A manufacturer em- ploying 1, 000 hands will be promptly brought to his senses by the loss of 50. It is, comparatively speaking, a small balance of labour, of money, or trade that makes the difference to wages, interest, and profit. In the second place, I freely ac- knowledge that there is nothing in what I have proposed that would give the beggar access to the land. The reform that I am proposing is not a superficial bit of quackery that is going to make the beggar rich and constitute him a ca...pitalist all at once, but a fundamental reform that will take time to work out. I do not claim for it any power to cure all diseases at once, but gradually and surely to sap their sources. Nothing would be more dangerous to the cause than to teach the people to ex- pect great things all at once ; it would tempt them, when dis- appointed, to lose faith in principles and endeavour to hasten matters by illegitimate means. All I claim for land nationalisa- tion, as I have advocated it, is that it would provide equal natural opportunities for all, and by this means would gradually rear a race of men who would be able to take fuller and fuller advantage of those opportunities.
