This shows a constantly expanding use of the postal services.

He said the revenues derived from postage on first-class matter have been sufficient to pay the cost of handling, and the income from the postal-savings systems has been sufficient to pay for maintenance.

"politburo" and was constantly kept informed by it. He identified the "politburo" as the heart of the communist movement in this country and said it now is known as the "National Board of the Communist Party." The "politburo," he said, received its instructions from a representative of the Communist Internationale who in turn got his orders from Moscow. "The communist party is set up not on a democratic but a conspiratorial basis," he said, adding that -it dealt in espionage as well as conspiracy. He said a liaison representative from the "politburo" kept in touch with him "almost hourly." As managing editor of the Daily Worker, he explained, he received instructions what to do. Part of his job, Budenz said, was virtually to memorize a list of some 1,000 names of persons identified with the party.

List Not In Writing This list, he said, was not put down in writing for fear it might be disclosed. "I was required to keep it fresh in my mind," Budenz said. The names, Budenz continued, included those of persons who were being "infiltrated" into various organizations. He said he was not advised of the "small fry," but only of the "large-sized names." He mentioned in this connection that infiltration was directed at the wartime Office of Strategic Services. Budenz said the 7 Institute of Pacific relations was "successfully infiltrated," and at one time the communists largely influenced and even controlled the organization.

The institute is a private organization. It was set up back in the 1920s with the declared purpose of increasing knowledge about the Pacific area and increasing friendship among the peoples of the lands touching that ocean. Many prominent Americans have vide relief ta terminal station operations where urgently needed. In July, 1936, the U. S.

comptroller of the currency ordered the Fidelity Building and Loan association of Washington to Pennsylvania system west of Harrisburg, the entire Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe system; the Southern Railway, and the New York Central west of Buffalo and three of its divisions, the Michigan Central west of the Detroit river, the Big Four and the Ohio Central Lines. Robertson said the 60 brotherhood officials who have been meeting in Chicago for the last week discussing possible strike action, selected the four systems as "those which appeared most advantageous to Railroad spokesmen said the four to be struck are extensive users of diesels. Has No Comment In Washington, O'Neill would not comment whether an emergency would be created by the proposed walkout and thus whether government seizure would be justified. But it appeared the union's strategy was intended to avert seizure because strikes in 1946 and 1948 had been halted by federal seizure or threatened seizure. The union said picket lines would be set up and all movement of the railways, whether by diesel or steam, will be struck.

Robertson said the walkout might spread later to other lines. Alvanley Johnston, president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, has said his union of some 90,000 members is not threatening immediate strike action. The engineers also had demanded an extra man on the multiple unit diesels. But a presidential board rejected the union's proposal, holding the extra man was unnecessary. The firemen and enginemen also had demanded that a fireman be assigned to a number of small diesels now operated principally in yard service by only an engineer.

Loomis said last night that the union's claim that a second fireman is needed on grounds of safety is "sheer He added: "Safety has been dragged into this dispute only to give; a cloak of respectability to vicious feath-erbedding demands."
