State Communist Convention this was considered as a Communist -farmed organization, It is one of the most important fronts. There is discussion of its absorbing the National Federation for Constitutional Liberties (as a civil rights branch) while this in turn may absorb the International Labor Defense. Full decisions of these matters are deferred pending the N^Y, City elections in Nov. 1945. After that, we can expect this new front to assume considerable importance.
