re As editor of the Daily W orker, in 1944 I reported the formation
f the American Committce for Yugoslav Relief. Under this inno-
. ent guise, the plan was to help Marshal Tito secure control of , | a
hat unhappy land. But many persons who are conspicuous as non- \ \ \-
Communists helped it along. Mrs. EleandxRoosevelt became hon- vy
orary chairmargnd among the sponsors were Senator Caow Presi-
dent) Harry $. “Iruman, William “Green and Pap Mura. .
There was also Rita\Hayworth. These and other sponsors dropped = 4}
out when in the course of time the Committce’s domination by the . ;
Reds was learned. But the organizatitn collected $3}006,000 before at
it was disbanded. The end came in July, 1948, and then it was
dissolved, not because Tito no Jonger necded help, but because he
had fallen into disgrace with the Kremlin. The new Communist m
line all over the world was to denounce him and to starve out his
rcgime—and this supposedly independent organization acted im-
mediately to choke off the flow of dollars to his bailiwick.
