(Cortinued.l

In general the Recruiting Plan of each district
shall provide not simply the quotas but the drive
shall be planned along the line of building new
shop nuclei, of strengthening the old ones,
strengthening and widening the units.
Our activity shall be especially concentrated
towards strategic factories The approach to
Jingle workers in the place of work shall be par
-. sill: collecting facts, information about the
Gtuation in the shops in order that special leaf
let's bulletins, may be issued which will help the
comrades in their work of recruiting new MEM
bers.
Ali the shop papers shall deal with the Lenin
Recruiting Drive, appealing to the workers of
the factories to join our Party.
In general the District Agitprop shall give spe
cial Instructions on this matter and help with
the propaganda with the organizatonal work of
the units.
In this drive special attention shall be paid
to recruiting Negro workers, especially in dis
tricts WHARF, the Negroes constitute large per-
centage Of factory workers and in the southern
territories where the Negroes constitute the ma
joyiGy of the population.
In districts where agrarian workers constitute
a big percentage of the population, the district
must pay special attention to this category of
workers. The door of the party is also open
to the poor farmers.
One of the most important tasks in this drive
is the recruitment of working women With the
exception OF New York and Chicago, all districts
have a very small number of women in the
Party and big percentage of these are house
wives. In the whole Party there ere only 1900
women and Of these 1000 are in New York. so
that the Importance of this problem is clear.
Today the women do not only work in the needle
trades and the textile industry, but also in al
most all the heavy industries. 1t is OF great i'm

The Anti Communist
Program

1t was nice program, glittering program,
that was pulled off last Friday at Carnegie Hall
in New York City.
We we're favored by seeing the program in
print, in fact printed on the best Of paper, ut
terly unsuited for other purposes. 1t began by
listing the Stars and Stripes Forever (Which is
a long time) by the 18th Infantry Band. THIS
made it bit unusual, of course, to note that the
band which without consent of the U. s. Army
could not have served as decoration to this fascist
But The main dish was listed as an address
by Mathew Woll, ice-President Of the American
Federation of Labor"
Now, Matte was there to raise protest in the
name of American labor, against the awful Boil
sheviks and all their doings. We don't grant that
he speaks for American workers, but he pretends
to. Matte is a member of the Lithographers
Union, used to be an official, indeed, of this
union. which is part Of the Printing Trades OF
the A. F. of L. incidentally, Justus Ebert, one
of the Ex-I.W.W.s who has gone social fascist
with the Music group is now editing that Lith-,
ographers' Union official paper)
But though Matte VOL was the headliner
along with Fish at the anti Communist meet
ing, somehow, he didn't raise his voice in protest
at the fact that the program of the meeting bore
no label. Horrors, maybe it was made Of Soviet
pulpWood tool

Much Obliged, Mr.. Fish!

An Arkansas farmer who never heard much
about the Communists, and who tells us there
are none in his neck of the woods writes in part:
Thanks to Mr. Fish, however, he has furnish-
ed me Gin his speech in Congress) with the name
and address of your paper, which I have been
wanting for some time Mr.. Fish, in reality, is
doing the Communist movement more good than
harm Please send me sample copy Of the
Worker and accept my best wishes in the
meantime.-J.HM." s

The LEFT" Socialists and the
Five-Year Plan
ITO Be Continued.)

