OPEN DIPLOMACY, by E. D. Morel. Crown 8vo, 4/6.
“Foreign Policy” and “Secret Diplomacy” continue to be terms invested with some kind of mysterious attributes. In this volume Mr. Morel endeavours to simplify a problem which still remains complicated and obscure to the general public. He shows us “foreign policy” as an influence working in our everyday lives. He brings “diplomacy” into our homes, and serves it up as a dish upon the breakfast table. He depicts us as helpless automata moving blindfolded in a world of make-believe until we secure an effective democratic control over the management of our foreign relations.
THE NEW LABOUR OUTLOOK, by Robert Williams. Crown 8vo, 4/6.

SOCIALISM AND PERSONAL LIBERTY, by Robert Dell (author of “My Second Country”). Crown 8vo, 4/6.
“Personal Liberty in the Socialist State” is an old controversy, and the publishers feel that Mr. Dell’s new volume will evoke widespread interest and discussion.
The author shows that Socialism is not necessarily incompatible with personal freedom, or with individualism properly understood, but is rather an essential condition of both. He contends that economic freedom is unattainable under Capitalist conditions by any but the owners of capital and that individual liberty is being threatened by political democracy, which is becoming a tyranny of the majority.
A NEW AGRICULTURAL POLICY, by F. E. Green. Crown 8vo, 4/6.
Times.—“His advocacy is clear and detailed, and his criticisms pointed ... worth noting.”
