Letter (WCP2723.2613)

Temporary Address until further notice:

Fairdene,

The Downs.

Coulsdon, Surrey.

January 2nd. 1908.

Dear Sir,

Many thanks for your kind letter. May I say that I am fully in agreement with what you sat? The rapid rises in the early part of my scale are obviously unjust. All I can claim for them is that they are very much more just than the existing system, and why I do not publicly advocate any greater change is simply that there will be the greatest difficulty in getting even my scale accepted. So far, the Treasury regard my proposals as too ideally just for consideration. Whatever, then, would they say if I went further?

We hope to get within a few years a stopped scale in the form of my suggestion, and then to work at it in the director of a greater degree of justice.

May I take this opportunity of offering you my personal thanks for your wonderful life's work.

Yours sincerely | L. G. Chiozza Money [signature]

Dr. Alfred Russell[sic] Wallace
