Sinclair writes about his new book, "The Way Out: What Lies Ahead for America." He also write a great deal about his book "Upton Sinclair Presents William Fox", and its influence on not only the United States but the world as well. He also writes about various opinions on the book, including praise from Congressmen and foreign leaders. Sinclair also writes about his film "Thunder Over Mexico". ; UPTON SINCLAIR LOS ANGELES WEST BRANCH CALIFORNIA May 1933 Dear Friend: I didn't expect to send you another circular this spring; but it appears that I have written another book! So many persons have been asking me for something on the present crisis, and the way out. What do I think about Roosevelt and his policies? Is this the final breakdown, or can capitalism make one more boom? I wrote a short article on the subject, "An Open Letter to the American People' and sent it to Fulton Oursler, editor of "Liberty,' who called me on the phone from New York, calling it "the greatest piece of statesmanship since Lincoln's Gettysburg address." "Liberty" is to publish it in the issue of June. 10. I decided to cover the subject in more detail in a little book. It is the same kind of thing as "Letters to Judd;" except it is addressed to a young capitalist of my acquaintance, one who is troubled by the problems which have fallen onto his shoulders. "Letters to Perry," I called it, but later decided on a more explicit title: "The Way Out: What Lies Ahead for America." My arguments are addressed, not merely to capitalists, but to all business men and professional people, the white collar class who make up the greater number of my readers. I tell them what they are up against, and what they have to do about it, whether they like it or not. The book is to be published by Farrar & Rinehart in New York, and I will have my own edition. The price is one dollar postpaid. Some of my friends have protested that the price of "Upton Sinclair Presents William Fox" is too high for them; I cannot yet reduce the price, since I haven't paid my debts to the publisher, but I can give you a combination price. You may have the two books, both clothbound and also a cloth copy of "The Spokesman's Secretary," one of my stories of which I have an oversupply; all for $3.05. You may be interested in news regarding the Fox book. A new edition is ready, with index, and a new jacket, prepared by an expert in New York. It is printed on a better quality of paper--I don't know about these matters, but some of my friends attended to it. Nobody has tried to ban the book, and nobody has sued me for libel-a great relief to my wife, who is more concerned with taking care of her husband than with selling a hundred thousand copies of a book. The great press of New York boycotted the work for the most part ; but papers all over the country-not quite so close to Wall Street-have been giving it a great deal of attention. The editor of the Bridgeport (Conn.) "Herald' telegraphed me, asking my price for serial rights, and I answered that I would leave it to his conscience. This suggested an idea, and I sent a circular to the managing editor of every daily paper in the United States, and to many weeklies, also labor and farm papers, offering them the book. In a few days I have received more than 500 replies, asking for a copy for examination. The book broke into the Congressional Record, Page 4922, Issue of February 23, 1933. I quote: Mr. Borah: Mr. President, may I interrupt the Senator? The Vice President : Does the Senator from Nebraska yield to the Senator from Idaho? Mr. Norris: Certainly. Mr. Borah : I want to ask the Senator if he has seen a book just published by Upton Sinclair on Wall Street, entitled. "Upton Sinclair Presents William Fox?" Mr. Norris: Yes, I have seen the book. Mr. Borah: I think it is one of the most remarkable stories in regard to such matters that I have ever read. Mr. Norris : I have not yet read all of it. but the part which I have read indicates that it is a very remarkable story. Recently I received a letter from Congressman Brooks Fletcher of Ohio. saying that many congressmen wanted to read the book, but could not get it because of the demand for the copies in the Congressional Library. If I had been a good business man, I might have suggested that the Congressional Library place an order at our wholesale rates. But being more concerned with making the book known, I sent a free copy to every congressman and senator, a total of 531 books. Congressman Fletcher stated that they wanted to read it "before legislation may be presented dealing with the matter which your book treats. Many of us feel that legislation on the issues presented in the book is of vital importance at this time." The sales of the book have been good, considering the state of the country. Seventeen days after publication Brentano listed the