10,000 copies of a leaflet entitled "Brotherhood of Man" are tobe distributed in Birmingham by the Trades Vouncil. Tho loaflet is designed to pro= vide a constructive answer to the large amount of racial propaganda which is rife in Birmingham. In question and answer form it deals with 10 of the most commonly used slanders against the coloured people. It demonstrates that even if there were no coloured people at all in tho country that there would still be a housing problem and puts the alternative of housing being a social service and not a i. of profit-making.

It poses trade union membership and working class unity as the best means of protection in relation to redundancy etc. At the last meeting of the Council delegates placod their orders for copics and made arrangoments to distribute them.
