are most necessary, at the shops and
factories, in the unions and other
mass organizations, in all neighbour

Party Leaders First to Join.
He announced that big Daily
Worker Day is planned, with a par
ade, bands, squads Of workers, women
and children from all the revolution
airy examinations, to bring the Daily
dramatically before the workers in
every part of the city.
Louis Fisher of the Daily Worker
arrangement committee spoke in de-
tail about the plans to create broad
organization. which would create its
own brass band, chorus, and other
cultural units, set up clubrooms,
which the John Reed Club artists
have undertaken to decorate, and
give the membership special privileges
in connection with trips to the Sow
let Union and admission to Daily
Worker and Party affairs.
The first to sign up as Daily
Worker Volunteers, he announced.
were William z. Foster, Earl Brow
DER, Clarence Hathaway, and Jack
Stachel
Earl Browder, General Secretary of
the Communist Party, was one of the
many who took part in the discus
sion. eff more workers don't read
the Daily Worker, it isn't their fault"
he said ut is because they don't
know about it.
Thinking Of the relation Of the
Daily Worker to the Communist
Party" he declared, "many simply
think that the Daily Worker is
produced by the party. That is
less than half of the atory. The
Daily Worker creates the party.
"The Daily Worker also produces
writer's, and it produces politics. If
we did not have the Daily, we
would not be able to have many of
our political activities. If we have
politics which are worth more than
three cents, it is because we have
the three-cent Daily Worker thru
which We can organize and carry
them out
But because the number Of CO.
pies we sell of the Daily Worker is
too small, our politics remain too
weak
The Daily Worker remains too Sec
tartan in its editing, he added. 1t
is not written interestingly enough.
The way to overcome this, he said,
is for the Volunteers to send in news
regularly, in an organized way, to Gre
ate a mass editorial policy, and a
mass editorial staff.
Il learned more from my contact
with the Daily Worker than from
any other source" he concluded.
Shock Brigaders at Work.
Many workers who took the floor
criticised both their failure to work
more energetically to build the Daily,
and the lack of liveliness in its con-
tents.
One girl told how she sold 80 CO.
pies of the Daily in half an hour,
on Sixth Ave, at And Street, by
shouting slogans, and dramatizing it
She said many workers who bought
the paper spoke to her and expressed
their pleasure at the 'Daily's' being
brought to their attention in this
way.
Many speakers pledged themselves
to build Volunteer units of shock bril-
gaders in their organizations and
neighborhoods. A girl delegate of
the fur department of the Needle
Trades Workers Industrial Union
pledged to build up a woman's Daily
Worker shock brigade in her union
Sam Wall of the Daily Worker
chorus pledged that the chorus would
make itself a shock brigade of Volun-
teers, and at the same time called
for members to join the chorus, and
to build it up SO that it could afford
a conductor on full time to develop
its work.
