TY - ABST T1 - Letters from New America; or an Attempt at Practical Socialism Y1 - 1900 A1 - Clark Edmund Persinger (b. 1873) KW - Male author AB -

Detailed socialist eutopia. Everyone is employed by the government and all property is public. Advancement is through the civil service and complaints about service limits such advancement. Slums removed and good and varied housing built. Cities are all mid-size to combine the advantages of city and country living. Churches are not regulated, and there is a free press as well as government sponsored newspapers. Public education from kindergarten through college and then three years of technical training. Stress on individual variety and the need to keep the system flexible to take this into account.
