A REVIEW OF THE SCIENTIFIC AND CULTURAL CONFERENCEFOR WORLD PEACE ARRANGED BY THE NATIONAL COUNCIL OF THE ARTS, SCIENCES, AND PROFESSIONS ANDHELD IN NEW YORK CITY ON MARCH 25, 26,. AND 27, 1949
Parading under the imposing title of the Scientific and CulturalConference lor World Peace the gathering at the Waldorf~A~toria
'Hotel in New York City on 1tlarch 25, 26, and 27, 1949, was actuallya supermabilization of the inveterate wheelhors~s and supporters ofthe Communist Party and' its auxiliary organizations. It was in asense a glorified pyramid club, pyramiding into one inflated front thenames which had time and again been used by the' Communists as.decoys for the entrapment of innocents.
The Communist-front connections of these sponsors, as reflectedby the tabulation in this report, are very extensive. One person hasbeen affiliated with at least 85 Communist-front organizations. Threepersons have been affiliated with from 71 to 80 Communist-frontorganizations; 4 have been affiliated "lith from 51 to 60 Communistfront organizations; 8 have been affiliated with from 41 to 50; 10 havebeen affiliated with from 31 to 40; 28 have been affiliated with from21 to 30; and 234 have been affiliated with from 1 to 10 Communistfront organizations. At least, 20 of these sponsors are 'either avowedmembers of the Communist Party of the United States of America, ortheir membership cards or party affiliations have been made.part of a.:sworn public record. In election campaigns, at least 49 have given.their open support to Communist Party candidates.
The purpose of the Scientific and Cultural Conference can bebriefly summarized as follows:
1. To provide a propagandist forum against the Marshallplan, the North Atlantic Defense Pact, and American foreignpolicy in general. , ,
2. To promote support for the foreign policy of the Soviet.Union.
3. To mobilize ~.\.merican intellectuals in the field of arts,.science, and letters behind this program even to the point of civildisobedience agallist the American Government.
4. To prepare the way for the coming World Peace Congress.to be held in Paris on April 20 to 23, 1949, with similar aims inview on a world scale and under similar Communist auspices.
5. To discredit American culture and to extol the virtues ofSoviet culture.

2 REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC AND CULTURAL CONFERENCE
NATIONAL COUNCIL OF THE ARTS, SCIENCES, ANDPROFESSIONS
The meeting was sponsor~d by a Communist-front organizationknown as the National Council of the Arts, Sciences, and Professions.The National Council of the Arts, Sciences, and Professions is adescendant of the Independent Citizens Committ~e of the Arts,Sciences, and Professions which was repudiated in 1946 by HaroldL. Ickes, its chairman, because of its Communist character.
In August 1945 June Hoffman, representing the cultural section ofthe Communist Party at its New York State convention, declaredproudly:
We built the Independent Citizens Committee of the Arts, Sciences, and Professions, and it is a great political weapon.
At that same meeting Lionel Berman, husband of Louise Branste.o,a known contact of Soviet espion~geagents, was praised by the culturalcommission of the Communist Party for his role in setting up theICCASP-Independent Citizens Committee of the Arts, Sciences,and Professions.
On August 2, 1948, Louis F. Budenz, former managing editor of theDaily Worker, testified before the Senate subcommittee of the Committee on Expenditures in the Executive Department as follows:
The Independent [Citizens] Committee of the Arts, Sciences, and Professionswas worked out originally in my office in the Daily 'Vorker. It was worked outby the cultural commission of the Daily Worker, of which Lionel Berman, of thecultural section organizer of the party, was a member, and he. was entrusted notonly by that meeting but by the political committee, as t.he result of these discussions with the task of forming the Independent Citizens Committee of the Arts,Sciences, and Professions.
The following sponsors of the New York conference have beenaffiliated with the Independent Citizens Committee of the Arts,Scien~, and Professions, which has been cited as subversive by theCalifornia Joint Fact-Finding Committee on Un-American Activities:Louis Adamic Paul Draper Thomas MannGregory Ain Albert Einstein John McManusSamuel L.

