Boss Press Aids the
Renegade Groups

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-The handful

liberal" press (The World telegram
in their defense of capitalism against
the growing influence of the Commu-
mist Party upon the toiling masses.
In a special feature story by one
John Mitchell, a staff writer, the
columns of that paper are thrown
open to the renegade Lovestone, who
was expelled from the Communist
Party in 1929. The article describes
the Communist Party as "split into
four groups" These are described as

ties under the leadership of Cannon
were expelled in 1923. Lovestone,
Gitlow and their followers were ex-
PEELED in 1929. Since then many of
the followers of both groups have
recognized that they were being mis-
led into the camp of the capitalist
class, have repudiated their leaders
and found their way back into the
ranks of the Communist Party. The
split between Lovestone and GitloW
is a sign of the still further disinte-
grafton of this small group.
Lies About Party Membership.
Pursuing their attempt to belittle
the Communist Party, and weaken its
influence over masses of workers and
farmers that are more and more
challenging the hunger and war pro-
gram of Wall Street, the Scripps-
Howard papers quote Lovestone's lies
that the membership of the Commu-
mist Party is only 5000. AS matter
of fact the membership now stands
at 10000 and is steadily growing.

their activity to trying to cripple the

Letters from Our

WHY ANOTHER DRIVE
FOR DAILY WORKER?

Baltimore, Md
s. Editor OF Daily Worker,
Dear Comrade:
Editor:
Why do we have to have so
many drives for funds for the
Daily Worker? We are hardly thru
with one when another is started.
I question this because there have
been so many drives recently, and
the workers are already suffering
from lack of employment. Where
is the money to come from?
The Daily" has only four pages.
1t seems that the drive takes up
most of the space, Front page, Sc
cond page and -four th page, all
carry news and notes on the drive.
Space is too limited to have the
drive take it all up. We want news
OF what the workers are doing in
America. We want news of what
the workers are doing in the U. S.
S. r.
Why can't a special drive news"
page be printed. It can be half
the size Of a single sheet and in
serted in between the pages?
All Of this in a comradely spirit.
George Anderson
At the very beginning of the
drive the Daily Worker published
figures showing why it was neces-
sary TO launch campaign for a
fund of $4,000 in order for the
paper To survive. Expenses have
been cut to the bone and the
weekly deficit has been reduced by
One-third, but there is still a $1,000
loss every week in publishing the
Daily" This is due to: 1. The abb
sence of large paid advertising,
which is the chief support of the
capitalist papers; 2. insufficient
subscriptions and general sales.
1t is true that the drive is taking
up valuable space. But the task
of saving the central organ of the
Communist Party, the only work
ers' daily in English, is a political
task second to none that the work
ing class is facing. And the finan-
cial campaign is being carried on
IN the columns of the Daily Work
er, not as something separate from
the struggles of the workers, but
as an integral part of them. To
relegate the drive to special
drive news" page would, in ad-
dition to the extra expense in
Volved, mean lowering the level of
the campaign simply to the aues-
lion Of money raising instead of
the political question of the role
and need of the Daily Worker and
the necessity of mObilizing the
broadest masses in the struggle to
save it.
We certainly want to print more
news OF what the workers are
doing in America in the U.S,S.R.
and all over the world. But unless
we save the Daily Worker we will
not have any news at all. We will
not nave the teacher, the leader
and organizer of the great mass
struggles that are now taking
place. 1t is true that millions are
unemployed or on part-time. but if
many workers, as well as sympa-
thysers of the working class. con-
tribute a little each, the $4,000
fund VIII be raised without any
difficulty.
These financial campaigns are
not inevitable. They can be done
away with by building the circu-
iatlon OF the Daily" and especially
by getting thousands of new sub
ScriptiOns.
But meanwhile every cIass-con-
scious worker must put his shout
ders to the wheel and DO ALL
HE CAN TO SAVE THE DAILY
WORKER.-Editor.

