Three years later, in 1871, Drexel entered into a new partnership, forming Drexel, Morgan & Co. with J. Pierpont Morgan.[3] The new merchant banking partnership, which was based in New York, rather than Philadelphia, served initially as an agent for Europeans investing in the United States. With the formation of Drexel, Morgan & Co., Drexel Harjes became the French affiliate of an international banking firm with offices in London, Philadelphia, New York City and Paris that would subsequently become J.P.

Silver Vigilantes Vs Oligarchy (JP Morgan)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPRAet-1lUw
Excerpt:
Silver Vigilantes (represented by Robert Cummings) and JP Morgan (represented by Otto Kruger). The reference to "the girl" should be interpreted - in this segment at least - as being "silver" (hence Liberty at the beginning!).
Taken from Hitchcock's classic The Saboteur (1942). This particular dialogue has an interesting blend of post-fascist and pre-fascist ideological baggage in it. Made during the second world war, it subtly makes the point that the emergence of fascism is not isolated to Europe, but that tis is a force embedded deep into the American psyche. Hitchcock sets up the argument in terms of The American People Vs the Corporations. Globalists take note - the mind of the oligarch is a blight on every "advanced" nation.

Excerpt:
Walter Thatcher
Walter Parks Thatcher (George Coulouris) is a banker described by the opening newsreel as a "grand old man of Wall Street". He became Kane's legal guardian in 1871, but Kane resented him and used the Inquirer to harass him. In a scene in the newsreel set around 1925, Thatcher tells a congressional investigation that Kane is a Communist. When Thatcher asks Kane what he would have liked to have been, Kane replies "everything you hate". Clearly getting on in years during Kane's youth, Thatcher was still alive in 1929 and was dead by 1941.

Charles Lindbergh (January 20, 1859 – May 24, 1924), the father of the famous aviator, was a member of the House of Representatives from Minnesota and the radical leader of the progressive Republicans within Congress. It was Lindbergh that began to stir up the “hue and cry” of the Money Trust Hunt in December of 1911, leading to the Pujo Committee investigation. As a vocal opponent of financial barons and money trusts, he wrote Banking and Currency and the Money Trust in 1913.

The investigation: 1932 - 1934
Kidnapping Poster |
On March 2, 1932, after a conference with the Attorney General, J. Edgar Hoover, Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) (or Bureau of Investigation, as it was called at that time), had contacted the headquarters of the New Jersey State Police at Trenton, New Jersey. He officially informed the organization that the U.S. Department of Justice would afford Colonel H. Norman Schwarzkopf, the Superintendent of the New Jersey State Police, the assistance and cooperation of the FBI in bringing about the apprehension of the parties responsible for the kidnapping. He advised the New Jersey State Police that they could call upon the Bureau for any facilities or resources which the latter might be capable of extending. The Special Agent in Charge (SAC) of the New York City Office of the Bureau, which at that time covered the New Jersey district, was instructed accordingly and, upon instructions from the Director, the SAC communicated with the New Jersey State Police and the New York City Police, offering any assistance which the Bureau might be able to lend in this matter.

…the day stays grey and lonely for Little Orphan Annie and Sandy gets sent to the pound and eternal sleep!
After a dispute with Michael Gelman, the producer of “Live With Regis & Kathie Lee,” Gifford once again became the center of controversy in 1996 when the National Labor Committee informed the media that child laborers in Honduras were producing the Kathie Lee Gifford collection clothing line for Wal-Mart. She strongly denied the report and soon ventured into a mission to support stronger laws against factory labor. To further defend herself, she even guaranteed the public that she benefited all of the income from her clothing line for Cassidy’s Place, a home she established for AIDS and crack babies.
A year later, Gifford found herself suffering through personal trauma and public embarrassment after The Globe tabloid published photographs of her husband, Frank Gifford, with Trans World Airlines flight attendant Suzen Johnson in a New York City hotel room. It was later discovered that Johnson received $75,000 from The Globe to seduce Frank Gifford. After the event, Kathie was appointed a spokesperson for the Home Furnishings Council, Carnival Cruise Lines, Ultra Slim-Fast, and Revlon. She also produced her own fitness video, “Kathie Lee's Feel Fit and Fabulous Workout,” penned a bestselling autobiography called “I Can't Believe I Said That” as well as managed two charity organizations. She also continued to produce albums and sing at venues throughout the country.

