The first showing of "The Break
Up" (Razlom) by Mejrabpomfilm is
running at Eighth Street Playhouse.
Here is a picture in the tradition of
Potemkin, with Narakov and Glad
kov taking prominent parts. 1t is
directed by zamkovoy and photo
graphy was handled by Alexeyev.
The picture is excellently finished.
The usual high standard of photo
graphy in Soviet films has nothing
to suffer from in this picture. The
night scenes, particularly are trem-
endously effective.
The time of the story is that least
known period, at least outside of the
U. S. S. r., when the Russian fleet
first responded to the overthrow of
Nicholas, and then prepared for the
BolShevik revolution In the army
it was a period of struggle between
the old commanders and the increas-
ingly powerful soldiers committees in
each military unit. The picture shows
the same progress going on in the
navy. 1t shows the common sailors
taking charge of things. 1t shows the
fleet hailing the downfall of the Gar,
which the higher command at Kron-
stadt naval base tried to keep secret
as long as possible. Even the ex-
tremely reactionary staff officers
came over to Kerensky, at least
nominally. Only one of the officers
shown in this film, out. of a dozen,
f-,lowed, he did not lead, the drive
towards revolution. That was the
captain of the cruiser Zarya. His
own boatswain, his second in COM
mand and the staff officers at Kron-
stadt, form conspiracy to blow up
the cruiser when they saw it going
Bolshevik. They do this after a
member of the provisional govern
ment," apparently Kerensky, address
ses them argues with them. and is
practically kicked off the ship.

MILITANTS CALL
WELSH MINERS TO
JOIN BIG STRIKE
Reactionaries Try to
Stop Scotch Strike
(Inprecorr CabIe.)

LONDON, England, Nov 30.-The
Scottish miners have called strike
of their $4,000 members, to start to-
morrow. The trade union bureau
Gratis are fighting hard to have the
strike called off or postponed. The
Welsh miners reformist leaders have
accepted the conditions offered them
and announce that there will be no
strike, but the revolutionary opposi-
ton calls strike for Monday and
its influence is so great that par
tial strike in Wales is considered
practically certain.
The Scottish mine owners insisted
that the eight-hour day continue
temporarily, whereupon negotiations
broke down. The Scottish reformist
union leaders were forced to an
nounee the strike call for Monday
following the morning shift.
The revolutionary United Miners
issued strike call against wage-cuts,
against the "spreadover," for repudia-
ton of the Cancellation machinery and
for formation of rank and file strike
committees at all pits with the re-
formist leaders exelud ID.
The owners demand eight hours
work with a daily wage of 7 shillings,
9 pence ($186) or seven and half
hours work with wage of 7 .shillings
($1.68).
The government is maneuvering
through the wageboard, to enforce
the owners terms, and the reformists
arepretendingto fight in order to Sc
cure leadershipfor a speedy betrayal
Fight SeH-Out In Wales.
In South Walesthe reformists have
accepted the owners terms for a tenn
porary continuation of the hours
agreement, under protest" They
did this although one-third of the
delegates voted down the executives
recommendation.
The opposition here has therefore
issued its own strike call in South
Wales.

High Pressure Boost

"THE BREAK UP" NEW SOVIET
/ FILM, TELLS OF NAVAL REVOLT

CHS daughter is the wife of one of
them), as cover for their schemes,
which casts considerable discredit on
him before everything is Strengthened
up.
The romantic interest is supplied
by the unusually dumb younger
daughter of the captain who vamps
the secret from one of the plotters,
and then is discovered taking her
way blithely to the house top to
watch the ship blow up!
The picture is said to have been
given an OK. by the assemblies of
Red Army and Navy men to whom it
was shown in the Soviet Union. One
of the points it makes is the revolt
against the Cars brutal discipline,
the period of disorder when there was
no discipline, and finally the estab-
lishment of an altogether different,
rank and file discipline which made
the ship an efficient fighting machine
for the working class.
An echo of forgotten period is in
even the last scene, when the sailors,
the real commanders, turn to the
captain and tell him to Give the
necessary orders" to send the ship
into the october revolution. Now
there are Red commanders for that
purpose. When the new crop of Rec
managers and engineers grows up
there won't be the chance any longer
for such sabotage plots as are being
exposed at present in Moscow.

