Theos-Talk Archives (January 1998 Message tl00087)

You may want to look into the famous and very rare book by Ernest Wood --
Is This Theosophy? There is a short description of how politics was handled
by CJ and CWL. I do not know if any thing has changed in the last four
decades.

May be you should post the msg on theos-talk as well, if you have not done
it yet.

MKR

PS: since this book is extremely rare, if anyone is interested I can post
the relevant excerpt(s).
