... , to the Mexican DFS (Dirección Federal de Seguridad), about her interviews of Oswald in the Cuban Consulate. The successive changes mirror the shift in the Mexico City CIA Station's view of Oswald, from a 'phase-one' position (Oswald was part of a Cuban Communist conspiracy) to a more standard 'phase-two' position (Oswald was a lone nut). From other sources we learn that the DFS itself, as well as the CIA Station, pushed the 'conspiracy' story hard in their November 23 interview. Revisions to the ...

... from Bologna in 1953 claimed 95% of public opinion on the US was based on 'the American paradise' as seen in the movies. Even though the monetarist emphasis of the ERP led to considerable unemployment and an increase in poverty in the late 1940s, the Italian Communist Party was unable to translate considerable pressure for action from below into an anti-ERP campaign that could energise a large enough cross-section of the population. The ERP's slogan, 'You Too Can Be Like Us', with its perfect dramatisation in the form of a factory worker ...

The only important news so far has been the confirmation that ...

... Leeds in September 1919. My parents were Quaker-ILPers and it was natural for me to gravitate to the labour movement. In 1934 I left school and joined the South Leeds Labour Party. The Labour League of Youth of the pre-war period had been heavily infiltrated by the Communist Party, a leading light being Ted Willis- later Lord Willis. I saw much of the CP in action in Leeds and met many of their members. Harry Newton was born in 1922 and would only be 17 when the war broke out. He claimed ...

... the 'Cambridge Comintern' in a very broad way, as a label for the people who became Soviet agents. It seems unhelpful to me do do this and can, in fact, cause confusion and even help those wishing to lay false trails. The Comintern (Communist International) was set up in March 1919, as the supposed successor to the Socialist International that had collapsed with the outbreak of war in August 1914, and sought to unite all those parties still claiming adherence to genuine Marxist aims and the body of theory they ...

... fairly persuasively back in the early 1970s by David Rees.(6) Rees's view, rather like the late Lord Lionel Robbins (who called White 'a sentimental and highly indiscreet fellow traveller'), is that White kept up his links not because he was a Communist but because he was a New Dealer who believed in (i) union of anti-fascist forces and (ii) US-USSR friendship as the key to postwar world peace and prosperity- his real goals. I suppose he might have been conspiratorial enough to have gone beyond ...

... spoke of Britain as a 'Third Force': 'It is for us, as Europeans and as a Social Democratic government, not the Americans, to give a lead in the spiritual, moral and political sphere to all democratic elements in Western Europe which are anti- communist and, at the same time, genuinely progressive and reformist, believing in freedom, planning and social justice-- what one might call the 'Third Force'.'

In the second line of the introduction the author (or authors) states: 'Its creation was prompted by the desire of Ministers in Mr Atlee's Labour government to devise means to combat Communist propaganda'. [So there is the line of this study: it was the politicians who ordered it.] But ten lines later we find this. 'Within the Foreign Office...IRD evolved from plans drawn up in 1946. It took some ...

... views of those agencies as a whole. (15) On the Eastern side, one can cite a number of official Bulgarian and Soviet publications, (16) as well as those produced by pro-Soviet Western communists, whether or nor they are actually members of official communist parties or front groups. (17) To say that all of these works seem designed mainly to exploit propaganda themes is not to say that all of the information contained in them is false, since propaganda is most effective when it judiciously mixes truth and falsehood ...
