So far as financiers are concerned the Rothschilds and the French government are as one, writes the “Sunday Referee” in a full front page article entitled “The Triumph of the Rothschilds.” After revealing that in financial matters there are now considerable differences between the English and French members of the famous Jewish banking house, the “Referee” says that the Rothschilds “who up to the present have been controlling French finances, are advising the French government not to finance foreign loans but to concentrate instead on an increase in the French supply of gold which is causing considerable annoyance to other international financiers.”
The “Referee” approves of the policy which the Rothschilds advise for France as protection for the interests of small French investors and cites as a similar example Paul Warburg, prominent American financier and brother of Felix M. Warburg, who warned the American public before the Wall Street debacle of last October against financial trusts which he said were merely stock pools.
Should world credit collapse the Rothschilds and France alone will escape unscathed as a result of the Rothschilds’ policy, the “Referee” concludes.
