Of thousands of them orphaned by

a country which regards its children

Books are written for them; for them

ITO govern oneself, to work, to be

nation Of children LIVES the words.
For them, they are not mere words:
they are the strength OF their mus

Their opportunity above all is that
they are beginning life in a country
where the nature of every existing
institution is being called in question.
1t is not only the social regime that
has changed; it is not only in the

Of unemployment in Norway, a great
demonstration Of unemployed took
place before the parliament build

that the session was forced to receive
delegation, headed by the Commun-

After leaving the session, Mausset
addressed the waiting crowd Of I'M

seizure of power by the proletariat.

BERLIN.-At a congress Of the
poor peasantry of Saxony recently
held at Koenigswald, the Communists
gained signal victory, despite the
strenuous efforts of representatives
of the German nationalist party to
swing the delegates round to their
side. The chief points under con-
sideration were the bad harvest and
the heavy taxation to which the pea
SAINTS are being subjected. After the
German nationalists had spoken at
length, a member Of the Commun-
list reichstag fraction explained to the
congress the sort of agrarian policy
that the German-nationalists are real
ly pursuing in the reichstag. There
upon resolution drawn up in &C
cordance with the line of the Com
munist Party in relation to the poor
peasantry was adopted unanimously
by the 700 delegates.

BERL1N.-The campaign being car
ried on by the German Communists
for trade union unity is proving ex-
tremely effective. The first definite
break with the anti-unity policy of
the reformist union leaders has been
made by the Berlin section Of the
German Metal Workers Federation,
the most important section of the
strongest federation in Germany,
which unanimously adopted the fol-
lowing resolution introduced by the
Communists at general session of
the union:
1.-THE session instructs the local
committee to request the executive
committee to take steps towards the
establishment of a Trade Union Inter
national and to agitate for all the
trade unions of the world taking their
stand on the ground of the class
struggle, and for their reunion in one

"GREED"-AN AMERICAN FILM
WORTHY OF SOVIET RUSSIA

One Of the opening sub-titles quotes
Frank Norris. the author, as saying
Il never truckled; never took of
my hat to fashion and held it out for
pennies. BY God, l told them the
truth. They liked it or they didn't
like it. What had that to do with me ?
I told them the truth"
Strange as it may seem in an Am
erican film reputed to have cost two
million dollars and two years in the
making, this fanatic declaration OF
faith has been carried out thru this
gripping, stark film worthy OF the
sponsorship of the Moscow Art Thea
ter itself.

that Of the whole fabric of bourgeois
social life anywhere is well put in
these two paragraphs:
I'm the daughters of the bourgeois
world, in whom intellectual activity
and familiarity with books develop
nothing but the analytical spirit, in
telligence is poison, knowledge is a
misfortune. Keen as their brains are.
all they use their mentality for is to
bolster up sterile pride in never
being taken in. What's the user they
cry. Logically, there is nothing for
them but to commit suicide.
"TkIHEREAS Lena is all for life.
NV What has she to do with bitter
skepticism, with despair, with the
view that humanity is cropping at
night in an impasse? With her every
thing is resolved into action. Nothing
comes to the surface upon which she
does not act"
Lena-indeed, an uncounted num-
Der of the youth Of new Russia-is
living and acting within the most
stimulating, invigorating, vital at
mosphere a human being can know
in a world of which the whole fabric
of church and state thus far has not
even dreamed. "She does not know,
nor so much as suspect, that one can
get satisfaction out Of owning dresses,
furniture, house, precious objects;
or experience pleasure in adjoining
oneself with jewels; or use ones
strength for oneg personal career, or
accept an idea for what it can bring
one." In a word, Lena is having her
life in civilization that is right now
consciously in process OF building
building toward ideals which others
have been content to dream about or
merely to mouth, but which the new
Russia is proceeding to translate into
every day reality. Little wonder that
Anna Louise Strong felt an irresist-
ible urge to return to Russia in spite
of illness and privation, that evea
the exotic Claire Sheridan, in spite
of herself, had the feeling that such
an atmosphere as this Of Russia is
supremely the one in which children
should be educated, that Nine. Marx
herself felt that the lot OF her own
child in France is pitiful compared
with that of hundreds of thousands OF
even orphan children in new Russia.
THE school Nine. Marx describes
one of thousands of the same
sort established by the new regime in
Russia-can be matched nowhere
else in the world. There the children
consciously create their school. 1t

Upton Sinclair, in his latest book,
"Mammonart," writes OF this story:
'The theme Of McTeague" (upon
which Greed" is based) sis avarice,
and we see a dentists Office with a
big gold tooth for sign, and all thru
the tragic story we run upon the mo-
tiff of gold in everything from sunsets
to decorations"
The director Of this remarkable
film, Eric Won Stroheim, caught the
same note from "McTeague" and
faithfully recorded it even to the ex.
tent of a subtle use of color photog.
raphy that emphasizes only the gold
and brass and leaves the rest Of the
picture in tremendously suitable black
and white and gray. Only twice do
other colors than gold get their
deserts-once in the greedy, green
eyes of the cat as she contemplates a
dinner of canary, and again in the
finale where a bag Of gold coin is
spattered over with jackass blood in
the sink Of Death Valley, as two
handcuffed men, hunter and hunted,
both victims of the bag of shining vel
low metal, settle down to their ap-
preaching death.
The capitalist press has either ODD
emily roasted it, or more subtly damn
ed it with faint praise on its artistic
and intelligent altho sad and sordid
qualities" The latter is the more ef-
fective method Of fighting good pic
ture, since many newspaper readers
have habit of judging newspaper op-
inions by opposites. Thus the dub

