Daily Worker Tightens Its Budget Amid Retrenchment
The Daily Worker announces a drastic cutback plan effective Oct 1, publishing four pages daily four days a week and a 12 page issue on Friday, reducing print from eight pages daily five days to 12 pages on weekends. The move aims to slash the budget from 370000 to 240000 as party membership slides from 74000 in 1947 to about 10000.
