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)

It is only a question of fully acquainting all the voters with the true meaning of the amendment. Californians are opposed to land monopoly and pretty genrally know that single tax will cure it. With the world's shortage of food and our knowledged that food can only come from land open to use, the only thing that could defeat us would be an empty war chest."

1918 - Letter, Everyman, March, in which he wrote: "It seems to me that the Great Adventure in California has sized up the situation as it is, and not as we would like it to be; that, philosophically and with rare acumen, they re taking advantage of the 'psychologic moment' to do the one thing which all singletaxers shold now earnestly and unitedly do -- utilize the present stressed conditions to apply the only possible harmonious and lasting remedy to the cause of them. If the stressed economic conditions which produced, and are being intensified by, this war do not result in the adoption of single tax as a means of opening the land, there will be no escape, I fear, from industrial revolutions both here and abroad."

Arcese,
Anthony
Massachusetts
(Newtonville)
19-- - Introduced to Henry George's book Progress and Poverty by accident, when he was a guest in the home of Bruno Eichert of Jackson Heights, New York. A relative had loaned the book to Mr. Eichert, and Anthony Arcese expressed an interest in the book, which was passed on to him. He later wrote: "Read Progress and Poverty and see to it that more people with conscience will also read it. It will burn out a lot of fog that obstructs clear vision of the socio-economic problems which confront us. Possibly it will place within vision and understanding the reminder of the Stoic Emperor: 'We are made for cooperation -- like feet, like hands, like eyelids, like the rows of the upper and lower teech.' And the maxim that 'that alone is wise which is just; that alone is enduring which is right.'"
19-- - Book, The Conservative Conscience, a reply to Barry Goldwater's book with similar title
