He never gave money back to anybody...

But the city was big and it had many caravanserais, so three days he would stay in this caravanserai...

... and then he would move to another caravanserai. And all his money was deposited in different banks. He was so afraid that some bank may go bankrupt - it is better to keep the money in different places. I used to ask him, "What will you do with it? You don't have any wife." He never married for the simple reason that women are too much interested in spending money. That would be a trouble...

But I used to enquire about... I wanted to understand what...

And he is holding all his bank accounts in his hand."...

The State has borrowed money from these foreigners instead of collecting those pennies for its own needs...

But when we changed the system in order to transfer loans into the external sphere, all the wealth of States flowed into our cash-boxes and the Goyim became our subjects. 33. If counties have accumulated enormous debts that are...

In order that these are within reach of everyone's investment capacity, the price of these bills will be kept low, and a discount...

And in this lies the whole stage effect...

But fortunately for the Goy...

[Now what means]: 'also in the first [Mishnah]'? [Assuredly it must mean]. although one could say43  'leave the money in the possession of its [present] owner.'

V. Rashi.] In the case of the money claim, what miggo is there which we could apply to the claimant? Therefore, we say, 'leave the money in the possession of its (present) owner.' The...

Therefore she was, at the time of her betrothal, in the presumptive state of a virgin. There is no presumption in favour of the claimant. The presumption is in favour of the person from whom the money is claimed, since he holds the money. Lit...

... in it a chance to play upon the weaknesses of men for the sake of gain. That, indeed, explains the presence of the Jew in modern sports and it also explains why the Jewish Idea in sport, instead of being preservative, is corruptive. The Jew saw money where the sportsman saw fun and skill. The Jew set out to capitalize rivalry and to commercialize contestant zeal. This is not necessarily the only...

... well, kept on the trail — long after the trail grew cold, long after the principal wrongdoers forgot their early caution. Where money had once been taken successfully, the gang would be sure to return. Time went on until the 1920 season began to wane. One day when the Chicago and Philadelphia National League teams were engaged in a series at Chicago, strange messages began to reach the office...

... of the Chicago club. The messages were dated from Detroit and informed the Chicago club and management that several "well-known" Jews were betting heavily on Philadelphia. The bets involved large sums of money, and as the contest was only the ordinary run of daily game, not an important contest at all, the unusual interest of Jewish plungers attracted attention. At the same time it was...

... observed that money began rolling into the pool rooms in Philadelphia. Chicago club officials called a hasty conference on receipt of the messages. They called in Grover Cleveland Alexander, explained the situation to him, and told him it was up to him to save the game. It was not Alexander's turn to pitch, Claude R. Hendryx having been chosen for that day; neither was Alexander in training to pitch that...

At least $200,000 was used in actual cash, and no one concerned could command that much money excepting Rothstein, who is either the vilest crook or the most abused man in America. "Rothstein sits in the box with the owner of the New York Giants. He has the entrÈe to...

... the Chicago park began to be suspected. It began to be mysteriously suggested that visiting teams were not getting their full share. Through a system of false accounting, it was said, money was being held out. Naturally, with all the other secret investigations that were proceeding in baseball, this clue was not left untouched. Detectives were hired. Watchers were stationed. Secret counts were made...

...; but there are the facts. The White Sox of Comiskey's palmy days have certainly ridden to a sorry finish under the Jewish control that has been foisted upon it. And it is typical; for there is no surer clue by which to trace a certain type of Jew than by the near certainty that even with honest money rolling in upon him, he will try to increase the flow by petty dishonesty which, once discovered...

.... R." was supposed by some to mean Arnold Rothstein, but others say he is too shrewd even to sign his initials. However, it was asserted that 10 gamblers, all Jews, cleaned up $250,000 on the games and that nearly as much money was used to manage it. Attell was the "goat," the unanimity being rather startling. It has been shown, of course, that men have been so deep in sin that they...

If there were no "Gentle boobs," or if the "Gentile boob" would only take a square look at the man behind the nation-wide spider web, the gamblers and the Jewish sport purveyors would be in another kind of business, with perhaps less money to flaunt in the faces of honest people...
