Byrnes, Blum Assailed
In Cominform's Third
Bulletin in Belgrade
By tht Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, Dec. 19.
—More than two-thirds of the third
Cominform bulletin nov( off the
press is devoted to reports on the
activities of the Communist Parties
In Hungary, Bulgaria and Romania.
The bulletin, containing texts of
reports given at the nine-nation
Communist conference in Poland
last September which organized the
Cominform (Communist Informa
tion Bureau! in Belgrade, listed the
claimed strength of the parties,
noted their activities and explained
their foreign policy and a history of
their development.
The bulletin carried a strong at
tack against the French Socialist
leader, Leon Blum, and criticized
former Secretary of State Byrnes.
Byrnes Book Assailed.
The Communist report dealt spe
cifically with Mr. Byrnes’ recently
published book, "Speaking Frankly,"
and said he had used stenographic
notes instead of giving an "analysis
ind picture of his country’s foreign
policy.”
The bulletin also declared that
237,384 new members had been ac
pepted into the Communist Party
)f Czechoslovakia in 1947.
Its two main front-page articles
were general commentaries. One
was on "the struggle of the French
people for freedom and independ
;pce.” The other outlined the
jrowth of Communist movements in
Europe, particularly in France and
Italy. The latter article carried the
reading, "Forces of Democratic
Jamp Are Gaining Strength.”
Guerrillas Get Contributions.
The only actual news item ap
pearing in the bulletin was a report
;hat the chairman of the Romanian
rrade Union Committee had an
lounced that “the working people
>f Romania have resolved to con
iribute two hours’ in earnings in
mpport of the Greek people”
meaning the Communist-led Greek
fuerrillas).
It was announced that 15 tons of
lommodities, provisions and clotti
ng already had been sent to Greece
md another 60 tons was ready for
ihipment.

Views on Affidavits
Amplified by Denham
In Letter to Pressman
By the Associated Press
NEW YORK Dec. 19.—Employers
of workers whose unions have re
fused to sign non-Communist affi
davits yesterday received amplifica
tion of the views of Robert N. Den
ham, National Labor Relations
Board general counsel, on the work
ing of the Taft-Hartley Act.
Mr. Denham, in a letter to Lee
Pressman, CIO general counsel, de
clared that under the law, Reming
ton Rand, Inc., could enter into a
work contract with the CIO United
Electrical Workers, but said that if
the contract included "a union se
curity provision they will do so at
their peril.”
Commenting two weeks ago on
the action of NLRB regional boards
in dismissing a Remington Rand
petition for certification elections at
seven of its plants, Mr. Denham
was quoted by the Associated Press
as declaring that the company could
enter into a contract with the elec
trical workers only "at its own
peril.”
Officials of the union have not
signed non-Communist affidavits re
quired by the Taft-Hartley law.
In his letter to Mr. Pressman, the
NLRB official said his comment at
that time "was substantially to the
effect that the act does not prevent
Remington Rand from entering into
any contract they may desire to with
the electrical workers, but if they
Incorporate a union security provi;
sion, they will do so at their peril,
md, of course, the closed shop con
tract is specifically forbidden by
the law.”
Text of the letter was made pub
lic by the union.
The petition’s dismissal was con
strued at the time as advising the
company it need no longer recognize
the union af» bargaining agent. It
was followed by a company an
nouncement withdrawing recogni
tion of the union.
Denham Assailed.
In Buffalo last night, Albert J.
Fitzgerald, the union’s president,
declared at a CIO meeting:
"We know that General Counsel
Denham was not misquoted by the
newspapers. We know he made that
statement to the Associated Press.
We know where he was when he
made it. When the newspapers
went searching for him two weeks
ago. they found him properly where
he belonged—at a meeting in New
York City of the National Associa
tion of Manufacturers."
Mr. Fitzgerald said that only
unions desiring to use the services
of NLRB need comply fully with
all provisions of the Taft-Hartlev
Act and added:
"Any time any labor union desires
to go before the board, it only de
sires to have its throat cut.”
Disappearance of Youths
In Reich Probed by U. S.
Sy the Associated Press
BERLIN, Dec. 19.—Maj. Gen.
George P. Hays, deputy United
States military governor for Ger
many. said yesterday an investiga
tion was being made in the Ameri
can occupation zone of Catholic
bishops’ allegations that 2,000
youths have disappeared in Ger
many since the war. He so advised
Josef Cardinal Frings of the Fulda
bishops’ conference in a letter.
The Russians refused to discuss
the matter in the allied Control
Council's Co-ordinating Committee
Monday.

By Jap, Reported Broken Up
By the Associated Press
SINGAPORE. Dec. 19.—A high1
Indonesian official said today the
Indonesian Republican police force
had broken up the "Wild Tigers,” a
private army led by a Japanese;
which has been fighting both the
Indonesians and Dutch in Sumatra
for nearly two years.

pore after slipping through the
Dutch blockade around Republican
Sumatra, said 20 senior officers of
the army were captured in raids

Senator Flanders, Republican, of

by Senator Robertson of Wyoming.
There was no indication today on
Senator Flanders’ successor.
