Praise for NCLC HE National Council of Labour Colleges was founded in 1921 by the Labour Party, and various trade union and co-operative organisations to provide independent working class education for the British labour movement. H.A. Tulatz, Assistant General Secretary of the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions, attended a dinner held to honour the NCLC and its founders on 23rd January, 1965 in London. In a speech on this occasion, Tulatz underlined that quite a few NCLC trained trade unionists had co-operated in the educational work of the
International Confederation of Free
Trade Unions, and that this collab-
oration had. always been deeply
appreciated. He added that the
NCLC. had had the foresight to in-
clude international problems both
in its publications and courses early
in its history, thus helping to give
men a broader outlook. He paid
tribute to those who had built up
the NCLC, J. P. M. Millar, General
Secretary of the organisation, and
his wife Christine Millar, who
founded the Postal Courses Depart-
ment in 1923.
