"We
have long since ceased to be active in the Georgist movement:
not because we have less esteem for the ideas of Henry George,
but because we have felt the movement was more of a personal
cult than a scientific effort. I have been wondered whether
mankind deserves or even wants economic freedom, and the more
so during recent years, when the political trend seems to be
more and more toward government control and away from
individual freedom: this even in the USA, let alone other
countries with no tradition of personal freedom."

- 1917 - Letter, printed in Everyman,
October 1917, regarding the division within the Single Tax
movement over the campaign for a land tax in California to fund
all public goods and services:
I am in full
sympathy with The Great Adventure campaign -- is it is the
real thing. The substitute offered by James and his followers
will not command support, and I know they have no trade with
the Socialists, and what they want is to found the work on
false principles. How any singletaxer can have anything to do
with them is beyond my comprehension.
... Tax reform has been tried
since the days of Ham Arabbie who announced it in a code of
laws of Babylor 2300 years before Christ. But the Single tax
(another name for free land) is of more recent origin and
there is but one form of it.

and the job. What we advocate is to free the earth. When we hold
conventions it is to tell people who come what we are after. Let
us confine our discussions to preaching the quaity of
opportunity."
