Notice to NI Subscribers

In the early morning of July 1 a fire broke out in the building which houses the business office of The New International at 4 Court Square, Long Island City, N.Y.

The fire was brought under control soon enough to prevent serious damage to the offices of the Independent Socialist League and to the bound volumes of The New International and other socialist literature kept in storage in an adjoining loft.

However, records of subscriptions sent to The New International since May 25 were destroyed.

All persons who have subscribed to The New International during the past two months are urged to send in their names and addresses at once, as well as a statement on the length of time for which they subscribed and whether their subscription was accompanied by payment.

Financial records were saved and can be checked against such subscriptions. However, these records do not contain the addresses of subscribers.

Persons who indicated their intention to resubscribe to the magazine but did not send payment are urged to do so, as we now have no way of billing them.

Finally, and very important: as a result of the fire, we must move to a new office at once. We urge all readers of The New International to send a substantial contribution to help us to restore losses due to the fire and to help us to move. The need is very great, and we are sure that your response will be commensurate with it.

L.G. Smith, Bus. Mgr.

Leon Trotsky

— will be the subject of several special features in the next issue of The New International, commemorating the tenth anniversary of the great revolutionist’s assassination. We are particularly proud to announce a memoir especially written for this issue by Trotsky’s co-worker, Albert Rosmer, Trotsky in Paris During the First World War.
