LABOR AND BOLSHEYlSM

Is American organized labor in favor of Bolsh evism,
with the things for which Bolshevisn stands. and with
which it is associated, whether known under that name or
not? ~ ~
If we accept the American Federation of Labor as the
fair representative of organized labor in this country, and
the delegates who attended the recent federation conven-
ton at Atlantic City as fairly representative of their con-
stituents. the answer must be an emphatic negative, for in
that great gathering, on every test that was made, and
there were several of them, sentiment in favor of that lib
erty and order of which Bolshevism is an utter denial was
shown to be overwhelmingly preponderant.
On the other hand, if we accept the utterances Of the
labor gathering at New Ulm as representative of the senti-
ment Of organized labor in Minnesota, we must conclude
that Minnesota organized labor is given over to the devil
and all his works.
In a formal resolution the New Ulm convention adopt
ed a resolution endorsing the soviet government in Russia.
That endorsement carries with ii, as a matter of course.
the demand that American troops be Withdrawn at once
from Russia, and, by inference. the demand that the troops
of all other powers be Withdrawn from the country. and
that the persons and property. not only OF those persons
who have shown constructive ability in commercial and
industrial life, but Of the disorganized, disarmed, alright
ed and outraged peasantry, constituting nine-tenths Of the
peasantry, constituting nine-tenths Of the population, be
left to the tender mercies Of the fff-raff who have assum.
ed the role Of tyrants.
North Dakotans will not be surprised to learn that
among the men prominent in the radical councils at the
convention was Arthur Iesueur. one Of Mr.. Townley's
men. By temperament and association Mr.. Le-
sueur'is at home in his present surroundings. On numer-
GUS occasions while he was a resident Of this state he dem
onstrated his sympathy with the I. w. W. element and
sympathy with Bolshevism in Russia was to be expected
Of him: But that union labor in Minnesota is generally
in accord with that spirit we do not believe, and that the
New Ulm gathering expresses the sentiment OF the men
and women of Minnesota, organized and unorsanized, who
earn their bread BY the labor Of their hands. We feel cer
tain isfalse.

THE REAL LILLIAN GlSH,

Il would be terribly nervous were I
to become star and be exploited
everywhere. So much is expected OF
a star, for the public is of such ex-
acting and changing tastes. Forum
ately for me, my experiences have
been Of the most pleasant kind and
people have been good enough to say
many nice and encouraging things
about my work in Broken Blossoms"
Thus spoke Miss Lillian Gish-the
real Lillian Gish. And to show the
simplicity of her taste and the modesty
of her wishes, she was induced to
speak Of her work under D. W. Gri-
ffith's direction, a work that found its
first real expression in The Birth OF
a Nation,' and which has been
~Watched by a devoted public through
S Almerous other Griffith productions
q nd is soon to be seen so splendid!y
in that remarkable art sensation
Broken Blossoms" at the Washington
Theatre.
Mr.. Griffith trains all of his play
ers how not to act. That is the very
first thing he insists upon. We must
move through our parts just as we
would in real life. There must be no
artificial expressions and no posing
Mr. Griffith teaches that to express an
emotion you must feel it; then the eX-
preston will be real. Mr.. Griffith is
a dreamer who makes his dreams
come true, and his ideals of truth and
beauty are contagious. 1t is more diff
fcult not to understand him than Il
Is to understand him. His very sim.
plcity of method and his quiet direc.
ton make for complete harmony be-
tween his players and himself"
Next to her admiration for Mr.. Grit
fifth and her love of her work in the
films, Miss Gish Is devoted to her
library and her treasured books. With
her mother and sister Dorothy she
lives in pretty white house in Holly
wood, Los Angeles, and spends her
hours away from the studio in reading
and motoring.
Very few motion picture fans know
that it was Mrs. Mary Gish, mother
Of the two popular Gish sisters, WHO
paved the way for her daughters to
become prominent in the world of the
movies. Mrs. Gish was left a widow
in Baltimore when she was but twenty
three years of age. Some months afte-
the husband and father had passed
away Mrs. Gish was in New York.
\ She had her two girls with her, tiny
little blondes with curly locks, and it
soon become a problem what should be
done for their support. One day a
friend Of hers mentioned a popular
stock company. why don't you try
for something there?" the friend
asked. Mrs. Gish was astonished. Il
never have been on the stage" re-
sponded. That doesn't matter" was
the assurance; all you need is the
job"
The result Of it was that Mrs. Gish
applied for the Job" and, of all Won
ders to her. she was accepted. From
a very humble beginning she was ad-
vanCed to better parts, and her work
provided a good living for herself and
her little golden-haired daughters.

MIR r Az

That she is the sweetest little girl
in the movies" Is a phrase that is
gradually becoming linked with the
name Of Vivian Martin, who stars in
Paramount pictures. Miss Martins
portrayals are always SO unaffected
that those who see her pictures might
almost be said to be in love with her.
In her latest production, The Home
Tow Girl" which will be shown at
the Murray theatre today, Miss Martin
plays the role Of a quaint. little New
England girl, whose fidelity to the
man she loved is as immovable as the
mountain. 1t is the sort of role which
has gained for her the great / my Of
admirers of which she can, b,-t does
not, boast.

PRECIOUS old FLAG
Relic of Continental Army, Recently
Found, Seems to Have Been
Miraculously Preserved.

So great was the interest shown in
the battle flag of the Continental army,
found between the walls of an old
building, hat it is probable an eff
fort will be made to have the flag dis
played in some public building as a
permanent memorial of the Revolution,
says the New York Times.
The banner was found wrapped in
the buff and blue uniform coat of a
Continental soldier. Moths had con-
sumed much of the wooden garment,
but the flag, being made of linen, is
still in excellent condition.
The flag was found by Michael La
Vista in an old building which he
owns. He took the flag to E. NJ.

Pacing restless up and down;
People gathering at corners,
