These evil shape-shifters are devoted students of the occult. Notice that the total square footage of their tower equals *13* (6+2+5). Even their floor number adds up to *13* ... 55 Water Street, Floor *49*, New York, NY 10041.

They have stolen everything in this country, as a result of forced bankruptcy, and only a minuscule percentage of the populace truly understands that they, as well as their children, have been born into forced servitude or slavery!

The DTC - A Nine Trillion Dollar Secret

The Depository Trust Company (DTC) is the best-kept secret in America. Headquartered at 55 Water Street, Floor 49, New York, NY, this "financial institution" is the most powerful in the world, yet the public doesn't have a clue as to who they are or what they do. How can a "bank" hold assets of over *9 trillion* dollars and be virtually unknown?

The DTC is the largest limited trust company in the world, with assets of $9.1 trillion. Can you imagine? An unknown banking company could pay off the national debt, and them some! The DTC is a brokerage and transfer center. They are a private bank for securities. They handle the book entry transactions for ALL banks and brokers. Every bank and brokerage firm must secure their membership with them, in case they become insolvent, so your assets are secure with DTC. Yes, you read that correctly - the DTC is a private entity that processes every stock and paper securities for all United States banks and brokerage houses. Just who gave this company such a broad range of financial power and clout?

The reason the public doesn't know about the DTC is that they are a private depository bank for institutions and brokerage firms only. They process all of their book entry settlement transactions. The DTC believes that there is no need for the public to know about them. It is required by the Federal Reserve that the DTC handle ALL transactions.

The Federal Reserve Corporation is also a private company, not an agency of the federal government, as you have been misled to believe. They mandated that the DTC process every securities transaction in the U.S. It's no wonder that the DTC is owned by the same stockholders as the Federal Reserve Corporation. In other words, the DTC is really a front for the Federal Reserve Corporation. Now let's see how this affects the average working American.

You go to the bank or broker and instruct them that you want to purchase 100 shares of IBM stock, for example. They set up an account for you and act as your agent, with power of attorney to conduct business on your behalf, upon your buy and sell instructions. The broker will place your stock or bond purchase into their safekeeping [?] under a "street name." According to the DTC, no bank or broker can place the stock into their firm's own name, due to Federal Trade Commission and Security and Exchange Commission regulations.

The broker or bank must then send the transaction to the DTC for "ledger posting" or "book entry settlement" under mandate by the Federal Reserve Corporation. Remember, since your bank or broker can't use their name on the certificate, they use a fictitious entity name or "street name." This artificial entity is always related to the broker or bank. Then the "street name" stock or bond certificate is automatically transferred to, or credited to, the DTC. Since the DTC is technically a bank, they cannot hold the certificate in their name either, so the DTC transfers the certificate to their own holding company or "nominee name." The DTC's holding company is Cede & Company.

The bankers AND brokers are merely "custodians." By federal law, they cannot hold any assets in your name, the customer. The assets must be held, eventually, in the name of the DTC's holding company. That's how the DTC has $9.1 trillion of assets "in trust". Or is it really in "trust", if the Federal Reserve Corporation is technically holding it in their "unknown" entity's name? Obviously, if stock and bond certificates that you've purchased aren't in *your* name, then the holder [the Federal Reserve Corporation] could theoretically refuse to surrender them back to you under a "national emergency", according to the 1917 "Trading With The Enemy Act. This is the collateral being held by the private Federal Reserve Corporation to pay off the national debt owed to them by our government.

The DTC was a former member of the NYSE and their "sister" company is the National Securities Clearing Corporation. Simply put, the Depository Trust Company absolutely controls every paper asset transaction in America and they physically hold the majority of stock and bond certificates in their name. If you have stock or bonds in *your* name buried in your back yard, or hidden under your mattress, we suggest you keep them there.

On June 7, 1995, the federal government issued new regulations requiring stock and bond transfers to be cleared in 3 days, instead of the previous 5-day time period. This means that brokers and banks must get your stock or bond transaction into the name of the DTC withing 3 working days. That's hard to do, considering that banks claim that it takes 3 or mare days to clear a check that you've submitted to pay for a stock purchase. But there's a reason for this new regulation and it conincides with the introduction of the new "Fiat dollars."

