CHANGE = SS || WORLD! By MICHAEL GOLD L. BERGOFF, head of the Bergoff Detective Bureau, has come up to queer that swell expose Eddie Newhouse was running in the Daily Worker of the activities of the strikebreaking detective agencies in the country. Perhaps Bergoff’s clipping bureau ‘sent him the files of the “Daily” with Newhouse’s soathing articles. Now I can see that this scabherder and strikebreaker, with the psychology of a store- keeper, must have said to himself: “What? Another guy chiseling! What the hell, if this bimbo can make money writing for them news- Papers, why should I let him get the rake-off?” So the king-pin of the strikebreakers in his New York headquarters sat down to expose him- self for the capitalist press—at so much per “expose.” The Strikebreaker Confesses ERGOFF, with the frankness of a moron and the ethical blindness of a shyster lawyen sat down to write the story of how he helps to break the strikes of workers, how he supplies the trusts and companies of capitalism with armies of murderers and scabs, and to explain to an attentive and sceptical world the neglected importance of strikebreak- ing as a factor in our industrial system. With a charming modesty, Bergoff refers to himself as the fore- most strikebreaker in America today. Workers are very glad to hear this. They always thought that the honor was shared equally by the A. F. of L. and the Roosevelt government. But it appears they were mistaken. Bergoff is the boy who brings home the bacon to the U. 5. Steel Corporation and the Cotton Textile Association. The poor misguided working class may have thought that strike- breaking is the equivalent of murdering your own mother or stealing from the blind. You’d imagine a guy would keep quiet about the way he helped murder twenty-six strikers in McKee’s Rocks or broke the kings. But not Bergoff. After all, the murder was officially sanctioned by the Government. Nobody was ever brought to trial on charges of homicide. He received instead congratulations from the mill owners and the public officials for his loyalty to the nation and his civic up- rightness. This is a very instructive lesson for workers to draw. Under capi- talism, if in a moment of insanity you shoot a man, the State exacts the supreme penalty for breaking its laws—you burn in the chair. But if you murder twenty-six strikers, if you do this with premeditation, if DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1934 FLASHES and Bio graphy of Knute Walsted, 7th Workers-Farmers United Front Yiscussion Is | CLOSEUPS By LENS | IN NOVEMBER 6, there will be | flashed upon the screen of the |Cameo Theatre the world premiere |of a Soviet film. Dziga Vertov's long-awaited “Three Songs About | Lenin” will open in New York City |some 24 hours ahead of its open- | ing date in Moscow, U.S.S.R. For | several months “Three Songs About Lenin” has been withheld from public presentation so that its first | showing might coincide with the | anniversary of the Russian Revolu- | tion. The great Soviet movie pro- |; duction trust, Meschrapomfilm, | considers “Three Songs” its con- tribution to the celebration of the | 18th year of the exist new world. A new film by Dziga Vertoy is something about which I claim the Tight to become unusually enthu- | Siastic. For many years now I have been repeating that Vertov is the most significant director thinker in the Soviet cinema. Para- doxically enough, I have been say- ing this despite the fact that the only film by the leader of the “movie-eye” school ever to reach | this country, “the Man With The | Camera,” was but a stack of rough | notes and calculations in which the | author was merely beginning to evolve a method des‘ined to become |the most important one in the his- tory of the film. But we have seen some products |of Vertov’s teachings: “Shanghai Document,” Turksib,” “Spring.” We know that Vertov has freed the film from the literary and theatri- cal trappings which Soviet cinema- tography inherited from the bour- geois film. No actors, no artifice, no illusion. The movie camera is the great documentary revealer that must plunge headlong into the tur- bulent currents of life itself, must become a fearless visual reporter, must expose, must unearth, must praise and condemn. “We raust transfer the cinema from the arena of the stage to the arena of life itself,” says Vertov. And that is of pivotal importance to all workers in the revolutionary and | Candidate for Governor of S. D. Life of Hardship and Toil on Western Farms 'NUTE WALSTAD was born in 1871 in Fillmore County, Min- nesota, of Norwegian parents. In Norway, his mother had lived on ence Of @ the estate of a big landowner, with | | others of her class, known as “hus- mands,’ or serfs.

