panels with illustrations from all parts
of the world, depicting the life and &C
tivity of Marx and his great co-work-
er, Frederick Engels, from the stormy
days of the revolutions that swept
Europe in 1923, through the founding
of the First International, the Paris
Commune, the struggle against Proud
hon, Bakunin, LaSalle.
Special care has been taken 10 so
arrange the exhibition that it not
only shows the activities of Marx from
his earliest years until his death, but
it also refutes with documentary
evidence the social-democratic vul-
CARRIERS of Marxisf11. 1t shows the
development of Marxisn1 into this
stage of Imperialism the period Of
the decline of capitalism and the pro-
letarianletarian revolution - proving
how Leninism is the only Marxism
of this period and how, today, in the
Soviet Union, the Communist Party,
under the leadership Of Joseph Stain,
is developing further the. principles
Of Marxism-Leninism.
Combat Anti-Marxist Campaign
This tour of the exhibition. and the
lectures and mass meetings in con-
nection with it, is of tremendous poll
teal significance, especially in view
of the worldwide assault being made
upon Marxism by capitalist and fas-
cist vandals The attack upon Marx
ism is the theological counterpart Of
the general offensive Of capitalism en-
desvoring to find a way out of the
crisis.
After Boston (Sept. "a and 25), the
exhibition will be shown for two days
| in Buffalo, two days III Cleveland,
/ two in Detroit and three days each

Cities minneapolis end st. PauD
From there Wicks will go to the Paci-
fic Coast, with stops at Butte ard

After making the principal coast cities
he will return through Salt Lake City,

(Memphis, New Orleans, Birmingham,

Reading and Philadelphia finishing
in New York early in December.
This is the first tour of this kind
ever arranged in the United States.
There is such a wealth of material
in the exhibition that 1t will arouse
great interest in the works of Marx,
Engels, Lenin and Stain and will
stimulate the study of revolutionary
theory not only among the members
of the Communist Party and those
close to the Party, but among con-
siderable sections of the working
class, professionals; students, etc, and
will give an impetus to all the work
of the Party, especially stimulating
the activities Of workers schools, and
other educational work.

Dor movement, at first with the So
cialist Party of France. Contact with
Jean JaureS impressed Minor with
the belief that the French Socialist
Party was very much the same as
the American. He came in contact
with Russian revolutionary leaders
but all that he met in Paris failed to
impress Minor with revolutionary
character. They were such men as
Bourtseff. ss.,s..
He tended more and more to con-
fine his associations to the revolt
tionary trade unionists, especially the
railroad men, who had an anarcho-
syndicalistic outlook. In telling of this
Minor says frankly that the semi
anarchist views that he absorbed at
that time were petty bourgeois and
opportunistic.
America--19I4
Minor returned to America in 1914
just before the outbreak of the World
War. This was the time when great
unemployment movement was going
on in New York The unemployed
workers had been breaking into
churches for shelter. The city was
aflame with class struggle Old
friendships with Alexander Berkman,
Emma Goldman and Leonard Abbott,
were renewed and strengthened by
the fact that the anarchists were in
the leadership of the unemployed
movement, whereas the Socialist Par
ty leaders absolutely refused to have
anything to do with it, Among Mi
nor's friends was a young American
Indian by the name of Arthur Caron,
a fiery and courageous leader of the
unemployed. In this circle Minor be-
gan to take part in the unemployed
movement. Almost, daily there were
sharp clashes with the police. 1t was
Just at this time that the New York
police began seriously to develop their
technical methods of modern sup
preston of the workers. The old
European system, of "provocateurs"
began to be used more Systematically
in New York than it had ever before.
Savage crueltles of beating crowds
with night-sticks and clubbing indi-
vidual leaders of the workers were al
most daily episodes.
Preachers openly called the police

