He graduated in 1911 from the New Mexico A&M College and went on to become the editor/owner of the Roosevelt County Record. The second part of the book expounds on his theory that the US during and after the depression would be better off by not using any money- thus his moniker of Old Moneyless. His ideas of Moneyless Government (MG) were a form of socialism and something that he professed as workable up to the printing of this book. A clean presentable book in a Brodart mylar jacket with the unfortunate water damage.
