funds are rushed to The DAILY
WORKER until full quota has been
sent and if possible exceeded.
"The acting District Organizer and
any available speakers viii endeavor

Secretary and comrades do not wait

Comrades, The DAILY WORKER
is our greatest propagandist, news
conveyor, educator and the inspirer
of class consciousness, hope and as
piration to the thousands of members
Of our class. 1t is the only medium
that can and does reach thousands
of workers with the message of the
vanguard of the proletariat, every
day and night and ever so often, in
their homes, novels and places of
abode, in most distant parts at times
and places when and where no one
and no other medium will or can.
Comrades, let us demonstrate that
we Communists not only can save
The DAILY WORKER, but make it
the greatest Communist and workers
paper in America.
Rush funds-much or ittle-to

Secretaries are urged to keep in

owned and controlled by the steel
magnates. Here, too, about rs per
cent of the membership attended the
meeting and filled out the reorgan-
ization registration blanks. The Fin
nish comrades again were well rep
resented but the South Slav branch
was in the lead. Committees were
appointed both in Pittsburgh and in
McKeesport to secure the registration
of those members who failed to be
present at the membership meetings.
The registration in McKeesport
shows that practically all members
will be organized into shop nuclei and
there will be no need for any street
nuclei.
Work Continues.
1t is worth while mentioning that
while the registration is being taken
and the reorganization is taking place
the party work is not being hindered
in any way. Quite to the contrary,
the organization shows signs of new
life everywhere in the district.

plan for the reorganization the regis

noticing that the Finnish branch in
the city proved to be in the lead both
in attendance and in the percentage
Of comrades registered. The Finnish
branch has registered practically 100
per cent.
The reorganization committee is
now classifying the results of the re-

next few days. The rest of the COM

"To Members and Branch Secretaries
Dear Comrades:
"a call to Communist duty has been
issued by our Central Executive Com
mittee for the mobilization of our
party forces and every Communist
and loyal member must and will res
pond Immediately and join in our ef-
forts to help save our greatest medi-
um of education and the most for
midable weapon we possess against
the common enemy.
Surely, comrades, no Communist
and loyal member of our party would
dare even think of remaining indif-
ferent, silent or fail to do his or her
duty when our DAILY WORKER is
threatened with extinction. We, after
having spent so much energy and ef-
fort and made tremendous sacrifice
to bring The DAILY WORKER into
existence and we're successful in keep
ing it going ever since, certainly can
not afford to allow its publication to
be suspended. This must not happen
and will not happen so long as every
member answers this most urgent
appeal to duty.
'It is therefore evident that unless
we can mobilize our entire member
ship and money rushed to The DAILY
WORKER, we shall have cause to re-
gret our failure to perform our duty
as it becomes Communists and the
loss of our paper which has been
fighting our battles and served us as
an inspiration ever since it came into
existence.

APPROVAL

The committee found that Stone
was not guilty of ''unprofessional
conduct" as charged by Colonel
James A. Owenby, a Colorado min
ing man. Owenby contended that
Stone had engineered litigation for
the Morgan interests which ulti-
mately deprived him of his mining
property in Colorado. The COM
mittee did not agree with Owenby.

case and Stones appearance for the
Morgan interests said Senator
Walsh, "but could find nothing in
1t that untitled him for the nomi-
nation to the Supreme Court. I
therefore voted for his confirma-
ton"
The committee, however, again
postponed decision on the appoint
