A repetitive letter from George L. Lloyd, a self-identified Jehovah’s Witness, who writes that land is a gift from God and all rents are theft. Encourages the recipient to forego paying of all rents until they pay for public needs instead of private profits, after which can be abolished “the terrible burden of taxation now driving the people to destruction.” Label on the envelope encourages tenants to stop rent payments and join the Anti-Tax League.
