We have temporarily suspended production of the MIA DVD 2006. Please check here regularly for updates on the new edition

31 August, 2006: The Early American Marxism Archive in the USA History section of the MIA has added the following 6 PDF documents from the Socialist Party of America, focusing on the infamous Palmer Raids of January 1921:

4,500 Arrested in Nationwide Drive; Roundup Continues. [Jan. 3, 1920] This unsigned news report from the front page of the Milwaukee Leader provides a first account of the Palmer Raids, launched on the night of Jan. 2/3, 1920.

‘Raids on Radicals Blow to Freedom of United States’: Statement of the Publicity Department of the Socialist Party of America, Jan. 3, 1920. At 9 pm on the night of January 2/3, 1920, Attorney General Mitchell Palmer and the US Department of Justice, working with an array of law enforcement authorities, launched a coordinated sweep of radicals, focusing on known members of the Communist Party of America, Communist Labor Party, and Industrial Workers of the World.

How Did You Vote?—Statement of the Milwaukee Leader, Jan. 3, 1920. The Palmer Raids of Jan. 2-3, 1920, were a veritable Pearl Harbor attack on the American Left and caused a frantic reaction in all quarters, as this front page missive from Victor Berger's Milwaukee Leader demonstrates.

Hands Off Russian Republic: Statement of the National Executive Committee of the Socialist Party of America, Jan. 5, 1920. One can probably list 10 reasons for the 1919 split of the Socialist Party into rival Social Democratic and Communist organizations.

Nuorteva Says Spies Helped to Frame Program of Communists. [Jan. 7, 1920] This short news brief from the front page of the Milwaukee Leader announces that (1) the Department of Justice had issued a warrant for the arrest for deportation of Ludwig C.A.K. Martens, head of the Russian Soviet Government Bureau in New York; (2) Santeri Nuorteva, secretary to Martens, announced agents of the Department of Justice had actively participated in the formulation of Communist Party platform planks, "which now form the basis of the persecution of thousands of people."

Let the Facts Come Out. An Editorial from the Milwaukee Leader, Jan. 8, 1920. This Milwaukee Leader editorial, probably written by John Work, supports the general theory advanced by Santeri Nuorteva on Jan. 7, 1920, that agents of the Department of Justice had participated in the fabrication of Communist Party planks which were then applied against radicals across America during the Palmer Raids.

The Story of the Egg, by Morris Hillquit [Nov. 28, 1919] A Socialist parable from the New York SPA leader, provided to illustrate that "A country can be educated, led, and transformed into Socialism, but it cannot be driven, lured, or bulldozed into it.

People’s Rule Upheld in Berger Victory: District Returns Socialist to Seat Congress Refused: Big Business routed by 4,806 Votes, as Balloting Shows Gain of 6,548 for Socialist Party: Genuine Americanism Wins Decisive Victory. [Dec. 20, 1919] Election results of the Dec. 19, 1919 general election for the Wisconsin 5th Congressional District—a seat vacated when Democrats and Republicans in Congress colluded to deny Socialist Victor Berger the seat to which he had been elected in 1918.

Landis, Who Denied Prejudice, Would Have V.L. Berger Shot. [Dec. 30, 1919] On Dec. 29, 1919, the slightly unhinged Federal Judge Kennesaw Mountain Landis spoke before the Advertising Men’s Post of the proto-fascist American Legion in Chicago. During the course of his remarks, he was quoted as complaining: "It was my great displeasure to give [Socialist Congressman Victor] Berger 20 years in Ft. Leavenworth.

Mob Law and Civil Rights. Statement of the National Executive Committee of the Socialist Party of America. [Published Dec. 30, 1919] There were two new social systems to emerge from the carnage of World War I—Bolshevism and Fascism. There were two primary American manifestations of proto-fascism in the immediate post-war years—(1) the resurgent Ku Klux Klan, which grew dramatically throughout the first half of the 1920s and fueled a culture of lynch law and race war; and (2) the American Legion, which conducted episodes of organized violence against perceived enemies of the state, primarily political radicals and trade unionists.

The Issue is ‘Americanism vs. Bolshevism, (probably) by Oscar Ameringer [Dec. 6, 1919] Front page piece of campaign agitational literature from the Milwaukee Leader answering the conservatives’ attempt to smear Socialist Congressional candidate Victor Berger with the taint of Russian Bolshevism.

Berger Vote Soars; Leads by 4,722: Socialist Gets 14,004 Ballots While Harmony Man Gets 9,282: Bolo Bodenstab Proves to be Weak Candidate: Fusionists Fight. [Dec. 9, 1919] On Monday, Dec. 8, 1919, voters of the 5th Congressional District in Wisconsin went to the polls in a primary election to name the candidates for a Dec. 19 general to fill the open seat of Victor L.

Kruse [Dec. 10, 1919] Agitational article from the pages of the Milwaukee Leader attempting to build public support for the cause of Kate Richards O’Hare, Bill Haywood and other imprisoned members of the IWW, conscientious objectors imprisoned during the war, and Eugene V. Debs and other members of the Socialist Party subjected to state suppression by the Wilson regime and its allies.

