Danny Malone, the young tenor who stepped from a London dock to become an overnight sensation in radio and music halls, is coming to America for a series of pro- Nrams over National Broadcasting Company networks.
 Acclaimed throughout England as the greatest singer of Irish songs of the day, Malone has won almost unprecedented popularity with the London public. His rise from poverty to fame in little more than twenty-four hours reads like a fairy tale. Now he is com ing to New York to take another step up the ladder of success.
 The young man is sailing for America on Saturday, July 2S, not in the stokehold where, as mem Der of the "black gang" he made his previous ocean voyages, but in a first-class cabin on a palatial At- lantic liner. The eighth child of a poverty stricken laborer will be re- ceived here with all the honors due one of the worlds great en- tertainment stars.
 Following his reception in New York, Malone will begin his series Ol cOuS SNCA O Ae@hAOA- wide NEG network, a series which will mark another high spot in his striking career and lead to recog- milton by another continent of an artist already rated as among the most remarkable of this day.

PARTY LIFE 4@
White Workers DenOunce
Kan, Join Communist Party
Workers Admitted to Party. in Birmingham in
January, 1884 Equal Total 1888 Recruits
By NAT ROSS

A new day of freedom is 6awning
for the South. The prison-like con-
ditions of the Southern working peo-
pie will not last forever. For the
first time, considerable numbers Of
white workers are moving towards
revolutionary action. Southern white
workers are joining the Communists
Party, on the basis of the closest
unity and solidarity with the Negro
people.
The southern landlords, the capt.
talists and their newspapers, have
called the Communist Party a mig
ger party" They do not say that the
Communist Party is proud of the
fact that the most militant and adj
vanced Of the Negro people are mem
bers of the Communist Party. And
the big officials of the Socialist
Party, the American Federation Of
Labor, and the National Association
Tor the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie, say that the Communist Party
is stirring up race hatred. and will
never win the white workers. They
say that the Communist Party pro-
gram of 100 per cent absolute equal
ity for the Negro people, and the
right of self determination (freedom)
in the Black Belt, will never be &C
cepted by the white toilers.
White Workers Turning Communists
But history is proving that who
ever says this Is either a liar, or an
enemy Of the working people, or both.
In the single month of January, 1884,
about as many white workers Joined
the Communist Party in the Bir-
mingham District, as did during the
entire year of 1893. This is only the
beginning. These workers have joined
the Communist Party because Of its
position on the Negro question. They
see that only the Communist Party
is able to destroy race prejudice, and
establish working-class unity. They
see the Negro people as a fighting
force against misery. They see that
lynching and Jin-C rowism and the
inhuman persecution of the Negro
masses, are used by the rich para
sites to exploit the Negro slavishly.
And they see that this is the reason
for the MIRA. ware differential for
the South, and the worst conditions
here on the eva, not only for the
Negroes, but also for the white work.
ers. They see that only the Commu-
mist Party is capable of developing a
powerful trade union movement of
millions, which will lead militant
struggles and strikes, which will help
to destroy lynching and inequality,
as it destroys at the same time. the
rotten conditions and the wage diff
ferentials for the South.
Ex-Members Denounce Khan
A large number of white workers
who Join the Communist Party be-
longed to various organizations
Quite a few were former members Of
the xxx. But these workers have
eeen that the main purpose Of the
Khan, in spite of some of its pledges,
is to help in the oppression and
lynching of Negroes, in order to keep
southern labor divided among itself.
These workers have seen how such
policy has aided the bosses in keep
ing the white workers down, too, and
they now completely abandon the

MORE NEWS ON LIFE IN THE

Dear Comrade Editor:
There have been various letter from
workers who rote that they leave
their copies OF the Daily on the seat
Of subway and train cars for other
to get them. 1 would suggest that thu
is too much of a hit-and-miss system
7 have always looked through the CO:
and spotted the proletarians-they
always can be found in overalls, work
clothes, uniforms, etc.-and handed
them ccpy Very few have ever re-
fused; I always Noted out CT the cor
ner Of my eye their reaction and very
few put them acide, especially today
when the "Pcds" are acceptable OF
something to be understood by every
worker.
More important yet are the number
Of men in military uniform. When
ever I see a soldier, sailor, guardsman,
marine, etc, I become Interested; be-
cause of their Importance to the
struggle they have an intense interest
to me. They are always my first
choice for handing a DAILY" to. But
the real shortcoming Of our Daily
is the lack Of news for military men.
One time that there was news, I cir
cled it in blue and handed it to two
guardsmen on train as I was leav-
ing. They were about to put the
paper aside until they saw this ar
ticle: tlcen they showed an intense
interest, both reading the paper which
neither wanted to read before. How
about some news of the military in

