Child Starvation Tragedy Ties to Brokaw Family Home
Leonard Brokaw eight dies after a period of starvation in a Pacadens California cottage. His parents Warren Edwin Brokaw and Estella Blackman Brokaw, leaders of the single tax movement, failed to provide food while pursuing writings. The two older siblings, aged ten and twelve, are in critical condition. Authorities found only crusts amid bare rooms filled with manuscripts. The family reportedly foraged figs when provisions ran out. The Brokaws, ardent followers of Henry George, lived in a modest home on Morton Avenue. The mother’s weak state is linked to malnutrition. Mrs Brokaw previously led the Woman’s Sinje Taxers in Chunk, Pa. Brokaw edited The Single Tax Courier in St Louis. The couple has been writing works for six years, including The Science of Faulty and The Soul of the World.
