Get 5000 New Members for the
Communist Party.

The Plenum of the Central Committee of the
Communist Party decided upon a Recruiting
Drive as one of our major tasks The Drive
starts December 10th and lasts to February
10th
The situation in the country and amongst
the workers is over-ripe for winning the work
ers to our Party. The intensified rational
ization drive of the bosses against the workers
the increased empoyment-growing prep
arations for war-attacks by the state upon
the Party and the working class as a whole
Chicago, Gastonia, California, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, etc, offer excellent opportunities for the
Party to win thousands of workers to its ranks.
The aims of the Drive are:
l. Recruit 5000 new members.
. Establish 100 additional factory nuclei.
g. Secure 5000 new subs for the Daily
Worker.
4. Establish so additional factory papers.
5. Sell and distribute 100000 copies of
the new pamphlet. why Every Worker
Should Join the Communist Party
6. Activize the Party nuclei.
The Drive must not be an isolated activity
but MUST be linked up with all the political
campaigns and activities of the Party Es-
pecially must we connect the Recruiting Drive
with the important task of roofing our Party
in the basic industries and large shops. The
Party must be built up in the basic industries
and the large shops through organizing shop
nuclei.
To put over the Drive successfully, every
member-every unit-every Section and Dis
trict Committee-every Party fraction-nust
be modified and imbued with spirit of de-
1,+; -
The membership must not wait for every de-
tail to be decided upon by the higher COM
mittees. Every unit, while following the line
of the instructions of the Central Committee
and also of each District Committee, should
take the initiative to work out new methods
and to push the Drive over successfully.
To conduct the Party Recruiting Drivee and
Build the Daily Worker Campaign success
fully, it is necessary to concentrate in (D the
factories, (2) the Trade Unions, 90 the mass
organizations, az to win back proetarian ele-
ments who NAV have lapsed in their member
ship, (5) to utilize the Daily Worker Anniver-
sary Compaign (6) to utilize the Lenin Memo
rial Meetings.
To bring our Party to the masses, popularity
written literature is effective in addition to
personal contact. AS a part of the Drive we
have decided to print 100000 copies of new
pamphlet entitled, "Why Every Worker Should
Join the Communist Party To put this job
over every member must be modified The
pamphlet will sell at only cents per copy in
order to get wide circulation.
During the Drive the Daily Worker must
be kept in the forefront. Especially must we
link up the Daily Worker Anniversary Edi-
lions and Affairs. These must not exclude
the Recruiting Drive but be a part of the
Drive.

UNMASk TREACHERY.
In the campaign of Salvatore Accorsi, as in
the case of all the victims of capitalist oppres-
sion, the working class must keep a keen eye
upon the treacherous role of these gentlemen.
1t is high time that the workers of America
once and for all put an end to all the various
small and wavering politicians who decorate
themselves with revolutionary phrases which
have no substance. The campaign for Saliva
tore Acccorsi will definitely unmask the
treacherous role of these gentlemen. Today
Salvatore Accors is being defended ty the
American working class. Accorsi will be freed
by the will of the American working class
through its whoe-hearted support of the only
working class organization that defends the
victims of fascism and capitalist reaction-the

BUILD THE DEFENSE.

The International Labor Defense has for the
past two years given support to the defense of
Salvatore Accorsi and launched a broad cam
paign to mobilize the workers in gathering
funds with which to defend Accorsi and sup
port his large family. The workers through
out the country have been responding to the
call and especially the miners of Pennsylvania
in whose ranks Accorsi belongs Today, more
than ever, when the l. L. D. comes to the help
of hundreds of workers, and when it, with the
increasing reaction due to the sharpening of

Of greater numbers Of victims of capitalist
u. a., 1t oec,mes absolutely necessary for the
l. L. d. to be strengthened into powerful
bulwark for the working class defense.
In the case of Salvatore Accorsi we notice
various committees springing up here and
there, through political spectators of the Tres
ca type, who under the pretence Of defending
Accorsi, aim to discredit the efforts of the
I. L. D. The work Of these gentlemen does
not help Salvatore Accorsi but on the contrary,
in creating confusion in the ranks of the work.
ers because of their stand against the !. L. D.,
they play directly into the hands of the Mel

BY MARIO ALPI.

m the 9th of December Salvatore Accors
miner from Pennsylvania, appeared before
the Court in Pennsylvania, charged with MUIR
der. The vicious capitalists have again manu-
featured frame-up and are planning to send
another innocent worker to the electric chair.
Salvatore Accors who was first imprisoned
in the State of New York two years ago, was
recently transferred to Pennsylvania where the
shooting took place. This is done at time
when the labor movement of the entire country
is gaining in strength in its fight against CAPT
talist naturalization and for the right to
game; at time when the capitalist contra
dictions began to take sharper forms and the
class struggle is accentuating.
BOSSES WILL NOT SUCCEED.
The vicious capitalists who have already
condemned to many years of Imprisonment the
militant textile workers in Charlotte, while the
hired thugs of the bosses who murdered Ella
May and the Marion workers go free, are pre-
pairing to sentence Accors in order to ntimi-
date and terrorize the workers. 1t is imma-
terial to the capitalists whether Accorsi is
guilty or innocent; they want a new victim
upon whom to lash their cruelty in the attempt
to display their power and thus check the
militant struggle of the workers. But they
will not succeed! The workers of America
are on their guard. They are determined to
free their fellow-worker and they will accomp-
fish it!
Salvatore Accors did not kill. Salvatore
Accors was not present at the Sacco-Vanzetti
Protest Meeting held in Cheswick, Pa, where
, a policeman met his death while attacking
workers meeting The shooting of this thug
act of working class cole o'0fo"~n ,"t
no one knows who fired the shot. But it was
not Accors He was miles away the time.s
The police are we'll aware of this. Through
Salvatore Accorsi the capitalists want to deal
similar blow at the working class they
did by the murder of Sacco and Vanzetti and
by the infamous sentence in Charlotte. Saliva
tore Accorsi belongs to the working class of
America and all the workers, regardless of
nationality, must come to the aid of
their fellow-worker; must definitely declare to
the capitalists that they are ready to struggle
and resist any attempts at numbering their
fellow workers.

the universe, and 1t covers the whole
realm OF what can be estimated and

The Barnes paper declared that
science has r~eiegated sin into "the
limbo Of ancient superStitionsF" and
called for a new order based on the
discoveries Of science IN place of the
old theological dogma, and recogniz-
