March 10, 1880.
Dear Comrades.
/ am very glad to inform you that when we
received a letter from Comrade Karl Reeve,
editor of the Labor Defender, and published in
weekly and daily papers, in English and native
languages, this has encouraged the workers and
peasants of thssislands great DEAL The said
letter was published in full, part of which is
as follows: 'sWe hope that the peasants of the
philippine Islands will be able to select from
lner own ranks representative to America
and place before the American workers and
farmers the wrongs to which they are subject
ed by the courts of their country, and will
really express the aspiration of the masses of
the Philippine peasantry. Such delegation
would wipe away the impression which may
have been secured. because of the negligence of
the bourgeois visitors missions to U. S. to go
before the masses.
This interesting letter Of Comrade Reeve has
been given wide publicity and was highly cred-
tied, especially among the peasants and work
ers and in many organizations.

San Francisco, California, from Comrade
Manus inviting us to send delegation from the
workers and peasants Of the Islands to the

Reviving Old Members

The following letter is an indication of the
process of reviying old members, who during
the days of fractional struggle dropped out Of
the Party, but are now being drawn into activ-

movement and the healthy life in the Party

through all the stages of development, the un-

part in the building of the organization which
will lead the workers to their final victory.

United States as a mission from the Philippine
laboring class has called the attention of the
laboring elements, the peasants and workers as
well as the -proletarians especially when
it was given wide publicity in English and
Tagalog in daily, weekly and bimonthly
papers.
We are now giving publicity to the resolu-
lions passed by the Workers Party of America
in a meeting held in Chicago, Illinois, on Feb
l, 1924, on the Declaration of the Philippine
Freedom and to a resolution passed in a
mass meeting in California Hall for Philippine
Independence in 1924 and condemning the Re-
publican and Democratic Parties for their fail
ure to grant the Filipino their freedom, and
other resolutions Of that kind which are of
great interest to the Filipinos, mostly to the
workers and peasants.
< The resolution passed by the Trade Union
Unity League in it's last convention in Cleve-
land is so very interesting that it called the
attention OF the workers and peasants in the Is
lands regarding Philippine independence strug-
gle, etc
Much attentions are being paid now to reso-
lutions passed in several congresses where the
Filipino peasants and workers took part or
have any connection as in Anti-Imperialist

A letter Of Mr.. Clyde H. Tavener editor of
the Philippine Republic printed in Washington
ID. c. to the Secretary of the Independence
League and published in the Philippine Herald
on March of this year criticizes the failure
of the Filipino Resident Commissioners in
Washington to ask for hearings Of Philippine
Independence bills, as Bill King, etc., before
the House Committee on Insular Possessions,
etc.
Attentions are also paid to the tactics used
by the resident commissioners and members
of the Philippine independence Mission in the
United States as to their Philippine Independ-
ence talk and the sugar, copras, tobacco and
hemp interest of the landowning class for U.
S. tariff, etc.
Please send us some clippings of the papers
in the U. S. in case they publish something
about the workers and peasants of the Philip
pine Islands and the Philippine independence
campaign.
Please send us also at least two copies of
any resolution to be passed in case our re-
quest as stated in the enclosed letter should be
given consideration.

and they know that the speed-up and capital
ist crisis may throw them into the army of
seven million unemployed next in line. And
when workers, despite the low wages they re-
ceive, willingly give five cents, ten cents and
occasionally twenty-five cents for single copy
of the Daily Worker, then they certainly are
looking our way, looking to US for leadership,
already understanding that our paper is their
paper and that it depends upon the working
class for its maintenance.

BY ALFRED WAGENkNECHT.

FROM Frisco to Boston, from New Orleans to
Chicago, hundreds Of thousands of work
ers are talking about the Communist Party, are
reaching for it, sensing for the first time in
their lives that our Party fights for them, I'M
swervingly-fights no matter how viciously OPP
posed by Hoover and all the little mayors, by
the plunderers who own the industries.
Within the last month, the influence of our
Party among the starving jobless, among the
sweated, underpad workers in the industrial
hell-holes has grown a thousand fold
Wherever the slightest attempts have been
made to talk to workers, there comes response
that is surprising. In front of factory gates
workers are asking comrades who sell the Daily
Worker, questions that prove them in revolt
against what is happening to them inside the
factory. Every day moro workers are laid off,

Great Turk0-Siberian Railway

The building of the Turko- Siberian Railway
(Turksib), the longest railway now in construc.
ton in the world, is coming to its end AZ
result of Socialist competition, the road will
be finished much sooner than called for by the
plan. On April % the southern and northern
parts of the railway will unite and movement
of trains will begin. Part of the road is already
being exploited. The problem of uniting Siberia
with Central Asia, which Is of tremendous
economic Importance for the Soviet Union. Is
thus now on the eve of being actually solved.
The southern and northern parts Of the road
will meet at the Aina-Bulak station where
many workers. delegations from Moscow,
Leningrad and other labor centers will come
together to celebrate the opening of the line.

Ready for Struggle.
Workers are ready for struggle, muscles
tense, ready to strike blow for blow. But our
contacts with them are weak. Should large
strike break out today, would we secure leader
ship of it? If not, it will be because the Party
is not yet going to the workers, at factory
gates, in homes, everywhere-is not yet in the
heart of the industries, leading.
The Daily Worker campaign program places
before the Party membership exactly the nee.
essary tasks which will drive the Party mem
bers towards the workers in mine, mill and
shop and into their homes. You can build
hundreds of additional factory nuclei by selling
the Daily Worker steadily in front of factory
gates, by visiting workers in>their homes, find
ing out what industry they work in, getting

tonary unions and in the TUUI must be urged
ana cried through by the Communists. Spe-
cial efforts must be made to draw Negro work
ers into the leadership of the revolutionary
unions. Decided efforts must be made to in
crease manifold the activities CT the Commu-
mist fractions in the reactionary trade unions.
1t is necessary that the Party pass very defin-
itely over from the period of talk to the stage
of action in the accomplishment of its tasks
in the organization of the unorganized masses.
The progress of the Party on the road to
mass Party of revolutionary action must be
measured by the growth of the organization
and influence of The TUUL.