killed; Lon Swindle and Louis Nc
Mahan.
This is the second deadly large
scale mine accident within five weeks
in this state, and the nineteenth
within the history of mining in this
state. The death list now includes
sos names in major disasters, to say
nothing of the regular weekly killing
of individual miners by rock fall,
premature blast, electrocution, etc.
There has been a great speeding Up
of mine accidents all over the fields
since the practical open shop condi-
tons were instituted after the be-
trayal of the miners strike by Lewis
and Fishwick. The only force
struggling directly for safety of min
ers underground is the Mine, Oil and
Smelter Workers Industrial Union.

INJUNCTION FIGHTERS
OUT OF JAIL; MILITANT

NEW YORK-Two workers sem
fenced to three years for their &C
tivity in the cafeteria strike have
been released after year and half
in prison. They are Harry Cornelius
and Steve Stevenson, both members
of the Food Workers Industrial
Union.
The union is giving them BAN
quet Tuesday night in Manhattan
Lyceum at 7:30 p. m.
Among other charges against these
two workers was that of violating
the Injunction" Their release just
now when the battle against the in
junction menace is gathering force
in New York is an interesting fact.
Both workers heartily endorse the
Smash the Injunction movement.
They are not intimidated by their
year and half in Jail and declare
for mass violation of the injunctions
as the only way to defeat this strike

by Rodney Gilbert which is a survey
of the attitude of American f1nan-

Treasury Departments recent order
making it possible to declare an en-
barge on Soviet Union products at
a moments notice. He finds one
group much worried over the effect
of such an embargo on the American
industrial crisis, pointing out that
the business world is being kidded
along with the idea that the solution
of the crisis lies in foreign trade.
The only froeign rade which is grow
ing is that with the Soviet Union.
Besides, embargo, undoubtedly by a
cutting off of contracts to purchase
which the Soviet Union is placing in
U. S. would turn thousands more
American workers on the streets and
cripple large U. S. corporations like
the auto and electrical and farm ma
chinery manufacturers severely.

the president did not know, up to
now, that the lynchings were going
on. He seemed to think that when
he does know, he will stop them
that the very force that sponsors and
condones lynchings is going to stop
them.
The president of the local branch
of the League of Struggle for Negro
Rights, j. w. Youngblood, who, with
its secretary, j. w. Dawson, was
present at this meeting, got the floor
and after pointing out the character
of the League of Struggle for Negro

struggle of all Negro organizations
against lynchings and race discrim-
ination, introduced a resolution which
was passed unanimously, but later
ignored by the misleaders in the

Capitalist press accounts of Rep
preventative Hamilton Fish's national
broadcast over the Columbia system
Saturday night show him calling
openly for embargo of all Soviet prod
ucts, and for a federal spy system
against workers organization and
particularly against the Communist
Party.
Fish denounced any attempt to set
up normal diplomatic relations be-
tween U. S. and the Soviet Union.
He repeated the already exploded lie
about Convict labor" in Russia and
conducted himself generally as war
propaganda.
1t is perfectly clear that the Fish
Committee report to congress will de-
mani spy system and terror against
American workers, and embargo, as
a preliminary to war on the Soviet
Union.
Communism Grows
Fish stated that the Communist
vote of over 100000 in less than half
of the states in U. S. in which cap
italist election laws allowed the
Party on the ballot meant that there
were actually about half million
Communists in U. S.
'There is nothing that would have
pleased me more" he said, than to
be able to have honestly stated that
communism in the United States is
on the decline and that there is no
need for Congressional action, such
as granting authority to the Depart
