Henry
Ford unmasked at last!!
|
|
Ford financed
Hitler!!
Adolf Hitler said:
"He
(International Jew) already sees the present-day European
states as will-less tools in his fist, whether indirectly
through a so-called Western democracy, or in the form of direct
domination by Jewish Bolshevism. But it is not only the Old
World that he holds thus enmeshed, the same fate menaces the
New. It is Jews who govern the stock exchange forces of the
American Union. Every year makes them more and more the controlling
masters of the producers in a nation of one hundred and twenty
millions; only a single great man, Ford, to their fury, still
maintains full independence." (Adolf
Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 639).
|
|

No
wonder Adolf Hitler said that Henry Ford was a GREAT MAN because
the ideology and the finances for the Third
Reich came from Ford.
|

Henry Ford
received the Grand Cross of the German Eagle from Adolf Hitler's
Third Reich, presented by Karl Kapp, German consul-general of
Cleveland (left), and Fritz Hailer, German consul of Detroit (right).
Two of the first recipients of the Grand Cross of the German Eagle,
right after Hitler created it, were the Italian dictator Benito
Mussolini, and his son-in-law Count Ciano. |
|
George B. Selden
was the U.S. inventor of the automobile!!
The
horseless carriage or automobile was the next step in the evolution
of the steam engine. By 1885, many countries, especially France and
Germany, had gasoline powered automobiles.

George
B. Selden (1846-1922), U.S. inventor of the automobile.
|
|
George
B. Selden filed the first patent for an internal combustion
powered automobile in 1879. Selden was a Civil War veteran from
Rochester, New York. He was a close friend of camera inventor
George Eastman.
Selden's
father, Henry Selden, was chosen by Abraham Lincoln to be Vice
President, but he turned it down (and in light of Lincoln's
assassination, Henry Selden would have otherwise been the next
U.S. President).
After the
war he studied engineering at Yale, where the great U.S. scientist
J. Willard Gibbs was one of his teachers.
Selden had
to drop out when his father died, so he studied law and passed
the bar exam in 1871. He knew his patent could protect him for
only seventeen years, once it was issued. It was unlikely that
he could produce cars and create a market for them that soon.
Seldon kept
delaying the patent process until he was issued a patent for
his automobile in 1895.
|
Selden
applied for a patent on the "Road Engine" in 1879. Sensing
that the time was not right for a horseless carriage, he delayed issuance
of the patent until 1895, by which time the young automobile industry
was growing in the U.S. Although he had no interest in manufacturing
his invention, he was very interested in benefiting from it.
Under
threat of suit, almost all of the manufacturers took out licenses
from Selden, or from the Association of Licensed Automobile Manufacturers
(ALAM), to whom he sold the patent. In fact, on most cars built during
the next ten or fifteen years you will find a small brass plaque reading
"Manufactured under Selden Patent." Manufacturers were only
required to pay the very small sum of 1 percent of their yearly earnings.
Henry
Ford refused to abide by the Selden patent. He actually said that
"Selden and his patent can go to hell."
The
case came to court and at first the court ruled against Ford. With
the help of Rockefeller money, Ford appealed, and the court overturned
the previous decision and ruled for Ford.

|
Two
Selden patent autos still exist. One is in the Connecticut State Library
in Hartford, Conn., and the other is in of all places the Henry Ford
Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. The Selden auto was a front wheel drive,
turbo charged gas turbine engine mounted on the common buggy of the
day. It was light years ahead of anything that Henry Ford produced.
In
the beginning, Ford's autos had no steering wheel with just a tiller
to steer the car. There can be just 2 reasons for this obvious oversight:
| 1. |
Ford
did not know how to add a steering wheel. |
| 2. |
Ford
knew that he was infringing on the Selden patent and modified
his car by omitting a steering wheel. |
The
second reason is more plausible became Ford raced against cars with
steering wheels which were manufactured under the Selden patent. Under
the Selden patent, manufacturers were required to pay a little over
1 percent of their total earnings for the year. Nobody complained
or refused to pay but Ford. He did not want to acknowledge that his
car was a blatant infringement of the Selden patent.

First
Ford "car" called a Quadricycle made its debut in
1896. Notice it had no steering wheel.