Consider this. All pension funds and other institutional "managed funds" are comprised of paper asset investments, such as stocks and bonds. These certificates are technically in the name of DTC's holding company. DTC is technically owned by the private Federal Reserve Corporation. Congress is moving to pass legislation that will allow certain pension funds to be used by the government as alleged loans. All the Federal Reserve Corporation has to do is hand it over! But what happens to the people counting on those pension fund investments to feed themselves? Too bad. You're out of luck, because for "the good of the nation", you must share your wealth. Since the Federal Reserve Corporation already holds our stocks and bonds in their fictitious name, they'll cash them in for the federal government's failure to repay the loans that have become long overdue. A diabolical plan that creates endless debt that can never be repaid.

The World's Largest Stockpile Of Gold

Just a few blocks away from all of the turmoil and panic of the stock market on Wall Street sits the world's largest stockpile of gold. Deep under the streets of Manhattan sits more gold than the James Bond villain "Goldfinger" could have ever imagined.

Nearly $200 billion dollars worth of gold rests on bedrock, five stories underground, 30 feet below New York City's subway system, inside the Federal Reserve Bank of New York's vault located at 33 Liberty Street in New York City. That's more gold than can be found in Fort Knox (which some financial experts believe has been entirely emptied of its gold reserves since President Johnson's administration.). Very little of this gold belongs to the United States.

There are roughly 540,000 gold bars belonging to 48 foreign central banks and 12 international organizations, such as The International Monetary Fund (IMF) or the Bank for International Settlements (BIS). The United States has about 5 percent of its gold stored there. Federal Reserve officials were very tight-lipped about who owns what gold. Accounts are identified by number only, not by name.

The Federal Reserve stores the gold for "free", but every depositor pays $1.75 for each bar that is moved. The vault supposedly contains about 25 percent of the world's gold reserves (although I believe the actual percentage is closer to 50%). That's more gold than the entire annual economy of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), which is home to both Dubai and Abu Dhabi, both extremely wealthy oil-rich countries.

The majority of gold came to the Federal Reserve after World War II, as countries sought a safe place to keep their wealth. New York City's rise as one of the world's major financial capitals also makes it convenient for countries that want to sell their holdings.

From the distance, the Federal Reserve's New York City building looks half like any other office tower in the financial district and half like a medieval fortress. Windows on the bottom three floors are covered by large, imposing iron bars. Up high is a circular tower. You almost expect to see a knight standing sentry. Instead, heavily armed guards from the Federal Reserve's private security force circle the surrounding blocks with large, imposing automatic weapons. The armed guards even have their own firing range on site to practice.

Once inside the building - there was a thorough security check - I was told that taking pictures is strictly prohibited. A sign in the lobby warns: "All cameras must be checked. If pictures are taken, the film will be confiscated."

But forget all the guns, cameras and thick walls. The real security is the vault itself.

The gold vault - about half the size of a football field - was built and lowered into New York's bedrock in 1921, before the building was completed in 1924. Solid rock surrounds it on all sides.

There is only one way in or out -- through a narrow, 10-foot passageway cut into a 90-ton steel cylinder that sits within a giant steel-and-concrete frame. The cylinder can actually be lowered three-eighths of an inch to create an airtight and watertight seal. Large bolts then get inserted into the cylinder, locking it into place. Timers prevent it from being opened again until the next business day.

Besides all of the heavy security, robbing the place would be a logistical nightmare. Each bar weighs 28 pounds, but because of the density of the bars, they feel closer to 45 pounds. Workers must wear special metal covers over their shoes in case a bar falls on their feet. In one corner of the vault, the concrete floor is dented where some gold bars were once dropped.

War Powers Resolution

In 1933, all gold was taken from the hands of private citizens. Under the War Powers Act (actual name is War Powers Resolution), a national emergency was declared due to the deliberately calculated stock market crash that preceded the great depression. Where did this gold end up? Into the hands of the Federal Reserve Corporation. The majority is stored in the impervious rock beneath New York City. Is it any surprise that the DTC holds our stock and bond certificates in the same place?

