    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.

No permission to distribute or reproduce without authorization. Draft: Published version will be available in PDF for sale from Duke University Press. Heywood Broun, Benjamin Stolberg, and the Politics of American Labor Journalism in the 1920s and 1930s Christopher Phelps In the two decades from 1919 to 1939, when labor’s fortunes faltered in the Roaring Twenties only to revive in the Great Depression, and when publishers were consolidating the newspaper industry into corporate chains, Heywood Broun (1888-1939) and Benjamin Stolberg (1891-1951) were two of the most prominent American journalists to focus on labor. As first president of the American Newspaper Guild, Broun is the subject of two admiring biographies by fellow journalists who depict him as a gentle, big-hearted, gin-imbibing, lumbering bear of a man, yet his labor writings have received little analysis.1 Stolberg, practically forgotten today, was once so admired that the Socialist standard-bearer Norman Thomas placed him “easily in the front rank” of that “little company of those men and women who both understand the American labor movement and can help explain it to itself and to others.”2 Juxtaposing the lives and writings of Stolberg and Broun will provide insight into American labor journalism’s interwar achievements and dilemmas, particularly the politics of its coverage. The author gratefully acknowledges comments from Tim Barker, Leon Fink, Nelson Lichtenstein, and Jeff Schuhrke, research leave from the University of Nottingham, and the Martin Duberman Visiting Fellowship of the New York Public Library.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. l.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of "sectioning" the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • 100 Questions to the Communists
    "7 7'"' - ...-.... 100 tl~- fo JluL By STEPHEN NAFT RAND SCHOOL PRESS Price: 10 ·cents cu: - :w Copyright, 1939 RAND SCHOOL PRESS 7 East 15th Street, New York City -~·178 100 QUESTIONS TO THE COMMUNISTS By Stephen Naft HE following questions, addressed to sympathizers, T fellow-travelers and members of the Communist Pa.rty, are put with the sincere intention not to antago­ m-ie.- but rather to evoke answers in their own thoughts on the basis of their own independent sincere reasoning. These questions are not addressed to those who will ~satisfied in their own minds with evasive or polemical jQ-,tincations of every act of "my party, right or wrong." The blind thoughtless acceptance and parroting of offi<!ial, inaehine-made arguments passed on to the rank and file by the party authotities or mendacious denials of facts unanimously reported by hundreds of correspondents, observers and workers who went to the Soviet Union with enthusiasm or sympathy and stayed there for any length of time, is in direct contradiction to the spirit and ideal of all sincere movements for the betterment of mankind. Lying and fraudulent arguments can only help fraudu­ )e.llt ~uses. These are the methods of fascism. Therefore we hope that every honest sympathizer and supporter of Communist and Socialist aspirations, who consequently must cherish the ideals of personal and eco­ nomic security, of freedom, of justice, social equality and br&therly solidarity will not only understand and appre­ ei:ate 611!' motives but will welcome these questions as an QPJ)Ort\lnity !or self-criticism and self-evaluation of his At~itude towards the principles dear to him.
