He was about to begin typing it on the very day of his death and had typed the title on the opening page. MaximoffĮDITOR'S NOTE: Comrade Maximoff intended to write an article for these pages, with the title above, but unfortunately that article was never written. With deep affection and gratitude we salute the memory of Celia Goldberg, who for many years was a valiant and uncompromising fighter for freedom and liberty.

By virtue of that wish, expressed orally and not in a written will, her whole estate was generously given to the Free Society Group and the Industrial Workers of the World.
The Free Society Group takes this occasion to extend its cordial thanks for financial and moral support given to it by the Freie Arbeiter Stimme Group of Detroit, Michigan the Washington, D.C., Group the Russian Group of New York Kropotkin Branch 413, Workmen’s Circle, Los Angeles the Boris Yelensky Sixtieth Jubilee Committee, Chicago and many individual comrades throughout the country.Įspecially do we want to thank Carl Goldberg of Chicago for faithful fulfilment of the last wish of his mother, Celia Goldberg, who died on April 25, 1949. Maximoff (whose untimely death on March 16, 1950, was an irreparable loss to the Libertarian movement throughout the world), was a prime mover in the planning of this pamphlet-hence it is fitting to dedicate it to his memory. And the Free Society Group feels that these commentaries have definite historical value.
Yet it will be found that the articles contained herein generally have quite as much point as if they had been published at the intended time-for world conditions today, except for the greater tension caused by the war in Korea, are but little different from what they were then. Publication of such a symposium was planned for the early part of 1949, but for several reasons, which we need not go into here, its issuance was delayed until now.
Request for articles to carry out this purpose were sent to a select list of writers. Late in 1948 the Free Society Group of Chicago decided to mark its quarter of a century of existence by issuing a pamphlet expressing the comments of comrades in various countries about the world scene, as viewed in the light of libertarian philosophy.
