	CLAY HENRY Property and Inheritance Daily News Ltd, U.K. 1923. First Edition, Paper Covered Boards. Good Plus Plus/No Jacket. From "The New Way" Series No 15. 30 pages, size 7.5 inches tall by 5 inches, in paper covered boards. ' In these post-war years all accepted political doctrines are undergoing challenge, and a vast number of intelligent people have lost the anchorage of political principle, and are drifting in bewilderment on a sea of conflicting ideas. The pamphlets of which this is one are designed as a contribution towards clarifying this confusion. They are issued under the auspices of the Council of the Liberal Summer Schools. But they are not intended to preach a rigid party orthodoxy. Their aim is constructive study and enquiry rather than dogmatic assertion or acrid denunciation. Some of the writers are not even professed adherents of the Liberal party. But all have been invited to write because they have given special study to the subjects with which they have to deal. And all are united by two beliefs: the first, a deep dissatisfaction with many aspects of the existing order, at home and abroad ; the second, a conviction that these evils cannot be cured by the glib repetition of sweeping formula, or by violence or class-conflict, or by mere destruction, but only by hard thinking and good will '.

	DARVAS , NICOLAS Darvas System for Over the Counter Profits Lyle Stuart, US, 1971. First US Edition, Hard Cover. Fine [Better Than Very Good]/Good Plus. 144 pages, size 8.5 inches tall by 5.75 inches, with an index.' This unique over-the-counter guide is the first lucid, understandable, and practical treatise on the workings of America's largest marketplace-the over-the-counter stock market. Nicolas Darvas is more than a successful investor and stock-market observer. He embarked in 1968 on a clinical study of the price action and make-up inside the over-the-counter market. And this book is a result of his findings. Nicolas Darvas not only reports on the techniques, strategies, and maneuvers of OTC professionals, but he also presents a highly readable-and extremely cogent-series of suggestions that investors-small and large can apply to their future stock-market approach. Mr. Darvas first discovered the potential for profits in the over-the-counter market when he made a killing in Bruce. Never before has any Wall Street professional or student of the market compiled as useful and meaningful a book about the over-the-counter market. Here you will see-probably for the first time-the following: How to dispose of a big block of OTC stock without disturbing the market How to acquire a large portion in an un listed stock without running the price up How to profit-with leverage-in government debt instruments, puts and calls, and margin trading : How to beat the shell game; When to buy and sell the hot stocks; How to make fortunes from penny stocks; The truth about mutual funds; Over-the-counter dynamics and much more. Every investor will find this book not only a valuable reference and guidebook but also one of the most entertaining reports ever written on a mysterious section of stock-market trading. NICOLAS DARVAS, author of How I Made $2 Million in the Stock Market, considers that Wall Street is nothing ; more than a huge gambling casino, bristling with dealers, croupiers and touts, as he explains in his highly successful second book, Wall Street: The Other Las Vegas. Until a few years ago, Mr. Darvas was one half of the internationally acclaimed dance team, Darvas and Julia. Now that he has devoted himself to the world of finance, he appears to be a human computer, who invariably knows what not to do to keep one step ahead of Wall Street stock market manipulations. Hungarian by birth, Mr. Darvas trained as an economist at the University of Budapest. Reluctant to remain in Hungary until either the Nazis or the Russians took over, he fled at the age of 23 with a forged exit visa and fifty pounds sterling to stove off hunger in Constantinople, Turkey. Some time later, he met Julia, who be came his partner in a dancing team that was to become one of the most successful acts in Europe and the United States. Growing restless with his dancing career, Niicolas felt the need to put his head to work as well as his feet; so without knowing a "put and call" from a bump and grind, he made a timid step into Wall "Street. In a dazzling 18-month sortie in the stock market, using his "Box System," he made more than $2,000,000. His first best seller, How I Made $2 Million in the Stock Market, which will be the basis of a forthcoming Broadway musical, had such a devastating effect on the market, that the rules of the Stock Exchange had to be revised. His most recent book, Wall Street: The Other Las Vegas, put him at the top of the most hated list of every stockbroker in the country. An international traveller, Mr. Darvas maintains apartments at The Dorchester in London and The George V in Paris, but his heart belongs to Wall Street.

