Help Request of Some Publishing Houses and Authors from CHP Between 1938-1951 Summarl

Abstract

CHP's taking place in Turkish political history by the declaration of the republic is the beginnig of the "single party'' stage lasting for almost 30 years. A party's reigning for such a long time resulted in viewing the state as the party and the party as the state. Has been so the citzens started apply CHP to find solutions for any problems. CHP's opening "Halkevi" for education and organisation country wide caused total book purchase for the libraries set up there. Therefore, some publishing houses and authors applied the party for their financial problems between 1938-1951 and requested help from CHP for state's purchasing the boks they had published. However, particularly publishing house owners couldn't have a positive response for their application, some other authors couldn't have a help to solve their problems though all their efforts.
