The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-11-21

aging hands, reaching across the
guard of the American working
class upon the advent of this
new weapon in the battle.
The Spokesman Of the Party.
For the first week the eyes Of re-
evolutionary labor of the world were
upon us, for the DAILY WORKER
was a new recruit. We were to aug
ment the ranks of the hundreds of
red dailies in their day by day fight
with the world imperialists.
Then came message from Moscow,
from the Communist International. It
pointed out the tasks ahead, the
fertility of the field in which our
Daily would flourish. Significantly
the message closed with these words:
"The DAILY WORKER must be the
organ of the WHOLE membership of
the party"
All Must Support "The Daily"
This command could mean but one
thing. 1t could only mean that every
Finnish, Polish, Roumanian, Scandi-
navian, Lettish, German, Esthonian,
Bulgarian Armenian, Ukrainian, South
Slavic, Russian, Lithuanian, Jewish,
Italian, Hungarian, Czecho-Slovak,
Greek and English speaking comrade
was bound to make his first duty the
earnest suppork of the DAILY
WORKER. -
These comrades did build the
| DAILY WORKER. They gave il
the money that made it possible to
buy a DAILY WORKER home.
They gave it the finances for its
printing plant.
No Call for Help.
But this giving took place year
ago. The first call to subscribe to the
fund to establish 1.-THE Daily" was
made about Sept 1, 1928. From that
time to this not single call for help
has been made.
During this year we did not ask
for funds, but we did ask all militants
to double and treble our list of read
ers. And treble the subscription list
they did. The DAILY WORKER to-
day has three times as many sub
scribers as it had upon January 10,
the date Of the first issue.
Approach the Second Year.
We approach the second year of
the existance of the daily. A year
of propaganda broadsides against the
capitalists of this country, of exposes
of their maneuvers and falsehoods, a
year of conscientious support of the
workers and poor farmers is behind
us. The year before us must be made
twice as effective for the triumph Of
the workers, for the defeat Of the i'm
perialists, as the year gone by.
Our future possibilities have been
surveyed, The management Of the
DAILY WORKER understands It's
responsibility. Therefore Il knows
today exactly what we all must do,
II the DAILY WORKER Is to be
made safe and more effective in
strument for 1921
Insure "The Daily" for 1921
INSURE THE DAILY WORKER
FOR 1925 is the slogan which has
been broadcasted from coast to coast.
Insure the life Of "The Daily" Make II
secure against the future. Keep it
out of danger. Kick every burden
that today impedes its progress out
of the way.
This campaign TO make 1.-THE Daily"
safe for the coming year is to be
campaign Of giving. You gave a year
ago to establish it. You are to give
today to keep It and build It. The
campaign will go forward upon books
OF policies, insurance policies, sent to
every party branch. The policy OF
every member must be to buy a
policy.
DAILY Trebles Strength.
The DAILY WORKER ls three
times as strong today az upon the
date Of It's birth. But Il Is weighted
down with financial burdens which
must be met. II came to fight and
II fights today with blows that are
much more Discerning and aptly
placed upon the solar plexus Of the
pIunder-bund.
Today, at once, every one OF US
must rally to Its assistance. Upon
our shoulders, upon the shoulders
Of every one Of the $4,000 members
Of the Workers Party we must now
IIft this srpan Of our GLASS and give
n . paishty push forward
