    "Mr. John F. Ford, former manager of the Single Tax Courier, now of the Aeromatic Power co., Baltimore, has been deeply interested in Fairhope from its inception. Replying to a recent letter asking if he could not furnish us on memberhship account one of his win eingines to pump water for our village, he says: 'I am not yet in position to give you a definite answer regarding your proposition for a windmill at Fairhope, but it is probable that later on I can arrange to furnish you one on terms satisfactory. Why any genuine single-taxer should fail to heartily approve the good work of the Fairhope Industrial Associatoin, is past my comprehension. It has been a source of regret to me that I have not been in position to render valuable assistance to the most sensible and worthy colonization scheme that ever came to my knowledge. I assure you that I will lose no opportunity to do whatever I can to advance the interests of Fairhope'."

FRONTIER ...
  • 1940 - Founded by James Busey, in Wasilla, Alaska
  • 1940 - Article, "C.C. Graduate Editor,"
    The Freeman, March:

    "INDEPENDENCE, Alaska -- When Georgism bears fruit it seems to be particularly lush, as can be witnessed in the first copy of Frontier, a 32 page magazine devoted to Alaska and territorial problems. But what lended Frontier particular interest is the fact that it was conceived and prdouced by Jim Busey, a correspondence course graduate. Mr. Busey is a vindicator of our correspondence course, for here in the pages of Frontier are analyses and interpretations of matters pertaining to Alaska done with an incisive Georgist point-of-view. The Frontier sells for $2.00 a year."
