each other and can more easily find
ways to get along together. The Ian
guage objection is sophistic and must
be overuled therefore. Taking it
for granted, therefore, that the com
rades of the various Branches, found
to be working in the same machine
shop, are ready and willing to be or
ganized as Shop Nucleus, what is
the next step? To outline briefly, for
the many functions and problems
should he dealt with in detail sepa-
rately.
Shop Nucleus, Not The Branch, Is The
Authoritative Political Unit.
1t is possible. in degree. for COM
rades working together in a shop to
carry on work of a political and eco
nomic character, which is akin to the
work a Shop Nucleus would carry
on. We have in mind a group of com
rades from various Branches who
work together in the same shop. They
spread propaganda thru literature,
ETC.; they formulate and try to carry
out certain shop demands; they do
some common work in the shop in
relation to the present election cam
paign of the Party. Butt is not
Shop Nucleus and does not do the
work it might if it were a bonafide
Shop Nucleus instead Of just shop
fraction. 1t is not authoritative; the
members of the various Branches re-
gard their Branches as the leading
body. That brings forward a funda-
mental problem of the Shop Nucleus.
The Shop Nucleus must be, and is,
the leading and authoritative political
unit Of the Party. 1t is the basic unit

How to Start a Shop Nucleus

Branches belong to the same polite
al party, the Workers (Communist)
Party, and so have like political atti-
tudes.
b. The comrades work in the same
shop, Allen Machinery Co., and have
the same economic and job problems
in the shop to meet and to solve.
c. The comrades are surrounded
in the shop by the same other work
ers upon whom our comrades have to
work with common political and
economic program.
There are more identical problems
which can be noted, but these will do
for our purpose. The question occurs:
with these factors in common to start
with, is it not logical that the Party
members should be organized as a
political unit in the shop to carry on
a steady, common and systematic pro-
gram for communism among their
fellow shop-mates? Plainly so. Far
more logical, sensible, practicable and
communist that these Party members
should be organized as Shop Nu-
cleus with definitive work to do.
That is true, comrade, and good,
but we don't speak English very well.
and that makes the work and organ
ization of Shop Nucleus so difficult,
is an objection which is at once
heard. That objection is more evasion
than anything else. 1t is a difficulty
cured by contact of the members with
one another and with program in
the shop to carry out. The boss ma
nages to get along with the workers
of various languages together in the
same shop. In fact, too well and pro-
fitably. Party members, as well as
the other workers, have to get along,
despite the alleged language barriers,
with the boss. Certainly Party mem
bers have far more in common with

nature Agent and other officers.
Then, the comrades must pay their
dues through the Shop Nucleus Seer
etary. 1t becomes and is thereby
the leading and main political unit of
the Party, and recognizes itself and
acts as such. The allegiance, if that
term can be used, of the members of
the Shop Nucleus is not to the terri
torial English or language branches
to which they formerly belonged. 1t is
to the Shop Nucleus. The Shop Uu-
cleus thereafter as an authorized body
meets regularly to lay out a program
Of action for itself-a program of po-
|litics, economic and trade union work,
educational, lectures, literature dis
tribution, individual work of the MEM
bers, time and place of meetings, etc.
all Of which must be dealt with in
special articles.
Shop Nucleus Activity Once Started
Will Do Away With So-calIed
Difficulties.
This article tries to touch some of
the technical sides to getting started
toward Shop Nuclei. The members
of the Shop Nucleus, meeting together
regularly, in~daily contact with one
another, with program Of work in
the shop will soon find that any Ian
guage difficulties, if real, will disap-
pear The heart and work of the
members will not be in their former
branches EnO1;ob or 1onorauo h.,f IN
their Shop Nucleus where they are
united on the basic of their daily strug-
gle needs and on the ultimate pro-
gram of Communism. Shop Nucleus
organization will mean better and
clearer understanding of the labor
movement and working class problems
in America and will produce better
Party members for the cause of Com
munism.

drivel, twaddle and Fehashed tommy

faithful, even Hillquit's proselytes.
You've read the speech and you know

for LaFollette. The vulgar tricks of
talking abstract democracy" which
has ever been the means of the old
type politicians to make a lot of hol-
ow noise without saying anything in
particular, was the very backbone of
LaFolIette's address.
Comrades. if this gathering is fair
sample, the whole thing is bunk, and
there is no such thing as LaFollette

and there is no new delusion that has
beclouded the primal issue of the
class struggle.

in by the noisy press agents of this
disgusting hodge-podge. The thing
cannot live because it is still born.
the delusion cannot persist because
there is nothing but low-grade piffle
to sustain it.
1t is significant that even the jack
ed-up spirit of the evening did not suf-
fice to keep the audience attentive to
and interested in LaFollette's grafton.
After the idle curiosity was gratifed,
the crowd became restless and to-

telephone rates struck a sore spot,
also his denunciation of high electric
bills. There wasn't doubt that the
bulk Of the audience would go home
into apartments with all modern i'm

crowd.

could see what elements it was com

noisy hand, and when he assured the
people that the progressives, far from

hefty applause of relief and reassur-
