At its last meeting on September 9th, the Nottingham City Labour Party passed, with only one vote against, the following resolution, which had been submitted by West Nottingham CLP:

"That the City Labour Party be called upon to initiate activity in support of the appeal for medical aid to Vietnam, and that its efforts be based upon an appeal to supporters of the Labour Party."

A collection at the meeting raised nearly £4 for the fund and subsequently, one of the wards in Nottingham - the first to meet after the resolution had been passed = made a donation of £3, Nottingham City Labour party has produced a special appeal on the lines of the resolution and it is to circularise every Constituency Labour Party in the country with this appeal. On the local front the collaboration of the trades council is being sought to ensure that all local trade unions respond,

All readers of The Week should ensure that when this is brought up at their Labour Party the response is generous. We should be pleased to hear of outcome of such efforts.
