CATHOLIC CHURCH NOTES

Mass, July 9, Duquette and Bruno.
Outside of the Catholic church
there are many who do not really be-
lieve in He'll, nor Heaven, nor final
judgment, nor even in death. Clear
cold calculating reason tells them tina:
death is inevitable, but many health
full people do not believe here and now
that they will die. They do not feel
like dying, and therefore death is not
reality for them no more than is
judgment and He'll. And their re-
ligious training often drugs and lulls
them into a dangerous self-complacen-
cy and feeling" of being saved"
They believe that Christ will pitch
fork them into Heaven, without Civ
ing up their pet vices, if only they
"bawl" to Him now and again for a
''cover-up." Physicians do not "cover
up" bodily diseases. And Christ warns
these people that mot every one who
say to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the
Kingdom of Heaven" etc. The Catholic
church helps people to think straight
by facing facts; and helps people to
do 'the will of the Father" the ten
Commandments not by mere natural
and occasional emotionalism. but by
the supernatural help of Christ's Sac
raments, in which God helps people
to help themselves, and helps those
only who help themselves.

The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1933-12-02
BY JOSEPH FREEMAN

Natural law, majestic and i'm
placable, rules the universe. 1t gives
one a great sense Of security to know
in advance that the sun will rise in
the east and set in the west, that
II winter comes spring cannot be far
behind, that Mae West viii forever
thrill the repressed with OSCILLATIONS
Of the Oldest profession in the world;
and that after superb play like
Peace on Earth" the bourgeois
critics will sit on their well-oiled
launches and chant In chorus This
is propaganda"
The Theatre Unions production
opened Wednesday night, at the Civic
Repertory Theatre, before mixed
audience Of evening clothes and fan
mel shirts who were swept by the
plays power into prolonged applause.
The house was filled not merely with
the intellectual response evoked by
good propaganda, but with the emo
tional tension aroused by good art.
Ordinarily, the official critics would
pay their respects to such reactions.
But they were stumped by the theme
around which George Sklar and AL
bert Maltz chose to build their drama.
One knows, Of course, that real art
is concerned with the eternal triangle
which one may, like Mr.. Noel Cow
ard, rearTange peryersely. It is also
desirable to deal with sentimental
memories of middleclass life circa
1906. One may even. like George
Sklar and Albert Maltz in previous
,''"v called Merry Co Iound, attack
corrupt municipal politics, provided
they do it at a time when Tammany
Hall and the Catholic church are pre-

Peace On Earth: The First
Theatre Union Production

pairing the Skids for playboy mayor
The objectionable crime is to crap
pie with the essential character of
capitalist society, particularly on the
verge Of a war which blasts away all
masks, wells, and falsehoods. In that
case the simple and horrible truth
becomes propaganda" and requires
on the part of the Official ;ritic coun-
ter propaganda.
The reactions OF the critics to
Peace on Earth" are worth noting
They not only reflect bourgeois
opinion. They are, in a sense, a
part of the play. Just as the hero
Of Peace on Earth" a clustered col
lege professor, cannot bring himself
to believe, before brute events teach
MIN better, that capitalist society Is
capable Of the worst atrocities; 80
the clustered critics Of the bourgeois
press cannot bring themselves to be-
lieVe that In portraying these atroci-
ties the Theatre Union play is simply
stating the facts.
Pelhaps the critics are only pre-
tending to be skeptical. When the
Times says Peace on Earth" breaks
into bitter fantasy over mob rule
IN wartime" one begins to wonder
where the critic was during the last
war.
For II anything, peace on Earth"
UNDERSTANDS the case. To show the
worst brutalitieS Of capitalism, 1t
would be necessary TO follow events
from the viewpoint Of the working
class. Here we have q story dealing
with the evolution OF an intellectual
toward the left under the impact Of
a wartime situation. Beginning with
free-speech fight on behalf of work
ers who are striking against the ship
ment Of munitions, the professor finds
himself q victim OF academic pres
sure, brought to bear by the u1iyer-
sity which Is controlled by the very
munitions maker against whom the
strike is being waged. The professor
comes in contact with the strikers:
he becomes their ally; and for that
reason is framed on q murder charge,
and in a wave of war hysteria Is
hanged as dirty red"
But while the world is seen through
the eyes Of an intellectual, mis- de-
velopment toward the left brings in
the two cla@ses engaged in bitter
social conflict. On the one hand,
the world from which Professor Peter
Owens Is breaking the munitions
manufacturer with his college presi-
dent his bishop, his scientist, his
novelist, his social worker, his police,
his troops, his congress, his press, his
president Of the United States; on
the other hand, the world into which
Owens is being drawn, the workers,
with their trade union, their strike.
their demonstration, their slogans
against war and capitalism.
The thirty scenes Of the play, con-
structed in the Expressionist style,
reveal the two worlds separately and
in direct combat. This alone makes
Peace on Earth" 8 landmark in the
American theatre, for it Is a con-
