Question in this department. 1t
calls for no answer, except to point
out that while many Party mem
bers are still confused on the Ma
tional question, the questions which
have been sent to the Daily Worker
and answered in this department
are not necessarily unhealthy ex-
pressionS of chauvinism. In most
cases these questions indicate a sin
cere desire for Qualification on the
Negro Question. Some of the ques-
tons clearly came from non-Party
workers, which in itself is a sign
that the Communist position on the
Negro Question is exciting the in
terest of the non-Party masses.
Their efforts to grasp the revolu-
tionary significance Of our position

pathy and patient explanation. This
applies also to those confused Party
members who are honestly seeking

New Pamphlet By Bella
Kun on United Action
In the Labor Movement

One Of the vital issues confront
ing the working class today is the
joining together of its forces for
the struggle against imperialist war
and fascism. A pamphlet on this
question has Just been published
entitled, "The Most Burning Ques-
tion-URity of Action" written by
Bella Kun. a member Of the Presi-
dunn of the Executive Committee
of the Communist International.
This pamphlet is an earnest APP
peal to Socialist workers to join
hands on daily issues with their
class brothers in the Communist
Party. Bella Kun recounts the
united front offers made by the
Communist International 10 the
Second International and by Com
nunist Parties throughout the world
to Social-Democratic Parties in their
own countries. He examines each
one of the reasons" given by So
cial-Democrati leaders in their con-
tinuouS refusals, and exposes these
reasons" as obstacles deliberately
put in the way Of the united front
by the leaders against the wishes
of the Social-Demoeratic workers.
The pamphlet shows that unity
of action in day-to-day struggles
can be achieved without organiza-
tional unity of the Socialist and
Communist Parties, citing instances
Of such actions in Germ any,
Austria, and France. And it is made
clear that in now addressing pro-
poSals for unity to Socialist leaders
as well as to Socialist workers, we
Communists have effected turn in
cur tactics by altering the form of
cur struggle in order to meet a sit
uation which has changed since the
beginning OF this year.
We Communists will fight with
dauntIess persistence for unity Of
the labor movement. Bella Kun's
Unity Of Action" explains simply
and clearly how we conduct this
fight,

This is the second instalment
Of the seveEth article by John L.
Spivak in the series plotting the
American Pograms," appearing
weekly in the New Masses. In
these articles, Spivak exposes the
widespread, organized anti-Sem-
itic activities, closely linked with
Nazi Germany, of organizations
and individuals such as the Order
of rs, Silver Shirts, Congressman
L. T. MoFadden, Ralph NJ. Easley,
George Sylvester Viereick. In the
first part of the present article
Spivak interviews Viola lima, Of
vague citizenship, organizer of the
Youth Movement, whose attempt
ed congress of youth organizations
last summer was defeated by the
united efforts Of radical and lib
eraI groups. Miss lima spent some
time in Germany before the Con-
gress was organized, and Spivak
is attempting to make the young
lady tell him who paid her ex-
penses.

Questions and A1swers

The question in this depart
ment, on Oct. IS, on what is the
correct attitude for the working
class on intermarriage between
Negroes and whites has provoked
a great deal of discussion. We
have already published three let
tiers from readers with corre-
spending answers. Today we are
publishing a fourth which should
add light Oh It'll arcthcr facet
of this important subject.
Comrade Editor:
Being the white wife of a Negro
comrade I feel particularly glad
that you have seen fit to discuss the
question Of racial intermarriage in
your Questions and Answers col
umns. I wish to commend the ex-
cellent manner in which you have
exposed the dangerous white chat
whist tendencies Of those comrades
whose logic" consists of little more
than evasive rationalism.
Being already married to a Negro
naturally the mention made of So
cial ostracism, etc, in your reply
on Nov. 5, sort of struck home. 1t
seems to me that so many COM
rades, many of them for many years
active in revolutionary circles, need
Qualification as far as such mar
riages are concerned.
The number of rude stares, over
bearing attitude, over" friendliness'
of many such comrades makes me
realize the magnitude of dealing
with the subject of white chauvin-
ism within the ranks Of Party and
sympathetic mass organization cir
cles.
Only when we 1.-THE working class
under the leadership Of its Commu-
mist Party-Editorl have completely
gained control of the organs OF
propaganda, the newspapers, schools
movies. ETC., through the proletarisn
revolution, will the matter of white
chauvinism be completely and ruth
lessly dealt with, and eradicated
Only another word in regard to
this question Of marrying or not
being willing to marry a Negro, The
Editor hit the nail on the head
when he said that the correspond
ent revealed his chauvinism in his
objection to all Negroes, ie., not
stating that he objected to Negroes

THE FIRST WORLD WAR, a Fox
Film, edited by Lawrence Stall
ings from Photographic archives
Of the World War, now playing at
RialtO Theatre.
Reviewed BY
DAVID PLATT
ECTHE First World War is IN
l doubtedly the best edited Of
all the recent newsreel documen-
taries on the World War. Arranged
in chronological order beginning
with the first motion picture made
Of Bismark, back in 1901. it carries
the spectator forward through
thirty-three years Of the most grue-
some and chaotic period known to
history.
It is almost unnecessary to report
that the film is dubbed with speech
prepared by Lawrence Stallings and
spoken by the actor Pedro de
Cordoba. in the best rhetorical ira
dition Of liberalism and impartial
ism" This is accomplished to the
point sometimes, where you COM
pletely lose sight Of the horrors of
war and see nothing but its glories
on the sea, in the air, on the battle
field. And the editors have been
careful-very careful-not to reveal
too much of the actual barbarity of
war, in the event a Second War
makes it imperative to draft new
millions Of men who must not be
too hastily forewarned Of what's in
store for them.
That is why 1.-THE First World
War concentrates a great deal of
time and attention on the Captains
of War, their plans, ambitions,
hopes, both before and after 1914.
During the course of the picture
some several hundred Kings, En-
perors, Queens, Princes, Cars,
Kaisers, Presidents, most of them
dead or deposed, pass before our
eyes, all with weapons turned
against Jne masses they lead so
casually to slaughter.
OF the struggles of the masses
at home, of the intimate lives of the
recruits, the film gives nothing.
Only toward the middle of the pic
ture are we shown some signs of
life among the Russian soldiers dur
ing the days Of the February and
october 1917 Revolutions.
In this sequence there are two or
three remarkable flashes of Lenin
and Krupskaya at home, Lenin toy
ing amiably with kitten, Krups-
kays reading a book close by.
The film winds up with a thor
oughly false and vicious montage of
events forecasting the Second World
War, with Communists Jumped to-
gether with Fascists TO suggest that
both must be fought unstintingly
by all who have faith in Democracy
and the rights of private property.