WORLD CONGRESS OF INTELLECTUALS
This conference was held as a follow-up of a similar gathering hailedby the Communist press and radio, which pompously styled itself theWorld Congress of Intellectuals. It was held at Wroclaw (Breslau),Poland, August 25 to 28, 1948. One of the delegates to the Wroclawmeeting was Bryn J. Hovde, head of the New School for Social Re-

search. He described his experiences as follows, giving an illuminatingpicture of its tenor and purposes:
Every speech insulting the Unit-ed States and glorifying the Soviets was wildlyapplauded. * * After the first speech by the Soviet novelist, Fadiejew, aspeech which for vituperation was never excelled and which set the tone for theCongress. * * * I wound up with a strong statement of democracy as theonly basis for peace. Xo speaker at the Congress got a colder reception. * * *Speaking was like throwing fiat stones on an icy lake.
Dr. Julian Huxley, director general of UNESCO, who attended theWroclaw meeting, Rummed up his impression of the proceeditigs asfollows:
The Congress from the outset took a political turn; there was no real discussionand the great majority of speeches ",,'ere eit.her strictly Marxist analyses of currenttrends, or else polemical attack on American or western policy and culture.
Among the international guests listed on the program of the I\.1arch25, 26, and 27 conference was the same A. A. Fadeev (Fadiejew)secretary general of the secretariat of the Union of Soviet Writers.
Among the sponsors of the New York meeting are the followingparticipants in the Wroclaw Congress: Jo Davidson, Harlow Shapley,Albert Kahn, and Howard Fast.
",Vho is this Alexander Fadayev, who sounded the keynote of theNew York Conference in his attack upon the North Atlantic Pact?He is the general secretary of the Union of Soviet "Vriters. He oweshis elevation to this post in 1946 to his tole of official a.xman for theCentral Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union,when on August 14 of that year it attacked all reprcsent~tives ofculture from humor to science who could be suspectedof any friendliness toward the West.
His fury against American '''Titers, who ply their craft freely andindependently beyond the confines of the Soviet dictatorship, furnishesa strange contrast with his servility toward the Communist Partyleaders. The :rvIoscow Pravda of August 29, 194~.,! quotes his speechat Wroclaw in which he referred to Eugene O'.N eil, Henry ~'liller,John Dos Passos, and other American writers as memberB of the"motley literary crew of reaction" of the warmongers.
He was accepted for this role only after the ~loscow Pravda hadaccused him of heresies and after he had given due evidence of hishumility by pledging that he would It attentively and lovingly" rewritehis novel, "Young Guardsman" to make it correspond to ·the "highdemands of the party."
German Fascists needed beasts
he added.American monopolists find beasts indispensable for the realization of their plansfor world domination. Reactionary writers, scientists, philosophers, and artistsare ready to serve their masters. They place on a pedestal schizophrenics anddrug addicts, sadists and pimps, provocateurs and monsters, spies and gangsters.These beast-like creatures fill the pages of novels, volumes of poetry, casts ofmoving pictures.
He compared them to "jackals" who "learn to use the typewriter"and "hyenas" who "master the fountain pen."
Referring to the United States, whose air of freedom he was recentlypermitted to enjoy, Fadayev declared:
The imperialists of that country, whose facade by the irony of fate is adornedby the Statue of Liberty, have taken upon themselves in great haste the role ofconspirators and organizers of a new war.

REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC AND. CULTURAL CONFERENCE 5
Choo'sing to ignore Soviet-Communist imperialist aggression inPoland, Rumania, Hungary, Albania, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria,Lithuania, Latvia, Esthonia, !{orea, and China, the ruthless violation{)f treaties and the vanguard activities of its fifth column in othereountries. including the United States, and flying in the face of thefact that the United States has appropriated for itself not one foot offoreign soil as a result of World War II, .l\iIr. Fadayev continued:
After the Second World War, the entire world was divided into two camps: thedemocratic, antifascist, anti-imperialist camp led by the Soviet Union, and theantidemocratic, reactionary, imperialist camp led by the ruling circles of theUnited States of America.
This man wbo was responsible for the purging of countless Soviet'writers, now either in prison camps or in their graves, went on toconlruent on the "cold terror"confronted by the ".Aluerican intelligentsia," declaring that "a writer who wlites anything dissenting fromthe official policy of the Governrnent of the United States is also threatened with 10 years in prison." He denounced "this rude violence"as a "mad effort to impose fascism on America by legal mean.c;."
Alnollg the sponsors of the New York Conference who attended themeeting at \Vroc1aw were: Saul Carson, '\'Titer; Norman Corwin,'writer; Jo Davidson, sculptor; Clifl'ord Durr, attorney; WilliamGropper, artist; Albert E. Kabn, coauthor of The Great Conspiracy;the Secret War Against Soviet Russia; Freda Kirchwcy, singer; O.John Rogge, attorney; Donald Ogden St.ewart, "''Titer;. Colston E.\Varne, consultant for the President's Economic Advisory Council,and Ella 'Vintrl'. The following participants .at Wroclaw were notin the publicly uunounced New York group: George Abbe, writer;Yaroslaw Chyz, journnlist; Catherine Corwin, actress; Leta Cromwell,professor; Florence Davidson, po,inter; G.