cause things are not going exactly according
to their calculations, who have imported their
personal and political feuds to this country
and who have a Moscow phobia which blinds
them to the facts, the quicker will recover =
socialist integrity"
oNeal, the editor of the New Leader writes
a reply" twice as long as the original letter.
He fguratively puts his arm around Macs"
shoulder and tells him: IF Mac is correct we
have been in q mess since the end of the rus
siam civil war and not for few weeks" He
becomes blunt: 1--WE either approve it (Soviet
regime and Five-Year Plan) or we do not. We
cannot dodge the issue. We have not lodged it
since it became an issue in the international
movement" But ONeaI will have to dodge
facts in order to fool the workers, and since the
primary object is to mislead the workers where
ever possible, even the unflinching O'Neal will
learn to dodge just as agilely as the bushing
Mac.
Chicago correspondent, Paul Porter, writes
the New Leader, showing quite grasp of what
is happening in the Soviet Union. He insists:
These facts remain:
TN Russia as in no other country planned
production for use is being practiced on a vast
scale and in manner that assuredly makes
il one of the most audacious and idealistic
ventures in the history of mankind. The par
astism of some men living by the labors of
others has been abolished, and following that
has a progressive increase in workers
security, decrease in their hours of work, and
long step toward their enjoyment of the
fruits Of the civilization they build. All facts
carefully weighed, the Russian experiment
probably stands as the greatest contribution
TO mans welfare yet made in the Twentieth
Century"
A Red Tint to Yellow Torch.
Porter is afraid that the socialists will too
openly, in view of these facts, show up their
alignment with those who would overthrow the
Soviet and they would thus incur "a grave
responsibility"
This is the central theme of both sides" The
socialist party seeks TO get around the embarass-
ing facts of the advance of the Soviet Union and
not expose too clearly the nexus that ties the
socialists to the counter-revolutionary and Gar
list forces which seek to overthrow the Soviet
government The Hillquits want it done by a
discreet silence, while the younger set, who dub
themselves "militants," think they can borrow
fire from the FiyeYear Plan to give red tint
to their yellow torch of betrayal.

Dear Conlrade:-Having the biggest interest
in our movement, want to bring to your atten-
ton certain conditions, which I certainly don't
think are favorable to our aim in winning newt
members.
. Although Pm not a member Of the Commune =
Party, but from the LID, I do try my best In
winning new members subscribers and to collect
money for the Daily Worker Emergency Fund
and it wasn't my intention to be through with q
by now
But I'm sorry to say that the way got re-
ceved=although I brought only some money
which chad collected after hours Of talk, wasn't
just inspiring.
well / wouldn't even mind it but some daya
later, sent my wife with some new subscrfpl
lions had won. and she complained about m-
friendly treatment
"The same she complained about in the ILDE
where she went for some application blanks for

Gil of Working Glass Women, where she inquired,
about the LID. office, she got the same snappy
answers, although my wife inquired In decent

Well, the conlrade don't leave very much for
us to add There should be comrades who will
from now on, be vigilant to guard themselves
il on the desks themselves-against "snappy an
swers" to workers who enter and want to know
things.
If they do not we trust that other comrades
who observe such uncomradely treatment viii
speak up right on the spot, and-n necessary we
will assist in exposing this all too conornn "ap-t
paratus snob," who doubtless not by intentionI
but by thoughtessness, make workers feel UNI

'LONDOS WREST[ES

at Auditorium-Dusek
Meets BronoWicz.
TIM LONDOs' first visit here since

TIM LONDOS' first visit here since
his last successful conquest of
a., Rudy Dusek last Summer will be
made tonight, and 1t is an assur-
ance that over 5000 wrestling fans will
be on hand at the Washington Audi
torium to witness the champs clash
with Matros Kirelenko of Russia. The
first bout will start at $50 o'clock.
That Londos still is the best drawing
card in wrestling, or at least in the
wrestling as served up here, was mani
fest yesterday when Promoter Joe Tur-
ner announced that the show probably
would be a sell-out.
Londos' foe also is doing his share
toward Turing local mat followers to
the Auditorium tonight. Kirelenko, in
the last six months, has been one Of
the most improved matmen in the
league.
Londos and Kirelenko already have
met once this season when Londos
pinned the Russian after an hour of
wrestling in New York ring.
A bright supporting card has been
listed featuring semi-final between
Rudy Dusek and Joe Cox Others are:
Chief White Feather VS.. Pat O'Shocker,
Paul Jones VS.. Hans Bauer and Tiger
Nelson VS.. Herbie Freeman.
