Reserve Agents, jointly and severally, with violations of the Constitution and laws of the

Treasury which were not appropriated by the Congress of the United States, and I charge
them with having unlawfully taken over $80,000,000,000 from the U.S. Government in the
year 1928, the said unlawful taking consisting of the unlawful creation of claims against
the U.S. Treasury to the extent of over $80,000,000,000 in the year 1928; and I charge
them with similar thefts committed in 1929, 1930, 1931, 1932 and 1933, and in years
previous to 1928, amounting to billions of dollars; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally with having unlawfully created claims against the U.S.
Treasury by unlawfully placing U.S. Government credit in specific amounts to the credit of
foreign governments and foreign central banks of issue; private interests and commercial
and private banks of the U.S. and foreign countries, and branches of foreign banks doing
business in the U.S., to the extent of billions of dollars; and with having made unlawful
contracts in the name of the U.S. Government and the U.S. Treasury; and with having made
false entries on books of account; and
"Whereas I
charge them jointly and severally, with having taken Fed Notes from the U.S. Treasury and
with having put Fed Notes into circulation without obeying the mandatory provision of the
Fed Act which requires the Fed Board to fix an interest rate on all issues of Fed Notes
supplied to Fed Banks, the interest resulting therefrom to be paid by the Fed Banks to the
government of the U.S. for the use of the Fed Notes, and I charge them of having defrauded
the U.S. Government and the people of the U.S. of billions of dollars by the commission of
this crime, and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having purchased U.S. Government securities with
U.S. Government credit unlawfully taken and with having sold the said U.S. Government
securities back to the people of the U.S. for gold or gold values and with having again
purchased U.S. Government securities with U.S. Government credit unlawfully taken and with
having again sold the said U.S. Government security for gold or gold values, and I charge
them with having defrauded the U.S. Government and the people of the U.S. by this rotary
process; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having unlawfully negotiated U.S. Government
securities, upon which the Government liability was extinguished, as collateral security
for Fed Notes and with having substituted such securities for gold which was being held as
collateral security for Fed Notes, and with having by the process defrauded the U.S.
Government and the people of the U.S., and I charge them with the theft of all the gold
and currency they obtained by this process; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having unlawfully issued Fed currency on false,
worthless and fictitious acceptances and other circulating evidence of debt, and with
having made unlawful advances of Fed currency, and with having unlawfully permitted
renewals of acceptances and renewals of other circulating evidences of debt, and with
having permitted acceptance bankers and discount dealer corporations and other private
bankers to violate the banking laws of the U.S.; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having conspired to have evidences of debt to the
extent of $1,000,000,000 artificially created at the end of February, 1933, and early in
March 1933, and with having made unlawful issues and advances of Fed currency on the
security of said artificially created evidences of debt for a sinister purpose, and with
having assisted in the execution of said sinister purpose; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having brought about the repudiation of the
currency obligations of the Fed Banks to the people of the U.S. and with having conspired
to obtain a release for the Fed Board and the Fed Banks from their contractual liability
to redeem all Fed currency in gold or lawful money at the Fed Bank and with having
defrauded the holders of Fed currency, and with having conspired to have the debts and
losses of the Fed Board and the Fed Banks unlawfully transferred to the Government and the
people of the U.S., and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having unlawfully substituted Fed currency and
other irredeemable paper currency for gold in the hands of the people after the decision
to repudiate the Fed currency and the national currency was made known to them, and with
thus having obtained money under false pretenses; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having brought about a repudiation of the notes
of the U.S. in order that the gold value of the said currency might be given to private
interests, foreign governments, foreign central banks of issues, and the Bank of
International Settlements, and the people of the U.S. to be left without gold or lawful
money and with no currency other that a paper currency irredeemable in gold, and I charge
them with having done this for the benefit of private interests, foreign governments,
foreign central banks of issue, and the bank of International Settlements; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with conniving with the Edge Law banks, and other Edge
Law institutions, accepting banks, and discount corporations, foreign central banks of
issue, foreign commercial banks, foreign corporations, and foreign individuals with funds
unlawfully taken from the U.S. Treasury; and I charge them with having unlawfully
permitted and made possible 'new financing' for foreigners at the expense of the U.S.
Treasury to the extent of billions of dollars and with having unlawfully permitted and
made possible the bringing into the United States of immense quantities of foreign
securities, created in foreign countries for export to the U.S. and with having unlawfully
permitted the said foreign securities to be imported into the U.S. instead of gold, which
was lawfully due to the U.S. on trade balances and otherwise, and with having lawfully
permitted and facilitated the sale of the said foreign securities in the U.S., and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having unlawfully exported U.S. coins and
currency for a sinister purpose, and with having deprived the people of the U.S. of their
lawful medium of exchange, and I charge them with having arbitrarily and unlawfully
reduced the amount of money and currency in circulation in the U.S. to the lowest rate per
capita in the history of the Government, so that the great mass of the people have been
left without a sufficient medium of exchange, and I charge them with concealment and
evasion in refusing to make known the amount of U.S. money in coins and paper currency
exported and the amount remaining in the U.S. as a result of which refusal the Congress of
the U.S. is unable to ascertain where the U.S. coins and issues of currency are at the
present time, and what amount of U.S. currency is now held abroad; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having arbitrarily and unlawfully raised and
lowered the rates of money and with having arbitrarily increased and diminished the volume
of currency in circulation for the benefit of private interests at the expense of the
Government and the people of the U.S. and with having unlawfully manipulated money rates,
wages, salaries and property values both real and personal, in the U.S. by unlawful
operations in the open discount market and by resale and repurchase agreements
unsanctioned by law, and
"Whereas I
charge them jointly and severally, with having brought about the decline in prices on the
New York Stock Exchange and other exchanges in October, 1929, by unlawful manipulation of
money rates and the volume of U.S. money and currency in circulation: by theft of funds
from the U.S. Treasury by gambling in acceptances and U.S. Government securities; by
service rendered to foreign and domestic speculators and politicians, and by unlawful sale
of U.S. gold reserves abroad, and
"Whereas the unconstitutional inflation law imbedded in the so-called Farm Relief Act
by which the Fed Banks are given permission to buy U.S. Government securities to the
extent of $3,000,000,000 and to drew forth currency from the people's Treasury to the
extent of $3,000,000,000 is likely to result in connivance on the part of said accused
with others in the purchase by the Fed of the U.S. Government securities to the extent of
$3,000,000,000 with U.S. Government's own credit unlawfully taken, it being obvious that
the Fed do no not intend to pay anything of value to the U.S. Government for the said U.S.
