THE CHEAPEST,MOST EFFICIENT PRISON OF ALL-YOUR OWN MIND & TO THE ADULTS IN THE ROOM

Letter 11

The Cheapest, Most Efficient Prison 

of All – Your Own Mind 

From the cradle onward we are deliberately taught to think in ways that profit our predators. This is done by those who stand to profit from these purposefully engendered failures of logic. 

For example—remember yourself as a child playing with a set of colored blocks, marbles, or similar objects. What were you taught to focus on? 

You were taught to focus on and identify differences—- difference of color, size, shape, texture, material, transparency—any kind of difference at all was important and emphasized and you were required to recognize and note it. The sameness or similarity of things was used merely as a means to identify differences. Why? 

Why isn’t recognizing similarities inherently as important as recognizing differences? Without recognizing similarities first, we wouldn’t be able to discern differences, but similarities are downplayed because similarities provide the basis for unity and peace and compassion. 

Those who profit from keeping us divided and endlessly at war don’t want us to think in terms of similarities. If we did, we would see the way this learned emphasis on differences allows us to be manipulated and misled, how it teaches us to fear, how it nurtures prejudice of all kinds, and how it makes us susceptible pawns for war-mongers and demagogues. 

This early emphasis on perceiving differences also leads us to think in terms of parts instead of wholes, and in terms of “us” versus “them”. 

This same learned perceptual prejudice results in instinctively thinking in terms of “either/or” when we would be better served by thinking in terms of “and”. 

We are taught to think in terms of endless duality: good versus bad, rich versus poor, right versus wrong, black versus white, Democrat versus Republican, Baptist versus Catholic—-all because it is easier to limit and control and manipulate us when we think this way. 

The slave masters set up the two goads and drive us endlessly between them, and our patterned way of thinking prevents us from breaking free. We become like “dumb, driven cattle” caught between the carrot and the stick, never questioning who is manipulating us or for what reasons. 

In the same way we are taught to think in terms of groups, not individuals. The value of “teamwork” and “command structure” is drummed into us until we feel useless and paralyzed as individuals. We innocently accept such concepts as “collective guilt” or “shared pain” or “group action”—–none of which really exists. 

The individual is the unit of human experience—and is also the limit and expression of all human experience. All the pain that can ever be felt is felt only by individuals –one by one– and it is the same with guilt, happiness, or any other emotion. All actions are taken by individuals—one by one. If you stop and think beyond the outright false or half-truth assumptions you’ve been taught—- “we” are only sums of “I’s”. [So right D.C]

The purposefully induced habit of thinking in terms of groups instead of individuals makes us susceptible to harmful, self defeating assumptions of all kinds. This is why I meet patriots who feel paralyzed like deer in the headlights: oh, my, I don’t have a group! So what do these well-intentioned people do? They set out to create a group or to find a group—not realizing that they already belong to a magnificent and powerful group known as “State Citizens”. 

What they really accomplish by this “group forming” is splintering off into thousands of worthy little specialized closet groups concerned about this or that small aspect of the whole problem, all claiming turf and fighting with and discrediting other such groups, everyone competing for donation money, and nobody getting any closer to seeing –much less addressing– the very real problems that are bearing down on us. 

Hand in hand with the rest of the Group Think Tradition, we have been taught that our country is a democracy. It’s not. It’s a Republic. Democracy embraces mob rule, which means rule of the individual by the group. If the group wants your house, they can take it. If the group wants to tax you to pay their bills, they can. That is democracy. 

Our American form of government is not based on groups of any kind. It is based on Individualism. It says very forthrightly that the individual is owed supremacy over the group when it comes to matters of free will, conscience, religion, and property rights. In a Republic, the mob can’t tax you to pay for their bills. They can’t take away your house or your land to serve themselves just because 51 out of a 100 group members say so. 

Thinking in terms of groups instead of individuals has been taught to you on purpose and with malice-aforethought by the self interested governmental services corporations. These government entities want you to subject yourself to the whims of the crowd, to derive your own identity from your group, to conform in every respect to the herd mentality—-because, again, this makes it easier to defraud you and control you, easier to train you as a soldier, and easier to milk you dry as a taxpayer. 