1t tremendously, or you will hate IT,"
That's the kind of film it is. It tells
the truth. About real people. And
real situations and emotions.
The final tragedy can be traced
back to strictly capitalist rendition
OF sacred mother love-" McTeague's
mother works herself almost to death

her all, ito make something of the

course, to take him out of the ranks
of the workers and make a profess

list. But instead Of this great "prog.

wife murder and a miserable death

''The Romance of New Russia"

IN boys school in California l was
/ reading to large class in Modern
History the story of what young peo-
pie are doing-are living in far away
Russia, land of the hated Bolsheviks.
To my surprise, even the most frivo-
lous members of that class listened to
this reading with intense interest, so
gripping was its revelation of a hu-
man social life utterly unknown to
their experience.
The book was "The Romance of
New Russia" by Magdeleine Marx.
published by Thomas Settler, New
York City. 1t was the story of one
typical girl of Russia-one of hun.
dreds of thousands IKE her in that
? country-and of school Of boys and
girls-that 1 was reading: parts Of two
chapters in this book. This typical
girl of New Russia, Lena" at 20 is
one Of IAN endless stream of youth
pouring into Moscow, eager for study,
without the remotest chance Of find
ing quarters, but confident of run
ming across some stranger-this could
happen only in Russia-who would
be only too glad to share his crust
and the cold attic where one stun
bled over sleepers when one came
home at night"
IkIAS Lena a Communist &.
wv Child Of a mechanical age, the
daughter of revolutionaries, twin sis
ter to the proletarian, enrolled from
birth in a mad army, in chaotic
world, Communism was not a mere
doctrine to her, parcel of ideas. It
was unscathed spirit of her twenty
years. her unerring instinct for nobil-
ity and justice, something that eman-
ated from all her studies; 1t was moth
ing less than the world itself, spread
out before her like huge arena; II
was the pitiless urge of her blood"
Nine. Marx had seen the older Com
munist women of Russia: Kollontai,
Krupskaya, Lebedeva, Gasparova and
others-the mothers, the servants, the
priestesses of the revolution-its
saints and martyrs. And she well
says that every sacrifcial and I'M
selfish instinct that is implanted in
human nature caused these older
women to become revolutionists."
DUT when you are with Lena, you
- have a sense of well-being, an
assurance that all the flood-gates of
joy are wide open. The older women

volution; Lena has RECEIVED every

Offer Two Measures
For Solution of
Nations Ship Problem

Washington. Dec. S.-(AP)--Two
measures dealing with the nations
shipping problem and designed to
end the troubles which have caused
a breach in recent months between
the White House and the Shipping
Board were brought forward today
in the Senate.
One OF them, sponsored by Chair.
man Jones of the Commerce CON-
mittee. author of the merchant mar
inc act of 1920. would provide for
enforcement of the shipping board
and the fleet corporation. Under
the measure all property would be
transferred to the corporation and
the board would assign to the presi-
Cent the fifty million dollars of fleet
corporation stock which it now
holds.
In the other measure, Senator
Edge, Republican, New Jersey, pro-
poses abolition OF the shipping board
and empowering of the President to
transfer all fleet corporation func-
tons to the commerce department.
The Jones measure in general Is in
harmony with recommendation
made recently to the President by
Henry Q. Dalton after his investi-
CATION of the relations between the
fleet corporation and the shipping
board. 1t would turn over to the
President the power of deciding
many of the questions which have
heretofore brought the board and
fleet corporation into conflict.

Nine Comets Now
Visible in Heavens
And Being Studied

Chicago, Dec. 8---(AP)--This year
Is an open season for comets. Nine
OF them are now visible through tele-
scopes at the Yerkes Observatory of
the University Of Chicago and are at
present under observation.
Prof. Edwin 3. Frost. director for
twenty years, says another astral
narauder. Tuttle's comet. may be To-
Gated before the close Of the year.
He explains that the planets move
Under the gravitatlonal control of
the sun. Several of the periodic
comets that come back this year
have periods of six or seven years
and are strong evidence the the pull
of the planet Jupiter has operated to
bring them into their comparatively
small orbit.
Among the comets under observa-
ton are a new one discovered by
Prof. G. Van Diesbroeck of the uni
versity staff when he was looking for
a comet first visible in Poland and a
comet located by an amateur astron-
omer, Peilter of Delphos. Ohio. The
latter Is said to be moving across the
sky four degrees day and would be
visible to the naked eye II it would
brighten up in a moonless sky.
I'VE cannot state whether 1t will
come nearer and get brighter. for a
comet is already close to the earth
as We my judge from it's rapid mo-
tion," says Professor Frost. ",rhis
one might be as close as thirty mil
lion miles. The Peilter comet is now
visible in small telescope from
about $50 to o'clock in the evening.
1t is in the constellation OF Hercules
and is soon to enter the constellation
of Aquila'
