MOVIES AS TEACHERS

As human knowledge becomes more extended and modern life be- comes more complex, it is utterly impossible for any individual to ab- sorb more than an insignificant DOT tion of the information which would be available to him had he the time to apply himself to it's acquisitio.
 Even to keep in touch with the marvellous developments of the pres ent day is beyond the grasp of the average person, let alone any pro- found delving into the lore of the past.
 After day of routine duties few have the inclination to pursue studies which add to their information and culture. Here is where moving pie lures might be utilized most effec- lively to teach as we'll as to enter tain. Here millions who could never, be induced to open a serious book ullSuG lSCC1fS tdludUlC 1uIO1 uldllOu Uy the easiest as we'll as the most di- rect means, the impressions made be- ing also more enduring than those gained from the printed page. If accompanied by brief oral explana- tions, the picture method would be ideal for imparting a wide range of knowledge.
 In the instruction of children this would hold good to an even greater degree, especially in the teaching of history and the natural sciences. In fact the possibilities for rapid, ac- curate and lasting instruction by this means is almost limitless.
 The time will no doubt come when every progressive school will have moving picture machine as an im- portant part of it's equipment.

OUTLAW THE SUBMARINE

While the loss of the S-51 was not necessarily due to the fact that it was a submarine, the disaster may serve to direct attention to the truth that undersea craft have no utility except to cause destruction and death.
 In several respects they differ from any other form of armament While other military equipment warships, artillery, small arms and bombs-are also of no value except to destroy an enemy, they do not menace the lives of those who han de them in training and practice to any unusual extent.

District Eight Makes
Strong Protest

District Council No. 8 (chicaao) OF
the international Association Of Ma.
chinists, at a meeting held last Mon
day night protested against a decision
Of the grand lodge that all members
Of the I. A. N. who are also mem
bers Of the Workers Communist
Party, the Trades Union Educational
League or the Young Workers League
should sever their connections with
those organizations within sixty days
or suffer expulsion from the interna-
tional union.
The only member of the internation-
al board who voted against the deci-
sion is Vice President Harmon, who
was elected on the Anderson slate.
Harmon was the only opponent OF
"B. e. o. Bill" that the machine was
not able to count out.
Denounced Decision.
Several speakers denounced the de-
cision as another attempt on the part
Of Johnston TO disrupt the union. The
Communists were praised as good
union men. One speaker said that Il
was not the Communists who were
breaking up the union, but William II.
Johnston.
The delegates to the council were
decidedly in favor Of living up TO the
laws Of the union which guarantee TO
every member the right to hold any
political belief he sees At.
District No. OF the International
Association of Machinists is the larg-
est In the country. 1t is strongly for
Anderson and against Johnston.

foreign language press is a means of
combating the nationalist influences
OF the immigrant bourgeois groups
among the workers coming from the
same country. It Is therefore partic.
ularly important that the party take
steps towards the Bolshevization of
the foreign language press.
Many of the shortcomings of the
press are due to lack of intelligent
Communist forces, to lack of means
and to difficulties OF translating ma.
terial into another language. How.
ever. many defects are a common &C.
currence in the foreign language
press. Too muchs stress is being
laid on the problems of one particu-

them. The Chicago pressmen, for in
stance, had shown now hungry the
masses are for Communist publica-
lions. Foreign writer's were needed,
which financial shortage had so far
precluded. Better structural facilities
were needed to take care that the
readreaders we gained In various cam
aigns were not lost to the DAILY
WORKER after the campaign, the
strike or other activity was ended.
We must teach the workers them
selves to write of their conditions, and
the building up of host OF worker
correspondents would be the building
up of the DAILY WORKER. The

know that altho the foreign Ian
guage press has been drawn closer to
the party the last year and a half
than ever before, that it carries more
purely party material than ever be-
fore, that the foreign language press
still suffers from a lack Of centraliza-
ton. And this lack of Capitalization
is due partly to lack Of understand
ing of the role Of the declarations and
partly to very severe mechanical obsta-
cles. What we need, think, from the
editorial end, is party press service
that takes every day the best material
in the DAILY WORKER and our other
English language organs, collects 9th
er material, and sends it systematical-
ly and regularly to the foreign Ian
guage press. At the present time our
party press service is more or less
spasmodic. There is no particular sys-
tenn. Sometimes good articles are sent
out; sometimes bad ones. Sometimes
there is one reason for sending out a
certain article sometimes there is an
other. What we need first of all is a
centralized press bureau that will
make, thru the connection of the for
eign language press directly with our
official organ that organ the spokes-
man for every section Of the party
Then there must be set UP as a sec
ton of the Agitpop department an
editorial board or bureau that will
follow closer the political lines of the
foreign language press as well as that
of our official organ, correct any devil
alton as soon as it appears and not
allow these right tendencies, these de-
viations from the straight line of the
Comintern, to become running sores
in our party.

Gomez gave a general outline of the
growth and development Of American
Imperialism IN all sections of the
world Europe, Asia, and particularly
Latin America. -
Leads to War.
Imperialism leads to military com
petition and directly to war. Militar.
ism results from concentration ~ dn-
ancial and Industrial power. Sketching
over the points Of work done, Comrade
Gomez accented the need, not Of sim
pie argument TO prove the existence
of imperialism, but to set masses into
motion against it.
gThe work of the party had been but
a beginning, yet a good beginning.
The first real connection with the
peoples oppressed by United States
The fight had begun
upon the corruption Of labor by impe-
rialism by the Pan-American Fedora
ton of Labor. Connection had been
made with Philippine elements by
Comrade Wagenknecht resulting in
five delegates to the Canton confer
ence of marine workers.
Much Work Done.
Much work had been done in Latin
America, Mexico, Cuba, the demon
STATIONS in Costa Rica, Uruguay,
Cuba, Mexico and Chile. The re-
sources and time had been little, but
fha field &c oraof VIZ vronoao q -.
gress Of anti-imperialism to be held in
Argentina. The New Orleans marine
conference was also step in the
course of this work. -
The work in carrying out a cam.
paign to oppose American imperialism
in China and the far east. Turnout
the country demonstrations had been
held, wide distribution Of leaflets had
been carried on and contact of the
highest degree Of Importance estab-
lished with Chinese elements OF the
Kuomintang national revolutionary
party.
Not Interested in War Game.
Comrade Wolfe, reporting for the
minority, criticized the attitude of
Comrade Gomez toward the work OF
the Mexican secretariat and several
actions in which conflict had resulted.
The headquarters OF the Anti-Impe-
rialist League should be in Latin
america. Campaigns had been pro-
posed for Latin America, such as a
campaign of protest against the send
ing OF the American feet to the Pa
cific. in which Latin Americans were
not interested. Criticizing the compo-
sition of the majority as backward
element 1t could not formulate or
carry out effective campaigns in this
or in other fields. The speaker pro-
posed certain measures to correct the
errors he had charged.
