The Writ of Habeas Corpus provision provides that no one may be arrested by the government, unless the arrest is made pursuant to the Constitution. My recollection was that Habeas Corpus may be suspended only, “when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the Public Safety, may require it.” Interesting that the authority granted the President allowed such a broad degree of discretion, and that the “gold and silver” mandated by the Constitution would be an object of this Act. Section 6 provides for “officials to he known as ‘alien pi property custodians”, who will be empowered to receive all money or property owned by, or owed to, any enemy or ally of enemy.” Has this become the IRS? This appears to be a direct violation of that portion of Article V, Bill of Rights, which states, “nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself”, and is the beginning of the decimation of our Rights protected thereunder.

Portions of said Act are presented below:
World War I, the War to end all wars, allowed the Congress to pass the “Trading with the enemy Act”. I will give quotes and refer to the documents from which they are taken. It is important, since we now know this to be true, to understand exactly how it was that we came under “Martial Law.” It is one thing to assume that it is true, another to know that is true and quite another to KNOW why it is true. This paperwork comes from a Citizens for Legal Reform meeting, January 18, 1994, “Abolition of the United States Constitution Under the War Powers Act”, by Dr. Thanks to a very close fiend from Dallas, Texas, that I have never met (he was my “alarm clock” during the siege in Waco - by virtue of calling me every morning, to wake me up), I now have most of the paperwork that supports this contention. I have not, however, been able to find the documentation of this matter and, therefore, have been reluctant to claim such. I, like many others, looked at the circumstances and assumed that this could be true. It seems that we have all heard that “martial law” had been declared and that we have been living under it for most, if not all, of our lives. The effect is an erosion of our Constitutional protections. Since March 9, 1933, the United States has been Has done extensive research into the matter.
