ROTHSCHILDS AS
KINGS’ FRIENDS !
FOR MANY YEARS |
NEW YORK, Dec. 23 — </P)—'The
powerful Rothschild family has
proved the best friend of many
kings of Europe in the past cen
tury—but never in the way one of
their sons is befriending former
King Edward ot England today.
Edward’s decision to make his
refuge until at least after Christmas
at the Rothschild castle at Enzes
feld, Austria, recalls that many a
ruler before him has turned to
members of that amazing family for
help In a crisis. Heretofore that
help always has been in form of
bank notes.
Secure Dynasty
While royal dynasties have come
and gone in Europe, the Roths
childs, by intermarriage and close
collaboration of their banking
houses in four nations have built a
dynasty much more secure.
Depending on the pen of a Roths
child, armies of Europe for a cen
tury have starved and lost, or had
their bully beef and won.
Britain from the time of the Duke
of Wellington; the rulers of Prussia,
Bavaria and other German states
down to the time of the Kaiser; the
sbuilders of the Austria empire and
the kings of the nations formed out
of it; the Bourbons and the repub
licans of France—all in their time
they have crossed a Rothschild
threshold in search of their destiny
even as Edward has.
Mayer Amsel, brought up to be
a rabbi, founded the Rothschild
banking business in Frankfort-am
Main about 1800.
Danish Loan i
Amsel made his first foreign loan j
to the Danish government. He also
became agent for William of Hesse
Cassel, who turned his treasure over
to the banker on fleeing from his
capital before a French army. Am
sel buried it, digging up parts at
different times secretly and was so
successful in the transaction that
he was able to pay William back
with five per cent interest.
Four Rothschild sons established
banking houses branches in Lon
don, Paris, Vienna and Naple while
the oldest, Anslem Mayer Roths
child. remained at Frankfort and
in 1820 became the Bavarian court
banker.
Nathan Famous
Nathan, who went to England, be
came the most famous of all the
Rothschilds. He gambled all on the
Allies to crush Napoleon. He used
carrier pigeons and sailing ships to
bring him news of events in distant
countries ahead of other financiers.
News of Bluchers defeat, two
days before Waterloo, caused a
crash in security prices but Nathan
got the first news of Waterloo,
bought up cheap securities and from
that day the House of Rothschild
was made. Drafts signed by Well
ington, which the English govern
ment was unable to pay, already
had made Nathan a power with the
Allies.
Solomon went to Vienna, became
intimate with Prince ; Mettemich
and helped him become arbiter of
Europe for many years; Jacob wont
to France and established the house,
now known as Rothschild Freres,
helping Louis Phlllippe, the "clti
*en king"; and Karl founded the
Naples branch of the house, dis
continued in 1860.
Edward’s present host is Baron
Eugene Daniel Rothschild. ‘His
father moe Dor/us AIKa^ r>.iu_i,:i
head of the Vienna house until 1911.
Baron Louis Rothschild, his old
est son. was president of the great
est Austrian bank. Credit Anstalt,
which crashed in 1931, shaking
every country in Europe. *
Economists rated the crash as
one of the factors in the world-wide
depression, caused by the failure'
of loans made to central European
nations.
It saddled Austria with a debt of
$162,000,000. Baron Louis and an
other older brother of Edward's
host, Alfonse, turned over their es
tates to cover losses.
Their father's estate had been
valued at $145,000,000.
A settlement for payment of $18,
000,000 on the Austrian debt finally
was reached in 1936. But an Eng
lish member of the family, Baron
Lionel, represented the foreign cred
itors in the negotiations.
