Today's Wallace is probably a
complex of many things, personal
and political: Mrs. Wallace's tears
when he was rejected at Chicago for
Mr.. Truman, his expulsion from

postwar policies that followed, the
unrefnitting onslaughts on his in

This Changing World
Ruhr Strikes Termed First Objective
Of Protocol M to Wreck Marshall Plan

Workers Union is the center Of
gravity from the Red organizational
point of view, and the task set for
the Western German Communists
Is to obtain control Of all union
treasures.
Propaganda Note Sounded.
Propaganda, dealt with in part
three, gees hand-in-hand with the
program Of strikes and disorders.
The themes of this propaganda are
that % the Marshall Plan is a plan
of enslavement by the monopoly
capitalists Of the United States; (2)
that strikes in all monopoly cap
italist countries are signs Of increas-
ing decay Of capitalist society, and
CD Eastern European economy is
steadily developing under the pro-
lection of the Soviet Union.
The timetable set forth in part
four was the achievement by the
end of December Of a common
Social Democrat and Communist
basis to bring about a plebiscite;
until the end Of February, the or
ganization of strike cadres; and
after the first of March. the organ
ization of general strikes.
Battle Opens Final Struggle.
The overall purpose Of the plan
is stated in the preamble: 'The
coming winter will be the decisive
period in the history of the German
working class. " This battle is
not concerned with ministerial posts
but is for the starting positions for
the final struggle for the liberation
of the proletariat of the world"
Last week strikes began to occur
in the Ruhr, ostensibly motivated
simply by the desire for adequate
food. There is no doubt, in the light
of the present ration in the Anglo
American zone of Germany, that
food is drastically short, and the
prediction of German officials that
hunger riots will occur in the future
as food becomes even less plenti-
full is fully to be credited.
The extent, however, to which
these strikes represent the first
phases of action under the master
Communist plan embodied in
Protocol M is hardly open to ques-
ton, and-the fact that Communists
did not appear prominently in the
strikes simply complies with part
one of the protocol.
Greater trouble Is ahead not only
for the Ruhr region Of Germany,
but for all Western Europe whose
recovery depends to a great extent
on speeded production in Western
Germany's industrial center. Grow
ing hunger will become the ally Of
q firmly laid Communist plot to
throttle the Ruhr and thereby all
Western Europe.

capitalists, managing their land
with several hired laborers, even
though they themselves do personal
manual labor. This is the most
numerous element of the bourgeoisie
and the decided enemy Of the
revolutionary proletariat. J"
Chief attention must be given to
the struggle against this element.
The revolutionary proletariat must
prepare the necessary force for the
disarmament Of every single man
of this class /" and must deal
a relentless crushing blow to his
class. In the Russian proletarian
revolution this class has been
taught what it costs to make the
slightest attempt at resistance"
Five Million Paid Price.
It has, indeed, and the crushing
of its resistance cost 100000 dead
from starvation, in the only whole
sale famine to strike country in
habited by white men in 100 years.
But no matter: 'The Communist
International denounces those .
who oppose on the ground
that it might cause a falling of in
the production of foodstuffs. No
program .. or declarations . =.
have any value II the fact is not
testified in deeds that Communists
put, above all, the development of
revolution"
Thus, the Communist program
for agriculture, universal for all
countries, would appropriate en-
tirely all farmers living above sub
sistence or its margin, who are
eventually to be collectivized. Fur
ther proof that this is still the pro-
gram can be seen in Eastern Europe
where the step-by-step program is
under way with the same results as
in Russia-starvation. The relent-
less breaking Of the Peasant Parties
and the execution Of their leaders
are part Of this program.

