Vol. 76/No. 17      April 30, 2012

Long-time reader Horace Kerr from Denver wrote the following letter to the Militant, requesting that his weekly bundle be increased from five to seven copies and taking a goal in the international subscription drive. We urge our readers to follow his example. (See article above.) The quote from Ontario farm worker and Militant subscriber Kenneth Logan was printed in last week’s issue of the paper.
 

“The Militant is tangible. You can share it with someone and have a conversation about what’s in your hands.”

I was using almost these exact words this afternoon in door-to-door sales here in Denver, finding my new bundle waiting when I came home, and with the Kenneth Logan quote from Ontario experiencing the same thing.

World events, workers’ fightbacks, and the beacon of the Cuban Revolution are covered and explained in the Militant as in no other periodical. I am a long-term reader and a health care worker caught up in the crucible of world capitalism in crisis. Staff and supplies are slashed to below the bare minimum, while management drowns us in an avalanche of upbeat “make do” morale boosting, collecting bonuses for productivity increases and budget cutting—an abomination in the face of humanity.

Accordingly, please increase my weekly bundle to seven.

Denver will also take a subscription drive goal of seven.

As Joe Swanson [from Lincoln, Neb.] so succinctly puts it: “High green. High ball—the track ahead is open for the Militant Army!”
