Here it is possible to see the Jewish agents of Jewish capital hurrying
to and fro with every assurance of success, working along well-defined
lines, known to themselves but concealed from the public, building up a
colossal structure which public opinion was to hurl down in two decades.
But two decades were enough for enormous revenues to be derived from the
criminal debasement of all kinds of liquor, which became more apparent
from the time of the giant consolidation.
Whisky became so rotten that in Kentucky, the pioneer whisky state,
there were only four whole “wet” counties by 1908. The first decade of
absolute Jewish control put even the first whisky state in the “dry”
column.
The Jewish compounders did not care how they marketed their goods, so
long as they could sell them in quantities. The cheap “barrel house”
appeared with its windows full of gleaming bottles and gaudy labels and
“cut rate” whisky prices. The compounders became saloon owners toward
the end of the saloon era, and many Jews went into the “barrel house”
business for a quick clean-up. The proportion of vicious dives increased
everywhere, and the moral guardians of society were amazed at “the wave
of vice” that was “sweeping over the country”; but they did not have the
key that explained it. The whisky business was riding to a wild finish,
but the men at the helm knew exactly what they were doing, every moment
of the time. To look back upon that period, with all the facts at hand,
makes it more and more apparent how fitting is the term, “boob Gentile.”
Why, even Norman Hapgood knew how bad it was, and _Collier’s Weekly_,
under his editorship, was the first journal in the land to print the
names of Jews in connection with the liquor debauchery of the country.
But those were the good old days, when Hapgood could tell the truth even
about Hearst, the man for whom he now writes his graceless palaver of
pro-Jewish propaganda.
In _Collier’s Weekly_, during the year 1908, solid truths appeared,
which are in point today as proofs of what was transpiring. There was a
specially scathing attack on what was called “nigger gin,” a peculiarly
vile beverage which was compounded to act upon the Negro in a most
vicious manner. Will Irwin spoke of this gin as “the king iniquity in
the degenerated liquor traffic of these United States.” This author and
_Collier’s_ started a new fashion in giving publicity not only to the
names of certain brands of liquors, but also the names of the men who
made them. It turned out that the maker of a brand of “nigger gin” which
had spurred certain Negroes on to the nameless crime, was one Lee Levy.