book as number 2 among the best-selling non-fiction books-and then went into bankruptcy, owing me a trifle over $500 ! On March 20 the New York "Times" listed it among the three best-selling nonfiction books in half a dozen of the leading New York bookstores. You might ask the New York "Herald-Tribune Books," the New York Sun and the "American," why they have not reviewed this best-selling work. Also, don't overlook "Time" and the "Literary Digest;" also the "Christian Science Monitor," which not only has failed to review the book, but rejected a paid advertisement which 1 submitted to it. (I have just received a very courteous letter from the editor of the "Monitor," promising to review this decision. I await the out come.) My English publisher is afraid of the book, and apparently I am not going to get a publisher over there. I sent out review copies, and am receiving columns of reviews all of them enthusiastic. "Everyman" gives the book an entire page. The Birmingham "Gazette" says: "If only a tenth of the facts given are true, the book is a damning record of crookery in the highest places. Let Wall Street read it-and writhe!" From Moscow comes a two column review in the "Daily News,' the English-language paper, which says: "No more daring exposure of the machinations of high finance -with the names of innumerable worthy living gentlemen included, despite all laws of libel-has ever been penned. It is undoubtedly the most detailed and vivid recording that I have ever read or am likely to read of the means by which finance capital works." 1 wrote in my last letter that I had added the German ex-Kaiser to my list of readers. Now I am pleased to enroll the King of Belgium. Writing in the New York "Times," Leo Ferrero quotes King Albert as follows: "America has, also, a great many first-rate artists in every field. Her novelists interest me especially; they are so intensely alive, so full of strength. Dreiser, for example, and the two Sinclairs-I mean Sinclair Lewis and Upton Sinclair." They are burning my books now in Germany, but as several million copies have been sold there, I doubt if the Nazis can find them all. While I am writing this, Gandhi is in the midst of a three weeks' fast, and my readers will be interested in the following passage from a letter by Lewis Browne, author of "This Believing World," "Blessed Spinoza," etc. Browne, who is making a tour of the world, writes from Colombo, Ceylon : "We've just come down from Sabarmati in the Jugerat Country where we lived for some days in Gandhi's Ashram – a Sanskrit word meaning monastery. There his closest followers live in starkest simplicity. . We went there to learn what we could of the fight for India's freedom-but stayed to tell about Upton Sinclair. For we at once discovered you were-judging by the books in the small library of the Ashram -the favorite author of those people. Narainadas Gandhi, a nephew of the Mahatma, informed us that the great man had read most if not all of your works, and was intensely interested in you as a person. We traveled 400 miles to Poona in the hope of talking with Gandhi-his followers told us to be sure to tell him what little we knew about you while in his presence-but the prison authorities absolutely refused to let us come near him." I am happy to tell you that the Eisenstein Mexican picture, for which my wife and I assumed responsibility two and a half years ago is at last completed, and is a gorgeous work. Rob Wagner tells me that he is citing it in "Liberty" as a "four-star picture." He writes concerning it: "In my opinion 'Thunder Over Mexico' will prove to be one of the great, if not the greatest, picture of 1933. It has the beauty of 'Tabu,' terrific drama with the feeling of absolute authenticity, and as thrilling a finish as I've ever seen." I don't yet know how this picture will be released, but you will hear about it before long. Try to get it in your local theatres. I have a share in the profits, and hope it may enable me to carry out my long-delayed plan of putting a set of my books into public libraries throughout the world. I got the Sinclair Foundation ready for this purpose, expecting that the picture would be completed in less than a year. We have been through a long series of trials, but at last here is "Thunder Over Mexico,' a masterpiece of the film art, and millions of people will be rewarded for our troubles as promoters. Sincerely, Upton Sinclair P.S. Booktrade please note to order "The Way Out" from Farrar and Rinehardt, New York

