the first two years of the FPCC's existence there was a
struggle between Communist Party (CP) and Socialist Workers
Party (SWP) elements to exert their power within the FPCC
and thereby influence FPCC policy. This source added that
during the past year there had been a successful effort by
FPCC leadership to minimize the role of these and other
organizations in the FPCC_so that their influence as of
May, 1963, was negligible()\
