A letter from Henry W Lucy accuses a volume titled English Radical Leaders of bookmaking and theft. The author defends the work, cites pages quoted from Men and Manners in Parliament and Under the Clock, and faults Lucy for misrepresentation.

Letters to the editor defend Hinton against the charge of thieving in the English Radical Readers dispute.

They urge a workable international copyright standard and criticize anti trade attacks.
The letter argues that English publishers pay American authors fairly in English reprints but points out the low payment rate for reprinted American books in the United States.
