A long critique argues that monetary reform and anti–money power are needed to break the creditor corner on gold and silver. It urges remonetizing silver, postal banking, direct money to the people, and farmer and worker combines to set prices. Emphasizes nonpartisan leagues and a united front against combines controlling currency and wages.
