1 d Organization Meetings BOSTON RAISES $250 AT FIRST RESCUE PARTY (Special to The Daily Worker) BOSTON, Mass., Nov. 5.—The first of a series of DAILY WORKER rescue parties was held here this week at the Dudley St. Opera House, with a good program of music and dancing and a playlet by the Young Workers League. Comrade John J. Ballam, in an appeal for The DAILY WORKER, told the story of the first DAILY WORKER campaign and how our paper is part of the American working class. “If a dear friend were dying,” said Ballam, “and your contribution of a few dollars would help to save his life, would you hesitate? The DAILY WORKER represents our movement, it is thé collective organizer and) agi- tator for our party; it is the organ of the militant trade unionists; it is the bearer of the Communist message. “Without The DAILY WORKER, our movement would languish. Let us save it for as we build The DAILY WORKER,—vwe build our party. Our ‘Workers Party is the instrument thru which the workers will accomplish their revolution and The DAILY WORKER is our party’s voice. Come to its rescue!” The rescue party raised $250 in cash and $50 in pledges. The Russian, Armenian, Jewish and other branches are also arranging Tescue parties, A Correction. Editor, DAILY WORKER—In my article there is a serious mistake. The article is entitled “What Will We Gain from Reorganization?” In column four, line 20, there is an ommission which makes me look like a philosophical anarchist. The sentence should read: “The Com- munist movement arising out of the real struggles of the workers in the period of imperialism, has made it clear that the culmination of the class struggle will not. be’—and then should follow the . clauses “thru the casting of votes, but thru sterner measures—thru turning the tables against the oppressors.”—Is- rael Amter.

Seventy-one members appeared at the meeting from the branches in this area, 29 of these were found to sections and are being assigned ac-+—— cordingly, Section No. 5 on the North Side is for the most part a residential area which accounts mainly for the fact that shop nuclei were not formed as yet. Among the 29 members who are bee ing assigned to units in other sec- tions, there are many who work in large factories where it is known that there are other party members. These will be formed into shop nuclei. As fast°aS possible, the members among the three street nuclei formed at the section meeting will be attach- ed later to shop units. In street nucleus 1, are to be found the following classificatfon: black- smith helper, teacher, carpenter, cab driver, sign painter, furrier, mechanic, drugless physician, saleswoman, store cashier, car inspector, party worker and four housewives and one comrade at present unemployed.
