Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Dog and the Child and the Ancient Sailor Man
HE world is full of radical talk; reaction aries, conservatives, progressives, insurgents, socialists, and anarchists are all shouting with brazen voices that the people must rule-whether they want to or not. The initiative, referendum and recall have been advocated so vociferously that many perfectly contented citizens who, be tween campaigns, forget that there is such a thing as a government, are now ready to accept these additional responsibilities in the same spirit that one purchases literature - in order to get rid Of the book-agent: but there is one very impor tant, very insistent, and very individualistic ele ment in Society which is still kept in the hateful condition of legislation without representation - to say nothing of the initiative, referendum and recall.
