Pyongyang, June 19 (KCNA) -- Papers today dedicate editorials to the 45th anniversary of General Secretary Kim Jong Il's start of work at the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea.

Rodong Sinmun says his start of work at the C.C., the WPK was a historic event of the greatest significance as it provided a landmark of an epoch-making change in the struggle to strengthen the WPK and carry forward and accomplish the revolutionary cause of Juche.

The history of his leadership over the revolution is an immortal history in which he has strengthened the WPK into the party of President Kim Il Sung and the invincible revolutionary party steering the Songun revolutionary cause, an ever-victorious history in which he has firmly defended the country, the nation and the socialist cause with his unique Songun politics and a history of great creations and changes in which he has ushered in a brilliant heyday in building a great prosperous and powerful nation with the might of the single-minded unity of all the servicemen and people, the daily notes, and goes on:

Under his leadership the WPK has grown to be a militant party with the unitary idea and leadership fully ensured and strong in its organization and discipline, vanguard ranks of unshakable single-minded unity around its leader and an invincible party leading the revolution and construction to victory.

Under his Songun leadership the Korean People's Army has grown strong to be a powerful revolutionary army of Mt. Paektu capable of beating back any enemy at a single stroke and the DPRK has displayed its might as a matchless military power as all its parts are pervaded with the traits of attaching importance to military affairs and its sky, land and seas are invulnerable.

Under so difficult conditions the army and people of the DPRK have carried out in a big way such gigantic nature-harnessing projects as large-scale land realignment, gravity-fed waterway projects and power station construction and built many modern industrial establishments and production bases in different parts of the country. This is a shining fruition of the great patriotic Songun leadership of Kim Jong Il.

The DPRK's cause of building a thriving nation is sure to triumph thanks to the leadership of Kim Jong Il who is making a new history of great prosperity with the might of single-minded unity.

Minju Joson calls upon all people to dynamically advance under his Songun revolutionary leadership to open the gate to a thriving nation at an early date and brilliantly adorn with great victory of Korean-style socialism a-hundred-year history of Kim Il Sung's Korea shining with the Juche era.
