EIGHT MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday. July 31. 1945
PLAN TO RENEW
CLASS WARFARE
Break with Truman Adminis
tration Next Expected
Step: Foster To Lead.
Washington, July 31 (U.R)
American communists are under
new management today and pre
paring to renew their class war
fare here at home just as soon
as Japan is licked.
Next expected development Is
an open break with the Truman
administration.
A three-day convention of the
Communist Political Association
ended Saturday night in New
York. The communists an
nounced yesterday that they had
deposed Earl Browder, their long
time leader, and had put William
Z. Foster at the head of affairs.
Foster is a veteran class war
maker. They also announced the
death of the CPA and the re
birth of the community party
a political organization.
Cooperation Recen
The party went out of the po
litical business in May 1944 un
der Browder's leadership and
turned itself into an "associa
tion." At that time it announced
a program of cooperation with
private enterprise and the Cap
italistic Society which distin
guishes the economy of the
United States. Foster protested
at the time and now after 14
months has reversed the 1944 de
"cision. All of this was accom
plished by aid of a bitter denun
ciation of Browder and his poli
cies written by Jacques Duclos,
a French communist leader, who
recently returned to Paris from
Moscow.
Browder Is being sent by the
communists to a spiritual Si
beria, although his party mem
bership evidently was not can
celled. This change In the direc
tion of communist thinking is
the third spectacular reversal of
the party line in four years.
Sabotaged Defense
From the moment of the out
break of the war in September,
1939, until June, 1941, American
communists conducted an aggres
sive and bitter campaign of par
ades, demonstrations and strikes
against American aid to Great
Britain and, later, production for
our own national defense. For
days before Hitler's unexpected
invasion of the Soviet Union on
June 21, 1941, communist-in
spired demonstrators had been
picketing the White House in
protest against the "imperialist
war." Their banners contained
such slogans as "The Yanks Are
Not Coming."
When word came that mid
night of the German blow at
Russia almost immediately the
communist party line here be
came 100 per cent anti-Hitler
nd 100 per cent pro-war. They
whooped it up for an all-out na
tional effort to lick fascism. Rep.
Vito Marcantonio, American la
bor party, N. Y who is a leading
spokesman for communism in the
United States, had for some
time been casting solo votes in
the house against all national de
fense measures.
Marcantonio reversed himself
as speedily as had the paradcrs.
None was louder . after we got
into the war than he in demand
ing a "second front" to case the
German pressure on Russia.

office of the Social security
board when he is 65, whether or
not he intends to retire.

ered employment, should visit

Fancy Canned Fruit
Will Sell For Less
Washington, July 31 (U.R)
The retail ceiling prices for
choice and fancy canned fruits
of the 1945 crop will be one or
two cents less in the popular
sizes because the fruits will be
packed in a lighter syrup than
used last year, the Office of
Price Administration said today
The amount of sugar that com
mercial canners may use per
unit of fruits and vegetables was
reduced about 20 per cent below
the amount used last year be
cause of the sugar shortage.

SHARPLY REDUCED
Salem, Ore., Jul 31 (U.R)
Oregon income taxpayers will
have to pay the full amount of
taxes next year, the State Tax
Commission disclosed today al
ter a decision that there can be
no forgiveness rebate on pay
ments.
Money on hand cannot meet
all the expenses of state govern
ment and still permit the for
giveness feature. The state and
county school fund will also not
be paid, as the Commission an
nounced last week. It would
have amounted to approximately
$3,000,000 on the basis of $10
per pupil.
Addition of $5,000,000 to the
state's obligations, for the re
cently voted building fund, was
principal cause of the cut.
The forgiveness feature for the
past tax year was 30 per cent,
and the year before, was 75 per
cent.
Franciscan missionaries, who
played so large a part in west
ern and southern California af
fairs, did not cross Hie Kinrra
