Newspaper Clippings, 1906-1933

This series consists of one large scrapbook and one folder containing clippings of Mills' articles, which appeared in various newspapers. These materials reflect Mills' service as a member of the Section Baltimore of the Socialist Labor Party, primarily as a correspondent with Latin American countries; he also reported on socialist activities in the Soviet Union and China. In addition, the clippings record Mills' efforts to translate, for the press, works and letters of people such as Lenin, Gorky, and Tolstoy; his professional activities as a lecturer; and his political life. The scrapbook is arranged primarily by subject; loose clippings have been placed in a folder following the scrapbook.
