Excerpt from The Great Initiative: Including the Story of Communist Saturdays
The amount of loading work done exceeded the average by about 270 per cent. The other kinds of work showed approximately the same increase.
In this way the holding up of pressing orders was avoided. Delays of from seven days to three months had occurred owing to shortage of labour and lax methods.
The work was done with faulty tools. It is true that these were not difficult to repair, but repairs held up whole groups from thirty to forty minutes.
The management was hard put to it to find sufficient work to keep the men going. The state ment of an old foreman that on a Communist Saturday as much work was done as was per formed in a whole week by ignorant and careless workmen may not have been much of an exaggeration.
As only supporters of the Soviets took part in this work, and as a large accession to the number is expected on future Saturdays, when other sections follow the example of the Communist workers of the moscow-kasan Railway, I will now give some details from local reports.
