Memo

 

From New International, Vol. XVI No. 3, May–June 1950, p. 130.
Transcribed & marked up by Einde O’Callaghan for ETOL.

 

Compliments on the new format and the contents of the NI continue to come in from our readers. We are glad to get them.

But the important thing is to get more readers. Our subscribers could do a lot to spread the influence of the magazine. Why not make a special effort this month to get at least one friend or acquaintance to subscribe? Give it a moment’s thought, and fifteen minutes of action.

A number of copies of the last issue were improperly collated at the bindery. We received several good-humored jibes, and requests for complete copies from subscribers. If your copy contains a repetition of some pages and omits others, just drop us a line and we’ll be glad to send you a good one.

The Shachtman-Browder debate carried in this issue has been recorded on tapes. They are available for use by groups and individuals who might like to hear the debate with their own ears. Due to a technical error, Browder’s final summary couldn’t be transcribed but, as you can see from the text, these last few minutes do not seriously affect the argument.

If you want the tapes, write the business office of the NI. The rental fee is nominal.

Note

Because of the space we have devoted in this issue to reprinting the text of the Browder-Shachtman debate, we have had to postpone the continuation of the series of articles, Four Portraits of Stalinism, by Max Shachtman. The next and concluding installment, which will appear in the July–August issue, completes the critique of Bertram D. Wolfe’s book, and also examines the study of Stalin by Isaac Deutscher ... The July–August issue will contain many other articles of more than ordinary interest to our readers, among them an exchange between Comrade Hal Draper and a European friend on the meaning of Titoism, and an over-all review of the situation in Asia by Jack Brad and Henry Judd.