	FAWCETT HENRY Free Trade and Protection : An Inquiry Into the Causes Which Have Retarded the General Adoption of Free Trade Since Its Introduction Into England Macmillan, U.K. 1878. Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. 173 pages and a 36 page catalogue to rear. "In the autumn of last year I delivered at Cambridge a course of Lectures on Free Trade and Protection. One of the chief objects I had in view was to endeavour to explain the causes which have retarded the progress of Free Trade, and which have enabled Protectionists still to occupy so strong a position on the Continent, in America, and in many of our Colonies. I first thought of publishing these Lectures almost in the form in which they were delivered; but I afterwards came to the conclusion that it would be better, for many reasons, to adopt a different arrangement, and I have consequently divided the book into six chapters. I have had occasion frequently to refer to Mr. Frederick Martin's Statesman's Year Book, and I have also derived great assistance from the admirably-arranged Statistical Abstracts which are published annually by the Board of Trade. Whenever I have required additional information bearing on the subjects to which these Abstracts refer, it has always been most readily supplied to me by two gentlemen holding official positions at the Board of Trade -Mr. Edwin J. Pearson, and Mr. Robert Giffen, the well-known economist and statist. I desire here to acknowledge their kindness, and to offer them my sincere thanks. I also wish to say how much I appreciate the assistance I have derived from my wife, who has revised the book as it was passing through the press, and from my Secretary, Mr. F. J. Dryhurst, who has not only acted as my amanuensis, but who has constantly aided me in various ways, and has prepared a summary of contents, which I believe will prove useful for purposes of reference." Chapter headings on Protection Part One Bounties On Exports and Part Two Restraints On Imports, Free Trade And Reciprocity, The Arguements Of Protectionists, Commercial Depression, Commercial Treaties.

	HENDERSON FRED Monetary System in Relation to the Welfare State Henderson Society, U.K. 1955. Card Covers. Very Good/No Jacket. 46 pages, size 7.25 inches tall by 4.75 inches in card covers. ' Fred Henderson was one of the founder members of the Labour Party in 1902; and ever since then, in his many books and pamphlets, has been the accredited exponent of the basic welfare faith and purpose the Party exists to serve. But in this reasoned statement of the basic facts as to how the monetary system works out in regard to human welfare, Henderson makes a direct challenge to what the Labour Party did in its period of full power from 1945 to 1950. "I have to put it to you", he says, "that what we did in our five years of full power, faithfully as it honoured the pledges we gave to the nation, has not worked out as we expected and intended, and that the monetary policy we used for distributing our produced goods into human use was not only inconsistent with, but definitely and actively hostile, not only to our Socialist purposes, but to all the human welfare projects of so many men of goodwill who are not Socialists at all". The Henderson Society has been formed for the discussion and the critical scrutiny of the case thus presented in this book; and we invite, not only local constituency Labour Parties, trade unions and co-operative societies, but all individuals and organisations of people of goodwill who are seeking the effective way in which to secure such welfare, to become members of the Society, writing first to the Secretary at the address on the title page .'

' This book deals with a criticism on the Double Standard Money System (which must not be confounded with Bimetallism), as set forth in " Inter-Temporary Values" and " The Trust and the Gold Trust," which appeared in the Bankers' Magazine for September 1907, and draws attention to the very injurious consequences, to the industry and commerce of the nations, of the continuous violent fluctuations in prices, resulting, in ever increasing frequency, in the crises and the panics, which have prevailed throughout the West ever since the monetary legislation, of the period from 1871-73 to the present time, began to be effective, which has destroyed, for international monetary purposes, the use of one half of the world's supply of the precious metals. It also deals with the problem of Profit-Sharing as a means of reconciling the subjective divergencies of the particular and temporary interests of employers and employees which are, for practical purposes, more noticeable than the objective harmonies of their general and permanent interests, these being more obscure and remote from the immediate concerns of every-day life '.

	YAHUDA JOSEPH Bio-Economics Sir Isaac Pitman, U.K. 1938. First Edition, Hard Cover. Fine/Good Plus Plus. Dedicated and Signed By the Author. xx, 204 pages, size 7.5 inches tall by 5 inches, with an index. ' Because striking similarities exist between the main features of economic structure and the fundamental aspects of biology, and because any economic system influences the biological development of man for good or for evil. This book examines scientifically the extent and character of the influence exerted by politico-economic organization on racial development, and sets forth a new socio-biological theory. First, modern economic and social institutions and principles are analysed, and the relation between them and evolutionary laws and phenomena is established. Then Mr. Yahuda demonstrates that human society is divided from the point of view of privilege and cross-divided from the standpoint of fitness into four distinct categories, and discusses the major factors which cause migration from one category to another. From his lucid exposition it can be ascertained whether and how the quality of the human stock is improving or deteriorating, and it is possible to determine the causes of the rise and fall of nations and of the recurrence of revolutions and invasions. Science, history, and statistics are drawn upon to illustrate and to prove this remarkable thesis. Mr. Yahuda's conclusions as to the future of mankind will, command widespread interest among students of economics, politics, sociology, public health, anthropology, and jurisprudence, and all those concerned in the welfare of the British Empire '.

