Bibliography

Priceless evidence of Fabian activity in organizing labor for the political front was gathered in the Labour Year Book, especially in the issues of 1916, 1919, and 1931. Studies and Reports Series A of the International Labour Organization supplied testimony to the action of Fabians on the International Labour and Socialist scene. Although no effort will be made to publish them, the writer received gracious letters from several Fabians in reply to her 568 Bibliography 569 inquIrIes. The late George Bernard Shaw wrote answers' in red ink between the lines and around the margin of a letter. Besides , t~e information related in the body of this study, there was revealed Shaw's affection for the recently deceased Webb. whose genius Shaw acknowledged having discovered and whose character Shaw confessed he .dramatized. He identified Fabianism with that for which Stalin, among a million others, speaks today.

Mrs. Margaret Cole responded to queries on Fabian history with great kindness. She said the -answers to· the writer's questions would require a book and, indeed, her latest, Growing Up Into Revolution written after the correspondence, has been of great assistance. It has been very painful to disagree at times with this excellent pen-woman. The kindly Alderman A. Emil Davies provided distinctions for defining the Fabian relationships with NewStatesman, and with the London School of Economics. In line with the general help fulness of the people at 11 Dartmouth Street, Mr. J. L. Jolley, Home Research Secretary of the Fabian Society, gave information regarding contacts of visiting Fabians in the United States, listing ADA, CIO-PAC, the Nation, the New Republic, Socialist Party Headquarters, and the League for Industrial Democracy. It was he who stated that J. M. Keynes was a Fabian; but this is not otherwise verifiable. Again, a brief answer from Mr. Andrew Filson verified the continuity of the Fabian News· and the amicable method by which the New Fabian Research Bureau was amal gamated with the parent Society in 1939. Eve Saville answered for Filson, in another brief note and expressed surprise that the names of some whose membership she had taken for granted were not on office lists-e.g., Stephen Spender, and Aneurin Bevan.

Also, A. Lockhurst Scott endeavored to explain that Trades Councils are not by definition affiliated with the Labour Party but he showed the connection between the two elements of the move ment. Ernest Davies, M. P., confirmed the writer's findings from in ternal evidence regarding the Fabianism of The Clarion after 1928. The widow of C. Delisle Burns wrote that she was unable to confirm the rumored association of her husband with the Seven of 1923. Ishbel Ridgely nee MacDonald sent her reply on the ad vertisement of her Plough Inn, Flowers Bottom, Speen, Bucks.

570 Fabianism in the Political Life of Britain 1919-1931 She stated that she was out of touch with everything the questions implied, and did not know to whom one might write for informa tion. Barbara Ward, with apologies, wrote that she had turned the inquiry over to the Fabian Society. It cannot be ascertained that this Catholic Labourite and publicist is a Fabian .. From Freda White of the Research Department of the Daily Herald, and from Odham's Press (which took over The Clarion) came the broad sheet Labour Press Service (Special Jubilee Edition) along with a letter both of some value for this study. Harold Laski, since deceased, replied on the stationery of Roose velt College, Chicago where also are located the headquarters of the League for Industrial Democracy. American Fabians Stuart Chase and Upton Sinclair answered candidly concerning their rather abortive Fabian activities, as did Harry Laidler of the League for Industrial Democracy.

The American Fabian is represented in the Library of Congress by yolume V numbers 7 to 11 with which publication ceased in 1900 when the followers of Bliss threw. the torch to the Bellamy National Clubs. Its little masthead rings with words of Mazzini and William Godwin. Judging from some items its message reached, albeit tenuously, from Elm Street in New York to Alhambra, California. Material of primary importance is also to be found in the numerous memoirs and works authorized by Fabians, and included in the list given below.
