In HALTER WINCHELL's column in the Washington POST newspaper
on Hay 21, 1951, it was stated that MARBANTONIO was trying to arrange
3 trip to Russia "for medical reasons". UFO will not check passport
records in this regard in the absence of instructions from the Bureauor the New York Officee l!
I H A/r
Inasmuch as MARCANTONIO is spending considerable time in
Washington, D.C. now in connection with his activities on behalf of the
Communist Party before the Subversive Activities Control Board, the New
York Office is requested to furnish IFO with a brief resume of the available
derogatory data concerning him and also advise UFO whether he is on
Secuzity Index, etc;

whose principal mass activity is the building of the
American Labor Party is the pre-conditionfbr the develop-

utmost emphasis must be given to a concentration policy -
the building of the American Labor Party in Central
Harlem and the Puerto Rican areas of our city; the
retension and extension of American Labor Party influence
in Representative MABCANTCNIO'S Congressional District
with one of the central objectives being MARCANTONIO'S re-

to racial discrimination incidents. He went on to say that
VM asserted that he had been assured by JACK STACHEL Communist
Party National Committee member! that competent persons would
be"svails1be to assist the»upstate organizers in.Buffa1oP=o92-;

sponsorship of the campaign for WILLIE McGEE, the Mississippi
Negro under sentence of death, which had heretofore been
waged by the Communist Party, VM emphasized that all
accusations of a tyingup between the Communist Party and
the ALP should be denied and challenged with the affirmation
that the ALP-is a bone fide labor party and that the Com-_ v

Confidential Informant T-3, of known reliability,
advised on Hey 2, 1952, that the New York State Committee
of the Communist Party held a meeting from April 15-21,
1952, at a place unknown to the informant. He stated that
the meeting discussed political threats in the United
States, Communist Party policy in the coming elections,i~;%@Negro rights and peace. ,The'informent,steted that the t A ~
Communist"Perty is interested in local Gongressionsl~_> .
elections in an effort to get some voice in Congress ' ~
and that the Communist Party will support favorable
coalition candidates. As a result,_it has come into
sharp conflict with VN and the ALP. According to the in-
formant, the subject feels that Communist Party support
of coalition candidates will sound the death nell of the
ALP. The Communist Party, on the other hand, does not
feel the ALP is strong enough to elect candidates under
its label.

article statesthat VM'S speeohwas excerpted from the I *
Congressional Record and was, perhaps, the last major

to the proposed appropriation for armaments. Among
other things, VM stated that he stood up as the only
member of the House in opposition to our intervention
in the Civil War in Korea; that he did so on the very
day on which the President announced our disasterous
adventure in Korea. He also stated that "the best defense
of America does not lie in this armaments race implementing
this insane program of war for such a race will lead only
to a war which, at best, no one will win but which will
destroy civilization as we know it. The best defense of
America does not lie in the atom bomb. It can be thrown

he had learned on reliable authority that VM spent _,H_

100,000 stickers appealing for peace with China. The

5-informantWstatedthat VM'is a bright; cultured and ruthless fi *
; person.¢ The informant stated that his left-wing sympathies i
are only one facet of his character; that he also has a
deep feeling for his race and for the people he grew up
with, many of whom have since become hoodlums. The
informant stated that VM is very friendly with "hoodlum
elements," and that for a time he controlled Hikers
. Island where the City Penitentiary is located. The
informant said that in a sense he shows~the<"terrificL
w affinitywhich exists between the'underwor1d and the '*
' left wing, both of which operate outside the law." The
informant went on to say that VM will cooperate with
tithe Communist Party on the high -levels, but does not
. want the Party to interfere with his operations on the
- lower levels. For example,-in his election campaigns,
VM will accept help from the Party from a financial and
publicity standpoint, but does not like the Party to send
workers into his election districts, where he has his own
commitments.