farmers will find interesting. They
will find a list Of market prices

for farm workers which are the
lowest in 81 years. Reports are

Farmers Are on the March,
New Paper Guide to Action
By MOE RRAGlN

THE American farmers have grab
bed the pitchfork, In almost
every state in the country we hear
squeals to show the farmers are at
the good work, Their committees
Of action are growing in strength
and number. Their penny SAFES
to stop foreclosures are forced
through in localities once called
sluggish and conservative. They
mass out on the roads in sub-Zero
weather to prevent sheriffs from
carrying out eyictions. They strike
and picket the highways Capitalist
papers, bankers, politicians, and
reformist farm organizations rush
forward, dripping with plans, to
help the farmers. Life insurance
companies suspend mortgage fore
closures.
THE FARM CONFERENCE
The historic Farm Relief Con-
ference at Washington in Deem
Der pointed to the farmers the only
way out. 1t stated unequivocally
that only through struggle will the
farmers be able to raise their
standard of living and crush the
forces that stand between field and
family. It called for a national
solidarity of farmers. 1t shot-like
a catapult - two hundred fifty
farmers back to all sections of the
country to carry out its program.
To help them, it established a re-
volutionary farm paper.
The first issue of the Farmers
National Weekly is just off the
press. 1t can be bought from Alb
Southern Building, Washington.
D. c. or in workers bookshops for
five cents copy. Tn5re is, of
course. the Producers News. the
main organ Of the United Farmers
League. This paper will in no way
be their competitor On the con-
trary, it will address RSelf to a still
wider circle to the poor and
middle farmers, to sharecroppers,
tenants in the most remote parts
of the country.
THE editor gives the purpose and
principles of the Farmers Ma
tional Weekly as follows: "Out of
ten years of farm distress there is
growing the mightiest farmers
movement that this country has
ever known. Against a system of
middlemen's profits, of bankers
uSury and political pretenders, the
wrath Of the farmer has risen.
The farmers are on the march. r..
This is a movement which cuts
across organizational lines Just as
1t cuts across the lines of race. color
and creed e. Through the Farm
ers' National Weekly we can build
for national united action which
must be as effective on the national
field as local united action has
been in some of the farm COM
munities. But this can be done not
through the wisdom of an editor
glued to an editorial chair but
through the collective wisdom and
experience Of the millions of fight
ing farmers participating in the
movement, and participating in the
publication of their own news
papers"

dlUOuS In their partI ni the Coun-
try. Under Uniting the Farm
Fronts Lem Harris, Executive Sec
rotary of the National Committee
for Action, reports on the four state
conferences soon to be held in
Nebraska, South Dakota, North
Dakota, and Iowa for the purpose
of drafting a state plan Of action
for mobiizing farmers behind a
militant program. Articles and
editorials analyze and expose fake
plans of relief like the Domestic
Allotment Plan and attack some of
the farm miSleaderS, There is also
a magazine section with columns
for farm children and 4 special APP
peal for farm women TO contribute
articles. This lively sheet has also
pictures and cartoons.
IT IS evident that the Farmers
National Weekly is a farm paper
far different from the thousand
rags like the American Agricultur-
list owned by millionaire Morgen-
thau, Roosevelt's agriculture ad-
wiser" It is not full of recipes and
romances and tinkerings to save
the system which is draining the
farmer Of his best sweat and blood,
and his last drops of patience. In
spite of this, farmers and workers
will have many suggestions and
criticisms TO make which will help
build it even into a more powerful
weapon in the fight.
SOME CRITICISM
The farmer in his present mood
and under his hard conditions can
take his news straight. No water
ing, whatsoever, is necessary. No
talking down or babytalk should be
used in addressing him, his wife,
his children. There are evidences
OF this in the appeals to the farm
women, in the Kids Kolumn, and
in the article Just Another Farm
Fake" The language in some
places is long-winded, fumbling
and dull. The farmer wants facts
and figures. He wants language
that is fresh, idiomatic, concise; in
other words, the style Of the letters
written by the farmer CORE
spondents. What is true of the
writing is also true, unfortunately,
OF most of the cartoons. Though
the slogan Push Your Pencil AS
Well AS Your Pillow, is an excellent
one, the cartoon illustrating the
action is pretty and ineffective,
not for revolutionary dirt farmer ;.
Here we have the same old haC
capitalist, with a rosy fat grandpa
face, chased by a farmer who looks
as if he had done all his blowing
on movie lot.
VERY important is the point that
' the news must be interpreted on
the basis of the class struggle. The
class lines must be constantly
drawn. So in analyzing why Henry
Wallace faVorS the Domestic Allot-
ment Plan (Wallace is another of
RoOSeVelts "agricu! .ural advisers,
it is imperative that he be exposed
as a member Of a class whose pur-
pose is to defeat all efforts on the
part of the farmer to fight his way
out Of slavery. The American
farmer is waking up. He knows he
is being kicked into the ditch. He
is learning fast who is doing it.
He knows he's got to fight. He
must know more about the millions
of city workers who are his only
allies in his struggles.