H.Smith, a social worker; Juri Suhl, '''-riter for Communist publications;and Dr. and lVIrs. tlack Paradise.
The Moscow New Times thought so well of the remarks made bydelegate Albert E. Kahn at Wroclaw that it commented favorably asfollows:
Albert E. l(ahn, member of the American Progressive Party and a well-knownpublicist, agreed with those delegates who compared modern American policyto the policy of Hitlerite Germany, \",bich had unleased the Second 'World ·War.The Hitlerites started off in the same 'Wav as America's ruling circles are nowproceeding. .. In a .....ivid speech, replete with factual material, Albert E. Kahn stressed thatpower in America had been seized by a small but extremely powerful group offinanciers and industrialists.
The Truman doctrine and Marshall plan. he said, were not the brainchild ofthe American people, but the monst.rosity of Washington and Wall Street.

against the "cosmospolitan" teachings .of "world citizenship," hedeclared that the Communist Party of the Soviet Union has-revealed the antipatriotic bourgeois cosmopolitan meaning of the subservienceto the capitalist West, has shown that admiration for all things foreign leads tonational treason, to the betrayal of the interests of the Soviet people and theSocialist fatherland.
This bitter hatred for all western culture and the attempt to divorce"'Titers, scientists, and artists from their own native land and win theirallegiance for the Soviet Union is the underlying aim and theme ofthese scientific and cultural conferences for world peace, of which theNew York meeting was a sample.
We must also consider as a part of this Communist world-wide"peace" offensive the statement of Nfaurice Thorez, leader of theFrench Communist Party, calling upon the French people to welcomethe Red Army on French soil in the event of an invasion and the factthat this treasonable declaration was echoed by the leaders of theCommunist Parties of Italy, Gl'eat Britain, Norway, Denmark,~1exico, Cllnada, Finland, Argentina, A ustralia, Colombia, Austria,Japan, Cuba, and Uruguay. It was openly supported by William Z.Foster and Eugene Dennis, speaking in behalf of the CommunistParty of the United States of America. The New York Conferencedid not take issue with these pronouncements. In fact some Communist Party leaders, like John Gates and Alexander Trachtenberg,participated.
EARLIER COMMUNIST "PEACE" MOVEMENTS
It will be remembered that prior to the launching of the AmericanLeague Against War and Fascism in this country in 1933, there wasa World Congress Against 'Val' held in Amsterdam in August 1932,under the chairma.nship of Henri Barbusse, the well-lmown FrenchCommunist. By strange coincidence the following delegates to therecent New York Conference were also delegates in Amsterdam:~/Iinna Harkavy, Scott Nearing, ~largaret Schlauch, and Bernard J.Stern.
The American League Against War and Fascism, formed as a resultof the Amsterdam meeting, was characterized by Attorney GeneralFrancis Biddle as an organization-established in the United States in an effort to create publ~c sentiment in behltlfof a foreign policy adapted to the interests of the Soviet. Union.
Its program adopted in New York City at a United States CongressAgainst War on September 29-october 1, 1933, sounds strangelysimilar to the pronouncements of the Scientific and Cultural Conference for World Peace and the Wroc1aw Congress of Intellectuals.
The black cloud of imperialist war hangs over the world * * *Onlv in the Soviet Union has this basic cause of war been removed * * *
therefore the Soviet Union pursues a positive and vigorous peace policy andalone among the governments proposes total disarmament * * *
The Government of the United States in spite of peaceful professions is moreaggressively than ever following policies whose only logical result is war.
In line with this outlook the program was implemented with demands for outright treasonable activity which agau are a forecast of

To work toward the stopping of the manufacture and transport of munitions and all other materials essential to the conduct of war, through massdemonstrations, picketing, and strikes * * *
To support the peace policies of the Soviet Union * * *To win the armed forces to the support of this program.

In the light of Soviet fear of the growing threat. of Nazism, the international Communist line changed after the Seventh Congress ofthe Communist International in the summer of 1935, to one ofdemanding a united front of the peace-loving nations against theFascist aggressors.

which gained notoriety by picketing the White House in protestagainst lend-lease, conscription, and the national defense program.

