Title

Il popolo d'Italia non vuole la guerra! Italo-Americani, Uomini e donne! Gli Stati Uniti Debbono Rimanere Fuori della guerra /The People of Italy do not Want War! Italian American Men and Women: The U.S. Must Stay Out! New York: New York State Committee of the Communist Party, [1940].

Description

This two-sided handbill was issued in Italian on one side and in English on the other. It was signed by Peter V. Cacchione, the first New York City Council member who was a communist, and three others.

The handbill urges the U.S. to stay out of World War II, but starts with noting that Italy is again driven into imperalist war to "satisfy the ambitions of Italy's bankers, the big landlords and Mussolini's imperialist brothers."

On the Italian side of the handbill, readers are urged to "Leggete [read] il DAILY WORKER e il SUNDAY WORKER!" That exhortation is lacking on the English-language side.
