CELEBRATE 10Th
ANNIVE AIRY,
CENTRAL OPERA
Hold Communist Party
Rally Sept. 81

New York militants, workers in
the needle trades, shoe factories,
food industry, Negro workers and
women workers, will celebrate the
10th anniversary of the organiza-
ton of the Communist Party, at a
mass meeting to be held on Friday
night, Sept. 81, at the Central Opera
House, 9th st. and 3rd Ave, This
will also be the first city election
rally where workers will greet the
Communist Standard bearers in the
municipal elections.
In statement issued by the New
York Campaign Committee of the
Communist Party workers are call
ed upon to mobilize in masses for re-
sistance against the brutal merciless
attacks of the capitalist class and
the capitalist state, and to demon
strate their readiness to organize
for an aggressive struggle against
naturalization, imperialist war and
fascist terror by rallying in masses
to the support of the Communist
Party, the only Party Of the work
ing class leading them in their
battles.
September, 1929, which marks the
10th anniversary of the birth of the
Communist Party, continues the
statement, finds the workers of New
York as we'll as throughout the en-
tire country engaged in ever sharp
er battles, not alone with the bosses
but directly against the state power,
against the deadly speed-up, the at
tscks upon the wages and working
conditions, the assaults upon milit-
ant union organizations, the reign
of fascist terror.
The Communist Party is playing
a leading role in guiding and direct
ing the working class in their class
struggles. New York workers es-
pecially who have been victims of
naturalization, of fascist terror, in
which they have found united the
forces of the capitalist political par
ties, the Republicans and Democrats,
the capitalist city and state govern
ment apparatus, the Socialists, the
bosses and landlords, have found in
the Communist Party their cham
pion and leader
The celebration at the Central
Opera House on September 9th,
will be a signal for an intensive
drive to win the militant elements
of the city for the Communist pro-
gram and the Communist ticket in
the municipal elections.
Prominent speakers will address
the meeting including William
Weinstein, candidate for Mayor,
Harry NJ Wicks, candidate for
president, Board of Aldermen, Otto
Hall, candidate for city Comptroller,
]. Louis Engdahl, candidate for
president, borough of Manhattan
and others.

Laugh with Moscow at the
Film Guild Cinema This Week

TT'S not as funny as Charlie Chap
4 lin or even Harold Lloyd, but
when Moscow Laughs" the audi
ence at the Film Guild Cinema this,
week laughs heartily with it.
This latest Soviet comedy, SUBJ
titled "The Girl with the Bandbox"
neatly fills out the bill at the Film
Guild this week (and next), the fea-
ture presentation being "The Man
With the Camera" which was re-
viewed in this column yesterday.
The famous Soviet comedy team,
the observation-disclosures Anna
Stem, and Kowal-Samborski provide
the majority of the laughs. Stem is
the young miliner Natasha, and Ko-
wal Samborski-the country lad
coming to the city to try his for
tunes. Natasha's soft-heartedness
gets the better of her, and when,
after series of farcical situations
at a railroad station she learns that
Ilya, the country lad, cannot find
any rooms, she gives him her room
located behind the millinery shop to
which she sells the product of her
labor.
The villainous designs of the cou-
pie owning the millinery shop
against the girl and the final tri-
umph of Natasha and Ilya are the
weave of which the comedy is made.
Plenty of laughs, no Hollywoodish

Organizations Preparing for

at Affair; Honor Roll Grows

Only two weeks are left till the
doors of the immense Madison
Square Garden will be opened for
the four day bazaar of the Daily
Worker and Morning Freiheit, at
which thousands of workers will buy
all their necessities at very low
prices, while enjoying good pro-
grams, dancing, etc.
The Red Press Guards Honor Roll
is occupying an important and i'm
posing place in the Bazaar Journal,
and enrolment is going on in all
trade unions, clubs, benefit societies,
etc. Many workers are taking the
recruiting certificates with them
into their shops and are successfully
enrolling their fellow workers at the
bench. Those workers whose organ
izations did not as yet get the Honor
Roll certificates should Immediately
get in touch with the Bazaar Com
mittee and get supply for their
organization.
At the same time we are getting
report after report from organiza-
tions which have undertaken to or
ganize the booths. The latest re-
port is from the Japanese and
Chinese workers. Two oriental
booths with a great selection of
Oriental art such as hand carved
ivory, Japanese carvings, cigarette
holders. hand-painted kimonos, fans,
etc., will be their contribution to the
Bazaar. Besides the booths they
will have a first rate Oriental
restaurant with Chinese dishes, chop
suey, chow mein, rich Chinese tea
and others, all prepared by expert
cooks.
Other booths will include dresses,
coats, shirts, jewelry, mems clothing,

The most important thing to re-
member right now is the sale of
tickets. Most of the organizations
have taken bundles of tickets. 1t
is the duty of every comrade, reader
and supporter of our press, to make
sure that these tickets are spread
end sold in larger numbers than
ever before. Organizations that did
not as yet get tickets, must get r.

GENEVA, September 23.-The League
OF Nations Assembly moved on toward
adjournment at such q pace today that
1t drew rebukes from the delegations Of
Great Britain, Canada and Norway.
The rushing Of the Assembly's work
during the last few days of the session
has become q scandal. Lord Cecil told
the disarmament committee, while Sir
George Foster condemned the "haste to
get home-or other places. - He had
heard criticism from countries south. of
Canada, Sir George asserted, that
when the big lights Of the Assembly
had been extinguished or removed and
the real work of the League in COM
mittees is begun, there is tendency
to reach for hats and scurry away"
Moves to SIacken Pace.
DR.. Lange of Norway insisted that
the three items under consideration
today by the committee Should rot be
considered, as proposed, in a plenary
session this afternoon, and this move
for retarding the pace OF the proceed
ings was adopted.
The disarmament committee voted to
instruct the secretary general to take
steps for providing a radio telegraphic
station for the use Of the League and
under League control This station would
be equipped with facilities for COM
munication with all countries Of the
world.
Considers Arms Report.
The committee then considered its
final report on its attitude to the work
of the preparatory disarmament COM
mission as represented in the COM
promise proposal adopted Saturday.
This settlement of the conflicting
British and French views urges the
preparatory commission to pursue. its
work as soon as possible toward franz
ing a preliminary draft convention for
the reduction and limitation of arma-
ments on land, sea and air. The COM
mittee concluded its work for the day
by adopting a report embodying the
french and British compromise re-
garding the program Of the preparatory
commission.
