Soviet Workers at

THE new Amkino release playing
l at the Acme Theatre presents
between the scenes of a newsreel
compilation, what capitalist movie |
reviewers are over-fond of calling, |
"the happier side of the Russians"
the "leSE propagandistic side" of
sport, play and adventure.
I'm the Land of the Soviets" is
its title and it is a film to be seen.
1t is not even important that it is
badly assembled without much
rhyme or reason. The picture ex-
hales so much genuine spirit of
play and joy that breathing it in
from the screen is like being trans
ported, and participating in the
scenes of action. No other movie
can have this effect upon the movie
goer. The Hollywood newsreel is
dull and stale and usually leaves
you feeling the same way. You know
that seventy-t1ve per cent of the
picture is devoted to the pleasures
of the leisure class and knowing
this makes you doubly anxious to
get on to the cartoon or comedy
that is to follow.
A compilation like "In the Land
of the Soviets" which shows the
masses at play and at work, is an
unforgettable experience, any way
1t is presented. It's alive and robust
and vibrates always true to pitch.
And almost every scene unreeled of
workers going through perfect mass
physical exercises, performing ex-
pertly on the ice, skiing, Shedding,
boating, bathing, is matter of re-
Jolcing. At least we can say in one
part of the world, the part where
workers rule, winter sports, which
we in America have been accus-
toned to place in the category re-
served for wealthy parasites only.
are INDUCED in by factory workers,
coal miners, bakers and trolley con-
ductors. This alone is enough to
put the film in class by itself. |
Imagine Pittsburgh steel and iron
workers mentioning at Lake Placid,
N. Y, and you have a true picture
of workers leisure in the Soviet
Union during winter months.
Finally what deep and lasting
impression is left by this simple
newsreel, of the boundless strength
of the new Russia of workers and
peasants. Whether at work, building
industry or at play, building health,
the same contagious delight and
enthusiasm at doing purposeful
work.
A good section of the picture is
devoted to the May Day Parade
which in the Soviet Union every
year is growing expression of mass
power and spirit hitherto unknown
to history. Here there are all too
short flashes of Dimitrov convers-
ing with Cork, Dimitrov with |
Stain and Kalinin, scenes of the
Red Army on parade, of the power
full air force and then the great |
masses of Moscow, gloriously dem
onstrating their solidarity with the
working class of the world. Also
included in the picture is a remark
able Photographic account of the
auto expedition to the Kara Kun
Desert, as well as the story of the |
heroic Chelyuskin Expedition to
Behring Strait.
If you miss hundred other films
don't fail to see I'm the Land of the |
Soviets." Besides, it will give you
a pretty good idea of what your
own country will be like after the I
workers capture power in the near
future

Militant Spirit in Secret
Letter from German Worker

THE letter printed below was sent
1 to the Daily Worker from a
Hamburg 1ongshoreman, who gave
it to a seaman on an American
ship for secret transmission to
New York.
The fighting spirit displayed in
this letter, the determination and
confidence that no Nazi terror can
choke off the anti-fascist strug-
gle in Germany, prove how the
teaching and heroic leadership of
Ernst Thaelmann have forged an
lnconquerable steely corps of
militant fighters in the dock
workers of Hamburg.
This letter is a spur and an en-
couragement to the anti-fascist
workers of the United States to
continue in their struggle for the
final overthrow Of fascist rule,
through the establishment Of a
Soviet world.
Hamburg, May %, 1884.
Dear Comrades:
At the suggestion Of Comrade
r. I am sending you a short re-
port on our present situation here.
AS you know, the Nazis' praise
Of their own successes still goes
on; they never stop telling the
workers the lie that everything is
fine in the Third Reich.
To give the American workers
an idea of what they are really
doing, want to mention a few
examples.
The amount of margarine sup
piled to the unemployed has been
cut in half since last year-from
two pounds per month to the

But this is having its own re-
suits. can say that at no time
has the working class so rapidly,
realized how great the swindle is

in the ranks Of the Storm Troop

scorn for the government is be-
coming louder and louder. With
conditions as they are in Germany,
this means much more than it

Comrades, I have mentioned
only a few of many hundreds Of

this SHORTCUT want to add a.
few words on the fighters Of the
Party. ~
Here in Germany the comrades
are working with redoubled en-
thusiasm. Dangerous work is done,
every day in spite of the brutal
suppression. We reach out our
hands to you, as to all our class
brothers all over the world, and
ask you to keep on fighting until
the final victory Of the world pro-
