Our pledge can be only one! We

ers for the Dailyr The furniture
workers throughout the country

Daily which gives us assistance in
our struggle for bread and butter.
Let US show our assistance to our
Daily by building up the circuls-
ton Of our paper. Let us attain the
goal of 1000 new furniture worker
buyers Of the Daily within the
next few weeks"
This is the statement issued by
Joe Kiss, National Secretary of the
Furniture workers Industrial
Union, on the drive to get 10000
new readers Of the Daily Worker
by Sept. /.
1t is the Daily Worker which is
the real fighter for militant trade
unions led by honest rank and file
workers. It is the Daily Worker
which gives the highest aid in or
ganizing such unions.
1t is the Daily Worker which ex-
poses the sell-out tactics of the bu-
reaucrsts and reactionaries like
William Green in the leadership
Of the A F. of L. One of the
primary tasks in the drive is to
get the DAILY" to workers in the
A. F. of L. unions, to members of
the independent trade unions.
Spread the Daily Worker! Build
its circulation. Join in this drive
for 10000 new readers by Sept. /!
We can make It'll Let's go!"
This is the appeal of Ann Burlak,
National Secretary of the National
Textile Workers Union, to workers
in the textile industry. She con-
tinues:
Every textile worker who has
participated in a strike for better
working conditions, knows how de-
lioerately the capitalist press dis
torts the strike news, how it tries to
discredit militant strike leaders and
strikers with all types of SANDER,
how faithfully it serves the mill
owners.
But the Daily Worker not only
reports on the strike from work
irg class angle, but acts as an or
ganizer and mobilizer for the
strikers.
The Daily Worker is indispen-
sable to us!"
The Daily Worker is indispensable
to all workers. But masses of
workers have never even seen
copy of it. We must reach these
workers. We must make the Daily
Worker a part Of the life OF at
least 10000 new readers by Sept.
l. We must have more intensive
work among the trade unions.
Party and trade union members
must exert themselves to the ut
most to make the drive successful.
Fellow members Of the Office
Workers Union, and all class con-
scious white collar workers. The
Daily Worker must reach the
masses of white collar workers. This
is your job! Do your bit in the
Daily drive. Read the Daily
Worker! Get your friends to sub
scribe to it! Spread it among your
fellow office workers. Get them to
buy it! Let the Daily Worker be
your guide-your aid in making our
union slogan-Every Union member
An Organizer-an actuality!"
This is the call issued by
Gertrude Lane, secretary of
the Office Workers Union.
White collar workers are now form
ing into unions all over the country.
They are waiting for the Daily"
But the best way of spreading the
Daily Worker is to sell it yourself!
Every union member must not
only read the Daily Worker but
must also be a seller. That is one
of the fundamental ways of being
an organizer-selling the Daily
Worker!
I'VE urge the members of the
Tobacco Workers Industrial Union
to push the Daily If they are
selling it now, let them increase
their sales. If they are not selling
it now, let them begin Immediately.
Because thus we lay down the basis
for our work"
This is the declaration Of P. M.
Uffre, Secretary of the Tobacco
Workers Industrial Union. The to-
bacco workers, struggling against
the exploitation by their bosses,
have no greater ally than the Daily
Worker. They must form a good
part of the 10000 new readers.
Every Party and trade union
member, every reader of the Daily
Worker, must understand the neces-
sity of building and supporting the
circulation of our Daily" as a
means of building our militant
unions. Only with q mass base can
our Party and unions function. And
10000 new readers must only be
start to the circulation we must
achieve If we are to build mass
movement.