race discrimination, child labor, etc.
and everywhere they pose as the
friends of all farmers except own
ers of "vast estates"
Since Henry Wallace has inter-
national Communist support and is
supposed to be friend OF farmers,
let us see what the Communist pro-
gram is for them.
Communism aims at the eventual
expropriation without compensa-
ton of all land, and the reduction
of all farmers TO the status OF prop
ertyless agricultural share croppers
for the dictatorship of the proletar-
lat. The program Is set forth in
detail in the international con-
crosses, especially the Second and
the Sixth.
Four Farm Glasses Listed.
The program recognizes four
classes of proprietors: owners Of
large landed estates (acreage not
fixed; in Poland all over ESQ acres; |;
successful farmers of smaller hold
ings; marginal farmers only one
point above subsistence; and those
who barely scratch living.
These are to be absorbed step by
step as follows:
"Conhscation of all large landed
estates and transference OF State
and municipal properties, forests,
minerals, rivers, etc." together with
"all property used in production
connected with such properties,
buildings, machinery, cattle, flour
mills, dairies, ETC., to the proletar-
ian dictatorship"
Compensation of any kind, or re-
tention, even, of household goods,
is strictly prohibited.
Bribes for Some Groups.
Parts of such properties are to be
initially bestowed upon marginal
and subsistence farmers ITO the de-
gree necessary to neutralize them
and win them over to the side Of
proletarian revolution"
The poorest, little farmers who
possess by right of ownership or
rental small portions Of land which
barely meet the needs of their fam
lilies without requiring hired labor"
it is calculated, will side with the
proletariat"-especially since they
are to be bribed.
The marginal farmers, small
landowners who possess portions OF
land which, though small, may yield
only scanty provision for the FAM
lily but the possibility of accu-
mulating a certain surplus which,
In the best years, could be trans
formed into capital and which some
times needs to employ labor -. must
In the beginning Of the proletarian
dictatorship, be neutralized. The
vacillation Of this group is un-
avoidable."
Eventually all these must become
wage workers on State farms, but
transition to collective agriculture
must be managed with circumspec-
ton, step by STEP"
Working Farmers Enemies"
But members of the farming class
which represents the backbone Of
all agriculture, the working farmers
with sufficient land to yield con-
siderable surplus over the family's
needs, with sufficient capital in
vestment to mean high and eff
cient production-the class to which
majority of American farmers
belong-are described as "the worst

this struggle would be not only the
countries benefting from the pro-
gram, but also the industrial Ruhr
of Germany, on whose production
a large part Of the success of the
Marshall Plan must depend.
The only thing new in Protocol
M" is the specific terms and fine
detail with which the plan has been
drafted. The authenticity of it has
been sufficiently established, de-
spite heated Soviet and other Com
munist denials, and its general tone
is so In agreement with known
Soviet objectives that it can be ac-
cepted as a statement of what the
Cominform hopes to do
Protocol Phases Mapped.
The protocol is divided into five
parts. dealing with the centers in
which the struggle is to occur, the
Communist organization for the
campaign, propaganda, timetable
and supervision.
Part one, specifying the Ruhr and
northwest German transport as the
points of attack, calls for simulta-
neous risings of the workers in
transport and production, with
party members refraining from any
direct participation under all cir
cumstances.
"It Is not essential" the plan says,
"to destroy food supplies, but merely
to hinder their timely arrival. The
timely coordination Of delays in
the arrival of food transport and
the organization Of wild strikes
leading to a loss in production is
an essential feature of the opera
ton"

doubts about Russia be admissible.
Vague hints that Mr.. Wallace
might retire from the race If the
Democrats got more liberal" are
also out Of fashion. Short Of un-
conditional surrender by the Demo-
Gratis, which Is inconceivable, Mr..
Wallace stays. Finally, any CO.
operation at the local level, a device
dear to beleaguered politicians, will
materialize only by chance in places
where the Wallace party has moth
ing to gain.
The watch word is 1852, and any
profit to reaction in the meantime
is purely coincidental.
Leaves Doubt Behind.
Mr.. Wallace has flung himself into
the Progressive Citizens Of America
preconvention conferences here
with an airy exuberance possible
only to one who has burned all his
bridges. He has clearly left behind
compromise, doubt and dissenting
acuuaintances. He said, for example,
that he had not read Mrs. Roose-
velt's comments on his candidacy.
Even If that were only a diplomatic
denial, his manner showed he did
not intend to be bothered by crlti-
cism from any source.
The candidate delivered his key
note speech Saturday-a glossy New
Deal with overtones Of the late
Huey Longs every man o king
almost gleefully. Mr.. Wallace was,
of course, reaching over the heads
of the labor leaders, who are vir-
tually all against him, to the rank
and file.
He counts on his record to prove
he means what he says, and he
went to some pains to demonstrate
that President Trumans new deal
ish State Of the Union message was
insincere. AS practical matter,
of course, neither could put over
his ideas unless Congress were con-
verted wholesale.
Mr.. Wallace did a skillful job
from a tactical standpoint and one
presaging a bitter campaign. The
Republicans have hesitated to at
tack Mr.. Truman as a person; 1t
perhaps could be cynically charged
that they ple4cl w Aook ...--- -
role of an ineffective New Dealer.
Anyway, no qualms assail the
former Truman Secretary Of Com
merce.
Mr.. Wallace doesn't bother much
with the Republicans. He seems
to assume that any one likely to
vote for him doesn't admire that
