Cominform Breaks With Tito,
Blasts Shift From Morxist Line
In Red Bloc Nations First Split
YugosIov Leaders

Bureau Repudioted
ey the kssoeioted Press

PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia, June
28.-The Communist Cominform
charged today Yugoslav Com
munists had departed from the
Marx-Lenin line and that their
leaders, including Premier Mar
shal Tito, pursued a hateful pol
icy toward Soviet Russia.
The Cominform called for either
a true return to Marxist policy or
a change Of Communist leaders in
Yugoslavia.
This marked the first break In
the ranks of the nine Eastern ma
tions which formed the Cominform
the international Communist in
formation bureau"-at a meeting in
Poland last fall Yugoslavs were
among the founders and Cominform
headquarters were established In
Tito's capital, Belgrade.
Refuse to Join in Session.
An official statement today said
Yugoslav representatives of the
Communist Party refused to take
part in session of the Comlnform
held "the latter part of June in
Romania
The statement of the Communist
Information Bureau was published
in Rudeo Pravo, official newspaper
of the Communist Party of Czecho-
Slovakia.
The bureau adopted unanimously
a statement that Yugoslav Com
munists had departed from the
Marx-Lenin line.
Belgrade, the capital OF Tltos
Yugoslav government, was made the
seat of the Cominform by the Com
munist leaders of Eastern Europe at
the time of the formatio of the
Cominform last year. Cominform
bulletins were issued in Belgrade.
Rumored for 10 Days.
Rumors of the June meeting have
floated around the world for the last
10 days. Important Communists
professed ignorance of it.
The first paragraph of the reso-
luton, or statement, said The
Cominform asserts.that the leader
ship of the Yugoslav Communist
Party has been lately undertaking
entirely wrong policy on the prin-
cipal questions of foreign and in
ternal politics which means re-
treat from Marxism-Leninism.
"In connection with that, the
Corninform accepts the process OF
the central committee of the all
Communist union of Bolsheviks,
which assumed the initiative by un-
yelling the wrong policy of the CEN
tral committee of the Communist
Party of Yugoslayia and especially
the wrong policy of comrades Tito,
Kardelj. Djilas and Rankovic.'
Edward Kardelj is vice pre-
mier of Yugoslavia, Milovan
Diilas is minister for Montenegro,
one of the Yugoslav states. and
1t. Gen. Alexander Rankovic is
minister of the interior.
Representatives Listed.
The statement listed the rep
reSentatlveS OF only elgnt OF Iile
Cominform countries.
Delegates included Palmiro Tog-
liatti and Petro Secchia of Italy
and Jasques Duclos and E. Fajon OF
France.
Hungary sent three delegates,
Deputy Premier Matyas Rakosi, M.
Farkas and Erne Gero.
The Polish delegates were listed
as J. Berman and A. Zavadski.
1t was apparent that in some
cases the actual founders of the
Cominform were not present at
the first important meeting since
the founding.

olution charged Yugoslavia with a
hateful policy toward Russia and

Unloading of three ships was
started today by 1,100 soldiers
sailors and airmen distributed

perishable food cargoes in danger OF

of dollars from the people of
Montana.
Thousands of dollars of eastern
money have been accepted by my
opponent from the Republican Sem
atorial Committee and are being used
in blatant attempt to buy SEN
atorship from the people of Mon
tana. Public records now show that
those thousands were put up by mem
bers of the MORGAN banking house,
by the MELONS of Pittsburgh, by
SOLOMON GUGGENHEIM an
HAROLD VANDERBILT of New
York, and by those eastern mer-
chants of death, the monopolistic
munitions makers of Delaware"
Senator Murray charged.

paid for his campaign the people of

terests which are trying to buy Mon
tana's senate seat for the Republican
party" Senator Murray said.
Continuing his vigorous indictment
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1948-10-29

