He told theca (and his remarks were carried by Tokyo television) : "I becarie a Marxist after reading not only Marxist books, but also anti- Marxist and bourgeois books," The more anti-Marxist books he read, Mikoyan said, the stronger had become his conviction of the truth of Marxism. Such are the advantages of having been an Old Bolshevik, educated under the Tsars. Today the Soviet regime does its best to shield young Soviets from such two-sided reading. Vihen ravdla printed a report of Mikoyan's Tokyo speech the next day (5 tay), the statement quoted above was omitted. Mikoyan of course intended to show the Japanese a supposed Soviet readi- ness for a free comparison of ideas. He would not have made 2b)l V 6te'nents in the USS1a.

The 'C-5 ~I conli~,=aec,1 its anterat to push ahead with preparations for a world conference by publishing on 15 July the text of a 7,000word letter which it had sent to the CCP on lv June in reply to the .7 May CCP letter (the last of the series of 7 published by the Chinese .on 3 May). Obviously aimed beyond the CC? :eadezPL-ip to the reluctant leaders of other parties, the letter argues that a world conference is needed n o w -- to discuss the many important-changes in the outside world in the 6 years since the last meeting as well as to overcome the difficulties in the moveraent. It attempts to establish the right of the CPU to take the initiative in convoking one (cit- aa Had rose a In support), declares tae right of all parties attending the 1357 gnu 1063 meetings to participate -- and to decide in conference whether any new participants h~shou'l d be invited, and focuse,.i aediat.e attention on convening a pre- p,aratopy raeett ng of the .,u part es non na -ed by the 1363 conr'- ence to ca resolution. It concludes with the flat de- claration that no party can hinder the convocation of, or uni- laterally dictate terms for a conference. Unconfirmed repots state that the U distributed copies of this letter or a sun- Mary of it to ot+aer parties on 15 June. And it has been con- firiied that hhhrushchev will gather with Go uM:a, Novotny and Ulbricht in Warsaw on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the establishment of "People's Poland," 22 July, Meanwhile, the Soviet propaganda machine concentrates on the anti-Chinese of- fensive, with Pravda contributing at least one item alaost daily, with Izvestiya,"' oraturnaya Gazeta, Partiynaya ghizn (Party Life), 11[ow-iunist an publications-77 'less authority- u or y contributing other raa? era , an; a heavy boradcastthg schedule. 2. The s littin in the Japanese CP described in #32 has now developed into o en warfare,with rai-e WSJ publishing two strong letters it had, sen o the JCP and ~' he JCP publishin ac- cusations of Soviet interference in-Their internal affairs. (See Chrono, July 5 and continuing.) 3.

In a strangely defensive turn a t t&~,e end, however, the article indicates a mortal fear -- "a ,matter of life and death for our party and our country" -- lest Chinese cadres become "corrupted and demoral- ized" by such rev ,sioFa.'y st ideas and "the whole of China change its color." 14, The unexpected visit. of the high-level Maurer-led Rttc aniaa delegation to Moscow, on July 6 ender: with a joint com- munique on the l Leh which mentioned better mutual understanding but said notbj of any agreements reached. Meanwhile, the u Soviet-c strolled, multi-language _!Problems of Peace and Socialism for July 'published a lQn account, without comment, of ? 3e long 22 April 11umanian "declaration of independence" statement (July 9) -- just as it i ,,,?,;i reported , d (without confirmation as yet) that the 1umanians have stopped { participation in the 217&4 operation. 51 it is cpe.culate that the death on July 1-1 '11 r nch CP Chair :aan Thorea might lead to some relaxation of that party's ri i! d pro-Soviet stance . S. The C?NJ obtained statements of general alignment auains$ the CCP line from delegations to Moscow of two of the worl111's most militant "socialist" parties; the left-wing group split f o ,a the Italian SP (July u 9) and the Japanese SP 147 lam). 7. The Si no-Covje.t battle continues to disrupt the ac- tivities of the international fronts: dur n; h,s period con- flicts erupted in meetings of the . 30 standing secretariat ., (July 11) and the VTF e.aecutirve co xiiittee (July 14). S;~~ni icance: The C?SJ is attempting once more to seize the initiative in international Comm alst, affairs, bola in its long campaign to convene a world . oa' fere ace and its new s rive to overthrow the pro-Chinese leadership of the Japanese CP. With the publication of its l June letter to the C.CP, the C?SU has emphatically as- serted its right as well as its intent to proceed immediately with preparations for cpnvol:i.?;? a conference along the lines it has previously proposed. The Soviet case would seem to male it very difficult for any "fraternal" party to refuse to participate, no matter what may be the misgivings regarding the consequences. It remains to be seen whether these fighting words will be fol- lowed by equally militant acti, ns. Meanwhile, there is no evidence of any Soviet progress in brining the principal hold-ous among the major parties any closer to support for such a conference, -- but the formula stated in the above letter would obviate the Yugoslav problem by limiting participation, at least initially, to those who participated in the l 57 and lZ*J meet' Approved For Release 2000/04/14'': CIA-RDP78^-sd3061A000200080005-8 Approved For Release 2000/04/14 CIA-RDP78-03061A000200080005-8 (Cori,aentary Cont.)
