their conservatism. Literature OBJ
tanned by federal agents made 1t APP
parent that the communist leaders
were concentrating on plans to obtain
control of well founded labor groups
Through this method they were to eN-
ert their power politically and to put
forward candidates which would be
regarded by government officials as
nothing more than destructive ele-
ments within the present government
The communist labor group was
said to, have directed its propaganda
more generally among the foreign ele-
ment of citizenry. From several
sources, federal agents cleaned .infor-
nation that the communist labor par
~ was appealing to the foreign work
ers with the argument that the pres
ent government was unfriendly 10
them and that their rights would
never be respected by the appointed
authorities The insertion of the word
labor" in the name of this party was
regarded by officials as only a subter-
fuge, the leaders realizing that it
would lend strength to their argu-
ment among foreigners.
Working Agreement of Leaders.
Assistant Attorney General Garvan
expressed the opinion that the leaders
of the two parties had n working
agreement and planned eventually to
bring all the radicals under one com
munist party. and thereby amass
enough strength to upset the constl-
tuted government
Officials are working on the theory
that a higher power is directing the
work of both organizations and That
the leaders who are behind this di-
recting hand only recently have come
from Russia This belief, they said,
was supported by evidence gathered
by representatives of this and allied
governments In the heart of soviet
Russia. 1t Is known that agents of the
allied nations have been working for
nearly two years among the followers
of Isenine and Trot2ky, and their eff
forts have resulted in connecting links
in the chain of soviet propaganda In
This country and the soviet leaders in
Russia.

The action of the retail shoe dealers

the beginning of a general narrowing
of profit margins in other wearing
apparel