Government securities no provision for payment in gold or lawful money appearing in the
so-called Farm Relief bill- and the U.S. Government will thus be placed in a position of
conferring a gift of $3,000,000,000 in the U.S. Government securities on the Fed to enable
them to pay more on their bad debts to foreign governments, foreign central banks of
issue, private interests, and private and commercial banks, both foreign and domestic, and
the Bank of International Settlements, and
"Whereas the
U.S. Government will thus go into debt to the extent of $3,000,000,000 and will then have
an additional claim of $3,000,000,000 in currency unlawfully created against it and
whereas no private interest should be permitted to buy U.S. Government securities with the
Government's own credit unlawfully taken and whereas currency should not be issued for the
benefit of said private interest or any interests on U.S. Government securities so
acquired, and whereas it has been publicly stated and not denied that the inflation
amendment of the Farm Relief Act is the matter of benefit which was secured by Ramsey
MacDonald, the Prime Minister of Great Britain, upon the occasion of his latest visit to
the U.S. Treasury, and whereas there is grave danger that the accused will employ the
provision creating U.S. Government securities to the extent of $3,000,000,000 and three
millions in currency to be issuable thereupon for the benefit of themselves and their
foreign principals, and that they will convert the currency so obtained to the uses of
Great Britain by secret arrangements with the Bank of England of which they are the
agents, and for which they maintain an account and perform services at the expense of the
U.S. Treasury, and that they will likewise confer benefits upon the Bank of International
Settlements for which they maintain an account and perform services at the expense of the
U.S. Treasury; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having concealed the insolvency of the Fed and
with having failed to report the insolvency of the Fed to the Congress and with having
conspired to have the said insolvent institutions continue in operation, and with having
permitted the said insolvent institutions to receive U.S. Government funds and other
deposits, and with having permitted them to exercise control over the gold reserves of the
U.S. and with having permitted them to transfer upward of $100,000,000,000 of their debts
and losses to the general public and the Government of the U.S., and with having permitted
foreign debts of the Fed to be paid with the property, the savings, the wages, and the
salaries of the people of the U.S. and with the farms and the homes of the American
people, and whereas I charge them with forcing the bad debts of the Fed upon the general
public covertly and dishonestly and and with taking the general wealth and savings of the
people of the U.S. under false pretenses, to pay the debts of the Fed to foreigners; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with violations of the Fed Act and other laws; with
maladministration of the h evasions of the Fed Law and other laws; and with having
unlawfully failed to report violations of law on the part of the Fed Banks which, if
known, would have caused the Fed Banks to lose their charters, and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with failure to protect and maintain the gold reserves
and the gold stock and gold coinage of the U.S. and with having sold the gold reserves of
the U.S to foreign Governments, foreign central banks of issue, foreign commercial and
private banks, and other foreign institutions and individuals at a profit to themselves,
and I charge them with having sold gold reserves of the U.S. so that between 1924 and 1928
the U.S. gained no gold on net account but suffered a decline in its percentage of central
gold reserves from the 45.9 percent in 1924 to 37.5 percent in 1928 notwithstanding the
fact that the U.S. had a favorable balance of trade throughout that period, and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having conspired to concentrate U.S. Government
securities and thus the national debt of the U.S. in the hands of foreigners and
international money lenders and with having conspired to transfer to foreigners and
international money lenders title to and control of the financial resources of the U.S.;
and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having fictitiously paid installments on the
national debt with Government credit unlawfully taken; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with the loss of the U.S. Government funds entrusted
to their care; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having destroyed independent banks in the U.S.
and with having thereby caused losses amounting to billions of dollars to the said banks,
and to the general public of the U.S., and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with the failure to furnish true reports of the
business operations and the true conditions of the Fed to the Congress and the people, and
having furnished false and misleading reports to the congress of the U.S., and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having published false and misleading propaganda
intended to deceive the American people and to cause the U.S. to lose its independence;
and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with unlawfully allowing Great Britain to share in the
profits of the Fed at the expense of the Government and the people of the U.S.; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having entered into secret agreements and illegal
transactions with Montague Norman, Governor of the Bank of England; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with swindling the U.S. Treasury and the people of the
U.S. in pretending to have received payment from Great Britain of the amount due on the
British ware debt to the U.S. in December, 1932; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having conspired with their foreign principals
and others to defraud the U.S. Government and to prevent the people of the U.S. from
receiving payment of the war debts due to the U.S. from foreign nations; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, with having robbed the U.S Government and the people
of the U.S. by their theft and sale of the gold reserves of the U.S. and other unlawful
transactions created a deficit in the U.S. Treasury, which has necessitated to a large
extent the destruction of our national defense and the reduction of the U.S. Army and the
U.S. Navy and other branches of the national defense; and
"Whereas I
charge them, jointly and severally, of having reduced the U.S. from a first class power to

acted against the peace and security of the U.S. and with having treasonable conspired to
destroy constitutional Government in the U.S.
