There is nothing more convenient to

Aside from the carrier route sys-

do their bit in one or two other mi

determined effort to advertise the
Daily Worker gets results and brings
new readers. Says this reader:
Lust few words to you, the

to make a few suggestions about
how to let the workers know of the

to spread the Daily" in the sub

One of our greatest weaknesses is
the failure to gain organizationally

overcome this grave weakness is
seen in the experience of one of the
