Chicago: The Socialist Party 1924. First Edition. Ephemera. A scathing broadside against not only the phenomenon of "pyramided wealth" among America's plutocrat class Ford and Rockefeller are singled out as especially egregious cases but against the "intellectual prostitutes" -- preachers priests lecturers college professors entertainers and other apologists for Capitalism -- whose propaganda creates a populace ".mentally helpless confused swamped in ignorance on the subject of industrial justice.thus brain-darkened they toil on till death contented in that ignorance; and all their lives they thoughtlessly repeat the cunning fraud 'Rewards are determined by brains and ability andhard work' - as thoughtlessly as a parrot repeats 'Polly wants a cracker'."

Boston: George B. Hugo 1909. First Edition. Hardcover. Full transcript of the debate including occasional interjections from the audience. Since the volume was published at Mr. Hugo's expense we may assume he thought himself the victor; though he notes in his foreword that ".they the Socialists submitted their own copy for publication which being incorrect and slackly handled I refused to countenance.they nevertheless proceeded to publish it ignoring the law in question quite in accordance with established Socialistic tenets." We have never encountered the version published by the Socialist Party Club of Boston but we imagine that a side-by-side comparison of the two would prove instructive. Octavo 23cm.

Socialism / Abortion / Women. Day Dorothy.
The Eleventh Virgin.
New York: Albert and Charles Boni 1924. First Edition. Cloth. Very Good. 312 pp. Blue cloth stamped in gilt to spine. Light wear to extremities; spine gilt a bit dull; penciled ownership signature; slight crease to title page. Lacking the incredibly scarce dust jacket. Autobiographical novel by the founder of the Catholic Worker movement written at the age of 26 in the midst of an already tumultuous life before her conversion to Catholic pacifism. She regretted its publication and later sought to reclaim every copy she could find. Beginning from childhood the novel incorporates Day's education and activism experiences working at the Socialist Daily the New York Call and the Masses re-titled "The Flame" in the book and deeply personal affairs including a portrait of Floyd Dell as Hugh Brace an account of an abortion and a final monologue in which the central character realizes that her political activities and modern womanhood have distracted her from her truer goal of loving a man and becoming a mother. Walter Rideout lists this as one of three novels by "tired radicals" in the 1920s placing it midway along Day's journey "From Union Square to Rome" as she described her path in an essay about her conversion. In his recent introduction to the book Paul Bowers cites a passage from William Miller's autobiography describing Dorothy Day's feelings about the book half a century after its publication in 1975: "She held out one book and asked 'What should I do about this' I knew the book. It was The Eleventh Virgin her autobiographical novel. 'It’s all true' she said. It was a book I knew that she hated and would have rejoiced if every copy could have been consumed in flames and then be forever put out of her mind. But now she stood there holding out to me one of the few copies left. I said nothing. Dorothy was controlled but I could tell by the pale taut look in her face that the business of turning all of this material over to me was a moment of great stress and pain for her. She was in a way confronting history." Scarce. We note 14 holdings in OCLC and it is uncommon to find a copy in this condition in commerce. Albert and Charles Boni hardcover

New York: Arbeiter Ring aka Workmens Circle 1910. First Edition. Paperback. Souvenir book and organizational history issued in conjunction with the tenth anniversary convention of Der Arbeiter Ring aka The Workmens Circle a Jewish-American labor association and mutual-aid society that formed following the massive waves of Yiddish immigration following the Russian and European pogroms of the Eighteen-eighties and Nineties. The Workmens Circle is still in existence as a Jewish cultural and liberal political organization but at the time of this publication the Circle's aims were essentially Marxist in line with those of the left wing of the American Socialist Party with which many of its members were closely affiliated. In keeping with the sense of accomplishment that the organization's members would have felt having survived both Russian pogroms and ten years in a New World barely more sympathetic to Jewish culture than the Old this souvenir book is rather elaborately produced with numerous halftone plates reproducing photographs and drawings as well as many illustrations in text. Small octavo 18.5cm. Printed thick paper wrappers; 256 pp; 16 unnumbered leaves of plates; illus; portraits. Mild external rubbing and wear; text clean tight and unmarked - a Very Good copy.

Socialism: "The Creed of Despair" :: Joint Debate in Faneuil Hall March 22 1909 between George B. Hugo President Employers' Association of Massachusetts Affirmative and James F. Carey State Secretary Socialist Party of Massachusetts Negative
Boston: George B. Hugo 1909. First Edition. Octavo 23cm. Publisher's green cloth boards lettered in black on front cover; 60 1pp. Ink presentation inscription from George B. Hugo to front endpaper dated 1913. Mild cover soil and spotting; still a tight well-preserved copy VG or better. Final page reprints the "Declaration of Principles of the Employers' Association of Massachusetts - Organized for Law and Order and Industrial Peace. Full transcript of the debate including occasional interjections from the audience. Since the volume was published at Mr. Hugo's expense we may assume he thought himself the victor; though he notes in his foreword that ".they the Socialists submitted their own copy for publication which being incorrect and slackly handled I refused to countenance.they nevertheless proceeded to publish it ignoring the law in question quite in accordance with established Socialistic tenets." We have never encountered the version published by the Socialist Party Club of Boston but we imagine that a side-by-side comparison of the two would prove instructive. George B. Hugo unknown books