Ford and the Model T

Industrialist
Henry Ford (1863-1947).
|
|

Henry
Ford's ugly gasoline powered Model T was nicknamed the Tin
Lizzy or the Flivver. It did have a steering wheel. By 1925,
only his sponsor John D. Rockefeller,
had more money.
|
In
1908 Henry Ford began production of the infamous gasoline air polluting
car known as the Model T. Most people in the U.S. believed that automobiles
would be powered by the newly developed wonder of ELECTRICITY. Nikola
Tesla's superior AC had won the Battle of the Currents against Thomas
Edison's DC current and Tesla's practical demonstration of the
wireless transmission of electricity made the AC powered automobile
possible.
Ford
was a nobody until 1914 when he announced a $5.00 per day pay scale
for his workers. This move brought him nationwide publicity.
Hundreds
of thousands of men from all over the U.S. arrived in Detroit and
Ford had the pick of the youngest and strongest to man his mass production
rapidly moving assembly line.
In
order for the men to qualify for the $5.00 per day pay scale they
had to meet certain criteria set up by Ford. He set up a special department
modeled after the Inquisition called the Sociology Department. The
initial staff consisted of 30 "investigators" who visited
the homes of all his workers and noted every detail of their private
lives. Any worker who got divorced, used alcohol, or took in boarders
was disqualified from the higher pay scale. Here is a quote from a
Ford biography:
"At
its worst, the new department was a mildly tyrannical instrument which
sowed the seeds of inquisition at the Ford Motor Co. Its agents became,
to some extent, collectors of tales and suspicions. Examined on their
doorsteps, wives were called upon to testify against husbands, children
against parents. Hearsay as well as fact found its way to a card catalogue
where a record was kept of every worker's deviations. To avoid getting
demerits in this index, the wily Ford employees sometimes beat the
game by only pretending an interest in the rules. To some extent,
prying induced lying. As Ford was to put it in his autobiography,
his home visitors made an effort to break up the "evil custom"
of taking in male boarders. To get around this prohibition, certain
of his workmen and their wives simply passed off lodgers as "brothers"
or "cousins." (Sward, The Legend of Henry Ford,
p. 59).
Ford
and the International "Jew"
In
1918, Ford bought a local newspaper called the Dearborn Independent.
Then he ordered the editor, Ernest G. Liebold, to begin writing a
series of article blaming the International "Jew" for all
the problems in the world especially BANKING AND BOLSHEVISM. According
to Ford, the bankers and the Bolshevists were trying to destroy the
entire world and especially the Ford Motor Co.
"Jewish"
is this case was just a smokescreen for "Jesuits" who were
the real international bankers and revolutionaries. If Ford had just
a basic knowledge of the Old Testament he would have easily discovered
that BANKING was the last profession in the world that a real
Jew would be involved in:
"Lord,
who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
He that putteth not out his money to usury (interest), nor taketh
reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never
be moved." (Psalm 15:1-5).
And again:
"He
that by usury (interest) and unjust gain increaseth his substance,
he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor." (Proverbs
28:8).
|
|
|
This
book was translated into German and provided the ideology for
Hitler's hate campaign against Soviet Russia.
It was no
coincidence that in 1917, the Jesuit engineered "miracle"
of Fatima was also the year of the Russian Revolution.
Since Ford
blamed the Bolshevists for all the trouble in the world, and
Russia was now a communist country, Hitler began preaching a
crusade against Bolshevism and especially Russia.
With Ford's
financial and ideological backing, this was a perfect opportunity
to annihilate Russia in order to fulfill Fatima and restore
the Papal States to the
Vatican.
Ford built
a huge factory in Cologne and began building trucks to enable
the Third Reich to destroy the nasty Bolshevists in Russia.

Ford's
Service Department
In
1931, Ford employed an ex-boxer and "tough guy" named Harry
Bennett to head up his security division or Service Department as
it was euphemistically called.
Eventually Bennett had the largest private army of thugs,
hoodlums and ex-convicts in the world. Ford deferred to him in EVEYTHING.
He ran the Ford Motor Company with an iron fist. Hitler's Gestapo
was modeled after the Ford Service Department with its army of ruffians
and thugs.

