A new monthly pictorial, devoted to the Soviet Union, will be launched soon by the Friends of the Soviet Union, 175 Fifth Ave. This pic- torial, the first number of which will be off the press within a month, will be an effective instrument for popularizing in a vivid manner in- formation concerning the gigantic work of building Socialism in one- sixth of the earth’s territory. The new Soviet Union pictorial will also have as its purpose the mobilizing of the American workers and sympathizers in the fight to defend the Soviet Union from im- perialist attack and to secure its recognition by the United States.

Make Valuable Contacts for the Party Help the Party Reach the Masses Build the Party Into a Mass Party Reed the Writings of Lenin! ; Become a better fighter in the class strugglet All the burning questions of theory and tactics affecting the revolutionary movement must be studied in the light of Lenin’s teachings. To understand and assimilate the teach- ings of Lenin, the most illustrious pupil of Marx and Engels— is to be armed with the best weapons for the organization and leadership of the workers in their struggles against capitalism and for the proletarian revolution. A party based on the bedrock of Marxism-Leninism can- not be shaken from its moorings, cannot be misled, no matter how many attacks from within or without it may have to live through. In 1902 when the problem of establishing a central rev- olutionary organ in czarist Russia was being debated, Lenin wrote: “The mere functions of distributing a newspaper will help to establish real contacts.” We need real contacts in all industries if we are to build the Communist Party into a mass organization. The Daily | Worker must be distributed at factory, mine and mill, thous- | ands upon thousands of new readers must be secured—the Daily Worker must become the main contact instrument of the Party to build the Party.
