Jay, the son of the first Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme court, was a noted attorney and staunch abolitionist. He "castigated the federal government's complicity in the crime of slavery. by contrasting actual federal involvement in slavery with the constitutionally required minimal involvement. He also contrasted the gratuitous complicity with slavery with a vision of what the national government might permissibly do against slavery. Most of Jay 's positions on congressional or executive power were well within the mainstream of legal thought of the day." **PRICE JUST REDUCED! JUN2C/W148 Rear

pp. x, 258. Front endpaper torn. 8vo. Original full brown cloth binding. John Atkinson Hobson (1858-1940) was an English economist and critic of imperialism, widely popular as a lecturer and writer. "One of Hobson's lesser known works which provides evidence that he remained a lifelong Cobdenite. He was assisted by Sidney Webb in the 'preparation and correction' of the book. Hobson condemns indirect taxes which in his view are 'generally worse than worthless for purposes of revenue, producing little, costing much, and interfering with the general productivity of industry and commerce'. In Part I Hobson 'sets forth the principles upon which the tax-system should be reformed in order to provide for debt - charges and reconstruction; and in Part II discusses measures of 'emergency finance', especially the capital levy."
