 Work on "Rebecca'
TO BE SHOWN AT DREAM
 THEATRE, FRIDAY NIGHT .

The sight of motion picture con- pany at work in Hollywood arouses no more comment than the sight of a group of automobile workers would in Detroit; but away from Hollywood and on location, it is a different matter
 In Santa Cruz, California, the ex- terior scenes for the Fox production, "Rebecca Of Sunnybrook Farm were filmed The problem of how to handle the crowds of curious who gathered around to watch Marian Nixon and Ralph Bellamy enact the romantic love scenes became a ser iouS one for Director Alfred San tell
 In Hollywood when the assistant directors blow their whistles as a signal for silence, everyone knows what it means and acts accordingly. Sound pictures, and their rigid necessity for absolute quiet, are an old story now. But not in Santa Cruz. There, each arrival or visit ors had be to carefully instructed when to be quiet and when they could laugh and talk to their hearts content. Yet, even with such pre- cautions, many scenes were ruined time and again by some off-scene exclamation during a dramatic mo- ment, or uncomfortable laughter while a bit of comedy was in pro- gress.
 Miss Nixon and Bellamy, realiz- ing the strangeness of the whole thing to the visitors. tried not to make objections to the many inter ruptions and patiently did each ruined scene over until a perfect take" was secured After the first and second day, however, the nativ- es of Santa Cruz had mastered the meanings of the whistles and acted their parts of audience" with the experience of regular studio work CTS

Much common sense or tact.
Yet every time she lays an egg
She cackles forth the facu.
A rooster hasn't GOT a lot
Ofintellect to show,
But none the less most ROSTERS have
Enough good senes to crow.
The busy little bees they buzz,
Bulls below and COWS moo.
The watchdog barks, the gapder
quacks
And doves and pigeons COO.
The peacock spreads his tail
and Quakes.
Pigs squeal and robins sing,
And even serpents know enough
To hiss before they sting.
But man, the greatest masterpiece
That nature could devise,
Will often stop and hesitate
Before he'll advertise.

Workers Council
W. P. A. Series

On the whole, the Works Pro-
gress Administration is either mis-
understood or not understood at
all. A vague idea exists that from
somewhere huge sums of money
will be passed out to get people off
relief, to bring back prosperity.
This program of the Government
spending is just as misunderstood
by Negroes as by any other citi-
zen. And Negroes, perhaps more
than many others, must know alb
out these proposals.
To afford this opportunity, the
Workers Council offers the WPA
Series of weekly meetings to be
held at the Phyllis Wheatley WV.
CA, 102 21st Ave. N. Represen-
tatives of the various functions
win present their own angle of the
WPA Project. An open forum pc

NEW YORK n Discrimination
against Negro longshoremen by
the international Longshoremen's
Association has caused the organ
ization Of two strong, independent
longshoremen's unions in New Or
leans, according to Robert Fran
els. writing In the December issue
IF The Crisis. One of the inde-
pendent unions is colored and the
other white. Mr.. Francis asserts
that they handle ninety per cent
Of the longshore work in New Or
leans. and that the international
Longshoremen's Association, affili-
ated with the A. F. Of L., has call
ed a strike of its few workers on
the docks solely as an effort to
break up the independent unions.
The writer asserts that the colored
longshoremen in New Orleans have
had disappointing experience IN
the past with the LA, and pre-
fer to organize Independently. At
the time when the Liza. was the
strongest in New Orleans, with
both colored and white members,
the colored members We're said to
have received so many raw deals
that they, with independent white
longshoremen, withdrew and took
over practically all the work on
the river front. The Liza. is now
accusing these independents of be-
ing strike breakers"
Another article in the December
crisis is ETHIOPIA at Geneva" by
Dorothy Deter, who gives an eye
witness account of the dramatic
moment in the League of Nations
when italy was accused of agrees
sion and when MussoIini's dele
gates to the League left the hall
when the Ethiopian delegate be
gan to speak. The December cri-
Sis also contains a Christmas sto-
