OVERLOADING LEADERS WITH FUNCTIONS
Jan Havelka, Instructor
Organization-Instruction Section
Central Committee
Communist Party of Czechoslovakia
At the second part of the annual membership meeting in March, the mem-
bers of basic organizations will elect new committees. Because of the
importance of these committees, the members of the election commissions
must consider each person proposed for committee membership from the stand-
point of whether he has &iy other functions which might interfere with the
performance of his new function.
There are still many officials who have as many as ten or 12 functions.
In some places it has become quite customary for a capable official to be
assigned all sorts of functions. This is encountered both in factories and
in villages. It is obvious that such an official cannot perform even one
of his functions properly.
For example, Comrade Rands, from Jihlava holds the following positions:
member of the presidium of the okres committee, chairman of the city com-
mittee, chairman of Sectional Factory Organization no 6, member of the com-
mittee of the factory organization, teacher of a circle in the Year of Party
Education in the factory organization, instructor of Local Organization No
38, instructor of Local Organization No 39, member of the unified national
committee, vice-chairman of the housing commission of the unified national
committee, member of the committee of the factory Sokol unit, and finally,
a pupil in the evening school.
Another example is Comrade Cermak from Kozli, who is chairman of the
local organization, chairman of .he local action committee, chairman of
the local extraordinary food commission, clerk of the factory organization,

CU jr Btid SAL
teacher of a basic group in the Year of Party Education, and instructor of
the okras committee for the local organization in the neighboring obec.
It is obvious that such overloaded persons cannot fulfill all their
tasks well. Such a badly managed cadre policy frequently results in poor work
by the organization in fulfilling the Five-Year Plan, in crop purchase and
quota assignment in rural areas, etc. The annual membership meeting offers
an opportunity for a correct solution of the problem of distribution of work
among the best members of the organization.
Therefore, in selecting members for the committees of basic organiza-
tions, it is necessary to decide which functions are best suited to them
and to relieve them from all other functions which they are unable to per-
form adequately. Attention must be paid not only to old, proven officials,
but also to promising young comrades who have not yet held any official
positions.
