We have thousands of American soldiers have now. Personally, I have not met any. I hope that when I do I shall find a Single Taxer, perhaps from your school. It is glorious to be in the fight that aims in a peaceful, simple and efficient way to secure to every person his equal right to the Gifts of Nature."

Classes commenced at both centers, later extending to Strathfield, now showing promise of extension to other localities. Students who have completed the various courses are being trained as class leaders and instructors, A.G. Huie, Secretary of the League, who also conducted classes, was very helpful in the work. Arrangements are being made to link the Schools in all States into an "Australian School of Social Science."

It is contemplated to hold short "after business" and "lunch hour" classes to cater to those who are unable to attend in the evenings. Correspondence courses are also available."

    The Standard, 15 August. Quoted:
    "On the table as we write is a certificate from Professor Inagaki, of Melbourne University, which informs the reader that Kokusai Bunka Shinkokai (the Society for International Cultural Relations) has awarded our secretary a prize for an essay on 'Japan-Australia Relations'. The prize is in the shape of an exquisite Shippo (cloisonne-ware) vase of Japanese workmanship. ...The essay, which shows not only a desire that friendship should exist between Australia and Japan, but also between both countries and all the world, closes with these words: 'We do not flatter ourselves tht we have nothing to learn from Japan, but we warn those Japanese who value freedom and liberty to be careful while copying what is good and useful in Australia, they do not copy her in her policy of placing hindrances in the path of trade, or, worse still, that of allowing economic rent to be privately owned'."
