OPC
Ten thousand copies of a poster headed "Peace fighter Vishinsky
laughs, but our mothers weep" are now being distributed througha
out Western Germany by a CIA propaganda .network. Forty thousand
stickers bearing the same message are also being posted.
Two CIA-subsidized groups in Germany, the Fighting Group Against
Inhumanity and the Anti-Communist Organization of Nazi Victims,
held a successful mass meeting in West Berlin 7 Oct., to protest
sentences handed down against 18 high school boys in East Germany.
The boys received sentences totalling 130 years for crossing into
West Berlin during the Communist World Youth Festival in Aug. '51.
The Fighting Group Against Inhumanity also has distributed a poster
over West Berlin asking for freedom for 50,000 political prisoners
and 37,000 political deportees.
A message signed by Undersecretary of State Webb was .sent to the
CIA-controlled National Committee for a Free Albania on 28 Nov. in
acknowledgement of greetings from the Committee marking the celebra-
tion of Albanian Independence Day. Mention of the event appeared in
the NEW YORK TIMES and the NEW YORK HERALD TRIHJNE on 29 Nov.
At a meeting of OPC's State and Defense Department consultants on
28 Nov. to discuss formation of the unitedi front among Russian
Emigre groups, Isaac Don Levine called attention to one important.
aspect of the matter. Levine said that some Russian groups engaged
independently in clandestine activities are so confident of continued
OPC financial support that they have no hesitation- in obstructing the
formation of the Russian Political Center along lines acceptable to
OPC. It was the unanimous opinion of. the consultants that'in such
cases political considerations should preaominate and that OPC should,
at its discretion, withhold operational support from any potentially-
useful group in order to get its cooperation with the Political Center.
