fomented and instigated the Russian Revolution and they placed a large fund of American
dollars at Trotsky’s disposal in one of their branch banks in Sweden.”

Congressman Louis McFadden was an outspoken critic of the banking cartel, and the
Federal Reserve. He survived two assassination attempts, only to die in a third attempt
when he was poisoned at a banquet.

The American government at every turn has worked to establish and expand Communism
throughout the world. In 1919 the Japanese government sought America’s approval for
Japan to enter the war against the Bolsheviks (Communists) in Russia. President Woodrow
Wilson refused Japan’s request. Japan’s entry into war against the Bolsheviks would have
put enormous stress upon the Communists who were seeking to establish control of Russia.

Although many history books describe the Russian Revolution of 1917 as a popular uprising
of the lower classes against the monarchy, and it is understood that the majority of Russians
were in favor of the new Communist government. This is not true. In 1917 as an interim
government was in place, an election was held to see whether the Russian people would
choose Communism. Trotsky pushed for the election for he was confident that the
Bolsheviks would come out on top. Forty-two million votes were cast in Russia, and only
thirty percent went to the Bolsheviks. Seventy percent of the Russian people rejected the
new Communist party to be rulers of their nation. The Bolsheviks then pressed forth with
a war on their own people to stamp out all opposition. It would be a couple decades later
before their rule was solidified and uncontested.

American bankers and industrialists played a key part in establishing the Communist
government in Russia. In truth, Americans are more responsible for Communism in Russia
than the Russian people themselves. Yet Satan has deluded the masses to believe that
America has been antagonistic toward Communism from the beginning. The facts prove
otherwise.

The director of the Federal Reserve bank of New York, William B. Thompson, gave a
personal contribution of $1,000,000 to the Bolsheviks. Mr. Thompson was also a heavy
stockholder in the Chase National Bank, owned by the Rockefeller interests.

The Morgan and Rockefeller interests also contributed cash to the cause, as did Jacob
Schiff, the senior partner of Kuhn, Loeb and Co., who gave Lenin $20,000,000. Schiff was
a partner of Paul Warburg, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, and a participant of the
Jekyll Island, Georgia meetings that wrote the Federal Reserve bill that created America’s
central banking system.

The Bolsheviks brutally enforced their rule over the Russian people. In the Ukraine they
starved the population into submission. The Bolsheviks removed the farmers from their
fields and confiscated their crops. Millions of Russian peasants were starving across the
nation. The Bolsehviks themselves were endangered by their own policies.

This time it was Herbert Hoover who “saved Lenin’s dictatorship from popular revolt in
