U S Communist Party Reorganizes Under Another Name
In May 1944 the Communist Party of the United States dissolved under its old name and reformed as the Communist Political Association. Four hundred delegates at a New York convention, led by Earl Browder, declared a new front while affirming continuity with Marx Leninism. The group pledged to participate in New Deal politics and endorsed Franklin D. Roosevelt for a fourth term, linking the reorganization to broader international communism and U.S. labor groups.
