"It is my

presents a chance of success for the single tax. ...If you are a
lover of justice, if you believe that man, as a land-animal, has
a certain natural right to the land, andif you believe that
land-monopoly is not conducive to the highest development of the
race, take advantage of the California Great Adventure and do
your share to help it win."
- 1933 - The Pitchfork is in its 26th
year of publication, with a circulation of 16,000. Quote: "To
be a Single Taxer you've got to have religion on the land
question."
