“Our Union” is nothing of the sort, those who saw it here agreed| today. Despite previous misgivings of those who had seen “Deadline for] Action” the new film is strictly a trade union document. “Deadline for Action” had sought to solve both the nation’s domestic ills and set forth a foreign policy as ‘well, The blame was placed on monopolies. “Our Union” begins with the depression of the late 1920's, then traces the development and growth of the U. E. to the present time. It takes lusty swings at congress and at Senator Robert A.

Mr. Marzani served during the war with the Office of Strategic Services, but was convicted of giving false information in obtaining a state department job. Stating frankly that “my sympathies were with Soviet Russia,” Mr. Marzani went on to say that “I am not a member of the Communist party but my wife is and I'll take her Joyalty as an American to Anaconda Copper and Standard Oil.” These companies, along with the Chicago Tribune, he accused of “treason” during the war.
