intolerable burdens of the crisis on the backs of
the working class, the poorest section Of the popu-
laton?
YESTERDAY Roosevelt defended the capitalist
4 system.
"No wise man." he said 'has any intention of
destroying what is known as the profit motive be-
cause by the profit motive we mean the right to
work to earn decent livelihood for ourselves and
families"
What miserable mockery this is of the plight
of the masses of the misery of the 900 job
less!
The workers right to work" and the Morgan
Rockefeller right to work'-for profit! The prop
ertyless worker and gigantic Wall Street Millionaire
apprehension lovingly Roosevelt wants them
beth to have equal rights"l
Under capitalism, the working class has no
rights but the right" to sell itself in wage slavery
to the property classes, who control the means OF
production and through them, the means of life.
Roosevelt is the leading defender of this hdeous
system which he DISCUSSES with his phrases about
Security" This profit motive Is driving the
country TO deeper crisis, TO war and fascist
ton! s-f" 80
But under the New Deal, under the capitalist
system which Roosevelt defends, there can never
be any security for the ma jority of the popua-
ton who must sell themselves to the employers
fer wages. AS long the working class does not
control the government and the economic means
Of life through its class rule then life will
be hell of crisis and starvation for the entire
telling population
Yesterday, Roosevelt showed himself more than
ever the enemy Of the maszes-the leading agent
of the Wall Street capitalists
Yesterday, Roosevelt, dared to talk Of the power
of the ovsr-privilsged" in the government What
cynicsr1 this is!
Does not Roosevelt himself hold almost daily
conferences with the leading wall Street bankers
and 1Gu7trislst5?

Woodring wrote, the Army re-
cruited, conditioned, equipped and
modified more men than we re-
cruited in the Spanish American
war, and we did it so quietly ano
efficiently that few people in the
country realized what was happen

Brunettes Will Have An Edge
On Blondes In Color Films

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 21.-Nat-,
ural color will soon be living on
every screen in the country and
when this new rush of color comes
very shortly now it is more likely
to make new stars than it is to
ruin the popularity Of any present
favoriteS.
When the talking picture came
into being a few years ago many
Hollywood stars we're toppled
from their thrones, but many
silent stars stayed to be the most
popular of the new era leaders.
Greta Carlo, Gary Cooper,
Norma Shearer, Marion Davies
and Richard Arlen are among
those who emerged triumphant
from the sound revolution.
The brunettes are going to have
the edge when all motion pictures
are made in color and that it will
be very soon if other directors
take a tip from Henry Hathaway
and refuse to blind audiences with
vivid colorS. Hathaway is play
ing down color in Walter
Wanger's The Trail of the Lone
some Pine" and that is why it is
called natural color.
AS makeup man on this produc-
tion is Sam Kaufman, veteran
with the grease paint and the
man who ranks as No. in color
cosmetology.
Those who will be most beauti-
full in color include Sylvia Sidney
who is heading the cast Of "The
Trail Of the Lonesome Pine" He
says she has perfect olive coloring
and is an outstanding brunette
type.
"Claudette Colbert is exception
ally beautiful in color" kaufman
declared. He also named Kath-
arine Hepburn, Kay Francis,
Frances Dee and Rochelle Hudson
on his list.
"The brunettes will gain most,
and the red-heads, for once in
their lives, will be known as
Such," he said.
Among the lighter haired ladies
kaufman named Mae West and
Billie Burke.
