Daniels,
Josephus |

(Raleigh) |
- 1921 - Statement delivered before the
American Society of Naval Engineers: "Has
not the time come when oil and coal and water power shall be
nationalized? The ownership of God-created essentials should
belong to all the people." From the New York
Times, 19 December
- 1926 - Letter, regarding Henry George, Land
and Freedom, September-October. Quote: "You
are quite right in believing that I had a profound admiration
for Henry George. I recall to this day the thrill tht his early
books gave me. While never quite persuaded that the remedy he
offered was practical, I always felt that he had stimulated
interest and thought along lines which must bear fruit in a
juster scheme of taxation and his awakening of the masses of
men, was the beginning of better things."

fundamental principle of economics is that what a man produces
by his efforts should be his, to enjoy and dispose of as he
pleases, and that what the community produces by community
efforts should belong to those who have aided in its creation.
It does seem reasonable that a substantial share of the land
values created by public initiative and investment should be
drawn upon by government through a higher tax on these values
than is imposed on other ratables."
