The speaker on the KPD platform

On the platform, beneath a framed portrait hung on a dark curtain, a man in a dark suit stands behind a table covered with a cloth and a large vase of flowers and speaks; at a table beside him sit a young woman and several older men, and in the foreground the heads of the audience fill the lower edge of the picture. The source names the speaker as Willy Bohn, editor of the Stuttgarter Zeitung. In the American zone the Communists campaigned alongside the other licensed parties.