Sinclair writes about his upcoming book "Jimmie Higgins" and details about it being published, along with prices and other information. He includes reviews of "Jimmie Higgins" and "The Profits of Religion". ; UPTON SINCLAIR PASADENA CALIFORNIA Dear Friend : I wish to inform the readers of "Upton Sinclair's" concerning "Jimmie Higgins". Last spring it appeared that the war was going to last a long time, 'and that "Jimmie Higgins" would have to stand by the job and be killed in France. But now the face of the world is changed; the Kaiser is down and out, and they have taken "Jimmie Higgins" and sent him to Russia to fight against his Russian comrades, even though war was never declared against them. So our friend Jimmie Higgins has been made into a Bolshevik. Thinking that Jimmie's point of view ought to be known as quickly as possible, I have arranged to have the book published early in April. I have found it impossible to reach the regular book-trade myself, and I think that "Jimmie Higgins" ought to reach this trade, so that non-Socialists may hear his story. Accordingly I have arranged with a firm of publishers in New York to handle the book for the trade. I am to have an edition of my own, which I may sell to my readers, giving them the advantage of wholesale rates, if they are willing to help in distributing the book to their friends. I enclose some circulars with opinions, which you will find useful if you wish to get up a club of purchasers. Orders should be sent promptly, so that we may know how many to print, and so that delay may be avoided. It is requested that you use the enclosed blank. Prices of "Jimmie Higgins": Single copy, $1.70 postpaid; 5 copies, $5.33, express collect; 25 copies, $25.33, and 100 copies, $96.00, express or freight collect. I am able to make the following special combination offer : One copy each of "Jimmie Higgins", "The Profits of Religion", and "King Coal", all in cloth. for $3.35, postpaid. Cash must accompany all orders. Sincerely, UPTON SINCLAIR. P. S.-I have received an offer from the publishers of "King Coal" to sell me the plates and copyright, which would make it possible for me to offer this book in cloth and paper at the same price as "The Profits of Religion." Please state how many copies you would take, so that I may decide if I can risk the venture. A book which has been absolutely boycotted by the literary reviews of America. THE PROFITS OF RELIGION By UPTON SINCLAIR A Study of Supernaturalism as a Source of Income and a Shield to Privilege; the first examination in any language of institutionalized religion from the economic point of view. "Has the labour as well as the merit of breaking virgin soil," writes Joseph McCabe. This book has had practically no advertising and only two or three reviews in radical publications; yet, three months after publication, we are printing the twenty-sixth thousand, and are selling three hundred copies per day. The pastor of the People's Church of Louisville, Kentucky, writes: "I had occasion to make a speech about your "Profits of Religion" to our People's Church, and am reporting herewith the sale of two hundred and forty volumes, our protest and appreciation of your masterly pen in the service of real religion." From the Rev. John Haynes Holmes: "I must confess that it has fairly made me writhe to read these pages, not because they are untrue or unfair, but on the contrary, because I know them to be the real facts. I love the church as I love my home, and therefore it is no pleasant experience to be made to face such a story at this which you have told. It had to be done, however, and I am glad you have done it, for my interest in the church after all, is more or less incidental, whereas my interest in religion is a fundamental thing…Let me repeat again that I feel that you have done us all a service in writing of this book. Our churches today, like those of ancient Palestine, are the abode of Pharisees and scribes. It is as spiritual and helpful a thing now as it was in Jesus' day for that fact to be revealed." From Luther Burbank: "No one has ever told 'the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth' more faithfully than Upton Sinclair in 'The Profits of Religion.'" From Louis Untermeyer: "Let me add my quavering alto to the chorus of applause of 'The Profits of Religion'. It is something more than a book—it is a Work!" From W.L. George, the English novelist: "I have just finished 'The Profits of Religion'. I think it a work of the highest sincerity and regret only that 140 years after the death of Voltaire it should still be necessary that your brave pen be enlisted against venal mysticism. I entirely agree with you that while the religious impulse is human and lovely, the dogmatic faiths that have made a corner in it are hypocritical in intention and that they purposefully apply anaesthetics to the human intellect, that they conspire to keep it in ignorance, therefore in subjection to the masters, noble or wealthy, of a world made wretched." From Gertrude Atherton: "'The Profits of Religion' is both erudite and courageous—aside from its compelling interest." From Sinclair Lewis: "I've been reading 'Profits of Religion' again. It isn't merely that the book is so everlasting sound—its so delicious as well—literally delicious! You can taste the fine flavor of humor which alone can dispose of the pompous asses who pretend to be the only authorized traveling salesmen of All-Unknowable. I don't know any book like it." A great many persons not in the book business have found it possible to sell this work at a profit. A great many friends of social justice have found it easy to form a club. As we are preparing this circular, there comes a letter from R. C. Kroll, associate editor of the "Trades Council Union News", of St. Louis: "Got my thirty-five books yesterday and have disposed of most of them already." 