Perhaps a shorthand device for stating the point would be to say that we must find a common pattern with Nehru, before we can even think of trying to find a common pattern with Stalin. Have you seen any indication in the last 30 years that the nations have changed their approach on that? Fear-inspired negative action makes poor cement for unity. We must be prepared to accept some sort of a composite pattern, in which we may preserve for ourselves the things we cherish, but in which others may be equally free to do the same. We talked about government under law with respect to A-bombs, but went on talking about international anarchy with respect to TNT-bombs. 1.8M subscribers in the conspiracy community. 2023 The Christian Broadcasting Network, Inc., A nonprofit 501 (c)(3) Charitable Organization.

The world's two superpowersRussia and the United Statesare entangled in the vicious circle of an arms race, which more and more preempts energies and resources sorely needed to lay the foundations of enduring peace. I don't think one needs to answer that question at the present time, sir. While it may seem that the idea for a one-world government goes hand-in-hand with the rise of universal connectivity through social media, the push for a global governing system has been growing for years. It states the objective in unequivocal terms. A regime which maintains itself at home by the use of force cannot readily renounce force as an instrument of foreign policy. The second half of the answer seems to me open to question. That is a very dangerous condition for us to get into. I think the first problem we should meet is in ourselves. Senator WILEY. The only question is whether world government will be achieved by conquest or consent." He was also a trustee of the Institute of Economics, founded in 1922; when it was merged into the Brookings Institution in 1927, he became a trustee of the latter, serving until his death.

Mr. WARBURG. To a very great extent, I believe this hypothesis to be an illusion, especially in the initial stages of the program. No one knows what the next war would cost. Senator SMITH of New Jersey. Mr. WARBURG. For what, pray, is any attempt to control so-called conventional armaments by treaty between sovereign nation states, other than leaving the use of such armaments to the discretion of the individual governments? Prior to his term as vice chairman, Warburg was appointed a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors in 1914. Let us, then, present, the Kremlin with a fact far more powerful than our decision to develop and manufacture ever more horrible weapons of destruction. That is one of the difficulties we have. The creation of the other lies in your hands today. There is a fourth contribution implicit in the Senator's proposal. Were happy to make this story available to republish for free, unless it originated with JTA, Haaretz or another publication (as indicated on the article) and as long as you follow our guidelines.

Warburg, he barked, where is your paper?. Dr. Michael Youssef was born in Egypt and lived in Lebanon and Australia before coming to the United States and fulfilling a childhood dream of becoming an American citizen. Sir John Boyd Orr, a Scottish doctor and politician, received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1949 for his research into improving global food production. Secretary Acheson said the other day that the only agreements which can usefully be made with the Kremlin are those which rest upon established fact. Therefore, whatever we do in Asia must, we think, be done without spending any substantial funds from our Treasury. Mr. WARBURG. Mr. Hickerson of the Department of State listed them most carefully. Furthermore, it seems reasonably certain that, with or without the over-all McMahon plan, we shall have to spend considerable sums in Asia and the Middle East during the next 5 years if we intend to hold our own in a continuing cold war. Mr. WARBURG. In 1907, just as Warburg had predicted, a panic virtually shut down the banking system. I think that is a cooperative matter that calls for cooperative effort. You can help bring hope today! I think that is all this resolution commits us to, to search for a mechanism to create the rule of law. During the pandemic, we saw how easily global governance organizations like the World Health Organization can be bent to the will of a coercive power like Communist China. His father was banker Paul Warburg, member of the Warburg family and "father" of the Federal Reserve system. Freed from its self-defeating proviso, Senator McMahon's proposal can become a mighty weapon for peace. It never occurred to us that the principle, which we recognized as valid with respect to atomic weapons, was equally valid with regard to all weapons. In 2011, the Vatican cardinals issued a document calling for a world Authority (with a capital A) to impose controls on the global economy. In the long run, however, even such a regime can be brought to realizeby demonstration of factthat those peoples, who devote their energies to peaceful cooperation, will outstrip the peoples whose governments pursue only the sterile aim of widening the orbit of their own arbitrary power. If your question means, do I believe that we can make a treaty with the Russians, I will say precisely the opposite. The ultimate goal of this invisible government is to transform the United States into a Socialist state and then to merge the nation into a one-world government socialist system. More recently, Lord Christopher Monckton, who was science adviser to British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, reported on the goals for the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen: A world government is going to be created. These are three major contributions to the making of an American policy that might lead to enduring peace. One of these facts, which your colleague specifically proposed to create, would, in my judgment, be far more powerful than our recent decisions to develop and manufacture hydrogen bombs. Assume that we are successful in getting this resolution through. The cartoon character, Oliver "Daddy" Warbucks in the Little Orphan Annie series, was purportedly inspired by Warburg's life and times. We have to find the mechanism which will enable us to substitute the rule of law for the rule of anarchy in the world. What we need to do is to outlaw war itself. Though his status as a foreigner, and a Jew, made him suspect in the eyes of many of his peers, Warburgs brilliance gradually won him acceptance. I am aware, Mr. Chairman, of the exigencies of your crowded schedule and of the need to be brief, so as not to transgress upon your courtesy in granting me a hearing. I am talking about whether or not the question of the validity of a treaty is just as strong as the intent of the parties to maintain it and keep it. I would find it difficult to imagine any practical plan which did not involve some form of world government.

