Founding member, Socialist Action 1989 Died, Los Angeles, California Scope and Content of Collection The papers of Milton Genecin reflect his long membership in the Socialist Workers Party from its founding convention in 1938 up until 1983, when he was one of a number of veteran members who left or were expelled from the party. Genecin was sequentially active in the New York City, Akron, Toledo and Los Angeles branches of the Socialist Workers Party. He was the party organizer for some time in each of the last three cities, and was for a number of years a member of the National Committee of the party. In party work he used the pseudonym Milton Alvin. The papers provide detailed documentation of the interior life of the party during the decades of Genecin's membership. They are divided into five series. The Correspondence series consists overwhelmingly of Genecin's correspondence with other party members. It retains the chronological arrangement initiated by Genecin himself. While this may not be optimal for some purposes, it is ideal for others, bringing together as it does letters to and from multiple individuals discussing contemporaneous party situations. The series of Speeches and Writings by Genecin is also arranged chronologically. It includes both lectures and articles written for public outlets, on the one hand, and internal party speeches and discussion papers, on the other. The series of Internal Documents consists of assorted items circulated internally within the Socialist Workers Party. These include minutes, resolutions, theses, discussion papers, and mimeographed or photocopied transcripts of letters and other documents. Some notes by Genecin on party meetings are also included. This series too is arranged chronologically. The series of Internal Bulletins is very substantial. It consists of items susceptible to treatment as serials but intended for internal use only within the Socialist Workers Party. They are arranged by title and thereunder numerically/chronologically. Bulletins issued by youth or other affiliates of the party are included. The series of Printed Matter consists mainly of pamphlets intended for public consumption. Most of these were publications of the Socialist Workers Party or related organizations or presses. There is a separate subseries of pamphlets issued by unrelated organizations or presses, and other small subseries for serial issues and clippings. The Milton Genecin Papers were acquired by the Hoover Institution from Thelma Genecin in 1989, soon after her husband's death.

  • Bio-Bibliographical Sketch of Charles Curtiss
    Lubitz' TrotskyanaNet Charles Curtiss Bio-Bibliographical Sketch Contents: • Basic biographical data • Biographical sketch • Selective bibliography • Notes on archives Basic biographical data Name: Charles Curtiss Other names (by-names, pseud. etc.): C. ; Carlos ; C. Charles ; Carlos Cortes ; Charlie Curtiss ; Sam(uel) Kurtz ; Date and place of birth: July 4, 1908, Chicago, Ill. (USA) Date and place of death: December 20, 1993, Los Angeles, Cal. (USA) Nationality: USA Occupations, careers, etc.: Printer (lino-typist), political and union organizer Time of activity in Trotskyist movement: 1928 - 1951 Biographical sketch This biographical sketch is chiefly based on those biographical sketches and obituaries which are listed in the last paragraph of the selected bibliography below. Born Sam(uel) Kurtz1 as a son of immigrants from Poland in Chicago, Ill. on July 4, 1908, Charles (or, Charlie) Curtiss earned his living by various jobs as miner, sailor, etc. before becoming a printer (lino- typist). In Los Angeles he married Lillian Ilstien (1911-1985) in 1935 from whom he got a son, David (born 1943), and a daughter, Carolyn (1950-1993). In 1928, Curtiss in Chicago joined the ranks of the Communist League of America (CLA), an organiza­ tion of left communists, chiefly expellees from the Communist Party of the U.S. because of 'Trotskyist deviationism'. Led by James P. Cannon, Martin Abern and Max Shachtman, the CLA soon became the American affiliate of the international Trotskyist movement which soon adopted the name Interna­ tional Left Opposition. As a skilled printer, Curtiss took responsibility for the production of CLA's weekly paper The Militant. In 1932, Curtiss was sent by the party leadership to Los Angeles, Cal., in order to help building a CLA branch there.

The first is what attitude our fractions should, in general, take towards "shop floor" issues in the plants. Before I go further, let me say that I am not of the opinion that our fractions should orient towards these "shop floor" issues and neglect what has been called "broad social questions." I agree generally with the replies to comrade Riehle in the pre-convention discussion by comrades Ryan, Kendrick and Taylor. But none of these articles dealt concretely with what attitude we should take towards "shop floor" questions. We clef initely should talk to as many workers as we can about "broad social issues" and socialism, sell the press, bring contacts to forums, etc. In the process, workers see us as people with intel- ligent ideas and consequently come up to us and ask us what to do about every problem, big and small.
