Finnish fascism, in the form of the Lapuan movement, has opened its bloody attack on the working masses by a machine-gun raid on a workers meeting at Mantsala, where 5,000 fascists are now report- od massed ready to march on Hel- singfors, the capital of Finland. Finland is in a state of siege, with the Lapuans mobilizing their reactionary forces in every part of the country, Besides the 5,000 Fin- nish fascist bands reported to be at Mantsala, 35 miles from Helsing- fors, other bands are being mobil- ized in other sections of the coun- try sixty te eighty miles from the capital. crisis in Finland and the worsening of the conditions of the peasants.

Posters to Show the Freedom of Women in USSR at 3 Day Show Women in the Soviet Unioi work four days a week and are off on the fifth, They work only seven hours per day—and at the end of their day’s work are not the haggard, wornout creatures that are represen- tative of the working class women in the United States. The excellent photos and posters Which will be exhibited at the Work- ers’ Center, 35 E. 12th St., on March 1, 2 and 3, breathe a message of life and vitality and show the path which the working class women of the United States should follow so as to achieve for themselves what the working class women of the Soviet Union have achieved. The pictures and posters show not only the economic reconstruction in which women take an active part, but depict as well the same attitude they take towards health and sex. In the Soviet Union, false pride, false be- liefs and false modesty have oe eliminated as well as illiteracy. Maxwell Stewart, just returned Honk the Soviet Union, will speak Tues- day, March 1, on “Women, Yester- day and Today.” Class-conscious workers can do a lot of good for the revolutionary movement and for the working-class women if they bring down to this exhibit their women shopmates and friends.

The Soviet Government has allowed | the small nationalities, which were oppressed under the Czar’s regime, complete self-determination and free- dom. The League of Struggle for Negro Rights, which has arranged this meeting, is organizing the op- pressed Negro race to fight for self- determination in the Black Belt of the South.

Workers’ Correspondence is the backbone of the revolutionary press. Build your press by writing for it | | shops are Weaknesses and Dangers in the Recruiting Drive (Statement of the District Commit- tee, New York. ) The success or failure of the re- |ship of the Unemployed Council of | cruiting drive is not determined alone by the number of recruits won for the Party, The Central Committee declared that it would judge the work of the districts not only by the num~- ber of recruits gained but by whether they were obtained from the shops, by the number of shop nuclei and shop papers that would be established during the drive, and whether they would function as real nuclei. Judged from this point of view, the District Committee, making a review of the recruiting drive in New York, calls the attention of the mem- bership of the district to the follow- | ing serious shortcomings in the drive up to the present time: 1) the shop nuclei in the large not workers into the Party. These big shops are the places where the Party must entrench itself 2) The Party members individually in their shops are not recruiting. 3) The union fractions are failing to recruit the many militants in the | revolutionary and reformist unions into the Party. This is a very seri- ous shortcoming, that must be rec- tifled at once. In order to overcome these weak- nesses in the drive, the District has decided to call meetings of the shop nuclei and the comrades working in large shops, as well as of the lead- recruiting sufficient | ing fractions of all the unions and leagues. The District has also de- cided to put the nuclei and fractions into revolutionary competition with one another, and thus stimulate the drive. The District Committee must state that the fractions in the mass or- ganizations, fraternal organizations, clubs, etc., have carried on their work far more seriously and systematically than the shop nuclei and union frac- tions have done. Although the recru- its from these organizations are wel- come in the Party, as are the mili- tants among the unemployed, it must be emphasized that the crisis and particularly the war danger demand that the Party root itself in the shops especially of heavy industry. We must recruit a far higher percentage | of Negro and women workers. The age of the recruits is high, indicating that the Party members are doing little among the young workers in the shops. The drive is half over, the orienta- tion is not a correct one for concen- tration in the present war situation. It shows that the Party is not yet turning its attention or activity to the war industries. This turn must be made, and quickly, COMMUNIST PARTY, DIST, COMMITTEE, NEW YORK, very shop, mine and factory 2 fertile field for Daily Worker sub- scriptions, Brighton Bread Strikers Served with an Injunction Following the failure of arrests and physical terror to break the eight week old strike in Brighton Beach, the bakery owners have hand- ed the Women’s Council a drastic in- junction which makes it illegal to picket, talk to prospective customers in the struck shops or eyen to ap- peal in the press for workers to stay out of the struck shops. Forty Cases Appear. Only two of the forty cases which were scheduled to be taken up in the magistrate’s court today were heard. Bessie Gold was dismissed aftér it was proven that instead of her doing the assaulting she had been assaulted by the sister of the owner of the Sherman bakery. The decision in the case of Gussie Ganick against whom a professional witness ap- peared was reserved after it was con- clusively proven that this professional was nowhere near the scene of the arrest. This witness has had the strange experience of being assaulted and insulted wherever she has gone or not gone. All the other cases were adjourned till next Monday.

International and Amalgamated GUARD AGAINST SURPRISE MOVE TO EVICT STRIKING TENANTS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) be prepared to show the police that the workers know strategy too. ‘The fruits of militant struggle was again shown today. In the house opposite 733 Arnow Ave. the landlord upon learing that a house committee was being formed in this house, and having seen the militant stand of the tenants across the way, decided to reduce the rent without a struggle. ‘The Upper Bronx Council, who is leading the Arnow Ave. strike, cau- tions the workers not to look upon this easy victory as a closed incident and as a rule. They point out that a solid organization is necessary to maintain the victory. Further incidents in the rent strike movement occurred today at 2802 Oliville Ave., where a settlement had |} been already made, Although the landlord agreed in the settlement that he would not evict any workers, he evicted two families today, apparently feeling that the workers were tired of strug- gling and would accept this pas- sively. The answer of teh tenants in this house was the immediate dec- laration of a rent strike. No rent, is to be paid until the landlord fulfills his agreement and takes back the two families. Spread the rent strike movement into every proletarian neighborhood.

The Laundry Workers’ Industrial Union, is also conducting a strike in the Newstyle Laundry, at 16th St. and 3rd Ave., where a worker was fired after work- ing there 10 years. The boss of this laundry has sey- eral times threatened to bring in gangsters into the laundry in order to beat up the workers if they orga- nized.
