itself in an admission that class
collaboration cannot eliminate indus
trial crises.
XLTE come now to a series of pro-
W nouncements which probably have
caused more comment than any other
part of the proceedings at Atlantic
City-the widely heralded new wage
policy" of the A. F. Of l.. As finally
adopted by the convention it reads
as follows:
We commend endorsement Of the
statement of the executive council
on wages. We hold that the best
interests Of wage-earners, AS WELL
AS THE WHOLE SOCIAL GROUP,
are served, Increasing production
in quality as we'll as quantity, by
high wage standards, which assure
sustained purchasing power to the
workers and therefore higher ma
tionaI standards for the environ
ment in which they live and the
means to enjoy cultured opportuni-
ties. We declare that wage reduc-
tions produce Industrial and social
unrest and THAT LOW WAGES
ARE NOT CONDUCIVE TO LOW
PRODUCTION COSTS.
We urge upon wage earners
everywhere:
THAT WE OPPOSE ALL WAGE
REDUCTIONS, AND THAT WE
URGE UPON MANAGEMENT THE
ELIMINATION OF WASTE IN
PRODUCTION IN ORDER THAT
SELLING PRICES MAY BE
LOWER AND WAGES HIGHER.
To this end we recommend cooper
tion in study Of waste in produce
ton, which the assay Of the FEEDER

the satisfaction expressed in the
principle Of the Baltimore and Ohio
development and recommend the
pamphlet Management Co
operation BY 3. NJ. Jewell and o.
S. Boyer, Jr to the study and con-
sideration Of all tras.e unionists.
We also approve the recommend
ations that our national headquart-
ers keep in touch with technical
experts and engineers in order that
the experience of management
cooperation with trade unions may
be put at the service Of all concern
ed with production problems.
The "B. and O." plan is now part
of the A. F. of L. bible. The endorse
ment of this practical application OF
the anti-class struggle education spon.
sored by the of1icialdom is extremely
interesting in view of the slight re
servation in the opening paragraph
above:
Efforts to improve production
methods and eliminate waste must
be accompanied by REASONABLE
assurance of regularity of employ
ment. Emphasis mine.-W. r. d.

schemes.

essity for great struggles of the work
ers, such as the huge mergers in
steel, COAL railways and automobile
manufacture, the extension of the
control of finance-capital over indus

colonial and semi-colonial regions
these revolutionary factors are ignor-
ed because they do not square with

duetion is a group undertaking. It in

Rockefeller, Weyrhauser, Robert
Dollar-are going to work together in

mechanics and unskilled laborers.
The obvious fact that the captains
of industry can get all the coopera-
ton they need at any time by the
simple process of shutting down part
of their plants and thereby increasing
the competition among their assist
ants" is something that the statistical
advisers of the labor movement have
not dwet upon at any length.
DUT regardless of the merits of the
y question the Atlantic City con-
vention unanimously endorsed the re-
port of the committee on the exec
utive councils report which said in
part: n
Efforts to improve production
methods and eliminate waste must
DC accompanied by reasonable as
surance Of regularity OF employ
ment.
We recommend endorsement Of

and that this necessary agency may
be taken into consideration in the
development of policies and not
have to contest for a place after
conclusions are formulated. TRADE
UNIONS, WHICH REPRESENT
THE cUMULATED EXPERIENCE
OF MANY WORKERS AND MANY
YEARS HAVE A MOST IMPORT
ANT CONTRIBUTION TO MAKE
TO THIS DEVELOPING FIELD.
Here is the theory of the role OF
the trade union as one Of the produc-
tive units Of the modern industrial
systematic other two being capital
and Management stated ac-
cording to the gospel of Spencer Mil
Ter, Jr.
THE premise with which the A. F.
! of l.. bureaucrats and their statisti-
cal advisers begin is that modern ma
chinery makes industry more produc-
tive-more and more commodities are
turned out with less workers.
The conclusions they draw is THAT
THE ORGANIZED WAGE FARMERS
SHOULD AID THIS DEVELOPMENT
but not struggle to seize the produc-
tive machinery and the state power
This amounts to complete abandon
ment of struggle. The theory is that
only those unions which can prove
their value to the capitalists as speed
ers-up of production will survive.

