British Communists Call
For Reversal Of Policy

The British Communist Party’s demand for a reversal
of the Labor government’s Tory policy in foreign affairs
served to focus world attention this week on the attempted
formation of an exclusive Anglo-American alliance backed
by Canada and other lesser power, aimed at the virtual iso-
lation of the Soviet Union in world affairs and based on
possession of the atomic bomb.

The British Communists’ cri-
cism of the Labor Party, and
their demand for removal of
Ernest Bevin as British foreign
secretary, was not only timely
but necessary. Coming at a time
when the preparatory commis-
sion of the United Nations Or-
ganization had just opened its
sessions in London, and at the
height of an anti-Soviet cam-
paign aimed at breaking up the
Anglo-Soviet U.S. alliance, the

Facts Demonstrate ‘Interference’
Policy Followea By

NEW YORK — Is it true
that the United States is
following a “hands-off” policy
in- the present effort of the victor
imperialist powers to restore the
prewar colonial structure?

This is the claim of the apolo-
gists for the present policy of
the Administration. Here are
some facis:

CHINA

Over 50,000 U.S. Marines are
now stationed at strategic spots
in North China and patrolling
sections of railroad which Chiang
Kai-shek needs to transport his
troops into Manchuria. Some
American casualties have al-
ready resulted.

All lend-lease equipment in
China is heing turned over to the
Chungking government. Ameri-
ean planes, already used _ to

transfer Amevican-trained and
equipped troops to fight the
Communist armies, are being

turned over to Chiang, including
at least 3,000 planes.

The American Navy is being
used to transport Central Gov-
ernment troops into the Northern
liberated areas.

A United States military mis-
sion, numbering at least 2,000
men, is being assigned to the Cen-
tral Government to train and
supervise its armed forces.

American planes, piloted’ by
Americans, have been employed
on scouting duties for Chiangs’
“bandit suppression” campaign,
including one reported strafing
of a village held by the Highth
Route Army.

SOUTHEAST ASIA

The State Department refuses
to recognize the independent re-
publics proclaimed in Indonesia
and Indo-China. The policy of
recognizing the sovereignty of
Holland and France over their
former colonies, 28 announced by
Assistant Secretary Vincent 4
few weeks ago, was the go-ahead

signal for suppression of the in-
dependence movements.
American lend-lease arms and
shipping are employed by. the
British, Dutch and French.
' During recent weeks at least
five American ships, manned by
American erews, left Marseilles,
transporting 7,000 French col-
onial troops to Indo-China.

PHILLIPPINES

American military and politi-
eal authorities are supporting
pro-fascist forces led by Manuel
Roxas, President of the Philip-
pine Senate. Fresident Sergio
Osmena is now in the United
States, and soon after his arrival
President Truman expressed of-
ficial concern over the “agrarian
movement of unrest” in the Phil-
ippines and hinted at the danger
of an armed uprising.

He announced that the Ameri-
can cnission, headed by U.S. Com-

| missioner McNutt, would have as

U.S. A.

its chief aim to help establish
“stability” in the Philippines.

MIDDLE EAST

A United States military mis-
sicn is now training the army of
Saudi Arabia, where U.S. oil in-
terests have an investment of
$100,000,000. American troops
are also completing a new air-
field near the oil wells.

Arnerican imperialist aims in
Palestine were made clear by
Sen. Brewster, Republican, of
Maine, when he said that ‘the
United States needs an indepen-
dent Jewish Palestine as a “‘peri-
ecope” for American foreign
policy in the Middle Eas, and
as “a place to serve America.”

Official American policy on
the Palestine issue increasingly
vesembles the traditional British
policy of pledging support to
both Arabs and Jews, while seel:-
ing to arouse and exploit nation-
alist differences.

Empire Communist Meet
Welcomed By Tim Buck

Toronto, Ont.—Tim Buck this
week greeted the proposal for a
Conference of Communist parties
of the British empire. Originally
made by the Communist Party of
South Africa, the proposal was
endorsed by the British Com-
munist Party. Welcoming the
proposal, P. C. Joshi, secretary
of the Communist Party of In-
dia, said: “I am confident that
such a conference will help to-
wards united action of the work-
ers of all countries in the present
Empire with the objective of at-
tainment of independence of the
subject countries and thus to-
wards the establishment of lasti
ing friendship among these

peoples.’ He suggested that the
conference be held in Bombay
“since India is the biggest sub-
ject country in the world and the
foeal. point of the movement for
colonial liberation.’

In a wire to Joshi, the Can-
adian LPP leader said he agreed
that the conference should .be
held “in India if possible.”

“The democratic people of the
Commonwealth countries must
act to help India achieve national
liberation,” Tim Buck wired,
“and also support Indonesia and
other colonial peoples. If India
is impossible, the conference
should be held in London at an

early date.’

Communists’ warning placed the
issue before the British Labor
Party, and the world working
class, in a way that could not
be ignored.

For Ernest Bevin has not only
taken over, lock, stock and bar-
rel, the foreign policies: of his
Tory predecessors, but has
shamefully tied [3ritain to the
tail of the American imperialist
kite, transferring in effect the
authority of No. 10 Downing
Street to the war-makers: of
Wall Street. And Prime Minister
Mackenzie King, ~by placing
Canada in the role of “go be-
tween” for Britain and the Unit-
ed Stated, has committed this
country to a conspiracy aimed
at breaking the Big Three alli-
ance and possibly splitting the
United Nations Organization be-
fore it is fully established.

For that is exactly the mean-
ing of the three-power pact re-
cently. signed between President
Truman and Prime Ministers
Attlee and King at Washington.

BUCK ISSUES WARNING

National LPP leader Tim Buck
became the first leading Cana-
dian to warn of the ful meaning
of the Washington pact when he
declared that “by this pact,
United States, Britain and Can-
ada have used their possession
of the atomic bomb as a sort of
diplomatic ultimatum to . Soviet
Russia. Unless the USSR $ac-
cepts all the conditions that they
have announced, they will con-
sider themselves free to act as
they choose both in regard to
secrecy of manufacture and pos-
sible use of the atom bomb.’

Tim Buck went on to point
out that the far reaching char-
acter of the Truman-Attlee-King
ultimatum is best understood
when it is borne in mind that
their hurried five-day conference
was held only a week before the
executive committee of the Unit-
ed Nations Organization was
scheduled to meet in London.

“The carefully calculated
manner in which. it was done,”
Buck said, “makes ft certain
that the pact will tend to di-
vide the fifty-one governments
participating in the preparatory
commission of the United Na-
tions Organization.”

BLACKMAIL ROLB

Prime Minister King, as if to
emphasize the new  Dbilackmail
Tole of United States, Britain
and Canada in world affairs, told
the Ottawa House of Commons
that Britain and United States
now stood alone as the sole
guarantors of world peace. The
Soviet Union, which played the
decisive role in saving the world
from fascism, and whose power is
