its members having no 1880 membership books

activity carried on in this Section prior to and
after May Day. Only shop gate meetings were
held in preparation for May Day. The ex-
tremely low rate of dues-stamps selling in this
Seton during the past few months had much
to do with the bad organization in the Sec
ton.
Today new membership committee is func.
tioning. Outwardly at least considerable i'm
provement has been recorded. Yet the general
situation in this Section does not allow us to
entertain an optimistic view. The present
membership committees attitude, "better to is
sue duplicate books than to have members
without books" should be criticized. The lack
of cooperation between the committee and sec.
ton organizer must be ended. At the same
time, the entire section membership must be

Facing the Section Convention, Section five

more urgent problems. However, this is not
question only of Section five. Other Sections
OF our District do not function more efficient.
At the coming Section and District Conven-

Selling the Daily Worker at
Shop and Factory Gate

THE drive for new subscribers and readers
impetus after the great demonstrations for
May Day throughout the country. Distributing
rather than selling the Daily Worker at fac
tory gates has been the rule. How to per-
suade the workers who have heretofore been
receiving the Daily Worker free of charge to
pay the three cents copy, and ultimately to
subscribe to the only English militant working
class daily in the United States is a problem
which must be effectively solved
Comrades who go to factory gates to sell
Daily Workers for the first few weeks after
long period of free distribution must not be-
come too quickly discouraged. They must rec
ognze the canny reaction of most of the work
ers to be a natural one, and must show the
utmost patience toward these workers.
At all noon shop gate meetings, the chair
man must give some time to the explanation
of the Daily Worker Drive for new subscribers
and point out that the time has come when
the workers of the shop, who have had an OPP
portunity to read the Daily Worker for some
months, should themselves make it possible for
thousands of other workers to read this organ
of militant labor. The more this is emphasized
the easier it is for the comrades to sell the
Daily Workers.
Something that must be avoided is the dis
tribution free of charge of Daily Workers once
they are being sold regularly at the particular
shop gate. Even if comrades find themselves
with unsold copies, they must refrain from
handing out at the same gate these left-overs

ing to plan and systematic its work. The
Party unit meeting must deal with concrete
tasks. 1t must not be overburdened and piled
up with a thousand and one things at time.
The unit members must participate in the
planning of the work. All activities must be
carefully systematized, so that we don't report
failures at every meeting, but register con-
crete gains. Every task to be fulfilled by the
unit must be analysed and brought before it
in its political light With the above in mind
and functioning agitprop department we will
easily accomplish more politicalization of our
membership.
Into the Shops.
Now to build the Party does not mean only
to build the Party unit. Our party work must
not be narrowed down and remain in the
unit, but on the contrary it must go outside
and register concrete organzational results
for the Communist Party and the working
class. Therefore, building our Party, the Party
of the American working class, means pene-
trating the working class organizations, the
shops and factories, building of shop nuclei
in the various sections and especially building
our TU.U.L. unions. New militant unionism
is the most urgent need for the American
working class today. Yet we are meeting this
need in a very mechanical manner. In the
units we very abstractly appeal to our men,
bers to join the TU.U.L. and with this it
ends. Why can't we have in every section a
special apparatus, whose chief task will be to
popularize and build the T.U.UL. work and
alongside with it the shop nuclei work Such
an apparatus in every section is an urgent
need of the Party today.
Now, this problem of building the American
Communist Party is the outstanding problem
before every member. We must not take this
mechanically. We must not get "hot headed"
and think that we are already the bosses of
the situation, when we make certain victories
and even great victories. We must not be
adventurous. We must be sound and strategic
in our actions. We must always have in mind
that American capitalism, with all it's allied
forces and black reaction and fascism, is still
strong, and always aims to corrupt and crush
the working class movement. Therefore we
must build the Communist Party, penetrate
the broad masses Of the working class, organ
ize and train their iron battalions and through
their daily struggles move them against the
black capitalist system until its overthrow and
its replacement by the workers and farmers

