Men and Jobs" at 18th
Street City Theatre Today

In MEN AND JOBS, now playing
at the City Theatre on 14th Street
the Soviet studios have given us a
film built around socialist construc-
ion.
In MEN AND JOBS, the word
"Shockbrigader" OF which we have
heard much in the press becomes
alive
MEN AND JOBS, dealing with the
relations Of an American engineer to
the Russian workers under him, is
csid to embody new approach both
in sound and visual imagery.
Upon its release in Moscow, MEN
AND JOBS precipitated a violent
conflict in Moscow art circles. Ma
charct claims that the styled cine
ma technique so widely used in Soviet
studios is fast becoming a cliche, par
ticularly the photography of ma
chimes as self sufficient images. He
holds his work to be fresh depar-
ture in film language, making man
rather than things the core of his
pictures.

Ellis, Former Daily Artist,
Is Honored at Moscow Shoev
One-Man Exhibit Highly Praised; Now Staff
Cartoonist for Red Trade Union Paper

Fred Ellis received an ovation when
he rose to speak a few modest words
of thanks for the honors being be-
slowed upon him.
The exhibition itself is a striking
one. Around huge drawing of the
Paris Commune, the banner in a bold
red, are grouped about $50 cartoons
and sketches in black and white, done
in crayon, pen, charcoal and dry
brush. All these are the work of the
last year and a half A feature of
the arrangement is display of work
at various stages: from first sketches.
through work in progress and down
to the final completed drawing.
American Subjects Prominent.
One wall of the large central room
OF the museum where the drawings
are hung is covered with sketches
and ideas for cartoons. The other
three walls are covered with political
cartoons on practically every event
Of Importance in the past wear.
American subject matter is very
prominent: the Scot+eboro case, the
chain gangs, the hunger marches,
unemployment and many more as
poets of the American scene are bril-
liantly shown. Naturally all cap
tons are in Russian. A catalogue of
the work on display includes history
of the artist and an estimate of his
work both in America and the Soviet
Union.
Following this, loose-leaf book of
SO selected drawings will be issued
in huge edition, so arranged as to
permit workers organizations to
hang preferred drawings on their
walls.

cisco paper. We want this to be a
real trial" he shouted. Mooney
wants the whole world to know that
this is a frame up-that he was
framed by police and district attor-
ney of San Francisco" Motion de-
MED" said His Honor.
Mooney Defends Self
Tom Mooney chose to defend him
self. The Judge warned" him against
making fool of himself" But Moo
ney made good. He proved that he
was not only militant worker, but
a proletarian intellectual. His uni
yersity was the class struggle. His
dormitory was San Quentin. His
study chamber a damp cell.
1t had been Is years since Mooney
spoke in courtroom. His thick, black
hair had thinned considerable-and
turned grey during these years. But
underneath those shaggy eyebrows
his eyes flashed the same fire. He
stands straight as a die-head erect,
shoulders back His voice is firm and
resonant-it breaks once-from the
pent-up emotions that surged within
him.
Mooney argues vainly for the pro-
duction of all the evidence against
him. The People" refuses and asks
for an instructed verdict. 1t is
granted.
Not Guilty"
Six men and six women bring in
the verdict Not Guilty" 1t flashed
around the world-to inspire the
workers fighting for his freedom.
Does Tom Mooney go free?
No.
An almost unbelievable paradox
followed. With the verdict of Not
Guilty" ringing in his ears. handouts
are clapped on Mooney. The court
room and corridors fill with police.
Mooney is rushed to waiting car
and is back at San Quentin in less
than an hour.
But the verdict has gone around
the world.
Not Guilty"
Organize Department Groups
The workers always knew that. But
still this verdict vindicates Mooney in
the eyes of millions who didn't know
the facts. And it will encourage and
stimulate a greater mass struggle for
his freedom. The mighty power of
hundreds of millions of workers from
San Francisco to Moscow-from New
York to Bombay will yet force open
the gates of San Quentin-will smash
the whole frame-up system.
