the remark that it is interesting to compare! record as she
sets it forth! with the "superficial reoort 0 e Department of Jus*ice-"
She also states, "The Department is undoubtedly efficient in catching men
with bombs but not the men line this."
These observations are, of course, personal opinions of--msupported by arm facts quoted by her, and the only conclusion that
can be drawn is that she in this manner attempts to discredit the in-
partial and unbiased investigations made by the Bureau.

1},-> tAny attempt to deprive foreign-born Americans of their rights is an attack on American
democracy. The attempted tcrrorization of an entire community of 18,000 people-byseel-ting to intimidate naturalized citizens and non-citizena-can establish a dangerous

Asuedi tor of the Daily W'or.7wr, in 194.; I reported the formation
i the American Committee for Yugoslav Relief. Under this inno-ent guise, the plan was to help Marshal Tito secure control of J j . .9.hat unhappy land. But many persons who are conspicuous as n0n- 92 Communists helped it along. Mrs. Eleanwoosevelt l!CLz11ttC hon- "V ' '
orary ehairma , ml alnong the sponsors were Senator ow Presi~dent! Harry n¬.§Iruman, 'Williarn92Qreen and Philiwurray. ' lThere was also Prita92klay92.-corth. These and other sponsors oppecl ,_/}
out when in the course of time the Committee's domination by the
Reds was learned. But the organization collected $_§,ooo,ooo bel ore »
it was disbanded. The end came in Iuly, 1948, and then it was
dissolved, not because Tito no longer needed help, but because he
had fallen into disgrace with the Kremlin. The new Communist
line all over the world was to denounce him and to starve out his
rc:gimeand this supposedly independent organization acted im-
mediately to cholse oil the flow of dollars to his laailiwiel-c.

program in every detail. -~'- - l .t
Brother James Roosevelt abandoned his lucrative job of window
dressing for the ICCASP when he came to the conclusion that even
I Roosevelt might be misled. He did.n't ght the organization but
in switching his activities to the Democratic Part!" organization in
Caljiornia he announced that he was going to keep that organization
out of the hands of the Communists.
_ At the time that James Roosevelt joined ICCASP he declared
that he had investigated and held numerous conferences regarding
the organization's aims and causes and decided that it was his duty
to support them. _
Since it is apparent now that Roosevelts will admit that they
can be taken in by Communists. other people shoulclnt feel so badly
lf a legislative or congressional investigating committee should
present ndings that certain organizations, which they have been
duped into joining are in fact Communist fronts.
' The fact that the Boosevelts would walk uususpectingly into
organizations manipulated by Communists should convince other
people that they themselves might not be so bright that they wouldn't
be misled into joining a group whose front looked all right but whose
manipulators are not known to them.
Nor should innocent members of the Communist-front groups
be opposed to investigating committees that provide information
about such groups.
The best material the Communists have had to work on in this
Country has consisted of the sincere progressives who would not
knowingly support a dictatorship of Communism nor destroy any
of the democratic privileges which citizens of this Country poses-s
By declaring themselves to be progressives, and announcing
their wholehearted support of causes in which real progrves
believe, the Communists have in the past found it very easy to
deceive many, including even the late President Roosevelt, whom
they now declare was their ideal. ' "
Today Mrs. Franklin Roosevelt, Sr., is participating in an
Eastern Democratic group which intends to keep the Communists
out, while other "progressive" groups are being formed under the
guiding hand of Communists who claim that they are working for
the same things for which Mrs. Roosevelt is working.
The Communist-front leaders in this country are constant]?
schooled in the methods of controlling the action of groups in which
they may be a_ small minority.
They demonstrate their capabilities in labor unions as well as in
political groups and speak in the name of people who are opposed
to the Communism for which they stand. _
p They believe that as they stir up race, religious and class
prejudices they can eventually come into control of this Count?!
of ours.
They will never do it i.t' sincere progressives will do their own
thinking and not be fooled into accepting the leadership of any pd-
eons who hide their real motives behind the 'progressive" label.

The new school, it was learned, will be the center for the follow-
ing propaganda and nancing organs of the Communists:
The workers school, formerly the oicial educational insti-
tution of the party.
The school {or democracy, made up of city school teachers
ousted because they were Communists. This group has denied any
P"-e-~---~--t affiliation. Doctor Selsam is head of this school for
democracy.

UH-AXERICLY ACTIVITIES IN CLLIFOSNIA
clear about China. Brigadier General'Carlson worked with the Chi-
nese Comniunists and he worked with Chiang Kai-shek. He is
convinced if we get out of there it will be settled, and he does not
believe the Russians will go in there. Mr. Latimer says it is not so
much a question of expansion, "but contradiction to a country which
has raised millions and millions of peasants. When you come to
the question of freedom of speech, talge hlegroes shot down in the
South, if you asked them tomo1'rowI said this to Mrs. Roosevelt
once, if there was a certain kind of centralized power to enforce
this-a.sk the Negro if he would like to have this shadowy degree
of freedom instead of material and actual equality, let alone, as I
say, on this question as an average American. Ask the man who
works for the newspapers. Ask him if he believes it. In private he
says so, but if he goes out and says so he has no job. It Seems to me
to be a vet! shadowy freedom. Freedom is a very relative thing.