Hand in hand with “Group Think” comes the learned behavior of looking for authority outside yourself –which leads us to misunderstand the nature and source of authority. All authority, like all experience, depends entirely on individuals, not groups, not hierarchies. All groups and hierarchies always derive any authority they possess secondhand, by delegation. Authority simply does not exist apart from the authority of individual people who may retain their own rulership or give it away as a proxy, recall it at will, or ignorantly deny that they have authority. 

How many modern Americans stand around whining about this or that, without it ever entering their heads that they have the authority to choose otherwise? That they are in fact responsible for making other choices if they want things to change? That they can withdraw their granted authority at will? And that they are responsible for doing so, when the “government” defaults on its contracts? 

How many Americans have meekly assumed that a foreign governmental services corporation headquartered in Washington, DC, has the authority to order them to buy health insurance from the company store? [They do not DC]

We are also falsely taught to respect authority figures whether they earn that respect or not. For example, we are taught to respect Congressmen simply because of their office, no matter how criminal, stupid, immoral, uncaring, greedy, selfish, arrogant or irresponsible they are as individuals. 

We are taught to turn off our common sense when dealing with government officials of any kind, from abusive traffic cops to corrupt judges. We are taught that the normal rules of a decent society do not apply to them and that furthermore, we are not capable of applying such rules to them. 

We are taught to trust these so-called “officials” with our lives and our land and our pocketbooks without question, when sound reasoning and past history should prove beyond any doubt that they deserve to come under the severest kind of discipline and scrutiny. 

So who or what is teaching us to think in these irrational, destructive, self-defeating ways? The public school system and the government-owned media cartels feed us lies and fear-mongering and twisted logic on purpose. It’s called propaganda and we are immersed in it. For a period of time between 1987 and 1989 a group of us kept a nightly tally of news stories being presented on the three major evening news programs: CBS, NBC, and ABC. What we found should shock any thinking person. 

We each kept a tally sheet with three columns. One column was headed “Death”, a second column was headed “Sex” and a third column was headed “Other” to account for all other story subjects combined. 

More than ninety out of a hundred stories on all three networks concerned either death or sex as the main subject, out of those over 60 percent contained elements of both sex and death. 

Why? The Spinmeisters are tweaking our thought patterns and training us to think that (1) sex and death are so very, very important, and (2) that there is a grim and terrifying world we need all sorts of protection from. The overall affect is to generate sales of consumer goods because you are going to die and you might as well get some, and secondly, to generate fear and distrust and a sense of foreboding conducive to keeping people in line and isolated and convincing them that they need more and more and more governmental services. More surveillance. More regulation. More police. The evening news is just another sales pitch for Uncle Sam. 

The trusting pre-conditioned public never stops to wonder about this thoroughly predictable slant of the “news” programming. We are not served by a media system that specializes in such “news” —we are served up. 

Think about what you are thinking and feeling about yourself, about your world, and about other people around you. Step back. Look at it as a Third Party. Ask—who or what benefits from this? Why do I feel anxious and isolated every time I watch the evening news? Why am I looking at all the differences in the world, instead of all the similarities? Why am I kept in a constant state of fear? Why should I put up with being bullied and taxed into oblivion by my own employees? Whose authority is being delegated —and abused—-to run this cesspool? 

You are the one who granted all that authority in the first place. You are paying Mr. Obama and funding his mercenary armies, poised to come roust you out of your homes. You are standing there sending petitions to deaf ears in Washington. But most of all, you are imprisoned by your own mind, by your own indoctrination, to think that you are helpless, that you don’t have a voice, that your individual choices and actions don’t matter. 

There are only individuals on earth. One by one, we tune out the mind fuzz, one by one we reclaim our own authority, and one by one we start taking action. We don’t need groups. We don’t need money. We don’t need authority figures telling us what to do. All we need is to wake up and look around and face the truth. And then one by one, just as surely, we will start to take action to defend our own interests. 

