A Proletarian Letter to a Wall Street Banker age» .- December 13, 1926 Dear Plute: IT UP in your easy chair for a moment and pay attention! It’s a proletarian talking to you. Not one of your crawling bootlickers, but a class-conscious worker. So don’t mind if you find this letter a bit rough on your bourgeois feelings. I notice that you are feeling pretty good ‘these days——raking in the shekels on a grand scale— piling up record-breaking dividends and big interest on your money. Cal’s building a bigger war machine for you, reducing your taxes and squeezing us-workers. They are getting after the Reds‘ too, I see—the whole gang—Woll, Sigman, Lewis, McMahon, the bosses, the plute press, and the courts. And meanwhile The DAILY WORKER, the fighting organ of the proletariat, is up against a serious crisis, and has raised only $23,869.42 of the $50,000 it needs. Looks like you're in clover. But hold on, old boy. You’d better not crow until you’re out of the woods. If you count on us being licked, you’ve got another count coming. Put this in your meerschaum and smoke it. WE HAVE JUST’ BEGUN TO FIGHT. ‘And the first job we’re tackling is to KEEP THE DAILY WORKER. We'll raise that $50,- 000 and no plutes or labor fakers will stop us., We'll keep The DAILY WORKER, if we have to move heaven and earth to do it. We'll not only keep The DAILY WORKER, but we’ll build it up day by day, into a mighty organ of the class struggle, an organ to fight you and your kind, an organ of the left wing of the labor movement, an organ that will help to establish a Labor Party in Amer- ica as a first step toward a Workers’ and Farmers’ Government in America. Hoping that I haven’t made you feel bad before Christmas, I am, Yours to i KEEP THE DAILY WORKER / ‘Daily Worker Dan KEEP THE DAILY WORKER For Militant Trade Unioniem-—For a Labor Party—To Help Workers Win Btrikee—Organine Unorganized—To Protect For- Mgn-Bore—To DAILY W PUBLISHING C 1113.