After VJ-day, when the United States was no longer needed as anally, the K.remlin dictated an anti-American policy which is operativetoday, finding its expression in the "cold war" against the UnitedStates. In accordance with this approach a new front o1]'anizationwas spawned, which proclaimed itself as the Win-the-Peace vonference(Congress). -Sponsors of this movement included the following supporters of the New York cultural and scientific meeting:WiD-the-Peace Conference (Congress)

10 REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC AND CULTURAL CONFERENCE
WORLD PEACE CONGRESS
The New York Conference of ~:Iarch 25,26, and 27 was a forerunnerof a World Peace Congress to be held in Paris on April 20 to 23,headed by Frederic Joliot-Curie, an avowed French Communist.Similar "peace" conferences hav.:e been orga~i~ed under Communistinitiative in various countries throughout the world as part of acampaign against the North Atlantic Defense Pact. Hailing thismovement, the publication, For a Lasting Peace, For a People'sDemocracy, the official organ of the Cominform (formerly the Communist International), in its issue of Jvlarch 15, 1949, declared:
1\-len of science, art, and literature and the progressive intelligentsia of allcountries are actively joining the struggle for peace and have welcomed theconvening of a world congress by the supporters of peace.
A ~10scow broadcast in Spanish to Latin America on April 3, 1949,announced a projected "Western Hemisphere Peace Congress" whichwill coincide with "preparations for the \Vorld Congress of Peace,"and whbh is called by the Communist-controlled Latin AmericanFederatbn of Labor in opp03ition to the Western Hemisphere DefensePact and the North Atlantic Pact.
The Bulgarian Congress in Defense of Peace held in Sofia onAplil 3, 1949, announced its purpose in participating in what itcalled "a powerful front of peoples who are against war * * *the front of peace and democracy beaded by the hope of humanity, thegreat Soviet Union." Its resolution declared that it welcomed "theinitiative for convening of an international congress for the defenseof peace," and that it would "send its delegates to this congress" inorder "to express its admiration to the Soviet Union, bulwark of peaceand democracy in the world, and its leader, the man of genius andthe conscience and hope of millions of humble people throughout theworld, Generalissimo Stalin," and to "raise firmly its voice againstthe hysteria of war in the United States."
A similar Congress for Peace and Culture is to be held at Rio deJaneiro, Brazil, iIi mid-April, sponsored by Brazilian Communists andtheir fellow travelers.
A ~10scow broadcast of April 2, 1949, announced that a-people's movement for peace against the warmongers is gaining ground in. thenew democracies. More public, social, and cultural organizations of Poland,Bulgaria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Rumania, and Albania express a strongdesire to partake in the World Congress of Partisans of Peace.
Any strong desire contrary to the ",ishes of the Communist dictatorsin these states, would, of course, receive the penalty of a firing squador a concentration c~p.
Frederick Joliot-Curie, the French Communist and atomic scientist,who is in charge of arrangements for the Paris Conference, has announced that among the American delegates would be Charles Oha.plin,O. John Rogge, Rockwell Kent, L-ouis Untermeyer, Howard Fast,Johannes Steele, Artie Shaw, and Rabbi J. X. Oohen.

