Pamphlet. Six panel brochure, minor foxing, 4x9 inches. Undated, but mentions the plan by William Bullitt to run for mayor of Philadelphia, a move he contemplated in 1943. A socialist labor activist, sometimes called the 'Negro Debs,' Crosswaith here argues that the Communist Party had a track record of trying "to utilize the plight of the Negro as a means of advancing the cause of Communism." Cites the Party's position during the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact as evidence of inconsistency.