Kathie Lee, Disney, and the Sweatshop Uproar
by Norman Solomon
In private, Disney executives worry that news media might get around to widening the story | Controversy about Kathie Lee Gifford's clothing line has thrown harsh light on a TV star accused of profiting from labor at sweatshops. While Gifford takes the heat, the conglomerate that owns her show -- the Walt Disney Co. appears cool and above the fray. But that's not fair. Disquieting facts about Gifford's commercial ventures have surfaced in recent weeks. Some of the clothes with her name on the label came from a Honduran factory with girls as young as 12 working in abysmal conditions. Other Kathie Lee garments hail from a Manhattan sweatshop where even the paltry wages for adults went unpaid. These revelations are painful for Gifford, who co-hosts the hugely successful "Live With Regis & Kathie Lee" program. Meanwhile, in private, Disney executives worry that news media might get around to widening the story. Their nightmare echoes the famous Mouseketeer tune ("Who's the leader of the club...")with a present-day version: "Who's the firm with sweatshops that make clothes for you and me? D-I-S...N-E-Y..." |
---|---|
The suffering of sweatshop employees got short shrift | In Haiti, poor women produce Disney clothing such as Pocahontas T-shirts and Lion King outfits for kids. Charles Kernaghan the labor-rights activist whose congressional testimony blew the whistle on the Honduras factory says that Disney relies on exploited Haitian labor. |

If you want a clear understanding of the kinds of “jobs” that Bill Clinton helped bring to the people of Haiti back in his days in the White House, it’s not hard to find… the following is from 1996 when Slick Willy was in office.Take, for example, the Pocahantas pajamas you see at Wal-Mart for $11.97. They are made by workers at L.V. Miles, an assembly plant in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti. L.V. Miles, under contract to the Walt Disney Company, pays each worker about $3.33 a day.Yes, greed is good for people like Eisner
In one day, then, 20 workers earn $66.60, and together they produce 1,000 pairs of pajamas. That is $11,970 worth of pajamas for $66.60. Less than seven cents per pair goes to pay the workers who produced it. And the remaining $11.90? Disney CEO Michael Eisner was paid $203 million in salary and stock options in 1993.
A recent report,The U.S. in Haiti: How to Get Rich on 11 cents an Hour,says,If a Haitian minimum wage worker worked full-time, six days a week, sewing clothes for Disney, it would take her approximately 1,040 years to earn what Michael Eisner earned on one day in 1993,and notes that although L.V. Miles pays the minimum wage, it further subcontracts work to shops that pay even less. Julia Lutsky

1900 to 1950
In 1900, Nikola Tesla claimed to have discovered an abstract principle on which to base a perpetual motion machine of the second kind. No prototype was produced. He wrote:
“ | A departure from known methods – possibility of a "self-acting" engine or machine, inanimate, yet capable, like a living being, of deriving energy from the medium – the ideal way of obtaining motive power |

Here is the story : In 1930, Nikola Tesla asked his nephew, Petar Savo, who was born in Yugoslavia in 1899, to come to New York. Petar was 43 years younger than his uncle. Up to that date he had lived under stringent conditions in Yugoslavia, Tesla's country of birth. During the summer of 1931, Tesla took his nephew to Buffalo to unveil and test a new automobile. Tesla had developed it with his own personal funds.

