The Tyranny of the Bank of France

Dell, Robert | July 10, 1935 issue

add to cart   close window

The recent financial and political crisis in France has ended in the capitulation of Parliament to the financial and industrial interests that engineered the crisis, but the victory of those interests is less complete than on similar occasions in the past, and there are encouraging symptoms of an awakening to the necessity of getting rid of their domination. The sinister part played by the Bank of France, in particular, has been so evident that the revolt against the tyranny of the bank is rapidly spreading, and in normal circumstances one of the issues at the general election next year will be whether the Bank of France is to be the master or the servant of the state.
