MADRID, Jan. 25.-(IP)-The Na-
tion-wide extremist movement to'
establish a proletarian dictatorship
appeared to have collapsed today
under the Government's policy of
stern repression, although serious
labor strikes continued at Malaga,
Sevilleand Valencia.
Hundreds of arrests were made
throughout Spain, and the police
and military forces were, inreadi-

Declare Strike.-
A general strike was declared at
Lerid, and at Cordoba 4,000 indus-
trial workers walked out.
S Valencia extraordinary heavy
mil ary precautions failed to pre-
vent rioting. One civil guard was
wounded. The s t r i k e r s wrecked
and burned a street car and two
S.uto busses. D is p a t c h es from
towns near Cordoba indicated a
more serious movement.
In Beve troops occupied the

ECONOMIST TELLS
OF ENGLISH PLAN
Mary Gilson Compares Brith
Unemployment With U.S.
Comparing the British system of
caring for its jobless with the in-
activity of our government in these
matters, Mary Gilson, of the Uni-
versity of Chicago economics de-
partment last night advocated un-
employment insurance as the bet
means of "breaking our breadlines"
in a lecture at Natural Science au-
ditorium.
"Many different kinds of unem-
ployment insurance are offered, for
our observation," Miss Gilson s'aid.
"We have the opportnity to study
these experiments as they are
working in England, Germany and
Switzerland. Unemployment insur-
ance was introduced into England
in 1911, not as a political measure,
but because of general dissatisfac-
tion with existing conditions. The
burden of payment is shared by the
worker, the employer and the gov-
ernment. Since 1920 the govern-
ment has been forced to extend

benefits to unemployed whose in-
surance had run out. In 1930, the
MacDonald government had placed
these people in a separate class.
The two payments have become
very confused to the foreign ob-
server."
The chief argument against the
British "dole" Miss Gilson said, is
that it demoralized the worker. She
admitted that the British workers
were demoralized. "But," she said,
"not because of unemployment in-
suran e but because of unemploy-
I ment."

Local Theatre to Begin Series
With Film Depicting
Life of Mozart.
German talkies will be introduced
ipto Ann Arbor at the Whitney'
theatre Sunday, with the presenta-
tion of "Die Foersterchristel" or
"The Forester's Daughter," a pic-
ture based on the life of Wolfgang
Nozart, the great German com-
poser. This offering will mark the
beginning of the regular presenta-
tion of German films by the thea-
tre.
Ann Arbor will be the smallest
city in the country possessing a
German talkie theatre. The small-
est at the present time is Cincin-
nati. In Detroit the pictures have
been offered with a large measure
of success by the Little Cinema
theatre. The shows have been very'
popular in other cities not only be-
cause of their novelty but because
of the excellent productions put
by UFA and other companies. The
German screen boasts a number of
excellent actors including Emil
Jannings late of Hollywood. Mar-
lene Dietrich was procured by the
American magnates from UFA.
Two shows will be offered nightly
at 7 and 9 o'clock at the Whitney
and Saturday and Sunday matinees
also are planned. In addition to
the German features a program of
short subjects in English will be
offered. The pictures will be pre-
sented under the direction of Louis
Gomberg, '31L, who will act as man-
ager of the theatre for the produc-
tions.
Performances will be offered at
the same prices prevailing in other
local theatres. Among the shows the
Whitney plans to bring here are
"Zwei Menschen" (Two Souls),
"Danton," "Die Lustige Weiber von
Wien" (The Merry Wives of Vienna)
and the popular "Zwei Herzen inM
Drei-Viertel Takt" (Two Hearts in
Three-Quarter Time). Invitations
are being sent to 150 prominent
residents for the opening perform
