Native Land" describes, with
much factual detail culled from
the records of the LaFollette COM
mittee, the assaults made by
strike breaking ganga, the Ku
Klux Khan, labor spies, so-called
Law and Order groups and other
native Fascists against the Amer
lean labor movement during the
cninous days of the '30s. 1t is
frankly, unashamedly propaganda,
and it's sympathies are as indis-
putabie as the details of brutality
and oppression that it sets down.
1t is not a smooth and complete
ly -man-like example of mo-
ton picture making but it has a
savagery. power and persuasively
factual quality that are coldly i'm
pressive With the magnificently
eloquent voice of Paul Robson
speaking an accompanying COM
mgntary with quiet but passionate
carnestness, Native Land is not
to be denied as an impressive edi-
torial against incipient American
FaSciSm.
The chief interest in the pic
ture lies in point it brings up
concerning all forms of expression
in this day of total war which
is also a war of ideas. To a GER
tain extent the story told by ma
tive Son" is dated. Begun, as 1t
was, several years ago, it deals
with a state of affairs that took
place in the preceding decade.
Since Pearl Harbor we have been
chiefly concerned with other
things, including national soli-
darity. Is, therefore, a work that
brings up these ugly issues of the

ings since the WPB order but the
other companies are going right
ahead, although at reduced tenn
pc. They're not issuing so many,
but you're going to find the quality
greatly improved.
This week the Victor album,
"Strictly from Dixie" gets top
attention. You've probably heard
that radio program called THE
Chamber Music Society OF Lower
Basin Street" and therefore you
know about Henry Levine and
Linda Keene who produce the 1--WE
In this collection. The eight num-
beers are STRICTLY FROM DIXIE,
EHABRACEABLE YOU, GEORGIA
ON MY MIND, WAY DO w N
WONDER IN NEW ORLEANS,
SOMEBODY LOVES ME, SHINE,
SOMEONE TO WATCH OVER ME
and MOUND BAYOU.
Naturally, this is two beat Dixie
land jazz with tailgate trombone
and weaving clarinet, although one
or two of the performances seem
to have stopped over in the north.
The only two sides without vocals
are the title tune and "Shine,' ana
these get in solid white N'Orleans
groove. The other six faces have
Miss Keene singing, with the num-
Der, Somebody to Watch over Me, .
being entirely devoid of any feel
ing of swing. The only tune on
which Linda and the band both
are hot is Down Yonder in New
Orleans
Best of the Levine boys seems
to be the trumpet player. He blows
a really fine horn. Trombone is
worth hearing, particularly behind
some Of Linda's vocals, but the
piano seems a bit on the intellectual
side. AS for Miss Keene, she's a
good singer but on Mound Bay
ou' she's neither so intense nor
SO blue as is Helen Huunes on her
current Decca of the same name.
However, the collections is defi-
nitely above the average.
SINGLE STUFF
Fats Waller rings in his full band
to produce the Bluebird of 1--WE
NEED A LITTLE LOVE and JIT-
TERBUG WALTZ. Neither side is
hot, for on the first he's rather
sweet and slow in both his piano
slo and straight vocal, and as for
the second I've never yet heard any,
body swing in three quarter time.
But the Jitterbug Waltz will hold
attention as an oddly. Fats PLAYS
organ and the boys then do nicely
hitting hot rhythmic lickS.
A lot of people like Jan CARRIER
Back IN 1885 when he played for an
Omega cabaret dance at Chicago's
Savoy ballroom, several thousa1,c
Dusky americans jammed the joint
and the gals fought to get sJanf
autograph. All of which leads up t
two new platters released by tn
new Ellie company which special.
