About This Item
Howe writes to an unidentified committee about tickets to the committe's upcoming party in Harlem. Howe was an editor for The Living Age from 1923 to 1929 when the magazine was sold. After the sale, the new owner rehired Howe as Editor-in-Chief.
An advocacy journalist in the tradition of New England liberalism, Quincy Howe [1900-1977] helped bring food to striking miners in Harlan County, Ky in 1932; opposed restriction of immigration; and was active in prison reform. As a director of the American Civil Liberties Union from 1932 to 1940, he fought against censorship. But it was in foreign policy matters that Howe drew the most attention in the thirties. A critic of dictatorships of the left and the right, he was sympathetic to the rising nationalist movements in the colonial empires of the Old World. He was a member of the left-wing American League against War and Fascism. In his writings of that time he stressed the dangers of American intervention in another world war.
