The daily worker., 1925-11-17

This was a magnificent turnout an
section meetings combined, both in nul
resented in the old branches. The
percentage was approximately 80 pei
cent and there is every indication
that many absent comrades will come
soon. The both English, Jewish and
Russian branches did especially well
in attendance.
In Section a number of shop nu-
clei were organized as follows:
Cooperative Restaurant, mem
bers; potential shop nucleus in an
other restaurant in the ..4........ food
nucleus, 3 members; in the ...............
clothing shop, potential nucleus; the
............ clothing factory, 3 members;
Chicago, Northwestern railroad shops
previously organized, 2 added, now
members.
From the character of the shops
and factories where shop and poten-
| tial shop nuclei were formed, there
/ is no doubt that other members are
working there. The Section 4 reor-
ganization meeting will reveal those.
shop Nuclei in other>Seetions Formed
A number of potential and actual
shop nuclei were found at Thursdays
meeting to belong to other sections.
These are as follows: In Section 1,
in ................. Hat Co., potential nu-
cleus; in ........ Clothing Co., A mem
bers; in the ........ department store,
3 members.
In Section 4, the ............ food indus
try potential nucleus; the ..............
Clothing Co., potential nucleus;
........... Clothing Co., potential nu-
cleus; the ...... Machine Co., poten-
tial nucleus; shop nucleus, made up
of group of comrades working close
together, 5 members; the ............
Clothing Co., potential nucleus; the
............ picture frame company, poten-
tial nucleus; .......... Electric Co,
members: the ........ Clothing Co.,
potential nucleus; Nucleus No. 8,
Clothing Co., added one, now 4 mem-
bers.
In Section 5, the .......... Studio Co.,
4 members.
If another member is found to be
working at the shops of the poten-
tial shop nuclei as is likely, these
will make up the regular shop nu-
clei; otherwise comrades will be at
ached to function with these units
Ten street nuclei having a total of
70 members were formed. Fifty
aembers, either working by them
elves in other sections or living in
other sections, will be transferred to
shop or street nuclei in other sec
tions.
1t is interesting and significant to
note that the vast majority of our
membership are working in shops,
mills, and factories by themselves.
Many are in comparatively small
shops and factories, but large num-
bers are in factories employing thou
sands Of workers. The smallness of
our party no doubt accounts in part
for the above situation. A task be-
fore our Communists working alone
in factories will be to develop and
, carry on agitation which will result
in drawing in new members in the
shops into the party and thus into
the shop nuclei.
