In 1954, a House (U.S.A. Congress) Subcommittee held extensive hearings on a bill to protect the public health from the dangers of artificial fluoridation of public water supplies. The issue developed considerable controversy. Much testimony was given on both sides of the question. A very powerful statement against fluoridation was submitted to this subcommittee by Dr. Charles A. Brusch, Director of the Cambridge Medical Center, Boston, Mass. Attention will be directed in this release to the outstanding features of Dr. Brusch's statement.
"There are two kinds of fluoride:
(1) Natural - organic - not readily soluble. This is known as calcium fluoride... The saving presence of calcium in naturally fluoridated water serves to protect the human who consumes it from the danger of serious toxic poisoning from the fluoride ion present in the water.
(2) Artificial - inorganic - highly toxic, protoplasmic poison, freely soluble... This synthetic artificial fluoride is usually a byproduct of bauxite which is used in the manufacture of aluminium...
This protoplasmic poison affects every cell in the body: skeletal, muscular, vascular, nervous, circulatory, perspiratory, gastro-intestinal, genito-urinary tract and reproductive organs.
"Boiling of artificially fluoridated water concentrates the fluoride. In ten to twenty minutes of boiling, water which was one part fluoride to one million of water becomes 2 parts per million parts of water.
"Artificial fluoridation is fraught with dangers. Sodium fluoride is a highly toxic protoplasmic poison, 15 times stronger than arsenic, and it has radioactive properties. Here are some of the effects of persistent ingestion of artificial sodium fluoride:
Bone changes; blood changes; heart injury; increased cholesterol of the blood may contribute to high blood pressure and cause hardening of the arteries; Kidney troubles... Diabetes; Nervous disorders: it affects the cerebral area. Tests on rats showed a marked deterioration in mental alertness, accompanied by a state of passiveness and bewilderment; Eye injury; Mottled teeth - even in a concentration of 1 part per million mottling was caused.
(The above is made up of excerpts taken from a press release of Congressman Usher L. Burdick, which release came out, March 20, 1958. The release quotes the Congressional House Subcommittee investigation. The reprints of this release were furnished by the National Committee Against Fluoridation, located in Washington D.C. Ed.)

Rougemont Quebec Monthly Meetings
Every 4th Sunday of every month, a monthly meeting is held in Rougemont.
In this special issue of the journal, MICHAEL, the reader will discover who are the true rulers of the world. We discuss that the current monetary system is a mechanism to control populations. The reader will come to understand that "crises" are created and that when governments attempt to get out of the grip of financial tyranny wars are waged.
An Efficient Financial System, written by Louis Even, is for the reader who has some understanding of the Douglas Social Credit monetary reform principles. Technical aspects and applications are discussed in short chapters dedicated to the three propositions, how equilibrium between prices and purchasing power can be achieved, the financing of private and public production, how a Social Dividend would be financed, and, finally, what would become of taxes under a Douglas Social Credit economy. Study this publication to better grasp the practical application of Douglas' work. 
Reflections of African bishops and priests after our weeks of study in Rougemont, Canada, on Economic Democracy, 2008-2018
The Social Dividend is one of three principles that comprise the Social Credit monetary reform which is the topic of this booklet. The Social Dividend is an income granted to each citizen from cradle to grave, with- out condition, regardless of employment status.
Economic Democracy is a book to explain Social Credit in lessons presented in logical order so it may be easier to the reader to grab the main principles of Social Credit rapidly and somehow easily.
In This Age of Plenty deals with Social Credit, but it does not exhaust the topic. Social Credit principles address social and political matters, as well as, or even more so, than economics and will put civilization on a new course.
From Debt to Prosperity outlines briefly the economic analysis and constructive proposals known as Social Credit.
