The fallacy of the charge of Jewish financial world domination was proven by statistics compiled by Dr. Hoffman Campe and published in the “Vossische Zeitung.”
“International capital is in Aryan hands and only a small and diminishing proportion is in Jewish hands,” Dr. Campe writes. “This applies not only in the case of industrial capital, which is almost entirely in the hands of non-Jews, but also in the case of bank capital, where the Jewish influence is much less than is popularly supposed. Among the six people with the largest incomes in America there is not a single Jew. Among the twelve men with the largest incomes in the United States, there is only one Jew, Otto Kahn, who has ninth place on the list. Among the twelve wealthiest men in the world there is not a single Jew.
“As for Germany, Dr. Rudolf Martin in his Millionaire’s Year Book,” stated that among the twelve richest people in Germany who had an income of over 15 million marks, there were only three Jews, two members of the Rothschild family and one member of the Speyer family. The richest Jew in Germany at that time was Baron Max von Goldschmidt Rothschild, who had 107 million marks and held fourth place in the list of the wealthiest people in Germany. Baroness Mathilde von Rothschild with 76 million marks had seventh place, and Councillor Edouard Veit von Speyer with 76 million marks had eighth place.
“Since then conditions have changed very much. While the fortunes of the Krupps and of other Aryan industrial magnates have multiplied many times over, the fortunes of the Rothschild family and of other Jewish families have been much reduced.” Dr. Campe writes. “That the heirs of Stinnes have lost the fortune which had accumulated does not alter the fact that the man who exploited Germany’s distress in the war and post-war period was an Aryan,” the writer concludes.
