Erection Of power Plant Laos.

WASHINGTON (FP)-Annual pro-
duction of electricity by public utility
power plants in, the United States has
increased about 40 per cent in five
years, according to report made by
the U. S. geological survey. Total
production in 1919 was 1891 100000
kilowatt hours, while in 1924 it had
reached 59,O14.O00,O0O kilowatt hours.
Water power plants produced 37.5 per
cent of the total in 1919, and 1873 per
cent of the total in 1924-showing
that construction of hydro-electric
plants had not kept pace with the
growth in demand fca electricity
Coal used as fuel for the production OF
electricity amounted to S5,100,0O0
short tons in 1919, and to 1856, 900
short tons in 1924, while fuel oil was
used to the extent of 11,O50,OOO bar
rels in 1919 and 16,e3O,OOO barrels in

But there is, the suspicion that the
author OF The Green Hat, Michael
Allen, had an eye on the box office
in constructing his ending. At least,
two interpretations may be put upon
it. We would, prefer to think that
Napier was a. damn fool; that he lost
real woman. and was shunted back
to his empty headed, though sweet,
angel, to stew for the rest Of his life
in his own upper-class pride. We pre-
fer to think that the ending demon
strated the misery, the sad irony, the
hateful rotteness that accompanies
the bourgeois standards.
Part of our present day standards
are to let a best seller exhibit what
the bourgeois consider the rankest
filth, the most perverted Nominations,
as long as conventionality is served in
the end and the evil one who has been
amusing us for 200 pages is killed and
the sweet heroine marries the stall
i wart hero. ~
A deviation from the bourgeois stan
dards in the movies, for example,
| is permitted only on condition that
the black sheep lis killed in a rail-
road wreck and hubby and WHEY
make. up. And yet it is these human
and true to life "deviations" which
the people paystheir money to see.
The Green Hat, of course, does not
do this. Iris is the heroine to the
end, and she triumphs over the con-
ventions even in. death. But the play
sets one to wondering if Arlen did
not make concession to the conven-
lions in keeping the home of the weak
husband and the sweet wife intact at
the end.
Play Worth Seeing.
The ending leaves a way out for the
conventional playgoer He can say,
WELL the sacred marriage institution
is the strongest, after all. That just
goes to show, if the woman WOULD
go dashing about in a green hat, she
was bound to smash up against tree
sooner or later"
AT any rate the ironies are there for
tho keen eyed to see. the bourgcoisie
are dragged thru the mire of their
contempt for the improper" and
unconventional, and they suffer the
consequences OF the system which has
built up an aristocracy of the rich.
The acting, with Katherine Cornell,
Leslie Howard, Ann Harding, Eugene
Powers, Paul Guilfoyle and Gordon
Ash supplying an all star cast, is un-
usually good. The play is we'll worth
seeing. s'N

Khan Backs Gag Laws.
Efforts to get court action on all
these restrictive laws will be made

tional guarantee Of separation Of
church and state, it is believed, offers
a ground for contesting the laws re-
quiring bible reading. The U. S. SUI
preme court already has before it one
restrictive school law passed in Ore
gon and aimed at abolishing the
parochial schools. The chief sources
of inspiration for this new and unpre-
cedented crop of gag laws on teach
ing are the ku klux khan, the funda-
mentalists, and the professional pa
triotic societies. The khan is back Of
the compulsory bible reading and anti
parochial school laws, the fundamen-
talists back of the antI-evolution bills
and the professional patriots back "
the anti-radical and anti-pacifist
measures"

THE ART OF THE NEW WORLD
BY JOHN LASsEN.

BY JOHN LASSEN.
Modern Russian Art, by Louis Lc-
zowick, Museum of Modern Art, So
ciete Anonynne, New York, st.oo.
SO VI -
THE American book market has
Il been enriched by book which has
filed up void, The task accomplish
ed by Louis Lozowick is that he has
given a picture of Russian art today.
He does not assume the pompous
air OF an, official. arhiter but in the
most objective way possible he I'M
dertakes to make us comprehend the
tendencies which have stirred up the
calm waters of personal---very. art
into a veritable storm. Lozowick, who
himself is one Of the best American
artists looks at the art movement as
painter. With the eyes of a paint
err he Analyses what the new art has
achieved. OF first Importance for him
are the painting problems. We must
state that he has Illuminated the
problem in such a way that every
layman can understand.
In. very simple and clear language
he presents before us the problems
of the various schools Of painting. Up
on TERRITORY absolutely strange to the
American public he leads US with sure
hand.
From Bubnovy Valet, across the
Russian cubists, constructivists, SUI
premists to the expressionists LOCO
wick shows us the different schools of
painting. With cold objectivity he
tries to show us the various charac-
teristics of all these schools.
He shows the merit of the Soviets
which encouraged the untrammeled
development Of all these tendencies,
to the most audacious. He does not
criticise. He only determines. He
does this in such a way that every
one can Judge for himself. In this
objectivity he goes too far, in our
opinion, and does not point out the
mistakes OF the various schools, such
as suprematism for instance. In our
opinion it was not wise to give an
account of expressionism in the last
paragraph because expressionism is
evidently further development of
Bubnovy Valet. The determining fac
tor. in all these schools is the steady
trend toward constructivism.
The writer OF the book looks with
too much pessimism at the effects of
Nep upon art. The Nep liberated the
structure OF the whole economic life.
And together with that 1t assures the
final victory OF the proletarian revo-
luton. A strong proletarian state will
be a greater help than before towards
the further development Of art. We
are very sure that In Paris, Berlin or
London artists cannot find Mace
mas for their paintings OF black on
black or white on white.
For Lozowick himself who is
wonderful, most intelligent and most
capable painter who does not resem-
BILE these various schools, we have
nothing but praise on account Of his
remarkable objectivity. The book as
II is, is splendid guide for all who
are interested, in the labyrinth OF the
new Russian art.
The rich illustrations make the
book complete. What was impossible
for Lozowick to tell in words the pic

ner. We recommend the book to
everyone who wants to get look into
the melting pot in which is being born
the new art Of new world. ~

