swindling game is perpetrated.
    The financiers educate the people as they want them educated from the day they are born until the day of their death.
    The little children's minds are inoculated with the interest swindle as soon as they begin to count and use the multiplication table. They are taught interest, Discounts and Banking as part of their education before their little brains are capable of knowing that they are being taught to defraud one another out of what they will produce through their own efforts.
    The people as a rule do not realize what a terrible thing it is until they get old and feeble and have their homes stolen from them be­cause they cannot pay the interest charges on loans or taxes. It is then too late for them to do anything about it.
    The Colleges are controlled by financiers because they donate large sums to uphold these fraudulent methods. So the children step up from public schools to higher grades and into universities where the finishing touches are given to them to become first class polish­ed swindlers.
    The financiers laugh at those innocents who graduate from universities. They call them block-heads and have had square hats invent­ed for them to wear and have their pictures taken in so as to prove to the world at large that they are their scholars.
    The financiers have the practical newspaper owners in a bad way for they have loaned them large sums of money with which to buy up-to-date machinery and modern buildings, and these publishers are kept in continual debt un­der the interest collection swindle so that they must say nothing in their papers that will show up the interest and credit system where­by the American people have been defrauded of most of their wealth and will finally be defrauded of all of their wealth and future earnings.
    The people should have a free press and no

one wants a free press more than the practical news­paper owners, editors and writers. But the fi­nan­ciers have a strangling hold on their throats and unless interest is abolished it is safe to say that within the next five or ten years there won't be a newspaper or magazine published in the United States that will not be owned by the fi­nan­ciers—yes, owned by those who do nothing to produce the machinery, the buildings or the operating of newspaper and magazine plants.
    The Radio is owned and controlled by the financiers and is used as a most poisonous weap­on to degenerate the people. It turns think­ing be­ings into radio drunks.
    What was to have been a blessing for hu­manity has been turned into a curse by the swindlers who cheat the people out of their earnings and then make them like it by the buffoonery that they carry right into the homes and beds of their gullible victims.
    It would be much better for the people to go on whiskey drunks than to go on radio drunks. One can get over a whiskey drunk but a radio drunk stays with you forever. It ruins all chances of a human being ever using its rea­soning faculties.
    The function of reason is developed by pro­per thinking and as one cannot think right without truth and as one seldom hears the truth over the radio the mind gradually rots away under the pressure of falsity and be­comes absolutely use­less forever afterwards for natural purposes.
    One cannot expect to hear the truth from swindlers and as the financiers own the radio the dupes who listen to their falsehoods are not only victims of their slippery methods but their rea­son­ing functions shrink to inactivity for the lack of mental effort in learning actual facts in­stead of loafing about in easy chairs listening to the smooth gab of the Financiers' Touts.
    The few mastodon financiers who take away from the smaller sharpers everything that they have cheated the wealth producers out of are now engaged in the biggest and most far-reach-
