MR. COOKS “TREACHERY”
TRIBUTE TO THE PRINCE BITTER COMMUNIST ATTACK (Australian and N.Z. Press Association) LONDON, Monday. The Communist Party has attacked Mr. A. J. Cook, general secretary of the Miners’ Federation, because of his praise of the Prince of Wales in the interview published in the “Daily Sketch” on Saturday. It has telegraphed to him saying: “The Political Bureau observes that your treachery to the cause of the workers and your identification with Mondism has reached a further stage in your fawning adulation of a typical representative of the class which battens on the workers. Such nauseating slavishness can arouse nothing but disgust for you in the eyes of all honest workers. “We challenge you to give the names of the Communists who were reduced to tears by the appeal of the Prince of Wales. This balderdash will deceive no one. We brand it as a contemptible lie.”