Lack OF imagination Is respon
sible for most failures in the

who is producing THE Viennese
Medley" for First National.
Acting" declares the producer
scenarist, requires as much
imagination as writing, directing,
painting any other creative
work.
Most persons-and mean just
that-who seek fame and fortune
by way Of the films, believe that
all that is required is pretty
face and the figure of clothes
horse, or handsome face and the
physique of Adonis.
THE fault / have to find with
the majority of screen players
with whom 1 have come in con-
tact during my experience is that
they leave the creation of their
roles to their director.
This applies to those on the
stage as well as those who darI
about the gray shadows of the
silver screen. In addition, they
lack, I find, qualities which can
only be found in those who have
keen observation.
my advice to embryonic screen
players is, simply this: First, read
good literature; study the masters
of rhetoric-this will exercise your
your Imagination.
Second. develop your power of
observation; watch people and
study human nature. Question
the reasons for actions and mo-
tives of activities of individuals.
This accomplished, combine OBJ
Fervation with imagination, add
a dash of personality, mix thor
oughly with ambition and stick-to-

This is the first time since
the war that a stock company
has actually negotiated a sum-
mer run. From May to Septem-
Der certainly embraces an en-
tire summer. Many have started
with sanguine hopes and deter
mined mien but for various
reasons, they were unable to
cope with that theater evil that
Alex Woollcott calls "the last
rows of summer" namely va
cant chairs.
Director Clifford Brooke was
not so hopeful, as the earnest
Mr.. Cochran and his equally
earnest partner, Mr.. Jacobson.
And so, earlier in the season
when Anne Nichols mentioned
to DIR. Brooke that nothing
would delight her more than to
have him direct her forthcoming
new play, Puppy Love- Mr..
Brooke said he would be avail
able about the first of August.
This week he had to request
Miss Nichols indulgence for an
other month.
No horoscope is needed to de-
tect the factors which have pro-
NOTED this organization to that
level, hallowed in the hearts of
the middle-aged, by Izetta Jewell
and her cohorts at Polls. The
abnormal heat wave may be said
to have been somewhat offset
by the reputation of the Ma
tional as a theater. Identified
always as a house whose attrac-
tons were in keeping, as far as
human talents could make them,
with the repute of its ownership
and management for integrity,
the stock enterprise at once was
elevated to superior levels and
it can be said that in all its
other departments of acting,
promotion and presentation, it
has fallen not one notch below
the lofty character that its 10
cation lent it at the start.
No one can deny that every
individual in the troupe is an
actor. No one can deny that
Clifford Brooke is an able d.
rector. And no one can, or will,
deny that the National Players
have given Washington exactly
what it wanted in the nature of
entertainment and gave that en-
tertainment with professional
completeness that makes me,
for one, regret that we can't
have them with US the year
round.

Only few weeks before it had
been common for ten or fifteen
or twenty prisoners to be locked
in their cells awaiting their turn
for punishment, the dark cells
not being OF sufficient number
to take care Of all those sentenced
to the them day after day.
Yet during those first twenty
four days of December the prison
ers' court heard and decided
thfrty-three cases of minor v1o-
lation of rules. Sixteen Of these
were charges preferred by prison
ers against prisoners, seventeen
were charges preferred by Of
ficers. In five cases those
charged pleaded guilty. Three
cases were dismissed and three
verdicts of not guilty were rem
dered.
Lower Court Sustained
In twenty-five cases prisoners
were found guilty by their own
court. Appeals to the number
of seven had been made from
the decision Of the lower court,
five by prisoners and two by
officers. The court of appeals
sustained the lower court in all
but one case. when 1t was agreed
with the appealing officer that
the lower court had been too
lenient. The jurisdiction Of the
prisoners court covered all in
fractions of prison rules, includ.
ing assaults and attempted es-
capes.
This innovation in prison man
agement attracted much attention.
