BERLIN FL|ERS

D. COOLIDGE SIDE
Reception for Chamberlin
and Levine, Foe of New,
Is Touchy Matter.

WASHINGTON, June 14.-As
President Coolidge has extended the
Nations welcome to Lindbergh the
question arises, what will the Gov
ernment do for Chamberlin and
Levine?
The enthusiasm shared by people
here and overseas over Lindbergh's
flight was reflected by the President
and Mrs. Coolidge and they gave a
fitting touch to the national tribute
paid the young f1ier.
But two other Americans also
have flown across the ocean, one as
q pilot flying an even greater dis
tance than Lindbergh did, while the
other went as passenger, the first
man to enjoy such distinction.
AS ambassadors to Germany,
Chamberlin and Levine, according
to dispatches, are creating as much
good will as Lindbergh did in
France, Belgium and England.
Ready for Tribute
When they leave Germany, Aus
tria, Italy, Hungary and Roumania
are waiting to pay tributes.
Central Europe is making as much
as much fuss over Chamberlin and
Levine as other nations did over
A.Lindbergh. The central nationp
Pwere disappointed because Ambas-
sador Houghton hurried Lindbergh
back to the United States before he
had chance to visit them.
The 1avishness of the German re-
ception and that expected in other
countries is a serious problem in
conduct for Coolidge and his asso-
ciates.
Levine is, however, the source of
annoyance to the government, par
ticularly Postmaster General Harry
s. New, big boss of the air mail serv-
ice. He has had row with New
over air mail contracts on which
he was the low bidder, but failed to
land. BEauSe of this, presumably,
the President and other cabinet Of
f1cials ignored Levine in their Of
fetal congratulatory cablegrams.
The allegations against Levine on
which New bases his hostility are
vague, thus far. They relate to con-
tracts for the purchase of salvaged
war; time materials.
Not Satisfied
Not satisfied with this, Postmaster
General New caused to be circulated
widely by some press associations
a report that evine-Chamebrlin
'was ignored in News charges-had
violated the postal regulations by
carrying with him a number of air
mail letters, one of which, New
admitted, the stamps had been
bought and cancelled in the regular
way through Long Island post
master.
His complaint was that Levine
had not gotten authority fl icst from
1.-The Fostoffice Department.
# Official Washington still must
conclude what it will do for Cham
berlin and Levine. They will be
coming home soon and the Govern
ment cannot afford to ignore them.
Chamebrlin is an Iowa man and his
home folks are proud of him. Le-
vine is Jew, and Jews long have
felt that Coolidge has given them
less political recognition than any
other President in the last quarter
century.

BREAKING CHAINS, VIVID RUSSIAN FILM TO BE SHOWN
MARCH II AT NEW STAR CASINO

FOR the Deneflt OF the imprisoned
cloakmakers and furriers, and their
families, Breaking Chains" a great
human picture Of life in Russia after
the revolution, viii be shown on Sun
day, March 81 at the New Star Ca
sino, 10th Street and Park Avenue.
The picture will be under the direct
auspices of the international Workers
aid, which will donate the money to
the defense fund, so Chairman Henry
Robbins announced yesterday.
Vivid Russian Scenes.
Breaking Chains" which has been
shown only twice before in America,
is a thrilling story of events in a
little Russian village after the revolu-
ton. It combines the action of great
masses of people with the story Of
one peasant girls development from
an unthinking careless child, easily
fooled by the dissolute son of a
wealthy family, to a woman of ma
ture understanding. fully aware of
the changes ia Russian society and
longing to be part of the great mass
movement of Communism.
Pictures of the life Of "aristocratic"
expatriates in Paris are interestingly
contrasted with the vigorous, healthy
development Of the loyal Russians. A
high-light Of the drama is an actual
picture of Lenin speaking to a mass
meeting. The news of his death, car
lied from house to house by a rider
on horseback, is one of the most NOV
ing scenes of the play, revealing the
sorrow of simple people over the death
of the great Lenin.
Workers As Actors.
Breaking Chains" is a real pro-
letarian moving picture. All but four
of its large cast are actual working
people. not professional actors trained
in artificiality. The few professionals
used in the making Of the picture
have blended their art into a direct
technique that results in a fine and
moving performance.
Every worker viii want to see this
picture, and the I. w. A. has arranged
for several showings during the after
noon and evening of March 81. It is
expected that at least 10000 people
will view it on that day. Tickets viii
be sold by workers and organizations
and will be fifty cents if bought in
advance. Seventy-five cents will be
charged at the door.
Help the imprisoned cloakmakers
and furriers and see this great Rus
sian picture.
