SOMETHING WRONG
In this connection I quote from the N. Y. Times of Jan. 30, 19 37, part of a suggestive display-advertisement published by the Polish Newspaper Guild of America, protesting against American Jewry's attack on Poland. It said: "There must be SOMETHING wrong somewhere if millions and millions of Germans, Arabs, Hungarians, Rumanians, French, English, Italians, Poles, Russians

Today
In the United States the real Jewish Problem is neither racial nor religious, as many Jews hold and some Gentiles believe. Its subversive power is economic. The racial-religious injection is on a par with the "AntiSemitic" camouflage designation by Jews.

"Since Mr. Edmondson has attacked Jews on economic grounds, why have they attacked him in court on religious grounds?"
The subject listed for this address is "Anti-Semitic Causes of Today". Quotation marks enclose the word "Anti-Semitic" because it is a misleading term. It is of primary importance to know exactly what we are to talk about before analyzing a subject. Therefore, let us examine the designation "Anti-Semitic",
The answer is, that the camouflage strategy of Jewish Leadership, to dupe Gentiles, is to divert from the heart of the matter by (1) Generalities, (2) Religion,
(3) Race, (4) anti-Semitism, (5)
War and
Fascism.)
The number of Arabs, Syrians and Egyptians who are also Semites practically equals the Jewish world population total as supplied by Jewish authorities.
Therefore, to be "Anti-Semitic" you must be against of the so-called Semite Race which is an absurdity, since most Occidental peoples contact only the Jewish Oriental or Asiatic Semites.

EXISTENCE THREATENED,
Husseini, Arab Nationalist Party Leader, aptly sums up the crisis in the N. Y. Times of June 21, 1936, saying: "European newspapers mention 'Anti-Semitism' in Palestine.
In "The Truth About The Jews", published in 1922 by Walter Hurt, the most pro-Jewish Gentile writer I have contacted, the following economic admission is made: "Racial prejudice rises only when different races come into direct economic conflict. His (the Jew's) economic ethics are not those of the Gentile. The Jew being an Oriental, his mental processes are unlike those of the Occidental. He exists in a mental ghetto. Even as the characters of the Hebrew language read backward, so do Jews think reversely." Hurt goes on to say: "Modern Finance is chiefly the creation of the Jews. They found that the sceptre of power was fashioned of gold. Possession of much of this metal made an enslaved people masters ol their masters."
This is nonsense, as we ourselves are Semites. We turn against the Jews not because they are Jews, but because they threaten our existence". In presenting this matter to you I wish to make my
position crystal clear. I sincerely believe in the truth of the information offered. It is submitted and analyzed with the justifiable motive of concern for the public welfare. While the heart of the trouble is economic, in my opinion, the important fields of politics, publicity, religion and race have been invaded in varying extent.

Where there is an effect, there must be a cause. There must be an offensive Jewism before there can be a defensive reaction of Anti-Jewism. Let us diagnose from symptom back to origin.
The London Jewish Chronicle of June 2 6, 19 36, reports President N. J. Laski of the important Board of Deputies of British Jews, as confessing: "The Jewish Question is net so much anti-Semitic as it is an economic question." "The Blackshirt" publication of London in its Sept. 5, 1936 issue, declared: "We attack Jews on economic grounds; and in so attacking them we are secure in the knowledge that our cause is just; our case is stoong, and our facts are absolutely undeniable." The British Guardian of July-August, 1924, reports Karl Marx, "Jewish Father of Communism", as having said: "What is the basis of Judaism? A practical passion and greed for profit. To what can we reduce his (the Jew's) religious worship? To extortion. What is his real

International economic boycott against Germany for expelling Jewish-Communists, according to a statement of Boycott Chairman Kalb, quoted in the N. Y. Herald-Tribune of Jan. 9, 1937 has caused the U. S. a loss of $50,000,000 in trade with a friendly nation.
The N. Y. World, Dec. 13, 1923, quoted Correspondent Clare Sheridan regarding Russia as reporting: "The Communists are Jews, and Russia Is being entirely administered by them.'*
The 1919 Overman Report to Congress, quoting Rev. Dr. George Albert Simons of the U. S., formerly resident in St. Petersburg: "In the Northern Community of St. Petersburg out of 388 members only 16 happened to be Russians. All the rest were Jews. 2 65 came from the lower East Side of New York."

SOVIET.
Let us examine the record of the Soviet, where antiSemitism is punished by death. This confession is from the American Hebrew of Sept. 10, 1920: "The Bolshevist revolution was largely the outcome of Jewish thinking and discontent. What Jewish Idealism and discontent have so powerfully contributed to accomplish in Russia, the same historic qualities of the Jewish mind and heart are tending to promote in other
countries."
The preface to the 1920 "World Significance of the Russian Revolution" was written by London Jewish Savant Dr. Oscar Levy. He admits: Jewish, elements supply the driving force for both Communism and Capitalism."

