SENATE Rejects
HOOVER nominee
But N OF for Excuses
Opponents Give

WASHINGTON, May 7. The
Senate today rejected Hoover's nom
nation of Judge John J. Parker to
be Associate Justice of the U. S.
Supreme Court, by vote of Al 20
80, there being II republicans who
joined with the democrats against
Hoover's nominee. This is the first
time in Sc years such a nomination
has been rejected.
The capitalist press PLAYS up this
defeat of Hoover as due to the windy
Opposition" led hy Borah which
featured the Parker upholding of the
yellow Dog contract. aud to
Parller's .anti-Negro sentiments.
While it is true that these items
serve as excuses for the opposition
to Parker, the reasons lie deepac
than these excuses and it would be
completely ridiculous to think that
the U. S. Senators who opposed
Parker are friends Of labor" and
voted against him because they w.
hold the right of workers to organ
ize. They don't. and Borah who led
the Opposition" is known as the
prosecuting attorney who tried to
hing Bill Haywood, Mayer and Pet
tibone and who approved of the mas
sacre of Niearaguan people by Z.
S. marines.
Nor can anyone imagine that the
% democrats who voted against
Parker did so because they didn's
like his anti-Negro prejudice. Most
of these democrats are from the
South, where two Communists, Pow
ers and Carr, are facing trial ana
the electric chair merely for giving
OFT leaflets and speaking to Negro
workers to get them to organize
and not even whisper Of objection
has come from these "demacrats" or
the republicans either.
None of these capitalist politicians
are in favor Of trade unions or Ne.
gro equality. On the contrary their
actions show they oppose both. But
the economic crisis which is produc-
ing intense inner struggles within
the capitalist class clearly is caus-
ing disruption within the republican
party. The United Press dispatch
after long account of the trade union
and Negro issues, admits that these
were not the real reasons, saying:
"The factor that made the fight
close. however, was the refusal Of
many regular republicans to stand
By Hoover"

"Old and New" Another Steb
Towards Film OF the Future

The superiority of the Soviet. film
is evidenced again in the fact that
two of the large film producing
companies of America are making
overtures for the services of S. M.
Eisenstein.
Eisenstein is, of course, the IA
nous Russian director whose "Po-
temkin" and "Ten Days That Shook
the World" revolutionized film MAX
ing and whose new theories on the
sound film threaten the established
procedure.
His latest film, "Old and New"
is now showing at the Cameo The
atre and is still another step to-
ward the film of the future. In this
film he has taken the subject of
collective farming" and by the use
of simple symbols has made this
involved subject easily understand
able.
Eisenstein was born in Riga, Rus
STA, in 1898, and prepared himself
for the profession of engineering.
He studied art along with engineer
ing training. The Revolution inter
rupted his academic training, but
Eisenstein Immediately joined with
his comrades. He was connected
with the engineering corps Of the
Red Army.
After the revolution he joined the
first workers theatre, the Prote-
cult, where he made his first big
success with the direction of Jack
Londons story. "Mexicaia." He
then joined Meyerhold and after diff
fer:ag with him on matters of prin-
ciplc returned to the Protecult, to
assume complete charge.
With Eisenstein the Protecult
took on a new life. His sensational
work with this group placed him
in the front rank of Russian direc-
tors and he was called upon to take
one Of the leading parts in the or
ganization of the Soviet film in
dust1y.

BERLIN, April 8 (I.N.sl.-The
new cabinet Of DR., Heinrich
Bruening won its first fight In
the Reicistag this morning, a
motion Of non-confidence being

The National faction in the
Reichstag decided in caucus this
morning to accept the new cabi.
net, thereby assuring political
peace and giving the government
. chance to effect some of it's
promised relief measures.
The consent of the Nationalist
leader, DR.. Albert Hugenberg, to
throw the voting power Of the
Nationalist group on the side of
DR.. Bruening was given only after
Q bitter fight with members of
his factiof. He finally agreed to
support the new chancellor, but
warned that he was only allow
ing q period Of grace and that if
the agricultural aid promised
was not deemed sufficient, the
Nationalists would overthrow the
government.
The intra-factional argument
arose over requests by the Reichs-
landbund, the agrarian league, of
which DR.. Martin Schiele, the
new minister Of agriculture and
Q Nationalist, is a member, that
the Nationalists support Bruen-
ing in order that he might put
through the needed agrarian re-
HefS. Some of the Nationalist
deputies were willing to do this,
