tax land pirates.
sixth. we common folk had thought
that the shirks. who try 70 cover up
their personal property. ought so mucn
the more TO be taxed but the simpncity
OF letting up entirely on those who try

doubtless TO the perfect simplicity or TINS

theory OF land piracy.
Seventh. IL had somehow appeared 20
us common people that both franchises
and personal property ought 10 pear
more of the burdens OF taxation In con-
sideration OF the protection and benent
they receive through good roads, poice,
etc. But We now see that what Is most
presslngly needed is that theory of clear
and simple land tax piracy to force we
poor devils who own our humble homes
TO sell out because OF increased taxation.
In conclusion. IL reminds US OF sne man
who was asked by his boarding mistress :
to settle for the last months board, and
as the boarder demurred, the lady added.
II can't afford to board you for moth

boarder. then sell out to some one VINO

taxes become too heavy for US humble
home owners, we shall have the gracious
privilege OF selling out to some wealthy
man who can AFFORD to pay the taxes.
Truly. the. theory Of single tax is sim
plicity itself.

SINGLE LAND TAX POLICY


Editor Providence News:
Mr.. George ID. Liddell says truly that
"the single tax theory is simplicity 1T
self" ~~~
First OF all. In its extreme simplicity
Il would tax land so high. so outrage
ously. that from half 10 three-fourths Of
our wage earners. who own their homes.
would be forced TO sell out. For one
OF the hardest things the bread winner
has To do Is TO pay his taxes. while one
OF the easiest for the wealthy 10 do Is
to pay the tax collector. and would be
yet easier under single land tax.
Second. Just like the free trader. who
rants about the manufacturer not need
ing protection and has nothing 70 say
needing protection for our home market
I'm order 20 be supplied with employment,
even 90 the single tax land pirates talk
glibly about corporation land. Yet have
not one word TO say I'm defense OF the
hard d-working bread winner. who Is taxed
go heavily now for his home. and would
be obliged 10 pay far more taxes under
the single tax land piracy.
Third Hon. George III. Utter's sarcasm,
regarding his knowledge of the single
tax. seems TO be one OF those ironic Jokes
which requires quite n spell for some peo-
pie 10 get through their skulls
Fourth. the theory of taxing a COM

farmers. who own our humble homes. II
about the most simple form OF land pi-
racy ever propounded by theorist
Fifth. because IL r. difficult 20 ind n

tax him IL he r. n millionaire is another
single tar theory. whose wonderful sim

who own our simple homes. We are not
