  • Lovestone Becomes a Lovestoneite, 1928–9
    chapter 13 Lovestone Becomes a Lovestoneite, 1928–9 Late 1928 to early 1929 was Lovestone’s apex. The anti-Trotsky campaign was integral to his tenure as party leader. Many of the leaders of the campaign would soon be purged themselves. By supporting Bukharin at the same time as Stalin was preparing an attack on the head of the Comintern, Lovestone sowed the seeds of his own downfall. Lovestone had genuine affinities to Bukharin, but he also miscalculated in his attempt to position himself with the Comintern leadership. Lovestone had attacked Lozovsky, Stalin’s ally, for ‘making a muddle of nearly everything he has touched’, and at the last meet- ing of the Senioren Convent (comprising high-ranking Comintern leaders), Lovestone attacked the ‘corridor congress’ against Bukharin, compelling Stalin to deny any breach between the two Russian leaders. Meanwhile the campaign against the ‘right danger’ in the Comintern increased; Lovestone’s fixation with Cannon—and his attacks on Foster and Bittelman—left him open to criticism as a ‘rightist’.1 Engdahl, in a cable from Moscow, indicated ‘general approval here [about] Cannon expulsion’, but stressed that the ‘party must emphasize more how- ever [the] struggle against right danger while fighting Trotzkyism’. Some in the Comintern attacked the Daily Worker’s coverage of the expulsions as ‘mostly selfpraise and going [to] ridiculous extremes’. Couching himself in Comintern rhetoric, Lovestone argued that fighting Cannon and Trotskyism was part of the fight against the ‘right danger’. According to a motion by the leadership of the Young Workers’ (Communist) League: ‘In the American Party at the present time, the Right danger is represented sharply by the Trotskyists’.

As we get older it can become increasingly difficult to leave the house to participate in favorite activities. There is a source of comfort that may benefit you. Pets can help reduce stress, lower blood pressure, increase sociali- zation and physical activity. Be- fore considering getting a pet, it’s a good idea to evaluate what will work for you. Have you had pets before? Are you physically capa- ble of caring for an animal? If you get a dog, will you be able to walk it regularly? If your answer are yes, then you may want to consider getting a pet. While breeders are good sources for pets, a rescue from a shelter might be less expensive. Some shelters offer reduced fees for older pets and for senior citi- zens. In addition, you may give an animal a second chance for a good home. If you are unable to commit to the level of activity a dog may require, consider a cat or perhaps a bird. Just make sure that you are able to provide the care and maintenance your pet may re- quire. You’ll reap the benefits of companionship in return. If you don’t want a pet but are looking for an extra dose of love, join us on Monday mornings for our “Pawsitive” Visitors pro- gram.

  • EVITA’ COMES to HONG KONG General Tickets on Sale from Today
    For Immediate Release POWERFUL, PASSIONATE & POLITICAL TIM RICE AND ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER’S MASTERPIECE ‘EVITA’ COMES TO HONG KONG General Tickets On Sale from Today [Hong Kong, 16 January 2018] For the first time ever, the original West End and Broadway production of TIM RICE and ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER’s iconic musical EVITA, directed by legendary Broadway director HAL PRINCE, will open in Hong Kong at the Lyric Theatre, Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts on 11 May 2018 for a strictly limited season. The acclaimed show comes to Hong Kong as part of an international tour, taking in Singapore, Taipei and Tokyo. General tickets are now on sale and are available online at www.hkticketing.com, or by calling 31- 288-288. Seats can also be obtained at all HK Ticketing or Tom Lee outlets in person. Fans are urged to act fast to avoid disappointment as the show has received an enthusiastic response during the American Express Priority Booking period. EVITA won two Olivier Awards following its sensational West End opening in 1978, for Best Musical and Best Performance in a Musical for the then unknown Elaine Paige, propelling her to stardom. The show opened on Broadway in 1979, and won an incredible seven Tony Awards and six Drama Desk Awards, cementing Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s place as one of the most successful musical partnerships of all time.

Set in Buenos Aires between 1934 and 1952, EVITA charts the rags-to-riches rise of Eva Perón, wife of former Argentine dictator Juan Perón, from her humble beginnings through to the extraordinary wealth, power and status which ultimately led her to be heralded as the “spiritual leader of the nation” by the Argentine people.
