We shall not only humbly, yet also proudly and exultingly submit ourselves 0 that PRACTICAL PRIN-
CIPLE. We shall be able to express this PRINCIPLE in the simple terms of our economic and political life
and institutions. We shall be able to permit this PRINCIPLE to work in our economk and political _ life and
institutions. That which is fundamentally sound is the most practical. Any idea that is not practical is worth-
less. Ideas that are most fundamentally sound have the most practical value.

decisively depart all current aims and methods of the usual attempts to bring about economic
order. It is because @™ this departure, and only because of this departure, that we shall be able to say
thing sympathetic, cpbsohng and constructive to restore our bodies, minds, souls and our society. Should w
try to do it otherwis® We would only find ourselves fallen into the weary round of earnest beatings in the alf,
or of insincere presumption and pretense of knowing.
Do you still wish to know who are the sponsors of this organization? Then seek to know this PRINCI-
PLE, PRACTICAL ESSENCE. Until we understand and use the ESSENCE of the PRACTICAL, we do
not know the SPONSOR of this work—even though we be told the names of ourselves who are the servant
sponsors of SPONSOR NUMBER ONE. When we, the members of all the Solution for All Clubs, have be-
come conclusively confident that the so-called sponsors humbly and gladly subordinate themselves to SPON-
- GORING PRINCIPLE; when we, al! the members of all the Clubs, have become conclusively conhdent that we
do al! subordinate ourselves to that PRINCIPLE, and are conclusively confident that we are ready, willing and
able to apply this PRINCIPLE, or to permit this PRINCIPLE to apply ITSELF, then the names of the spon-
‘ gors will be revealed.
We now apologize to PRINCIPLE, and to Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, and to the American People, if we
have appeared to exalt the person of Col. Lindbergh above PRINCIPLE. All men who are, and shall be con-
mected with this movement shall be capable of doing so only in so far as they have identified themselves with
MOVING SUBSTANCE and POWER. We believe that Col. Lindbergh is capable, and will become capabie,
of throwing himself with others into ESSENTIAL ACTION in our social living and being. Col Lindbergh
bas placed himsel! before the public. He remains there. We of these Clubs continue to see him there. We rec-
ommend to you the article entitled “Lindbergh Today” im Scribner's Commentator for Augusi. This article
appeared entirely independently of this Club. It is, of course, impossible in 1940 to put anybody into the pres-
idency on any but the usual run of issues. Our concrete objectives will reveal themselves step by step as we
approach 1944, and before.
Be patient! We have an economic and political system concretely prepared. We are not presenting that
system now. Since it is for a short time from now, it is not for today. Therefore, today we must know what
we know or can know now, and do what we must do and can do now. As we do in the successive nows what we
must do, we shall find that each thing done is already a part of that which is the culminating plan that has not
been presented. More and more we shall see it arising out of the natural, logical, steps we accomplish.
Trusting. dear friend of the Club, that we have for this particular now fully carried out our obligations

In accordance with our practice of noting the vital truth in all ¢deas, practices and pr ms, we recom-
‘mend, for careful study, the articles, in the Commonwealth magazine for September, on the Finished Products
Single Tax, and on the Ad Valorem Property Tax and what it is doing in our system. These articles arose
imdependentiy of our Club. We urge you at Jeast to keep these subjects in mind in order in the future to note
their essentially close relation within the inclusive objective order we shall present.
Our November letter will be primarily an organization letter. It will be devoted to give you some simp|
cules and proceedure for establishing yourselves as clubs in the Solution for All organization. The letter wil
also outline the first of our practical steps in the building ap of our economic and political structure. The No
vember letter will be very important. Bo not miss becoming an active worker in this movement at once. I
for any reason you fail to get the November letter, be sure to notify us. '
Begin at once to get a number of our letters already issued, and to distribute them; and you will find in
the next letter how ye ve thereby already established a Ciub. If you have not received our August-Septembe:
fetter, do not fail to fOr it. It contains many full statements on the fundamental attitude of this
ization—on how to tfath in capitalism, the truth in communism, and the truth in totalitarianism;
how to make them ole truth. If you have not circulated last month’s letter, then send it out with
one. Send at icast t hb jetter. Take it upon yourselves to send them to those progressive individuals
groups you wish to ¢, or that you think will organize themselves.
The price of these letters is one cent (Ic) each for one hundred or more, one and a half cent (1c) eac”
for ten (10) to ninety nine (99), and three cents (3c) each for any otrmber less than ten (10).
Act now and everywhere in doing the fullest and broadest and soundest things that can be done nov
Tauterest al! people, the press, radio, forum, and congress.
Sincerely yours,
Chairman of the Committee,
