Can the toilers fight EFFECTIVELY
without OUR DAILY?F Can we ORGANIZE
the radicalized workers without the Daily?
Shall we allow-the servants of the rich, the
agents of the bosses in the ranks of the
workers to behead the growing wave of strug-
giles?
To merely ask these questions is to be-
come conscious of the great danger facing our
class, in the suspension of the Daily.
To lose the Daily is to become disarmed
of a most important weapon The suspension
Of the Daily for even one single day means
the weakening of our leadership amongst the
masses. Only the immediate help Of the
workers can keep the Daily alive THE DAILY
MUST LIVE

help. Go to them, Every penny counts Every

Pennsylvania avenue, following an at
tempt to hold up the manager, j. w.

overheard them say. Let's wait until
tomorrow, he'll have more money then.
so I was prepared for them tonight
when they came in shortly before z.
had a gun tucked under my vest in my

to the front of the store and told them
to get out. When they moved a couple
Of steps forward I told them again to
get OUT Then one Of them grabbed q
handful Of socks from the counter.
"At that, I dove through the air,
grabbed hold of the mans arm and
wrenched the socks loose. Both men
backed OF and one Of them shouted:
Plate window Smashed.
"Tll get you Then he struck his
fist through the plate-glass show win
dow out front and the two Of them
ran"
When the two men attacked Gross
while he tried to hold them for police
several passersby telephoned in the riot
call to police. The shrieking Of sirens
as the police cars responded attracted
several hundred persons to the scene,
but by the time they had arrived
Vaughan had captured Penn, who was
bleeding badly from his cut hand, and
Gross was not seriously hurt.
Charges of attempted robbery and as

tors to actively oppose the passage by
the Senate Of the House appropriations
bill carrying an amendment prohibiting
the National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission from obligating itself
