Forinstance,thosewhodeclaredthatDr.Evatt andhisfriendswereallCommunists,wereneither fairnorjust.Similarly,thosewhosaid:"Ihave alwaysvotedLabourandalwayswill,"hadnot sincerelyandcalmlyexaminedthesituation.

NowtheLabourMovementwas,withoutdoubt, themostpowerfulforceinourcountrytoday.That wasbecauseofthenumberswhooweditallegiance andbecauseofthetremendouspoweritwielded throughtheTradesUnions.

HoweversincethesocialistobjectiveoftheLabour Partyhasneverbeenclearlydefined,thereisroom inthePartyforbothschoolsofthought.Sothat iswhytheLabourPartycanhavealeftwing,as theextremesectionisusuallycalled.

Letmenow,showyouhowtheCommunistPlan forgainingcontroloftheLabourMovement,works out:-

Thefirstimportantstepistosmashtheunityof theLabourPartyandbyeverypossiblemeanssecurevictoryfortheleftwing.Fromthisvictory theCommunistsforseetwothingswillhappen:the squeezeoutofthemoderatemenandthefillingof thosevacancieswithdyed-in-the-woolleftists.

LetmequotecomradeSharkeytoprovemypoint. WritingintheCommunistReview(July1952)he says:"Itisaquestionforusofsettingoutconsciously tofosteraleftwingintheLabourParty-toencourage alltheincipientrevoltsexpressingthemselvesinthe LabourParty."

RedsAimToSmashLabourUnity

IntheAprilissueofthesameReview1953,this samecomradefurtherstates:"OurPartyLeadership muststudythedevelopmentswithintheLabour Party,thedivisions,themovesamongtherankand file,anddeveloptheunitedfronttacticstoseize everysituation.Bythetacticsoftheunitedfront, weaimtowrestthemassesoftheworkingclass fromthegripofthetreacherousLabourParty Leaders."

ThosewordsshowclearlythattheaimoftheCommunististosmashLabourunityandformaunited frontwiththeextremists.

Thesecondstepistheinfiltrationofthisleftist LabourPartywithundercoverCommunists.Sincein Australia,Communistscannothopetobeelectedto Parliamentontheirownticket,whynotposeasleft wingLabourmenorSocialistsandthusgainendorsementbytheofficialLabourParty?

Againinproofofmystatementletmequotethe CommunistReview.WritingintheSept.issue1952, comradeAarons(Communistsecretary,N.S.W.)says: "ItisthetaskoftheCommuniststoassistandtolead thisLeftWingintheA.L.P."HowcantheCommunistsleadthisLeftWingunlessbyinfiltration methods?

Thensuddentlyheturnedsavagelyuponthem.He declaredthattheiraimwastoseizecontrolofthe LabourParty.HethendeniedthemtheA.L.P. backingandthiswastantamounttoliquidatingthem.

InfacttheCommunistPresswassoelatedatthis latterpronouncementthatitdeclaredtheLabour PartyandtheCommunistPartywerenowmarching underthebannerofacommonpolicy-andweall knowwhatistheaimofCommunistPolicy-Red WorldConquest!

Moreover,whentherisingstookplaceinEastBerlin andinPoznam-whenlastOctoberRussiantanks werecrushingthebodiesofHungarianworkersand patriots,thisfearlesschampionofthedown-trodden scarcelyopenedhismouth.Hisloudvociferationsin defenceofCommunistsandhisalmostcomplete silenceinthefaceofRedbrutalitymustsurelyforce anyreasonablemantosuspecthim.

IsDr.EvattCommittedTooFar?

Therefore,Idonotthink,inthelightofwhathas beensaid,thatthisquestionisunfair:"HasDr.Evatt committedhimselfsofarwiththeCommuniststhat heisnolongerafreeagent?Hashenowtodojust whatheistold?"

Dr.Evatthasgivenexplanationsforhisconduct. Butdoesitseemthattheseexplanationshavebeen requiredfartoo'oftenandsoundlessandlessconvincing?

IftheGovernmenteventuallygrantstheconcessions tountouchablesconvertedtoBuddhism,itcannot consistentlydenysimilarprivilegestoCatholicsbelongingtothe"scheduledcastes,"manyofwhomdo notatpresenthavethem.

Becauseoftheireconomicandsocialbackwardness, the"scheduledcastes"ofIndiaareunderthespecial protectionofthenationalandStateGovernments. Theuntouchables,alsocalledharijans,areentitled tograntsofGovernmentlands,assistanceinfinding jobsandotheraids.
