_Rothschild ---
“Anthony de Rothschild was a major force in not only British finance but internationally as well.” “Vast tracts of land” owned by the Rothschilds are mentioned http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascott_House His son was “born into great wealth” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evelyn_Robert_de_Rothschild The son ran The Economist magazine for 17 years and was a De Beers Diamond director for 17 years; the grandson runs the ominously named “Sculpt The Future Foundation” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Mayer_de_Rothschild
Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., Senator from Massachusetts (silversmithing state) from January 1947 to January 1953, of a very prominent family with long history, voted for everything the Silver Users Association wanted. He served as ambassador to the United Nations; South Vietnam; Germany and Vatican State. His name appeared on page 15 of the leaked 1980 list of The Pilgrims, New York---
William Benton, chairman of Encyclopedia Britannica from 1943 to 1973, appeared in the leaked list of The Pilgrims, 1969. EB functioned as a tool influencing public opinion. He was a Democrat Senator from Connecticut from 1949 to 1953 who looked after the silver users interests---
N. Baxter Jackson (Pilgrims 1969, no image) became chairman of Chemical Bank New York in the mid 1950’s and a director of French American Banking Corporation; American Chain & Cable; Alco Products; Home Life Insurance; General Reinsurance Corporation; North Star Reinsurance; Western Electric; Inter-chemical Corporation (silver user for catalysts); and a trustee of Roosevelt Hospital and Vanderbilt University, home of the anti-silver American Economic Association---
Morris E. Garnsey, Professor of Economics at the University of Colorado, member of the anti-silver American Economic Association, writing in Harper’s Magazine, New York, May 1950, pages 98 and 100, article titled, “Heigh-Ho, Silver” belched out this contaminated blather--
“Thus, on the evidence, we may conclude that in the United States silver is no longer needed as money, AND ITS EXISTENCE AS MONEY IS ACTUALLY AN EMBARRASSMENT. This is the sad truth which the silver advocates cannot understand. The simple fact is that silver has absolutely no place in the modern monetary system of the United States. To depend upon silver to regulate the monetary supply or to aid the debtor West is about as sensible as to depend on a Colt .45 to protect us against jet propelled bombers. Our modern banking system, with its ability to create Federal Reserve notes and bank deposits on a fractional gold reserve basis, has given us an extremely flexible money supply. We no longer need silver for the monetary purpose of providing a specie reserve. If the West needs more money today it can appeal to the regional Federal Reserve Bank, to the RFC, or to any one of a dozen other federal credit agencies. SILVER FOR FICTITIOUS MONETARY PURPOSES IS SHEEREST WASTE AND EXTRAVAGANCE---THE SILLIEST KIND OF NONSENSE.”
Garnsey received a Ford Foundation grant in 1957-1958, when the Foundation’s president was Henry T. Heald of The Pilgrims Society who made the cover of Time Magazine, June 10, 1957---
Henry Heald was president of Illinois Institute of Technology, 1940-1952; member National Commission on Accrediting, 1950-1956; chancellor of New York University, 1952-1956; president of the Ford Foundation starting in 1956; as of the 1967 Who’s Who, page 926, he still headed that foundation; and was a member of the anti-silver Economic Club of New York. He was a trustee of Teachers Insurance & Annuity Association and a director of American Telephone & Telegraph; United States Steel; Equitable Life Assurance Society; and Lever Brothers.
World headquarters of top tier Silver Users Association member Dow Chemical is in Midland, Michigan. Leland Ira Doan, Pilgrims Society, headed the company from 1947 to 1962. Coronet Magazine, April 1955, page 108, said one Dow Chemical plant was “loaned” or leased $18,000,000 worth of silver ingots---about 19,780,000 ounces---from the United States Treasury, at 91 cents per ounce! We must assume this was only one instance of the chicanery! Doan was a regent of the University of Michigan and a director of Michigan Bell Telephone. Way to go, Silver Users Association! Way to go, PILGRIMS SOCIETY---seize that wealth from taxpayers, miners, and the entire public of the nation---that silver was supposed to be for MONETARY purposes!
This is the same corporation that harmed veterans with Agent Orange in Vietnam, has severely polluted groundwater over vast areas, and absorbed by merger another Pilgrims Society and Silver Users Association concern---Union Carbide, author of the “Hiroshima of the chemical industry” at Bhopal in India in December 1984!
Leonard Carmichael (1898-1973), Pilgrims Society, had one of the longest biographical profiles of anyone ever in Who’s Who. The 1967 edition, page 340, showed he was with the Natural Resources Planning Board, 1941-1943, an agency established by Pilgrims Society member Franklin Roosevelt; its name tells all. Carmichael was a trustee of the anti-silver Brookings Institution from 1947 for over 20 years. He was a member of the Army Scientific Advisory Panel, 1956-1962 and a director of the White House Historical Association. Carmichael was all over the map; he was president (1939-1940) of the questionable American Psychological Association, which worries about everyone’s behavior except that of its own members, who are exempt from “evaluation;” member War Manpower Commission; director, Research Corporation; Yerkes Laboratories; member National Research Council; trustee Jackson Memorial Laboratory; National Geographic Society; Tufts College; secretary, Smithsonian Institution; decorated by Spain, Denmark, Germany and Italy and a labyrinthine plethora of other stellar accolades---
President Eisenhower (1953-1961) appeared in the leaked list of The Pilgrims, 1969, along with Nelson Rockefeller (center) and Senator Kenneth Keating (right). In late January 1953, Eisenhower ordered an “audit” of gold stored at Fort Knox and the nation was informed “all accounted for.” This Pilgrims Society of global looters has a history of precious metals stealing activities the likes of which can’t be approximated 1% by any other organization---
The Eisenhower Exchange Fellowships, established in 1953, have the same World Government indoctrination and objectives as the more important Rhodes Scholars. Current co-chairman of the Eisenhower Fellowship program are Pilgrims Society members George Herbert Walker Bush and Henry Kissinger.
