International Con-
ference of Revoln>
tionary Writers
By A. B. MAGIL

CHARKOV, U.S.SR. (By MaiD.-
The Second World Plenum of the In
ternational Bureau of Revolutionary
Literature closed here on Nov. Is
after more than a weeks activity in
which delegates from % countries
and four continents took part.
Struggle against imperialist war
and in defense of the Soviet Union
was the keynote of the Plenum.
Johannes R. Becher, famous German
revolutionary poet who has six in
dictments for high treason against
him, delivered ringing address on
the war danger in which he declared
that treason to their own govern
ments is the only path for the revo-
lutionary writer's of the world.
Greetings were brought to the
Plenum from Hopner for the Com
munist International and Germanetto
for the Red International of Labor
Unions. Chubar, president of the
Ukrainian Soviet Republic, and
Skrypnik, Ukrainian Commissar of
Education, also spoke.
The Plenum adopted a political
platform which marks a great step
forward since the last Plenum in
1927 Instead of demanding of mem
bers merely struggle against i'm
perialist war and fascism, the Inter
national Bureau now raises the addi-
tional demands of defense of the
Soviet Union and fight against social
fascism.
The American delegation was one
of the most prominent at the Plenum
since Germany and the United States
we're declared to be the two most i'm
portant capitalist countries for the
development of a revolutionary pro-
letarian literature. The American
delegation, representing the John
Reed Club, consisted of Fred Ellis,
Michael Gold William Chopper,
Joshua Kunitz, A. B. Magil and
Harry Alan Potamkin Gold and
Magil gave the report for the United
States. They we're also elected to the
Presidium of the International
Bureau and Potamkin to the Control
Commission.
The Plenum unanimously adopted
resolution proposed by the Amer
lean delegation demanding the i'm
mediate release of the six workers
facing the electric chair in Atlanta,
Ga.
A program of activity was outlined
for the United States which includes
the broadening of the John Reed
Club, the establishment of close con-
facts with the workers correspond
ence movement and the strengthen
ing of the New Masses.

'SHARBOR DRIFT"
Working Class Movie That Lacks Revolutionary Point

on the screen, 1.-THE mirage has
passed. This worker belongs in the
revolutionary movement" There is
a brief glimpse of workers demon
strating, and then 1.-THE End" There
you are, left high and dry.
There is no preparation, either in
the titling or the picture itself for
this final fashion. 1t has no or
ganic relation to the rest of the film.
1t is not buns or near-bums like the

into a claSs-conscious, disciplined
fighter is story in itself and one
which the picture should have in
cluded. Otherwise, it lacks convic-
ton.
The theme of "Harbor Drift"-the
attempt of certain unorganized, nom
class conscious workers to escape
from their class position, the impossi-
bility of this, and their consequent
decentralization, is theme which re-
quires the most careful handling, In
order to bring out the revolutionary
lessons. This "Harbor Drift" fails
to do AS it stands, the picture
smacks too much of "Ie did it for

picture ended and looked at each
other with doubt and amazernent.
Luckily, their disappointment was
changed to enthusiasm when the OPP
orator announced that he was going
to show an additional film, Ten

they knew, would be the real stuff.

Troops, and Its Victories

/ committees, etc. Meanwhile, the Red
Army Committees also send out prop
agandists to distribute leaflets, 10
write slogans on the walls, to keep
order at the mass meetings, to search
for the munitions of the landlords and
the gentry, and to distribute the rice,
furniture, etc, to the poor. The Red
Army participates in these measures
with enthusiasm.
In some places, where the power of
the landlordist gentry is so feared by
the masses that even under the pro-
lection Of the Red Army they dare
rot carry out the expropriating mea-
sures, the Red Army has to take
things for them to their homes. But,
in most cases, the poor peasants al
ways act as guides of the Red Army
and furnish information before in
designations, Many Of them help in
the arrest Of the reactionaries. Wits
the precautionary measures that the
peasants might take advantage of
this for personal revenge. the Red
Army investigates beforehand and
educates, encourages and leads the
peasants in the appropriation Of the
expropriators.
Two days after We arrive at a
place we always hold a monstrous
mass celebration meeting jointly with
the masses. Among other things,
great attention is given to the revo-
lutionary plays which give strong i'm
petus to the Red Army and the broad
masses. The main themes of the
plays center around the suppression
of the workers, peasants and the poor
by the landlords and the militaristS
and the inevitable revolution as the
only way out for the oppressed
When the Red Army leaves a terri
tory for some other place, all articles
borrowed from the owners are re-
turned. Peasants, both young and
old, male and female, never fail to
give the army most sincere send
off. Red flags are displayed like
roses in a spring garden; firecreck-
ers are necessarily broken; tea and
cakes are presented to the depart
ers All show emotions of deep at
tachment
Indeed, in the eyes of the toiling
masses, the red soldiers are their
own men like the men of their
own families. The red soldiers are
their co-workerS and protectors. At
every battle the peasants come to the
aid of the Red Army. Especially
notable we're the cases when we at
tackled Anfu, Funi, Yanchow and
Wing Ho They joined in our ranks
in big numbers, ranging from two
or three thousand to twenty thou
sand, and did all sorts of work with
bravery. This spontaneous help
from the broad masses accounts for
the fact that the Red Army is al
ways victorious even when greatly
outnumbered by its enemies.
During the recent two or three
months the Soviet Governments in
various localities have called big
mass meetings, celebrating the vic
tories of our army. The Soviets also
contribute rice, meat, oil, salt and
other daily necessities to us and have
frequently sent representatives to
look after the wounded and sick SOL
diers. The relationship between the
Red Army and the toiling masses be-
comes closer every day.

first revolutionary upheaval. The
contrast which she draws here, of
workers life under imperialist rule
in Shanghai, and their new free
dom in the Canton Commune,
where the workers had seized
power and set up their own gov
eminent, has particular signi-
ficance at the present time, when
the Chinese workers and peasants
are marching forward to establish
ing Soviet rule throughout China,
and securing permanently the new
freedom temporarily won in Cam
ton in 1926-EditOr
IT IS village along the river near
Shanghai. The Chinese woman
scarcely lifts her head as our for
eign tall figures shadow the doorway
Of her mud hut She is sitting over a
table, and her fingers keep on pasting
blue strips of paper and little thin
pieces of wood. On either side of her
sit two solemn tots of three and
four years old, their legs dangling
above the ground, their fingers
quickly taking the pasted blue strips
Of paper and the little pieces of wood
from their mother, bending them
over another little piece of wood, and
tossing the finished product into a
bushel basket. Match boxes! Is it
a nursery school for the making OF
match boxes? Can such little people
paste so quickly? We stand and
watch the pile grow.
How much do they get for the

but they do know that if the family
trio work all day-oh, long day
they earn twenty cents, Mexican.
Twenty cents, Mex. Ten cents gold.
