256 MONTHS OF SUBS FOR
MONDAY MUST BE STARTING
POINT FOR RECORD WEEK

Two hundred and fifty-six months of subscriptions to the Daily Worker on Monday is a good showing, but the goal of 5,000 12-month subscriptions still remains too far off at this stage of the campaign.

Without the fine effort of Chicago, which sent in 71 months of subs, the showing would have been considerably poorer. Chicago gained on New York which sent in only 18 months of subs. California is beginning to stir a bit with 18 months.

With the preparations going on swiftly for the California Hunger March, that district should do much better. Detroit did pretty well with 30 months. But as for Buffalo, Minnesota and Seattle, the less said the better.

Two hundred and fifty-six subs for Monday is a fair start for the week. Keep pushing up the total for each day now. Keep pushing section and district readers' conferences. Keep pushing the formation of Friends of the Daily Worker groups. Keep pushing individual and organization challenges. Keep up with the widening workers' struggles, the Kentucky strike, the preparations for the national unemployment insurance demonstration on February 4, the preparations for the Daily Worker eighth anniversary jubilee next month.
