plies some good data on this latter
phase. The myth about Soviet dump
ing is still going strong in Canadian
capitalist propaganda, especially the
alleged dumping of Soviet lumber.
1t happens that Bennett, the Cana
dian premier, has personal interests
in the Canadian lumber industry
Both in this article and in an ar
ticle called Barter or Bayonets," it
is made clear to the workers that
the policy pursued by the Canadian
bosses of shutting out Soviet goods
and blocking Soviet orders is a policy
by which the workers are made to
bear the burden of the Canadian
capitalist trade war against the
U.SS.R.
The Canadian bosses, it is pointed
out, are particularly interested in de-
string that the contradictions be-
tween American and English impe-
rialism be solved by a united capt.
talist attack on the Soviet Union.
The Canadian bosses are therefore
among the most bitter in the capt.
taiist world in promoting plans for
such an attack The Friends of the
Soviet Union in Canada have an i'm
portant role to play in defense of
the U.S.S.R., and this first issue of
their magazine is an event of i'm
portance to the workers of all coun-
tries.

More Thunder

Last week there was a preyiew of

However, it seems that que Viva

Is concerned. Or fascist revolution.
For at the windup we see Mexico
concerned with 'industrialism. with
marshaling youth in sports, marches
and parades."
Mr.. Cohen goes on to say that, 'ac-
cording to this ending, Mexico may
be interpreted as a happy monarchy.

capitalist class. But then, know

Eisenstein's film. John S. Cohen, Jr.,

To even call this film Thunder

AN Hour With ChekhOU" to
HaUe American Premiere
at the Acme Tomorrow

Concentrating the 18th anniver-
Sary of the death of the Russian
writer, Anton Chekov, the Mejrab-
pomflm studios have produced a
feature film, "An Hour with Chek-
how" drawing OH his best short sto-
ries for material. The unforgettable
death of a Government Clerk"
Chameleon" and Anna Round His
Neck" are among the stories chosen
by the Soviet studios for this pro-
duction. The cast has been assem-
bled from the leading artists of the
Moscow Art Theatre and Ivan Mosk-
vim, internationally famous artist Of
the group, is to be seen in the role
Of Cherviakov, the government clerk.
IAN Hour with Chekhov,' which
opens today at the Acme Theatre,
recreates with all the rich ooserva-
ton for detail that was Chekhov's,
sharply turned portraits of old Rus
slams and old Russia. This film, dr.
rected by j. A. Protozanov, director
of Holiday of st. Jorgen" and Jim
my Higgins" has caught the mood
and spirit Of the master writer; the
rhythm of his stories have infected

they are his chief concern"
She gees ON to explain what RooSe-
yelt's program is and how it serves
the capitalists and cheats the work
ers. Roosevelt knows that the hand
talists has weakened the treasury
without checking the downward slide.
The treasury is still being drained to
provide aid to banks and railroads.
To offset part of this drain, wages
of federal employees have been cut,
aid 10 veterans has been reduced,
and thousands of federal employees
have been thrown out to JOIN the
masses of unemployed workers.
Initiation Part of Program
Initiation, a chsapening Of the dol
lar which pushes prices up, has fol-
lowed as part of this program. Under
the Hoover and Roosevelt crisis poll
cies, which have run true to capital
list form, initiation could not be avoid
ed. Most of the capitalist groups now
want initiation because it will give
temporary help to the capitalists at
the expense of the workers. They
even have the vain hope that infla-
ton will be way out of the crisis
Why it is not and cannot be a way
out of the crisis is then explained by
the author in an argument easily
understood by ali workers. Even those
who think they already understand
all about the complicated question CT
currency in relation to production
and markets and unemployment will
find this pamphlet a help in explain
ing to other workers why the cheaper
dollar and higher prices are the re-
suits of the economic crisis of capt.
talism.
This brief, 24-page pamphlet
should be widely circulated among
the workers. 1t is one that will APP
peal to Amer.can-bo workers of the
very groups We are beginning to
reach.
