The Trading with the Enemy Act

17 May 2005

Paul:

Here is the remedy that needs to be researched and implemented. The Trading
with the enemy act was expressly excepted from the operation and effect of Joint Res.
March 3, 1921, ch. 136 41 Stat. 1359, declaring that certain acts of Congress, joint
resolutions, and proclamations should be construed as though the World War has ended
and the then present or existing emergency expired. The Trading with the enemy act is
referred to in section 1982 of this Appendix; title 8 section 1227; title 12 section 4407;
title 19 section 2581; title 22 section 1382, 1384, 1631a, 1631o, 6009; title 26 section
911; title 28 section 2680. The remedy is provided for in section 7 of the Appendix of title
50.
If you read section 2 of the Emergency Bank Act of March 9, 1933, it amended
section 5 (b) of the Trading with the enemy act of October 6, 1917, to include citizens of
the United States under this act, whereas they were excluded under the original act passed
in October 6, 1917. This is why in section 7 all corporations [United States] have to
supply a full list of the enemies of the United States to the Alien Property
Custodian [Secretary of Treasury under E.O. 11281, May 13, 1966]. No transaction is
valid under section 7 unless the enemy has a license general or special [see section 3(a) of
title 50 of the Appendix], granted by the president to perform such transaction.
Section 7 (c) says "The sole relief and remedy of any person having any claim
to any money or other property heretofore or hereafter conveyed, transferred, assigned,
delivered, or paid over to the Alien Property Custodian, or required to be, or seized by
him shall be that provided by the terms of this Act [said sections]".
Section 7 (e) says "No person shall be held liable in any court for or in respect
to anything done or omitted in pursuance of any order, rule, or regulation made by the
president under the authority of this Act [sections 1 to 6, 7 to 39, and 41 to 44 of this
Appendix]." Isn't the Emergency Bank Act of 1933 an emergency regulation or E.O.
passed by the president, under the Trading with the enemy Act? And it says that he [no
person] will not be held liable for anything done or omitted in pursuance of this Act.
Aren't all criminal prosecutions done under this act as an alien enemy? The Office of the
Alien Property Custodian was abolished by Executive order 11281 of May 13, 1966, 31
FR 7215, 3 CFR, 1955-1970 Comp. p. 546. The remaining functions were transferred to
the Secretary of the Treasury. After being abolished in 1920 the Department of the
Treasury was re-established on November 14, 2004.
Also read title 28 section 3002 (3) "Debt" (A) an amount that is owing to the
United States on account of a direct loan, or loan insured or guaranteed [FICA], by the
United States (B) an amount that is owing to the United States on account of . . . .
. . . bail bond forfeiture [failure to redeem bond]. (8) "Judgment" means a judgment,
order, or decree entered in favor of the United States in a court and arising from a civil or
criminal proceeding regarding a debt. Why are they talking about a debt under a
criminal proceeding in a Federal Rule of Civil Procedure? Aren't all crimes commercial
under 27 CFR section 72.11? Read all of title 50 of the Appendix sections 1-44.
