View source for The Masses

==Introduction==
<html>
The Masses, famously dubbed “the most dangerous magazine in America”, was founded in 1911. It was an illustrated socialist monthly with 10 volumes that became short lived because in August 1917 it was barred from mail by the US government because it critiqued the US involvement in World War I. Was The Masses barred specifically because of this one article or was it barred because its conflicting views with the US government? The Masses was barred not because of its critique of the US involvement in World War I but it was barred because of its unpopular socialist opinions that proved a nightmare for the capitalist US government.  The article critiquing US involvement in World War I was used as a scapegoat to finally silence “the most dangerous magazine in America”.</html>