315 pages. Single Copy, paper, 50c postpaid; three copies $1.25; ten copies $3.00. By freight prepaid, 25 copies or more at 25 cents per copy. Single copy, cloth $1.00 postpaid; three copies, $2.25; ten copies $6.00. By freight prepaid, 25 copies or more at 50 cents per copy. JIMMIE HIGGINS A STORY. By Upton Sinclair. (To Be Published March 30th) Jimmie Higgins is the fellow who does the hard work in the job of waking up the workers. Jimmie hates war-all war, and fights against it with heart and soul. But war comes, and Jimmie is drawn into it, whether he will or no. He has many adventures-strikes, jails, munitions explosions, draft-boards, army-camps, submarines and battles. "Jimmie Higgins Goes to War" at last, and when he does he holds back the German army and wins the Battle of "Chatty Terry". But then they send him into Russia to fight the Bolsheviki, and there "Jimmie Higgins Votes for Democracy". A picture of the American working-class movement during the four years of world-war; all wings of the movement, all the various tendencies and clashing impulses are portrayed. From "the Candidate". I have just finished reading the first installment of "Jimmie Higgins" and I am delighted with it. It is the beginning of a great story a story that will be translated into many languages and be read by eager and interested millions all over the world. I feel that your art will lend itself readily to "Jimmie Higgins", and that you will be at your best in placing this dear little comrade where he belongs in the Socialist movement. The opening chapter of your story proves that you know him intimately. So do I and I love him with all my heart, even as you do. He has done far more for me than I shall ever be able to do for him. Almost anyone can be "The Candidate", and almost anyone will do for a speaker, but it takes the rarest of qualities to produce a "Jimmie Higgins". These qualities are developed in the "lower class" only. They are denied those who know not the trials and privations, the bitter struggle, the heart-ache and despair of the victims of man's inhumanity to his less fortunate fellow-man. You are painting a superb portrait of our "Jimmie" and I congratulate you. EUGENE V. DEBS. From a Teacher Have just finished reading "Jimmie Higgins". The tears are still in my eyes, tho the laugh got mixed up with them when I got to Eleeza Betooser! (I give "lessons to foreigners" during the winter, whose experience has given point to that mix-up.) I became so absorbed in Jimmie that the newly kindled fire in my little air-tight went out for lack of attention to the draft, and when I got to the end of Debs' speech, I discovered that I was hugging a tepid stove. BLANCHE WATSON. From Mrs. Jack London Jimmie Higgins is immense. He is real, and so are the other characters. I'm sure you rather fancy Comrade Dr. Service! The beginning of the narrative is delicious with an irresistible loving• humor; and as a change comes over it and the Big Medicine begins to work, one realizes by the light of 1918, what you have undertaken to accomplish. The sure touch of your genius is here, Upton Sinclair, and I wish Jack London might read and enjoy. CHARMIAN LONDON, From a Socialist Artist Jimmie Higgins' start is a master portrayal of that character. I have been out so long on these lecture tours that I can appreciate the picture. I am waiting to see how the story develops. It starts better than "King Coal". RYAN WALKER. From a "Jimmie" Well, the October Magazine is O. K. and Jimmie Higgins 100 per cent. To a fellow that carried a Red Card 14 consecutive years it seems like reincarnation. J. W. POWELL, Alameda, California. From a Novelist I have been intensely interested in "Jimmie Higgins", as it gives me a progressive point of view that I could not get elsewhere, and I get the whole picture owing to your skill, with no effort on my own part. GERTRUDE ATHERTON. Prices of "Jimmie Higgins": Single copy, $1.70, postpaid; 5 copies, $5.33; express collect; 25 copies, $25.33, and 100 copies, $96 express or freight collect. All books will be shipped from Ncw York or vicinity. Address: UPTON SINCLAIR, Pasadena, California.

