For the first time in Dayton a
May Day demonstration was held.
A thousand workers gathered to-
gether at the call of the Communist
Party at Library Park. Many Ne
gro workers and young workers
were there. A permit was granted
to hold the demonstration and no
interference took place.
First Read Daily Worker.
For the first time many of the
workers saw the Daily Worker.
They bought them up quickly and
eagerly read the news. Many work
ers bought five and ten copies in
order to give it to their unemployed
fellow-workers.
Rose Clark of the Communist
Party and John thinner of the
Young Communist League spoke.
They exposed the free speech bunk
of the capitalists.
The speakers called on the work

ly in the section of Dayton, Cincin-
natl, and Columbus. The workers
cheered loudly when they were told
the next meeting to be called by the
. Communist Party would be for open
air again, but no permit would be
requested. The workers have a
right to the use of the streets and
they will fight for that right.
The Communist Party slogans,
calling on the workers to fight for
work or wages, to defend the So
Wet Union, against the criminal
syndicalist law, for full political
and social equality for the workers,
etc., were greeted with enthusiasm
by the workers.
In the crowd of workers were
many of the striking plumbers of
Dayton, and when they heard the
platform of the Trade Union Unity
League, they asked for a speaker to
be at their next meeting, because
they know that their leaders are
anxious to sell them out.
