SECOND SPEECH OF XENOPHON ZOLOTAS
IN WASHINGTON D.C. IN 1959.
As promised we are going to publish the second speech of
Professor Xenophon Zolotas in the annual meeting, Board of
Governonrs, Wathington D.C. on October 2, 1959.
I personally chose that date which marks exactly 56 years to the
date.
Here is how he addressed his audience
and keep in mind that he spoke to an American audience using
only Greek words.. That is the power of the Hellenic language.
THE SPEECH
Kyrie,
It is Zeus' anathema on our epoch and the heresy of our
economic method and policies that we should agonize the
Skylla of nomismatic plethora and the Charybdis of economic
anaemia. It is not my idiosyncracy to be ironic or sarcastic but
my diagnosis would be that politicians are rather cryptopletho
rists.
Although they emphatically stigmatize nomistmatic plethora,
they energize it through their tactics and proctices.
Our policies should be based more on economic and less on
political criteria. Our gnomon has to be a metron between
eonomic strategic and philanthropic scopes. In an epoch
characterrized by monopolies, oligopolies, monopolistic anta-
gonism nd polymorphous inelasticities, our policies have to be
more orthological, but this sould not be metamorphosed into
plethorophobia, which is endemic among academic econo-
mists. Nomismatic symmetry should not antagonize economic
acme. A greater hormonization between the practices of the
economic, nomismatic archons is basic.
Parallel to this we have to synchronize and harmonize more
and more our economic and nomismatic policies panethnically
These scopes are more practicable now, when the prognostics
of the political and economic barometer are halcyonic.
The history of our didimus organization on this sphere has
been didatic and their gnostic practices will always be a tonic
to the polyonymous and idiomorphous ethnical economies.
Therefore, I sympathize, although not without criticism one or
two themes with the apostles and the hierarchy of our organs
in their zeal to program orthodox economic and nomismatic
policies. I apologize for having tyranized you with my Hellenic
phraseology.
In my epilogue I emphasize my eulogy to the philoxenous
aytochtons of this cosmopolitan metropolis and my encomium
to you Kyrie, the stenographers.
