WASHINGTON, Dee. 27.-The pro-
gram declared for BY the Communists
In their New York conference was a
surprise not only to those wha haTe
been inclined to believe Communism
an innocent passlme, but also to tiruse
who have failed 10 observe what has
been taking place.
The New York conference made clear
to all observers the direct line between
Moscow and subversive propaganda in
the United States. What should nov
be made clear Is the relation between
various groups in the United States,
not all using the Communist label, but
all interlocklng and preaching TIE same
thing and all operating under instrue-
tion from TIE headquarters in Moscow.
where the greatest existing autoeraey
has It's life and being.
10000 Enrolled Communists
There are only $4,000 enrolled Com
munists. More than 100000 Amer
leans are not Communists. They can
be fooled and overcome only II they
neglect TO think and neglect TO live
their belief in democracy. The great
est menace Of the New York Commu-
mist program is not in that program
hut In the indifference Of Americans.
Tho American Federation OF Labor
has from the first understood and de
nouneed the Russian Communist idea
Labor has not been fooled.
The Communists seek 10 destroy the
American Federation Of Labor as an
essential, necessary precedent 70 de-
struetion Of our Republic, and the ON
cial Communist declarations have re-
peatedly made this clear
Americans can best stop the spread
Of Communist propaganda by reeognir'
ing the effectiveness, the democracy
and the scientific foundation Of oui
trade unions, which stand as the first
line Of defense against Communist die
tatoTship. This / have said repeatedly
Labor VIII Continue War
The Communists are not attacking
Congress, legislatures, corporations OF
employers they are attacking trade
unions II they can destroy trade
unions they can do what they like with
the rest OF society, as they have don'
In Russia, where there are no more
bona hde trade unions.
The Communist propaganda nov
stands more in the open than formerly
but their secrets have long been oper
books 10 labor. Labor will continue itl
/ fight for the preservation and the ex
tension Of democracy, because il under
stands democracy and needs democracy
Those who now hght trade unloni
hght the battle for communism, for the
dictatorship Of Lenineism, which meant
absolutlsm, under which all, including
workers, must be seTvile subjects OF Z
monarch, no matter what his title.
The more than 100000 900 Amerieani
who are not Communists can preServ'
American institutions, but they had
better look to their facts, for Il Is vel
that none be deceived by the insidiouI
and treaeherous propaganda which Il
spread SO generously By so many whC
are not Communists At all, including
riany Of our lndolent newspapers.
