Speeches made at the CROM con- vention accused the Gil government of attempting to destroy the CROM and stated. that Gil was subsidizing the Communists in order to. break the CROM’s power in the state of Coahuila. They. further charged that the government is organizing independent state labor federations. Attack Rivera Appointment. Attacks were further made against the appointment of Diego Rivera, secretary of the All-Amer- ica Anti-Imperialist League of Mex- ico, to the head of the government's fine arts department, altho the ap- pointment is obviously.a futile at- tempt to buy off the activities of Rivera. > The autonomous trade unions are now in session to draw up a reply to the CROM’s attack. 2 The attack of the CROM follows immediately upon the government’s refusal to suppress a play now be- ing produced at the Lyrie Theatre, which the officialdom of the CROM asserts is hostile to that organiza- tion, It is believed that the officialdom of the CROM are seeking to crush the Theatre Workers’ Union which is established at the theatre. The workers meanwhile are fight- “The CEC is. entirely correct when it points out ‘that the recur- rence of Tretskyism in our Party at this time is @he conseqtence of the ‘objective conditions «of the country, of the working class, and in’ the situation of our. Party.’ Shrinking from these difficulties, those who have tired of the strug- themselves with similar groups of renegades who form the interna- tional opposition to Communism under the ridiculous pretense that they are more revolutionary than the loyal revolutionary workers who persist in the struggle despite all dangers and difficulties. “The prompt and decisive meas- jures which the CEC has adopted in combatting Trotskyism and the right danger of which Trotskyism is one manifestation, the expulsion of Cannon, Schaéchtman, Abern and other known Trotskyites, are en- tirely cofréect and consistent with the best interests of the Party.
