CONTROL of CREDIT Is One of the Vital Factors Affecting the Lives of the People BEWARE OF LYING PROPAGANDA FOLLOW CANADA’S LEAD! WHERE STATE CONTROL OF CREDIT HAD A SWEEPING VICTORY • • • W. L. Mackenzie King, now Prime Minister of Canada, said: "Canada is faced with a great battle between money power and the power of the people. Once a nation parts with the control of its currency and credit, it matters not who makes the Nation’s laws. Usury once in control will wreck any nation.” “Until the control of currency and credit is restored to the Government and reorganised as its most conspicuous and sacred responsibility, all talk of sovereignty of the people is idle and futile.” —Policy Speech at Saskatoon. • • • M. J. Savage M.P., Leader of the N.Z. Labour Party, says; “The power of money was the greatest influence wielded to-day and ... the time had come for thinking people to face up to the problem of the control of credit and currency in order to make the medium of exchange serve the needs of the people. Unless increasing production was reflected in the homes of the people in the form of increased leisure, education, and general welfare, there was little inducement to greater efforts to increase the country’s wealth. “Vested interests will spend thousands during the present campaign in order to mislead the people and in an endeavour to maintain their power, but with a majority in Parliament, Labour'would face the issue and safeguard the people’s rights and savings.” —Policy Speech at Wellington.
