In 1905 it was converted into a weekly newspaper.[4] Publishers of the newspaper included
Jakob Pistiner, Rudolf Gaidosch and Johann Dumpert.[8]
The newspaper was renamed Vorwärts in 1912.[4] The newspaper carried the by-line 'Organ of the International Social Democratic Provincial Organization of Bukovina'.[8] It continued publication until 1914, hereby there was an interruption for a few years. Publication was resumed in 1918. From June 29, 1918 until December 19, 1934 Vorwärts was published daily. It then returned to weekly publication.[4]Vorwärts played an important role in re-activating the workers movement in the town after the war.[9]
Vorwärts focused largely on international issues, leaving little space for local German concerns.[10] The
Bundist Dr. Jakob Pistiner served as the editor of the newspaper.[6] Other editors of the newspaper included Albert Silbermann and Salo Hellenberg.[8]
As of the late 1920s, the offices of Vorwärts were located on Strada General Mirescu, 4.[11]Vorwärts was closed down in 1937.[12] The last issue was published on December 19, 1937.[4]
