While the letter deals with organization ac- tivities among Negro. workers and with the use of the mass meetings celebrating the 14th anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution, we quote it to give other comrades some idea of how to use mass activities in the hun- ger march demonstrations to push the sales of the Daily Worker. “We have been having great success selling Daily Workers,” writes the comrades from Kokomo,” and want to order more for next week. We are staging three big meets—one for the purpose of organizing the Negro workers, the second our regular Un- employed Council meeting, and the third a great mass meeting in the heart of the town to celebrate the 14th -anniversary of the Revolution. We wish to order 50 copies of the Daily Worker for each meeting.” In the same way we urge all Daily Worker Clubs and agents to be sure to have enough copies on hand for sale at the mass meetings and dem- onstrations held in connection with the National Hunger March. Increase your bundle orders as the demon- strations increase. The National Hun- ger March is just beginning to gath- er force. Begin increasing your bundle orders now. And make every effort to send in cash in advance for your bundle orders. On permanent bundle orders cash must be paid one week money on hand to print enough coples to reach the new masses being drawn into the workers’ struggle thru the Hunger March demonstrations. The Daily Worker must not lag be- hind the fight against wage cuts and starvation. The Daily Worker must get into the hands of millions of workers to point out to them the great extent and the great ferocity of the bosses’ wage cut campaign, and to show them that this big wage cut drive is the beginning of the world wide struggle for foreign mar- kets and a redivision of colonial ter- the Young Communist League, 45 were members of the Social-Demo- cratic Party, 3 were members of the Socialist Youth League, 2 were mem- bers of the Socialists Workers Party (Seydwitz group), 3 were members of the Reichsbanner, etc. After the main speech a thorough discussion took place, in which 32 delegates took part. ference were unanimously adopted.

The Daily Worker, which day by day points out to the workers the connection between their every- day shop problems and the interna- tional capitalists’ plots, is one of the powerful weapons of the Hunger March. Therefore every penny of extra money sent in advance with increased bundle orders helps to put more Daily Workers into the hands of the masses and helps the fight for wage cuts and against imperialist war plots. Every extra copy distributed Siafanered wpeer® by Daily Worker agents at this crit- ileal period is a stumbling block in the path of the capitalist butchers. ‘Therefore, comrades, increase your burdle orders, send cash payments in edvance, turn temporary bundle ders into subscriptions. Build up a solid barricade of Daily Worker sales increases into permanent bundle er- ders, and turn permanent bundle or- and subscriptions that will stand up against the increasingly severe at- tacks of the imperialist butchers. Wage-Cuts Loom for Telegraph Messengers (By a Worker Correspondent) NEW YORK.—Recently the West- ern Union Telegraph Company cut. the pay of the operators and clerks. Here is a trick the Western Union bosses use against the messenger boys: They charge the boys 6 cents a day for uniform rental. A boy would report for work and be told to put on his uniform. Then after doing so he would be told that there is no work, that he could go home. He would be charged 6 cents for the rental just the same. I then went to work for the Postal Telegraph Co. A month before 1 came the clerks and operators re- ceived a 5 per cent wage-cut, The bosses then gave them another eut— this time 10 per cent. Jn addition they have began charging messengers 6 cents a day for uniform rental. Ostensibly this 6 cents a day is to pay for new uniforms, but no new uniforms are visible at this so far. The messenger boys sarcastically re- fer to this rental charge as “helping Mack pay for his honeymoon.”, ‘There is also a rumor to the effect that all salaried messengers are to receive a quarter less a day—a cut of 14 pr cent. The boys are naturally incensed over this and some of them are in a quite militant mood. I heard one of the messengers say, “What we ought to do is to take over the in- dustry ourselves.” 17 Jobless Suicides at San Diego Bridge (By = Worker Correspondent.) SAN DIEGO, Cal.—Capitalism is dripping with the blood of untold numbers of men, women and chil- dren who have died from starvation and the scores of jobless who have committed suicide. Here in this city 17 persons have flung themselves off a bridge that Spans a deep canyon in the park. The mayor of this city is deeply of the park’s most picturesque fea- tures called “suicide bridge.” The park commissioner is against having a netting put on the bridge. He says that the would-be suicides would try fhe California building or the First Ave. bridge if the Cabrillo bridge was made suicide proof. Let us demand that the city offi- cials stop all the bunk about put- ting up nets. Demand that the city give relief to the jobless. Support the Hunger March to Washington.

Buksa spoke at length of the National Hunger March that would come through Yorkville early on the morning of December 3rd when they would hold a meeting there. He spoke of the platform of the Communist Party, and urged the workers of Yorkville to stand behind him in the fight to realize the demands that make up the platform on which he was elected. ‘The section of the National Hun- ger March going through the Ohio Valley arrives from Wheeling, W.

The superintend- ant then had the gall to state that the children would soon be getting milk through the “Unemployment Fund” which is raised through rob- bing the teachers of part of their wages and through the school chil- dren of part time workers, who also are forced to give a day’s pay out of their already starvation wages in the aluminum, the mines and the glass house.

F, The Graphic further admits the peaceful policy of the Soviet-Union: “Soviet Russia, trying to work out its economic experiment, wants to be left alone.” U. 8. Bankers Helping Japan. The leading role of American im- perialists in the war moves against the Soviet Union is murther shown in the aid being given Japan by U. S. bankers in trying to solve the severe economic and financial crisis in Japan. Yesterday's Journal of Com- merce carried a story with the sub- head: “New York Bankers Are Work- ing With Tokyo.” This, with the continued shipment of Japanese gold to the United States, together with the exchange of secret notes between Stimson and Japan, and the expres- sions by Stimson of “confidence” in Japan, is the strongest proof that Japan and America are attempting to subordinate their conflict of interests in China to the greater conflict be- tween victorious Socialism in the | Soviet Union and decaying capitalism in the imperialist world. The ship- ment of gold to the United States by Japan has the manifold purpose of meeting debts, establishing credits for war supplies and attempting to strengthen the yen. Gerard Calls for Army of 500,000, In an Armistice Day speech at armed company gunmen, deputized by Sheriff Blair, roaming Harlan County, the strike must be general so that the miners can en masse answer the terror threat and the attmept to murder strikers, The reports of miners from all sec+ tions of this coal region were unani- mous in saying that the strike call would rally at least 75 to 80 per cent of the miners in the first week, and that if within two weeks the relief apparatus is working—feeding the desperate measures to keep the min- | Cleveland, James W.

A dispatch from Mukden announ- ces that 500 Korean and Chinese Communists have joined 100 other Communists near Helbo and were moving toward Tsitsihar. Rally To Communit Party A United Press dispatch from Peip- ing admits the Chinese masses are rallying to the Communist Party. The dispatch states: “The ‘Socialist Soviet Republic of China’, with headquarters in Kiangsi Proyince, claims rapid progress as re- sult of the conflict between China and Japan in Manchuria. “ “After the Japanese had entered Manchuria, Gen. Chiang Kai-Shek was forced to withdraw his entire expeditionary force from Kiangst and Hunan provinces, which had been sent to conquer the Communists. (Chang’s troops were hopelessly de- \feated by the Red Army.— Editor Daily Worker.) As rapidly as the Na- « tional troops fell back, the Reds came in.” | Im Shanghai and other Chinese { cities, leaflets have been issued by the Communists calling upon the masses to arm themselves and organ- ize Volunteer Corps.

Reed pointed out that such an ap- propriation is inadequate, and at best could only be distributed with favor- itism to some, because it could not possibly be stretched over 25,000 work- ers throughout the corhing cold win- ter.
