tlons. IL is the SPOKESMAN ana leader
of the American workers, their mouth
piece giving voice to their demands
and needs. Without It the American
workers would be like a man without
a tongue. A revolutionary party and
an effective struggle cannot be thought
Of without such an organ.
Without It we would find II difficult
to recruit workers into the unions and
fighters into the party. The voice Of
the Workers Party could not reach
the masses without the DAILT
WORKER.
But in order that The DAILY
WORKER should function properly
and serve as a lever to raise the
masses to an understanding of the
aims of the proletarian struggle, the
masses must daily see It. and read it.
IL is imperative that II should reach
the workers. The responsibility to
distribute the DAILY WORKER rests
upon the party members. We must
accept this responsibility and live up

was dangerous. All the more must
you as a party duty boost the DAILY

W. H. JOHNSTON
DEFENDS UNITY
With MASTERS
All the Cooperation
Done BY Workers

The Federated Press is run
ming a series of articles on the
"B. e O." plan, which is the
result Of a conspiracy between
the management of the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad and
William H. Johnston, president
Of the international Association
of Machinists, to turn that or
ganlzation into a company
union" and become part and
parcel of the B. & o. system
with the exception, of course,
that the railroad owners keep all
the profits and the union work
ers do all the work.
No more vicious scheme than
this was ever foisted on any
section of the American trade
union movement. It is more
dangerous to the trade union
movement than the Chicago
Lands award. That at least is
open and unashamed in its at
tempt to smash the unions.
But this B. g. o. plan Of the ex-Sal
walton army drum thumper William
II. Johnston, is represented to be the
highest development Of trade union.
Ism, in the form Of DISQUALIFICATION
or If that term Is too unwieldy, let us
say that the union instead Of using
it's power to fight the boss for more OF
the product of the toll of it's members
actually lends itself to fasten the
shackles of wage slavery tighter on
their limbs and reduces the workers
to the status Of chattel slaves. Much
has been written Of the spectacle pre-
sented by the black slaves Of the
south who fought in the southern
armies during the civil war, but their
ignorance and the power Of the mas.
ters prevented them from choosing
the lesser of two evils. There is NO
such excuse for the treachery Of Will
lam H. Johnston. 1t is nothing else
but a clear case of selling out the
organized workers to the railroads.
The following article is the second
of the series. The first was a result
of Tom Tippet's interview with the
Glenwood Shopmen's co operating
committee. We are publishing this
apology of Johnston's secure in the
belief that his defense of the B. &.
o. system is the strongest Indictment
Of it and OF his own treason to the
working class.

DAILY WORKER
SPECIAL LOCAL
EDITIONS GROW
$4,000 in Three Days;
$4,000 for Next Week

No feature of the DAILY
WORKER activities has met
such instantaneous success as
the special local editions.
These editions of which the
complete front page carries
matter only Of interest to the
city for which they are printed
and in some cases carrying
inside pages, of news for local
interest-are now running at a
high peak.
Big Chicago Edition.
Wednesday night a special local
Chicago edition of 10000 to precede
a Foster-Gitlow campaign meeting at
which both candidates are to speak,
left the presses for a three-day sale and
distribution turnout the city. Thurs
/ day night has seen the special Illinois
state edition of 10000 and one of 5000
for Detroit.
The Detroit edition, leaving tonight
makes the second for this city that
Comrade Owens is putting on the live
wire map. This completes a record
of four editions of the DAILY WORK
Err totaling $4,000 in three days.
District eight of the Workers Party
has taken full advantage Of this
splendid means of campaign activity.
Milwaukee has already distributed
10000 of a 10000 Wisconsin edition.
Chicago received 10000 and tonight
sees the Illinois edition of 10000. Mil
waukee is laying plans for another
edition of 10000 and the Lake County
steel district one Of $4,000, making a
total of $4,000 for this district under
the leadership of the fighting Dane
Comrade Arne Swabeck.
| Two Eastern Issues.
Next week will see giant editions
going to two eastern cities. To pre-
cede the Foster meeting of October
10 in New York, this local will receive
the record special to date Of $4,000.
This will also make the third edition
for the local and district at whose
head is district organizer Chas. Grum-
bein and complete total Of $4,000
for one city. A record that shows the
lead over all locals.
Philadelphia makes its first special
of real size. The stamping ground
of clustering Butler is going to re-
ceive seed for the growth Of future
Communists.
Special Goes to Pittsburgh.
And to add fame to a state of in
famous record in labor annals during
the same week Pittsburgh will receive
a special of 1000 to continue the good
work. District organizer 1. Blanken-
stein for the territory is going to give
the home of steel a jolt.
The success achieved in all cities
that have seen these Red Specials
opens great possibilities for future
local editions for local campaigns in
and out of election season. Something
seems to have been started that is
going to be mighty hard to stop.