An estimated 225,000 Montana
voters will go to the polls next Tues
day to decide the outcome of what
has been probably the most expensive
campaign in Montana history.
Although this is a presidential
year, top interest seems definitely
conferred on the red hot battles for
the u. S. Senate and the governor
ship.
Senator Jim Murray, Loyalty sup
ported by an almost solid labor vote,
large segment of the farm popu
lation, and many small business and
professional people, has been carry
ing on a dignified, aggressive cam
paign, based on his record of IA
years service in Washington. His
COP opponent, Tom J. Davis, we'll
known Butte attorney has also been
carrying on an aggressive campaign
built around National Republican
policy of Unity, Teamwork and Lowell
Davis proponents, for the most part,
have handled the trough stuff" for
the COP nominee. Prohibition can
didate C. S. Hanna has been trying
to pin candidate Davis to a discus
sion on the liquor question, with no
success whatever.
The race for the governorship has
seen little Glove" extended by either
contestant. John Bonner has kept
Governor Ford on the defensive, ex-
planning weak spots in his admins
tration since inception of the fall
campaign And, at the same time,
Leverne Hamilton, Socialist candi-
date, has been trying vainly to tie
both old party candidates down to a
genuine discussion of fundamental |
issues.
Both congressional races, until the
past couple of weeks have been
pretty tame affairs.
Second district Democratic nomi-
nee, Willard Fraser has time again
stated his opposition to Taft-Hartley
act, the increasing INFLAMMATION of
our government, COP underwriting
of western reclamation and REA;
and has been doing a fine job of eX
posing how Cong. Wesley D'Ewart
time and again voted against the
interests of Montana people and for
the power trust and big business gen
orally.
But the fireworks didn't get a
good start in the first district, until
just few days ago when Judge
COP nominee, severely
took Congressman Mike Mansfield
to task for the latter's opposition to
% continuance of the un-American
Thomas committee; ~ the vicious
federal employee loyalty bill (Which
was pigeon-holed in the COP SEN
ate); 90 Mansfield's voting against
the appropriation to carry out the
Truman federal loyalty directive.
These charges aroused Mansfield
and in a radio exchange, Judge
Angstman came off poor second.
also attempted to put his
opponent on the spot on Taft-Hart-
ey, but the Judge nimbly ducked
hat one.
Other state campaigns have been
pretty mild
dul OdiinoL, OeAioSldc, oho yin
Burke, Republican, have been carry
ng on spirited but not too rough
light for the lieutenant governor
hip.
So far as I know, neither Judge
Stanley Felt, Republican or Arnold
Olsen (Democrat) have said an I'M
ind word in their quest for the at
orney generalship.
In the auditor race, joke-loving
ohnny Holmes, Democrat and E. j.
40, Republican, have ruffled a few
f each others feathers, but, there's
othing serious about the whole mat
er.

of the Davis candidacy, Senator Muir
ray made the following statements:
O "The Eastern banks that are try
ing to kill the farm price support
program are not sending money
to my opponent because they like
the sound of his voice."
O "The directors of Eastern
railroads tried to raise Montana
freight rates twice in recent
months. We stopped them. Is
this why they now back with funds
Republican candidate who has
served as lawyer for the rail-
roads ?"
D "The great monopolists of the
East have chosen to support in
Montana a man who has served as
lawyer for Eastern-owned chain
stores. VIII they expect him to
fight for our farm co-operatives
and the independent businessmen
they want to drive out of bust
ness?"
D "You and and all the people of
Montana own an interest in the
lands oil now belonging to the
people of the United States. Our
share can pay for all Montana's
schools and cut our local taxes.
But the men who want that oil
turned over to private interests in
California and in Texas are pour
ing money into Montana in an at
tempt to elect my opponent. You
don't have to think twice to guess
why"
Perhaps the most shocking thing
of all, however, is to find a Mon
tana candidate taking money from
the duPonts of Delaware. Mon
tana and the nation need defense
industries located out here. 1t
would mean new population, mar
kets close to home for our farm
ers, new customers for our bust
nessmen, new wealth and lower
taxes for all Montana. But the
Republican candidate for Mon
tana's senate seat is running on
money advanced by the most de-
termined opponents of defense in
dustry for Montana in all the
United States-on money invested
in his campaign by the munitions
