SEED IS
3. CHALLENGE


A challenge to women In Lowell
That Is the absorbing theme OF
the picture seed" filmed from
Charles @. Norris great novel, with
John Boles, Genevieve Tobin and
Lois Wilson in the leading roles,
and now current at the Capitol
Theatre.
There have been many triangle"
pictures, but never one like this
production. 1t is startling in its
sincerity. and the lifelike quality
that dominates everything about IL
%story, players, and direction.
A screen play dealing seriously
with domestic problems is always
full of interest, IL 1t is well de-.
And Seed" Is much better than
swell done" II Is speculative
without doubt one OF the best talk
ing pictures ever produced.
The story was adapted from
Norris much-discussed best-seller,
and its principal roles are acted by
q trio of players whose ability is of
a very high order. John Boles IS
seer as a husband and father whose
latent abilities as a writer have
been wrecked because he must con-
tinually devote himself TO the diff
ficult task of supporting a large
family OF children.
Genevieve Tobin gives q magnifi-
cent portrayal Of the boyhood
sweetheart OF the would-be writer.
She appears ten years after his
marriage and Stirs his ambition
which, under her inspiration,
Flames into successful creative
writing. Then there Is the third
member OF this remarkable trio OF
players-Lois Wilson. in the role
of the authors wife, the mother
OF his five children. Her perform
ance Is a classic Of acting-un-
questionably the greatest mother
portrayal w seen on the screen,
and utterly natural.
IL Is the situation between the
two women for the love OF the man
that dominates the action OF the
story.
The supporting cast includes
Raymond Hackett. Bette Davis.
ZaSu Pitts. Frances Dade. Richard
Tucker, and a remarkable grour
Of five children who add greatly
to the enjoyment OF the picture.

NEW YORK.-A united front OF
labor takers, bosses, the socialist
Newspaper, Forward" and Mayor
Walker are at this moment in the
process of selling out the strike OF
the walters and mattresses in A. F.
of L. Local /. Members of the local
went on strike last Saturday against
a wage-cut of 40 per cent for night
walters and Is per cent for day watt
ers.
For weeks the Forward" has been
running articles preparing the ground
for the wage-cut.
While the socialist" FORWARD"
shows its worry over the troubles OF
the millionaire restaurant owners
the walters and mattresses have been
Worrying about how to keep them
selves and their families alive on a
wage scale that starts at 1857 and
ends at $2l. Mattresses are dis
crininated against by getting Is per
cent less weekly than the walters. A
modified stagger plan is already In
effect in the union, the members
working five days week, although
the contract calls for six.
Negotiations" between the cor
rupt officials of Local 1 and the
members of the Restaurant Keepers
Association have been going on for
weeks When it became clear to the
rank and file of the union that their
officials were conspiring with the
restaurant owners to cut wages by
25 and 40 per cent, they declared
they would strike, Despite the fran
tic urging Of the officials to accept
the cut, the workers stood pat and
the officials were forced to advise
the restaurant owners to ask Mayor
Walker to arbitrate.
The members of Local l, however,
have unanimously voted against the
vicious wage-cut, saying: I'VE can't
arbitrate starvation A strike vote
last Thursday revealed that the en-
tire rank and file was ready to strike,
and strike they did last Saturday.
Absolute proof that the misleaders
in control of the local are conspiring
to crush the strike is afforded by the
fact that the minute the workers
had reached the decision to strike
scabs were seen rushing to the vari-
Gus restaurants. Also, pickets are
warned by the officials to march
near the curb and away from the
entrances, lin order that customers
entering the restaurants won't be dis

before each restaurant, and the

called out.
