One night. about so years ago. anyone sitting in
the railroad station in Rochester N. Y. might have
witnessed strange scene. Il was along toward
midnight. The New York Express for Cleveland
stopped for a few minutes al Rochester. man goi

started Louis LipskY on the track
which he has been travelling
since.
Lipsky h ad written Cowen
about job. Cowen was impress
ed by Lipsky's letters, but didn't
want to make a final decision
until he had seen Lipsky. Since
he intended to make a trip to
Cleveland, Cowen asked Lipsky
to meet him at the Rochester rail-
road station and it was there that
he gave him the signal to ''go
ahead" to New York.
LipskY has travelled far since
that time and made US all do a
little travelling with him. for that
matter. Essentially that's what
leader is. He makes you get up on
the bus or train and take the
journey with him. He sells you
tour.
Lipsky was a pioneer in help
ing sell Zionism and a Jewish
way of life to American Jewry.
He was new type of leader in
Jewish life. He was American
born. He came not of the German
Jews, who dominated the scene
at the time. Lie low and say
nothing about being Jewish,
seemed to be their slogan. Israel
Zangwill once said that the trou-
BILE about lying low and saying
nothing was that someone would
step on you then.
LipskY helped raise the banner
of Zionism. but it was more than
that. He worked at translating
stories Of Peretz and Shalom
Aleichem. showing the Jews that
in their Yiddish heritage there
were pearls. To lose them was not
only a loss to JewrY but a dis
service to America. America has
right TO expect that all Of her
sons will contribute their best to
its culture.
When LipSky came on the scene,
America occupied position some
what analogous to Israel today.
The thousands oppressed turned
their eyes to America as the land
of salvation. The Jews were COM
ing here, as they now go to Israel.
The two greatest migrations are
not unrelated. If the first had not
occurred, probably the second
could not either. If there had been
no American Jewry, doubt whe-
ther Israel could have been re-
established.
A man who knows LipskY once
remarked TO me with some aston
ishment that when he had spoken
to him about an historic event Of
ESQ years ago. LipskY poo-pooed
the matter. who cares" said Lip
sky. THAT happened hundreds of

pressure to get the owners of the
large estates to make present of
some of the land TO the landless
farmers. South America. too. is
plagued with a similar condition.
We hear much Of the "latafundia."
a term which comes down from
Roman times. One of the greatest
Of the Romans said that the fall
of the Roman Empire was due to
the large landed estates.
Where there are these large
landed estates, the farmer is re-
duced to share cropper and
peon, and this is not only bad for
him, but it is bad for commerce
and industry, for the share crop
per has no money to pay for in
dustrial and commercial products,
so that the wheels of industry
don't turn. The land, in the final
sense, is the seed from which not
only vegetables and fruit grow,
but everything.
In the United States. the evil
has not been so blatant. because
there was a wider distribution of
land. for a variety of reasons.
There was the Homestead Act.
which provided that any one
could get 100 acres of land by
settling on it.
There was lot of crooked work
in connection with the Homestead
Act and other public grants of
land, but nevertheless great areas
were settled by the homesteaders,
and this was not only important
to them, but to thousands and
even millions of others. The rural
areas indirectly built up the cities.
The homesteaders, in a very real
sense, were builders also of Chi
cago, Omaha and Minneapolis.
The Henry George single tax
movement pivoted about the same
idea. It was no wonder that Henry
George wrote brilliant essay on
Moses. George wanted TO make it
impossible for anyone TO keep
more land than he actually work
ed by putting heavy tax on the
land. No one then could afford to
keep land idle for speculation. The
result. he thought. would be TO
make land so cheap that everyone
could get a piece. The day Of the
share cropper and tenant farmer
would be over. There would be
cheap land for building. Rents
would come down and there
would be more money for the pur-
chase of industrial commodities.

If we look back at the places
where in recent years. there have
been the most violent upheavals.
we will find that they were the
places whera the great landed es-
tates predominated. In Czarist
Russia. some individual noblemen
owned private estates so huge as

states of the U. S. The same feudal
conditions prevailed in China. and
India today is confronted by a

'The earth is the Lords" says
the Bible, and the laws of Moses
