The Daily Worker is not yet nlucn

should have many more subscribers
among 9he farmers than it has. and
undoubtedly 1t is quite possible to
enlaggeS the Influence of the Daily
among the agrarian rnasses if sys-
tellati& efforts weys made to get
readers for it. 1t is spf he utmost
Importance for our agrarian work
that we get as manytworking farm

Workers are we'll satisfied VITA It.
They like it letter than the Mil
waukee Leader. They; do not fail to
notice the difference. ii the two
papers in regard to discussions on
taestichs affecting the actual s,rug-
giles &C.! .he workers AM farmers, on
questions of imperialism and war,
regarding Soviet RUSSIA, the fight
against the fake prHgi essives like
Norris, Frazier, Shipstead. etc. The
pailS does not leave the farmer up
in the fair on these fquestions like
the milwaukee, Lclfsr does,
! mention the Milwaukee Leader
for the reason that this paper has
net IA few subscribers in some Of
the farming states and its influence
upon the farmer is not good, since
it is anti revolutionary, anti-Soviet
and does not unmask those so-cailed
farm leaders who are masquerading
as progressives. The most baneful
Influence we have to- contend with
here in the farming states is this
pseudo progressive ielement. The
Daily Worker certainly knows how
to smash these misleaders Of the
farmers. 1t deserves, therefore, the
full and complete support of ell our
comrades, of all militant working
farmers and farm workers through
out the country.
We greet the Daily Worker on its
fifth anniversary and only regret
we have not done more to spread
it's Influence in the farming section.
| appeal to all comrades to go the
limit in supporting our revolutionary
spokesman and get as many sub
se1ibers for it as possible.