Most of us will pull all our money out of the banks. Most of us will give notice to that THING in Washington, DC, that we are not “US citizens” of any stripe. Some will start demanding the release of plentiful quantities of United States Currency Notes for our own trade purposes. Others will plant their own Victory Gardens. Still more will expose the corruption of the courts. More will start newspaper and production companies to share the real news. All of us, one by one, will move forward by the individual lights we see and before you know it, those 515 people in Washington, DC who are responsible for this mess are going to get the Sleeping Giant’s message without the benefit of loudspeakers or public programming. 

Stop worrying. Stop spinning your wheels. Stop trying to get elected. Stop trying to elect anyone else. There are no legitimate American public offices left to fill at this time, except County Sheriffs, Notaries, Grand Juries, County Judges, and County Coroners. Forget about political parties. Those are just the goads, positive and negative, there to fool you and deplete your time, money, and energy. Don’t sign petitions addressed to your runaway servants. Don’t vote in their private elections. Just vacate your prison like they vacated their public offices. Tell the Secretary of the Treasury that you were defrauded and your ESTATE was included in the bankruptcy proceedings of the United States of America, Inc. by mistake and you don’t intend that it is going to be rolled over as surety for the bankruptcy of Puerto Rico. Tell him to fork over access to your individual trust account and to re-educate the Internal Revenue Service as to its actual purpose. 

One by one and letter by letter, notice by notice, point by point and day by day—keep calm and get even.

Letter # 13

Defined: The Source of the Fraud! 

From the Beginning!

King Juan Carlos of Spain abdicated because the Spanish Monarch is the Trustee of the Human Resources of the planet. 

This block appearing between Spain and the US with “2014” indicates (my opinion) that the first “block” — the first one of ten pieces of the plan is in place. The trusteeship over the world’s people has been removed from the realm of governments on the land and now reverts back to the Holy See and the jurisdiction of the air from whence it sprung. The old “order” is being dismantled, and as it is dismantled, those in back of the Guide Stones are memorializing the steps. The next attacks will come against the jurisdiction of the sea— international commerce and the City of Westminster as foretold in the Bible. Look up the passages regarding the King of Sidon. This will be the result of the vast corruption that has engulfed the governmental services corporations and the real estate market and the currency wars that are presently ongoing. I am conscious of the fact that my work exposing the evils of the court system and the governments of the world is part and parcel of this process, but given the alternatives—- to continue to allow the predation—-?—-there is no choice. 

There was a meeting of the “Currency Committee” of the Queen’s Privy Council yesterday afternoon in which the overall situation was discussed in tandem with the British acceptance of the Chinese reminbi as the basis of bonds— now they (and we) have to deal with the necessity of interacting with metals based currencies and bond markets. This has in turn triggered talk of “resuscitating” the traditional British Pound and American Dollar based on silver, but that in turn necessitates admitting the incredible devaluation of the fiat currency at precisely the same moment in history when the London Silver Fix is defunct…. To give you a view of that, silver in a free market traditionally assumes a position at about 65% of the current value of gold. By that gauge based on hundreds of years of human experience, with gold trading at around $1300 per ounce, silver should be trading at around $850. The current price of an ounce of silver—the price of which has been falsely suppressed for 100 years—is around $20. That ounce of silver you bought today can easily be worth twenty times what you paid tomorrow and 40 times what you paid by the end of next month, as silver naturally “bounces back” to its real parity with gold. So the American and British are faced with (1) finding a new “fix” or (2) buying into this escalating market and AGAINST their own advantage— every ounce of silver they buy to relaunch either the British Pound Sterling or the American Dollar drives the market for silver higher….. it’s like the famous Chinese knucklebuster. The harder they pull, the tighter the noose. This is the pay back for almost a century of self-interested lies promoted by these government services corporations and it is both diabolical and deadly. 

