DIR. Lyman Abbot Believes Man Should

BOSTON, Jan. 26.-Dr. Lyman Alb

he, and hope it will be Differed, con-
lrolled and operated by the United

ing when, where. for whom and for
what wages he chooses. He said:
Not for an instant In a free state
would the people tolerate legislation al
lowing this thing But It is much worse
when enforced by the laws Of labor
guilds. Thus it is the first duty Of
society to protect every man in his ma
tural right 10 labor and enjoy the prod
uct Of his labors."
DR.. Abbott then explained the sim
gle tax theory and advocated it strong
ly. because, he said. it taxes only un-
improved land not the fruits Of mans
own labor.
1T takes nothing from industry nor
does it involve conhscation. for it will
not come about. if at all, by instant
action"

possessions rather than on expendi-

expenditures means that those Of
