Aug. 20 UP) - The nationwide communist strike offensive showed signs of weakening today. Workers in many areas returned to their jobs. A major split devel oped in the powerful central trade union federation. The social democratic govern ment of Premier Karl August Fagerholm, however, remained on jruard. It kept its army and po lice forces on an alert. The f overnment called the wave of strikes a communist maneuver to seize power and seat a red re gime in Helsinki. The soviet - controlled Dress In Moscow continued to call the Hel sinki government's action against the strikers a "bloody suppression of Finnish workers." ) Propaganda Campaign In the third day of the labor crisis the ministry of finance opened a propaganda campaign against communist strikers. Newspaper advertisements warned workers not to heed strike calls and posters attacking the communists were tacked up in the streets. Apparently determined to fight on, the communists rushed a letter to President Juho Paasikivi charg ing the ' strikers' constitutional rights were violated when police dispersed a crowd of workers in Kcmi two days ago. Violated Treaty They also claimed the incident violated Finland's treaty with Russia. The Finnish government has a 10-year friendship and mu tual assistance treaty with the Soviet Union. A typical sign of a break in the strike front came from Tam pere, 95 miles north of Helsinki, where only construction workers walked out.

Howley told a news conference after a four -power meeting on Thursday the Russians are' trying to revive the four-power kom mandarura and regain their veto power in the rule of all Berlin. Commenting on this, Neues Deutschland, organ of the Social Unity (communist) party, said: "In this angry belch flares the whole flury of the cavalry general from Philadelphia because the diplomats did not let him make Berlin worth a war." "No Berliner will cry for Gen. Howley." Neues Deutschland said. "The whole of the Berlin popula tion will breathe more freely when the cavalry general saddles his horse for his ride home. The Russians said they are not trying to revive the kommanda-tura. Mayor Elfstrom Competes Again In Salmon Derby Mayor R. L.

Forestry work ers, lumberjacks and loggers also were working in great numbers after voting to end their strike at several logging points. The longshoremen's strike, how ever, still was effective, and em ployers admitted the construction workers walkout was widely ef fective. The next move on the strike front is the transport work ers walkout, scheduled for Mon day. At the height of the strike wave 33,000 to 45,000 workers were es timated to have walked out. The split in the central trade union federation developed when the council voted eight-to-five to order the communist-led unions to end their strike before Aug. 23 or be expelled from the federa tion. Communist labor leaders were r ep o r t e d squabbling amongst themselves. The Employers' cen tral organization said It received a letter from the transport work ers' union declaring that T. V.
