A SPENDING PROPOSAL
Sir.—ln reply to "Knowledge is Power,” I would inform him that. I have been trying to fault the social credit proposals since 1929 and have yet to hear a sound argument against them. Bankers and other moneylenders have misrepresented them and then pulled them to pieces, but if “The Press” will give me some space I would be pleased to give some details. as I am convinced' that if we do not use them we will have a slump—that is, unless a war intervenes, when plenty of money will be found. One of three things can now happen: we can have a war, a slump, or social credit. Which will we have? For evil to triumph it only needs that people are kept in ignorance of the knowledge to fight it and that those who have the knowledge are prevented from imparting it.—Yours, etc., AVOID A SLUMP. August 18. 1952.