Sinclair promises Markham a novel and writes about another book to read. ; Sept 30 '10 My Dear Friend Markham: A thousand thanks for your kind words. No, Kelly's big book "Government etc." has to be read by itself. I shall be interested to see your opinion of it. I am writing D.P. & Co. to send you the Midas [?] Rep. I shall have a big fat novel for you soon! Sincerely U Sinclair

Sinclair requests a list of influential works on the working-class movement to use for a new publication series being put together by the American Fund for Public Service. Sinclair also requests written opinions if possible. ; UPTON SINCLAIR PASADENA CALIFORNIA April 23, 1925. To FRIENDS OF THE RADICAL AND LABOR MOVEMENT: The American Fund for Public Service has voted to finance the publication of a series of standard works of literature and education in the service of the movement for workers' emancipation. The series is to contain two hundred titles, to be put upon the market at the lowest possible prices. It will be known by some such title as "The Workers' Classics," "The Radical Classics," or "The People's Classics." I have been asked to become editor of the series; an advisory editorial board of twenty or thirty persons will be appointed. The first step toward the undertaking is the preparing of a list of titles for inclusion in the series, and the purpose of this letter is to ask your assistance. Let me point out that this series, when completed, will involve an investment of a large sum of money, not less than a hundred thousand dollars. It will constitute a permanent treasure of the labor movement throughout the English-speaking world. It is proposed to spare no pains to make the series of the utmost possible usefulness, and to this end it is hoped that you will give your share of guidance at this preliminary stage. The series will be all-inclusive and entirely non-partisan, as regards factions and schools of thought in the working-class movement. The classics of the Socialist, Communist, Anarchist, Single Tax, Co-operative, and all other wings will be represented. The series will include fiction, poetry, drama, history, philosophy, politics, economics, finance. The sole test of inclusion will be whether the work contributes ideas or information likely to be of service to the awakening workers. The series will include translations from works in foreign languages, and will endeavor to be international in point of view; but aiming to serve that public which uses the English language, it will necessarily include a larger percentage of works representing the English and American points of view. We ask you to take the time to make us a list of all works which you think should be included in these two hundred volumes. Make your range of selection wide, including everything which might by any possibility go in, and leaving it for the editorial board to do the work of eliminating. We should also appreciate having the names and addresses of other qualified persons who might be willing to make suggestions. In the case of works likely to be unknown to an American committee, we ask the names and addresses of publishers, and any information or opinion you care to give concerning each work. It is asked that you underscore those titles which in your opinion should certainly be included. It is asked that you be as prompt as possible, in order that the mass of data may be effectively assembled. It is also hoped that you will not expect personal replies to letters on the subject, because this is a task beyond the capacity of a single editor. The receipt of all replies will be acknowledged by a form letter, and you may then rest assured that your suggestions are receiving consideration. The money has been formally voted, so there is no possibility of your labor being wasted. On the sheet enclosed you will find a list of suggested works and authors. This is a transcription of notes which I have jotted down occasionally, while thinking over this proposed series. It must be understood that the list does not pretend to be complete; it is merely one man's suggestions, submitted with the idea that it may be the means of starting your own mind to work, and perhaps saving you some time. Please underscore such works in my list as you think should positively be included; and be sure to put your name and address at the bottom of the sheet. In the case of authors listed without any works, you are invited to suggest such works as seem to you most suitable. Yours for the cause of Workers' Emancipation, UPTON SINCLAIR.