"Tough
guy" Harry Bennett (1892-1979) ran the Ford Motor Co.,
from about 1930 to 1947. |
|

Henry
Ford with his second in command Harry Bennett. |
This
"tough guy" ran the Ford Motor Company from 1930 to the
death of Ford in 1947. He TERRORIZED everybody except old man Ford
himself. He had links to all the underworld figures in Detroit.
Hitler
greatly admired and copied everything that Ford did. This is where
he got the idea for his own private army called the Gestapo with Himmler
taking the place of Bennett.
"Bennett
liked boxers and wrestlers as well as college athletes, and many
of them, particularly the big tough ones, wound up on the payroll.
Ford had long shown an interest in the redemption of ex-convicts,
and had given many of them a second chance. Bennett continued the
policy, with adaptations. He encouraged the thugs and hoodlums to
continue their line of work in the plant. He also sought out tough
cops and hired them. With this material he built up a small army
of goons who kept the workers under complete control. Anyone doing
anything naughty, like talking union, was beaten to a pulp and fired
for starting a fight." (Herndon, Ford: An Unconventional
Biography of the Men and their Times, p.163).
The
Battle of the Overpass or Ford's Service Dept. in action!!
The
Battle of the Overpass, which took place on May 26, 1937, was an example
of Ford's Service Department in action. The workers HATED the police
state at the Ford factories but even thinking about joining
a union could get you fired . . . after a severe beating
from Bennett's bullies:
"When
leaders of the United Automobile Workers obtained a permit from the
city of Dearborn to distribute handbills in front of the Rouge plant
on May 26, 1937, reporters and photographers made arrangements to
cover the event in full force. Bennett did too. UAW leaders, including
Walter Reuther and Richard Frankensteen, went to the pedestrian bridge
over Miller Road to Gate 4. Among the men waiting for them were Bennett's
boys, including professional boxers, wrestlers, and hoodlums. The
guards moved in on the union men from either side of the overpass
and trapped them there. Suddenly the guards pulled Frankensteen's
coat back over his shoulders and while he was unable to protect himself
with his arms others began hitting him in the face and body. They
knocked him down, then kicked him in the head, kidneys, and testicles.
Reuther was worked over, and dragged down the 36 iron steps. Another
man's back was broken. The thugs then turned on the other union people,
including several women. One girl, kicked in the stomach, vomited.
Those who could still move retreated, dragging their wounded with
them."(Herndon, Ford: An Unconventional Biography of the
Men and their Times, p.172).

"The
reporters witnessed the entire event and photographers took pictures,
but after the fight was over, the goon squad turned on the press.
They tore the reporters' notes from their hands, grabbed and smashed
the photographers' cameras. One photographer escaped. He ran to
the edge of the overpass and dropped his camera into an open convertible,
which sped away. In the camera was the complete photographic record
of the assault, and the pictures were printed all over the world."
(Herndon,
Ford: An Unconventional Biography of the Men and their Times,
pp.172-173).
Thanks
to the miraculous preservation of the photographic record; the world
at last found out what was really going on behind the scenes at the
Ford fiefdom:
"The
reporters buttressed their stories of the Battle of the Overpass with
accounts of eyewitnesses, including a minister, and, after having
been pushed around themselves, they pulled no punches once back in
the safety of their offices. If anyone had not known what was going
on at Ford's, they did then. In the face of the photographic evidence,
Henry Ford denied the whole thing. Edsel Ford sought to negotiate
with the union but had been told by his father to stay away and let
Bennett handle the problem. He must have been almost as sick to his
stomach as the girl who got kicked. Sorensen said that during this
period Edsel determined to resign, but Sorensen talked him into staying.
Edsel insisted on at least attempting to bring about union negotiations,
but his father told him flatly, in a direct way, not to interfere.
Most of the workers in the plant shared his discomfort more directly,
for, after the physical defeat of the union, Bennett unleashed his
full tactics of terror and brutality on the men" (Herndon, Ford:
An Unconventional Biography of the Men and their Times, p.173).
Ford's
only son Edsel was totally disguised the behavior of the Service Department
and urged his father to negotiate with the union. The aroused the
enmity of his father and was one of the reasons why his father had
him murdered in 1943.
Ford's
B-24 bomber factory never got off the ground!!
When
Ford financed Adolf Hitler declared war on the U.S. in Dec. 1941,
Hitler was sure that his Ford financier would do EVERYTHING in his
power to ensure a Nazi victory. Ford did not disappoint him. In 1941,
the U.S. government gave Ford the staggering sum of 200 MILLION dollars
to build a state of the art bomber factory. Ford boasted that he would
soon be producing a bomber every hour.
| 
Willow
Run bomber factory— the largest in the world— was
built by Ford for the staggering sum of 200 MILLION dollars.
|
|

Willow
Run was later called Will-it Run? because they only produced
a total of about 8,000 bombers during the entire war.
|
Willow
Run was about 30 miles from Detroit with only 2 railway lines connecting
it to the city. Ford forgot to build housing for his workers.
None of Bennett's goons harassed the workers at that factory
for not producing. As a matter of fact, working too fast could get
you fired!!
Instead
of one plane an hour as Ford boasted, the factory only produced a
total of 8,000 planes during the entire war. That was quite OK with
Ford because he didn't want any bombs falling on his friend Hitler
or on his busy Ford factories in Germany and France.
Edsel Ford was
murdered in 1943
Edsel
Ford, the only son of Henry, was president of Ford Motor Company from
1919 to 1943. As president, he was only a figurehead, as the company
was run by Ford and Bennett.

