There ere many journals, periodicials and newspapers which, although they are not of general interest to sasialists, often contain items of news and comment which are important and should be brought before the readers of The Week . We refer particularly to the many trade and professional magazines which circulate to people engaged in perticular occupations. A magazine with voluntary editors and strictly limited funds cannot afford the time and money to read all of these, but each of our readers undoubtedly does read, in the normal course of their work, at least cue of these publications,
Tucked away in the pages of the Oil & Gas Journal or The Accountant, for example, may be items of political and sociological interest which indicate trends and ideas which may be directly relevant to the socialist struggle. It is often in the pages of such publications that kites are first flown and ideas begin to gain currency which later come to havea more general importe . :
If the function of The Week = to provide news and analysis that will assist the Left to organise itself in the day to day struggle - is to be fully met, then it is essential that our sources are wide and comprehensive. We want to build up an index of readers whose proximity to developments in a particular industry, trade, trade union or profession can help us to remain alert. If you subscribe to particular publications which you are sure often contain such items of wider interesteiion we.would like you to help us by sending occasional cuttings and information together with your comments and wre interpretation. We hope also that if we receive a request from another reader for more information, that you will let us refer this request to you.e However parochial or confined the publication may we hope you will help by filling in the form-below.
I:am a regular reader of the following publications and will be glad to’ help by providing a cutting service.
