Distributed Each. Day

A mass canvass of Harlem for the
purpose of getting new readers for
the Daily Worker in its Election
Campaign Subscription Drive for
10000 new readers, will be inaugur-
ated today, when 1000 copies of the
Daily Worker will be distributed to
the Negro workers in the vicinity.
This distribution will be continued
daily for the entire week.
The distribution will be super
vised by S. Kreiger, of the business
office of the Daily Worker, and will
be the first big scale attempt Of the
militant daily to attract the atten-
tion of the great masses of exploited
Negro workers.
Kreiger will have as his assis-
tants a committee composed of
members of the Harlem section of
the Workers (Communist) Party.
These workers will rally and are ex-
pected to be a big and powerful
factor in the work of popularizing
the only real fighting workers pa
pers in the United States among the
exploited Negro masses.

In an attempt to lay the basis
for a Red hysteria drive, police of

striker, and worked for hours in a
vain effort to force admissions from

young striker Immediately after the
hearing on his case, which was post
poned to Monday morning.
Costa pleaded mot guilty" to the
charge and although Prosecutor
Raphael Berracini attempted to
block the postponement of the hear

Costa, who is courageous mill

Even when Harberg produced pair
of handouts and threatened to beat
him up, Costa maintained his COM
posure.
Finally, after all efforts to force
Costa into admissions of guilt had
failed, he was released.

NEGRO WEEK IN
DISTRICT z BEGINS
Workers Solid arity
Dance to Wind Up

This week is Negro Week in Dis
trict 2 of the Workers (Commu-
nist) Party. 1t will be marked by
discussions on the problems of the
Negro workers and by an effort to
raise funds to push the Party's Ne
gro work.
Negro comrades will be assigned
by the district agitprop department
to lead the discussion in as many
units as possible. Where Negro
comrades are not available the units
will select one of their own mem
bers to lead the discussion.
Collections are to be taken up in
all units for the purpose of financ-
ing our Negro work. These collec-
tions must be sent to the district
office Immediately. Contribution
lists will be distributed teEeach
member and all must try to ges con
tributions from their shop mates
and Party sympathizers for this
most important work. Subscription
blanks for the Party's Negro press
will also be given out and each COM
rade must take a years subscrip-
ton in order both to support the
work and to keep himself properly
informed upon the problems and
outlook of the Negro workers.
Negro Week will wind up with a
Workers Solidarity Dance in Har-
lem. Tickets for this dance will be
sent to all the units and all COM
rades are asked to buy tickets and
attend this dance in demonstration
of the solidarity of black and white
workers.
Secretaries of all units in the dis
trict meeting on Monday night are
asked to call at the district office
to make sure of getting their in
structions for Negro Week, con-
tribution lists, tickets, etc.

Speaking to huge crowd of Ne
gro workers last Tuesday night at
Lenox Ave. and 134th St, Richard
Moore, Workers Party candidate for
congress in the 21st Congressional
District, after devoting an hour to
a graphic exposure of the treacher-
GUS role Of the bosses parties and
their socialist allies, called for a
show of hands. To his call for
those who would vote the republican
ticket in the coming eletion TO raise
their hands, not a single hand was
seen. The call for a socialist show
ing of hands met with the same
lack of response, while the call for
a democratic showing netted Just
three hands Of persons who had not
yet recovered from the virus OF. the

who would vote for the Workers
Party met with quite a different re-
sponse, however. There was a spon-
taneous raising of hands, followed
by hearty applause.
This same method of taking a
straw vote is being followed by Ed

ers Party ticket for assemblyman in

other speakers, and meets with prac-
tically the same results.
