CPUSA gives its archives to University An original copy of Joe HillÂ’s pencil-written will, `My Will is easy to decide/ For there is nothing to divideÂ’, written the night before a Utah firing squad executed him in 1915 and later put to music, is among the gems in a vast collection of papers and photographs donated by the Communist Party USA to New York University.

The material from the entire period of the Party’s history includes secret code words for branches and actions, underground names of leaders, personal letters, and directions for how good party members should behave (no charity work, for instance). The donation includes 20,000 books, journals and pamphlets and a million photographs from The Daily Worker¹s archives. Hardly any of the files were reviewed by the Party before being given away.

The collection is so vast that it will take years to catalogue. Many new dissertations and books are expected to result from the new archives, which are likely to revise the obsessive focus of external historians in the past on the Party’s supposed subservience to Moscow, neglecting Communists work in organising labour and fighting racism. Much contentious `scholarship’ is now expected to be massively revised. Much personal insight is likely to come from the huge number of files of detailed complaints of police brutality against African-Americans and “piles” of prison correspondence from activists.
