"There is in progress a campaign of mis-
' P0pPcBOHttiOn of the NAACP currently running in the
Daily Worker, the Communist newspaper, All the old
phrases are there. The name-calling has started all
over again. The slanted and angled 'news' stories appear, -
The half-truths and whole lies see print. The object is to
discredit NAACP leadership, local and national; to tear
the Association apart through suspicion and strife; to
take it over, if not obviously, then deviously, so as to
control its elections, meetings, speakers, program, policy
conventions, resolutions, and other puhlic statements.C ommu
"Back in the early thirties the NAACP was on the
receivirg end of some of the fonciest name-calling, and
the most vicious, truth-defying misrepresentation and
slander that has appeared in print, The campaign was
carried on openly by the Communist party and its various
faithful, echoing groups. The occasion was the famous
Scottsboro case which began in 1931, -

"After the Communists had accomplished the
main purpose of building that case into a world-wide g
attack on Western democracy, they found that all the -Big
defendants were still in prison with little likelihood 1
of being released as long as the Communist party
stood as the official defenders. So a Bcottsboro
Defense Comitteo was organized, consisting of even - "or eight organizations, including tho Communiytg. Aneminent cler n the Rev. Fr» Allah Ki¬h*,Ch1m°F5 " ' 4became the cggittoe chairman and thereaftezT almost g £'d
single-handedly, effected the release of most of the .
defendants. With the passing years the Communists
gradually dropped out of the picture.
"By new the Roosevelt era of cooperation
between Russia and America was in full flower, It
is true the Soviets made a pact with Hitler and
during that brief honeymoon Roosevelt won the favorite
Communist title of war-mongdr, but with the German
army's attack on the Soviet Union, the line? changed
literally overnight and Roosevelt's America became
the blessed friend and ally in the war on fascism.
"As the political line changed, so did the
line on Negro Americans, The Comunists abandoned
abruptly their widely-advertised ftght for Negro rights.
nothing must interfere with the war effort, lest
such domestic wranglos hurt the aid to the Soviet Union,
The NAACP, believe it or not, was criticized as being
too militant in its Wartime fights. The Communists
joined the Southerners in saying in effect this is
not the time to fight the:*ace question, we must fight
the war. So American Negroes fought their bitter -
battles against Jim crow in the war and rather well,
too! without the dubious aid of the American Communists,
"Tho wstchword through these years was
cooperation. The NALCP, which had been lashed as
betraying the masses,' as cooperating with the
lynch-bosses, eto., ad nauseam, became tolerable, if
not respectable, in the eyes of American Stalinists.

C "But new everything is changed again,
America is in a cold war with Russia. The American
Communists are busy stirring disaffection, dissension,
and unrest in every segment of American life they can
penetreteq such as labor unions, church bodies, youth
groups, college campuses, comunity organizations, and
Negro groups, including the_NA;CP¢
"The purpose in all this is not to build at
better NAACP to fight more effectively for civil
rights for Negroes under the American Constitution,
using legitimate American methods, but to operate one
more front group to confuse and embarrass Americans
and the American government in the present contest of
ideologies-
"There is no mystery, except to the unthink-
ing and uninitiated, about the Communists program on 1
the Negro, Their characterization of the NAQCP as
'rcformist' reveals the lino: they do. not believe
American democracy can be improved or reformed, hence
anyone who does, who keeps alive a faith in the American
way of life, is a criminal and a 'betrayer of thc_
people, As long as the NAQCP and similar groups exist
and push programs of reform, the Comunist doctrine
takes root slowly, if at all, in the nation's largest
minority group, Hence the NAACP must either be
captured or destroyed, "
"We are not alarmed, In 1931 we-were
bewildered by the utterly unscrupulous and vitriolic
attacks which had no relation to truth. We know new
that everyone who says he is fighting for Negro rights
is not necessarily doing so and if Scettsboro left any
doubts, they were dispelled by the sell-out during the
war. The truth is that the American Comunists fight
only for the Soviet Russia 'line' and for nothing else,
Any other contests in which they seem to be engaged
are merely side efforts which have been end will be!
played up, played down, or abandoned altogether, _
according to the party line of the hour,
"Our NAACP membership, therefore, should be
on guard against this campaign, It should remember
that the Communists do not hesitate to-lie when lies
will serve their purpose, that they are masters of