HIGH LIGHTS OF THE SCIENTIFIC AND CULTURALCONFERENCE
Certain outstanding features of the Waldorf-Astoria Conference ofMarch 25, 26, and 27 are worthy of note in revealing its nature andaims. First and foremost was its Communist character. From theoutset Secretary of State Dean Acheson referred to the gathering as"a sounding board for Communist propaganda." The State Department pointed out that "none of the cultural leaders of eastern Europe"who attended "were free to express any view other than that dictatedby the political authorities in ~'1oscow," and expressed no doubt "asto the manner in which the Communists will attempt to use the manipulate" the Conference.
It is significant that one of the unpublicized participants was noneother than Alexander Trachtenberg, head of the International Pub..lishers, Communist publishing house, the Fadayev of the COlnmunistParty of the United States, in other words its cultural commissar.He was the reporter on Comrllunist literatnre at the Comlnunist Partyconventions of 1936 and 1937, brain truster of such cultural fronts asthe Workers Cultural Federation, the Jefferson School of SocialScience, the Book Union, the Workers School, and the League ofAmerican 'Vriters, who at one time was in charge of the mass distribution of ~talin's statement on the Soviet Constitution. Accompanying him were John Gates, member of the national board of theCommunist Party, United States of America, now under grand-juryindictment, and Claudia Jones, member of the national committee ofthe Communist Party, United States of .America, now being held fordeportat.ion. ,
Referring to this Conference, Henry Kassyanowicz, broadcastingfrom Warsaw on ~farch 30, 1949, declared:
N'otably it testified to tbe fact that the Communists are the vanguard of theworld peace movement.
Elsewhere we have stated in detail the number of outright membersof the Communist Party who participated as well as those who havesupported the Communist Party at one time or another.
12 REVIEW OF SCIE~'"TIFIC AND .CULTURAL CONFERENCE
So clearly was it understood that Communists were in the saddlethat Prof. William Olaf Stapledon, of Great Britain, a. delegate, franklyadmitted that he "believes in working with· Communists" on certainoccasions.
In keeping with the general tone of the Conference, a resolution wasadopted defending the Communist leaders now on trial for teaching
_ and advocating the overthrow of our Government by force and violenceand condemning the proceedings as "heresy trials of political philosophies' and attempts to limit and destroy the right of association."Present on the dais at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel were the threeprofessors dismissed from the Univ:ersity of ,\Vashingf.4)n after theirCommunist Party membership had been established.
CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE
A member of the Communist Party struck the main chord of theConference in his outright advocacy of civil disobedience. Chosen forthis role was Richard Boyer, who spoke openly as a member of theCommunist Party. Just as the party speaks in the name of Jefferson,Paine, and Lincoln to disguise its character as a Soviet fifth column,Boyer enunciated his Kremlin-inspired message in the name of suchoutstanding American litelary figures as Ralph Waldo Emerson andHenry D. Thoreau. It would be well to give serious consideration tothe insidious intent behind his carefully chosen words. "The writer,"he declared, "cannot safely surrender his conscience * * * toTruman." He did not comment on t.hose like ]"adayev and Shostakovich who had openly surrendered their souls to Joseph Stalin and theCommunist Party.
Defending these men and himself against the charge that they aremerely "regimented automatons bereft. of free will," he insisted that"Communist loyalty and COffiIDunist discipline is based on. individual conscience and individual understanding." In the first place,Fadayev and Shostakovich, who chose to capitulate to the CentralCommittee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union rather thango to a concentration camp or a firing squad, certainly had scantfreedom of choice. . As for those like Boyer in the free air of theUnited States who voluntarily choose to place themselves 'within theCommunist straitjacket, who choose to commit mental h81i.-kari,it would seem to us more a mark of degradation rather than anyoccasion for personal pride.
Those who have thoughtlessly lent their names to the so-calledScientific and Cultural Conference for World Peace, should weighcarefully the motiv.e behind his remark that "the very heart of Ameri~an thought was that no act or policy of the Government is bindingon the individual unless it meets the requirements of his conscience,"and that "it is the duty of Americans to defy an American Governmentintent on imperialist war." The conscience which Boyer prefers as aguide is, of course, the type which justified the Stalin-Hitler Pact, thepurge trials, slave-labor camps, and Soviet lust for conquest. Andthen this docile vassal of Stalin had the effrontery to demand that"We should be men first and subject.s afterwards."
In a similar vein, Ladislav Stoll, dean of the Academy of Politicaland Social Science in Communist-dominated Prague, Czechoslovakia,bluntly declared that "it is simply not possible not to take sides in the
REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC A..~D CULTURAL CONFERENCE 13
st.ruggle between the old, dying world of ca.pitalism and the new socialist world;" adding t.hat "we must unite for t.he destruction of theold order and the bringing on of the new."
DEBASEMENT OF CULTURE
'Vhat could be more debasing than the spect.acle of Shostakovich, atalented young composer, ousted from his chair at the !vloscow Conservatory of 1Iusic, at the behest of men in the Soviet politburo whodo not know the difference between a G clef and a hammer and siclde,bowing to their decree to produce music to "which workers canbeat time and hum as they try to accelerate production?" ~7hat couldbe more degrading to sueh an artist than his humble avowal at theScientific and Cultural Conference that "I know the [Communist]Party is right"?
