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)

1918 - Letter, Everyman, March, in which he wrote: "From first hand observation of the feeling of the people [in California]; from the recent happy healing of the old differences between The Great Adventure and the Equity Tax League, the withdrawal of their bill, and the joining of forces in the campaign work; from the vigorous, intense, yet perfectly practicable manner in which the campaign is being waged, largely as a war measure to increase the production of food -- form all this I argue that the Single Tax Amendment cannot be defeated by the land speculators this time, if The Great Adventure campaign is at all decently financed. ...There may never again be such a favorable joining of circumstances for the immediate application of single tax as there is in California today."
1918 - Letter, Everyman, April, in which he commented on the life of Herman Kuehn, who had recently died.
