New Hampshire Holds
First Conference on
Problems Of District
BY BERT MILLER.

The state OF New Hampshire, with
Its many miles, of territory and it's
few isolated units, offers a dificult
problem to the district organizer, who
wants to maintain contact with his
units. The railroad fare to these
points is prohibitive. A tour means a
waste OF much valuable time away
from the center. Written reports are
barren and most difficult for the Pin
nish comrades in this part of the
country.
The proposal of regional member
ship conference was therefore made
to solve the difficulty.
Y Arrange conferenee,
Comrade Panaanen, the active Sec
rotary of the West Concord branch,
with the help of his comrades ar
ranged a fine musical and dramatic
entertainment for Saturday evening,
Oct. 10, at Scandal Hall, West Con-
cord.
The attendance was excellent in
Guiding party and non-party members.
On the following Sunday, the party
conference began lasting all day. The
cities represented were Keene, En-
field, Wilton, Concord, Penacock, COW
ering in all an area of about 100
square miles.
The proceedings were carried on in
Finnish, so that every comrade felt
fully able to express himself. The
remarks of the district organizer were
translated.
The meeting began with report of
the district organizer on the activities
of the party in the election campaign,
on the industrial field, defense work,
relief, etc. Attention was then called
to The DAILY WORKER campaign
and to the various activities to be
emphasized in the future. An imme-
diate collection was taken up for the
daily, collection books were distrib-
uted and plans were outlined for run
ming affairs for raising > additional
money.
Give Much Relief.
This was followed by a report of
units which showed considerable &C
tivity in raising money for Passaic,
for the British miners, getting subs
for the daily, defense, women's clubs
and for the Finnish club. The report
showed that sympathizers were active
ly helping the party in its campaign
and the English speaking elements
were cooperating. Comrades from
other units raised questions and
criticized freely. Attention was called
to the lack of industrial activity to
insufficient English contacts, to poor
functioning of fractions and to the
necessity of a more solidifed state
organization. 1t was voted to ask the
district committee to approve of the
/ formation of a sub-district for New
Hampshire with an executive commit
tee (centered in Concord, the state
capitaD in charge. Comrade Panaa
men was chosen as organizer.
The remainder of the session was
devoted to a discussion of the question
of forming a national federation. AL
most everyone participated. but the
question was left open for further
discussion.

DAILY WORKER
CONCERT NETS
$1,000 IN N. Y.
First Cannon Is Fired in
Big Drive
Especial to The Daily worksrl


Of $1,000, New York Communism
whistled its reply to the appeal for
immediate funds in the Keep the
Daily Worker" campaign.
This is the amount, above all ex-
penses, raised at The DAILY WORK
Err concert held at the Central
Opera House, 9th st. and Srd Ave,
Sunday afternoon when the first can
non in the battle to collect $4,000
right now in the New York district
was touched off. The campaign for
this quota is to be carried to every
part of the section and every nucleus
is already actively engaged in the
fight.
Divide Honors,
Honors for the success Of the con-
cert as the first word in the drive
were divided between the speakers
who made the appeal for funds, VIM.
w. Weinstone, general secretary of
Dist. 2, Workers (Communist) Party,
and Pascal P. Cosgrove, former or
ganizer Of the Shoe Workers Protec-
tive Union, the artists who delighted
the $500 listeners who packed the
opera house, and the Daily Worker
Builders Club.
The Mandolin Orchestra Lyra, with
P. Goldenstein conducting, won
deafening applause.
Fine Program.
The program containing ten num-
bers was one of headliners, and was
marked by variety. George Halprin
showed himself complete master Of
the piano in his Chopin, List and
Moskovski numbers. Edith Segal
brought down the house with her
Russian folk dances filed with artful
suggestion and the charm of Sweet
sixteen" Playing with fine concert,
the trio composed of Elfrieda Bose,
violinist, Naoum Benditsky, celist,
and Samuel Jospe, pianist, won hear
ty applause and the demand for en-
cores. Raizel Starkman possessing a
contralto voice of arresting purity
was a decided joy. Sophie Meltzer
accompanied her. The solo work Of
Alfrieda Bose, violinist, was delight
full as was also the cello number of
Naoum Benditzky. All the artists
donated their services.
Is Only Weapon.
"The daily circulation of the cap
italist press in the United States is
$4,000 OOO," said Weinstone in his
ringing appeal for funds to help The
DAILY WORKER. And what have
the workers to combat this army Of
paid liars? One weapon only, The
DAILY WORKER"
He told how the New York press
had maintained a conspiracy of sill
ence concerning the strike of the
thousands of cloakmakers despite the
fact that there had been a mass meet
ing attended by $4,000, and hundreds
of arrests.
Every time a poodle dog sneeZes in
the home Of the wealthy you'll find
his picture in this same capitalist
press" said Weinstone amid laugh
ter.
Necessity to Struggle.
Cosgrove pointed out the absolute
necessity OF the workers having an
organ OF expression if they are to car.
ry on the class struggle.
Following the concert, L. E. Katter-
field, eastern agent for The DAILY
WORKER, pointed out the results Of
this concert had produced twice as
much as the previous Daily Worker
concerts put together. He said, how
ever. that the remaining thousands in
the New York quota must be raised
Immediately to save the organ.
Leo King and Arthur Smith were
announced as the New York winners
OF the Trip to Moscow campaign
which ended July 4.