Bewailing the charge that he had lost "contact with the people," hebowed abjectly and publicly before the "well-known decision of theCentral Committee of the Communist Party concerning music,"which by some curious process of Conununist chicanery, reflected "thedemands of the people." It was not Illude clear whether this decisionrepresented also the dClnancls of 15,000,000 unhappy inmates ofSoviet slave labor camps.
By their presence at t.llC conference, their sponsorship and/or theirfailure to express their disapproval, the following musical figures inthe United States gave their tacit confirmation of this fantastic doctrine: Zlat.ko Balokovic, Leonard Bernstein, ~·farc Blitzstein, AaronCopland, Olin Downes, Nforton Gould, Hay Lev, Alan Lomax, AubreyPankey, 'Yallingford Riogger, Paul Robeson, and Artur Schnabel.
IIFor the first till1e in history," Shostakovich announced, lithe statetook upon itself responsibility for the level and development of themusical culture of the people."
In answer to this totalitarian philosophy of dragooning culture,Norman Cousins, cditor of the Saturday Review of Literature, declared anlid a good deal of hissing and booing, that-democracy must mean intellectual freedom, that it must protect the individualagainst the right of the state t.o draw political and cultural blueprints for its painters and writers and composers. or to castigate them, or to enter into those mattersof the mind in whieh the individual is sovereign.
In an open lettcr to t.he Conference signed by Prof. George S.Counts, of Teachers' College, Columbia University, and Sidney Hook,well-known philosopher, they pointed out the plight of culture underSoviet system represented by Fadayev and his associates. We quotethe letter in part:
Over the last three decades, the l::)oviet dictatorship has mercilessly imprisoned,exiled, or executed distinguished men of letters in that country. These were notjust ordinary indh-iduals of mediocre attainment. They were men of staturerenowned throughout the civilized world to those who know literature and poetry.
Not one of tbese men is to be found anywhere in the Soviet Union. They havedisappeared without a trace. Some we know are dead. Some are perhapsdragging out their last days in a Siberian prison camp.
Addressing themselves to Dr. Harlow Shapley, the Conferencechairman, the writers asked:when the delegates from the Soviet Union appear at your Conference, to makeinquiry of them as to what has happened to the purged artists, writers, and
14 REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC AND CULTURAL CONFERENCE
critics of the Soviet Union. What has happened to I(ornilov, I(yrilov, BorisPasternak, Babel, Ivan Katayev, Grlov and Pilnyak?
There was no answer to this inquiry.
ANTI-AMERICAN, PRO-SOVIET TONE
Throughout the sessions the underlying ethme was pro-Soviet andanti-American. Clifford Odets, author of a number of pro-Communist propaganda plays, assailed what he called:one of the grea.test frauds ever perpetrated against the American people j thefraud that the Soviet Union is making a war against the United States.
He had only to tunc in his radio to ~10scow on any day of the week,to hear a snmple of the type of vilificntion and slander directed againstthe United States by the Soviet Government in its ideological waragainst this country for purposes that are obviously hostile andwarlike.
While Sergei A. Gerasimov, president of the Soviet Academy ofArt, and chief purger of Soviet films, declaimed on the lofty idealsof the Soviet "conception of life," of its "happy creativeness," of its"manifestation of good will toward the friendship of nations," CliffordOdets, son of a wealthy Philadelphia mattress manufacturer, who hasaccepted munificent royalties from Hollywood and Broadway, declaredpassionately:
I cannot blame the Soviet Union because an apocalyptic beast is running loosein our world today and its name is MONEY, MONEY. MONEY. As anAmerican, in the tradition of all American artists of the past, the moral valuesof my world are in question, not Russia's.
At the same New York session at which A. A. Fadayev eulogizedthe Soviet Union and its desire "for peace and friendship amongpeoples," Paul YI. Sweezy, writer on economics for Communist publications, fumed that-the real threat to peace comes from the utter and complete.inability of the rulersof the United States to devise 9. nonwarlike program for dealing with the overwhelming problems that are pressing in on them from all sides.
Simultaneously he denounced the ~'farshall plan as devised to ublocka real revolution in the economic institutions of western Europe."1-feanwhile Colston E. "Varne, who has defended the CommunistParty in the past, claimed that our basic national pattern is fastbecoming that of a war economy. I. F. Stone, left-wing columnistwho has defended the Communist Party and its leaders repeatedly,announced that he came to the Conference because he believed that"the mnchinery of American Government is set for war." Previouslyhe had written that every Soviet effort at peace had been rejected bythe United States.
These gentlemen chose to ignore the stubborn facts of currenthistory which have convinced even such an ardent advocate ofSoviet-American friendship as ~:frs. Eleanor Roosevelt, that-Russia, while professing a desire for peace. has actuany shown by its actions thatit intended to control as many nations as possible by imposing on them Communist ideas and in some cases, Communist economy. as well as the same type ofpolice stat·e which at present governs Russia itself.
'Vhether through sheer 4,J'fiorance or willfulness, they have arbitrarilyoverlooked Russia's responsibility for the present tension by her

