Secrets of the Federal Reserve the London Connection [Paperback]

Eustace Mullins (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: 1985

Originally commissioned by Ezra Pound, whose short introduction appears here for the first time, the book made a brief appearance in an earlier version, 1952, which was supressed, the German version even being burnt en masse. Finally, after years of travails, this updated and expanded new edition was able to be published, and dedicated to Pound, who, owing to his status in 1952, had to remain in the background. Per the publisher's note, the author proves that a group of international bankers, headquartered in London, secretly met on Jekyll Island, Georgia in 1910 and drafted the Federal Reserve Act to gain control of the money and credit of the American people, then bought up shares in the Federal Reserve Banks, and had themselves appointed to its Board of Governors. They then launched World War I, financed the Russian Revolution, Soviet Union and Hitler's rise to power, and essentially caused the Great Depression. The book is brought up to date (1983) by an expose of the players in the Ronald Reagan administration, including George W Bush, George Schultz and Caspar Weinberger, both associated with Bechtel Corporation.

This review is from: Secrets of the Federal Reserve the London Connection (Paperback)

Money is the worst of all contraband. - William Jennings Bryan.

_The Secrets of the Federal Reserve - The London Connection_, published in 1984 by Bankers Research Institute, by populist author Eustace Mullins is a fascinating account of the history and development of the Federal Reserve Banking system and the tyranny that such a system has imposed upon the American people. Eustace Mullins (born 1923) was a protégé of the writer and poet Ezra Pound and writes in the proud populist tradition of opposition to the moneyed elite and powerful bankers. Pound took a strong stance against the banking system and was imprisoned in a mental institution for a time for opposing the entry of the United States into the Second World War. In this book Mullins reveals the secrets behind the Federal Reserve banking system, showing that the Federal Reserve bank is in fact a cartel of ultra-rich bankers whose sole purpose is to increase the coffers and political control of the elite, and in fact is neither federal nor a reserve. Mullins maintains that the Federal Reserve system was set up in secret by a group of bankers representing international banking interests in a top secret meeting which took place at Jekyll Island, Georgia in 1910. These same financiers then appointed themselves to top positions within the Federal Reserve Board after the Federal Reserve Act was made law. Subsequently the Federal Reserve system was used to launch World War I as well as the Communist and Nazi tyrannies. In addition, the Federal Reserve system has allowed these financiers to control the money supply and thus put their candidates into office through manipulation of the money supply. Finally, Mullins maintains that key players in the Reagan administration were involved in the Federal Reserve. This book traces the lineage of these elite bankers back to a secret "London Connection", showing how Britain has regained financial control over the United States colonies even after their declaration of independence from her. Finally, this book traces the blood relationships between the elite banking families (complete with charts illustrating the family lineage) back to the Rothschilds of Old Europe and other banking families. Our founding fathers, including especially Presidents Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson opposed the creation of a centralized banking system, which was supported by Alexander Hamilton as a vehicle of the Rothschilds. However, that heritage was soon lost with the creation of the Federal Reserve banking system at Jekyll Island. As such, the American people became easy prey to the manipulations of the elite and powerful who continue to control their activities through economic control, mass warfare, and psychological warfare, developed later.

This book opens with the scene at Jekyll Island on November 22, 1910. There an elite group of bankers as part of the Jekyll Island Club met in secret to plot against the people of the United States and to create the Federal Reserve Banking system. Individuals present at this meeting included Senator Nelson Aldrich, his private secretary Shelton, A. Piatt Andrew, Frank Vanderlip, Henry P. Davison, Charles D. Norton, J. P. Morgan, and Paul Warburg. The book then turns to the Aldrich Plan sponsored as a propaganda campaign by the participants at the Jekyll Island meeting. In particular the Aldrich Plan was opposed by two populist heroes, Senator LaFollette and Congressman Lindbergh. Mullins delves into how the unconstitutional Federal Reserve Act was passed (though with opposition to the "money trust" coming from populist opponents such as Lindbergh) and the strange relationships between President Woodrow Wilson and Col. Edward M. House (author of the pro-communist tract _Philip Dru, Administrator_ which argued for a complete dictatorship by the elite) as chronicled by the German-American Viereck. Mullins also goes into details relating the Federal Reserve Bank to the Rothschild dynasty. The ultra-rich Rothschilds notoriously controlled the banking interests of Old Europe and were well known for profiting off the blood of nations through wars. Indeed, an interesting story relating to the Rothschilds appeared in the book _The Romance of the Rothschilds_ by Ignatius Balla. Apparently, the London Rothschild went to Waterloo where the fate of Europe hung in the balance and saw that Napoleon was losing the battle. He managed to get back to England by sailing through a dangerous storm that night. Later, he appeared at the stock market and sold his securities, only to have secret agents buy them back at lower rates once people decided that Rothschild must be right for bailing on them. This allowed Rothschild to profit enormously from the Battle of Waterloo at the expense of the people. Mullins traces the Federal Reserve bankers back to Old Europe through a "London Connection". Indeed, all the primary movers and shakers behind the Federal Reserve have this "London Connection". In this way, the Rothschilds and the old wealth of Europe have maintained their control over the United States and indeed the world. Mullins also finds a "Hitler Connection", showing in effect how the bankers helped put Hitler into power so as to cause the Second World War and to profit from it. Regarding World War I, Mullins has much to say about the manipulations of Wilson and his cronies. Even though a vast majority of Americans were Germans, the United States entered this war against Germany (in spite of Wilson's claim that "he kept us out of war"). Mullins also shows how the bankers manipulated the Agricultural Depression of 1920 - 21, showing how the interests of the farmers and small businessmen were not recognized while the bankers continued to benefit. Further, Mullins shows how the bankers manipulated the Great Depression against the American people. Mullins then turns to the 1930s, noting the further manipulations of the bankers throughout this period. And, following this, Mullins turns to the 1970s and 80s noting the role of the bankers behind the Carter and Reagan administrations. Mullins notes the role of such organizations as the Council of Foreign Relations, the Trilateral Commission, and the Bilderbergers in manipulating world events. In particular, the Rothschild-Rockefeller alliance appears to be a strong influence behind world control. Mullins also mentions such things as psychological warfare, the Tavistock Institute, and the role of drugs and the hippie generation in the schemes of the elite. This book also includes detailed charts showing the components of the Federal Reserve Banking system and tracing the bloodlines of the elite bankers who manipulate the system from behind the scenes.

This book provides an excellent expose of the Federal Reserve and specifically shows the way that it allows for the bankers and elite to control the American people. Further, by manipulating the money supply, the elite can create conflict and this leads to war. The role of the elite behind the Federal Reserve is seen for what it truly is, a great threat to the people of the United States and the world.
