About This Item

Oakland; North Hollywood; Los Angeles: Provisional Equalitarian Club; Equalitarian Register, 1956. Newsletter. 55 issues of the 8.5x11 inch mimeographed newsletter, generally moderate toning with the occasional penciled notation about the date of receipt or the source of the bulletin; a few issues with heavier wear or more uneven toning, many with postal markings and mailing address. Includes the following issues: "Don't Read, Throw Away" no. 11, modifying the title to "Don't Read, Throw Away / Equalitarian Club Bulletin" nos. 12, 13; thence simply the Equalitarian Bulletin, nos. 14-26, 28-39, 43, 44, 46-57, 59-64, and the later issues 91 and 105 (both with cover sheets loose but present). Some issues from the late 1940s have multiple sections, sometimes loose, sometimes stapled together. Also present is a pamphlet on unions from the same organization, in similar format, cover quite foxed, from the late 1940s. Utopian journal geared toward the formation of a world association of Equalitarians, drawing much from Technocracy, the IWW, and Christian economics. Articles discuss reform efforts and utopian movements in various countries, analyze previous efforts such as the Socialist Labor Party, etc.; there is also comparison of the revolution to the arrival of the Messiah, and consideration of such questions as as "Is equality conducive to efficiency?
