moJms of publication, the Nebraska Dispatch
newspaper has discontinued publication.
Dispatch member Tom Headley said staff members
instead decided to use their "energy and resources
toward building a revolutionary political party based on
socialism and the philosophy of Nikolai Lenin.
"A group of revolutionary socialists has formed, and
that group has moved beyond the limitations of news
paper work," staff member Bill Arth wrote in the
Dispatch's final February issue.
With a circulation of 2,000 a month and a core staff ot
about 10, the Nebraska Dispatch at times concentrated on
controversial political issues. Headley said some local
issues it dealt with were the projectionists' strike, the
unionization drive at Russell Stover Candies, Inc. and the
Association of Builders and Contractors move into
Lincoln.
JEven the paper's advertising reflected its philosophy.
Headley said the staff was selective in choosing ads and
would not run sexist or racist advertisements.
Despite the advertising limitation, Headley said, the
Dispatch did not fold for financial reasons. Although the
paper initially was distributed free or with donation, the
staff later decided to charge 15 cents.
"We weren't publishing for the sake of making it a
commercial success," he said.
All editorial decisions on the paper were made by the
staff, Headley said, and there was no editor.
None of the staff members was paid, he said. They
worked "because they thought it was important to do,"

The Dispatch staff originally was comprised of Lincoln
Gazette reporters who split to publish a more "political"
newspaper, Arth said in his February Dispatch story
The Gazette was left with one member, Ron
Kurtenbach, one of the current editors.
Kurtenbach said he thougnt trie Dispatch originally had
some important articles, but it ('became less and less i
service to the people."
The Dispatch did not offer enough variety, he said, be.
cause it carried too much "hardline rhetorical exercise."
When the Dispatch started publication, Headley said,
the paper tried to appeal to a large audience, but he said
the staff later aimed at issues with socialist principles.
He said the Dispatch then became more of a "theor
etical journal rather than a mass consumption new
paper."
That was in September 1975, after numerous staff
members had converted to Leninism, according to Arth's
February article.
Headley said about half of the staff members, including
himself, soon will be moving from Lincoln, although he
said they haven't decided where. They may continue to
publish periodic pamphlets and newspapers as party
propaganda, he added.
Headley said they want to build a party that "can ri
to the task of abolishing capitalism."
Kurtenbach said he did not know whether any of the
Dispatch staff would join the Gazette. The Gazette
currently has five staff members and some free-lance
writers, he said.