Grierson writes to Markham about an array of topics including various social issues and the financial independence of writers and poets and how it restrains them from criticizing certain men and writing about certain topics. ; 11 Cambridge Parade Twickenham, April 26th 1910 Dear Mr. Markham, As I am not in the mood for writing my next New Age article, I shall now send you a line, having, this morning received your letter of the 19th night. I am glad you sent me that literary portion of the American containing your most interesting review of Mrs. Cox's remarkable book which makes one wish to read it and to know the woman. She is even a rarer mortal than some would suppose. A woman who refuses to be humbugged!!! Never did literature need such writers more than at present especially in America, where cheap optimism almost rules in all the camps. I hope her book will have the public it deserves. Were it not that America contains men and women who know the difference between reality and make-believe serious minds would think long before deciding to tackle a landing in New York, even for a brief visit. And yet, when certain things have to be done, one can only do them sur place and in person. Five minutes talk often does more than all the books and letters ever written. Here in London I have held myself almost as a recluse for the past fifteen years, until Mr. Orage and The New Age have, in a measure forced, me to show myself here and there, once a week to his friends and certain contributors; but I am not in love with the cities and the hurrying crowds and the hustling Reportorial news gatherer and would do anything to avoid the interviewer. Properly speaking we do not have them in London, excepting for actors and politicians, and London is a place where one can remain silent and obscure just as long as one pleases and that is a great mercy. I learn with satisfaction the news that you are founding a Poetry Society. It is a happy inspiration. Of course it will flourish so long as the literary snob does not creep in and take control. The highly respectable American with his immoral Puritanism is infinitely worse than our respectable hypocrit. Fear most three things: Puritanism, bohemianism, and snobbery. I succeeded in writing my Santa Croce essay before I left Florence but the weather was both cold and wet beyond anyones belief and I was very glad to get back after a two months visit. Mr. Herron I see has written an article on Roosevelt for the New Age, but it seems to me such an article leaves Roosevelt in the same place where he was before. I do not see any use in attacks on men who occupy a place of power in that sense for they continue to occupy their place just as long as conditions and circumstances favor their personality. And besides this it is useless to attack millionaires and others in a personal way, such attacks always rebounding. And further, poets and thinkers who have their own work to do cannot do that work and engage in personal squabbles, etc., etc. Mr. Herron possesses plenty of financial means to leave him perfectly independent to write what and how he pleases, but hundreds of brilliant and gifted artists and writers are not independent in that sense and these are wise in thinking twice before attacking what they cannot change. For myself I try my best to avoid the futile. I see Mr. Upton Sinclair has got out a printed slip addressed to writers everywhere asking for opinions on a very grave problem. He has sent me a copy but I cannot write on that subject; it would require too much and many details and it is a question which would be likes to offend the dignity of sensitive minds in more ways than one. I am still in some doubt as to my movements next month. With best greetings, Francis Grierson

Die vorliegende Diplomarbeit beschäftigt sich mit verschiedenen Aspekten, die den Transfer von Ideologie mittels Übersetzung von einer Ausgangs- in eine Zielkultur beeinflussen. Um dies zu untersuchen, wurde die Zusammenarbeit zwischen der aus Österreich stammenden, kommunistischen Übersetzerin und Schriftstellerin Hermynia Zur Mühlen und dem US-amerikanischen Autor sozialistischer Propagandaliteratur Upton Sinclair herangezogen. Im Rahmen der Arbeit steht die Frage im Vordergrund, inwieweit Ideologie durch Übersetzung in einen anderen Sprach- und Kulturraum übertragen werden kann, und welche Faktoren dabei eine Rolle spielen. So wird von der Hypothese ausgegangen, dass die ideologische Position des Autors gegenüber verschiedener ?Spezialdiskurse?, wie Politik, Soziales, Wirtschaft, etc. durch die Übersetzung von Hermynia Zur Mühlen verändert, das heißt intensiviert oder abgeschwächt wird. Zunächst werden in der Arbeit die politisch-historischen sowie biographischen Kontexte von Autor und Übersetzerin dargestellt. Anschließend folgt eine Aufbereitung der theoretischen Grundlagen, die für die Analyse von Bedeutung sind. Anhand der Kritischen Diskursanalyse nach Siegfried Jäger werden danach Upton Sinclairs Roman 100% The Story of a Patriot und dessen Übersetzung von Hermynia Zur Mühlen auf Textpassagen, die ideologische Positionen gegenüber verschiedener Spezialsdiskurse implizieren, untersucht. ; The present thesis deals with various aspects, which influence the transfer of ideology via translation from one culture into another. In order to analyse this phenomenon the thesis consults the cooperation of the austrian communist translator and author Hermynia Zur Mühlen and the US-american writer of socialist propaganda literature Upton Sinclair. So the most relevant question is to which extent ideology can be transferred into another culture and which factors are essential for this. So the thesis emanates from the hypothesis that the ideologic position of the author to various discourses (which means topics) modifies with the act of translation. That means that the position gets intensified, diminished or completly changed. By means of the critical discourse analysis by Siegfried Jäger the thesis analyses various passages of Upton Sinlairs novel 100% The Story of a Patriot and compares it with Hermynia Zur Mühlens translation. ; vorgelegt von Nadine Granat ; Abweichender Titel laut Übersetzung der Verfasserin/des Verfassers ; Text dt., teilw. engl. ; Graz, Univ., Dipl.-Arb., 2009 ; (VLID)207315
