Each mind ha.s its own Confuse And Conquer The nuisance value of the small Communist cell in organized labor was demonstrated again at the protest rally of CIO officials in Washington against, labor bills now before Congress.

The meeting also highlighted the confunion which the issue of has created in high CIO circles. After CIO President Murray and other officers blasted the proposed legislation and prophesied the dawn of American fascism, Irving Potash arose. Mr'. Potash vice president of the United Fur and Leather Workers' Union. "I speak to you as a Communist," he 1 said.

He didn't get much further than to newspaper accounts of the meeting. Emil Rieve, the Textile Workers' Union president, protested. So did A. R. Hardesty, a Texas representative of the UAW.

But Richard Leonard, UAW vice president, objected to Mr. Hardesty's statement that "We should say that we will not align ourselves with the Communist Party in any shape or form. We should say we do not seek such support." Why did iSr. Potash bring up his Communist affiliation? Communism is not an issue in the legislation under discussion. There seemed to be no disagreement among the 250 CIO leaders an to their stand against that legislation.

We don't know what, was in Mr. Potash's mind. But the pattern of communistic technique is so familiar by now that we feel safe in making this guess: Potash injected communism into the discussion because it is Community Party policy to promote dissension while preaching unity. Dissension can be promoted best at the top, where it counts. It is sure to spread to the rank and file, and witli it goes confusion.

By trying to dictate CIO policy and by aligning themselves with it, the Communists can muddle the minds of union members. If the Communists support. CIO objectives, then can communism be so bad? If the government were to outlaw the Communists, wouldn't it also outlaw us, who agree with them on matters of union labor policy? These are questions which the comrades are probably delighted to plant in as many minds as possible. Doubt and confusion prepare the ground where the seeds of subversion are sown. Then the Communists, through organization, discipline, zeal and an ability to shout louder than their opponents, have a chance of taking over.

It should be added that pro-Communist Michael Quill, head of the Transport Workers' Union, had a few confusing wordt; to say at the CIO meeting. He said it was "no accident that the American Veterans' Committee are putting out Henry Wallace's speech by the thousands," that "the Buffalo teachers Went on strike" or that "the telephone workers have the longest picket lines ever formed." Veterans, attacks on American foreign policy, strikes--are they al! part of the same picture? Are they forerunners of the revolution? Or did Mr. Quill simply try lo make them appear so for confusion's sake? Mr. Murray told the stormy meeting that "divided opinions are one reason for l.hc ClO's vitality." Check. But when divided opinions involve divided allegiance between two countries and two systems of government, a grave clement of danger arises to trouble the CIO's future.