	CLAY HENRY Property and Inheritance Daily News Ltd, U.K. 1923. First Edition, Paper Covered Boards. Good Plus Plus/No Jacket. From "The New Way" Series No 15. 30 pages, size 7.5 inches tall by 5 inches, in paper covered boards. ' In these post-war years all accepted political doctrines are undergoing challenge, and a vast number of intelligent people have lost the anchorage of political principle, and are drifting in bewilderment on a sea of conflicting ideas. The pamphlets of which this is one are designed as a contribution towards clarifying this confusion. They are issued under the auspices of the Council of the Liberal Summer Schools. But they are not intended to preach a rigid party orthodoxy. Their aim is constructive study and enquiry rather than dogmatic assertion or acrid denunciation. Some of the writers are not even professed adherents of the Liberal party. But all have been invited to write because they have given special study to the subjects with which they have to deal. And all are united by two beliefs: the first, a deep dissatisfaction with many aspects of the existing order, at home and abroad ; the second, a conviction that these evils cannot be cured by the glib repetition of sweeping formula, or by violence or class-conflict, or by mere destruction, but only by hard thinking and good will '.

	DARVAS , NICOLAS Darvas System for Over the Counter Profits Lyle Stuart, US, 1971. First US Edition, Hard Cover. Fine [Better Than Very Good]/Good Plus. 144 pages, size 8.5 inches tall by 5.75 inches, with an index.' This unique over-the-counter guide is the first lucid, understandable, and practical treatise on the workings of America's largest marketplace-the over-the-counter stock market. Nicolas Darvas is more than a successful investor and stock-market observer. He embarked in 1968 on a clinical study of the price action and make-up inside the over-the-counter market. And this book is a result of his findings. Nicolas Darvas not only reports on the techniques, strategies, and maneuvers of OTC professionals, but he also presents a highly readable-and extremely cogent-series of suggestions that investors-small and large can apply to their future stock-market approach. Mr. Darvas first discovered the potential for profits in the over-the-counter market when he made a killing in Bruce. Never before has any Wall Street professional or student of the market compiled as useful and meaningful a book about the over-the-counter market. Here you will see-probably for the first time-the following: How to dispose of a big block of OTC stock without disturbing the market How to acquire a large portion in an un listed stock without running the price up How to profit-with leverage-in government debt instruments, puts and calls, and margin trading : How to beat the shell game; When to buy and sell the hot stocks; How to make fortunes from penny stocks; The truth about mutual funds; Over-the-counter dynamics and much more. Every investor will find this book not only a valuable reference and guidebook but also one of the most entertaining reports ever written on a mysterious section of stock-market trading. NICOLAS DARVAS, author of How I Made $2 Million in the Stock Market, considers that Wall Street is nothing ; more than a huge gambling casino, bristling with dealers, croupiers and touts, as he explains in his highly successful second book, Wall Street: The Other Las Vegas. Until a few years ago, Mr. Darvas was one half of the internationally acclaimed dance team, Darvas and Julia. Now that he has devoted himself to the world of finance, he appears to be a human computer, who invariably knows what not to do to keep one step ahead of Wall Street stock market manipulations. Hungarian by birth, Mr. Darvas trained as an economist at the University of Budapest. Reluctant to remain in Hungary until either the Nazis or the Russians took over, he fled at the age of 23 with a forged exit visa and fifty pounds sterling to stove off hunger in Constantinople, Turkey. Some time later, he met Julia, who be came his partner in a dancing team that was to become one of the most successful acts in Europe and the United States. Growing restless with his dancing career, Niicolas felt the need to put his head to work as well as his feet; so without knowing a "put and call" from a bump and grind, he made a timid step into Wall "Street. In a dazzling 18-month sortie in the stock market, using his "Box System," he made more than $2,000,000. His first best seller, How I Made $2 Million in the Stock Market, which will be the basis of a forthcoming Broadway musical, had such a devastating effect on the market, that the rules of the Stock Exchange had to be revised. His most recent book, Wall Street: The Other Las Vegas, put him at the top of the most hated list of every stockbroker in the country. An international traveller, Mr. Darvas maintains apartments at The Dorchester in London and The George V in Paris, but his heart belongs to Wall Street.

