Invitations have been sent out by the N.S.L. and the Student League for Industrial Democracy to Norman Thomas, Socialist candidate for president in 1932, and to Earl Browder, executive secretary of the Communist Party of America, to come to Harvard to address an anti-war meeting on November 9.

An excerpt from the letter to Mr. Thomas, giving the main reasons for the meeting, follows:

"Harvard University is, at present, the scene of a struggle between Fascist and anti-Fascist forces. In the immediate past it has witnessed the much-heralded visit of Ernest Hanfstaengl, the offer of the so-called Dr. Hanfstaengl scholarship, and its refusal, the visit of the German battleship "Karlsruhe," the visit of the Italian Fascist students, and a number of Anti-Fascist demonstrations. Aside from outside influences, Fascism is being preached from within by large sections of the Alumni, and by reactionary elements of the student body, such as the Harvard CRIMSON. As you know, this Fascist offensive is part of the campaign to prepare students for war."