Q. You testied a moment ago about a comparison of the Soviet
Union and other coimtries.
A Yes.
Q. Is it your opinion that in October, 1917 when the revolu-
tion had its inception that it would have been impossible to nd a
better country to test the principles of Marxism than the Rumia
as it elisted under the Cmrl H
A. No. I would say the best country in the world to test the
principles of Marxism might be the America of today, with its
wealth and so forth. ~
O O I C I I I
Q. Do you ieel that ltiarrist theory as esemplmed in the Soviet
Union today is a dictatorship of the proletariat or a dictatorship
over the proletariat!
A. You have brought up two questions. I will go to the rst
question and quarrel with whether Marx thought it was the per-
fect type. 4 _,
Q- By Chairman 'ienneyJ ; By perfect type I think we had
better modify 1|. by saying highly industrialized.
A. I am coming to the point. As a matter of fact, you know
one of the great breaks among the Marxists wadthat a lot of what
I would call doctrinaire guysyou see it so happens, according to
Marx, in the highest industrialized areas which these Marxists feel
was Germany-so the Russian revolution did not exist.
Mr. Combs: I remember. '
A. This was very extraordinary. $0 I would say, D0; that
Marxist conditions were evolved where proletarians were strong-"
e':t in aiding th: p;:..::.ntry in Russia, and led to one great strug-
gle. But the peasant party of Spiradinova felt it should lead "the
peasant uprising. I think that is one of the weaknesses of Mr.
Nehru in India of its peasants leading. It was Lenin who had
to practically restate in order to justify that position or
plsin why it happened in Russia because by far from being the
strongest link, it was the weakest link. Bo OK. Today I would lay

is worth fighting for, that freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom
from want and freedom from fear, and security in our homes are real and are
to be saved through Victory.
This means that our young people, without discrimination as to class, creed
or color, be given their part in ou war effort, that they have the assistance
and training they need to prepare themselves for that part."

The first speaker was MILES HORTON, Chairman of the Highlander Folk
School at Monteagle, Tennessee who stresled the importance of training the
youth of the nation, both vocationally and in democracy. HORTON also stated
that black youth should have equal opportunities with the white youth.
_ MISS JUNE S. EDDY, Antioch, College, Yellow Springs, Ohio, expressed
regret at the small number of negro representatives on the Panel.
szunmm BROWN, a representative of Black Mountain College, Black
Mountain, North Carolina, arose and made the following statement:
"You can't win a war without a faith that something will arise out ofthe
victory." I don't bhliye that we all understand that for which we are
fighting." _
. LILLIAN SMITH, Editor of the South Today, Clayton, Georgia, stated
that there seems to be an emotional impression among students and that
fighting is a matter offeeling. She said that civilized people must believe
that they are fighting for something and that inasmuch as the negroes had
not experienced any participation in democracy, they could not be expected
to eagerly fight for it. ~

The next General Session of the Conference was held on Monday even-
ing, April 2O, l942 at 5:30 P. M. This session was known as the Cultural
Program and presented PAUL _ROBESON, noted negro singer, together with the
Fisk University Choral Club. Although not announced as part of the program,
ROBESON delivered an address during the program, which considered general prob-
lems of the Conference and made particular reference to the subject of racial
squdity. In closing ROBESON stated: "I hope that he will soon be free to
take his place among the common people. I speak of EARL BROWDER." ROBESON
further alluded to BROWDERS being imprisoned in Atlanta, Georgia and dos-
cribed him as the foremost opponent of Fascism which we have in this country
today. This statement met with great applause from the audience.
Following ROBESON'S concert, MRS. ELEANOR ROOSEVELT presented the
Thomas Jefferson Awards to DR. FRANK PORTER GRAHAM, Honorary Chairman of
the Conference and MARY McLEOD BETHUNE, a member of the Executive Board of the
Evecutivo Board of the Conference.
MRS. ROOSEVELT was introduced by Mayor THOMAS L. CUMMINGS of Nash-
vi]10, Tennessee and the awards were based on outstanding service of GRLHAM
and BETHUNE during the past year for their work in the betterment of general
conditions in the South.
The next general session of the Conference was hold at 9 A. U., On
Tuesday, April 21, 1942 at which time reports were made from the Panels to
the General Conference. at the opening of the session, a number of telegrams
were read, which had been received from various individuals, among whom were
THOMAS E. CASEY, Madison, Wisconsin; WILLIAM E. COLE, Sociology Department of
the University of Tonnessce;JAMES M. LANDIS, Office of Civilian Defense; Justice
HUGO L. BLACK, who received last year's Thomas Jefferson Award at 11: Conference;
TROHLS H. ROBERTS, United States Department of Agriculture; the Honorable
HENRY WALLACE, Vice-President of the United States; BETTY RAY TLYLOR,
President of the Tennessee League of Women Voters.
Later in the session, JUDGE LOUISE O. CHARLTON road telegrams of
congratuhtion from PHLIP MURRAY and JOHN L. LEWIS.
It was apparently the plan that this session would hear individuals
from each respective panel, at which time would be presented the proposals and
resolutions as reached by the Panel Consultants. There was much confusion in
the conduct of the ro am and much disorder resultod~from attempts by_Iarious P 8? -_______nembors of the Conference, to introduce new resolutions from the floor, rather -than discussing those as presented by the Panel Reprcsentatives;~a9292929292k

Ky dear Ire. Roosevelt: .
al a:-: in receipt of a corztunication from
Er. T. V. Vlaehos of Shanghai, China, with whom I
corresponded prior to the war. Ls letter to me
gave a rather vivid account of how he kept his
family together under Japanese occupation and how
he was able to further the musical education of
his little boy. He transmitted with his communica-
tion to me a letter in an envelope addressed to you,
which I cm forwarding herewith.
Incidentally, I want to congratulate you
for the grand account you OCU6 at the KYO Convention.
It must have been trying, but we have so much at
stake and I do hope that with the passage of time
the UFO will prove to be the media to bring about
the peace we all hope and pray fer.
iith best wishes and kind regards,
sincerely yours,
