by District Committee Of District 2
Communist Party

Communist Party
The District Committee has no dis
agreement with the comrades of the
Williamsburg Workers Club in their
protest against the failure of speak
ers to show up at meetings to which
they were assigned. This same COM
'plaint has been made by other work
erS' clubs and organizations. The
cause for this is two-iold 1t is due
first to the method of assignment
that was used by the District office
and secondly to the lack of respon-
1iblity of a number of comrades to
whom the assignments were made.
Since then, however, the District has
changed its methods of assigning
speakers, reducing the number of
clubs for which is assumes respon-
sibility, using more care in the selec-
ton Of speakers and definitely check
ing up before the meeting is to take
place to assure the attendance of the
speaker. Already the experience with
| this better control from the District
has resulted in practical elimination
of the complaints, such as those made
by the Williamsburg Workers Club.
At the same time the District wish
es TO call to the attention of the com
rades of the various clubs, etc. the
practice Of announcing the names of
speakers on their leaflets without as
oertaining from the district the abil-
ity of these speakers to speak on the
night advertised. Before such an
nouncements are made the comrades
must first get in touch with the dis
trict office in order to be assured OF
the attendance of the speaker at the
meeting.
The District welcomes such reaction
on the part of the workers and will
take all necessary measures to pre-
vent recurrances Of such disappoint-
mentS.

Militancy
The demands, including especially
the demand for release of three job
less leaders arrested at the orders of
the Relief Bureau two weeks ago,
were enthusiastically adopted by the
mass meeting, the biggest ever seen
in this part Of town.
The police, seeing the militancy Of
the crowd, did not attack it but used
more lying. They agreed that five
committeeman could go in to the
Home Relief Bureau. and then ar
bitrarily cut the number down to
three.
Concessions
But the Bureau supervisors had
seen the rising tide OF workers anger
too, and began to make concessions.
They agreed to consider getting
along without police in the Bu-
1eau." They agreed to give imme-
diate attention to all II cases Of
destitute families submitted by the
unemployed councils. They referred
the question Of firing the supervisors
to the Gibson committee.
The demonstrators continued their
meeting until the delegation reported
back, then most of them went to
picket the rent strike at 226 Barrett
Street.

CINCE our Hollywood excursion this
~ Summer a day has never gone by
without some one asking us: is
Franchot Tone going to marry Joan
For once and for all we say, Yes"
1hiS is not statement OF fact,
II Is q statement Of opinion. II Is
based on knowing Mr.. Tone and on
having dined with both of them thrice
Bowl with them once. 1t Is an ObSer-
vation on a future event, not some
thing that is likely to happen either
today or tomorrow.
1t is something that Is inevitable
between two people, as Mr.. Coward
might say. who love each other very
much" 1t is not something, as so
many think, that is merely a Holly
wood publicity stunt. If 1t was q
stunt" then you would see them fam
ing around at large Hollywood parties,
you would see them together launch
ing battleships and advertising motor
cars, you would see them at every
premiere, at every tea" and at every
function at which there are to be
cameras, reporters and slews Of press
agents.
Being in the public eye. they cannot,
of course, avoid detection. You have
only to walk down the hall Of the
Ambassador Hotel with Miss Crawford
to have people whisper and ogle and
almost fall dead in surprise and Joy
at seeing her. Her long black town car
has only to run up the long roadway
to the crest of the Hollywood Bowl to
have her surrounded and her identity
no longer secret.
Instead. however. Of throwing her
self theatrically into one Of the many
boxes. she climbs to the highest peak
OF the gallery and there hides her.
self as best she may.
Nor do Joan and Franchot mingle
with the great proving multitude.
Since her divorce Joan has not gone
to single large reception. The photo
graphs you see Of her are taken either
at hotel or at some club where she
ana FTaIICloI nave gone dloIIe-dlWdyS
alone. When you dine at Miss Craw-
ford's home there are never more than
two or four or six others, and 1t Is
never anything like a formal party.
You have a very good time, but you
do not expect to see Gary Cooper
Freddie March, Jean Harlow or some
other celebrity.
Miss Crawford is satisfied to be alone
as much as possible with Mr.. Tone.
Their romance Is not a flimsy, obvious
affair. 1t is very discreet and very
we'll ordered. Only of course, 1t is
apparent. You can't look at a girl the
way Franchot does at Joan and lady
can't look at Tone with Miss Craw-
ford's eyes without meaning more than
publicity"
They are very much In love-make
no mistake about that.

