AFRICA SPEAKS" AT CAMEO
DRAMATIC FILM OF JUNGLE LIFE

Thrilling and rare entertainment
occupies the screen of the Cameo
Theatre this week where Africa
Speaks" an African adventure film,
sound effects and all, is playing. This
film, released by Columbia Pictures.
depicts the absorbing adventures of
Paul L. Hoefer, Colorado explorer,
on daring trip through the hitherto
UNEMPLOYED regions Of the dark con-
tinent. From a scenic standpoint,
1t is magnificent, while the intimate
glimpses of native life are fascinat-
ing from a news value, The film
was transferred to the Cameo after
the two weeks run at the Globe
Theatre.
Hoefer and his band managed to
penetrate into the deepest jungies
of the big continent. Many of the
little known type of native is shown
from the giant Wasara of the
French Congo to the pygmies of the
Ituri forest, who seldom reach a
height of fifty-seven inches. Rites
and tribal dances of these natives
are among the features of the pro-
duction. Many of their customs,
heretofore a mystery, are revealed.
Picture shots of lions, elephants and
other jungle beasts are taken at
amazingly close range. Particularly
effective are photographs Of Nasal
spearmen in hand-to-hand combat
with huge lions. The disk dipped
Ubangi natives are shown in their
native habitat.

LID. Wins DELAY
In ATLANTACASE
Calls Demonstrations for
October Il

NEW YORK, Oct. AFTER a tre-
mendous struggle to get the Atlanta
instruction" trials out of the pres
ent atmosphere of lynching which
the bosses deliberately created as the
time for the trials neared, the In
ternational Labor Defense yesterday
announced that a postponement had
been secured for three or four weeks.
j. Louis Engdahl, national secre-
tary of the LID, said the postpone
ment would be used to rally the en-
tire working class for the defense
OF the Atlanta defendants and to the
struggle against lynchinE.
October p has been designated as
a day of country wide demonstra-
tiens against lynching and for the
unconditional release of the Atlanta
six
LID organizers are being sent on
tour in an intensive campaign to
rouse the working class to the mem
ace of the Atlanta attack. Ann Bur-
lax, one of the defendants, will leave
tomorrow for Boston and Connecti-
cut. Joe Carr, another defendant, is
already in Ohio. Stephen Graham,
defendant in the Norfolk, Va. Gin
surrection" case, has already left for
Virginia to tour that state on behalf
of the Atlanta defendants.
Over 1900 A. F. of l.. locals are
being acquainted with the signifi-
canoe of the Atlanta "insurrectienr
charges. Many of these have re-
sponded with contributions, thereby
repudiating the treacherous col
liberation of the A. f. of l.. leader
ship with the Atlanta bosses. Hun
dreds of thousands of leaflets are
being printed. Speakers are being
routed to organizations. Special eff
forts are being made to rally the
Negro organizations to the defense
of the Atlanta defendants, and for
the struggle against lynching. In
the meantime, the LID is energeti-
cally supporting the national anti
lynching week called by the Ameri-
can Negro Labor Congress for the
week of September 27 to October 8.

A.N.L.C. ORC. HELD
IN S2,500 BAIL
Hit Lynching, Charged with
Sedition

MARION, Ind, Oct. 1.-The perse-
cution and arrest of Negro and white
workers is the frantic reply of des-
perate Ku Klux Khan elements here
to the expose made by a special COM
mittee of the International Labor De-
Tense on the double lynching of two
young Negro workers, Tom Ship
and Abe Smith, by the business ele-
ments of this city.
A. e. Poansjoe, organizer for the
American Negro Labor Congress, is
being held in Jail with bail set at
$4,000 as result of his activity among
the Negro workers in this city.
The Negro churches are working
hand in hand with the bosses for a
conviction of Peansjoe and spreading
a subtle poison amongst the Negro
workers. Speaking before the Bethel
Methodist church, Frank Beckwith,
director of Negro Welfare declared:
IF there is any one thing which has
enabled the American Negro to
occupy an enviable position in the
United States it is his loyalty to his
government. The Communists are
attempting to put over their program
by citing their alleged accomplish
ments in Russia" And then he pro-
ceeded to tell how well off the Ameri-
can Negro is, In closing the story of
the meeting, the capitalist press re-
ported: THE Rev, c. S. Brown, pastor
of the church, and his congregation,
pledged their hearty support in help
ing to spread the gospel of caution"
Meetings are being held by the In
ternational Labor Defense throughout
that district protesting the arrest of
Poansjoe and demanding his release.

THE world presents its population
with the problem of difficulty in

the existing social order to beware

no way for them TO get sustenance
Why should men not attempt some

abolition of capitalism or for some
way to fool the workers, the COM

While the fledgeling capitalists and
their fathers are trying TO terrorize
the jobless, the Communist Party
calls on unemployed and employed to
organize, fight now for immediate
relief, and strike against all wage
cuts.
Despite Pundit Buffers idea that
1t is something new, it isn't. The
