taneous agitation for the party 1900
members A similar agitation for the
Freiheit in Dusseldorf resulted in 1900
readers, and for the party 700 new
members. In Chemnitz the number OF
new party members was almost as
great as that Of the new readers, and
yet the Dusseldorf results, seen from
the standpoint of Communist mass
agitation, appear to us to be far better
than those Of Chemnitz. Why? The
Chmenitz Communists won for their
press solely such workers whose entry
into the party proved that they were
mature for membership But the Dus-
seldofer cast their nets far beyond
these confines, and gained as readers
many workers not yet ripe for the
Communist organization, but already
receptive for Communist agitation.
Both tasks are important. But the
work involved must be differentiated,
must be adapted in each case to the
category Of workers in question; the

understanding our aims, and who have
still to be drawn within our sphere
of influence.
Our Communist parties must devote
the greatest and most intense atten-
ton to the study of all these factors.
The same methods of organization
cannot be employed in every country

Decentralization (the amalgamation
of the many semi-vegetating weekly
and Sunday papers issued in the pro-
vinces, most of them far from being
Communist, into really Communist
daily papers), whilst in Germany the
reversed recipe might frequently be
applied with advantage. Every Com
munist Party should make 1t its en-
deavour to create organs guarantee
ing the use of the whole of the forces
at the disposal of the party for real
supervision, a real study, and a real
application of the extensive and vaIu-
able experience already gained.

provision for any later restoration.
Twelve-year olds who have finished
elementary schools may be regularly