erty on its release.
The studio says, 'if you think Hep
burn was good in Morning Glory wait
until you see her in Little Women;
she was only rehearsing in Morning
Glory"
Which is pretty cute way Of put
ting It.
II she was rehearsing in Morning
Glory" she was rehearsing for only one
role. And she played that role straight
to the line, consistently, beautifully
and with touch Of sheer genius for
the comedy implications. II was
smooth and even performance, in

10 March is the most uneven per-
formance Katharine Hepburn has given
for the cameras I say this at the risk
Of being hooted. But it is uneven from
the standpoint that in it you find that
first girl from Clemence Danes Bill
Of Divorcement':-at times she Is the
brash and tinny creature from Chris
topher Wren''-and again she Is the
girl we have just seen in Morning
Glory"
Tie these all up together and they
spell an evenings entertainment If you
will. But pull it to pieces and you can
see that the rational and fine high
spirited 10 March presented IN the be-
ginning Of the picture doesn't fit Into

quently. The cutters shears may re-
store the smooth line and consistency

to rate with Morning Glory" Other
wise, the performance of 10 March is
like that gala" evening, given at the
end Of the opera season, when you get
one of every popular aria done during
the season.
If Little Women" sells on Katharine
Hepburn's performance, there will be
no need to revive any more literature
Of that period by other producers. If
it goes on the strength of Alcott's popu-
larity with the American public, We
may have a whole deluge Of pictures Of
similar trend At this stage of the
game it becomes an interesting problem.

me. But 1 can't wait % test the tenn

f1OllyWOOQ lcllllS courts prepared
The moment she appeared Hollywood
went ga-ga. For Miss Garbo is a rarer
siSht IN town than ever these bearded
hermits whom you can see occasionally
wandering along Sunset boulevard,
wrapped in "shorts' and their weird
inaginations. You may see her only if
you come with the birds TO the Metro
studios and wait outside of her dress
ing room staircase. Or again if you
linger outside of set No. q long enough
for her to have finished her days stint
on Queen Christina"
Miss Garbo, like Mae West, works
very hard when she works. But instead
OF going to fights when she is free. she
plays tennis or walks along her long and
high inrrace, which has a magnifc mt
view OF the California coast and the
Pacific.
The fact that she played tennis out
side Of her domain recently was the
signal, however, for much verbal am
munition.
Is Garbo suddenly becoming human?
To be human in Hollywood means going
to premieres at Graumant's Chinese
Theater; being interviewed by fan maga-
zine writers; dancing at the Cocoanut
Grove; eating at the Vendome; playing
at the Colony; swimming at Malibu
Beach; shopping on Hollywood boule-
ward with a yellow (make-up) face:
hal.-4g your picture hanging out of
stocking stores; being seen at the Bowl
concerts: being seen at the Friday night
fights; being seen in a glaSS-bottom
boat at Catalina; gambling at Caliente;
riding in Beverly Hills: fishing with a
Barrymore and appearing at all times
with pen and ink so that you can auto
graph whatever piece of paper is sud-
denly thrust in front OF you.
According to this racket, Miss Garbo
will never be human. There are indi-
cations. even more than that sudden
tennis game, however, that she Is melt
ing.
The first of these is her behavior, as
she returned to this country, neither
naughty nor austere, and quite willing
to walk down the gansplank ike an
ordinary citizen instead of being hustled
out of the kitchen with a frying pan
to avoid recognition.
The second is her signing John
Gilbert. the one man in her life who. 1t
IS said. could make her do his bidding.
And the third is the fact that she is
taking much more interest in the films
than she ever has before, and that the
idea of Queen Christina originated
with her. and that she has been quietly
working on the script for three years.
She ,sems. in other words, like Joan
Crawsord, to be trying to put her past
behind Yer and to be evolving into
real person as well as mere cinematic
shadow. That she is bright there is
no denying, as those who know her will
tell YOU. That she has one of the worlds
attractive personalities is another one
of her assets, according to the same
people And that, step by step, she is
emerging from solitude and retirement
is something else that seems to be be-
coming a certainty.
Just how human she has become will
perhaps be evident in her new film. Or
is the public so Mae West minded that
when this is shown, it will have for
gotten her? A little perhaps-but once
a Garbo admlrer, always an admirer.
