We've q World
to Change!
By BILL MORTON

- Dy DILL NUN YIN
When tyrants want the roost to rule
And keep the workers under,
They play us all for bloomin' fools
And split cur ranks asunder.
They make the white slave hate the
black,
The black slave hate the white,
And while each other we attack,
THEY profit from our plight.
If slaves forgot the lying rot
That bosses have 10 say,
They'd learn a lot and make it hot
For parasites today.
No longer then would working men
Toll for another's gain,
Nor children eat the husks of wheat
While bosses steal the grain.
This racial hate is really great
For boss and millionaire.
They rule the map while workers
scrap
And fall into their snare.
So black and white, let us unite
And be no longer strange.
We must at length pool all our
strength,
For we've a world to change.

"HelPs Holiday" at the Acme
Is Glib Defense of Horror
and Heroism of War

"Hell's Holiday" is the most recent
of the American official world wal
documentary films produced and re-
leased by an independent company
to prove that Americas sole inter
est in entering the war was purely
to save civilization from the fangs
Of the Boches. "We have no selfish
ends to serve" says the foreword tc
the film, quoting from one of Will
sons speeches, 1--WE seek no indem-
nifty for the losses we have sustained
and no material compensation for the
sacrifices of war. We are just cham
pions of mankind in its battle against
the forces Of darkness"
The entire film, which is inter
spersed with sound and glib speech
in defense Of the horrors and heroism
Of war, is in reality long hosannah
of praise for Americas glorious part
in the grand slaughter. Every five
minutes or so the narrator in langu-
age as cultivated and as barren as
Congressman's, takes time off to
eulogize American generalship in the
war. And every few feet, he stops
at the bloody corpse Of fallen soldier
and with deep glycerine tears in his
polished voice, mourns the loss of so
courageous fighter, and adds So
lemnly that he has not died in vain
poor fellow.
While soldiers are being moved
down by the thousands by machine
guns, liquid fire and bombing planes
there are flash-backs of Generals
Pershing, Foch, Petain and others
safely, miles behind the lines, dis
cussing further murderous plans of
attack that will mean more thou
sands Of lives. One scene in parti-
cular shows contingent of Italian
soldiers struggling flIriously to haul a
wagonload of supplies up a steep
mountain-top, while officers are calm
ly standing nearby, lingering their
mustaches and looking to see if there
are any signs of rain.
Queen Marie Of Rumania with her
sickening smiles and flowers is seen
for moment spreading futile sun
shine among the refugees, also the
pseudo-poet DAnnunzio, appealing to
Italian youth to shed blood in de-
fense Of Rome.
Following is typical utterance of
this lick-spittle apologist of the 1914
slaughter: '"The knowledge of mans
inhumanity towards man has in
creased tremendously with the ex-
perience of the World War" This is
strange news for the masses, millions
of whom were forced by their inhu-
man masters, at the point of machine
guns and poison gases, to slaughter
one another in the interests of the
Morgans, MELONS, French, German,
Italian bankers and industrialists, ETC.

not go to war because they had any

MOVIE NOTE
The Eagle and the Hawk

The oul-Searching question in this
war-adventure movie is which is the
Eagle and which is the Hawk In
the beginning of the film the Eagle,
is the hero, although much weaker
character than the hawk, who is the
villain. What is more-the hero is
merciful with his victims-mind you
the weakling, and the villain is
merciless-war is war. Here the
problem IS stated Presto-the situ-
alton changes. The Eagle, continu-
ally weakening, finally begins to re-
alize the futility of war and killing,
and after delivering himself of a
strong pacifist speech against war
to his superior officers, who take it
as sign of cowardice on his part
commits suicide.
Exit the hero-nobody can do that
in war and get away with it. But
the hawk strengthens, plays the
game ever more fiercely and after
doubly redeeming himself by his
courage in saving the honor of the
Eagle by covering up the dishonor of
his suicide-exit the vallainous hawk
and enter the new heroic Eagle. The
problem is solved. Which is the
Eagle and which is the Hawk? Three
guessesl

Boston Writers and
Artists Demand Death
Penalty for Lynchers

BOSTON, Aug. 17.-Acting on tele-
graphed reports from its friends in
the South, the John Reed Club of
Boston, an organization of writer's
and artists, yesterday wired its pro-
tests to Governor Miller of Alabama
on the lynching at Tuscaloosa on
Sunday of the three young Negroes,
Dan Pippen, Jr.. Elmore Clark and
A. T. Harden.
At special meeting of Club mem
bers its was stressed that the actions
of Judge Henry B. Foster, who re-
fused to permit International Labor
Defense attorneys to defend the Ne
groes, and of Sheriff R. L. Shamblin,
who turned them over to the lynch
mob, constituted complete co-opera-
ton with the murderers of the young
men who had been arrested on
charges framed up in typical Ala
bama fashion.
The John Reed Club has pledged
its support for the Tuscaloosa Lynch
ing Protest Demonstration called by
the International Labor Defense for
Saturday, Aug. 19, at $50 pm, at
Douglas Square, Hammond and Ire
mont Sts. The Club has designated
one of its members, Eugene Gordon,
noted Boston writer, to speak at the
demonstration.
