DAILY WORKER
TO CELEBRATE
FOURTH YEAR
Jan. 13th Anniversary,
a Labor Event
Announcement was made yesterday by the Committee in charge of the program for the fourth anniversary of The DAILY WORKER, that active preparations are now under way to make this the most important event in the history of the paper.
The affair which is to take place on January 13th at Mecca Temple, 56th St. and Seventh Ave., will mark the completion of four years of as militant and difficult a struggle as any revolutionary organ in America has ever had to face.
Speaks for Vanguard of Struggle.
Speaking always for the vanguard of this struggle, pointing always fearlessly to the direction in which labor must travel, guiding and directing its none too sure progress in the country of the most powerful imperialism, The DAILY WORKER, organ of the Workers (Communist) Party of America, has been steeled in the clash with reaction and tempered by the heat of capitalist fire.
During the period of its existence it has passed through a siege of the most aggressive assault against the labor movement in American history; during this period also has come the most bitter attack on the militants and progressives yet witnessed; within the last year of its existence has occurred the open alliance of the leading labor officials with the government and the rulers of the government in the capitalist class.
Fought Always Unflinchingly.
Throughout this period The DAILY WORKER has held up unflinchingly the banner of militant class struggle. In the face of the combined attack of the right wing labor officialdom and the government, facing always the most serious problem of making ends meet, threatened with suspension of publication rights on framed up charges, yet it has managed to grow steadily in Communist vigor and working class consciousness until now it can without apology speak for the rising Party which it officially represents.
The fourth anniversary promises to be not only an event in the history of the Communist movement in America but a milestone in the development of the American working class.
