Book One IMMIGRANTS Against This World THE BRINGER of the name Roosevelt to America was a shadowy Dutchman about whom extraordinarily little is known. He slips vaguely through the scattered annals of New Amster- dam, hardly more than a footnote to the history of that trading post which became an English colony almost before it was a Dutch town. If we accept the legend that has grown up around him, he was an amazing adventurer, a man of imagination and great courage, who deserves better recognition than he has man- aged to attain in the 304 years since his name first crept into the records of that outpost of the Old World. But if we seek his biography in the few blotted words that have survived, then he was just another farmer and trader who lived in reasonable honesty and industry from the fruits of a small acreage at the lower end of the island of Manhattan. The history of his descendants, however, stems from more documented sources than the hazy story of Claes Martenszen van Rosenvelt or Nicholas, the son of Martin, of the Rose Field, as the Dutch progenitor of all the Roosevelts was known in his time. Indeed it does not properly begin with his un- recorded arrival in New Netherland, but in England and with two men of slight contemporary distinction-the one a weaver and the other a tailor-who busied themselves with the affairs of Separatism and the founding of the English colony at Plymouth on Massachusetts Bay. And it quickly includes a dozen or more common people of mixed European extraction 3 4 THE AMAZING ROOSEVELT FAMILY who, like the Dutch farmer and the English tradesmen, played their own comparatively inconspicuous parts in the tremendous drama the entire Western World was experiencing as the Seven- teenth Century dawned. Not one of the immigrant antecedents of Theodore and Franklin Delano Roosevelt came closer to greatness than the outermost fringe. They were ordinary folk who were picked up and swept from the accustomed channels of their lives by the surging tide of history that was then changing the face of the world. Great forces beat against them and they reacted to the inescapable, as little people have at all times. Some were charged by a spiritual emotion that caused them to turn like Saint Andrew from home and kindred; others were carried along by the fierce drift of those forces of economic expansion which they could not understand and over which they had no control. All of them-English and Dutch and German and French-eventu- ally reached the New World. And there, through the mysteries of life-through love or the hope of greater fortune-they met and merged. Time and genetics did the rest. The personal motives which brought to America the men and women who were to form the Roosevelt family, as it has come down to the present time in two straight lines, were as varied as their names. As was the case with all who crossed the seas to settle on these unfriendly shores they were moved to do so by a variety of general reasons that underlay the entire colo- nization of America, whether English or Dutch or French. As any number of authorities have shown, these were partly religious but primarily economic, and this truism applies as well to those who froze and starved at Plymouth as to those who dodged the Indians along the Hudson or planted corn in Virginia's warmer sun. The sanctification of the codfish as much as any desire for religious freedom made the settling of New England a possi- bility and the Dutch never denied they were seeking the beaver rather than a place in which to worship God without restraint. These forces .did not break suddenly upon an unsuspecting world. They had been building up slowly, gradually gaining momentum over a long stretch of time. Nor did they cascade without warning upon the shores of the Americas, throwing great armies of builders and toilers into the new land. The AGAINST THIS WORLD 5 infiltration from the Old World was slow and that from England was not part of a conscious plan for empire. As the Sixteenth Century drew into its last quarter some Englishmen and many Scotsmen, it is true, had begun to look across the seas with quizzical and even hungry eyes. But even then the bulk of Eng- land's sea dogs were only fishermen. It was not until 1578 that Sir Humphrey Gilbert, who was Sir Walter Raleigh's half- brother, received the first patent from the Crown giving him the right to colonize and rule such lands as he might choose from those he discovered. There was no cry of Lebensraum in those days, Neither Eng- land nor Holland was crowded with people restless from the lack of food or work. And so there was no exodus en masse from either country. Indeed, as a colonizer Sir Humphrey was a fail- ure and for several years thereafter colonization was looked upon as a bad investment by the London adventurers who, in the changed economy of their country, were seeking a return for their growing wealth. Feudalism was rapidly disappearing from the island and commercialism was in the ascendancy, based on the fortunes brought back by the privateers who preyed on the ships of Spain. With this new-found wealth there was a demand for luxuries and the London merchants fattened their purses as ship after ship came home, deep-laden with treasure from distant lands.

  • The Federal Reserve Conspiracy
    THE FEDERAL RESERVE CONSPIRACY by Antony C. Sutton About the Author: Antony C. Sutton, D.Sc. was born in London, England in 1925, spent most of his life in the United States and has been a citizen for 40 years. With an academic background in economics and engineering, Sutton has worked in mining exploration, iron and steel industries before graduate school at UCLA. In the 1960s he was Professor of Economics at California State University, Los Angeles, followed by seven years as a Research Fellow at Stanford University. While at the Hoover Institution (Stanford), Sutton wrote the three volume definitive work on Soviet technology, Western Technology and Soviet Economic Development (still in print after 25 years). This was followed by National Suicide: Military Aid to the Soviet Union (Arlington House) which accused the Establishment of killing Americans in Vietnam with our own technology. Hoover Institution, under pressure from the White House, arbitrarily converted Sutton to a "non-person" by removing his Fellowship. Intrigued by the powerful forces behind this assault, he then researched and wrote another three volumes on the financial and political support given by Wall Street international bankers to three variants of socialism. These were published as Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution, Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler and Wall Street and FDR (all in the 1970s). After leaving Stanford, Sutton edited The Phoenix Letter, a monthly newsletter on the Abuse of Power (still published today) and in 1990 started another newsletter, Future Technology Intelligence Report, covering suppressed technology. In philosophy a strong constitutionalist, the author freely expresses his contempt for Washington usurpation of political power...but always based on the facts.