Excerpt:
Unified field theory
Main article: Classical unified field theories
Following his research on general relativity, Einstein entered into a series of attempts to generalize his geometric theory of gravitation to include electromagnetism as another aspect of a single entity. In 1950, he described his "unified field theory" in a Scientific American article entitled "On the Generalized Theory of Gravitation".[82] Although he continued to be lauded for his work, Einstein became increasingly isolated in his research, and his efforts were ultimately unsuccessful. In his pursuit of a unification of the fundamental forces, Einstein ignored some mainstream developments in physics, most notably the strong and weak nuclear forces, which were not well understood until many years after his death. Mainstream physics, in turn, largely ignored Einstein's approaches to unification. Einstein's dream of unifying other laws of physics with gravity motivates modern quests for a theory of everything and in particular string theory, where geometrical fields emerge in a unified quantum-mechanical setting.

Excerpt:
Phossy jaw, formally phosphorus necrosis of the jaw, is an occupational disease of those who work with white phosphorus, also known as yellow phosphorus, without proper safeguards. It was most commonly seen in workers in the match industry in the 19th and early 20th century. Modern occupational hygiene practices have eliminated the working conditions which caused this disease.
However it was not until the use of white phosphorus was prohibited by the international Berne Convention in 1906, and these provisions were implemented in national laws over the next few years, that industrial use ceased.[5]
occupational disease
Excerpt:
An occupational disease is any chronic ailment that occurs as a result of work or occupational activity. It is an aspect of occupational safety and health. An occupational disease is typically identified when it is shown that it is more prevalent in a given body of workers than in the general population, or in other worker populations. Occupational hazards that are of a traumatic nature (such as falls by roofers) are not considered to be occupational diseases.
Under the law of workers' compensation in many jurisdictions, there is a presumption that specific disease are caused by the worker being in the work environment and the burden is on the employer or insurer to show that the disease came about from another cause. Diseases compensated by national workers compensation authorities are often termed occupational diseases. However many countries do not offer compensations for certain diseases like musculoskeletal disorders caused by work (e.g. in Norway).Therefore the term work-related diseases is utilized to describe diseases of occupational origin. This term however would then include both compensable and non-compensable diseases that have occupational origins.

It was most commonly seen in workers in the match industry in the 19th and early 20th century. Modern occupational hygiene practices have eliminated the working conditions which caused this disease.
[edit] Symptoms and treatment
Those with phossy jaw would begin suffering painful toothaches and swelling of the gums. Over time, the jaw bone would begin to abscess. Affected bones would glow a greenish-white colour in the dark.[1][2] It also caused serious brain damage. Surgical removal of the afflicted jaw bones could save the patient; otherwise, death from organ failure would follow. The disease was extremely painful and disfiguring to the patient, with dying bone tissue rotting away accompanied by a foul-smelling discharge.[edit] Match industry
White phosphorus was the active ingredient of most matches from the 1840s to the 1910s and exposure to the vapour from this caused a deposition of phosphorus in the jaw bones[3] of workers in the industry. Concern over phossy jaw contributed to the London matchgirls strike of 1888, and although this strike did not end the use of white phosphorus, William Booth and the Salvation Army opened a match-making factory in 1891 which used the much safer, though more expensive, red phosphorus.[4] The Salvation Army also campaigned with local retailers to get them to sell only red phosphorus matches.[4]However it was not until the use of white phosphorus was prohibited by the international Berne Convention in 1906, and these provisions were implemented in national laws over the next few years, that industrial use ceased.[5]
[edit] Links to bisphosphonates
A related condition, Bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw (BON), has been described as a side-effect of amino-bisphosphonates, a class of phosphorus-based drugs that inhibit bone resorption, and are used widely for treating osteoporosis, bone disease in cancer and some other conditions.[6] BON is primarily associated with the use of intravenous bisphosphonates in the treatment of cancer. The percentage incidence of BON from this use is approximately 1000 times higher than the incidence of BON caused by the use of oral bisphosphonatesoccupational disease

The fourth and final propaganda film Hitchcock worked on is “Watchtower Over Tomorrow,” released in 1945 and cowritten by Ben Hecht. Hitchcock is one of four directors to work on the 15-minute film, which spotlighted the Dumbarton Oaks conference that laid the groundwork for the United Nations. Whether this film still exists in any form is uncertain; I have not been able to find a trace of it beyond records at the Hitchcock wiki page or at IMDB.com.