numerous vetoes at UN meetings, by her refusal to participate ininternational economic, social, and cultural conferences, by her imposition of an iron curtain around her own people, by her refusal toexchange cultural information and students, and by her recentlyinitiated cn.nlpaign of extreme nationalism reminiscent of the regimeof Adolf Hitler.
SCIENTISTS
It is by no means accidentn.l that Richard Boyer's appeal for civildisobedience was directed to an audience which included the follo"'ingatomic scientists: Harlow Shapley, of Harvard University; 'VilliamA. Higginbotham, of the Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton,Long Island; William Orr Roberts, High Altitude Observatory,Colorado; Philip 1\.-forrison, of Cornell University; Victor Weiskopf,of the ~fassachusetts Institute of Technology; Oswald Veblen andAlbert Einstein, of Princeton. If the Communists could succeed,by playing upon the notorious political naivete of physical scientists,in inciting scientists to a "strike" against their own Government,or sabotage, it would be a real achievement for the Soviet fatherland.They would like nothing better than a repetition in the UnitedStates of the cases of the Canadian atomic scientists, RaymondBoyer and Allan N unn :\tIay, who divulged atomic secrets to theSoviet ~filitary Intelligence. Such is the main purpose of thisinternational movement, \"'hich is headed by Frederick Joliot-CurieFrench Communist and atomic scientist, who has attacked theUnited States for keeping the atomic bomb secret, a tactic he called"dangerous." Echoing the Soviet position, he has also demandedthe United States halt its production of atomic bOlnbs.
The ease with which ideological confusion, such as promoted by thedoctrines of Richard Boyer and Frederick Joliot-Curie, may pass overinto outright treason, is graphieally demonstrated by the case ofRaymond Boyer, wealthy Canadian chemist, sentenced to 2 years inprison on February 1, 1948, for his share in revealing the secret ofRDX, a deadly "Vorld War II explosive, to Fred Rose, leadingCanadian Communist and a former member of Parliament. Rose wasan operative for the Soviet IVlilitary Intelligence. "Ve quote fromProfessor Boyer's testimony before the Canadian Royal Commission:
Question. You were handing over to somebody, who was obviously an emissaryof the Russians, information which your oath of secrecy forbade yOll to give?
Answer. That is correct.Quest-ion. Would you like to tell the Commission what moved you to do that,
why you did it? * * *Answer. * * * I felt throughout the work that it was unfortunate that the
Russians, that there was not closer scientific liaison in connection ,vith suchinformation between the Russian war effort and ours * * *
Question. You realized, Dr. Bo:rer, that what you were doing was contrary tothe oath you had taken?
Answer. Yes.
The Canadian Royal Commission a.dded the following commentregarding Dr. Boyer's attitude:
Professor Boyer had not apparently inquired about the operations in practiceof the various official organizations engaged in attempting to organize exchangesof military and other information wiUlthe Soviet Union, nor about the degree ofreciprocity or relative balance developed in such official exchange!!. * * *We see however no reason to doubt the sincerity of his motives as stated by him-

