Goes
Down
$'1,23

Like a blacksmith shop, the
DAILY WORKER Office re-
sounded Saturday morning as
the last dollar spikes were be-
ing driven in the 1925 insurance
campaign.
Altogether, $719.50 worth of
blows were struck Saturday,
making q total of $1,zoo.00
driven home by The hammer
this week. BUT 1T WILL
TAKE THAT MUCH A DAY
to raise the entire $4,000 by
March 5thl Over one-half the
job is still to be done.
One old-time friend of the
Communist press in America
alone struck 500 blows with the
hammer he brought in a
$500 check Five hundred dol
lars to be used unrestrictedly
to keep the printing machinery
going,-grinding out propagan-
da weapons against capitalism.
AS this DAILY WORKER
friend is not a member of the
WORKERS PARTY, he does
not want his name disclosed.
His generosity, however, brings a
new burst of inspiration to the
campaign. The revolution isn't
so far off, after all:s that's the
way 1t makes a fellow feel.
Following on the heels of
this gorgeous gift came an
other, not 80 large,-but just
as generous. The accompany
ing letter told the story:
II worked all last summer
on the bridge gang and saved
me enough money to get along
thru winter. But on Jan. 14th,
the bank closed its doors and
left me penniless. So the strug
gle for existence goes on UNI
endingly.
Enclosed find one dollar to
insure our paper, with much
regret that | can't send more"

ed dollar is ]. A. Blasutch, Box

AS WE NEED 1T
BY 7. J. o'FLAHERTY.

NOU have often heard tell Of the
Subsidized press" The term was
considered one of opprobrium in the
days when the socialist party was
the leading political organization
of the working class in America. But
those were the days when socialism
meant nothing more nor less than
pacifist liberalism, a vain protest
against the iron methods Of capital
ism and its government. The cap
italist press is subsidized in one way
or another by the capitalists It is
worth every nickel they put into it.
DUT the Communist press is also
. subsidized, unfortunately not
very healthy. The DAILY WORKER
is a subsidized sheet in the truest
sense of the word. 1t is subsidized
by the class-conscious workers who
realize the necessity of having a daily
organ that will fight for their inter
ests and give them leadership and
inspiration in their struggles. 1t is
only right that the workers should
subsidize their own press as the cap
italists substitute theirs. Now we
are getting down to brass tacks. We
are coming down from the clouds.
We have our feet on firm ground.
We know we are engaged in a fight
and there is no nonsense about it.
THE Communist press against the
capitalist pressl The workers
against the capitalists; the workers
under the leadership of the Commun-
list parties. AS the workers grow in
class-consciousness as the steel of
rebellion enters their souls, they will
become more and more convinced of
the necessity of supporting their own
press. But in the meantime, it re-
mains for comparatively few to carry
the burden. Those who have blazed
the trail in every age of human de-
courage and a spirit of self-sacrifice
to stick when the great majority are
hostile or apathetic.
IF the great masses OF the American
workers realized the necessity of
having a paper devoted to the inter
ests of their class, there would not
be any need for an appeal for funds.
The circulation of this paper would
be at least half million, and be-
sides paying for itself, 1t could afford
to devote its surplus to extending its
propaganda machinery. But that
time is not here yet, hence, the plea
for funds. We are calling on every
reader of the DAILY WORKER to
send us at least one dollar. One dol
lar is not the limit but every reader
is urged to do at least that much.
N SINGLE taxer from Philadelphia,
~ sent In a Ave dollar bill for an
Insurance policy. He said the DAILY
WORKER was the best working
class paper he ever read. II even

tax organization chance to make
good or expel him. He will be ex.
PEELED, IL that party has enough en-.
ergy left to purge itself Of a revolu-
zionist. IL the DAILY WORKER

Il not do?

ing class first, last and all the time"
The statement then cites the
cases Of persecution Of members of
the working class by capitalist courts
and pledges the Workers Party to
fight for the defense Of working class
victims Of capitalist justice.
The letter of the Workers Party
To printed in full below;--
Reply Of Workers Party
The Better Government Association,
721-26 Chicago Temple.
Dear Sirs:-
In reply to your questions submit
ted by your organization we assert
first that the title of your body is
misleading unless you stand for the
overthrow Of the capitalist system.
Better government is impossible I'M
der capitalism.
You say that the "crime wave has
become a great menace to life and
property in Chicago" and then ask;
"Will you pledge yourself (lf
eleeted) that you will not inter
vene In behalf Of any person charg-
ed with violation of the law unless
the same be done publicly and In
open eourt?"
AS Communists we know that CAPT.
taliBm is responsible for most of the
so-called crime and we are therefore
interested only in such cases as arise
out Of the class struggle going on in
society--what are generally termed
political crimes.
In the cases Of workers arrested
for activity in strikes, for agitation,
for educational work, for loyalty to
revolutionary working class organiza
tons, we and our party, the Work
ers (Communist) Party Of America
stand pledged to do everything in our
power to free these victims of cap
ttalism and its courts. In these cases
we carry on the widest possible agita-
ton among the workers with the OBJ
ject Of arousing them to defense of
their comrades. 33 of our members
are now under indictment under the
Michigan criminal syndicalist law as
are result of our fight for the work
ers.
Men and women arrested for the
activities we mention are not regarded
by us as criminals but as the very
highest types Of manhood and woman
hood.
Fullest Publicity
You may rest assured that in these
kind of cases there viii be the fullest

publicity. not because we have any
moral scruples about secrecy, but
because we always try to get the
ear Of the largest possible number OF
workers for these cases and the Com
munist program.
Your other question is:
"WiII you aid. as far as lies in
your power, the public law enforc-
ing officials in the performance of
their respective duties?"
Inasmuch as all the so-called Flaw
enforcing" agencies are in reality for
the purpose of protecting the stolen
wealth of the capitalist class, wealth
produced by the working class and
taken from them by non-workers who
own the government and industries
we consider that these robbers ant
their retainers can look after theii
Protect Our candldatesI
property without any aid from us.
Organize the Workers
We do not approve of individual
terrorist or criminal acts which serve
no purpose but to discredit the work
ing class and revolutionary movement
Our purpose is to organize the whol
working class. wage-earners and worl
ing farmers, for the establishment
workers and farmers government
which will administer industry and.
agriculture for the benefit of those
who work-the reverse Of the present
process.
Public law enforcing officials, with
few exceptions that do not count in
the scheme of things, are the willing
servants o. the class enemies of the
workers and farmers. We are run.
ing for election to the Chicago city
council with no hope of changing this
fact thru the parliamentary process.
II elected we will use our positions
as a means of exposing the phony
nature of capitalist democracy, of ex-
posing the inseparable connection be-
tween capitalist party politicians and
the traction barons, steel corpora
lions, packing house lords and all the
other brood, big and small, of the
robber clique of which the Chicago
municipal government, the state gov.
ernments and the national govern
ment are subsidiaries.
Party Of Working Glass.
The Workers (communist) Party is
for the working class first, last and
all the time. In it's struggles with
the capitalists the working class is al
ways right as far as we are con-
cerned.
1t is not interested in "crime waves"
and law enforcement" campaigns
which are always merely an excuse
for adding more thugs and parasites
to the armed forces of capitalist gov
eminent.
