On January 3 a crew of 15 volunteers from around the country began putting up walls in the new Pathfinder bookstore and showroom distribution center located in New Yorks Garment District. In the coming weeks the crew will start on plumbing, hanging lights, and finishing work on walls and floors. Additional volunteers are needed, including those with these skills.

Success in campaign to boost sales of Pathfinder!
Promoters of Pathfinder books scored a victory in the 2003 international campaign to step up sales of books on revolutionary politics by the publishing house. December sales alone totaled nearly $25,600, taking sales for the year to almost $242,700over the goal of $240,000. The campaign for the second half of 2003 aimed to achieve a 10 percent increase over the first six months of the year. Among Decembers highlights were sales at the Guadalajara International Book Fair (see article this issue), and substantial orders from schools and libraries. The Militant will be carrying fuller coverage of the campaign.
