the unemployed, not Of sympathy,
but to sound the alarm about the ac-
tivities of the "unscrupulous" unem-
ployed.
The workers in the shops, who face
speed-upp and wage slashes, who
have to accept ten, eleven or twelve
hours work instead of the eight they
may have had short time ago-who
accept this condition because they
inust--they too are beginning to look
to the DAILY WORKER as the ex-
ponent Of their problems and no long
er fear the word Communist"
The situation is ripe for the drive
for members and for readers Of the
DAILY WORKER. The objective
conditions, the subjective factors, the
wantonness the government in fur
nishing injunctions, using troops, etc.,
have opened the eyes of the workers.
We must take advantage of this sit
uation, not for the allegedly selfish
purpose of building up the Party, but
in order that the working class may
have the leadership that will lead it
in the present difficult situation--a
situation that will become more diff
cult and be coupled with greater
struggle as American imperialism
becomes more ruthless.
Only a strong Communist Party
and powerful Communist press can
help the workers in the present stu
alton. We must build them up-the
war danger, the attacks on the work
crs, the assaults on the union demand
united action and strengthening of
our Party and of the Party press.

RUSSIAN MOVIES ARE
POPULAR IN GERMANY

NURING the recent visit to Berlin of
~ the Soviet Commissioner for Fine
Arts, M. Lunacharsky, Russo Ger
man film company was founded which
will incorporate the productions of
hat fine Russian company, the Sow
Sino, which functions throughout the
u. S. S. r. Lunacharsky himself will
adapt some of his plays for the Berlin
productions. More and more Russian
films are being shown in Germany.
r ''Bed and Sofa," a Partisan three-cor-
nered theme, translated into the at
mosphere of the Soviet peasantry, and
"The Waiter at the Palace Hotel"
with magnificent scenes of pre-war
restaurant life above and below stairs,
are two of the best and most subtle
of these.
The growing import of Russian
films to Germany has led to an inter-
esting development. The value of Rus
sian pictures has been seen by the
millionaire newspaper owner, Herr
Hugenberg, who is principal owner of
the big Ufa movie establishments.
The German press has been going
out of its way to praise the newest of
The Sowkino film, "Ivan the Terrible"
Feodor Chaliapin made freqent visits
TO the cinema to see his confrere Leo
nidoff Of the Moscow Art Players who
is playing the role of the mad Gar.
Madame Lunacharsky, wife of the
Soviet Commissioner for Education,
who was well-known actress before
her marriage, is in Berlin at the pres
ent moment taking the principal part
in three forthcoming German films.
One of these, carpenter and Chan
cellor," has been adapted from her
husbands play of the same name. The
others are "Vera Mirzewa" and "The
Chalk Circle" the German version of
Chinese legend, which was one of
Reinhardt's great successes at the
Deutsches Theater. The director of
oil three is Rudolf Meinert, who has
overcome the difficulties of giving
European actors and actresses a
Chinese physiognomy by changing the
setting to Samarkland. This, he de-
clares, is still sufficiently unknown to
Westerners to make an admirably
Oriental film setting.

and have led them In demonstrations
for their relief.
In the fight against injunctions
against speed-up and wage reductions
it is the Communists who take the
lead. Basil Manly deplores this fact;
well, we would recommend that Basil
Manly aim his guns against the EN-.
ployers, and advise them to pay theil
workers decent wages and grant then
decent conditions, and not oppose
their joining unions and fighting fol-
conditions yhen they are not granted
Then Basil Manly, the socialists and
other reformers will have achieved
paradise.
But the employers cannot and will
rot grant these conditions to the
workers eor we are in an era of i'm
perialisn which implies extreme ex-
ploitation of the workers. Therefore
the workers must fight-and the
Communists will lead them, for that
is the function of the Communist
Party.
DAILY WORKER the Weapon.
What has helped the Communist
Party in this fight?
Unquestionably the DAILY WORK
ER has been a most effective weapon
not only because the DAILY
WORKER today more nearly meets
the needs of the American working
class than ever before, but also be-
cause the workers are hungry for an
crgan which reflects their wishes,
even thought in some cases it may
be hazy, unconscious wish.
The DAILY WORKER and the Ian
gusge organs Of the Party are doing
militant work among the miners. The
miners wait eagerly for the bundles
as they arrive each morning. Not
long ago they would not look at it
or glance at the cartoons and pic
lures and then throw it aside. Today
they read it from front to back and
then pass it to the next fellow who
was not lucky in getting fresh copy.
The DAILY WORKER has become the
expression of the miners who are In
death struggle to save their union.
and they regard it as their only ex-
pression--as against the "official''
nonsense which fills the columns of
the Mine Workers Journal.
This applies in equal measure to
the unemployed, who know that the
capitalist press makes noise about

