a news conference today said the meeting in Poland at which representatives of nine European communist parties were present had "a highly official looking character" He commented particularly on the presence of A A Zhdanov a member of the Soviet politburo No Protests Planned In reply to a question the spokesman said he knew of no British intention to protest to the governments of the nine countries represented against the attacks leveled at Prime Minister Attlee and Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin in the manifesto of the meeting made public Sunday The spokesman added however: "This pronouncement (the manifesto) involves a clear deterioration of the international situation" A reporter asked whether there were any grounds for a British objection to the recreation of the cdmintern in view of the fact that the socialist parties of several European countries including Britain had themselves created a sim-- i 1 a r international organization with offices in London The spokesman replied: "We find no fault with the creation of this international communist organization It is a matter for the communist parties themselves Indeed we welcome the bringing into the open of activities which in the past we believed took place covertly" Nine Nations Participate He said the Comintern — a contraction for communist international — appeared to have been reformed with a slight Variation by the meeting in Poland The variation he said was implied by the fact that there are only nine participating members at present Asked whether he could explain why British communists were not invited
