The communists organized in the Pany and the ward clubs would thus be presented with a vast field for concrete, revolutionary propaganda. The clubs, in agreement with the urban pany sections, should carry out a survey of the working-class forces in their area, and become the seat of the ward council of workshop delegates, the ganglion co-ordinating and centralizing all the proletarian energies in the ward.
The electoral system could vary according to the size of the workshops: the aim, however, should be to dect one delegate for every fifteen workers, divided into categories (as is done in English factories) and ending up, through a series of elections, with a committee of factory delegates representing every aspect of work (manual workers. clerical workers. technicians). The ward committee should also seek to incorporate delegates from other categories of workers living in the ward: waiters, cab-drivers. tramway men, railwaymen, road-sweepers, private employees, clerks and others.
The ward committee should be an expression of the whole of the working class living in the ward, an expression that is legitimate and authoritative, that can enforce a spontaneously delegated discipline that is backed with powers, and can order the immediate and complete cessation of all work throughout the ward.
The ward committees would grow into urban commissariats, controlled and disciplined by the Socialist Party and the craft federations.
