Bolshevik Education of Young Communists

The Great Patriotic War has placed the highest demands on the political and moral qualities of the Soviet citizen. The education of young communists in the spirit of Lenin-Stalin Bolshevism — in courage, unwavering loyalty, discipline, and a readiness to act — has become a vital task.

Komsomol organizations, party bodies, factory and plant committees, and Red Army political departments all play a leading role in shaping the youth as fighters and builders of socialism. The newspaper praises young communist workers who have shown heroic labor feats in both the rear and at the front.
