1t is the influence of the bourgeois
idea that the press is just an organ
for disseminating news, it merely
gives the news that is fit to print,
that it is mainly concerned with
spot news" Action, struggle and
organization-thiS is what the cap
italists and their press fear most.
But this is precisely what the work
ers need most! This is precisely
what the Daily Worker must do in
its agitation and propaganda to
arouse the workers for struggle and
organization.
Indeed, we must take to heart,
the statement OF Comrade Stain
that
''The press is the only weapon
with whO5e aid the Party every
day speaks to the working class
in the language of the Party. You
cannot find in the world another
such flexible apparatus as the
press and there are no other
means through which the party
can so well connect its theological
threads with the working class
TEN years of our Communist
Daily Worker! Ten years of in
cessant struggle to keep alive! But
ten years of growing support and
growing influence. How encourag-
ing and inspiring is the fact that
over $4,000 workers contributed in
the recent successful Daily Worker
drive. How Lenin valued these
penny contributions for the revolu-
tionary press in old Czarist Russial

tons which constantly threaten it
from all sides. But no political
party, If it desires D avoid adven-
turist tactics, can base its activities
on expectations of such outburstS
and complications. We must pro-
coed along our road, and steadily
carry out our systematic work, and
the less we count on the unexpected,
the less likely are we to be taken by
surprise by any historical turn"

eating the ripening of the econom-
ic crisis in America. The sharp
ening antagonism between Amer
lea and England, the struggle for
markets and raw materials and,
finally the colossal growth of arm
aments-that is the second por-
tent of the approaching crisis. I
think the moment is not far off
when a revolutionary crisis will
develop in America, that will be
the beginning of the end of world
capitalism as a whole. 1t is es-
sential that the American Com
munist Party should be capable of
meeting that historical moment
fully prepared and of assuming
the leadership of the impending
class struggle in America. Every
effort and every means must be
employed in preparing for that,
comrades.
THIS analysis of the leader of the
L world proletariat has been fully
confirmed by the course of events
since 1929. This analysis places
great historical responsibilities and
duties upon the shoulders of our
Communist Party. To carry them
out we must indeed with real Boil

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. l QN.S0
Motion picture fans have torn ties,
scarfs and even coats from their
film idols, but Ginger Rogers will
give them the biggest thrill of all.
When the red-headed star re-
turns from her honeymoon with
Lew AyreS, she has decided to
give her admirers actual sample
Of the green chantilly lace from
which her wedding gown was cut.
The fans are indebted for this
good luck to the fact Ginger
bought the entire bolt of lace from
a New York importer. At the
time she thought only Of protect
ing her wedding gown from imi-
tation.
But now she has % yards left
over, and she has decided to dis
tribute them among her followers.
The lace will be cut into small
squares to form as many souvenirs
as possible.

quests will receive consideration

BEHIND THE ARS ACTING IS YEARS OF REAL CHARACTER STUDY
Jock Whitney Pouring Money
To Color Becky Sharp

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. / Q.N.S0. .
For the first time today, Holly
wood realized the amount Of
money that young Jock Whitney
is willing to pour into his first
feature length color picture,
Becky Sharp"
According to orders issued at
the RKO studio today, two weeks
of color tests will be made before
a single foot of the film is shot.
Working eight hours a day, the
cameraman will conduct exhaus-
tive makeup and costume tests
of Miriam Hopkins, Billie Burke,
Elsie Ferguson, Frances Dee and
every player in the cast. The
players will be shot singly and
in groups.
In addition to this, every set
will be photographed for color
reproduction.
Watching every step Of the
process will be Director Lowell
Sherman and Artist Robert Ed
mond Jones, who'll act as color
expert.
When they give the final okay,
not. a costume, makeup or set can
be changed during the making Of
the picture.

Have You Got a
Movie Voice?

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. Ito the
hundreds of people who have
wondered: Have I a good micro
phone voice." Douglas Shearer
brings interesting news.
Mr.. Shearer, sound expert for
the M. G. M. studio, says you can
determine this at home without
expense, and by a very simple
test.
Simply stand behind a curtain
and get someone, preferably a
stranger, to listen to your voice.
II it Is pleasing to his ear, it
will record we'll through the
microphone.
This test" declares Shearer,
"is as accurate as any mechani-
cal method outside of a real
studio. The chief difference be-
tween the human ear and the
microphone is that there is a
brain behind the ear. A brain
that reacts to visual as well as to
auricular impressions. Standing
behind the curtain removes the
one and apprcximates the micro
phone"
To be entirely on the safe side
then subtract 10 per cent from
your voice charm. This for the
margin Of imperfection in the re-
cording Of the man-made ear.
