(old) COMMUNIST PARTY OF AMERICA (1919-1921)

Official Organs

The organ of the Communist Party of America was a newspaper published in Chicago called The Communist. There were a number of publications by this name -- the CPA's Communist was directly preceded by a paper of the same name edited by Dennis Batt. When the CPA took over operation of the publication in 1919, numbering was started over from vol. 1, no. 1. The paper shut down briefly due to the Palmer Raids of Jan. 1920, before being resumed as an underground publication around Feb. 15, with an initial print run of about 7,000.

A theoretical monthly called The International was scheduled to be launched in January of 1920, but the first issue was seized at the press in the Palmer Raids. No copies were distributed and as of this writing no copies are known to have survived.

The theoretical magazine of the Workers (Communist) Party was The Liberator, a publication started by Max and Crystal Eastman in 1918 that was turned over to the CP circa 1921. In 1924 that magazine was merged with Soviet Russia Pictorial and The Labor Herald to establish The Workers Monthly. In 1927 there was another change of format and Workers Monthly was transformed into a theoretical magazine called The Communist; an artistic-oriented magazine called The New Masses was started at the same time.

The old CPA did not publish any books in 1919, but it did distribute three titles by Louis Fraina which were published by others as though they were CPA publications. It did print pamphlets and leaflets of its own, however.

COMMUNIST LABOR PARTY OF AMERICA (1919-1920)

The Communist Labor Party was initially based in Cleveland, OH, with its office at 3207 Clark Avenue. At the Oct. 25-27, 1919, meeting of the National Executive Committee in New York City, the nexus of the organization was moved to New York. From November of 1919 the National Office of the CLP was located at 208 E 12th Street, New York, NY.

 

Official Organs

The Communist Labor Party published short runs of at least five periodicals: Communist Labor Party News (no fewer than 3 monthly issues, Sept.-Nov. 1919) was proclaimed the "Official Organization Organ of the Communist Labor Party." It was a four page newpaper sold in bundles for $1.00 per 100.

Communist Labor was launched on Dec. 6, 1919, projected as a bi-weekly. It was touted as the "Fighting Organ of the Party" and was conceived as a propaganda paper for both party members and their associates, who might be interested in the party. Max Bedacht was the first editor of the publication. By May 15, 1920 had only issued its 6th issue.

Voice of Labor was the CLP's trade union paper, edited by John Reed and Benjamin Gitlow. It was a bi-weekly (published in opposite weeks than Communist Labor) and advanced the slogan of "One Big Union" for American Workers. In Nov. 1919 a circulation of 15,000 was claimed. The paper sold for 5 cents per copy, annual subscriptions fo $1.50, and bundles of 100 for $3.

All Together, which may or may not have actually been launched, was projected as "the Monthly Propaganda paper of the party." The paper was to be targeted to a mass audience, compiling "the best articles and illustrations appearing inn Communist Labor and the Voice of Labor for the Month. Price was to be 50 cents per 100 or $5 per 1000.

The Class Struggle was to be the theoretical magazine of the party. Originally published by Louis Fraina and Ludwig Lore, Fraina left the staff to join the Communist Party of America, leaving Lore at the helm. Only 1 issue was published under CLP auspices (Nov. 1919) before publication was terminated due to lack of funds.

Official Organs and Magazines

The main English language legal weekly newspaper of the American Communist movement was The Toiler (formerly The Ohio Socialist), which came to the party from the old United Communist Party. The Toiler merged with The Workers Council to form a new publication called The Worker in January 1922. At the time of the Dec. 1922 Second Convention of the WPA, the claimed circulation of The Worker was 15,500.At the end of 1924, this publication moved to a daily production schedule and assumed the name The Daily Worker.

The theoretical magazine of the Workers (Communist) Party was The Liberator, a publication started by Max Eastman and his sister Crystal Eastman in 1918 when The Masses was banned by postal authorities. Informally tied to the left wing of movement from the time of its creation, the publication was turned over to the CP in November 1922 rather than suspend publication for economic reasons. At the time of the Dec. 1922 Second Convention of the WPA, the claimed circulation of this publication was 18,000. In 1924 that magazine was merged with the Friends of Soviet Russia's Soviet Russia Pictorial and the Trade Union Educational League's The Labor Herald to establish The Workers Monthly. In 1927 there was another change of format and Workers Monthly was transformed into a theoretical magazine called The Communist; an artistic-oriented magazine called The New Masses was started at the same time.

The Communist changed its title to Political Affairs in 1945 and continues publication by that name to this day.

[fn. Comintern Archive, f. 515, op. 1, d. 148, ll. 113, 118.; d. 149, l. 27.]

During 1924, the party issued a newspaper called Farmer Labor Voice [Chicago], edited by Joseph Manley.

The Workers Party published a pamphlet-sized magazine calle The American Worker Correspondent in 1926, a publication dedicated to training workekr-correspondents.
