Jay Lovestone Tells
Dies Committee Of
Break With Stain
Ousted Communist Chief
No Longer Hopes to
Reunite Porty
BULLETIN.

Jay Lovestone, for many years
a directing head Of the Com
munist party in the United
States. told the Dies Committee
today that agents of the OGPU,
Russian secret police, attempted
to get him last year. He said
the agents ransacked his home in
July, 1898, and stole his private
documents, but that he had been
warned of an attempt on his life
and had remained away from
home.
Jay Lovestone, former general sec
retary of the Communist party of
the United States, told the House
Committee on Un-American Activi-
ties today the first job of the Ameri"
can working class is to throw over
board the type of political organiza-
ton represented by the party.
The blond, bespectacled witness
testified he was ousted as gen.
eral secretary b. Josef Stain in
1929 because of a violent conflict
with Moscow over how the various
units of the party should be led.
Prior to that time, he said, he had
received and been subjected to al
the honors of the party save one
liquidation by firing squad"
Recounting many of his expert
ences, his trips to Russia and con-
ferences with Stain, Mr.. Lovestone
asserted he had insisted on a princi-
pie of party democracy" but that
Stain and his puppets, while they
did not reject it on paper, vitiated
every concept" of such a principle.
Denounced by Stain.
Ten years ago, the witness said,
Stain thought Communism was
'just around the corner" in the
United States, but he disagreed with
him and took the position that
capitalism was "far from finished" !"
For this, he declared, he and others
who shared that view were de-
nounced by the Soviet dictator.
Mr.. LoveStOne said it took him
and other expelled party members
seven years to get over the idea of
reunification of the party in this
country. but they abandoned it final
ly in 1896. At present, he said. he
is secretary of the Independent
Labor League of America at $35 a
week when we can get it,
Asked by J. B. Matthews, commit
tee investigator, why he had not ap-
peared voluntarily to testify as had
Earl Browder and other party Off
cials, Mr.. Lovestone said it was part
ly because he did not agree with a
good deal" of the committees pro-
cedure, but largely because he did
not want to be found in any neigh
borhood where "even the dust of the
Stalinist machine would fall or me. :"
Although Mr.. Lovestone was said
to be the last scheduled witness,
