Tories Asserts
Green of AFL
By The Associated Prsm
Both labor and farm leaders
took advantage of Labor day
Monday to call for political co
operation and to flay communism.
They included: j
Philip Murray, president of the
iCIO. charged the steel industry
with taking the lead in saying
"no" to what he said were labor's
legitimate : demands. In Labor
day speech broadcast from Pitts
burgh, Murray said other Indus
tries have i"arrogahtly', followed
this lead.
A blast at communism came
from AFL President William
Green, in an address at San Diego,'
Calif. Green coupled with com
munism what he called "toryism,
promoted 'by a reactionary com
bination in congress."
In this connection, he spoke of
the Tafta and the Byrds" a
reference to Sens. Robert A. Taft
(R-Ohio) and Harry F. Byrd (D
Va). ;
Tories profess to hate com
munism,". Green said, "but con
sciously or unconsciously they are
.through legislative action draw
ing working people into the ranks
of the communist party.
Through other speeches, made
by both labor spokesmen and rep
resentatives of the Truman ad
ministration, ran the theme that
labor and I agricultursmust co
operate in the coming year's con
gressional elections.
This was the keynote of a din
ner held at Chicago by the AFL
political arm. Labor's league for
political education. Secretary of
Agriculture Brannan, delivering
the principal speech, said:
"From the economic standpoint
. . farmers and workers have
every reason for unity. . . . Wages
snd farm income go down to
gether when there is a depres
sion ...
"Since workers and farmers
onstitute by far the majority of
the American people, the respon
sibility for our national future
rests particularly in their hands.1
Brannan said the proposed new
farm program ; which bears his
name and which congress has
shelved St least for this year will
help both fanners and workers
by protecting farm income and
giving the worker-consumer a
fair break.

For U.S. Patrol
FRANKFURT. Germany- SeDt.
f-i-U. S. constabulary forces
and assailants hidden in woods ex
changed more than 600 shots in
an apparently, bloodless skirmish
on the Czechoslovak border, it was
disclosed today.
Germany witnesses and Amer
ican military authorities said the
machine-gun and pistol shooting
near Hof this week end seemed
to be aimless and purposeless.
Constabulary officers gave this
explanation:
An armored vehicle of the U.
S. zone border patrol was fired
on by persons on the Czechoslovak
frontier Friday night. The Amer
icans ignored the attack.
Early yesterday, a six-man Am-1
erican constabulary patrol in the
same area found itself in what
appeared to be an ambush. Heavy
fire was opened on the Americans
from points near the border, which
isNpt clearly defined at that point..
The assailants, apparently Czech
border police, used pistols and
automatic weapons. The Ameri
cans replied with pistols and ma
chineguns. The attackers were hidden In a
wood some yards inside the Am
erican! zone. The American patrol
radioed for help.
Another patrol reached the
scene and together the Americans
forced the attackers to flee into
Czechoslovakia after four hours
of firing.
U. S. military government of
ficials in Bavaria said most of the
shooting came from the American
side of the frontier.

Real Commies
For Yugoslavia
MOSCOW, Sept 8 -UP)- The
Moscow press and radio today
played up a Cominform article cal
ling for a new communist party to
rise in Yugoslavia and quickly
overthrow Premier Marshal Tito.
It called Tito a repulsive bandit
Fascist gang leader and a com
munist in name only.
Foreign observers considered
the prominence given to the
article in Pravda and on the radio
was a significant step in the war
of angry words between the Krem
lin and Tito.
' The observers figured a new
party In Yugoslavia would have to
work underground in peril of
Tito's forces but ' would be sup
ported by Cominform countries
as their true ally.
