F, of L. bureaucracy, aided by its inseparable thuggery, again demonstrated a wholesome fear and hatred of any worker fighting with- in its ranks for better conditions for the workers, instead of more profits for the bosses. At a regular meeting of Local 186.) Hotel & Restaurant Employees. A. F. of L., Boston, May 3rd 1929, Marks Whittier, recording secretary, was nominated for secretary-treas- urer-organizer and delegat> to the National Convention to be held in August at Kansas, Old-Time Labor Faker. The present secretary-organizer, A. F. Martel, an old-time labor faker and betrayer of the working | class, did not at all like the idea of having competition for his well paid, easy job. He took the floor and told the membership that Whittier could not hold office in this union; that Whittier himself knew why; that he had “kindly” refrained from saying anything before as he expected Whittier to decline the nominations. Whittier emphatically denied hav- ing committed any act that pre- vented him holding office. He de- manded that Martel state openly to the membership these accusations against Whittier. The Red Bogy. Being pushed, Martel told how he had found “Communistic” literature in the union office, but could not discover who ‘brought it there. Some time afterward he had Whittier “watched” and learned that he had brought it there. Quite recently some people called him up and told him (Martel) that a cook by the name of Whittier was mixed up with the shoe strikers who were anti-A. F. of L., and that Whittier should be “watched.” Whittier said “I am a Communist, and proud of it.” He explained to the membership present the great work the Communist Party is doing to better the condition of the work- ing class, and proved that every strike led by the Communists was victorious for the workers. He said further, “the Communist Party has pledged itself to continue fighting until the working class all over the world is free of bosses and their slavery. I am trying to the best of my ability to carry out that pledge.” Faker Martel was then challenged by Whittier to mention anyone who had worked or self-sacrificed more ,or even as much for the union as he (Whittier) had, Martel did not answer, A vote was taken, and Whittier’s | the next meeting, Confers with the “Red-Baiters.” At the next meeting, Faker Mar- tel told the membership he had con- ferred with the vice-president of the International Union, J.

Eleven years ago we got you the straight hours and six day week, then the Communists came in, broke up the union and see where you are today. “Brother Whittier does not want the office, no! it is the Communist Party who wants the position to break up our union, and Whittier, like a cur, has come here to do the dirty work! But we will not give you the chance this time Brother ‘Whittier, you can stay in the union if you behave yourself and keep your ‘Communistic’ stuff out of here; if not, we will put you out.” Whittier then got the floor and again explained to the membership the fighting, working class char- acter of the Communist Party. He bitterly denounced the stool-pigeon tactics of the business agent, A. F. Martel, and warned them that every member that fought for better con- ditions would get the same treat- ment. He told them that Com- munists do not go to the bosses to organize the workers, but Martel had gone only to managers and hotel owners, and always with ideas and suggestions as to how to make more profit with less expense for the bosses by cutting down the number of cooks and speeding up the rest of the help in the kitchen.

Martha Lapkina had been a hired | worker from her ninth year. From |her ninth year she worked on the land. She looked after the farm ani- mals, She suffered want. She | toiled. But she never lost heart, jand in her work and all her duties she was quick and alert. After the revolution she worked on the Soviet | farm at Konstantinovka. And there Martha would have passed the rest back being re- | quired. Martha had never thought about | the cinema. She had no time, and | she was so ignorant. When a photo- | graph was taken at the Soviet farm, | Martha came because they all came, and they were all flattered at the thought of taking part in it. And | this was what happened. They started taking the photo- graphs, but there was no heroine for the picture. The directors of The General Line for two months ran- sacked the railway stations, the lodging houses, the factories. They toured the villages. They summoned the women for inspection by pealing the churchbell. They examined them; they looked at thousands of faces. Reduced to despair, the producer, Eisenstein, even resolved upon a step utterly repugnant to his nature —he resolved to try using an actress for the part. Now began an in- spection of actresses. Nothing came of it. The actresses were insulted | when the first question put to them | was: “Can you milk cows, plough, | guide a tractor?” Proudly they | answered “No.”. And there the mat- | ter ended. The directors again be- | gan to search far and wide. Finally, from weariness, no doubt, they thought that they had found what they wanted. They began to take the photographs. And they saw that there was something wrong. At all events they took the photographs by preference from the back. And finally, one fine day, the heroine ... got tipsy, and did not turn up for the photograph at all. And then there entered the Soviet Kino, with her humble back, the modest and homely worker, Martha Lapkina. Martha had no wish to leave her home and go away with strangers. But she agreed for the sake of the money. She took her little boy, and set off on her wanderings together with the film company. What places one has to go to! From the first photographs it was clear that Martha was extremely re- sponsive and easily adapted herself to the requirements of the cinema. Eisenstein considers the most im- portant part of the work with the individual actor to be the observa- tion of the details of his or her natural behavior, The important thing is not rehearsing, but study- ing what the actor does instinctively, Afterwards these studies must be pieced together in the context re- quired for the particular task in hand. Something like the classical example of Dourof* with the hen which played the zither. It was not difficult to teach the hen to play the zither. The difficulty was to grasp and to turn to account the ordinary movements of the hen’s | feet when it was scratching up rub- bish. But Eisenstein is not Dourof, and Lapkina is not a hen.

You ought to see her face when the producer is explaining to her the task in hand; how every muscle of her face and body is re- laxed; how she is wholly absorbed in preparing herself for satisfying the requirements.

The agricultural dirc tor comes in. The money is re- covered. The agricultural director helps to put matters right. The peasants listen to his words. Martha’s face, with its high cheek- bones, is lit up with joy; the grey, slanting eyes are radiant. The simplicity and readiness with which Martha adapts herself to the required mood effaces with suspici- ous ease all the distinctions between an illiterate hired worker and a pro- fessional film actress. Fortunately for the latter, the laurels of the cinema are without interest for | Martha. She is back in her village, and it is doubtful whether the walls of our cinema studios will ever see | her again. She has even refused a position as work-woman at the Kino factory.