Since March 9, 1933, the United States has been in a state of declared national emergency. In fact, there are now in effect four presidentially-proclaimed states of national emergency: In addition to the national emergency declared by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1933, there is also the national emergency proclaimed by President Harry S. Truman on December 16, 1950 during the Korean conflict and the state of national emergency declared by President Richard M. Nixon on March 23, 1970 and August 15, 1971.

These proclamations give force to 470 provisions of Federal law. These 470 statutes delegate to the President extraordinary powers, ordinarily exercised by the Congress, which affect the lives of American citizens in a host of all-encompassing ways. This vast range of powers, taken together, confer enough authority to rule the country without reference to normal Constitutional process.

Under the powers delegated by these statutes, the President may: seize property; organize and control the means of production; seize commodities; assign military forces abroad; institute martial law; seize and control all transportation and communication; regulate the operation of private enterprise; restrict travel; and, in a plethora of particular ways, control the lives of all American citizens.

Technically, our entire nation is still under the War Powers Act and is still in a continual state of national emergency. The President can enforce any new emergency at any time under executive order or presidential directive. This national emergency will call for the confiscation of all gold bullion again. Who will end up with it? The Federal Reserve Corp., just like before. Then, perhaps, they'll peg a new dollar to gold prices, as many experts have already reported. What will stocks and bonds purchased with old dollars be worth then? Pennies on the dollar, so to speak. Who ends up being the only winner? The Federal Reserve Corp. stockholders. People will be at the mercy of the government for jobs and their daily food. Without a fed fund ATM-type card, you won't be able to transact business, get your food ration, or pay your electric bill. Checks will eventually be phased out entirely. The switch is being turned on soon. This is not speculation! This is the truth of reality. It's already been tested and their new system works.

During the trial of James and Sharon Patterson, (Case 6:97-CR-51) William Wayne Justice, Judge of the United States District Court, Texas-Eastern Division, when presented with the law stated: "I take my orders from England. This is not a law this court goes by."

For those who did not believe that the United States was under Great Britain rule, here it is straight from the mouth of a Federal Judge! America has never been free. The Revolutionary War was a fraud, perpetrated upon the American people. The war's real purpose was to "centralize power" and make people easier to control.

All licensed Bar Attorneys in the U.S. owe their allegiance and give their solemn oath in pledge to the Crown Temple, realizing this or not. This is simply due to the fact that all Bar Associations throughout the world are signatories and franchises to the international Bar Association located at the Inns of Court at Crown Temple, which are physically located at Chancery Lane behind Fleet Street in London. Although they vehemently deny it, all Bar Associations in the U.S., such as the American Bar Association, the Florida Bar, or California Bar Association, are franchises to the Crown.

All Congress Members, Senators, Judges, States Attorneys, and other political office holders, regardless of whether they are aware of their complicity or not, are in fact British Agents. They are held accountable for keeping the employable population in line to be 'productive colony slaves', for which they are handsomely rewarded, as long as they continue to tow the Crown Temple line.

All law enforcement personnel - regardless of rank - also work for Great Britain. They have been deceived as well, since most of them are completely oblivious about where their true allegiance and sworn oath to "public service" duty lies (to the British Crown).

Another thing to think about - who owns the media as well as the strictly controlled news that you are fed? An Independent Press? I don't think so. Have you ever heard of the Independent Treasury Act of 1921? No ... you say?

The Independent Treasury Act Of 1921 suspended the "de jure" (by right of legal establishment) Treasury Department of the United States government. The sniveling US Congress turned the Treasury Department over to a *private corporation* (the Federal Reserve) and their agents. The bulk of ownership of the Federal Reserve System, a very well kept secret from the American Person, is held by these primary banking interests:

Rothschild Bank of London
Rothschild Bank of Berlin
Warburg Bank of Hamburg
Warburg Bank of Amsterdam
Lazard Brothers of Paris
Israel Moses Seif Banks of Italy
Chase Manhattan Bank of New York
Goldman, Sachs of New York
Lehman Brothers of New York
Kuhn Loeb Bank of New York
