Their response has created the
Chicago Star which started
from the donations of 1,4OO
individuals who bought found
ers' certificates.
They have found that the in
vestment is far less "risky"

wise not available.
The investors in the Chicago
Star have built an instrument
which they intend to make even
full use of as we go into the
crucial economic and political
struggles, of '48.
BUT the Star is only the
promise of a greater peoples
press to come. And the success
of the current $4,000 fund
drive will enable the Star to
improve the paper, overcome
its deficit, increase its circu-
lation and win greater support
for the peoples movement for
Wallace and a third party.
More thousands of Chicago
ans are now being asked to be-
come builders of a living mon
ument to fair news coverage
and to a really free press in
America.
The sustaining and building
of the Star is a challenge to
fair and progressive minded
citizens who are revolted by
the corrupt press which they
are otherwise compelled to
read.
This way points to a peoples
press, stable and welI-rooted.