to eject the unemployed from
churches.
Through historical circumstances
John D. Rockefeller became a par
ticular object of hatred of the work
ers' movement. This hatred associ-
ated the Oil King with the bloody
murders in the mine strike at Lud-
low, Colorado, couple years earlier.
Police claimed that the unemployed
were going to make a physical at
tack on John d. Rockefeller. CA
shakedown of the Oil King by pri-
vate detectives was suspected, and
william j. Burns was at work in the
caSe)
About July of that year (1914) a
terrific explosion in the dead of night
blew up tenement house on Lexing-
ton Ave. Four people were killed. One
of these was Bob'S friend, Arthur
Caron. Besides him, two Of his asso-
ciateS, Hansen and Berg, were killed,
as well as woman. The three men
had been leaders of the unemployed
movement. Immediately the capitalist
press renewed its savage batting of
the unemployed movement and called
for blood-vengeance against the
leaders of the unemployed.
The police adopted the theory that
the unemployed leaders we're engaged
in preparing a bomb against Rookie
Teller. A police provocateur was con-
cerned in the affair.
On account of the attitude of the
New York World, Minor refused to do
the work that he was assigned to do.
The World editors knew that other
newspapers were bidding for Minors
services as an artist and would not
release him from contract Of en-
ployment under which the courts
would not permit any other papers
to publish his drawings. For some
weeks Minor was not permitted to
do any work but was paid the large
salary that the contract called for.
Then the World War broke out in
August, 1914. A few more weeks of
experience and Minor was to learn
that it is not possible for revolu-
ZIONIST to work at making pictures
Especially as Minor was essentially a
cartoonist) with the capitalist press.

The publication of which cannot
be delayed, we are postponing
part of the final installment
for tomorrow.
Tomorrow's issue will con-

account up to the PRESENT.
IN 1912 Minor went to New York in
very dissatisfied state of mind
diSillusioned over the attack and ex-
pulsion of Haywood from the Ma
tional Executive Committee of the
Socialist Party. But as he says now,
he was very much confused and tend
ed towards an anarchist position in
the quarrel between what was then
called the direct action and the par
liamentary factions In the labor
movement.
Having saved several hundred dol
lars in wages he decided to go to
France to attend an art school. AL
though Minor was already known as
one of the best cartoonists in Amer
lea, he had never Studied art" ex-
cept as sign painters apprentice.
In the sign painters shop he had
drawn letters and sketches with
chalk on the floor, In accord with an
age-old custom, and the skilled Sign
writer's" we're obliged to help with
criticism. But Minor now decided that
he wanted to see what real art
school was like.
| In Paris he enrolled in class of
the French national art school, the
Ecole des Beaux Arts. But here again
he was bitterly disappointed. AS he
says, not a single person in the whole
school had the slightest interest in
art. The whole institution existed to
teach people how to make money.
Studied by Himself
So the rest of his time in Paris
Minor spent either in studying by
himself or attending meetings and
taking part In the revolutionary Ia

Today's Film
"The Man Who Dared" StreWs
FEOWerS on the Craze
of Anton Cermdk

'The Man Who Dared" a screen
drama by Dudley Nichols and Lamar
Trotti, directed by Hamilton Mac
Fadden and presented by Fox Films
at the Roxy Theatre, with the follow
ing cast: Preston Foster, Zita Johann,
Frank Sheridan and Douglass Cos
grove.
The late Anton Cermak, mayor Of
Chicago, was one of the most cor
rupt politicians of the past decade
and a bitter enemy of the workers of
Illinois. The new film at the Roxy
this week is a complete whitewash-
ing of his political life and an ideal
ization of the Democratic Party as
well as a new brief for the New
Deal. In short, The Man Who
Dared" is a completely dishonest pho
toplay.
The film abounds in demagogy and
hints at crooked politics, But all the
corrupt politicians are members of
the Republican faction. Even the
appearance of Cermak-who was
very foreign" looking and extreme
ly undignified as well as un-American
in Appearances idealized. Preston
Foster, who plays the part is made
to look like Franklin D. Roosevelt
the latest style in the conception Of
the 100 per cent American. The lies
in this movie are so bald that even
the capitalist press is compelled to
call it far-fetched fiction.
Technically this production is bad.
The director tried to telescope so
years into seven reels. As a result he
has made very episode and loose
film. Only the early portion of the
picture depicting Chicago in 1893 has
what might be called charm"
