[Michael Pugliese]

   Good histories of pacifism in the 30's in, ""Rebels Against War:The 
American Peace Movement, 1933-1983, " by Lawrence Wittner, 
http://www.temple.edu/tempress/titles/332_reg.html , "The Strangest Dream; 
Communism, Anticommunism and the US Peace Movement, 1945-1963, " by Robbie 
Lieberman which despite the title does have some material on the 30's. And 
Robert Cohen, "When The Old Left Was New, "
on the student radical left of the 30's. And, " Nonviolence in America: A 
Documentary History By Staughton Lynd Paperback / revised ed. May 1995. 
There is a nice coffee table book published in the early 80's, on the 
history of non-violence in the 20th century with lots of photos and accts. 
of actions like the CNVA against nuclear testing but, I'm blanking on the 
title or editor. Try calling a local office of AFSC or WRL in NYC.
