Red Party in Germany
Shifting Toward Unity
Only in Eastern Reich
BERLIN, May 17 (CDN). — A
dramatic, but so far carefully con
cealed switch, seems to be occurring
in the policy of the Soviet-spon
sored Socialist Unity Party (SED)
in the Soviet-occupied zone of Ger
many.
Since Its formation, shortly after
the end of the war, by a coalition
of Communists and leftwing social
ist*, the party’s principal slogan and
the basis for its appeal has been
“unity” of Germany.
Now that seems to have gone by
the boards in favor of “unity” of
Eastern Germany alone, with de
velopment, at the same time, of a
“people'* front,” like that in other
Eastern European countries, in
place of the present party system.
Such switches In policy always
leave a trail of wrecked careers
and bewildered officials. According
to reports, there is currently under
way a quiet purge of SED leaders in
the Soviet zone who have plunked
hardest for “unity.”
In their places are coming men
whose description always is “pro
gressive.” They need not neces
sarily be open Communists. One
thing Is absolutely essential, how
ever—agreement with the present
Russian program, or s much as any
one can discover of it.
A long record of Communist
Party regularity seems to be no
guarantee for office holders or dis
trict leaders. If they find it difficult
to follow such dazzling alterations,
they are out.
Another switch Is occurring with
in the Soviet military administra
tion Itself. New political advisers
have appeared, not only for top1 <
men but even for those on the ]
level of the Berlin commander, Gen. j ■
Kotikov, who cannot as much as
adjourn a meeting now without1
getting an okay first from a man
identified only as •'Maximov.” ]
Maximov was much in evidence
at yesterday’s Kommandatura meet- j
ing, the only four-power agency |
that makes even a pretense of con
tinued operation. In almost 12
hours of talking, almost nothing
was accomplished. Everyone lost
his temper, however, and the;
French member, Gen. Gonval,
missed a dinner appointment when

The United States “is moving into

of the Norris-La Guardia Act,” Sen

told more than 100 members of the
American Veterans’ Committee Sat

The Senator was the principal
speaker at a dinner meeting, spon
sored by the press-radio wing of the

the new committee clubhouse at 1751

When the bird you find at hand

And those extra guests arrive from who-knows-where.
You don’t run away and hide it.
You count noses and divide it
So that everybody gets an equal share.

Too AT, many people are still waiting for

service for more people, sooner.
If you’re on a party line, you can help
yourself to better telephone service by
following these few suggestions:
1. Try to make your calls reasonably brief.
2. Whenever possible, allow an interval between
calls so that others can use the Una.
3. Try to otuwer the telephone as promptly m
you can.
4. Please don't interrupt when the line is in use,
except in case of emergency.
5. Ask the children to follow these good.
neighbor suggestions, too.
Party-line service is good service whea
everyone co-operates.

Ford’s famous English-built economy cars
... now available for prompt delivery
Now, for the first time, selected Ford Dealers bring you
the Anglia and the Prefect—in England, the most widely
sold cars in their price class.
It’s easy to see why they’re so much in demand. While
their traditionally shorter English wheel base in no way
detracts from their riding comfort (plenty of leg and head
room) it does make them delightfully easy to handle in
traffic or to park, and it results in amazing gasoline and
oil economy.
The Anglia and the Prefect are made with typical
English craftsmanship and the traditional Ford dependa
bility. They are built to last. They are designed especially
for American requirements, with left-hand drive, standard
gear shift, chrome trim and other features.
See these distinctive cars today and you'll 6ee why dur
ing this postwar period, the Anglia and the Prefect are
the largest selling low-priced cars in England.
