First Edition. <br /><br />A wonderfully lurid warning against socialism by an organization devoted to laissez-faire economics.</p><p>The anonymous author suggests that socialism would lead to the breakup of families: "There would be no such place as home under socialism. Everyone would live in the State barracks. There would be no breakfasts dinners or teas with one's family at one's own table as in the first place meals in private would not be permitted as it would be against the socialist idea of equality.In other words everybody when hungry would be reduced to the necessity of repairing to the common swine-trough and eating the hogwash the State had placed therein. No roast beef turkey and plum pudding no smiling faces of children and friends around the table on Christmas Day. Indeed there would not be any Christmas Day under socialism."</p><p>This pamphlet carries no publication date but it appears to have been issued sometime between 1901 and 1905. It refers to "the late Mr. Oscar Wilde" who died in late 1900. In 1906 the Liberty and Property Defence League issued a book Socialism: Its Fallacies and Dangers which included the text of this pamphlet.</p><p>OCLC lists 8 institutional holdings under two different accession numbers: Syracuse Stanford Amherst Harvard Texas Wisconsin Historical Society Michigan and the London School of Economics.

19411282<p>Communist Party U.S.A. <b>Defeat the War-Powers Bill: Get Out and Stay Out of the War</b>. San Francisco: California State Committee Communist Party n.d. 1941. Bifolium of newsprint folded to create four pages of approximately 8 1/2 x 11 inches 217 x 280 mm. </p><p>A vigorous denunciation of what became known as Lend-Lease where the US. supplied military assistance to Britain and other Allied countries beginning in 1941. Here the Communist Party appeals for the U.S. to stay out of foreign wars arguing that Wall Street bankers -- referred to here as a "bandit gang" and "the crafty minds of the House of Morgan" -- are the ones who benefit from war. <br /></p><p>"The workers and farmers the people of America have nothing to gain from war. Only the Morgans the Rockefellers and du Ponts -- only the imperialist scavengers -- feast on the blood of imperialist war" the leaflet states in the Communist Party's typically overwrought style.<br /></p><p>This leaflet was published in early 1941 as Lend-Lease legislation was moving through Congress. Despite the opposition of the Communists on one side and right-wing isolationists on the other the legislation passed Congress and was enacted in March 1941. This was just months before Germany invaded the Soviet Union. Needless to say the Communist Party would soon change its tune arguing for an all-out effort to defeat Hitler. And indeed Lend-Lease was used to aid the Soviet Union.<br /></p><p>Rare with no institutional holdings found in OCLC. None in commerce. <br /></p><p>An interesting artifact reflecting the Communist Party's antiwar position right before the German invasion of the Soviet Union. <br /></p><p>CONDITION: Evenly toned a couple of small edge tears pencil notation to upper left corner of first page horizontal fold from mailing.