Marion B. Folsom, Pilgrims Society, was Eisenhower’s Secretary of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, 1955-1958, after which he joined the board of Eastman Kodak Company (Silver Users Association, silver stealers) ---
Folsom was a member of the anti-silver American Economic Association and a trustee of the anti-silver Brookings Institution and the anti-silver National Bureau for Economic Research and a trustee of the University of Rochester (home base of Eastman Kodak). He was Under Secretary of the Treasury in 1953 and a personal friend of George Eastman; silver users were getting metal at taxpayer subsidized rates from the Treasury! Pilgrims Society member, synthetic rubber magnate John Lyon Collyer of Dunlop Tire & B.F. Goodrich was listed as a member of Morgan Guaranty advisory council and a director of Eastman Kodak (Silver Users Association, silver stealers---International Year Book & Statesmen’s Who’s Who, 1969, page 193).
In testimony before the Senate, Dr. C.O. Hardy of the Pilgrims Society front, the Brookings Institution, said "SILVER CERTIFICATES ARE JUST AS MUCH FIAT CURRENCY AS GREENBACKS." (Commercial & Financial Chronicle, June 24, 1939, page 3773). That’s like a car dealer saying “PHYSICAL MOTOR VEHICLES ARE NO MORE SUBSTANTIAL THAN PHOTOS OF MOTOR VEHICLES.”
In the Mining Congress Journal, February 1950, page 109, Nevada silver Senator Patrick McCarran wrote---
“The Reserve Bank of India with reputed stocks of 80,000,000 ounces of silver is in a position to swamp the market at any time, as it did in July. It is estimated that 60,000,000 ounces of the Bank’s holdings came from the seigniorage fund of the United States Treasury under lend-lease during the war. THIS SILVER IS HELD OVER THE BOMBAY MARKET AS A THREAT TO A HIGHER PRICE. THIS IS A DISGRACEFUL SITUATION.”
The Reserve Bank of India, its central bank still harmfully in operation today, was established http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reserve_Bank_of_India as part of the recommendations of the Hilton Young Commission, otherwise known as the Royal Commission on Indian Currency; which as we read earlier, was responsible for dumping Indian silver on world markets, causing the Great Depression and shoving the world away from monetary silver---more Pilgrims Society subversion!
The Commercial and Financial Chronicle for April 30, 1953, pages 1872-1873, featured the speech of retired rear admiral Donald J. Ramsey, legislative counsel to the Silver Users Association, to the Mirror Manufacturers Association in Chicago, on April 17, 1953---
"The silver users are very sympathetic with the problems of the silver miners, but do not feel that anyone should profit at the expense of our monetary system."
Translated---“We the silver users are the illegitimate child of the paper money mob who profits at the expense of the monetary system and are opposed to people being paid in actual money and have no sympathy for the problems we and our sponsors cause the silver miners.”
Allan Sproul, profiled here in December 2009 in "1949 & 2009 Same Con Men," was president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. He was quoted in Vital Speeches of the Day, December 1, 1949, pages 108-114 making menacing remarks including---
"WE HAVE THE QUESTION OF GOLD UNDER CONSTANT SURVEILLANCE. WE HAVE BEEN UNDER ATTACK BECAUSE OF OUR ATTITUDE TOWARD GOLD. A FREE GOLD MARKET IS HERESY. THERE IS NO SENSE IN A MAKE BELIEVE FREE GOLD MARKET. GOLD HAS NO USEFUL PURPOSE TO SERVE IN THE POCKETS OF THE PEOPLE. THERE IS NO HIDDEN PURPOSE. ALMOST ANYTHING WILL SERVE AS MONEY."
While he didn’t mention silver, is there anyone out there who thinks his attitude would have been different about it?
Sproul’s name surfaced in the leaked 1969 list of The Pilgrims, New York---
No wonder Sproul turned up on the board of Wells Fargo.
Pilgrims Society member, Vanderbilt family operative Henry Clay Alexander (named after Henry Clay, one of Andrew Jackson’s banking adversaries fighting to preserve the second United States Bank), profiled here in "Typical J.P. Morgan Racketeer," made the following chilling declaration in an address before the Investment Bankers Association of America, meeting at Hollywood, Florida, on November 28, 1960 (Vital Speeches of the Day) ---
"Our gold policy prohibits residents of the United States from owning refined gold in this country. THAT POLICY SHOULD BE EXTENDED TO PROHIBIT THE OWNERSHIP OF GOLD ANYWHERE BY U.S. RESIDENTS. Why do I place so much stress on sound money?"
President at that time of the Investment Bankers Association of America was Robert H. Craft, Pilgrims Society, of Chase National Bank (1960 Who’s Who in America, page 639). Alexander was a director of General Motors, Standard Brands, Johns Mansville Corporation; Discount Corporation of New York; Federal Reserve Bank of New York; trustee Metropolitan Museum of Art; and was vice chairman of the United States Strategic Bombing Survey, 1944-1945.
J.P. Morgan official, Pilgrims Society member Henry Clay Alexander, opponent of citizen ownership of precious metals---
