knows masses and how they act.
With an amateur company of work
ers with insufficient properties the
production was nevertheless excellent.
Evidently the director could work
wonders with little at his disposal.
The playing was better than could
have been expected and the reason
must be that the workers who com
posed the cast felt every bit OF the
theme and acted with the feeling born
of actual revolutionary experience.
The devices used in the production
were in the latest European style,
with the scenes taking place in panels
so that quick changes could be ef-
fected by switching the action from
one panel to another.
Last Scene Powerful.
The last scene was oyerpowering in
its emotional qualities. On one side
was the prison cell with the shadow
Of the gallows on the wall and the
young revolutionary leader awaiting
death. On the other, the prison hos
pital with the sweetheart of the revo-

outside, the revolutionist is hanged,
his sweetheart dies. But the child
has been born. and this child is the
symbol for the new and glorious life
that must be born out Of the suffer
ing Of the present.

The Father of the Communist International

foundation for the international prole-
tartan struggle for socialism. The
Second International constitutes the
epoch in which the ground has been
prepared in a number of countries for
a mass movement. The Third Inter
national utilizes the results of the
activities of the Second International,
breaks with the opportunistic, social
chauvinistic, and petty-bourgeois ten
denotes, and begings to realize the die
tatorship of the proletariat"
In the same article Lenin explains
what he considered the foundation Of
the Third International:
1.-THE historic world significance of
the Communist International consists
in this that it begins to put into effect
the things which Marx has proven
theoretically to be a necessity, there
by realizing the consequences pro-
duced by the socialist and labor move
ment, that is, the dictatorship OF the
proletariat."
Lenin gave the Communist Inter
ton by the formulating many of
national not only it's theological direc-
ton by formulating many Of the
theses adopted by the Comintern,
which have drawn the attention Of the
Communist Parties to the importance
of the agrarian and colonial questions,
to the mutual relations between the
dictatorship and capitalist democracy,
but he ALSO participated directly and
actively in the solution of all problems
confronted by the Communist Inter-
national. Between Congresses he al
ways occupied himself very intensive
ly with the problems of Communist
Parties all over the world. And when,
in the beginning of 1920, he noticed
the appearance of sort of utopian
Communism. he began struggling
against it in his famous booklet, THE
Infantile Sickness 70 Communism, :"
thereby dealing death-blow to this
tendency
After the formation Of the Com
munist International. Lenin's main
worry was to close the gates to the
opportunist elements. The famous 81
points, which attracted so much at
tention, not only of the reformist
press but also of the capitalist
press, belong to Lenin. Lenin looked
upon the Communist International not
as a meeting place of all kinds of indie
pendent national parties, but as an alb
solute homogeneous international
fighting organization. However, he al
ways had regard for the situations of
the various countries, and never
presented exaggerated demands to the
newly-formed Communist organiza-
lions. for he knew only to we'll how
much effort 1t would require to
educate politically and organizations
ally and to put on the right track all
those new Communist Parties which
had just emerged from the ranks of
social democracy. He considered 1t
the best means to pursue a clear rev
olutionary policy and. in this sense,
he developed his activities in the Com
munist International. Lenin was, for
the Third International. what Marx
was for the First. The revolutionary
workers of all countries have still
lot to learn from Lenin's works, par
ticularly from his actions, because
Leninism and Communism are one
and the same thing.

OCT. 5 DESIGNATED LIFE INSURANCE DAY
Business Has Grown More Than
 Threefold In 10 Years

Birmingham insurance men have en- tered heartily into the move to make October 5, Life Insurance Day. a notable event in, the history of the en- tire country.
 Life Insurance Day has been desig- mated in an effort to impress upon the public the need of carrying adequate insurance to care for loved ones after the Roll has been. answered." and in support of the belief have cited in teresting facts and figures pertaining to the rapid increase of the insurance business in all parts of the world.
 l"In a man-made world it is splendid tS know that more. men had on Decem- ber 31, 1923, provided $58, sos 534, BOT to be paid at their death to their wom- en. They had set aside as the one thrifty note in a symphony of ex- travagance, $9,454 ,620, ,79S in the best assets the nation possesses to make the $60, 0,0O0, ,000, 900 good. < \
 And in ten years the growth has been more than threefold.
 "As an institution that benefits men only in their hearts and women only in their extremity of bereavement and need, life insurance deserves a place Tn every dogma, and paragraph in every creed"

Birmingham people apparently have lost sight of the fact that the election last March increased the city tax rate, approximately ten per cent, Tax Collec- tor J. W. Hawkins said Monday. After the office had been busy all day, ex- plaining the, increased rate.
 The 1923 tax rate was $3.3O a hun dred, Hawkins said, but with the in crease voted last March, the 1924 rate became $3.60 a hundred. When the tax notices, mailed out last Friday, were received by taxpayers they failed to take the increased rate into consider ation when they noted that the taxes were higher.
 'Unless a property value has been changed by the appraisers" Hawkins stated, 'the rate should be slightly over ten per cent of last years tax. If this is so, then the cards are cor
 Of the Ss.e0, the state will receive 66 cents; the county $1.15; the city S1.b0, and the special school assess ment amounts to 30 cents.

COLLEGE STUDENTS
 ARE GIVEN TESTS

Intelligence tests were given mem- bers of the freshmen class at Birming- ham-Southern college Monday morning, by Dr. Earl E. Franklin of the educa- tion department.
 The object of the tSstsj 'Dr. Frank lin stated, was more of ap, experiment to determine the mental ability of tho students so as to corrolate these rec ords with their high school grades. The tests also afford equal opportunity to all students, whereas in the various high schols of the state there exists no uniform grading system that guar antees colleges the correct mental standing of the individual students, as compared with one from different school, with their grades being practi- cally the same.
 The result obtained from the group test is not final, Dr. Franklin de- clared. Dr. Franklin was connected with this department of educational work at Johns Hopkins university, while he was doing his graduate work leading to the securance of a Ph. D. degree. He gave tests to pupils in the high schools of Baltimore.
