1. Money is property. Federal Reserve notes are liabilities, not assets. Cash, according to

the book. See: “The Federal Reserve Bank; Its Purposes and Functions,” is coin.

 

2. Current money: Whatever is receivable and current by law as money. See: Henderson

v. Farmers Savings Bank, 199 Iowa 496.

 

3. The precious metals alone are money, and whatever else is to perform the functions ofmoney must be their representative and capable of being turned into them at will. So longas bank paper retains this quality it is a substitute for money; divested of this, nothing cangive it that character. See: 3 Websters Works 41; Woodruff v. Miss, 162 US Reports 307.

 

4. A Note is only promise to pay. See: Fidelity Savings v. Grimes, 131 P 2d 894.

 

5. Legal tender notes are not good as lawful money of the U.S.. See: Rains v. State, 226

S.W. 189.

 

6. Checks, drafts, money orders, and bank notes are not lawful money of the U.S. See:

State v. Nealan, 43 Ore 158.

 

7. Where the Fed. Gov. is a party to commercial paper, it is bound by same rules whichgovern private persons. See: Continental American Bank v. U.S., C.C.A. La. (1947) 161F.2d 93.

 

8. The government assumes all responsibilities of private persons when it issues

commercial paper. See: U.S. v. First National Bank, 138 F.2d 681.

 

9. Federal Reserve Notes are a first and paramount lien on all the assets of the issuing
Federal Reserve bank. See: Moody’s Bank & Financial Manual, page 2105. (If Federal
Reserve notes are a lien on the banks, no wonder they want to eliminate the use of
Federal Reserve notes and deal only with computer entries.)

 

10. Negotiable Instruments Law was designed to cover commercial paper and U.S.

currency. See: LSA-R.S. 17; 1 et seq LSA-C.C. art 2139

 

11. The public’s use of demand deposits as money is not based on authorization by the
Federal Government. Even today, legal tender, the kind of money in which debts are
payable, does not include demand deposits. See: An Introduction to Money and Banking,
by Colin and Rosemary Campbell, Professors of Economics.

 

12. U.S. Currency does not contain all of essence of negotiable instrument under
Louisiana law. U.S. currency is the object for which negotiable instruments issue. The
very first requirement of our negotiable instrument law is that the instrument be signed by
the maker. The signatures on paper money are made by facsimile stamp put there by
machine. See: Civil Code Art. 2139 La; 120 So. 2d 845.

 

13. Federal Reserve Notes are not legal money. See: Jerome Daly v. First National Bankof Montgomery, Minn. Justice Martin v. Mahoney, Credit River Township, December 7-9. 1968. Ruled that Federal Reserve notes were fiat money and not legal tender.
