GETS
REPORT Of j. s.
WAR ON CRIME
Cummings Says Suitable Bills
Will Soon Be Available
to Committees
BY international News Service

Moving in the government.
campaign against interstate pre-
datory crime, Attorney Genera
Cummings, in his annual report
to Congress today announced
that suitable bills and supporting
memoranda soon will be made
available to the committees. He
said:
"Study has been given to mat
ters Of proposed legislation.
Among these measures may be
mentioned:
Regulation Of traffic in ma
chine guns and other firearms;
prison escapes, including COM
plicity Of prison officers or en-
plOyeSi resisting and killing
Federal officer; interstate trans
pOrtatiOn Of stolen property;
SimplificatiOn of removing pro-
ceedings; escape from lawful
custody while awaiting trial;
waiver of indictment by grand
jury in certain criminal cases
and regulation of alibi de-
fenseS."
WORK PILES UP
The work of the Department of
Justice has been increased vastly,
Cummings declared.
Additional strain, he pointed
out, has been placed on the de-
partment by the extension of eX-
isting activities, among which are
matters relating to kidnapping and
racketeering.
Discussing kidnapping and extor-
ton in the section of the report
dealing with the Division of In
veStigation, j. Edgar Hoover, di-
rector, said that in investigating
these cases it was soon found that
it would be impracticable to re-
strict activities to those cases of
interstate scope.
Report of Prison Head
Sanfard Bates, chief of the
Bureau of Prisons, emphasized
the necessity of scientific treat
ment of prison inmates aimed at
returning as many as possible to
society in mental and physical
condition to resume normal life.
Bates advocated mental and
physical treatment that would
remove the handicaps from which
prisoners are suffering and equip
ping them with a vocation that
they resume their place in So
ciety.

Busy MIR. Cochran

Stephen Erlanger Cochran was
as busy as a Boy Scout doing his

Mr.. Cochran is scheduled to talk
to his Washington public over

organizing and placing in order
thoughts and ideas to shoot over

On Sunday night, if plans go as
expected, he will introduce the Ma

at a small reception.

Players will address the radio pub

Washington movie-goers will
have q chance to determine for
themselves whether Tarzan's mate
gwims in the altogether. This
sequence furrowed the forehead
of Will Hays studio censor and
finally he said. mo" M-G-M took
an appeal to a producer board
and they said o. K. So the shot
of the swimming under water
stays in.
I might add it is q very beau
tiful and artistic sequence but
the grapevine from Hollywood
says that Josephine McKim, an
accomplished mermaid, doubled
for Maureen O'Sullivan in this
portion of the picture.
Another odd thing about Tar
Ean and His Mate" 1t was di-
rected by Cedric Gibbons (hus-
band of Dolores Del Rio) and is
his first job at the megaphone.
isn't it curious that Mr.. Gibbons
who is an art director and de-
signer and the man who fash
ions and conceives those e.abo-
rate sets for Metro-G -Goldwyn pic
lures should draw an outdoor
feature to boss. Most Of the &C.
tion occurs in jungle backgrounds
with Johnny WeisSmuller swing
ing from tree top to tree top
with all the agility of a grace
ful ape.
Monkeys and lions, rhinoceros,
alligators and elephants do the
most amazing stunts in the new
Tarzan. You know you are being
hoaxed right up to the eyebrows
but you'll love the imaginative
ideas that go into this picture.
The Hollywood dispatches assert
1t took them four months to teach
a big monkey how to paddle down
a stream sitting on a log. It was
worth waiting four months to get.
If you don't get a giggle out of
this shot something is the matter.
Look for "TarZan and His
Mate" at Loew's Palace tomorrow.

woman in the Lonesome Luke"
comedies. That was back in 1915

that his settings and furnishings

will present during their tenth sea-
son, getting under way on April

pirate as they have been in the
past. He likes to point out that

$500 worth of furniture and art

such opulence if the play calls

THE WORKERS AND FARMERS FROM
USING UNITED MASS ACTION to better
their conditions.
Milo Rero, Walter Singler, C. C. Tai
bot, and other leaders Of the old-line farm
organizations such as the Farmers Unoin,
the Holiday Association and the marketing
cooperatives are another group of wolves
in sleeps clothing. While compelled even
to call strikes under pressure Of the rank
and file in their organizations, they have
upon every occasion without exception sold
out the farmers, calling off strikes against
the wishes of the farmers, very often on
the eve of victory.
All these false prophets and fake
messiahs play their part in putting across
the capitalist program Of RoOsevelt's New
Deal. They thereby help the big bankers,
insurance companies, monopolies and rich
landlords to intensity their robbery of the
toiling people.

REFORMIST POLITICIANS
AND MISLEADERS

Progressive" politicians such as La
Toilette, Norris, Frazier and LANCER speak
loudly against Wall Street, because they
represent the interests of the smaller cap
italists and rich farmers. The Frazier Bill
which proposes mortgage refinancing at
lower interest rates, offers no solution to
the poor and small farmers and the masses
Of tenants, because ruined farmers cannot
pay their debts anyway. It can only aid
the rich farmers and the mortgage sharks.
The Farmer Labor Party, the Socialist
Party, and the newly formed American
Workers Party leaders, such as Olson,
Lemke, Norman Thomas, Oscar Ameringer
and Music, make fldwery speeches and even
call for a change of system. But their
every act is directed toward PREVENTING

THE LAND WHERE THE
TOILERS RULE

In sharp contrast to the impoverish-
ment of the American farming population
are the conditions of the farmers in the
Soviet Union. Instead of misery and slav-
cry they are enjoying great happiness and
well-being. Seventy-five per cent of all
farm families have abandoned the indi-
vidual form of land cultivation and have
Joined in collective farms which embrace 80
per cent of the land. Together with their
brothers, the workers in the cities, and
with the aid of their Workers and Farmers
Government, they are building up a So
cialist society, eradicating hunger and op-
preston. The constant peace policy car
lied out by tie Soviet government has beer
the major factor holding off the war so
far.
However the Land of the Soviets is
hated by the capitalists of the entire world.
The toilers of the world must be ready to
defend the Soviet Union against any cap
italist attacks.

THE FARMERS BEGIN
TO FIGHT

With the sharpening of the crisis and
increased robbery by the banker class, the
American farmers have put up heroic re-
sistance. A huge number of successful
mass struggles have taken place in the last
three years for relief and against sheriff
sales and evictions. Particularly significant
have been the great farmers strikes
against the price robbery of the food mono
poles. In these struggles workers have
fought side by side with farmers like COM
rades in arms, establishing the beginnings
of powerfus class alliance against their
common exploiters and their government.

By his first act, the bank moratorium,

Roosevelt quickly followed this up with