Their | dream of the “golden land” faded, jand in its place they faced the | stern, grim hardships of frontier life, When Knute was only nine his peasant mother died, and the fam- \ily was broken up. Poverty forced the boy to make his own way from that day on, he could find. Soon he drifted to the ports on the Great Lakes and worked at | everything from polishing brass to |\longshoreman. At the age of 23, | while working as a longshoreman, la strike of the longshoremen was called in Duluth. Knute took an active part in the strike. Scabs were brought in and protected by the guns of the National Guard. |The strike was broken and the mil- jitants were put on the blacklist. | Knute was one of these. | Golden Land of Wheat For a time this forced him to leave the waterfront.

And also, they were be- ginning to search for a way out. Joined Communist Party Knute joined the Non-Partisan League. Then the Farmer-Labor Party. Then the Liberty Party. But none of these organizations provided the solution for the farmers’ prob- lems. He felt that he was butting his head up against a stone wall. But in the election campaign of |1932 he heard William Z. Foster |speak on the Communist position |on the farm question.

At the same time the vicious anti-or- ganization injunction was with- drawn, Nominated as Candidate In July, at a United Front Con- ference, called in Aberdeen, S.

He took his brothers, Arthur and Ear- nest, into business with him. That gratified his old mother’s heart. He has his technique all worked out. He has thousands of men on his payrolls. He can speak with authority on the profession of butchery and terror that is his. He can be proud of the money that fills his and so ad infinitum. They “muscle” in, he complains, on the graft. ‘They supply the strikebreakers with the booze and the crap games and the whores that go with strikebreaking. The Board of Health officials also try to get in on the graft. Poor Bergoff! “Somebody is always playing politics,” he complains. But console yourself, King Scab, it’s the fate of the racketeer to be grafted from by other racketeers. * . . A Soul-Cure for a Strikebreaker ERGOFF has an unholy terror of “agitators.” His spies in the unions work on the conservative men. They play them off against the mili- tant workers. This is part of Bergoff’s new technique under the N. R. A. ‘The N. R. A. has forced him to change his routine. His firm now goes in for “strike-prevention” or stool-pigeoning, in simpler language, on @ vast scale. It is the militant workers who are always cooking Ber- goff’s goose. But if the King of the Strikebreakers would only think a moment, he would see that he will have a great deal to thank the militant workers for. In the near future, as he grows older, it is inevitable that the sins he has committed will come back to haunt him. The ghosts of dead strikers will arise to accuse him. He will sweat. His soul will turn sick. His money will become hateful to him. This happens to the best of murderers. Doesn't the Commissioner of Police also believe a murderer always goes back to the scene of his murders? The same will happen to that strikebreaker de luxe, P.L. Ber- goff. And here he can thank the militant workers, They'll cure his soul. They'll rid him of racketeers. In fact, they'll “cure” -his strike- breaking business so completely, and they'll “cure” his employers so completely, that all the King’s scabs and all the King’s thugs will never put it together again!

A Presented by the League of Work- ers’ Theatres, at the Civic Reper- tory Theatre. Reviewed by LEON ALEXANDER IHEATRE producers, playwrights and critics have grown gray over the problem of abolishing, literally or figuratively, the proscenium arch which stands like a wall of fog be- tween the audience and the per- formed play. But last Sunday night an impudent, cocksure little puppet with a broad Yiddish accent ac- complished-this giant task without an effort. Of course, he was among his “own” people; his problems were their problems, his enemies, their enemy. He was an old friend. He shared his troubles with his audi- ence, and they took him warmly to their collective heart. The puppet plays were the high point of an evening of productions by workers’ threatre organizations affiliated with the League of Work- ers’ Theatres.

It had simpler, homelier, and therefore more af- fecting moments. Unluckily, the comrades of the I. W. O. were not equal to their task. The dancing of the “Natur- freunde” group had freshness, and, in the second number, at times a true dramatic power. As to the Unity Theatre. This is the second performance of theirs I have seen.
