This appears in the March-April, 1935 issue of Land and Freedom - Now called
Land and Liberty:

"The subject upon which I have been asked to address you is at
the root of every social and economic question. We have innumerable
organizations which are engaged in advocating specific social reforms
all most admirable. But they will all fail until the land question
has first been settled. There is no economic or social question which
is not at the bottom a land question. Land is essentially different
from every other material property. It is from the land that all
human needs are supplied, and if that original source is monopolized,
if there are a few individuals who can control that supply, then they
hold the destinies of the community in their hands."

LORD SNOWDEN in an address in London before the Women's
National Liberal Federation.
