American Friends of the Vietcong

General Vo Nguyen Giap, the North Vietnamese Defense Minister and the director of the Vietcong war in South Vietnam, greatly favors the “policy of Front,” which amounts to using non-Communists to do the work of the Communists, or, as General Giap has said, “neutralizing all those who could be neutralized, dividing all those it was possible to divide.”

Communist-front tactics have been used throughout the world for almost half a century, and are being used now in the United States in behalf of the Vietcong. The prime movers are members of the Progressive Labor Movement, which is the pro-Peking faction of the American Communist movement. Internationa] coordinating committees have been set up in Budapest (for the youth), in Prague (for students), and in Hanoi (for the Afro-Asian anti-white fanatics). The youth and student committees are headed by Algerian Communists and have been extremely active in sending pro-Vietcong material to the so-called uncommitted countries. Just a fortnight ago it was announced that the next Communist World Youth Festival will be held in Algiers in August of this year.
