the discussion every comrade must
subordinate these and unite behind
the policies and the outline of work
adopted by the N. E. c. and see that
it is carried into effect intellectually
by every member and unit of the or
ganization. Our immediate tasks are
many, our numbers are still small and
we must not allow anything to hinder
us in our progress towards a real
Bolshevized Young Communist
League.
The entire league must enter whole
heartedly the Lenin enrolment drive
to Double our members during 1926"
This slogan must permeate the entire
organization. This must not be an
isolated and member catching drive.
1t must be linked up closely with the
organization of our league completely
upon the shop nucleus basis. Further
more our membership drive must be
linked up closely with the economic
struggles of the working class youth.
We must gain the support of the
young factory workers upon the basis
of our everyday economic and trade
union demands. We must permeate
the millions of young Negro workers
with our propaganda and bring them
into our ranks. We must extend our
activities amongst the young agricul-
ture workers and thus solidify the
city and country proletarian youth
During this year we must transform
our league completely upon the shop
nucleus basis and this can be accom-
Dlished much better by connecting
his task directly with our Lenin en-
-ollment drive.
Another immediate task that lies
before us is the issuing of the Weekly
Young Worker in the immediate fu-
ture. Every member and sympathizer
must redouble their energies to collect
the necessary $4,000 and secure thou
sands Of new subscribers. With our
press transformed into a weekly, we
will have a powerful weapon to help
us reach the masses of young indus
trial workers. Every member to
work! The Weekly Young Worker
by March lst!"
The many tasks which lie before us
have been outlined by the national
executive committee in its program
of action printed in the Oct. Is issue
and again elaborated and amplified in
the national executive statement
printed in the Dec. Is issue Of the
Young Worker.
Altho the convention has been tenn
porarily postponed this only gives us
an opportunity to build our league
and make greater strides forward
prior to our third national convention.
Let every member step to his post
NOW and carry on the necessary
work which Is required to build our
league into a mass organization. The
discussion is closed. Now is the time
for action. To work, comrades.
