"In the 1941 year book of
Yeshiva College, 'Masmid', several pages re devoted to an article by Graduate Hyman J. Lakes
on'Henry George and a Balanced Economy'. Mr Lakes concludes his article with the following
paragraph:
"As a brilliant and able exponent of social reform, the position of
George is secure. His work is a ringing denunciation of the prevailing order of inequality
and class conflict, and is a challenge that civilization cannot afford to ignore. To
thoughtful men it should be a source of renewed hope in the ability of mankind to solve
social and economic problems without resorting to the violation or
suppression of the rights cherished by the individual."
