S LIBERAL HELPERS

One of the first questions asked by serious people awakening now to socialist politicsas their sense of morality and social responsibility is jolted by the collapse of theeconomy and the systematic destruction of bourgeois social institutions is, "But howcan such a few people as the International Caucus of Labor Committees really expectto make a revolution?" This simple question, one that goes right to the ABCs ofTHIS socialism, is the subject of this month's editorial, The International ProgrammaticUnited Front ... The question is probed further and even more decisively in this month'sf_ature article, The Passion and Second Coming of L.D. Trotsky by L. Marcus and K.ISSUE Ghandi. Psychoanalysis" Marcus and (see Ghandi Campaigner, extendSept./Oct. the monumental 1973) tobreakthroughs expose the self-righteousof the "Newfailures and religious zealotry hidden behind the Manichean ritual of the "Trotsky-Stalinquestion" and to locate the essential human qualities required by revolutionaries,producing in the process the first actual human view of Leon Trotsky himself... A uniquetheoretical contribution of the Labor Committees, which as early as 1968 set the NCLC, apart as the only genuine socialist tendency among the plethora of anarchistic sectletsand reformist parties, was the location of the actual content and origin of fascism in theradical "local control" ideology embraced by U.S. liberals in the late 1960s. SusanWagner's Mother's Liberal Helpers: The Democratic Road to Fascism elaborates thiscritical thesis, drawing upon the extensive clinical evidence supplied by the activities ofleading American liberal democrats over the past six months... L. Marcus' Open Letterto Latin America, previously published in the ICLC's Spanish-language quarterly BoletinInternacional, outlines the basis for the creation of a revolutionary movement in LatinAmerica, and presents the central polemic underlying such an effort.Did you know that your future existence depends on fusion power, and that itsdevelopment is being deliberately, criminally suppressed by the Rockefeller-alliedAtomic Energy Commission?? It is something you cannot afford to ignore.The special September-October double issue of the Campaigner will featurepreviously unpublished technical articles, the fruits of fusion research, contributed byscientists presently collaborating with the ICLC in the campaign to break through theAEC's psywar barrier and push this vital work further. The Conceptual Design of ATokamak Fusion Power Reactor, UWMAK-I and Technological Implications forTokamak Fusion Reactors of the UWMAK-I Conceptual Design, a two-part summary byconstruction Robert W. Conn of and fusion G. L. reactor, KulcinskiApplications of a 2000-page of Fusion detailed Power engineering Technology study to on theNEXTChemical Industry by Morris Belier, James R. Powell, and Meyer ,_teinberg andProspects for Nuclear Fusion Power by William Gough constitute some of the bestscientific evidencetestifying to the immediate feasibility of developing fusion ISSUEtechnology -- contrary to AEC-enforced lies on the matter. Louis Gold, in his ProjectJericho documents the hideous story of AEC suppression of fusion research which heexperienced first hand.The editorial, Science and Socialist Program by Chuck Stevens, describes themethodology by which one determines the necessity for and feasibility of newtechnologies, outlining the scientific revolution implied by controlled nuclear fusion.Eric Lerner's Human Ecology locates the revolution in technology represented by fusionpower in the successful evolution of the human species. The programmatic implicationsof fusion power development are demonstrated by Carol Menzel in a detailedexamination of the immediate potential for vastly expanded agricultural production inthe advanced sector in the context of expanded East-West trade.