The next attacks will be against the Church itself, which while certainly culpable for some of the worst that has gone on, is still the most cohesive, most powerful, and most organized opponent of the “new order”. Be watchful therefore for attacks aimed at the Pope, the Church in general, and Christianity as a whole. Those in back of the Georgia Guide Stones are Deists, not Satanists. They find the idea of an absolute Evil as childish as the idea of absolute Good, and they revel in illusions and fraud schemes that take advantage of our dualistic educational system — using “good” and “evil” choices as a means to “herd the sheep”. As long as we can be “suckered in” by dualistic thinking, they have ready means to control us. They believe in “a” God, a supernatural “Force” which orders the Universe, but they are not “Christian” and they are not aligned with any other major religion, either. In philosophy and religious practice and belief they are closer to the Founders—Franklin, Washington, et alia–and formally recognize only two “Laws” apart from the “Natural Laws”— the Law of Freewill, stated as “And so long as it harms none, do what ye will.” and the Law of Love, stated as “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” They are more closely aligned to the ancient Druids than anything else— nature worshippers, practitioners of “natural magick”, and yes, blood sacrifices of various kinds. They are not “nice people”, but they are very diligent and serious-minded and they are enemies of the “unsympathetic” world religions— they purposefully set the Jews and Christians and Muslims to fighting each other so that they kill off and diminish their enemies. 

Their take on the Bible is that it is an allegory and spellbook, but they do accept the view that mankind is here on this planet for valid reasons and that it is our fundamental role to act as caretakers of the planet and the animals and to answer the question “What?”— because that is the only question we are competent to answer— via a process of naming and cataloguing and observing the world around us. 

The two duties given to Adam in the Book of Genesis are precisely that— to take care of the Creation and to name it all. 

So there are “points of contact” between the Deists and the rest of the world, but almost unavoidably, even these points of agreement are subject to some strange interpretations on their parts. Because the Deists believe their “religion” to be based on reason and rationality rather than superstition, they are quite snobby and arrogant toward belief systems that they consider “contrived” or “fanciful”. 

Anyway, I hope that explains some other aspects of the struggle before us all. As long as the Deists are not recognized as a specific, identifiable, known and organized group, they can continue their activities undetected, and continue to pit the Christians against the Muslims and the Buddhists against the Christians and the Jews against everyone else. As all these others groups are busy killing each other, the Deists are selling arms to both sides and profiting from the destruction of their competitors. 

They hope that we can all be baited to killing each other, and they will be left with the control of the planet—as they consider themselves to be the only ones intelligent enough and rational enough to rule over everyone else. They call the rest of us “livestock” and consider themselves to be gentlemen farmers, living off the labor and assets of others, and that this is the only rational and right outcome—-the “result” of our “believing in fantasies” and “sophomoric belief in right and wrong”. 

So this is just another level and aspect of the overall situation. The Deists were heavily represented among the Founders who knew that King George was funding both sides of the war, that it was a sham to replace the old government with a new government in order to overturn the Treaty of the Delawares promising there would be no colonies beyond the Appalachians– something that both the King and George Washington and Company wanted to avoid keeping their word on. This is how they opened up the Continent. They changed the management. By now you have noticed that from the very first George Washington took his Oath to “the United States” —a commercial company—and not to any “united States of America”, and that he chose the office of “President”— a commercial office, not the office of a head of state. 

The fraud, my dears, goes back to the Founding

Letter 14

To the adults in the room… 

by Judge Anna von Reitz  

Scientists have studied various forms of sociopathic behavior for many years and we’ve become familiar with some of the names of the mental-emotional illnesses they have been able to discern: Bipolar Syndrome, Severe Character Default, Borderline Syndrome, Narcissism and so on. It should not surprise us that underlying many of these illnesses is a common denominator: lack of conscience. 

About one in twenty-five of us are born either without any conscience at all, or with a faulty sense of conscience such that those affected are unable to consistently tell right from wrong. 

This leads them to commit all manner of atrocities and to feel no connection to or regret regarding the results. 

These people are not so much intrinsically evil as clueless. Without any sense of justice or empathy, they simply do whatever is most expedient to satisfy their own immediate gratification. Think of a two year-old child: he’s hungry, so he takes your food– or he’s angry, so he bites your leg. He’s genuinely surprised when you react negatively, because he has no concept of how his actions affect others and is equally unaware that they have hunger pangs and angry urges, too. 

Young sociopaths continue to accumulate practical information about the world around them which allows them to function in it, but emotionally they never grow up, never develop any true sense of empathy. They learn “right and wrong” behavior to some extent by rote, without any real understanding of why it’s wrong to murder someone or why it’s wrong to steal. 

