The New International, May 1938

 

A Gift for a Friend

 

From New International, Vol.4 No.4, May 1938, p.159.
Transcribed & marked up by Einde O’Callaghan for ETOL.

 

ONE OF the most effective methods employed by the bourgeois reviews is to request their readers to send a subscription as a gift to a friend. The reader pays for it; the friend becomes a reader. We do not have the slightest hesitation in adopting the idea and we recommend it to the serious attention of our readers. If you have a friend who is not now a reader of The New International, send us a subscription for him, even if he is not politically friendly to our review, or more accurately, especially if he isn’t. We suggest that The New International is especially fitted to break down the prejudices of an opponent and to re-awaken both his critical faculties and his ability to think independently. “Students and faculty members at Kent State University like The New International,” writes one of the students. And from the other end of the world, Capetown, South Africa, Paul Koston says: “We would like to see an even larger New International.”
