Writes R. Walds, from Province
town, Massachusetts
THE Dos is interested in profits,
and not in the kind of life the
worker leads. The most labor for
the cheapest pay is his motto. If
the worker did not fight back. the
very bread would be taken from his
mouth. And the Daily Worker is
the only paper that sides with the
workers in their struggle. The
Daily" is owned by workers. All
the other papers are owned by the
rich. That is why they have to
interpret things in way that is
good for the rich. The Daily
Worker alone was not afraid to
point out to the workers that for
them the blue eagle meant more
starvation. :. The Daily" teaches
the workers that the ultimate aim
of their struggle should be the
building of a Soviet America.

UTHE press is the mightiest tool
L of capitalism" says S. Grod-
jinsky, New York. in times of
strikes, the press has always done
its best to break them by saying
they were 'un-American, or the
strikers used foreign methods. In
times of war the press has always
let loose the filthiest jingoistic
poison in support of the ruling
class. The Communist Party
knew the effect these newspapers
had on the minds of the American
people. 1t realized how they were
turning the minds of the workers
against their own interests. Thus
came the birth of the Daily Worker
ten years ago. Here the worker
reads of the lynchings evietions,
arrests of militant working class
leaders who are fighting for the in
terests of the workers, fighting for
a society that will benefit the work.

j. Snite, of Chicago, gives you his
reasons for putting the Daily
Workers finance drive over the top:
THE Daily Worker tells the truth
about the capitalist system under
which workers in America are
forced to live. The papers of the
capitalists keep the truth from the
workers. Because the Daily Worker
fearlessly prints the truth, it is
revolutionary. The capitalist
elias uses its papers to dope the
minds of the workers. That ac-
counts for all of the murder stories,
divorce and sex scandals they print,
and their kidnapings and o.her SEN
sstional important news When 1t
comes to dealing with strikes,
struggles of the unemployed, and
demonstrations of the workers,
there is no limit to how low the
capitalist papers will sink in lies
and distortion of the facts. {.
But the Daily Worker is in the
forefront of all working class strug-
giles, 1t gives workers political
guidance, not only in relation to
problems in America, but all over
the world The Daily Worker is the
great leader and organizer of the
working class, with the ultimate
purpose of setting up workers and
