Harvard, 1905. Married Anne Douglass of Milwaukee. His son, C.
Douglas Dillon (later Secretary of the Treasury, 1961-65) was born in
Geneva, Switzerland in 1909 while they were abroad. Dillon met
William A. Read, founder of the Wall Street bond broker William A.
Read and Company, through introduction by Harvard classmate William
A. Phillips in 1912 and Dillon joined Read's Chicago office in that
year. He moved to New York in 1914. Read died in 1916, and Dillon
bought a majority interest in the firm. During World War 1, Bernard

American industry) asked Dillon to be assistant chairman of the War
Industries Board. In 1920, William A. Read & Company name was
changed to Dillon, Read & Company. Dillon was director of

Fortune Magazine listed Dillon as one of the richest men in the
United States, with a fortune then estimated to be from $150 to $200
million.
ALAN GREENSPAN (1926- )
Appointed by President Reagan to succeed Paul Volcker as Chairman of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in 1987.
Greenspan had succeeded Herbert Stein as chairman of the President's
Council of Economic Advisors in 1974. He was the protégé
of former chairman of the Board of Governors, Arthur Burns of Austria
(Bernstein). Burns was a monetarist representing the Rothschild's
Viennese School of Economics, which manifested its influence in
England through the Royal Colonial Society, a front for Rothschilds
and other English bankers who stashed their profits from the world
drug trade in the Hong Kong Shanghai Bank. The staff economist for
the Royal Colonial Society was Alfred Marshall, inventor of the
monetarist theory, who, as head of the Oxford Group, became the
patron of Wesley Clair Mitchell, who founded the National Bureau of
Economic Research for the Rockefellers in the United States.
Mitchell, in turn, became the patron of Arthur Burns and Milton
Friedman, whose theories are now the power techniques of Greenspan at
the Federal Reserve Board. Greenspan is also the protégé
of Ayn Rand, a weirdo who interposed her sexual affairs with guttural
commands to be selfish. Rand was also the patron of CIA propagandist
William Buckeley and the National Review. Greenspan was director of
major Wall Street firms such as J.P. Morgan Co., Morgan Guaranty
Trust (the American bank for the Soviets after the Bolshevik
Revolution of 1917), Brookings Institution, Bowery Savings Bank, the
Dreyfus Fund, General Foods, and Time, Inc. Greenspan's most
impressive achievement was as chairman of the National Commission on
Social Security from 1981-1983. He juggled figures to convince the
public that Social Security was bankrupt, when in fact it had an
enormous surplus. These figures were then used to fasten onto
American workers a huge increase in Social Security withholding tax,
which invoked David Ricardo's economic dictum of the iron law of
wages, that workers could only be paid a subsistence wage, and any
funds beyond that must be extorted from them forcibly by tax
increases. As a partner of J.P. Morgan Co. since 1977, Greenspan
represented the unbroken line of control of the Federal Reserve
System by the firms represented at the secret meeting on Jekyll
Island in 1910, where Henry P. Davison, righthand man of J.P. Morgan,
was a key figure in the drafting of the Federal Reserve Act. Within
days of taking over as chairman of the Federal Reserve Board,
Greenspan immediately raised the interest rate on Sept. 4, 1987, the
first such increase in three years of general prosperity, and
precipitated the stock market crash of Oct., 1987, Black Monday, when
the Dow Jones average plunged 508 points. Under Greenspan's
direction, the Federal Reserve Board has steadily nudged the United
States deeper and deeper into recession, without a word of criticism
from the complaisant members of Congress.
