The | unit buro could find no way of solv- ing the problem of its members | dropping out and how to establish its leadership over the workers in | that neighborhood and in the shops in its territory.

Several workers in this organization, expressed their desire to join the Party. Still the unit mantained that nothing could be done to check the decline of the Party membership.

An Inspired French Film By DAVID PLATT Poil de Carotte (The Red Head) a, French film directed by a newcom- | er, Jules Duvivier, now playing at the| | Europa, is one of the most remark-| able films that has come out of Eu-/ | rope in many moons, | | Influenced greatly by the Soviet) | cinema, the director of this film has »|made a powerful and deeply moving | | picture of the life of a sensitive,| much abused the rebellious child un-| der the heel of a tyrannical and} stupidly provincial family, whose ig-| norance and folly drive him to at-| tempted suicide. | The film also reveals a child actor| of genius who contributes an inspired | performance. | As an indictment of provincialism, Poil de Carotte deserves high praise. No film in recent years outside the Soviet Union has revealed so vividly, | the ruins of bourgeois family and so- cial life, and few films have ever achieved the permission in rhythm and unity of purpose, as this one. There are scenes of peasant life strongly reminiscent of Elsenstein’s “Old and New,” in fact the whole at- mosphere of the film is close to the approach of the Soviet films, Noth- jing remotely resembling Hollywood theatricality is evident in Poil de Ca- | rotte, The life of the boy is in direct con- | trast to the decadence of the family. Space forbids to say more about this | owerful film, except that it is su- | perbly acted by two or three of the finest performers ever seen on the | screen. By all means go see Poil de| | Carotte | NEW YORK.—Although on the) lists of the Home Relief Bureau and| a member of the Seymour Dramatic) Club and Saint Columbo Church, | Young, an Irish worker of 311 W. 26th St., could get no aid from any of these organizations and was evicted last week. answered that he was acquainted only | with Comrades T. and C, (both party members) and did not know much about the “other workers”. Here was a case when @ leading unit buro member knew only the members of the Party fraction in a mass organi- zation, but was isolated from the en- tire non-Party mass of workers in his own organization.

Last month prior to the Hunger | March, practically all relief had| ceased. About 25,000 unemployed were laid off from relief jobs.

Nevertheless the county officials excused their stopping of re~- lief by saying they were unable to float a loan for that purpose. The committee leading the hunger | march points out that the 5,000 jobs is a drop in the bucket and would not aid all those laid off. ‘The partial victory is spurring on | the workers and farmers to intensify their struggles to force action on all the demands presented by the hunger marchers, Sections of the county| never inyolved in unemployed strug- gles, were stirred to action by the movement.
