    1 Trotsky in Mexico: Toward a History of His Informal Contacts with the U.S. Government, 1937-1940 William Chase Published as “Trotskii v Mekcike. K istorii ero neglasnykh kontaktov s pravitel'stvom SShA (1937-1940)” ("Trotsky in Mexico: Toward a History of His Informal Contacts with the U.S. Government, 1937-1940"), Otechestvennaia istoriia, 4 (July/August 1995), 76-102. On 25 May 1933, Leon Trotsky wrote from his home in exile on the island of Prinkipo in Turkey to the United States Consul in Istanbul requesting “authorization to enter the United States and to remain for a period of three months” in order to conduct historical research on a book that would compare the American and Russian civil wars. To allay anxieties about admitting a committed revolutionary like him into the U.S., the 53 year old former leader of the Red Army assured the Consul that “my journey has no relation whatsoever with any political aim. I am ready to undertake the categorical obligation not to intervene, either directly or indirectly, in the internal life of the United States” during his visit.1 The U.S. Consul forwarded Trotsky’s letter to the State Department which, on 23 June 1933, denied his request because of his political views. The U.S. Consulate in Istanbul received the formal denial on 10 July.2 Given that in early July, Trotsky obtained permission to establish temporary residency in France, his disappointment over the American government’s denial was probably fleeting. From his arrival in Mexico in January 1937 until his death in August 1940, the U.S.

  • Bio-Bibliographical Sketch of Charles Cornell
    Lubitz' TrotskyanaNet Charles Cornell Bio-Bibliographical Sketch Contents: Basic biographical data Biographical sketch Selective bibliography Notes on archives Basic biographical data Name: Charles Cornell Other names (by-names, pseud. etc.): Carsten ; Charles Olney Cornell Date and place of birth: March 14, 1911, Cochise, Ariz. (USA) Date and place of death: January 1, 1989, San Mateo, Cal. (USA) Nationality: USA Occupations, careers, etc.: Teacher, real-estate agent Time of activity in Trotskyist movement: 1935 - ca. 1950 Biographical sketch Note: There are only a very few biographical facts known to us with regard to Charles Cornell. Charles (Olney) Cornell was born on March 14, 1911 in Cochise, Arizona. Earning his living as a young teacher in San Francisco, Cal., Cornell in 1935 became a member of the Trotskyist Workers Party (WP) there. When in 1936 the majority of the Workers Party, in accordance with Trotsky's turn towards 'entryism', decided to join the ranks of Norman Thomas ' Socialist Party (SP) as a Trotskyist faction, Cornell followed. However, the entryist phase came to an end already in 1937. Cornell from the very beginning was a member of the Socialist Workers Party (SWP) which was launched on January 1, 1938 under the leadership of James P. Cannon as American section of Trotsky's Movement for the Fourth International which in September 1938 became the Fourth International. Leon Trotsky had been granted asylum in Mexico in January 1937. From Spring 1939, he, together with his wife Natalia, his grandson, some secretaries and domestic helpers, lived in a house at Coyoa- cán, a suburb of Mexico City.

The following biographical sketch is chiefly based upon obituaries and other biographical items mentioned in the next-to-the last paragraph of the Selective bibliography below. Joseph Vanzler, better known under either his pen name John G. Wright or by his nickname Usick, was probably born in 1902 in Samarkand (Uzbekistan, Central Asia, then a part of the Czarist Russian Empire) as a son of an old rabbi and a girl of only 14 years of age. As one of only a handful Jewish children1 in his home-town, the young Vanzler was permitted to attend a Russian school where the as­ piring pupil among other things excellently learned vernacular and Court Russian, Latin, Greek and French. After the outbreak of World War I, his mother together with Joseph emigrated to the United States and settled in Boston, Mass., where she married Max Cohen who later got a rich man as owner of a company.