"The Green Hat" a dramatization
by Michael Arlen Of the authors novel
Of the same name. Playing at the
SeIwyn Theater.
The Green Hat is the story of a
misunderstood woman, Iris Fenwick
nee March, who battles for ten years
against English prudery to attain the
man she loves, Napier Harpenden,--
and happiness.
Iris and Napier we're palymates to-
gether, and in spite of the fact that
Napier's father, Sir Maurice Harpen-
den, forbids their marriage, the first
love of the childhood sweethearts does
not grow cold.
Iris marries, her husband jumps out
of the window on her wedding night
when he finds her somewhat disguised
upon learning that a prostitute has
given hubby venereal disease.
Napier fares somewhat better, ten
years later marrying Venus Pollen,
a pure sweet angel, who, however, adj
mits that it is somewhat boring to be
a virgin.
Iris has not revealed the true reason
for her husbands suicide, and in order
to shield her brother, Gerard March,
who worshipped her husband as an
idealist, takes the blame for her hus-
bands fatal leap and allows English
society to cast her out as a harlot.
Iris does not care much for English
society anyhow. There is no one so
lonesome as an English woman in
England" she says.
Iris is True to First Love
And so for ten years, wearing a
green hat, Iris haunts the capitals Of
Europe. But she cannot forget Napier,
and returns a few days before his
marriage to ask him to aid her dying
brother. Napier sends someone else
to console Gerald and spends the mite
with Iris. Their son dies at birth
Later, when Napier's wife is told all,
she agrees to give up Napier to Iris.
But Napier skaters Iris ideal, by tell
ing his father that her dishonor was
self imposed. Iris does not like this.
you've destroyed the only gracious
thing ! ever did" she says, and sends
Napier back to his wife, gracefully
eliminating herself by driving her
auto into tree.
Exposes Hypocrisy of Rich.
The Green Hat makes you hate up
per class hypocrisy, the false morals
and untrue standards of the self styled
aristocracy. 1t makes you hate the
smugness of the well bred English
gentleman"
A horde of "beastly" plutocrats
march across the stage. Napier is a
victim of the class from which he
springs. His love for Iris is to him a
weakness which he would like to
overcome. Napier deserts Iris after
her husbands suicide, and again.
allows her to slip thru his fingers in
order to marry the we'll brought up
Venice Pollen.
Napier is bound by his position "in
the foreign Office" by his rigid ideas
Of what is right and grong in matters
Of sex. II long for decency," Iris tells
Napier and his crowd. mot the de.
cency men show when someone is
looking at them, but real decency
when they are not being watched"
But so SNUG in Napier that the shaft
does not even sting him-he does not
know 1t is meant for him.
Perhaps the play ends logically
enough. Iris has put up a splendid
fight against the indecent, bourgeois
standards. In the end, her ideal is
shattered, her long search for her
lover beaten, and she has nothing
more to live for.

STARVATION CURE
BEING GIVEN TO
10000 MINERS
Pittsburgh Operators
Try to Force Cut
BY Stephen, Worker Correspondent.

BY Stephen, Worker correspo ndent.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, May S.-one
mine after another is being closed
down by the Pittsburgh Coal Co. in an
effort to bring down the wages of the
miners. total of % out of "a mines
owned and operated by this company
in the Pittsburgh district have closed
and the men thrown into the unem-
ployed army within a period Of one
month. II
A few weeks ago the company an
nounced the dismantling of 16 mines
and removal of equipment. Many Of,
these mines are to remain closed for
a year. On April % six additional
mines were closed. At first the com
pany would try to have the men ac-
cept reduction in wages with the
promise of steady work.
The Ancient Lie of More Work.
It circularized numerous letters
among the men telling them what a.
great benefactor it was, but also how
poor it was, and that in their own
interests the men should accept a
wage cut. The trick did not work; the
miners refused to fall for this line Of
bunk. Knowing that the company
was lying when it promised steady
employment, they refused to go to
work in the mines at a reduced wage.
The closing of these mines has
thrown 10000 men out of work forcing
them to seek employment either in
other fields or other industries. Many
miners just drift from state to state
without any sign of getting a job and
finally return to find that their credit
in the stores meanwhile has been cut
of. Others go to the steel mills look
ing for jobs. There they hire skilled
workers for so cents an hour and COM
mon labor for 40 cents, and even at
this cheap wage not very many sue
coed in getting work. In fact the steel
mills are now blowing out their
furnaces.
Wide Unemployment.
The balance Of the "a mines are
now only working part time, one, two,
at the most three days week. Miners
coming to the Pittsburgh district look
ing for work are either turned away
or given work for few days and later
fred.
The mines owned by other com.
panies in this district do not work
very much better. Many of them are
closed altogether or working part
time.
Union Officials Indifferent
This entire problem does not seem
to concern the miners union officials,
who are too busy at the present time
expelling reds and progressives from
the organization. To the rank and
file miners, however, and the work
ing class as a whole it is becoming a
real problem demanding a solution.
