films to be shown by the Little
Theater is THE Golem," current
attraction at the Ninth Street
house. The picture is a striking
depletion Of an old legend, that
of the great figure endowed
with life that served as protec-
tor of Prague's ghetto during
the Middle Ages, and it's star is
Harry Baur, probably the great
est actor of the European
screen.
Baur plays the mad Emperor

attempts to achieve the destruc-
tlon OF the great monster con-
ceiVed by a rabbi as a defender
OF his oppressed people. His
Characterization is one of power
and pleasing ruggedness; it is
a continually interesting Dor
trayal. Beauty is supplied by
Germaine Aussey in the role Of
the Countess Strada, the EN-
peror's lady friend. Mile. Aus
sey'S contribution includes at.
tractive acting, too, however,
and other polished efforts are
those of Roger Carl as the
crafty chancellor, Roger Du-
cheSne as an antique dealer and
Charles Dorat as the pupil Of
the Golem's creator who retains
the figure against all the EN-
peror'S pleadingS and torture.
"The Golem" is a capably
dire C t d, ably photographed
cinema offering a generous
quota of thrills as Ferdinand
Hart in the title role smasheS

Gene Ford Coming to Direct
1893 Going Native Revue

Having already assured Wash
ingtonians that Going Native"
will be benefited by the ex-
pert guidance and advice Of
world-famous dance director,
Chester Hale, the Loew's Capt.
tol management further insures
the success of this years all
local show with the announce
ment that Gene Ford will be
production chief.
This news should come as q
source of much pleasure for
both Going Native" aSpirants
and local fans who annually
cheer this revue. 1t was Gene
Ford who staged, produced and
directed each of the last five
Going Native" shows and who
was believed forever lost to this
venture when he was promoted
to Station WIN in New York
last year.
Prior to his new position, Mr..
Ford was manager for two years
at the Capitol Theater here
and came to that post after a
long association with the
famous Capitol in New York,
where he was a member of the
production staff.
While his duties at WIN, the
Loew radio station in New York,
will not permit Producer Ford
to move his residence here for
the duration of the Going Ma
tive" activities, he will regularly
commute between these two
cities, dividing his time between
his new radio productions and
his first love"-"Going Native"
1t was only after considerable
persuasion on the part of Di-
visional Manager Carter Barron
that WINS chief, Louis K. Sid
ney, agreed to split" Gene Ford
with Going Native" Gene will
arrive here Tuesday night for
the second night of additions,

TO KEEP YOM

Jewish Community Open
ing Atonement Day Serv-
ices at Sis P. M.

The Hendersonville Jewish COM
munity will begin to observe Yom
Kippur, Day of Atonement, at
els o'clock this evening, with a
Kol Nidre service at the temple.
J. J. Goldstein of Asheville will
be in charge.
An all-day service will be held
Wednesday, beginning at $50
a. M, and continuing until sun
set. All Jewish stores will be
closed.
"Yom Kippur," says a published
explanation and description of the
holiday, els the hottest and most
solemn day in the Jewish life. The
Jew on that day tears himself
away from the noisy world about
him, casts aside everything relat-
ing to his everyday life, renounces
all physical appetites and desires
and devotes himself entirely to his
soul, to thoughts upon the seri-
business of life and its ethical
problems, to the consideration of
mans proper relation toward his
Creator and his fellowman. 1t is
a day of fasting and prayers.
"Tbe fast begins at shutdown,
which ushers in the Yom Kippur
day, and lasts until the stars ap-
pear on the following day. For
more than "a hours it is COM
plete fast, not even drop of
water being permitted. The prin-
ciple of the fast is intended to
put the worshipper in a frame of
mind susceptible to the exalted
ideal of perfect righteousness.
The remarkable passage of the
Prophet Isaiah read in the syna-
gogue on Yom Kippur morning
contain a picture of the true kind
and the real purpose of the fast.

est and innermost spiritual life.

day cannot be conveyed by the
words of his Yom Kippur prayers
nor by his liturgical poems which

GREEN WARNS AGAINST
FEDERAL REGULATION

By ARTHEUR F. DEGREVE
HOUSTON, Texas, Oct. d.
(UP).-William Green, president
of the American Federation of la
Dor, yesterday bitterly attacked
John L. Lewis and his rival Com
mittee for Industrial Organiza-
ton, implying that it is "commun-
istic," and .roared warning
against further attempts by the
government to regulate the lives
Of, those WhoStoil. s.
Opening the Federation's 58th
annual convention in spacious
Sam Houston Coliseum, Green
charged that the national labor
relations board is CHASED" and is
an "ally Of the C.I.O." He prom
Used that fight would be waged
in the next congress not only to
amend the Wagner, under which
the board was created, but to
change the personnel of the
agency.
Vitriolic in his criticism Of the
CLIO. and the board, Green was
extremely conciliatory toward in
dustry. He reaffirmed the Fed
eration's acceptance of the prin-
ciple of private ownership of bust
ness and the right of Management
to earn a fair return on its in
vestment.
He invited industry in turn to
accept the Federation's "well de-
veloped. modern philosophy" Of
the right of workers to bargain
collectively and earn a decent
wage.
Green had the delegates and
the audience alternately laughing
and cheering as he ripped into
Lewis and his CLIO. His attack
evolved about statement Lewis
made before congressional COM
mittee in 1924 in which he warn
ed of a gigantic communistic plot
to overthrow the government.
Lewis said that two detectives in
the cred" campaign were CONVEX
sion of all craft unions into indus
trial unions and seizure of the A.
F. of L. with custer of its Off
cials.
"Isn't it strange, my friends,
that this man who prophesied that
the communists were going to seek
to destroy our craft unions and
establish industrial unions in
stead, to establish here in Amer
lea one big union, is now engaged
in leading a movement that has
for it's purpose that very objec-
tive" Green cried.
