1952 June-July Socialist Monthly

    The "These United States" column is focused on control of unions by gangsters and urges the AFL to act upon these accusations.  It also discusses the government defeat of a railroad union, a move by Philip Murray of the CIO to continue to produce steel for defense during a strike, the incapability of Social Security to provide real security for workers, the withholding of information from the public, and corporate subsidies.  John Loeb's International Working Class column discusses Liberian slavery, Chinese protests against Stalinism, and injustices committed by both sides in the Korean War.  Collaboration between Stalinists and Roman Catholics in Italy is denounced, as is the cowardice of academics who support the government and censorship of pro-Communists.  The newsletter also criticizes the potential deportation of former Trotskyist and current libertarian socialist C.L.R. James and the erosion of workers' rights.
