Every shop nucleus in the country

have living active shop nuclei, and
there is nothing that can make shop
nucleus a more vigorous party unit
than a shop paper In getting out a
shop paper, the entire membership of
the nucleus participates and keeps in
touch with the conditions and senti-

out of such a paper, develops the mi

The getting out of such shop pa

in contact with the masses and how
to win them over by delivering to
them a message that will carry.
