The immediate [period] has brought forward a number of [struggles] on issues involving women: the Ford strike over Equal Pay, the nurses at the House of Commons, the AEF negotiations, the [800] women in Manchester & Coventry over equal bonuses, the Irish sewing machinists demonstration for civil rights.
In October the National Joint Action Campaign for Women's Equal Rights (NJACWER) was established. Branches are being started all over the country. This organisation is planning a mass national demonstration for spring and is having [building] activities towards it. All this and more contribute to a growing development of militancy of this one third of the working class.
We feel that it is necessary to take advantage of the increased interest and activity around women's demands in industry and in the home, to establish a journal on this question. This journal will, we hope, bring socialist demands to this movement. We want to encourage women to use their power to further themselves and the cause of the working class as a whole. The journal will be radical, agitational, militant, and [public].
WHAT WE NEED
MONEY: We are going to produce this bulletin on an irregular basis when the situation warrants it, approximately every 2 months. It will be duplicated with a printed cover and will sell for sixpence. Financial backing will ensure you get your copy and that it will come out more frequently.
WRITERS! We want people who can write about things they know and/or who will send us useful articles for reprinting or even little articles that illustrate ideas, i.e. during the debate on the Save the Argyles petition, a Labour MP asked "How many women, children, and foreign tourists have signed it?"
