Typed report on CPI and KO activities. The meeting of 28th August demanded that all members secure new members, push the sales of The Irish Workers’ Voice, and the encouragement and expansion of cultural contacts with Soviet-block countries. John Nolan referred to his forthcoming trip to Poland, and Jeffares spoke of his trip to China. Such trips would soon cease to regard the USSR as the terrifying bogey-man. The names of those travelling to China listed.

Typed minutes of ‘V’ Committee meeting. The following items are mentioned in the report: Fr. Kent reported that the Bishop of Ferns told a friend that Murphy, T.D., was a Communist. He was previously employed by the British Air Ministry. College of Scientology: as far as the Committee was able to discover the College is not a cover for something (abortion) but is merely a bogus form of psychology and character formation. Dr. Morris, an Inspector of Mental Homes for the British Government, called on Fr. O’Halloran regarding a complaint from a parishioner. The Committee considered a number of recent happenings on the world of trade unions and for connections between them. Larkin, Nevin, John Nolan, Jeffares and Brannigan were mentioned. Nevin and Larkin had no hope of getting their idea of Full Employment across as there was no unity in the trade union movement. The CIU would have nothing to do with Larkin. Brannigan was distributing some East German illustrated magazines (English language). The Communists are concentrating on trade unions and this may be due to the “loss of the intellectuals” in Hungary.
