IKE its predecessors CWashing-
Il ton Merry Go-Round, Conquer

etc. the new DEAF propaganda

around scenario so incredibly
confused and unreal that it falls
short to great extent of being as
effective capitalist propaganda as
its producers intended it to be.
1t reflects all the fears, the con-
fusion, the insanity of a ruling class
that is beginning to perceive
rapidly approaching disaster. AS
creative work it offers nothing but
the most negative qualities, never
rising to anything above gloomy
cynicism. But it remains uncom-
promisingly bitter at all times, Bit

bombs ready to annihilate you.
Don't follow the Communists!
They are madmen who will desert
you after they have themselves be-
come capitalists. Things are tough
nowadays, but they might be worse.
And so on until the film, the
medium employed to tell you these
things, degenerates into a loose
compilation of poorly related Sc
quences in which the unfortunate
actors no longer seem to under
stand what they themselves are
saying, nor the director what he
is really after.

type act as sort of bridge in the
present period to the eventual
complete transition to the out
right political newsfilm which has
been developed on gigantic scale
during the last four years. All of
which signifies that the bourgeois
film as entertainment" as cart"
has now completely collapsed, even
as the mere pretense which it had
always been, and that we are now
confronted with the open, unres-
tricted use of the screen as a Weap-
on in the fight of the ruling class
against the rising wave of revolu-
tionary struggle against war, hun

picked up on the road to Baltimore.

just off a re-cropper's 20-acre
cotton patch in Florida. His grand
father was the cropper. The boy
pulled out, he said, when they
started to blowing up ten acres of
the 20 he had helped plant, cul-
tivate and nurse along.
II couldn't stand to see that cot
ton go under. So I up an left.
Besides, they didn't have no more
use for me with only 10 acres cot

My friend asked whether the
troopers were to get any part of
the government bounty paid to the
landlords for blowing up the acre

about that" the boy answered. "No
