Niagara-on-Lake, Feb. 21, 1956.
Dear Sir:
We held a Social Credit meeting on Monday February 13th. This is the first Social Credit meeting in our district. And we are trying to get organized in Lincoln County. We had Mr. George McLeod, M. P., from British Columbia as our guest speaker.
I was given two copies of your Social Credit paper (January and February 1956). Would you please send me two dozen (24) copies of the February 1956 issue. I know that it would be of benefit to educate new members in regard to the Social Credit platform. We would appreciate any advice you could give us from your experience in organizing Social Credit units.
Yours truly,
JOHN J. POLLOCK

Dear Sir:
A few days ago, someone asked: "Supposing the Douglas proposals established (a democracy of consumers served by an aristocracy of producers), would not those doing the work resent the fact that they did all the work while many others lived at ease?" And this question has cropped up before.
As it would probably be some time before it was realized that many of the others occupied their leisure time in creative work which ultimately would be of benefit to the community and much of which would be paid for, it might be as well to attempt to answer this question by observing what happens at a picnic. Only a few people do all the work, yet seldom, unless they overdo it year after year, do they become as perturbed as was Martha. Their only reward is the appreciation of their associates, many of whom are comparatively strangers, and the satisfaction which comes from serving others to their satisfaction.
The atmosphere, in a community that was making use of its own social credit instead of allowing someone else to walk off with it, would be much the same, the only difference being that those providing the services would be comparatively highly paid and some of the others, might wish they were able enough to handle similar work.
The important point to keep in mind is that the table is overflowing — there is lots for all – gluts of wheat - gluts of butter — wide open spaces — plenty of lumber — plenty of machine power — plenty of manpower. All that is needed is a few figures properly entered in a book and a just and honest money system open at all times to public audit and inspection. As Douglas wrote:
"The industrial machine is a lever, continuously being lengthened by progress, which enables the burden of Atlas to be lifted with ever-increasing ease. As the number of men required to work the lever decreases, so the number of men set free to lengthen it increases."
Yours truly,
K. L. McCUAIG
In this special issue of the journal, MICHAEL, the reader will discover who are the true rulers of the world. We discuss that the current monetary system is a mechanism to control populations. The reader will come to understand that "crises" are created and that when governments attempt to get out of the grip of financial tyranny wars are waged.
An Efficient Financial System, written by Louis Even, is for the reader who has some understanding of the Douglas Social Credit monetary reform principles. Technical aspects and applications are discussed in short chapters dedicated to the three propositions, how equilibrium between prices and purchasing power can be achieved, the financing of private and public production, how a Social Dividend would be financed, and, finally, what would become of taxes under a Douglas Social Credit economy. Study this publication to better grasp the practical application of Douglas' work. 
Reflections of African bishops and priests after our weeks of study in Rougemont, Canada, on Economic Democracy, 2008-2018
The Social Dividend is one of three principles that comprise the Social Credit monetary reform which is the topic of this booklet. The Social Dividend is an income granted to each citizen from cradle to grave, with- out condition, regardless of employment status.
Economic Democracy is a book to explain Social Credit in lessons presented in logical order so it may be easier to the reader to grab the main principles of Social Credit rapidly and somehow easily.
In This Age of Plenty deals with Social Credit, but it does not exhaust the topic. Social Credit principles address social and political matters, as well as, or even more so, than economics and will put civilization on a new course.
From Debt to Prosperity outlines briefly the economic analysis and constructive proposals known as Social Credit.
