Creator Backs CIA Program Cont.
The piece details Allen Braden's claim that the CIA funded cultural and labor initiatives to counter communism, including a 1962 decision by UAW delegates to invest strike fund gains into the Free World Labor Movement. Braden says he proposed such programs in 1950, with approval from Dulles, and cites recipients like the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the magazine Encounter as examples of covert support. Victor Reuther rejected a CIA hiring request, and the UAW pledged to avoid government funds while aiding anti-Communist efforts. The article discusses several international groups and the broader strategy to mask American influence.
