In recent months the Communists
have been suffering from internal
rows. The failure to make q serious
impression on American workers gen.
orally has caused differences over
modes Of procedure. Two factions
have sprung up. and all attempts from
Moscow to harmonize them have
failed. One wing would give UP the
