but that fear has been banished BY
the way he has brought Charles
Dickens Great Expectation" to the
talking screen. This picture places
him in the ranks Of the six best
directors in Hollywood-and that is
no idle statement. 1t remained
only for Mr.. Walker tc get We
hicle worthy of his talents to put
him at the top in Hollywood.
Under the guidance of Mr.. Walk
or, Henry Hull as Magwich, a
prisonbound desperate character
concerned only with murder for re-
venge. gives a performance that this
department lists as one Of the ten
best of the year.
Mr.. Hull has given the screen a
performance which viii stand the
test of time and will be remembered
for years to come. Watch the way
ne catches the true spirit of time in
which the characters of Dickens
we're created.
Watch the whitening and eccentric
work of Florence Reed as Miss Havi-
sham, who shut herself up in a
great house and never saw the SUM-
rise after love was driven from her
heart. You will agree that these
men and women of the stage really
can do big things on the screen.
George Breakstone, a young boy
who is going far on the screen, is
cast as young Pip. the waif and OBJ
ject of cruel society-a character
which always is found in a Dickens
story. The boy does fine, sensitive
work again under Walkers meas
ured, sensitive sympathy and under
standing.
Philips Holmes takes up the role
of Pip when Breakstone becomes too
youthful to carry on. Holmes does
an appealing job of the troubled lad
when he discovers that a convict
was his benefactor.
Watch the atmospheric sets and
the way the characters fit naturally
into another day which the sets in
dictate. Here is a triumph for both
director and cast.
Don't let anybody talk you out
of seeing this one on the grounds
that it is highbrow. Here is a mo-
vie for every one who wants stories
written by the greatest writer's.

Labor Departments and the use of
conference methods so as to foster,
promote and develop the welfare of
the wage earners of the United States,
improve their working conditions and
advance their opportunities for profit
able employment as the organic act
demands. we are making the following
recommendations:
United States Public Employment
Service, Federal Fair Use by wage
earners and employers Of the facili-
ties Of the United States Employment
Service, developed in cooperation
with the States should aid both
groups and the country as q whole.
It has been placed on a sound basis
by the Wagner-Peyser act, 1888, Of
the Congress and is being developed
under an advisory board Of outstand-
ing leaders Of employment. workers
and the general public. and is de-
signed to organize the labor market
Of the entire country so that wage
earners may find opportunities for
work, when 1t exists, in the easiest,
most effective way. A well co-ordi-
mated system Of public employment
offices is q necessary part in the re-
turn of workers to their Jobs. The
cooperation Of employers Of labor, of
agencies Of public information, Of Or
ganized and unorganized labor, and of
social service agencies in building up
and using this system will aid in re-
covery. All offices will have like
standards and objectives. The supply
of labor can flow through them and
the job needs of employers can be
circulated. Thus machinery will be
at hand and in operation to transfer
workers promptly from depressed areas
to those which can best absorb them.
Mediation.-It is essential to a
democracy that its workers develop

number of weeks of benefit should be
limited and bear a definite relation
ship to the amount Of contributions
made or the premiums paid. Premi-
umS may be paid wholly by the en-
ployer or by the employer and en-
ploye contributing. but the cost should
be assessed as one Of the industrial
hazards for which industry itself must
provide.
Reserves Built Up.
Industry built up reserves for pay
ment Of dividends to tide investors
over the lean years, and it should be
looked to in the future to provide
for supplemental compensation to be
paid to workers out Of jobs through
no fault of their own. Economic in
security is one Of the major social
hazards of life in our Republic. 1t
is hazard for the individual fam
lily, for the community, which must
maintain family on charity or
poverty level and to the total indus
trial institution because Of the drying
up of purchasing power.
Wage earners are interested in un-
employment insurance and also in the
signs pointing to greater cooperation
in the future between the United
States Labor Department and the
Labor Departments Of the different
States. This should be of value to
the country'S wage earnerS, employers
and the general public 1t serves to raise
standards to a desirable common level
and to develop a Government policy
in regard to labor. from which the
Republic, the individual wage Garner.
employer, investor and taxpayer will
all benefit.
Conferences, in different sections of
the country, looking toward greater
Federal and State cooperation have
been held within the year and others
are planned. The conference method
Of approach to decide on policies and
make plans for the future should
bring satisfactory results in the field
of labor legislation. 1t makes for
efficiency and greater harmony. 1t
serves to reconcile possible differences
between wage earners and employers
through the adoption of an easily
understood program to bring quicker
and more beneficial results. 1t is
desirable that the sovereign States
concur in positive action if sound

shall be. and what, above an absolute
minimum the benefit rates shall be
and how long they shall be paid.
The Wagner-Lewis bill provides an
excellent way to raise Treasury funds,
because the Government has been
paying out money for unemployment
relief through emergency relief, public
and civil works projects and other
measures designed to stimulate activ-
ity along needed and useful lines and
at the same time to increase purchas-
ing power. These expenses have been
made necessary largely because there
are no unemployment insurance funds
in this country.
Nationwide System.
With more than 30 State Legisla-
lures in session this year and next,
great progress can be made If Con-
gress passes the Wagner-Lewis meas
ure. for then the States will have an
increased incentive to enact laws set
ting up unemployment insurance re-
serves within their boundaries. 1t
should make possible the establish
ment of practically Nationwide sys-
TEN within two or three years. The
Wagner-LeWis measure is designed to
remove the competitive costs between
States so that these will be equal for
all employers in the industry.
Unemployment insurance would In
the future take the place Of the bread
line or other charities as systematic,
honorable method of tiding over a
slump period for those who want work
and lack it. No one has yet found a
cure for unemployment. although We
are experimenting in that direction
under the national recovery act.
In urging unemployment insurance
I realize that its adoption would not
mean the throwing up of economic
bulwarks for all wage earners. Prop
erly safeguarded it would. however,
constitute a certain definite measure
of security for many workers and their
families. This is a social as we'll as
an industrial problem and the cost
should be spread as widely as possible.
The fund should be collected from
fair but not excessive premiums, and
should be safeguarded so that it will
be adequate for the heavy drains Of
possible widespread period Of unem-
ployment. There should be definite
and fairly long waiting period. The

stress such as these, 1t Is essential
that wage earners and employers
agree with each other quickly and
with justice. Justice, clear thinking,
recognition of the human values in

sides. can avoid unnecessary clashes
which tend to slow up the recovery
process. The Cancellation Service Of
the department Is working closely
and in complete cooperation with
the National Labor Board to adjust

Elements reached in the atmosphere
OF conference may gradually solve
many disputed points by use of mutual
sanctions involved in judicial pro-
ceedings and that sound precedents
may be established for the practice
of justice in this new field.

More than half of the payments were
