Sixth FBI Informant
Says Reds Dreamed
In fo45 Of Revolt
BY The Assoeiotsd Press

NEW YORK, May 10-Commu-
mist dreams in 1e45 that the time
soon would be ripe to overthrow
the United States Government
were described to a Federal court
jury yesterday by an FBI under
cover agent.
The witness was William Cum
mings, 81, an automobile worker
in Toledo, who served six years
in the Communist movement
while reporting to the FBI.
Mr.. Cummings. new surprise
witness at the Communist con-
spiracy trial. testified that Red
leaders in Ohio predicted revolu-
| ton was drawing nearer than ex-
pected. The time was four years
ago, when the Communist Party
dropped its wartime policy of
peaceful cooperation with Amer
ican capitalism and returned to
its military revolutionary tactics.
Racial Lists Kept.
The witness. who Is colored and
was a party official In Ohio, said
the Communists keep racial lists
of members.
He produced a copy of his 1945
party registration card bearing
blank spaces for an answer to the
question: Negro-white?
Mr.. Cummings said he did not
answer the question on the card,
but when it was returned to him
~ bore a check after the blank
labeled Negro"
Mr.. Cummings was the 18th
Government witness - and the
sixth Communist member to re-
veal his identity as an FBI agent
at the trial of II top Communist
leaders charged with conspiracy
to advocate forcible overthrow of
the Government.
Taking the stand as the trial
entered its 18th week, Mr.. Cum
mings told of membership meet
ing in Toledo in 1945 at the time
that Ohio Communists ratified the
Politburo's new party line. The
Government says the new tactics
"a switch from cooperation to
militancy-were dictated by Mos
cow.
Describes Part of Meeting.
The witness described part OF
the meeting this way:
Mrs. .Adeline Kohl, State Sec
retary. urged us to accept the de-
cision of the National Board (the
Politburo). She was INTERRUPTED
by Paul Prosser, who said we had
estimated roughly the revolution
In America was 10 years off but
he felt it was much closer, due to
world conditions.
Mrs. Kohl said she agreed II
was much closer because of the
leadership the Communists had
given to the working class to
bring about a totalitarian revolu-
ton"
Gus Hall, one of the II de-
fendants and Ohio State chair
man Of the Communist Party.
moved from his regular court
room seat to a chair almost di-
rectly in front of Mr.. Cummings
as he began to testify.
Mr.. Cummings told of Joining
the Communist Party In February,
1943. after first speaking with FBI
agents. He said he had kept the
FBI informed of party activities
since then, had held several party
offices and was an active party
member at the time he stepped
to the witness stand.
Mr.. Cummings said the party
stopped issuing membership cards
after the present prosecution
began, SO he had no 1949 card.

Washington (LPA) - The oil
industry won, and the public
lost, when the Senate, SO to Is,
rejected the nomination of Le-
land Olds for a third five-year
term on the Federal Power Com
mission. Foes charged he was
too radical, but his real sin,
his supporters pointed out, was
that he had saved consumers of
electricity and gas millions OF
dollars.