The Need of the Hour

The answer is clear and simple. The Party,
as a whole, although eager to collect" ap-
plication cards, does not fully realize the ne
cessity of carefully following these application
cards through. The Party was too passive.
To it, or to some of the comrades at least the
neglecting of application cards does not ap-
pear to be criminal, as it really is.
In the New York District, Section five. stood
out most prominently in this respect For
some time in this Section there was no func-
tloning committee to handle application cards
and assign new members to units. Naturally,
the Section Organizer had to do the entire job
himself and unfortunately, in this case he did
the job very poorly. Apology or no apology,
excuse or no excuse, on April the new men,
bership committee came into office and the
Section Organizer of Section five handed over
to it piles of application cards and over fifty
new membership books still unassigned. What
did this mean? The Section Organizer kept
new member in his pocket" in order to pre-
vent them from doing revolutionary work This
is a criminal act. Again, in this same Sec
ton there were, up to few weeks ago. quite
number of "old" members without their 1880
books How did that come about? possible
explanation is that there were in this Section
too many members who did not think it "essen-
tiar' to "have Party book" and "to pay dues"
regularly. Of course, the Section Organizer
bears responsibility for not attending to these
things.
The members themselves are as much to
blame as the Section Organizer Imagine

(SectiOn 5, Bronx.)

WE are approaching the 7th Convention of
our Communist Party. Our c. C. in its
theses, has analysed and clarified before the
Party and the American working class, the
important tasks and problems that are facing
US. We, the broad ranks of the Party, must
study these analyses very carefully, and learn
how to intelligently, and usefully apply our
tactics in every branch of our activities, so
that develop into powerful mass move
ment that will we'll deserve it's name-the van
guard of the American working class.
The Possibilities Are Here.
The present situation of American and in
ternational capitalism with it's most sharp
inner and outer contradictions (wide unem-
ployment, great colonial revolts, feverish war
preparations, the growth and extension of the
Soviet system) affords our Party great pos
sibilities for real mass, extensive work. Pro-
vided, however, that we correctly and sys-
tematically adopt our theology and methods
of work towards the present situation. One
of the outstanding problems in the Party to-
day is the we'll known gap, which as cor
rectly estimated, is way too broad between
our organizational strength, and the mass
political influence that we exert. This means
that we must begin to build the Party ranks,
increase its quality and its membership.
In many cases the last membership drive
has failed to accomplish the necessary results,
that would correspond with the great energies
that we have put into it. Hundreds of
facts BRONX were lost to the Party because
of mechanical and tactless approach on the
part of some leading comrades with "hot
head" tendencies. No provisions, no attempts
even were made in the units to keep and as
simulate the new members. No functoning
agitprop department, etc.
Raise the Party Quality
To build the Party also means to raise its
quality. A lot has been spoken of polticalza-
ton of our unit meetings, and our section
activities. Up todate we must register in this
complete failure We find that at unit
meeting section representative who is sup
posed to guard the unit from unnecessary
proceedings and give suggestions to its work,
is very often hindering its work and harming
the Party as a whole. He proudly poses with
his UNRESTRICTED power" and very mechanic
ally burdens up the meeting with a thousand
and one tasks (Which of course result in the
accomplishment of no tasks), instead of help

THE need of the hour for our Party is the
Strengthening of the Party organization. Too
long has our Party suffered from the oppor-
tunst theory that Gin America revolution is
far ahead. All we must do now is discuss mat
ters." Too long has our Party suffered from
a petty factionasm which has tended to dis
rupt the Party organization and prevent its
orientation toward the masses Now, one year
after the open letter of the CT. we are, both
effectively and subjectvely, in better posi-
ton to strengthen the Party organization and
make it a real fighting representative of the
revolutionary working lass of America But
are we doing it?
No doubt in recent months we have made
progress. But to what extent? Our Party
still is not deeply rooted in the factories, which
should be our "fortresses." AS result we
suffer from Social Democratic" theology,
which still survives within the Party.
N. Y District An Example.
Take as an example the situation in the New
York District In the last Party membership
drive, New York District claimed to have
cruited over 1400 new members To date,
however, only 900 of these have been actually
assigned to units and have became active in
Party work. Where are the remaining 500?
Were these 500 kept out of the Party?

Another site for free distribution must be

is amply testified to by the response of the
workers on the following day: eve get em
