...rabble-rousing labor leader, Brazil's João ("Jango") Goulart never hesitated to make political time with anticapitalist proclamations. "My only commitments are to the proletariat," he once said. As an opportunistic Vice President under Jânio Quadros, he toured Red China, heaping praise on Mao Tse-tung's regime as "an example that shows how people can emancipate themselves from the yoke of their exploiters." Last week Goulart, now Pres ident of Latin America's biggest and most important nation, arrived in Washington for a seven-day visit...
...preach worker solidarity to illiterates who have never heard of Marx, much less George Meany. I.C.F.T.U. makes a point that colonial officials cannot: that the time and money of union leaders in African lands are far better spent in free bargaining with employers to raise wages than in bitter anticapitalist, antiwhite efforts to wipe the employers out. The very presence in Africa of I.C.F.T.U.'s men as advocates of the employee underdog often strengthens the point that not all Westerners are ''colonialist imperialists...
...Mons, a crowd of 15,000 singing first the anticapitalist Internationale, then the anticlerical Down with the Cassocks, filled the city's main square to hear Renard lash out at Eyskens' Loi Unique and shout his creed.

Nonetheless, three staunchly anticapitalist preview visitors were impressed; they were reporters from the Soviet Union's Tass news agency. Last week the Kremlin announced plans for a Moscow amusement park-to be called either Wonderland or Pioneer Republic-built on a huge relief map of Russia. Of course it will feature rocket models and a space...
...Brotherland's countless fratricidal quarrels, satellite Bulgaria in 1949 charged Deputy Premier Traicho Rostov with plotting against the Communist regime and, just to give the case its proper anticapitalist flavor, accused U.S. Minister Donald R. Heath of conspiring with Kostov. The U.S. promptly broke off diplomatic relations with Bulgaria. Since then, Switzerland has been handling U.S. interests in Bulgaria, and Poland has been looking after Bulgarian affairs in the U.S. In 1956 the Bulgarians re-examined the Kostov case, exonerated Kostov himself-years after he had been executed. The U.S. ever since has been bombarded by the Bulgars with...
