  • Banking, Currency, and the Money Trust, and in 1917 He Wrote "Why Is Your Country at War?," Attributing High Finance As America's Involvement in World War I
    an H L DI T n 0 U U Ie The Faithfulness of this reproduction cannot be vouched for. It was taken from web published pages online and not directly from a copy of the book itself. Authentic Copies of it are extremely hard to acquire for they are routinely taken out of circulation. In 1913, Congressman Charles August Lindbergh Sr. (father of the famed aviator) wrote:. Banking, Currency, and the Money Trust, and in 1917 he wrote "Why is Your Country at War?," attributing high finance as America's involvement in World War I. According to Eustace Mullins, in his book, PUBLIC CENTRAL BANK - On Reclaiming Our Central Bank And Monetary Policy -, plates of Congressman Lindbergh's second book were confiscated and destroyed by Government agents. Banking and Currency and The Money Trust by CHARLES A. LINDBERGH The market prices of commodities vary from day to day and often several times a day. This occurs when there is no radical difference in the proportion of the supply and the natural demand. This fact is conclusive proof that our system is controlled by manipulators and fundamentally wrong. I have sought to elucidate this problem within this volume and have suggested a plan which, if adopted, would make the people the master of the world, instead of the present master—THE MONEY TRUST. By Charles A. Lindbergh, Author of the Money Trust Investigation. The price of this book is $1, cloth bound, 50 cents, paper bound. Copies may be secured from C.A. LINDBERGH, LITTLE FALLS, MINNESOTA. Charles August Lindbergh was born in Stockholm, Sweden on January 20, 1859, the eldest of the seven children of August and Louise Lindbergh.
