The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 56

Literature

Literature.

In view of the last General Election, early preparation was made to extend the influence of the Society's literature. A pamphlet, entitled "State Tenants versus Freeholders," was written by our President, showing the great political advantages to all, and especially to small Freeholders and the agricultural labourer, of Land Nationalisation over so called "Free Trade in Land." Two leaflets were also prepared. The first is entitled the "Six Points of the People's Land Charter," being a popular abridgment of the Society's programme. The second is a "Resolution," being a statement, with authorities appended, of the great fact that the absolute ownership of land by a subject, is now, and has always been, expressly denied by the law of the country.

These publications, together with those already on our list, have been widely circulated. Altogether, upwards of 310,000 leaflets and tracts have been distributed during the twelve months.
