Note
The newsletter uses May Day as an opportunity to take stock of the Libertarian Socialist movement. Discussions include a disagreement over aid between the United States and Indonesia, the Communist Party defector Ben Gitlow, and the danger of Catholic schools. The newsletter specifically presents American developments such as the Supreme Court's attack on liberties and a comment by Bertrand Russell on America. John Loeb also urges readers to protest a play entitled "The Big Hand," which portrays anarchists in an unfavorable light. The International Working Class column again discusses world events, such as the fascist dictatorships of Spain and Portugal, inequality in the Soviet Union, and Japanese mining deaths.
