The Daily Worker is the best mass contact instrument the Party has and is a power- ful weapon in the tasks of establishing shop nuelei, shop papers, in making the factories Communist fortresses. The first point on the agenda for Daily Worker building and securing for it a mass distribution, is factory gate dis- tribution and sale. Factory gate distribution will help turn the face of the Party towards the factories, will liquidate vestiges of social-democratic forms in our day to day Party work, will elevate the political level of our membership, will improve the social composition of the Party. Therefore, to the mines, mill and factories with the Daily Worker. Another form of securing mass circulation for the Daily Worker, of acquainting masses of workers with our official organ, is regular and concerted house to house distribution aid sales. In order to carry out successfully this form of Daily Work- er building, we must again emphasize that it ean be ade- quately accomplished only if the Party in the city will cen- tralize a large force of comrades in the most populated and congested working class sections of the city: (a) Select n section of the city densely populated with factory workers; (b) Organize a group of fifty comrades who will distribute the Daily Worker in this section of the city every evening. .fer a whole week; (c) As the comrades earry on distribu- tion they must talk to the workers and their families about | the, Daily Worker, the Party, the issues before the working , class and the names and addresses of the most sympathetic must be gathered; (d) Towards the end of the week’s dis- tribution the workers visited must be asked to become reg- ular readers of the Daily Worker at the rate of 18 cents per week; (e) An earnest. attempt must be made to secure at Icast one hundred workers to agree to read and pay for ihe paper: (f) A Party member, or a member of the Young Com- munist League or the Pioneers must then be secured to carry the Daily Worker to these hundred workers every day; (g) The. comrade who takes charge of this carrier system can be paid for his time at the rate of one dollar a day for each 106 papers carried to such weekly subscribers, namely $6 a week for collections amounting to $18 a week from one hundred subseribers; (h) Once such a carrier system is es. tablished the work of continuing free distribution and ur- ing additional subscribers at the weekly payment rate must go on until all working class sections in the ¢ity have been covered. The comrades in Philadelphia made a good beginning at this form of distribution and secured valuable contacts among Negro and white workers. However, they scattered their forees over too great an area and thereby failed to establish a carrier system unit of 100 readers. A few com- rades in the Harlem Negro section in New York City went cut one morning and secured forty Negro workers as weekly subscribers for the Daily Worker. The Detroit comrades are now at work establishing a carrier system of distribution. The capitalist crisis, unemployment, low wages makes it immediately necessary for us to adopt new methods of Daily Worker circulation and sales. Workers in the basic indus- tries, in factories and mines, find it impossible to advance $6 fora yearly subscription, or even $3.50 for a half year. At the same time, the masses of workers are militantly moving against’ their exploiters and the capitalist govern- meni as is proven by the 50,000 workers in mass demonstra- tion at the Katovis funeral in New York City; as is proven by the unemployed demonstrations in many cities, the strikes and struggles everywhere. These masses of workers must be made to move towards and into the Party. Workers who read the D: Worker will join the Party. “Mass circulation for the Daily Worker among the industrial | | Paterson Hindus began to rely on| :known to have told Taylor to wait The Daily Worker leads for the Party. | | ‘workers must be secured, and can be secured if our forms | of circulation, namely, mass sales before hundreds of fac- | tories at three cents per copy and weekly delivery into <wusands of workers’ homes at 18 cents per week, are put ¢harged under an old injunction ob- | “into effect.
