ON ITS FIRST ANNIVERSARY THE DAILY WORKER The R. I. L. U. and the Daily Worker By EARL R. BROWDER O you members of the trade un- ions, you who carry on the fight from day to day, and from year to year for the revolutionary class strug- gle, you who are on the real firing- line of the Communist movement of America—do you realize what THE DAILY WORKER means to you in your fight? How Do You: Find Your Fellow- Fighters? Perhaps you hadn't stopped to think about it, but it has been mainly THE DAILY WORKER which furnished the means of. your finding one another so that you could fight together, so that you could work out the programs upon which you unite, so that you could carry Your programs out to the work- ing masses in your particular fleld of Battle. We have had enough experience to learn that THE DAILY WORKER is our most powerful weapon. The min- ers know it. It was when THE DAILY WORKER first appeared that the tens of thousands of rebelling miners in the United Mine Workers of Amer- ica began to powerfully mobilize their real forces against the treacherous Lewis machine, and thus to lay the foundations for a fighting union of miners. It was THE DAILY WORK- ER which rallied the support of wide circles of the working class to the striking textile workers in Paterson. It was THE DAILY WORKER which connected up the thousands of fighting carpenters who supported the can- didacy of Morris Rosen in the election in the United Brotherhood of Carpen- ters, and thus for the first time in the history of that organization broke the undisputed rule of reaction, It was THE DAILY WORKER that made it possible for the militant members of the machinists organization to launch @ powerful campaign against the B. & O. plan of class collaboration, and to organize a strong resistance to both the reactionary administration of Johnston and to the fake “progress- ives.” Making a Left-Wing Movement These things are only a few samples of the manner in which THE DAILY WORKER has sunk its roots deep in- to the life of the American labor move- ment in the trade unions, a movement which will be the foundation of the revolutionary unions of the future, the American section of the Red Inter- national of Labor Unions. It must be remembered, in judging the supreme value of our daily, that even if the specific work in the separ- ate unions and industries, could, pos- sibly, be carried on in a fashion with- vv We Wish You Success For 1925 And As Long As the Workers of America Have to Fight the Bosses! vv { out THE DAILY WORKER, yet the real task of establishing a left-wing movement would certainly fail of its complete success if we did not have the daily. That is because a real left-wing movement ig impossible unless it is a class-movement, not a partial or sec- tional movement, and it must extend at all costs extend beyond the boun- daries of the separate unions and in- dustries, setting up the bonds of sol- idarity between the revolutionary workers of all uhions and industries, organized and unorganized. It is precisely because the DAILY WORK- ER has done this needed thing that today we can say the left wing is a reality in the American labor move- ment, that:the R. I. L. U. has set its roots firmly in the American working class, International Solidarity Solidarity of the _ revolutionary workers by groups, by industries, and on a national scale—that is a large task that our movement has under- taken, and has only been through the DAILY WORKER that great pro- gress has heen possible in this direc- tion. But even these steps are not enough. In the present age of im- perialism, the final stage of capitalism, if labor solidarity does not extend be- yond all national boundaries it cannot be said yet to exist. And it is pre- cisely in the field of international solidarity of the revolutionary work- ers of the world that the services of the DAILY WORKER to our move- ment have been emphasized. International solidarity is more than @ phrase or a sentiment. It can only exist on the basis of real contact of the workers of the different countries, of a knowledge of their manners of life, of their working conditions, of their problem, of their struggles, of the history of their organizations, of their programs, of their contacts in international conferences, congresses, ete, Such necessary international contact is only possible on a highly organized scale. Tremendous outlay of energy is necessary, at great finan- cial cost, with great organizational burdens—and it is only when all the rich results of such efforts can be made available to the tens of thou- sands of the workers everywhere, ai a low cost and every day in the year, that it becomes possible to lay the foundations of international ‘solidarity. Think of the overwhelming riches of international infotmation and contact with the workers all over the world that the DAILY WORKER has made available for the American movement. Every important struggle of the work- ers of every land is reported. by the best writers and the best fighters in | | | | | | the movement. Every important prob- lem that confronts the labor move- ment, nationally and internationally, is studied and analyzed by the best informed and best trained thinkers of the international working class in the columns of the DAILY WORKER. All the great advances made by the Russian working class, the first sec- tion of the proletariat to become the rulfhg class of its country, are de- scribed and reported in detail. Out of the small contributions of the 20,000 to 30,000 supporters of tHe DAILY WORKER has been built up a mighty machine for organization and struggle, a part of the international revolution- ary army of the proletariat, Build a Mightier DAILY WORKER Yes, surely, on this first anniversary of the birth of our fighting daily, we can be proud of what it has accom- plished. We can say without hesita- tion that it is the DAILY WORKER which has enabled the Trade Union Educational League to ‘penetrate into every nook and cranny of the labor movement with the message of the Red International of Labor Unions. It has been the DAILY WORKER that has finally put the revolutionary labor union movement of America upon a permanent basis, But we cannot be content with con- gratulating ourselves on what has been done, It is necessary to make every small achievement the starting point for a greater one, It is neces- sary to extend the small struggles, for revolutionary progress in which we are now engaged only the beginning of greater struggles. It is necessary to deepen our program and widen the scope of its influence always and continually. There is one fundamental prere- quisite to all these tasks which faces us. That is to BUILD THE DAILY WORKER, and to INSURE THE DAILY WORKER FOR 1925. Let this be the watchword on the first anniversary of the first English- language Communist daily in the world. Supporters of the Red International of Labor Unions will unite in enthusi- astic support of our greatest weapon —the DAILY WORKER. UNIVT CHILDREN COLMAN bf AAS Comrade Sol Fishman Is 15 years old and one of the older members of the ae Juniors, this is our Birthday Party! Tho we are the littlest readers of the DAILY WORKER, we have everything in common with it, for we are It, and It is We. Isn’t the DAILY WORKER a pioneer just as we? Isn’t ‘the DAILY WORKER young, energetic, audacious and militant, just as we? Isn’t the DAILY WORKER “always ready” to fight the battles of the exploited workets and farm- ers? Doesn’t the DAILY WORK- ER shout the truth about the workers’ sifuggle for emancipa- tion from capitalist exploitation into the teeth of the capitalist lying sheets, just as we little Jun- iors heroically shout the truth about the vicious capitalist sys- educators? So you see, in fact, we and the DAILY WORKER are synon- ymous. And the little Communist David who threw the stone at the greedy capitalist monster Goliath wn Robert Minor’s birthday cartoon in this edition is really us. We Juniors, offsprings of the masses, are destined to lead the way in the United States out of black reaction to a workers’ gov- ernment, to the United States of Soviet America.