Khan and turn their backs on 1t. And
since the Khan is beginning to In
crease its fascist and murderous &C
tivities against the revolutionary
movement, it is interesting to see
that no one condemns the rottenneSs
Of the Klan more than these honest
workers, who have left the Khan and
joined the Communist Party.
Recently the Khan in Birmingham,
which is led by police, stool-pigeons
and other drunken and racketeer ele-
ments, burned a. cross in front of q
house where white and Negro work
ers were holding an unemployed
meeting. One Of the white workers
ran out, picked up the burning cross,
and threw it at one of the Khan cars
as it was speeding away. Another
white worker, a former KlanSnan,
declared. that the meeting would go
on, and that the workers present
would prevent the Khan or anybody
else from breaking into the house to
interfere with the meeting.
Communist Party Can Free the
~ South
The. Communist Party in the
South, is the Party Of the southern
workers. About 95 per cent Of It's
members are native Americans. and
southern-born. The Communist Party
is the most American and most
~~u4hern organization in the South.
1t alone carries on the finest revos
lutionary traditions Of the American
people. And at the same time, the
Communist Party Is the only inter-
national organization uniting the
working people Of all nations and all
races on an equal basis. It alone can
free the working people Of the South.
the United States, and the entire
capitalist world.
The rich rulers Of the South are
insulting the working people by de-
nying them civilized rights, closing
the schools, starving them. The revo-
lutionary struggle, led by the Conn

this hell and build a heaven for the
southern working people right here
in Dixie.

Rank and File Policy of Taxi Workers Union
Is Urged on ALI Cabmen by Correspondent
Only Fay to Break MisEeGdership of Political
Fusion RGcketeers

{ By a Taxi Worker Correspondent
NEW YORK-The present taxicab
strike was inevitable. The unbearable
conditions which led up to it, such as
long hours, excessive responsibilities,
day-to-day worries Of getting a cab,
hour-to-hour worries Of getting it up,
getting the business, gulf from the
boss, the police, the public-all for
an average of SO to $40 for from SO
to "a hours Of labor, caused many of
us to go on individual strikes.
In these individual strikes We would
try our hardest to get other work,
anything, just so as to get away from
hacking. But very few succeeded.
Most Of us woke up some morning to
find ourselves broke and were COM
PEELED to return to hacking or Starve.
Finding through experience that it
was no use trying to get out of hack
ing, we had no other alternative but
to try to better our working condi-
tons. The present strike is not only
the outward expression of our hatred
for our work and working conditions,
but also for our determination to
AA5lAb lUI BCbJGI
Former Mayor OBrien's SC tax was
the straw that broke the camel's
back. A short time after the tax went
into effect we hackies found that we
were losing in tips and business.
Especially those who had to ask the
rider for the tax, the rider usually
telling him to take it out of the 10
per cent tip.
Around this issue the Taxi Work
ers Union organized strike. This
strike could at that time have been
developed into the proportions of the
present strike had the right tactics
been used. But that strike, however,
succeeded in forcing the companies
to change the clocks from 15c first
drop to zoe and also was step to-
wards the present strike.
The present strike, which originated
spontaneously in Brooklyn sometime
last Thursday night, spread like Wild
fire and by morning there were strik-
erS all over the five bo-oughS spread
ing the news. By 9 am, there were
very few fleet owner cars on the
street and by pm, there were none
out. 1t was a general strike. Enthus-
iasm was high, meetings took place
in the Bronx, Manhattan and Brook
Ign.
At present the strike is being led
and controlled by United Taxi Driv-
erS Union which is supposed to be a
combination of all taxi unions. Three
of the unions in the United Union
were born with the general strike.
They are the Non-Partisan, Fusion
and New York Taxi Unions. Their
application cards give them away,
that they are really one union split
into three and boost LaGuardia every
opportunity they get. They also bring
up the red scare and use fascist
methods against any union which
they think has Communistic or class
conscious worker elements and also
say that no agitator will be allowed
to drive a cab.
At present LaGuardia apparently
does deserve the support of the
hackies because of his moral support
to the general strike. Whether La
Guardia has the interests of us

Standard Oil Co.
Bosses and L.S.U.
Help Each Other
By a Marine Worker Correspondent

BY a Marine Worker Correspondent
BALTIMORE, Md-On Jan. q,
one OF our Marine Workers Indus
trial Union delegates went aboard
the Standard Oil tanker w. S. Parish
at the Standard Oil docks in Canton.
He was warmly greeted by all the
members of the crew. He was told
by the crew about the I. S. q. del
egates and their tactics in obtaining
members.
He learned that the I. S. U. del
egates have passes to all Standard
Oil tankerS in any port. Also that
the I. S. q. delegates are trying to
terrorize the crews of every Stand
ard Oil tanker BY threatening them
with dismissals from the Standard
Oil Com7'ny if they refuse to join
. I. s. o.
The crew was very much opposed
to being forced into a union that
uses threats, vague promises and
deliberate lies to obtain members.
Fellow workers, it does not take
very much intelligence to understand
why the shipowners are so liberal
it'll their passes to the I. S. U. We
Ill know that an M.WIU. deleoate
cannot obtain a comDany pass. The
reason is that the M.WI.U. is the
only organization that has principle
enough to stand by the seamen, en-
ployed and unemployed and you men
Of Baltimore have seen our accom-
plishments in the past, and we in
tend to continue the fight against the
scab shipping shipowners and the
Fink I. S. U.
We are obtaining new members
every day from the ships coming into
the port of Baltimore and from the
rank and file on the beach. We
want more new members every day,
fellow workers, for the stronger we
get the more concessions we will win.
If you favor better conditions, why
not join up with the M.W.IU. and
help us win our fight.
