Columnists in Vaudeville.

THE latest occupation of a news col
umnist seems to be vaudeville. A
week or SO ago Haywood Broun ap-
peared at the Palace Theater in New
York as a headliner And now that
theater announces that it will have
Walter Winchell as thespian luminary
for the week of June %.
Those who remember back a bit will
mayhap remember that Mr.. Winchell
has been on the vaudeville circuit be-
fore in a song-and-dance act. Never,
however, has he appeared as a maestro
of wit and genial chaff.
Vaudeville perhaps may provide q
happier medium for expression some
times.

PALACE-"The FiorOdora Girl"
"THE Florodora Girl" featuring Ma
rion Davies. will bring TO Loew's
Palace Theater this week q story of
"the gay COS" about which much has
been written in recent years without
really informing the modern generation
Of the interesting period Of America
about thirty-odd years ago.
OF course the story is written around
a member of 1.-The famous Florodora
Sextet," and imperishable institution,
around which more romance has CEN
tered than perhaps any other American
creation, certainly any American crea-
tionS Of the theater, which seems TO be
sinking into innocuous deSuetude faster
than the sextet.
IN the present instance Daisy, a
member Of the sextet, falls in love with
Jack Wharf, a New York clubman and
racing enthusiast, whose mother informs
Daisy that their only hope from the
ruin that stares him and the family In
the face Is q marriage TO a society
heiress. Daisy thereupon loosens her
hold upon Jack, who doesn't marry the
heiress, however, but instead makes a
fortune in the "horseless carriage" bus
mess, whereupon Jack and his mother
chase after Daisy and find her doing
a great dance in the theater. OF course
everything ends happily.

Fox Theater in his second Fox
Movietone production, 80 This Is Lon

laughable experiences in trying to ad-
Just himself to the way Britishers do
things and to convince them that the

irene Rich, who portrays the very un-
oerstandtng wife, as in Rogers first
talking picture, and Maureen O'Sulli-
van, who came from ireland for the
John Mccormick picture and was SO
good she was given q long-term con-
tract by the Fox executives. Others
included are Frank Albertson, Lumsden
Hare and Mary Forbes. The dialogue
was written by Owen Davis, sr., dean of
American playwrightS and a close friend
OF VIII Rogers. The picture was direct
ed by John Blystone.

Resolution of Central Committee, Communist
~ Party of U. S. A.
THE Political Bureau of fthe &C cPUsA, tax
ing note of the appearance of an opposition
IN the CPSU, directed against the Party and its
Central Committee, comprised of the right frac-
ton of Comrade Syrtzov, and the semi Trotsky-
list fraction headed by Comrade Lominadze,
opposition bloc which has been condemned by
the leading organs of the CPSU, reclares It's
combination of the opposition factionalists
who wish to disturb the unity of the Party in
the moment when the working class of the So
Wet Union, under the leadership of the Party
and its feminist Central Committee, is success
fully overcoming the difficulties of Socialist
Construction, iquidating the remnants of the
class enemy within the Soviet Union and at
moment of intensified imperalist preparations
for war against the Soviet Union.
The political content of the line of the Syrtzov-
Lominadze group is to discredt the main slogans
of the Party for the rapid tempo of industrialza-
tion, for socialist transformation of agriculture,
for the liquidation of the kulaks as a class, and
specializing upon the difficulties of the present
period, it repeats the Trotskyist and right OPP
portunist ISLANDERS This grouping upon one plat
form of right and cleft" oppostionists is another
of the many unprincipled attempts for joint
struggle against the correct bolshevist line by the
right opportunists together with the Trotskyists
and semi Trotskyists which is an international
phenomenon. 1t is of the same nature as the
bloc of the Lovestone and Cannon groups in the
u s. for Joint struggle against the CPUSA.
The fact that such right-leftist blocs are al
ways formed upon the slogans of the right OPP
portunists is further proof Of the correctness
OF the Comintern statement that the right dam
ger is the main danger in the Party. The I'M
principled attempts Of the Lominadze group to
develop the struggle Under cover Of formal
ceptance of the G. G. line, only further exposes
its essentially opportunist character.
The Political Bureau of the c, G. of the
CPUSA notes the statement of Comrade Buch-
arm OF November 10Th and the decision Of the
&C CPSU on this statement of November 21st.
The fact that Comrade Bukharin after long
months Of silence has repudiated his main errors,
including decisive condemnation of the Love-
stone group in the U. s. A. as IAN anti-Com-
munist and anti-proletarian group" is further
proof Of the correctness Of the line of the Com
intern and the &C CPSU, which correctness is
clearly established before the entire revolution

MulroOney Becomes Pathetic

mo one but policeman can comprehend the
feeling of shame and humiliation which has
stirred the minds of the 10000 men of the force
as a result of the charges that some plainclothes
men have been taking dirty money
Yep! Not being a cop, and never wishing to be
one, we can't comprehend But we can compre-
bend why Mulrooney gets off such horse-radish
In addition maybe he would explain how it is
that in adding to the above, he tried to
make out that only about one hundred" of his
cops were Exposed to real temptation" and these
are all in Manhattan, when the same article Gin
the telegram in which he is quoted says that
in Brooklyn and Queens conditions are reported
to be as bad as they have been shown to be in
Manhattan" and in the Post it is related that
Mary Grow, registered nurse was framed by
the vice squad" OF Brooklyn.
So save your money, Mulrooney; that you talk
of the cops spending for advertisements in the
papers-"to let the public know that they loathe
and repudiate crookedness" Under the circlIm-
stances you might have to pinch yourself for
violating the law against misleading advertise
ments
