TALKS BEGIN IN MOSCOW
Fifty Communist Leaders Meet
MOSCOW, November 14.
Activity outside the headquarters of the Soviet Communist Party’s Central Committee today suggested that 50 Communist leaders from Europe and Asia had opened their own “Commonwealth conference” to review their global programme. No communique was issued and it was considered more likely tonight that a declaration would be published at the end of the conference, bearing the signatures of all participating Communist and workers’ parties.
The speech by the f «viet Communist chief, Mr Khrushchev, to the Supreme Soviet on November 6 and recent “Pravda” articles suggest the conference will be strongly concerned with unity in the Communist camp against what was termed “splitting attempts” by imperialist circles—a term which recalls events in Hungary b year ago.
Problems inside individual Communist States such as Poland are likely to be discussed as well as forms of Soviet aid to bolster the party’s ideological strength.