NY Call in Conspiracy Against Russia; Also in War on American Communists; NY Socialists Hold Underground Meeting, by H.M. Wicks [April 21, 1923] During the winter of 1922-23 and the spring of 1923, the Workers Party and the Socialist Party simultaneously engaged in an escalation of rhetoric, making permanent a rift in the ranks of the American Left that would last for decades.

An Open Letter to David Karsner, by J. Louis Engdahl [April 21, 1923] Engdahl, a former leading editor of the official publications of the Socialist Party (now editor of the Workers Party’s English weekly), writes this open letter to David Karsner, managing editor of the New York Call, making an effective personal appeal to Karsner’s philosophy of intellectual liberty on behalf of the Workmen’s Circle Mandolin Orchestra and Jewish comedian Ludwig Salz, both threatened with repressive measures if they performed at organized gatherings on behalf of the Workers Party or its institutions.

Party United Front Policy is Approved, by C.E. Ruthenberg [WPA Executive Council actions of May 7-8, 1923] Published summary of the actions of the 11 member Executive Council at its May 7-8 meeting. The Executive Council was a smaller group elected by the unwieldy 25 member CEC to conduct the business of the CEC between its plenary meetings.

Problems of the Party (III): My Party, Right or Wrong, My Party, by John Pepper [May 19, 1923] In this third part of his “Problems of the Party” series, John Pepper takes aim at a tendency toward interest-group patriotism among many members of the Workers Party, instead of “Party Patriotism.”

Problems of the Party (IV): Be American! by John Pepper [May 26, 1923] In the 4th installment of his “Problems of the Party” series, party leader John Pepper analyzes the continued division of the Workers Party of America into a multiplicity of Language Federations, noting that not only the spoken language varies from group to group, “but often the ideology.”

What Heinous Crime is This? by H.M. Wicks [May 26, 1923] The spring 1923 attempt of the Workers Party of America to convince the Proletarian Party of America to discontinue its separate existence and to amalgamate was decisively rejected by the National Executive Committee of the PPA.

Wicks sinks his teeth into the convention keynote speech of “notorious Bolshevik baiter and editor of the Jewish (Socialist) Daily Forward” Abraham Cahan—a “tirade that was so acrimonious, intemperate, and obviously false that the majority of the delegates were stunned.”

Socialist Party Convention Rejects the United Front, by John Pepper [June 2, 1923] Workers Party of America leader John Pepper comments upon the recently-concluded 1923 Convention of the Socialist Party of America, which he characterizes as a “debacle without equal” and a “pitiful spectacle.”

Debs - Chairman of the Socialist Party, by John Pepper [June 9, 1923] This is perhaps as interesting for the presumptions which Workers Party leader John Pepper makes about the rival Socialist Party of America than for its concrete analysis. Veteran Left Socialist Eugene V. Debs has been elected to the National Executive Committee of the SPA for the first time since 1899, Pepper announces, and further elected National Chairman of the organization.

Short letter by Socialist Party leader Gene Debs to his former party comrade Louis Engdahl in reply to Engdahl's letter of March 12, 1923, apparently bringing to Debs' attention the action of SPA delegates in blocking Workers Party participation at the 2nd conferences of the Conference for Progressive Political Action (Cleveland, Dec. 1922) and the American Labor Party (New York, March 1923).

Judge Rules that Everything is Admissible at the Communist Trial in Michigan,. by Edgar Owens [March 31, 1923] Brief news article from the pages of The Worker, English language official organ of the Workers Party of America, on the progress of the William Z. Foster trial at St. Joseph, Michigan.

Open Letter to the Members and the CEC of the Proletarian Party of America from O.W. Kuusinen, Secretary-General of ECCI, April 7, 1923. In the spring of 1923, the Workers Party of America put on a full court press attempting to win over the members of the Proletarian Party of America to its ranks. This letter by the Secretary-General of the Executive Committee of the Communist International makes the appeal in no uncertain terms: "The whole Proletarian Party must join the Workers Party of America. All who accept the leadership of the Communist International must be inside the ranks. "

William Z. Foster -- Revolutionary Leader, by John Pepper [April 14, 1923] Given the two fought a factional war to the knife for most of the rest of the 1920s, there is a certain element of irony in this Worker article by John Pepper holding that William Z. Foster was a living composite of the "splendid, typical characteristics of the American workers."

Foster Verdict a Triumph for Communism in the United States, by C.E. Ruthenberg [April 21, 1923] Executive Secretary of the Workers Party C.E.

Louis Engdahl [April 28, 1923] The sudden resignation of New York Call editor David Karsner "confirmed" the reporting of The Worker on a change of political line at the New York Call, states this follow-up article by Worker editor Louis Engdahl.

The United Front, by Upton Sinclair [May 12, 1923] Invited by editor Louis Engdahl of The Worker to provide his views on whether the Workers Party should be admitted to the newly organized Labor Parties around the nation, author Upton Sinclair says yes and then unleashes a torrent upon the sectarians who dominated both the Workers Party and Socialist Party.

Problems of the Party (II): A Discussion with Upton Sinclair About the United Front, by John Pepper [May 12, 1923] Reply by Workers Party leader John Pepper to Upton Sinclair's call for a political amalgamation of the Workers Party with the Socialist Party.
