DISTRICT 5 (Pittsburgh) and DISTRICT 6 (Cleveland) worked under similar conditions, yet District 5 did almost TWICE as well as *District 6. DISTRICT 2 (New York) could have had TWO candidates to Mos- cow if they got only 90 more yearly subs. DAILY WORKER, | Bigger and with} DISTRICT 9 (Minnesota) did not have a city going over 26 per cent and made the poorest showing in the country. CITIES LOS ANGELES, Cal., got 26,000 points, San Francisco got 3,400 points. These cities are about equal in size and labor movement. Draw your own conclusions. EAST PITTSBURGH, Pa.—(John Kasper) scored more points than the whole city of Cleveland, Toledo, Buffalo, Kansas City, St. Lonis, Milwaukee, St. Paul and even PHILADELPHIA! DETROIT, Mich., made a very good showing getting over 20,000 points. That’s keeping up the old tradition of always being one of the best DAILY WORKER cities in the country. NEW YORK, N. Y., did as well in percentage as Detroit. But with the big labor movement they have their showing is “not so good.” CHICAGO, Il. got less points than Detroit, reaching only 21 per cent of their quota. This unusually poor showing is the reason the district gets no candidate to Moscow. NEFFS and CINCINNATI, Ohio, with 66 and 56 per cent held the district up to where it landed. PORTLAND and SEATTLE with 33 and 22 per cent showed poorly. ELIZABETH, » , and STAMFORD, Conn., did a good job. ST. PAUL, Minn., the highest city in the poorest district, made a very good effort and if others did as well there would have been a different story to tell.

California Wins National Sub Campaign NEW YORK WINS TRIP TO MOSCOW California will send a candidate of its own choosing to Moscow. This state, District 13 in the campaign divisions, beat all sections of the | country in the third annu- al subscription campaign of The DAILY WORKER, coming in first among fif- teen districts into which the country wis divided, with a clear advantage of 21 per cent over its nearest competitor, Has' Pennsylvania. “ The work accomplished by the California Builders of our Press fs a distinct achievement truly to be proud of. Not only has California won the National Contest, but Los Angeles, center of the Drive activities, reached nearly 150 per cent of its quota, coming in third among all cities in the country. This achievement has great merit. Los Angeles, a city with @ small labor movement and not @ great industrial center, has done com paratively better than New York, Clricago, Pittsburgh and other cities indus irially developed and with a strong labor movement, THE BUILDERS WHO DID THE JOB, 7 The oustand! genius of the ac- complishment was Paul C.

Reaching slightly over fifty per cent of the quota they have unusual merits to their credit. Wm. Scarviile, DAILY WORKER Agent for Pittsburgh who directed the activities of this district, alone secured 8,380 points and with the help of a number of unusual individual performances, placed his district second among fifteen in the country. THE RECORD OF JOHN KASPER The whole district did comparatively well. Many \Al// #7 workers" accomplishments which the movement, has much to thank them for. But the one great perform- ance of the whole campaign and all the districts has been the record. of John Kasper of East Pittsburgh. He got busy late in the campaign to get subs, But. by his OWN EFFORT, this Builder secured nearly FOUR TIMES the quota of his own city, getting 593 per cent with a total of 8,895 points.

His record gives East Pittsburgh a lead of nearly 800 per cent bet- ter than his NEAREST competitor, MIAMI, FLORIDA. DENVER COMES IN THIRD. Denver, Colorado, went over its quota with 112 per cent bringing its district into third place and third in campaign honors. They did a fine job. Just a wee bit more pressure and they could have give the honor to New York of choosing one delegate to accom- rades! TWO CANDIDATES WILL GO TO MOSCOW. New York Wins Prize Honor, New York and New Jersey, under the capable guldance of Eastern Representative of The DAILY WORKER, L. E. Katter- feld, finished fifth in the campaign with a total of over 71,000 points. The rules of the campaign allowing a candidate for the trip to Moscow with every 40,000 points in addition to the winner give the honor to New York of choosing one delegate t accom- pany the California winner to Moscow.

Instructions, lists of leading candidates, etc., will be sent to all so you can cast your ballot for YOUR CHOICE. Judges, NOT CONNECTED WITH ner, a powerful semi-military republi- can organization, is demanding per- mission to equip its members with arms. The demand is based on the claim of the Reichsbanner that their rivals, the fascists and nationalists, or- ganized into bands and totaling 500,000 members, was bearing small arms and using them in street battles, Government Refus: While the government has thus far refused to allow the permit, experts claim that it has no right to deny the use of small arms to clubs for drilling. The government has said it fears the inter-allied military commission will object, New Law. The Reichstag is now preparing a ew law ‘governing weapons, and it is inderstood that it contains provisions vide their members with small-caliber arms. The Reichsbanner called for arms when, in Thuringia, the government was asked to disarm the nationalists. The government found itself power- less to do so and consequently advised the Reichsbanner members to arm themselves also. * Hindenberg Sues Communists, BERLIN, July 26.—President Hin- denberg has begun a libel sult against “Rote Fahne,” the official daily organ of the Communist Party of Germany, for a cartoon depicting the president as a mastiff devouring the constitu- ‘ton, that will allow organizations to pro-| goes the distinction of winning second highest city honors, THE DAILY WORKER MANAGEMENT will announce winners after the ballots are counted.