Edsel
Bryant Ford (1893-1943) was poisoned and died in May, 1943.
|
|
Edsel
was a Ford with a human face totally opposite in temperament
from his father. He clashed with his father over the brutal
treatment of the workers and was determined to resign several
times.
When
he saw the Willow Run factory producing inferior planes and
lying idle most of the time he was disgusted and threatened
to resign.
Fascist
Henry Ford would do ANYTHING to ensure a Nazi victory even to
having his own son killed:
"For
the next two years, Sorensen says, the irascible old man hammered
away at his son through Bennett, and in April of 1943 he landed
the heaviest blow yet. Ford ordered Sorensen to change Edsel's
attitude on several major points. Edsel was to cooperate with
Bennett on all matters in general, labor discord in particular,
to break up his relationship with his old friend Kanzler, and
to "regain health by cooperating with Henry Ford."
Sorensen was convinced that Bennett was responsible for the
whole thing, but he had no choice but to pass on the father's
wishes. Edsel said there was nothing left for him to do but
to resign. Sorensen again dissuaded him. A month later Edsel
was dead. Henry Ford was smitten with grief." (Herndon,
Ford: An Unconventional Biography of the Men and their Times,
pp.175-176).

"Doctor"
Henry Ford actually told his son that he could regain his health by
cooperating with Bennett.
Henry
Ford and Thomas Edison
Most
people associate the name Thomas Alva Edison with ELECTRICITY. He
is credited with inventing the ELECTRIC light bulb and developing
the DC dynamo. Few would associate him with Ford and the noisy air
polluting gasoline engine.
Ford
actually worked at the Detroit Edison Illuminating Co. for several
years before founding the Ford Motor Co. He would work all day for
Edison and then go home and tinker in his garage with his engine.

Alva Edison (1847-1931).

Ford (left) and 2 co-workers at the Edison Illuminating Co.
|
Ford
looked on Edison as a sort of demigod. He finally got to meet his
hero at a convention in Atlantic City, New Jersey, in 1887. Here is
Ford's own account of their first meeting:
"No
man exceeds Thomas A. Edison in broad vision and understanding.
I met him first many years ago when I was with the Detroit Edison
Company, —probably about 1887 or thereabouts. The electrical
men held a convention at Atlantic City, and Edison, as the leader
in electrical science, made an address. I
was then working on my gasoline engine, and most people, including
all of my associates in the electrical company, had taken pains
to tell me that time spent on a gasoline engine was time wasted—that
the power of the future was to be electricity. These criticisms
had not made any impression on me. I was working ahead with all
my might. But being in the same room with Edison suggested to me
that it would be a good idea to find out if the master of electricity
thought it was going to be the only power in the future. So, after
Mr. Edison had finished his address, I managed to catch him alone
for a moment. I told him what I was working on. At once he was interested.
He is interested in every search for new knowledge. And then I asked
him if he thought that there was a future for the internal combustion
engine. He answered something in this fashion" (Ford,
My Life and Work, p. 234).
Here
is Edison's reply to the future of the gasoline engine:
"Yes,
there is a big future for any light-weight engine, that can develop
a high horsepower and be self-contained. No one kind of motive power
is ever going to do all the work of the country. We do not know what
electricity can do, but I take for granted that it cannot do everything.
Keep on with your engine. If you can get what you are after, I can
see a great future."
(Ford, My Life and Work, pp. 234-235).
This
is the same Thomas Edison who rejected the AC induction motor of Nicola
Tesla —one of the greatest inventions in the history of the
world. Edison even went on to invent the ELECTRIC CHAIR to prove how
dangerous AC current was. By 1900, Tesla had proven the superiority
of AC over DC and he had demonstrated the practicality of wireless
transmission of AC making the AC automobile completely feasible.

Henry
Ford and Thomas Edison became very close friends.