	FAWCETT HENRY Free Trade and Protection : An Inquiry Into the Causes Which Have Retarded the General Adoption of Free Trade Since Its Introduction Into England Macmillan, U.K. 1878. Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. 173 pages and a 36 page catalogue to rear. "In the autumn of last year I delivered at Cambridge a course of Lectures on Free Trade and Protection. One of the chief objects I had in view was to endeavour to explain the causes which have retarded the progress of Free Trade, and which have enabled Protectionists still to occupy so strong a position on the Continent, in America, and in many of our Colonies. I first thought of publishing these Lectures almost in the form in which they were delivered; but I afterwards came to the conclusion that it would be better, for many reasons, to adopt a different arrangement, and I have consequently divided the book into six chapters. I have had occasion frequently to refer to Mr. Frederick Martin's Statesman's Year Book, and I have also derived great assistance from the admirably-arranged Statistical Abstracts which are published annually by the Board of Trade. Whenever I have required additional information bearing on the subjects to which these Abstracts refer, it has always been most readily supplied to me by two gentlemen holding official positions at the Board of Trade -Mr. Edwin J. Pearson, and Mr. Robert Giffen, the well-known economist and statist. I desire here to acknowledge their kindness, and to offer them my sincere thanks. I also wish to say how much I appreciate the assistance I have derived from my wife, who has revised the book as it was passing through the press, and from my Secretary, Mr. F. J. Dryhurst, who has not only acted as my amanuensis, but who has constantly aided me in various ways, and has prepared a summary of contents, which I believe will prove useful for purposes of reference." Chapter headings on Protection Part One Bounties On Exports and Part Two Restraints On Imports, Free Trade And Reciprocity, The Arguements Of Protectionists, Commercial Depression, Commercial Treaties.

	HENDERSON FRED Monetary System in Relation to the Welfare State Henderson Society, U.K. 1955. Card Covers. Very Good/No Jacket. 46 pages, size 7.25 inches tall by 4.75 inches in card covers. ' Fred Henderson was one of the founder members of the Labour Party in 1902; and ever since then, in his many books and pamphlets, has been the accredited exponent of the basic welfare faith and purpose the Party exists to serve. But in this reasoned statement of the basic facts as to how the monetary system works out in regard to human welfare, Henderson makes a direct challenge to what the Labour Party did in its period of full power from 1945 to 1950. "I have to put it to you", he says, "that what we did in our five years of full power, faithfully as it honoured the pledges we gave to the nation, has not worked out as we expected and intended, and that the monetary policy we used for distributing our produced goods into human use was not only inconsistent with, but definitely and actively hostile, not only to our Socialist purposes, but to all the human welfare projects of so many men of goodwill who are not Socialists at all". The Henderson Society has been formed for the discussion and the critical scrutiny of the case thus presented in this book; and we invite, not only local constituency Labour Parties, trade unions and co-operative societies, but all individuals and organisations of people of goodwill who are seeking the effective way in which to secure such welfare, to become members of the Society, writing first to the Secretary at the address on the title page .'

' This book deals with a criticism on the Double Standard Money System (which must not be confounded with Bimetallism), as set forth in " Inter-Temporary Values" and " The Trust and the Gold Trust," which appeared in the Bankers' Magazine for September 1907, and draws attention to the very injurious consequences, to the industry and commerce of the nations, of the continuous violent fluctuations in prices, resulting, in ever increasing frequency, in the crises and the panics, which have prevailed throughout the West ever since the monetary legislation, of the period from 1871-73 to the present time, began to be effective, which has destroyed, for international monetary purposes, the use of one half of the world's supply of the precious metals. It also deals with the problem of Profit-Sharing as a means of reconciling the subjective divergencies of the particular and temporary interests of employers and employees which are, for practical purposes, more noticeable than the objective harmonies of their general and permanent interests, these being more obscure and remote from the immediate concerns of every-day life '.

' Because striking similarities exist between the main features of economic structure and the fundamental aspects of biology, and because any economic system influences the biological development of man for good or for evil. This book examines scientifically the extent and character of the influence exerted by politico-economic organization on racial development, and sets forth a new socio-biological theory. First, modern economic and social institutions and principles are analysed, and the relation between them and evolutionary laws and phenomena is established. Then Mr. Yahuda demonstrates that human society is divided from the point of view of privilege and cross-divided from the standpoint of fitness into four distinct categories, and discusses the major factors which cause migration from one category to another. From his lucid exposition it can be ascertained whether and how the quality of the human stock is improving or deteriorating, and it is possible to determine the causes of the rise and fall of nations and of the recurrence of revolutions and invasions. Science, history, and statistics are drawn upon to illustrate and to prove this remarkable thesis. Mr. Yahuda's conclusions as to the future of mankind will, command widespread interest among students of economics, politics, sociology, public health, anthropology, and jurisprudence, and all those concerned in the welfare of the British Empire '.
