- Letter, Everyman, April, in which he wrote:
"One matter of vital importance in
The Great Adventure program is that it clearly sees the real cause
of war and proposes to abolish war by removing the cause. To abolish
the privilege of holding land idle will not only win the war against
special privilege in Europe, but all over the world -- for special
privilege knows no country or nationality. Like the pirates of old
it flies the black flag and is the people's enemy everywhere. We
should concentrate all our efforts on California now, where the
opportunity seems to favorble for success." |
