1. This is a reproduction of Wright Patman's "A Primer On Money" -- originally published in 1964 by the U.S. Government Printing Office.
2. This was, and still is, the first and only book that I know of that truthfully tells how the money and banking system works in the U.S.A.
   Patman might not always have been on-point -- but I think we can be sure he was calling it as he believed it. (mrc)

A .pdf of the original was read with an optical scanner by Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.
That resulted in lots of garbled words. The document was then read by a human
and the errors were corrected manually. Undoubtedly lots of the errors were thus
missed. If you find an error, please call it to our attention so we can fix it. April, 2009
