By the very act of trying to sell. such subscriptions, whether he succeeds or not, the comrade in ques- tion is not only doing missionary work for Communism, but is also gaining valuable organization experi- ence. “The Workers Party membership must take seriously the necessity for mass participation in the work of spreading the DAILY WORKER. The building of our great English language daily must ever and always be kept in the foreground of our program as one of the most important tasks con- fronting our party. A DAILY WORK- ER with a great circulation means tremendous strides towards the build- ing of our organization into a mass Communist Party, a Bolshevized Par- ty, a party of organizers and leaders. Let us work to the end that when the second anniversary of the DAILY WORKER arrives we will have a vast net-work of organizers and militants throughout the party working ceas- lessly to extend the cireulation and influence of our paper amongst the struggling masses.” Jan. 13, 1925.

Pittsburgh, Saturday, April 25th, Carnegie Music Hall, (North Side), at 8 p, m. McDonald, Tuesday, April 28, at the Orpheum Theater, first show 5:30 p.m. Bentleyville, Friday, May 1, Majestic Theater, 7 Saturday, May 2, Fin- nish Hall, Walkertown. New Kensington, Wednesday May 6, Columbus Theater, May Day Movies Two of these dates were arranged as May Day programs by mail but all the others represent the direct, ener- getic co-operation of the party office. A careful study of motion picture act- ivity for the past two years shows that the number and success of the booking are in direct proportion to the interest taken by local and district workers, Any active hustler in a dis- trict can easily, with the help of the local comrades, get a string of dates and put them thru to a most success- ful finish. More districts should take up this work, full co-operation is guar- anteed from the national office, I, W. A., 19 S. Lincoln St., Chicago, Ill. The program routed in the Pitts- burgh district includes “Polikushka,” “Soldier Ivan’s Miracle,” and “Lenin Memorial.” All workers should be sure to see these extremely interest- ing working class films.

GET IT FROM YOUR BRANCH OR CITY AGENT—OR THE DAILY WORKER ie YAT SEN IS TOLD | TACOMA LABOR Clarkin Tribute to Soviet Sympathizer (Special to The Daily Worker.) TACOMA, Wash., April 19.— The Sun Yat Sen memorial meeting held here drew a large crowd that showed its appreciation of J. Stanley Clark’s speech by frequent and enthusiastia applause. The speaker dealt with Sun Yat Sen’s career at length, showing that the attempts to distort the teachings of the great Chinese leader, by claim+ ing that he was a christian pactfist, had no foundation. He shewed that Sun Yat Sen, while he may have started with a merely progressive attitude years ago, had developed into a great revolutionary leader who realized that there waa but one way for China to free herself from the oppression of foreign im- perialists, and the native capitalists, who were their tools. Sun Yat Sen realized that as long as China ré mained feeble and unarmed and paci+ fic, as the christian capitalists and their missionaries adivise her to do, she would more and more becomé the prey of capitalist imperialism. But when China learned that she must depend on force, that she would begin to be respected and to win her free dom. And he showed that Sun Yat Sen did not stop at this; that he was not working to free China from for eign capitalism that native capitalism might replace it; but that he knew and taught that the only way for tha people of China to be really free, waq to follow the ideals of Soviet Russia, and to create a Workers’ Republic of China. Sun Yat Sen was a hater of western imperialism and a sympathia er of Soviet rule. That was why the capitalists, Chinese and foreign, hated him so bitterly.
