V., No. 346 Price 3 Cents NEW YORK, MONDAY, FEBRU: ARY 11, 1929 To All Party Members and to All Units, To All Revolutionary Workers: _ February 16 and 17—next Saturday and Sunday—are set aside as TAG DAYS for the Daily Worker. | The voice of the revolutionary workers in the United States, the Daily Worker, calls for aid! This call must be answered. The appeal for aid is a call to continue the struggle for the organization of the un- organized; the appeal for funds is an appeal for a more intensified struggle against the coming imperialist war. ~ To support the Daily Worker means aid to the dress strike, the fight of the militant workers against company unionism, strike- breaking officials, low wages, bitter exploi- tation and speed-up. : ALL WORKERS MUST ANSWER THE CALL OF THE DAILY WORKER! Our Daily Worker during the five years of its existence has demonstrated that it in the thick of the fight of the Passaic entitle’ workers, those valiant fighters for the or- ganization of the hundreds of thousands of bitterly exploited textile slaves. In New Bed- ford, the Daily Worker has given courage ‘and inspiration to the strikers to defeat the wage cuts and to organize a union. All workers fighting for their class in- terests have found in the Daily Worker a leader that does not flinch in the face of the raging terror of the police, the brutality of the trusts and bankers, the exploiters of the millions of wage slaves in this country. Without the Daily Worker, the vanguard of labor, the Communist Party cannot carry forward speedily and energetically the tasks for the liberation of the workers. Without the Daily Worker, the labor bureaucrats can commit acts of violence and of suppression of the rank and file workers, without a means to fight back and defeat these traitors of the working class. The Daily Worker appeals for aid. Workers, it is your duty to give every bit The Pe ees organs of the prole- tariat cannot be maintained without sacri- fice, without a spirit of solidarity, of class consciousness, without bending every bit of energy and giving whatever the proletariat can spare. The Daily Worker asks you to collect funds, asks you to go from worker to worker to raise the money to carry on the work. It calls upon yeu to join in the Tag Day to col- lect dollars, pennies, dimes and quarters for _ This is your revolution- ) nist worker, every il] join in this work. ary duty! ee, member of the P: February 16 and 17 are Tag Days!