Senator SMITH of New Jersey. In his Nobel acceptance speech, he said, We are now physically, politically, and economically one world The absolute national sovereignty of nations is no longer possible. Your point of view is very valuable. Warburg once wrote, in despair of ever launching a central bank, that an abhorrence of both extremes that is, of Washington and of Wall Street had led to an almost fanatic conviction in favor of extreme decentralization. The only reason I am interjecting this angle is because, as you have heard today, two Congressmen have intimated that the passage of one of these resolutions would be unconstitutional. If these existing programs were integrated, as proposed, in the new over-all plan, we should be adding only six billions to our annual expenditure. The oppressive reign of the Antichrist is the goal toward which the globalists are working whether they know it or not. Conflict in the minds of men has been generated through centuries of hate and competition between people for material wealth and political domination. I am not assuming that this world federation is a device for extending our own power. Moreover, even if the Russians were to accept a modified Baruch plan, this would not suffice, because, at best, such a plan would outlaw only one type of weapon and one method of waging war. The real difficulty lies elsewhere. I couldn't support that because it doesn't seem to go to the root of the matter, which is simply that the United Nations in its present form is a league of sovereign states, and the root of the evil is that it is not a league of sovereign people. Roger Lowenstein is the author of Americas Bank: The Epic Struggle To Create the Federal Reserve (Penguin, 2015). Why not, then, combine two bravely taken positions of wise statesmanship into one?

(February 17, 1950, as he testified before the US Senate)."- Paul Warburg before the Senate. This criticism seems to me wide of the mark. Senator SMITH of New Jersey.

[1][3], Although a major factor in German finance, after frequent business trips to New York Warburg settled there in 1902 as a partner in Kuhn, Loeb & Co., where the influential Jacob Schiff was senior partner. I think the political line is that we must declare our intention to do the one thing that can preserve the peace in the world, and oddly enough, the United States and the Soviet Union are the only two great powers that are on record as opposing the transformation of the United Nations, That is the only thing we agree with Uncle Joe on. Anger at banks? His efforts were successful in 1913 with the founding of the Federal Reserve System. We have been operating, in our foreign-aid programs, almost wholly outside the United Nations. Russell Leffingwell, who served variously as the Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, head of the Council on Foreign Relations, and chairman of J.P. Morgan,[5] credited Warburg with doing "yeoman's service in preaching the doctrines and practices of modern [central] European banking" while all other "friends of sound money" were so occupied with battling against the free silver movement that they gave scant thought to the need for currency reform. Because we have committed so large a part of our resources to military preparations and to European aid, we have arrived at the crisis in Asia feeling impoverished. God is everywhereeven in the news.

