ginning torevamp themselves in much
better shape. The Amalgamated

matter of organizing the party mem
bers on the basis of shop nuclei.
Shop Nuclei Prospects.
Local Chicago is also starting to
take up carefully the problems of or
ganizing the party. on the Shop nuclei
basis. In addition to work in this di-
rection among the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers party members, eff
forts are also being directed in the
stockyards and Western Electric. A
more accurate industrial registration
is now being kept, giving the place of
work.
Unemployment.
Party members should make it their
business to bring up the matter of I'M
employment In their trade unions and
other working class organizations, at
street and mass meetings and in gen.
eral everywhere take advantage of
the situatioA to present the problem of
unemployment to the workers and
make them conscious of what they are
up against and what needs to be done
T. U. z. L. and Party to Cooperate
Closely.
In an endeavor to get the 7. U. e.
l.. groups, the industrial departments
of the party to work even more close
ly with the party organization as such,
the T. u. e. l.. groups are to have
representation on the city executive
committee of the party, with voice but
no vote except on industrial matters.
Secretaries OF the T. u. e. L. groups
are TO make written reports to the city
organization regarding all activities,
sales OF literature, etc. This is also
done in the case of the city agent of
the DAILY WORKER. Sales of litera-
ture of al kinds, and especially the
DAILY WORKER, are increasing very
we'll in Chicago.
Street meetings have been more
successful than ever before in Chicago
and the election period will no doubt
mako them even more successful.
Arne Swabeck's class in trade union
conduct and tactics has started sue
cessfully More trade union members
should take advantage OF Swabeck's
excellent talks and get to the meetings
which are held regularly at 1902 w.
Division st., every Thursday. This
class in trade union conduct and tao
ties will prove invaluable to party
trade union members. The speakers
class, It is expected, will result in the
party having a number OF additional
speakeEs for use. Coakade Cannon