fine RESPONSE
TO APPEAL FOR
SACCO-v ANzETTI
500 Workers Pledge
Aid to Victims

Over five hundred working
men and women of Chicago
crowded into the West Side
Auditorium to protest against
the murder of Nicola Sacco and
BartoIomeo Vanzetti, the two
Massachusetts workers, who
have been condemned TO die on
framed-up charge of murder;
called by the Workers Party of
America.
William F. Dunno, editor of
the DAILY WORKER, and Com
rade Alexander Bittelman, re-
viewed the events which led up
to the conviction of Sacco and
Vanzetti on trumped-up MUIR
der charge.
They told how these two labor or
ganizers had taken up the cudgels for
another worker, Salredo, who was in
the clutches of agents of the depart
ment of justice. They told how the
man whom Sacco and vanzetti had
tried to defend was later thrown from
window on the fourteenth story of
an Office building by men wa were
acting as tools of the government. Or.
ganization and agitation in every city
was uregd by both speakers.
The apathy of the labor oficialdom
Of the United States towards the fate
Of Sacco and Vanzetti was scored by
Comrade Dunno.
Nothing could furnish better evi
dence of the backwardness of the la.
Dor movement in America than that
the Saco-Vanzetti case is still on the
order of business of the courts" said
Comrade Dunno. 1--WE must begin a
new campaign-a campaign whose slo.
gan is to be: Sacco and vanzetti
must not diet"
Comrade Max Salzman, Of the
Young Workers League, urged his
hearers not to permit the government
to go thru with this murder by allow.
ing it to throw over the whole matter
a veil of silence.
when Sacco and vanzetti first
came to trial. the workers of foreign
countries stormed the American Iega.
tions and demanded freedom for the
two prisoners. The government thot
that if the trial were put off for a
number of years the workers would
forget. But the workers did not for
get"
Antonio Presi, editor of 'Tl Lavora.
tore" Italian Communist daily, made
a ringing appeal to the workers to
bring Sacco and Vanzetti back to the
ranks of the labor movement. His
views were echoed by cries from the
audience demanding Down with the
murderers of the workers"
Cheers greeted Pietro Nigri, an Ital
ian worker who had been sentenced
to deportation for his activity in the
Industrial Workers of World. Nigri
told the audience that the attempt to
do away with Sacco and Vanzetti is
but another link in the long chain of
atrocities which the capitalist rulers
have committed in their amending war
fare against militant workers.
Comrade Alexander Bittelman, act.
ing as chairman of the meeting, an.
nounced that the workers present had
given $94.S9 to help the Sacco and
Vanzetti defense.

gative attitude which results from the,
usual status accorded the shop unions
by most arrangements is here displac-
ed by constructive helpful attitude
towards the management.
"On the basis of this understanding
we have among other things placed at
the disposal of the B. & o. a service
to help improve the morale Of the
mechanical department thru our un-
ion organizations. 1t is our purpose
to align the locals, shop declarations,

idea which underlies the engineering
services extended to railroads by
large supply corporations which have

nish let us say, arch brick, super
heaters, stokers, or lubricating oils.
The union members furnish their ser
vices to the best advantage to all.
In response to the recognition accord

