Apart from the special tasks in their

Establishing the Factory Nuclei.
In view of the novelty of this ques-
ton for many sections of the Commun-
ISL international, and the varying con-
ditions in different countries, the Elk

then only should the reorganization of
the party on the basis of factory nu-

be organized in the larger factories.
The nuclei should in no circum-
