Dear Mr. President, I asked your leave to dedicate this book to you, nof because of private friendship nor out of personal regard, though these would have been reasons amply sufficient. A gain, I did not ask your leave because you represent the nation which, next to my-own, I love and admire the nation which divides with Britain the allegiance of the English-speaking race. Though I am proud that this page should bear the name of one who sits in the seat of Washington and of Lincoln, it was not any touch of pride that moved me. I asked to lay this book in your hand because I felt that such a dedication would be in the strictest and truest sense appropriate. You are not only one of the most convinced and most powerful opponents of Socialism living, but, what is more, you oppose Socialism for the right reasons or, at any rate, for what I deem to be the right reasons.
