I COLLECT FOR
THE DAILY
BY RAY FAUST
"a New York Worker)

rATURDAY, June 6, went out to buy Daily
Worker, but was unable to get the Daily at
the stand as usual. I went to other stands, but
they told me that the Daily Worker has gone
out of business" My heart fell but answered:
THE Daily Worker is not business paper and
so it can't go out of business" To myself I
said 1T is possible that we have lost the Daily
Worker? No, it cannot be! Now we're going
to get on the job and work never before!"
But felt sad! We must not be without our
Daily even for few hours. could hardly wait
until three o'clock when the demonstration to
free the nine Scottsboro boys started at Wash
ington Ave. and Claremont Parkway, the Bronx.
I noticed that some women comrades were SELL
ing the Daily Worker Overjoyed, ran to buy
q copy So there still is hope and the Daily can
still be saved!
On the Job for the Daily"
I decided that I must do my share for the
Daily Worker and must sell all the coupons in
my coupon book. The next day I went to Gro
tona Park where workers always gather and
started asking for contributions. Several work.
ers contributed but they couldn't give much.
I go over to another group and when come
back to the first group am told that somebody
who wanted to contribute had been looking for
the Daily Worker agent (meaning me-. I am
pleased at this new title, I feel proud to be
called a Daily Worker agent, but what pleaseS
me most is that somebody wants to help the
Daily The worker who had been looking for
me gave me so cents. I now have collected So
and feel encouraged.
go over to another worker and am pleasantly
surprised-he wants to buy a dollar coupon!
But here strike a snag: no change for the $40
bill he hands out. But the unknown worker
gives me the $40 and tells me to change it.
Aren't you afraid to trust me?" 1 ask. He
answers that person who collects money for
the Daily Worker can be trusted. That makes
me feel good; it inspires me with new deter
mination.
BY this time 1t is already dark. My four
year-old child, who is with me, wants to go
home to eat. I go home. On the way I meet
comrade; in voice loud enough for others to
hear tell him of my success in collecting funds
who trusted me for $40 merely because l was
collecting for the Daily.
Follow This Example,
Young workers. hear what I say go over
and ask them to help the Daily. One of them
tears out 50-cent coupon and says to another:
81 challenge you to buy a 50-cent coupon, too"
The other also takes one, and so have another
dollarl All told, SIS for the Daily Worker And
there are still plenty of coupon books to collect
on.
am writing this SO that others who may
that our Daily may appear, not only with four
live!

Improving Party's Language
Work
BY H. P. Greek Buro).

COME of our language buros are completely $50
lated from the District Committees OF the
Party and no connections exist between these
bodies whatsoever. AS a result, many elements
who have turned against the Party and conSe-
quently been expelled, are continually agitatng
against the Party in the respective language
field The workers who cannot learn through
other sources (but could learn through their
language buros) fall into a trap and are nisled.
many times drifting away from the Party.
1 believe that this state of affairs is harmful
to the Party and must not be continued. 1t un-
derestimates the role of the language buros and
of the language press. 1t gives chance to all
anti-Party elements to agitate freely against
the Party in the respective language field with
out danger of being exposed. Furthermore, it
underestimate the Importance of the language
buros of the Central Committee.
1 do not know whether this situation exists
in any other language field, but it does in the
Greek Fraction. The District Committee.
through the language department OF the Cen
trial Committee, must be in constant touch with
all problems having language Importance. This
will also help to a great extent to check the
growing underestmation of the role Of our
language press.
In the trade union field the Party's Greek
organ carries too little material. This is due

looks upon the language press as something
not important enough to be considered in build
ing the T. u u L. unions and leagues In the
food industry there are many thousands OF
Greek workers and particularly in the Food
Workers Industrial unions and leagues, but in
spite Of this the Empros does not carry any
articles on the policies, activities or any other
phase Of union work-although the Empros
bases itself mainly upon the food workers. The
paper, of course, is also to be blamed; but
mainly the blame must go on the shoulders or
the Greek comrades (and there are many in
the Food Workers Union, second to the Party
fractions as whole. and to the T. u U. l.
which takes no measures whatever to change
this situation in spite Of the fact that it has
been repeatedly notified by the Empros and also
by the Greek Buro itself.
Such practice does not help in building the
T. u. u. L. unions when the basic Transmission
Belts TO the Masses are left out OF considera-
ton.
tThe next Party Life Column will carry an
article on the work of the Unemployed Council
at Council Bluffs, Iowa.)

Have you been reading the articles of Max

very effective in countering the poisonous prop

The Daily Worker Must Be Saved!
An Appeal of the Paterson Five to the Friends and Sympa

in the columns of the Daily Worker we saw that
it serves the working class.
Fellow Workers At time like this to allow
the Daily Worker to discontinue would be the
greatest crime against the interests of the work
ing class. We appeal, therefore, to every COM
rade and sympathizer to do his utmost to col
lect funds and to increase the Daily Workers
circulation SO that our paper, backed by the
power of the organized working masses, shall
be able to lead these masses in their day-today
struggles for immediate demands and SO to the
final emancipation of the working class.

that the Valley could produce a
better quality berry.