Leader, we read: "When we Jews sink we become a revolutionary proletariat (Communistic) when we rise there also arises our terrible power of the purse"
(Capitalistic).
"The ideals of Bolshevism are at many points consonant with the finest Ideals of Judaism." Jewish Author Lewis Brown's 19 34 book, "How Odd of God" declares: "We intend to remake the Gentile - - - what the Communists are doing in Russia," The National Workers Party of Great Britain has reprinted the 1920 booklet "Jews in Russia" by Victor Marsden, London correspondent in Russia. In it are the names of Bolsheviki officials totalling 5 45, of whom 447 were Jews. Of 11 members of the Central Committee of the opposing Mensheviki Party, 11 were Jews. Of the 15 members of the Committee of the Socialist Revolutionary Party of the Right, 14 were Jews. Of the 12 members of the Committee of the Socialist Revolutionary Party of the Left, 10 were Jews. Of the 12 members of the Polish Commune, 12 were Jews. In other words, Jews are in key-control positions of all parties. At the 1934 N. Y. State election for Governor, Lehman was Democratic candidate, Moses the Republican nominee, Solomon the Socialist and Amter the Communist. Do you find in this Jewish monopoly any cause for "anti-Semitism"?
Rabbi S. S. Wise was quoted in the N. Y. Times of Jan. 25, 1937, as saying: "There is no reason in much, if not most anti-Semitism." In support of his assertion he cited an attack in Prague on "Jewish Capitalist-Communist domination", declaring that the two were in oppositon; yet Jewish Capitalist multimillionare Blum, Premier of France, has been actively promoting Soviet Communistic rule in Spain as well as in France,
CAPITALISM FINANCES COMMUNISM From "The Truth about the Slump" (1932) by
A, N. Field: "The enormously significant thing today is that the Jewish 'power of the purse' and revolutionary activity are working in a common direction; and there is a mass of evidence that they are working in unison." Is Jewish Communism the tool used by Jewish Capitalism to subvert Gentiles? I believe it is.
From the Brooklyn Jewish Examiner of Oct. 20, 1933: "The Roosevelt Administration has selected more Jews to fill influential positions than any previous administration;" referring to Bernard M, Baruch as "Unofficial President"; to Felix Frankfurter as "one of the
President's most trusted advisors"; and to Judge Rosenman as "Roosevelt's Right Arm".

Kaganowitch, Finkelstein-Litvinoff, Voriloshoff and Yagoda, the "Soviet Big Five", are all Jews or married to Jewesses. I have documentary evidence that Lenin was Jewish, as was his wife and Trotzky.
This is from the Congressional Record of June 27, 1934, by the late Congressman Louis T. McFadden of Penna.: "There has not been an administration since our advent into the world war in which Bernard M. Baruch has not been a chief political, economic and financial advisor; and every administration that has listened to him has carried us deeper and deeper into financial chaos."
The Saturday Evening Post of Oct. 26, 1935; quoting "N. R. A. General" Hugh Johnson: "Frankfurter is the most influential single individual in the TJ. S," Frankwas born in furter, dubbed "Karl Marx Professor", Austria, and is a National Committeeman of the American Civil Liberties Union, which was described in Congressional Report 2290 of June 17, 1931, as "closely affiliated with the Communist movement in the U. S."; adding "It ij quite apparent that its main function is to protect Communists in their advocacy of force and violence to overthrow the TJ. S. Government. Its chief counsel is Arthur Garfield Hays, a Jew.

The London Jewish Chronicle of February 7, 1936, published a letter on the world war by former Jewish Propaganda Agent S. Landman of the British Government, reading in part: "The only way to induce the American President to come into the world war was to secure the cooperation of Zionist Jewry by promising them Palestine. Zionists carried out their part and helped to bring America into the War." The N. Y. American of June 16, 1936, reported: "The promise of a national home for Jews in Palestine to gain world-wide support for the Allied Cause in the World War was detailed to the House of Commons today by David Lloyd George, who said 'I bear testimony to the

There is Jewish propaganda control of our press, radio and screen, as will be shown later. From the March, 1925, issue of the British "National Review", quoting Arthur Kitson, World Dean of Independent Economists: "The aim of the International Financiers (Jewish) is world control by the creation of inextinguishable debt." "Secret Societies," a book by Nesta H. Webster of England, contains this: "The hope of world domination is not an idea attributed to the Jews by anti-Semites, but is a very real and essential part of their traditions." The N. Y.

In this politico-economic connection, note that the son of Rabbi S. S. Wise, James Waterman Wise, wrote in the "New Masses" magazine of Oct. 29, 1935: "Jews who deny that many Jews are Communists are jockeying themselves into the position of citizens on toleration."

The "Christian Century" of Chicago in its April 29th and May 13th, 19 36, issues, contains this indictment: "Most non-Jewish Americans know little of the aspirations of the Jews. When they learn, their complacency in present ignorance is likely to be greatly disturbed. Jewry is a mutual benefit organization. It is also a propagandist organization. American society is an organism, and as such its vital forces tend toward solidarity, unity, integration. Any unassimiable element of the population is bound to have trouble because it is bound to MAKE trouble". N. Y.

This is from an address July 9, 1926, before the Bucknell University Summer School, reporting General Counsel Hanson of the American Publishers Ass'n. "The National Administration has hired more newspapermen to write news for the government than were employed by the newspapers. It bottled up the sources of the news." The 1934 booklet "Underlying Causes of our Dequotes John Swinton, a pression" by E. H. Peterson, brilliant editorial writer, as saying publicly: "I am paid $150 a week to keep honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others are paid like salaries for doing similar work. We are tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes." Horace Mann, the great educator, said: "I hold treason against this government to be an enormous crime; but, great as it is, I hold treason against free speech to be incomparatably greater."

The January 10, 1937, issue of the Jewish N. Y.

The Jewish Religion is opposed to Christianity, and to the Catholic Church in particular. The masses of the Jewish people have not forgotten the sufferings the Jews underwent at the hands of the Catholic Church."

In other words, a boycott was demanded by a minority who evidently regard themselves as unassimilable aliens in the TJ. S.

Money-control does. It works behind Gentile Fronts. One subversive key-post Jew, backed by the practically unlimited wealth of Jewish Solidarity, can easily dominate his associates just as a few "sit-down" strikers, holding key plants, can deny willing thousands the right to work.
