It is clear at a glance that
this Bill is directly in the in
terests of the vast majority
of the people Of the country.
1t applies to every worker
right now. 1t is intended to
go into effect Immediately.
1t is administered by the
workers themselves, prevent
ing the wholesale graft and
waste of official capitalist re-
lief. 1t places the burden of
the crisis on the backs of the
rich, the capitalists and their
yoUernment.
This unemployment and
social insurance is the most
crying immediate need of the
American working class.
In every trade union local,
in the Socialist Party locals,
in every kind of workers or
ganization, tn e question
should be raised-how shall
the workers find a way to
end the frightful insecurity
of joblessness which faces
every wage laborer under
capitalism. The question of
delegates to the January ST
Congress should be raised.
The immediate answer to
the needs of the jobless and
the entire working class is
in the Workers Unemploy-
ment Insurance Bill.
The fight for social and
unemployment insurance is
a fight against the life to
which capitalism dooms the
working class, life of STAR
walton and uncertainty. 1t is
part of the revolutionary
fight to end forever the
whole system of capitalist
exploitation by organizing
the masses to fight the capt.
talist way out of the crisis.
It is part of the fight fer
the revolutionary way out of
the crisis.

New York Senator Black,

a Congressional "blue book" pub

Of The Review of Reviews:
"The individuals who hold ex-
travagant private contracts, and
who receive extra allowances which
exhaust the revenues of whole
states, are the same who lend their
credit to keep up the credit Of the
postoffice department, who furn-
ish funds to pay off the debts and
relieve the embarrassments of its
chief officers, who advance large
sums to enable another of its Off

ing the surroundings with taste
and in a different manner from
everyone else's on the street, the
house, regardless of it's looks, will
take on Individuality.
Let US consider, for example, the
typical American small house with
q front porch raised several steps
off the surrounding grade. Many
owners Of such homes make the
mistake of planting a row of some
dwarf evergreens or low growing
shrubs. The house becomes formal
and monotonous to look at, and
the paintings serve no purpose.
The planting usually represents
the gardener as one who never
raises his eyes very far off the
ground. He never sees his entire
house, but just a blank space I'M

There is little advancement in
this sort of planting from the day
when row of cannas and ele-
plant ears constituted the last
word in the right thing to do.

On the other hand, the same type
of home can be made more beau
tiful by sensible planting.
First, you can start with frame
for the house by planting two
trees. These will give shade and
soften the outlines.
Next some vines for over the

The shrubs should be varieties
that will grow high enough to

Flowering varieties are of less
importance in the front planting

the outstanding actress on the
screen, in "Spitfire". Dressed in
bingham, her hair flying in the
wind, hurting epithets, loving like

"Spitfre" is said to provide Miss

her brilliant career.
In the picturization of the Broad

you believe in her.
AS Trigger, she lives with her
drunken father in a small cabin in
the Carolina mountains. George
Fleetwood and John Stafford, two
engineers working on nearby con-

Fleetwood loves her because he can
see beneath the surface of her tur-

depths of her soul, which, despite
all outer indications to the CEN

knows that she secretly spends

Stafford is attracted solely by her

But Despite Propaganda Film May Be One Of Years Best

NEA Service Staff Correspondent
HoiIywood--Hollywood's attack
upon Hitlerism-wfthout a mon
ocie.
That, In brief, Is a description Of
George Arliss' new filfn. THE
House of Rothschild."
without a doubt, this Is the
greatest piece of propaganda ever
put on the silver screen. From
start to finish 1t is million dol
lar glorification of the Jews. And.
needless to say, II is beautifully
done.
For once a producer really had
his heart in his work. Hollywood
long has been antagonistic to Hit
Ter because of his campaign
against the Jews. This production
is the outgrowth of that antagon-
ism.
However, the picture is far. more
than 1000 feet of propaganda. It
lis certain to be one of the out
standing films Of the year and is
by far the best picture ever made
by Arliss. Furthermore, 1t robs
Arliss of his monocle for the first
time.
Certainly this film never will be
shown in Germany. But 1 am pre-
dieting right now that 1t will do
record breaking business in this
country. Historically correct in ev-
cry detail, 1t contains such high en-
tertainment value that its propa-
ganda value sinks to secondary im-
portance.
Now q Red Head
1t seems a bit like going to ex-
tremes, but Bette Davis refused to
wear red wig In her new picture.
"Of Human Bondage" Instead,
she insisted upon having her own
hair dyed red. More realistic was
her comment.

STRAND

Jimmy The Gent" the Warner
Bros picture starring James Gag
ney, will be the feature attrac-
ton at the Warner Strand thea
ter for three-day run beginning
today.
The picture is based on the hi
larious comedy romance by Laird
Doyle and Ray Navarro and con-
Germs two crooks who are both
trying to expose the other to inn
press the girl they both love.
The story unveils in humorous
vein the unique racket of heir
chasing, that is, the hunting down
of lost heirs in order to inherit
unclaimed estates. And the two
notorious heir chasers, James Gag
ney and Alan Dinehart, do not
stop at bribing persons to act as
heirs and coaching them into per-
jured testimony.
Bette Davis is the feminine lead
opposite Cagney> and the girl over
whom Cagney and Dinehart do
battle foy her love. Alice White,
Allen Jenkins and Mayo Methot
are said to supply much of the
comedy element although the fast
talking and fast acting Jimmy al
ways turns up with his share.
The romantic angle Is not neg
lected and is supplied by two
couples, Cagney and Miss Davis
and Allen jenkins and Miss White.
The companion feature Is You
Can't Buy Eeyerything" starring
May Robson.
Reminiscent perhaps of Hetty
Green, Miss Robson portrays a
woman who. Tilted by a young
banker In her youth, has two
thoughts-to become the richest
woman in the world and to get re-
venge. She. pinches pennies, sends
her crippled son to a free cline.
all to save for the great day.
She finally has her chance,
through stock manipulations, to
wreck the lover of her youth, only
to find that her son and the
daughter of the banker are in love.
In an intense dramatic scene
she learns that mother-love comes
above the love of money, and n
gripping climax solves her prob
lens.
Lewis Stone plays Burton, the
bankcr-loyer, and youthful Jean
Parker enacts his daughter, with
William Blackwell as the woman
financier's son.
