MRS. FELS ON ZANGWILL’S DEATH

Mrs. Mary Fels, the well known Single Tax advocate and leader in Palestine reconstruction work, commenting on Zangwill’s death, stated:

“Israel and Edith Zangwill have been my personal friends these many years and I could say much, very much, out of my affection and admiration for them, but I cannot, or rather, I will not, at this time. I cannot speak of him otherwise than as alive, very much alive, as indeed he will always be.

“I am grateful for what Mr. Louis Marshall has said about him. It speaks for all of us and does it so well.”
