U.S. Commies Plan Revolution Of Jobless
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — American Communists hope to mold the nation's jobless workers into a revolutionary "battering ram" to be used against the U.S. government, a Senate staff study warned today.
THE 32-PAGE staff document said a special 100,000-copy issue of the Weekly Worker dated March 5. 1961, was a tip-off to Communist plans. Some 5.7 million Americans were unemployed that month.
The special issue featured an article about the 1930 "struggles" of the Reds and their allies to whip up revolutionary fever among the distressed during the great depression. The American Communist Party hopes to repeat that pattern now, the study said.
The Senate Internal Security subcommittee said the Communists are not interested in relieving unemployment distress but want to exploit the jobless for revolutionary agitation.
IN THEIR activity among the jobless, the Communists pay particular attention to veterans whose military experience they hope to enlist against the government, the document stated.
Moreover, the report said, the Communists whip up "fantastic" legislative demands which on the surface appear designed to relieve unemployment problems but which are actually aimed at weakening the government and its security arms.
"There is evidence that Communist operatives among the unemployed have received professional training in techniques of violence and rioting in schools in Moscow and in the United States," the subcommittee staff reported.
THE REPORT noted that the present secretary general of the Communist Party, Gus Hall, was convicted of rioting during a 1934 unemployment demonstration in Minneapolis.
It is highly probable that the Reds hope to bring internal pressure on the government at the same time that Moscow experts pressure in foreign affairs, the study said.