self. This sincerity was played on successfully by an unscrupulous and moresophisticated agent.
Inconceivable as it may seem, these scientists who are allowingthemselves to become the pawns of trained conspirators versed in theart of subversion, are wittingly or unwittingly giving their supportto a cause which stands for the negation and destruction of truescience and what it stands for. Dr. Ernest P. Boas, of the ColumbiaCollege of Physicians and Surgeons, who for some unexplained reasonsponsored the conference, admitted nevertheless that in the SovietUnion-
Science has become the servant of the state to such an extent that the onlytrue science is that approved by the leaders of the state.
Under such circumstances, he declnred, pure science cannot flourish.Describing Soviet terrorism in the field of science, Dr. H. S. l\luller,
Nobel prize winner in genetics, and professor of zoology at IndianaUniversity, said:
About 7 months ago the Central Executive Committee of the Soviet Unionofficially repudiated the entire science of genetics and approved in its stead agroup of superstitions that hark back to ancient times.
lIe described how some of the Russian scientists under Communistpressure had "confessed" their "guilt." Others were banished. In1940, N. 1. Vavilov, famous geneticist and former head of the LeninAcademy of Agricultural Science, was arrested. In 1942 he died in&iberia and his most important papers were destroyed.
MOSCOW APPROVAL
A.t all stages l\1oscow has been out.speken in its approval of theScientific and Cultural Conference for 'Vorlcl Peace. The fact thatthe following representatives of Soyict culture had been permitted toattend the conference is one indication:
Alexander A. Fadeev, secretary general of the secretariat of the Union ofSoviet 'Vriters.
Sergei A. Gerasimov, writer, motion-picture director, producer i president,Soviet Academy of Art.
Alexander 1. Oparin, acting secretary, Biological Sciences Section, Academyof Sciences of the U. S. S. R.
Piotr A. Pavlenko, writer, Stalin prize winner.D. D. Shostakovich, composer.1. D. Rujansky, interpreter.Mikhail E. Chiaurely, film director and producer.
The fact that the following representatives of Communist-controlledCzechoslovakia were dosignated, is another indication:
Ferdinand Heroik, dean, at :\-Iasaryk University.Jan Boor, member, Slovak Cultural Organization.Ladislav Stoll, Rector, Academy of Political and Social Science in Prague.Jiri Hronek, secretary general, International Union of Journalists.
Similnrly the sending of the following from the Soviet puppet stateof Poland is a· mark of J\loscow approval:
Stanislaw Ossowski, professor of sociology, 'Varsaw University.Pawel Hoffman, journalist.
. Leon Kruczkowski, novelist and playwright.
The l\tIoscow press and radio was eloquent in its approval of theScientific and Cultural Congress for vVorld Peace, inflating its significance for its own propagandistic purposes.
REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC AND CULTURAL CONFERENCE .17
The Literary Gazettc, appearing in Moscow in the latter part of1vIarch 1949, carried an article by Boris Lavrenev, the playwright,ealled the participants in the conference the" real leaders of .lullerica."He described the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel gathcring as meeting-in the living gloomy jungles of Wall Street where the sinister plans of a new worldwar are being nurtured.
He predicted that the Congress would-lay t.he foundation for the creation of an active and effective front for peace andstruggle against the groups of frenzied cannibals who dream of throwing theplanet into the nightmare inferno of general war and extracting superprofitsfrom the rivers of blood.
He told his Ivloscow readers that the" dungeons of the anti-Americancommittee" are filling up with opponents of the North Atlantic Pact.
On April 1, 1949, llya Ebrenburg, Soviet publicist and novelist,hailed the "Congress of the American Intellectuals in Defense ofPeace" as the voice of "truly progressive, noble America." Yet1 week later his two early novels were castigated in the magazine,October, official organ of the SoViet Writers Union, on the groundthat his characters were not motivated by Communist conscience.In other words the most stalwart guardians of Soviet cultural purityare not immune from unexpected blows of the party's literary ax.
On April 2, 1949, Soviet commentator vladimirov announced that-At this Congress the voice of progressive intelligentsia made itself heard against
the ruling circles of the United 8tatcs-
adding thn.t-The Congress is a serious warning to the provokers and instigators of a new
war-they will not be supported by the masses.
But Comrade Vladimiroy made it plain that this movement wouldnot confine itself merely to speeches n.nd the adoption of resolutions.
The masses
he declared-do not confine themselves t.o the moral support of the promoters of peacej theywage a daily and active fight against the inst.igators of war. .
By way of example he cited:The statement by Sharkey, leader of t.he Australian Communist Party, that the
Australian workers * * * fully support the Soviet Union in case an imperialist war being launched against it, caused approval among the workers of Australia.
1\:lore specifically he pointed out that-A wave of strikes broke over the entire country in protest against those who
persecute the upholders of peace * * * against those who help the instigatorsof war. At the same time a strike occurred in the opposite part of the worldin the Belgian town of Antwerp, where the dockers ceased work in protest againstthe North Atlantic Pact.

Breathes there the man, with soul so dead,Who never to himself hath said,This is my own, my native land!Whose heart hath ne'er within him burn'dAs home his footsteps he hath tum'd,From wandering on a foreign strand?If such there breathe, go, mark him well;For him no minstrel raptures swell;High though his titles, proud his name,Boundless his wealth as wish can claim,Despite those titles, power, and pelf,The wretch, concentred all in self,Living, shall forfeit fair renown,And, doubly dying, shall go downTo the vile dust, from whence he sprung,Unwept, unhonour'd, and unsung.
