sstS, taking advantage Of this cry,
are employing these millions Of
women in order, together with the
exploitation of children and Negro
workers, to still further lower the
standard of living Of the entire
working class.
Today, in the economic crisis, out
OF which the capitalists see only
one way, and that is, through war,
especially directed against the So
Wet Union, the time has come for
the women together with the other
workers, to fight back. All over
the country in the strike strug-
giles that are taking place in in
dustrieS in which women are &C.
cupied women are playing leading
role. In he textile and needle in
dustries, in the metal industry, the
women are on the picket line
fighting militantly against the po-
lice and gangsters. In the miners
strike, the miners wives are among
the most militant on the picket
line and in many instances are
most feared by the deputies and
thugs than are the miners them
selves. In District New York, where
hundreds of thousands of women
are employed in the needle, textile,
food and shoe industry, to say
nothing of the hundreds of thous-
ands in offices, stores, ETC., women
workers play a leading role. In
the present dressmakers' strike led
by the United Front Committee
and the Needle Trades Workers
Industrial Union, most Of these
dressmakers are young workers
who for the first time have been
out on strike and have Joined an
organization.

the women, little bit more back
ward than the men, nevertheless
on the picket line showed splendid
spirit. In the rent and bread
strikes, the working class house
! wives have played the leading role
snd these strikes have shown
clearly that the women workers
can be modified for struggle.
What has been done up to the
present, however, is only Slight.
Hardly beginning has been
made. The women workers, held
back by man prejudices and fears
can and must be drawn into strug-
gle. Without the participation of
the women workers and without
the active support of the working
class housewives, no struggle can
be won. The position of the Wo-
mems Trade Union League and the
socialist party must be battered
down. Women have become basic
part OF industry and as such must
be modified into the revolutionary
unions for active participation and
struggle.
At the present time with the
preparations for war going on most
theoretically, the bosses are organ

A Tennessee Women's Auxiliary of the
National Miners Union in Action

For some weeks the women were
almost ignored. The men did not
realize that their wives and moth
erS and daughters must also be ac-
tive in order to make the strike a
success. For women are not en-
ployed in the mines, and are re-
garded as home-makers and not as
fighters in industry.
But the women's organizer of
the National Miners Union came
along-and what change! The
women, eager to help, eager to be
active, eager to fight, at last got
their chance. Not only did the or
ganizer Immediately help these
women to set up a woman's auxiI-
larry Of the National Miners Union,
but she bawled out the men for
neglecting such tremendous op-
portunity for strengthening the
strike. And the men were not diff
tlcult to convince. 1t was Just a
case Of having their eyes opened.
Once the Women's Auxiliary was
set on its feet, and once the men
became convinced and supported
the organization, things began to
hum. Activity? More than the
women could keep up with. Taking
part in every activity, marching
side by side with the men in the
mass marches and demonstrations.
And besides that, a special program

on every committee in the strike, in
order that the women can take ac-
tive part in every phase Of strike

The ways and means by which the gossipy columnists of modern journalism get their information are amusingly exposed in Warner Bros picture, Blessed Event, which comes to the Cameo theater Sunday, and Monday.

 The picture shows Tracy as the columnist, getting information, hints and tips from dozens of varied sources. He uses his friends and his enemies, his experience and his imagination; he. relies on his luck and his intuition and not ipfreauentiy. he puts two and two together and makes seven or eight.

 We'll over a year has elapsed since the famous Bow personality has been seen on the screen. a year of refreshing rest and study during which time the famous star stored up the needed energy and vital forces which she Is said to release in full-fiood during the unfolding of this stirring romantic drama.
 Tn the main, the loveliness of features and expressions that has endeared Miss Bow to the public remains. but to replace the hoyden- isnns and mad-cap fapper ways that marked her earlier screen DOT trayals she is reported to possess Q new self-control, a boise and dignity that marks that picture as the first triumph of her maturing art.
 The plot of the picture relates. brifely, the dramatic struggle of an impulsive girl to control the half savage temper which Is her fiery birthright. and thereby find the ono true love she craves.
 From n Texas ranch, where she grew up in the wild ways of the open, Clara is expelled to Chi- cago finishing school by her wealthy but exasperated father. Her growing intimacy with hand some half-breed, portrayed by Gil- bert Roland, is given as the reason by her stern parent, but in reality his action comes as an admission of weakness on his part to control his headstrong daughter.

Conan, Gibson
 Garden Headliners ''Phant0m Pres i d e mt {" Brings Former Musical
 Comedy Star to City

George M. Cohan, Claudette Col bert and Jimmy Durante come to the screen of the New Garden theater Sunday and Monday in ''The Phantom President which treats the theater's patrons to an unusually diverting picture and hilariously points the finger of de- rision at the campaign methods of presidential candidates. ''Thc Phantom President" is a good pic- ture because of its three leading players. But 1t is also good because 1t has plausible, entertaining story, and it's comedy treatment of presidential campaigns is both timely and pertinent. It is the story of Theodore K. Blair, who couldn't be elected president be- cause he didn't have enough of the hail-fellow well-met personal ity to doing the candidates cam paigning for him.
 Conan, of course, plays both roles, while Darante appears as Curly Cooney. varney's pal and as- sociate in the medicine show. and Miss Colbert is Felicia Hammond. who refused to marry Blair and then fell in love with his counter part, Varney. "The Phantom President is as up-to-date as the mornings paper. and as funny q comedy as anyone could wish for.
 The companion feature is The Boiling Point" with Hoot Gibson.

The story Is intensely interesting, parading as 1t does. every standard entertain.

Intimate Life of Washing. ton Revealed in Week.
 end Feature

With the whole nation talking politics, Columbia beats all the other motion picture companies to the starting line with Washing ton Merry Co., Round" revealing and sincere picture that goes be- hind the scenes In the capitol to show what really goes on. It opened at the State theater to-day. This film is no trivial picturing of Washington buildings and monu- ments. It is, on the contrary. a tremendously though provoking picture which should be seen by every man, woman and child in the country. This is true expose. a forcible presentation of inside doings in the capital showing things which the average voter sel. dom realizes.
 The picture was directed by James Cruze and he has brought to his task much of the lofty patri- otic fervor which characterized those splendid pictures of his, "Thc Covered Wagon" and "old Iron- sides.''
 .sWashington Merry-Go-Round'' is a sure enough lowdown on the picture that dares to blast the lid off the national capitol. Ruthless. frank, fearlessly honest. You'll thrill to the patriotic young con- gressman's single-handed fight against gang politics and gang pol lticians. Here's 9 story with the explosive force of . bombshell. It pulls no punches, shows no favor And through all weaves the de- lightfully natural romance of a young girl who tries to reform Q political tartar.
 Columbia has woven into the story the soldiers bonus army which monopolized newspaper pages for weeks during the sum mer. The picture concern Buttor c. Brown, played by Lee Tracy, patriotic descendant of one of tht aigners of the Declaration of Inde. pcndence. who double-crosses tn crooks who put him in office. Here Is Washington under the spotlight --the truth handled without gloves Exciting, sensational. dramatic surprising, and as shocking as 2 charge of dynamite. Never have you seen such a picture.
 Tracy is letter-perfect as the forceful Congressman Brown. We can't think of another person who could have handled this difficult assignment as capably as he has Constance Cummings Is infinitely more than just the woman in tho acse.' Charming, talented, her performance in Washington Mer- ry-o-Round" will place her high among the scren elect. The same goes for every member of the high class cast which inclcdes Walter Connolly, Arthur Hoyt, Arthur vinton. Frank Sheridan and Clar. once Muse in an amusing colorcd Characterization.
