A Biographical History of the Georgist Movement



“The grey heads and bald heads are in the majority. The problem that confronts those of us who want the torch held up in the future, is to fill up the ranks. In order to do that many things must be done, but we must not depend on the old or middle-aged. Somehow or other we must devise a way to reach the minds of the young people – when their minds are open, when they are ready for new truths.”

Mr. Rose, of Kansas City, Missouri (from a speech at the 1928 Henry George Foundation Congress, Chicago. Reprinted in: Land and Freedom, September-October 1928)

Replying to a recent letter asking if he could not furnish us on memberhship account one of his win eingines to pump water for our village, he says: 'I am not yet in position to give you a definite answer regarding your proposition for a windmill at Fairhope, but it is probable that later on I can arrange to furnish you one on terms satisfactory. Why any genuine single-taxer should fail to heartily approve the good work of the Fairhope Industrial Associatoin, is past my comprehension. It has been a source of regret to me that I have not been in position to render valuable assistance to the most sensible and worthy colonization scheme that ever came to my knowledge. I assure you that I will lose no opportunity to do whatever I can to advance the interests of Fairhope'."