tween management and men and Gre

On October 8 the Paris Matin print

GROWERS LEARN OF
COOPERATIVE PLAN

There was a fairly representative
crowd of growers at the meeting in
Community hall in Hanford Tues
day evening to hear the report Of
Jay Smith of Hanford on the prog
ress so far made by the Northwest
Farm Marketing Commission appoin-
ted in January by the state chamber
of commerce to formulate coopera-
tive apple marketing plan. Mr.. Smith
was selected some time ago by local
growers to represent them on the
advisory committee, each district in
the Northwest being entitled to repre-
sentation. This advisory committee has
had several meetings with the COM
mission, and after detailing the infor-
nation he received at these meetings
as we'll as the hopes and plans of the
commission Mr.. Smith read the con-
tract between the growers and local
associations that has been proposed by
the commission, as we'll as the pro-
posed bylaws and articles Of incor-
poration of the local associations.
The contract. which the commission
said had been passed upon not only by
eminent attorneys but by the best CO.
operative marketing authorities in the
country is quite lengthy and technical.
Mr.. Smith said that every grower in
the Northwest would be mailed a
printed copy of this contract and the
bylaws and articles of incorporation
as well as an outline of the selling
plan, within week.
Those at the meeting authorized
the chairman of the meeting, David
Zerwekh, to call another meeting of
the growers for further discussion and
consideration of the cooperative plan
after the growers have had few days
to study over the contract, ETC., that
is to be mailed to them. This meet
ing will probably be held some time
within the next two weeks and after
notices have been published in both
the White Bluffs and Hanford papers.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The Honor Roll for this quarter,
in order of excellence, is as follows:
George Wheeler, Russell Brown,
Glenn Kinney, Patrick Clarke, Mary
Willis, and Tommie O'Larey.
At Liberty Hall on Wed. April 9th,
every adult, upon paying his admission
to the High School vaudeville will be
given a ballot on which to write the
name of the high school student he
would like to see sent of the Student
Conference, and will deposit the same
in ballot box provided for that pur-
pose as he enters the hall. A majority
vote will be required for election. In
case no one student receives a MAORI
ty of all the votes cast in the first
ballot mentioned above, the names Of
the two or more students in the lead
who, between them, received majori-
ty of the votes, will be voted on again.
This process of elimination will con-
tinue until some one student receives
a majority of all votes casts. Students
may electioneer all they like before
the evening OF the vaudeville, but elec-
tioneering near the door Of Liberty
Hall, on the evening of the vaudeville.
is positively forbidden. Any student
electioneering at that time either per-

receive majority of the total vote
cast will be written on a blackboard
and the winner selected by secret bal
lot.

Band CONCERT and
ENTERTAINMENT net $50

As Charles M. Sanford said in ex-
pressing the community's apprecia-
ton to the band, there is nothing
like having something good to eat
and good music, to bring out a
crowd" And that combination GER
tainly worked at the band concert
and supper given in Liberty hall
Monday evening.
There were oodles and oodles of
good things to eat and bevy of wait
resses were kept busy waiting on the
throng that kept filling the tables
from until p. m.
The band concert began at 7 o'clock
and during the following half hour or
so played a number Of selections that
showed the steady Improvement the
organization has made since its last
public appearance. Several new faces
appeared in the band lineup, among
them a few of the high school boys
who are replacing some of the older
men who joined at the outset to get
the band started. These boys pick
up the music readily and make more
enthusiastic members than the older
men. 1 ne Dand music was tnOrOuSn-
ly enjoyed by the crowd that filled
the hall
Following the band concert vocal
selections were rendered by Miss
Helen Craig and Miss Nellie Bax-
ter of Hanford and by Mrs. F. A.
English and Mrs. Alex Parke OF
White Bluffs. The sentiment OF
most of the songs was in keeping with,
St. Patrick's Day, and the audience
expressed it's pleasure by giving each
of the singers an encore.
Before the dance began Charles M
Sanford was called upon to express
the valleys appreciation of the band,
which he did in an appropriate little
talk, ending with plea for every
body to put the band on his budget
The dance that followed lasted un.
til midnight. The gross receipts for
the evening were around $3.50 and as
there were only a few incidental ex-
penses, most Of this $3.50 will go di-
rect to the band.