"misrepresentation through misinterpretation, that i
they prattle about democracy in other organizationswhile maintaining an iron-handed non-democratic '4 procedure in their own party, and that their aim is
to use the Negro and his problems mainly in support
of Communist party policy and only incidentally in
support of Negro rights» _
"This does not moan the Communists should be
fought, as such. They constitute a political party
and have rights under the Constitution as do other
parties, Those rights must be maintained, Free
speech and free assembly must be maintained for all.
Let them enjoy their rights in this democracy and
push their program as well as they can in their own
groups, But their campaign of infiltraticn, disruptie
and destruction of other organizations such as the use
can be prevented if members will not be deceived by'
their words, and will elect the proper officers and
committees, choose the right delegates to conventions,
attend meetings faithfully and out-vote the party q
followers, and see that the resoluticns and public
statements adopted by NAACP groups are NAACP state-
ments in truth, and not those of a group using our
name for its own political purposes."

with the fight for strong trade unions. The resolution
on labor was marred only by provisions prlengingthe partisan feud between the CIO and the unions that
' had been expelled in l9h9 around the issue of the .
presidential elections. The author states that some
of the most important provisions of the labor
resolution were:
1. Gall to all NAACP members who are members
of CIO, AFofL and "non-Communist independent unions '
where there is no color bar to be active and loyal
members".
2. Established "as a matter offundamental
policy" that branches engage in vigorous action to
prevent the use of Negroes and other racial minorities
for striking-breaking purposes during labor disputes.
3. Support to the campaign for a guaranteed
annual wage as being put forward more and more by
various unions.
_ h. Call for a federal minimum wage of
$1.25 an hour and enlarging the coverage of the
minimu wage law to cover all workers.
5= Offered full support to labor unions
in the fight to repeal or defeat state anti-labor
laws called in some states by the name "anti-violence"
or "right to work" laws,
6. Urged a fair employment practices
amendment to the Taft-Hartley Law.
7. Pledges of vigorous support for
organized labor's emand for higher wages to increase
mass buying power. " .

According to the author these labor resolu-
ticns were not much different from the labor resolu-
tions of last year. However, they indicate the -
continuing impress of organized labor on the main
civil rights organization among Negro Americans.

approximately two million Negroes in organized labor
and the labor program of the NAACP against the back-
ground of these two million Negro trade unionists
in their influence on the labor movement, brings to
mind the thought: The fighzfor fullequality would be
irresistible if the labor movement in its entirety had
an active program and civil rights which matched the
NAhCP'a program for labor, _
The author opines that it would be hard to
defeat labor in any of its struggles if the NAACP
labor program was actively pursued in the direction
to collaborate with labor on a full scale basis.
The author finally states that without the full
cooperation of the NAACP and organized labor on the
local level, north and south, freedom will come much.m0re
slowly,
The article dated July 15, 195k states that
the principal speeches and the resolutions of the
h5th convention of the NAACP held recently in Della

colored people have a lot to do with the United States

century a rebellion has been growing among two--
thirds of the people of the world who are colored
against the twin and related evils of racism and
colonialism-¢..If for no other reason than
enlightened selfishness, the white world should have
awakened long since to the fact that long before
the October revolution in Russia in 1917 there was a
bitter revolt against exportation of the raw materials
and peoples of Asia, nfrica and Latin America",
The author states that the delegates at
the convention took a slightly different view of
world affairs. In dealing with "peace and imperial-
ism" the delegates resolved: "Imperialism, the rule
of one nation by another, either directly or through
a satellite or subservient government, is unjust and
a threat to world peace" and the resolution called
for the setting up of free governments in Indo-China,
Tunis, Morocco and other French colonies and asked
that no American troops be sent'te Indo-China unless
it is to protect free and sovereign governments",
A debate developed on two paragraphs in the
"Labor and Industry" resolutions which barred coopera-
tion of the NAACP with the Negro Labor Council and
international unions expelled by the CIO, A motion
to strike the offending paragrahs lost by a show of
hands with about a score of delegates voting to :
strike, However, more than a third of the delegates
present failed to vote either way, _
It is to he ndzed that the National Negro
Labor Council has been designated by the Attorney
General of the United States pursuant to Executive
Order l0hS0,
The article states that many of the delegates
may hvcmqmbed their consciences on the anti-
Communist sections of the resolrtions, but as a whole _

stating that the anti-Communism and foreign policy
