COMMUNIST BACKING
BEVIN’S FOREIGN POLICY ROLE BEHIND SCENES LONDON, May 2G. The Daily Telegraph’s correspondent at Margate, where the Labour Party conference is being held, says Mr. Arthur Horner, general secretary of the National Union of Mine Workers, though barred as a Communist from participation in the Labour Party conference, nevertheless will play a big part behind the scenes. Mr. Horner, for reasons perplexing to many delegates, persuaded the 82 miners’ delegates to the conference to support a plan which the Socialist leaders proposed for a great Labour publicity campaign and also to support Mr. Bevin’s foreign policy, though not without qualification. The correspondent says he learns Mr. Horner soon will be speaking on the same platform as Cabinet Ministers at miners’ demonstrations.