Now there is one difficulty that has been raised in these hearings, in regard to a particular resolution, and that is to the use of the word federation, and that is on the theory that it prejudges the kind of world set-up to exist. Similarly, were the Fed inflicting hardship on Americans with onerous interest rates, the anger would be comprehensible.

It would, on the contrary, create the only conditions in which private capital might be willing and able to make an important contribution. Mr. Chairman, Senate Resolution 56 merely expresses the sense of the Congress. Mr. WARBURG. Warburg became a U.S. citizen, and played a major behind-the-scenes role in drafting legislation. President Andrew Jackson, who abolished the Second Bank, personified the mistrust, common among rural Americans, of government banks. I don't know the Ferguson Resolution. He resigned in September 1914 following his appointment to the Federal Reserve Board, and Jacob Schiff was elected to his seat on the Wells Fargo board. Let us present the Kremlin With the fact that the United States is determined, in spite of its military burdens, to commit an act of faith-to dedicate its great strength to constructive cooperation with all the world's peoples in a world-wide crusade against hunger, poverty disease, and ignorance. "The New York bankers got all they wanted", Wicker argues, "with the single exception of banker control. REVISION OF THE UNITED NATIONS CHARTER Senator SMITH of New Jersey. The whole plan rests upon the assumption that the United States can save $10,000,000,000 a year (two-thirds of its present military budget). Senator WILEY.

His father was banker Paul Warburg, member of the Warburg family and "father" of the Federal Reserve system. Senator WILEY. One of the things I think we have been doing too much, is that we have stopped ourselves from getting started in the right direction because we then say, conveniently, Oh, well, the other fellow won't do it anyway, so what's the use.. This work is in the public domain in the United States because it is a work of the United States federal government (see 17U.S.C. Under it, all nations, including the Soviet Union, would be eligible for assistance. Mr. WARBURG. It recognizes that there is no cure for this evil short of making the United Nations into a universal organization capable of enacting, interpreting, and enforcing world law to the degree necessary to outlaw force, or the threat of force, as an instrument of foreign policy. Obviously, the proposed alternative conditionagreement to outlaw all weapons and war itselfis one which we cannot impose until we ourselves have accepted it. He put forward a constructive proposal for an affirmative approach to peace. To begin with, we should not be talking about a 'net increase of $10,000,000,000, a year in our expenditure. Unless you cure that, I don't think you can attack the root of the evil. Peace is a question of conflict within the minds of men, and between nations. I am assuming that a government will be run as our own Government is run, by the development of a fair process of . The obvious answer is that we cannot afford to cut our military expenditures by $10,000,000,000 a year unless there is an effective agreement to disarm; and that, unless we can save the $10,000,000,000 out of our military budget, we cannot afford to spend them on economic reconstruction. In 1950, James Paul Warburg, chairman of the Council of Foreign Relations, told a subcommittee of the United States Senate, "We shall have world government, whether or not we like it. The trouble with the Baruch plan-even if brought up to date-is that it deals only with one type of weapon. What Does "One World Government" Mean? Until we have established this goal, we shall continue to befog and befuddle our own vision by clinging to the illusion that the present structure of the United Nations would work, if only the Russians would let it work. Really. I am interested, vitally interested, because I think that is the crux of the thing-how are we going to win the battles of the mind? If any resolution is passed, all it does is to suggest to the President who, under the Constitution, has responsibility for our foreign relations, that we want him to keep on exploring to see if we can do something to antidote the Russian influence.

Warburg quickly concluded that the fault lay in Americas lack of a central bank. In an interview with Sddeutsche Zeitung, Germanys Munich-based national daily newspaper, Gates said: We have global problems and urgent needs. It is, therefore, fair to say that the adoption of the McMahon plan without any conditions whatever would probably not add more than four or five billion dollars a year to our expenditures. The OwenGlass Bill did. We have been so naive in our world dealings, as you know, with the Soviet Union particularly and with others, and my whole thought in questioning you is to see or make sure that the thing we want, in other words, people sitting down, nations sitting down together, keeping faith with one another, things that we want to be--that our wishes do not lead us up other blind alleys that we would regret.
