taxing program replete with arias
which have brought her fame and
which drew on her complete vocal
resources. This constituted an enor-
nous range Of tonal power, soaring
into the heights and bravura passages
of breath-taking difdculty. For en-
cores she added to the list other
numbers Of like caliber, sung with ex-
ceptional charm. Nine. Pons has q
way Of her own in attaining her ef-
fects, notably the very highest point
Of her range, and she sings with o
joyous abandon and proper coloratura
style.
There Is q flashing brilliancy in
her horid work that has more behind
1t than q merely God-given ability for
clear runs and staccati, for one feels
her innate musicianship and artistic
feeling. Whenever an occasion arose,
as in Rimsky-Korsakoff's 1.-The Rose
and the Nightingale" she evidenced
further talent for simple singing,
with q true depth Of sentiment to
color 1t. While most Of her numbers
called for trills, staccato runs and
crescendos on high tones, the few runs
Of more legato character showed q
velvety quality and rich fullness of
great loveliness. All her coloratura
passages held the additional beauty
Of perfect pitch, but at times in the
more sustained moments that bane of
coloratura singings, inability to sustain
the tone Of their proper level, crept in.
Now and then touch Of fatigue was
visible in certain tones, but so fleet
ingly as not to interfere with the
general enjoyment Of her singing.
Several of her numbers were sung
with flute obbligato, excellently de-
livered by Dominica Iascone Of the
National Symphony Orchestra. OF
outstanding beauty was her singing
Of the arias. Gretry's "Air From Ze-
mire ct Azor," the una Voce POGO
Fa" from Rossini's Barber Of Seville" :"
the 20 Luce di Quest Anima" from
the revived opera Of Donizetti, LINDA

How Anti-Fascist Fighter,
Antonio Cramsci, Organized
Factory Councils in Turin

did his very utmost, in a steady,
methodical and most clever way, to
develop these internal Commits
| sions" into mighty factory council
/ movement.
THE factory councils were COM
posed Of the Representatives Of
all the factory departments and
shops, and we're elected by all the
workers in the given factory -
whether organized or not. The rep
resentatives in the factory councils
were, however, exclusively workers
who were members of workinsclass
trade unions. In this manner the
factory councils we're set against the
employers as institutions represent
ing the class trade unions--(the
leadership of which was very soon
won by the Communists)-and the
whole collective Of the workers.
Under mass pressure the employ
ers were compelled to give the work
shop "commissars" and the factory
councils the right to solve or to par
ticipate in the solution of all oues-
lions of interest for the workers.
namely:-admittance to work, and
dismissals, wages for piece-work,
day work, etc. working hours, fac
tory regulations, and other such
questions. Thus in accordance with
Gramsci's conceptions and also in
deed, the factory councils expressed
the revolutionary will of the masses,
the will Of the working class in
setting, within the factories, their
power against the power of the en-
ployers. At the same time the fac
tory councils were the kernel and
school Of proletarian power.
And indeed, in 1919. 1920 and 1921
the owners Of the Turin factories
were although still the owners, no
more the masters with full power
And during the capturing Of the
factories, in September. 1920, the
Turin workers showed themselves to
be, as far as they were concerned,
fully capable of winning full power
1t was only the treachery Of the
social democratic leaders, on ma
tional scale. which forced them to
return the factories TO the capital
lists.
With the triumph Of fascism, the
factory councils together with the
attachments Of the workers, were
destroyed. But the memory of the
| factory councils is still strong in
the minds of the proletariat OF
Turin and of the whole of italy. And
on the 14th anniversary of the cap
ture Of the factories, in these days
when the campaign for the liberia
ton of Antonio Gramsci is partic-
ularly intensified, this memory is
stronger than ever before.
The brave and stubborn struggle
of the Italiar, proletariat will sue
coed In snatching Gramsci from the
clutches Of his murderers, and the
struggle for power will be the con-
tinuation and completion Of the ex-
cellent struggle for the factory
councils conducted by the Turin
workers under the leadership Of An
tonic Gramsci.

Letters From German
Concentration Camps
Expose Nazi HI errors

The appalling bestialities of the
Nazi regime are exposed, as only
Nasi victims can expose them, in
THE Nazi Horror: Letters from
German Concentration Camps" a
pamphlet now being distributed by
International Publishers.
Introducing the letters, Kurt
Buerger writes: THE long history
Of mankind is replete with records
Of the numerous atrocities that
were rerpetrated during the poll
tical struggles for power in all the
various periods and places. Yet
all these atrocities and crimes sink
into inSignificance when compared
with what has been happening
daily in Germany during the last
eighteen months =.
More than 5000 workers, peas
ants and intellectuals were MUIR
dered in Germany during the first
year Of the Hitler dictatorship.
More than 5000 were tortured until
they were reduced to cripples, all
for the pretended sake of culture,
for the moral renaissance of the
German peoples In reality, how
ever, they are the victims of the
reign of terror which the ruling
class exercises through fascism in
order 10 hold in check the working
class
But Hitler's hordes are not al
lowed to rule unchallenged. AS
Buerger shows: These documents,
gruesome as their content is, tes-
tifying as they are to the depravity
and barbarisrn of decaying capital
ism and its Brown myrmidons,
nevertheless, have their bright side !:
the bravery, the spirit, the self
sacrifice and loyalty to conviction
evinced by the imprisoned anti
fascist fighters for freedom, who,
despite the most fearsome torture,
remain true to the proletarian
struggle for freedom and to their
who prefer death rather than be-
tray their comrades"
