Are we talking of the same Common Sense magazine? My source says that the magazine started in 1947 and ended in 1972. This is only one quotation:

Common Sense was founded in 1947 by Conde McGinley and published by the Christian Educational Association, Union, New Jersey. McGinley began publishing a paper in 1946 called Think. The following year McGinley’s paper became a tabloid and the name was changed to Common Sense.[2] Common Sense began as a comparatively mainstream anti-communist conservative newspaper for those times, and billed itself as “leader in the nation’s fight against communism.”

it took me a little to solve the riddle. There was a Common Sense (newspaper), a nationalist paper founded by Conde McGinley in New Jersey. The paper was subtitled The Nation’s Anti-Communist Newspaper and was issued semi-monthly from 1947 till 1972. Merwin K. Hart was the publisher. (Reference: The Politics of World Federation: From World Federal Governance, by Joseph Preston Baratta, page 490).

I guess that the new article Common Sense (newspaper) could be created?

Online source?

Hi! Does anyone know of an online source for backcopies? I want to get a more direct link or at least confirmation from someone who has at least seen and verified the Smedley Butler quote that is cited as published in Common Sense Vol. 4, No. 11 (November 1935), pp. 8-12.
