"WIPE OUT GOLD"

MR. FORD'S PLAN TO STOP ALL WAR.

Mr. Henry Ford, motor-car manufacturer, hae another bright ilca. To day he announces a new This project for the abolition of war. time he proposes the wiping out of gold as a basis of currency, "subsitat- ing for it the world's imperishable natural wealth"

In gold Mr. Ford sees the root of rest of the evils of the world and the cause of all wars. If you knocked at every house in every street in every city in the world and asked the people inside if they wanted ware," said Mr. Ford every man and woman would say, 'God rave us from wars 1*

Why are there wars? It is because there is profit in wars, profit in gold. The world's small supply of gold is now in the hands of a small It is of international bankers. group become a 4:urso to them because hoarded guld earns nothing. They mast keep it turning, and stable con- ditions of peace don't keep it turning fast enough.

"The way to keep it hard at work is to create an enormous demand for loans, and a way to do that in to create wur."

This statement was made by Mr. Ford at Florence, Alabama, where ho has just arrived with Mr. Thomas Edison to inspect the great Muscle Shoals

nitrate water power and manufacturing plant partly built by the Government during the war now in the market. "The Government estimate that £10,000,000 is required' to complete the work at Muscle Shouls," he said "By the time they would have paid it back they would another have paid the bankers £22,000.00 interest.

"My way would be to print bank.. notes to the amount of £10,000,000 and withdraw them out of the profita of the plant. Then the bankers who didn't build the dam would get nothing. If all great utilities were financed in this way money sellers would disappear.'

Mr Ford has offered the Goverb- ment £5,000 000 for the Muscle Bhool plant, which, he says, lie would ex- ploit 'not. for private profit but in the service of the people."
