Time Alone Can Reveal

To Dissolve the Third International, Foreign Observer Believes.

By WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Scripps-Howard Foreign Editor

WASHINGTON, May 24.—Time alone can reveal the full significance of Moscow's move over the week-end to abolish the Third International whose job heretofore has been to launch the world revolution as envisioned by Marx,

Lenin and Trotsky.

Coming at this particular phase of the war, it seems designed, at least in part, to abate the unease to which the International has given rise within the Communist-capitalist

partnership known as the united nations. Also as an answer to some of Dr. Goebbel’s raw - head - and - bloody - bones propaganda. But certainly that was not all

For, as the resolution of the presi- |

dium of the executive committee of the Communist International frankly stated, that body has long since served its purpose and its dissolution is overdue, ; war or no war. As § now organized, its activities would hamper more than they wouid help. In other words, the red bear's cubs have grown up. They no longer need to be breastfed by the mama bear. There is now a Communist party in practically every country, and these parties are so thoroughly indoctrinated that they are perfectly capable of going it alone. In fact, as Moscow observes, it is better that they should go it alone because each has its own peculiar problems and these can be solved by the leaders on the spot better than by those in the Kremlin. Moreover, as the Moscow statement pointed out, “communists have never been.supporters of the conservation of organizational forms that have outlived themselves.” On the contrary, they have been quick to change the form to suit “the fundamental political interests of the working class movement as a whole.” Marx Set Example

In this, said the statement, they are following the example of Karl Marx, who, after organizing many workers of Europe and America under the First International, scrapped it as soon as it had accomplished its purpose. Afterward came the Second and Third Internationals, which last is now on its way out. Another key to the meaning of the Moscow proposal may be found

General Secretary Earl Browder of the Communist party of the United States, says the dissolution of the Third International is of “no immediate concern” to his | followers. This, no doubt, is quite true. Mr, |Browder’s party withdrew from |the Communist International back in 1940. Nevertheless it has con‘tinued to follow the Moscow line

present day. Sees ‘Crucial Test’

Communists in the United States were bitterly hostile to the Nazis until the Moscow-Berlin pact was signed in August, 1939. After that, until Germany attacked Russia in June, 1941, they took the opposite tack. They systematically opposed |conscription, aid to Britain and American preparedness generally. After June 22, 1941, they switched again, immediately and completely. In itself, therefore, dissolution of the Third International would seem to carry little real meaning aside from that pointed out at the beginning of this article. The crucial test will come when each party outside the Soviet comes to apply Moscow’s advice to make its policy fit into “the framework of its own country.” For instance: A recent official opinion handed down by Attorney General Francis E. Biddle stated {that the Communist party of the United States had adopted a pro-

SOISSONS AREA

Germans Expect Allied Drive for Paris Soon;

Move Defenses.

By HARRISON SALISBURY United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, May 24—Any allied invasion break-through of German coastal fortifications in Northwest

France might result in Nazi abandonment of Paris to attempt a stand along the old Hindenburg line, 50 to 75 miles to the east. This theory is borne out by reports from refugee sources that the Germans have mobilized large forces of slave labor to build special defenses and fortifications in the Soissons area about 50 miles northwest of Paris. German military authorities are said to reason that the initial objective of any allied landing in northwest France would be Paris, in order to obtain the network of communications radiating from the capital. Due to terrain factors, the Germans probably recognize the possibility that, if the allies succeed in piercing coastal defenses in the region between Calais and Le Havre, the chances of halting the invaders short of Paris are not good. The German problem then would be where to make a stand. The French Maginot line was erected to meet attacks from the east rather than the west and many of the forts are situated on the wrong side of rivers and ravines to meet a drive from the coast. If the Germans fell back all the way to the Siegfried line, they would yield bomber bases within calling-card distance of the vital Ruhr war industries. Therefore, it is believed likely that the German high command is preparing a new line of defenses about 50 to 75 miles east of Paris Rerorts of the construction of fortifications near Soissons suggest that this city, which was the scene of some of the heaviest fighting of world war I, probably will be employed as a hinge for a reincarnated Hindenburg line.

SEES NO SHORT CUTS IN EUROPE INVASION

WASHINGTON, May 24 (U. P). —There are no short cuts in the forthcoming invasion of Europe or on the “march to Tokyo,” Assistant Navy Secretary Ralph Bard warned yesterday.

A resolution adopted after a heated debate in the closing session of the two-day convention, provides that “no individual who is affiliated with any organization that believes in the philosophy of a tolitarian government shall be eligible to hold office in the United Labor committee.” Robert Geiger of the United Steelworkers of America, C. I. O,, protested that the word totalitarianism was open “to many interpretations,” and added that “the minority believes that its inclusion is a slap at an ally that has given 5,000,000 of its citizens to this war; to an ally which has stuck by us loyally, an ally without which we might well not be here.”

CAR INSURANCE UNTIL

you read about this low cost plan

Never before has car insurance cost so little in Indiana. Gas rationing has brought drastic reductions in rates. In addition, you may enjoy further savings, under the Liberty Mutual plan. Every year since 1912, Liberty Mutual has returned cash dividends of 20% to policyholders —a saving of one fifth of initial premiums. We have saved and returned $109,467,702 to insurance buyers. Indiana motorists are fortunate that protection is available at such amazingly low cost at a time when a new law with teeth in it makes car insurance urgently necessary.

On July 1, 1943, the Indiana Motor Vehicle Safety-Responsibility Act will go into effect. This law is designed to permit only financially responsible people to drive. If you should have an accident and do not have $11,000 in cash or securities — or do not carry car insurance or a bond — you may lose your license and registration. If you depend upon your autorsobile to get to and from work — you certainly cannot afford to drive a block without securing adequate car insurance or a bond. Liberty Mutual will send you a summary of the law, in response to

Inflation Gap Tough on Hose

WASHINGTON, May 24 (U. P.). —The inflationary gap isn't the only gap that's worrying the nation, according to Rep. Robert A. Grant (R. Ind).

shock to our society” and result in the loss of “the very democratic principles for which we fight,” Secretary of Navy Frank Knox said here. “When the war is over and the victory is won there will be a loud clamor to ‘send the boys home,” Knox said at the 102d commencement exercises at Bethany college yesterday. “If the demobilization is disorderly it may well be a devastating shock to our society,” he said. “Millions of young men will have to ‘be absorbed in industry, business, | agriculture and education. I hope and pray the opportunities will be there and that we will contrive an orderly demobilization. “The problem demands our best thinking and planning, lest through chaotic demobilization we lose the very democratic principles for which
