From The New International, Vol. XVII No. 3, May–June 1951, p. 130.
Transcribed & marked up by Einde O’Callaghan for ETOL.
We continue to hear from friends all over the world in response to the circular we sent out a couple of months ago.
Great Britain: “It has been very good indeed to receive the NI and Labor Action, most especially the former, as there is no theoretical journal here. Though we may appear to be very silent, in fact, the articles in NI are very carefully read, and, on the whole, agreed upon as to their soundness and thoroughness ...”
Argentina: “I have the greatest interest in receiving both organs of yours, but my financial situation is worse than the New International and Labor Action. My last work was at the daily newspaper La Prensa, recently expropriated by the government, and at this moment I am unoccupied. Excuse me if I can’t contribute to pay the subscriptions, but I am an eager reader of the newspaper and the magazine ...”
Japan: “We wish first of all to thank you for sending us The New International and Labor Action, and we would much appreciate if you continue to send us the same ...”
Bolivia: “I have also received a new number of NI, and I am very happy with it. In spite of our differences, there is indubitable progress, especially in the articles of H. Judd and M. Shachtman in the appreciation of the British working class movement. Your press is read here not only by me, but also by a group of friends ... who have learned English especially in order to read your press. I am very content, as they did this by my ‘inspiration.’”
Due to the long delay in sea mail, replies are still coming in from the more distant parts of the world. But we want to remind our foreign readers once more: if you have not already done so, let us hear from you. Otherwise you will not receive the next issue of NI.
Here at home, our appeal to our readers to send in special contributions over and above their subscriptions, in order to make it possible for us to send the magazine to many abroad who cannot pay for it, has not resulted, so far, in much of a response. We want to appeal to you once more: a few dollars go a long way with the NI. But our dollars are all too few.