"Mrs. Danes Defense"
Revived by All Star
Cast at Cosmopolitan

HENRY ARTHUR JONES' "Mrs
II Danes Defense" now playing at
the Cosmopolitan Theatre as the first
revival of a series to be presented by
Chamberlin Brown is important to
the extent of showing US the so-called
moral code of the British aristocracy.
This it does fairly well, pointing out
how the ethics of capitalism is used
to preserve" the adopted son of Sir
Daniel Carteret from marrying the
woman he loves--Mrs. Dane.
The plot in nutshell concerns Mrs.
Dane, who, because she had given
birth to an illegitimate child five
years previous, is prevented from
marrying the man she desires.
The acting is much superior to the
play, first presented in Nea York 27
years ago with a cast headed by Mar
garet Anglin, the first step in her
long and successful career.
In the present production the lead
ing role is portrayed by Violet Hem
ing, who does her utmost with the
dusty story. The supporting cast is
on an equal high plane including
Robert Warwick, Alison Skipworth
and Conway Wingfield.
While the play was considered
risque in 1901, it will not even cause
a ripple on Broadway today. 1t is
scheduled to play for two weeks and
be followed by other successes of a
quarter of century ago.
The present production is staged
oy Clifford Brooke.

is the situation favorable for the
l DAILY WORKER and for re-
cruiting members for the Communist
Party?
One need mention only the follow
ing factors to recognize that the stu
alton for the Party, although diff.
cult, effectively is very favorable
Only few days ago, Basil Manly
accused the Communists of taking
advantage of the mining situation to
stir up trouble. 1t is true that if the
sfficialdom of the Miners Union car
ried on the affairs of the union in the
proper manner--but putting up fight
TO save the union--the Communists
would have little ground for work.
Their propaganda in the strike itself
would not meet with the response
that it meets with. But the failure
and treachery of the officials, begin
ming with Lewis and ending with the
local officialdom, have been so open
and brutal that the miners are dis
satisfied.
What the Communists have told
them has proven correct-so much
the worse for Basil Manly and the
other so-called reformers and pro-
gressives. The Communists declared
years ago that Lewis was mislead-
ing the miners and was selling them
out-but the miners did not believe.
Now they not only believe it, but see
il with their own eyes.
Shall the Communists not come be-
fore the workers and not only tell
them the truth but also lead them out
of the morass into which Lewis and
his gang have plunged them? Or
should they, to please the reformers
and liberals, leave the miners with
out leadership, to be led back into
another slaughter?
Just as several years ago, the Com
munists pointed out the sore spots
and offered the only remedy for the
situation in the Miners Union, SO
too today they have the only program
for the miners-struggle for reten-
ton Of the Jacksonville agreement
custing of Lewis and his henchmen
violation Of the injunctions and gen.
ernl militant action to save and build
up the union.
Is this the correct program?
1t is-and the miners are recogniz-
ing it.
Today the Communists can speak
to the miners openly and freely. To.
dsy their speeches meet with the
ready support Of the miners--for the
miners recognize their correctness
Let Basil Manly bemoan the fact
the Communist Party is a party Of
struggle, and when the workers de.
eide to struggle they will willingly
accept the leadership of the Commu.
Iiists.

For few moments the staccato clatter of the

and to come to attention. listening to the prolonged
and dominant note. When the world filling sound
ceases and the noise Of traffic becomes audible again
somebody says, Steamboat whistle" The barge
towboat is in.
Chances are that the steamboat whistle awakens
| many memories among those who reached by its
strong and penetrating bast-memories of lazy sum-
mer days, of the river and the boats which made it
lively highway in the past From the shade of a tree
atop bluff giving view far up and down the stream,
the boats could be pushing RATS of logs south
ward. coming and going with passengers and freight.
Many small boys Of yesterday, watching the meander-
ing courses along the winding channel Of the stream
took their first lessons about the velocity of sound
while contemplating the time elapsng between the
first upward burst Of steam from the distant whistle
| and the arrival Of note At the expectant ear.
The steamboat whistle bursts now upon noisy and
forgetful world like commanding voice from q dim,
romantic past So it is. But there is also in its
persmptory signal . note of revived vitality and
power The day Of busy traffic of steamers, carrying
passengers and pushing logs, is gone. phase Of
river traffic, with Of great barges loaded with
immense cargoes Of bulk freight, is dawning. So &C.

and also of the future, again is heard