These often charming and energetic individuals create most of the conflict and misery in the world. They can be very gifted, focused, intellectually brilliant, capable of intricate planning, and they often exude charismatic energy. They will say and do whatever it takes to get what they want, without regard for truth, fairness, or even reality. They learn to manipulate others to achieve their own gratification, but their lack of real empathy and their selfishness becomes apparent over time. 

Their predilection for lying also becomes apparent. 

Ever dealt with a small child caught in the act of say, stealing a cookie? Or stepping on an animal’s tail to make it yowl, quite unaware of the pain they are causing? Ever listened to a long, rambling recitation of lies and made up stories designed to justify and explain away why they missed the school bus? They lie about things that no mature person would consider lying about. 

Even if morality didn’t dictate an honest response, mature people have a fine sense of what is plausible and what will stand up to scrutiny. If they tell a lie, it won’t be about a blue dinosaur sleeping on the sidewalk or unemployment statistics that are obviously skewed, weapons of mass destruction that don’t exist, 747’s that hit a building the size of the Pentagon and leave nothing but a sixteen foot wide breach in two walls, or steel girders that melt at normal fire temperatures. 

Normal people feel no great need or desire to control others, but sociopaths do. A two year-old is dependent on others and quickly learns to manipulate Mommy and Daddy. In the same way, sociopaths believe themselves to be dependent on others and so constantly seek means to manipulate and control the people and circumstances surrounding them.

As such, they naturally seek positions of power over others in the same way a cat will seek out the warmest spot in the house. 

What better or more powerful position from which to control others, than in public office? 

So long as we let government control us, we unwittingly create a magnet for sociopaths that draws them into politics like water flowing downhill. 

The two year-olds take over, and then we wonder why there is mayhem, chaos, and misery. Note the rise of Adolph Hitler. For several years he accomplished miracles, resurrecting the German economy out of rubble and ruin to be a world-shaking juggernaut. If he had remained focused on economic and commercial supremacy, Germany would have ruled the world without a war—but like all sociopaths, Hitler felt the need for absolute control. He had to have all the building blocks, all the marbles, all the color crayons. 

Have you ever encountered a very young child who immediately seized on anything and everything in their environment and shouted, “Mine! Mine! Mine!”? 

By now it should be easier for everyone who has ever taken care of small children to recognize sociopaths in politics, but merely recognizing them is not enough. 

To permanently disconnect the attraction that public office holds for sociopaths, we must each accept our own ruler-ship and apply it. 

That is what the Founders were talking about when they spoke about “self-governance”. It’s a concept that goes far beyond ballot boxes or refusing the authority of kings. It strikes to the heart of the human condition. 

Will we stand on our own two feet and accept our authority and the responsibility that goes with it? Will we truly be “self-governing”—-? 

Two generations of Americans have neglected this duty with the result that elected officials are not even occupying the public offices they were elected to serve. They are occupying look-alike private corporate offices instead and running amok in conflict of interest, abusing their position of trust to plunder public assets for private gain and an alarming number of sociopaths have risen to positions of power. 

Our failure to govern ourselves and take responsibility for our own property, our own lives, our own families, our own communities—has opened up a vacuum of power that crooks and sociopaths have manipulated for their own ends. 

It is axiomatic that if you don’t rule over yourself, others will rule over you. This is one job that you literally can’t afford to neglect. If you don’t want crooks and sociopaths spending your money, abusing your resources, and telling you how high to jump— you have to accept and apply your own ruler-ship. 

Today. This moment. Lift up your heads and imagine a world where two year-olds crack the whip, mandate your health care options, and decide whether or not we all die in a nuclear war? A world where crooks siphon off the benefit of your labors, steal your homes in exchange for worthless paper, and terrorize you with threats of imprisonment in their own for-profit “federal” correctional facilities? 

Is this how your governmental services contract reads? Is this what you are willing to put up with from an entity that has no more natural authority over you than JC PENNY? 

Think about it for five seconds and get your king on.

PART 6: THE SILVER STEALERS

Presented © January 2011-2017 by Charles Savoie

@http://silverstealers.net/An Initiative to Protect Private Property Rights of American Citizens

“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.
